Bodies in Wells

BELLEVILLE, ILL.,. Dec. 9 (P.
The mysterious disappearance
of a Lebanon. Ill. couple Is days
ago was solved today with the
signed confession of a 200-pound
poultry worker who led officers
to the bodies.
Harold Smith. 80. a carpenter,
and his wife, IS, each had been
shot through the head and there
was evidence they each had been
savagely beaten, authorities said.
In the statement he signed to-
day. 34-year-old Fillmore Young
a Negro of Carlyle, ILL.,, claimed
he does not know why he am
pushed the couple in their iso-
lated home.
James r. Schoonoyer, a deputy
sheriff here. said authorities are
convinced Young does know the
motive and just isn't telling the
full story.
Officers expressed hope an
autopsy will disclose whether
Mrs. Smith was raped. Young
denied that he did. Young led
authorities to separate wells
where he had concealed the
bodies some distance from the
scene Of the Staying.
Preliminary examination Of
the bodies indicated that a
broken tooth and denture found
in the blood-spattered home
came from Mr.. Smith. Mr.,
Schoonever said. One Of his
teeth had been knocked out. The
Smiths dentist previously had
said the tooth and denture APP
parently came from some other
person.
Young. acquitted Of numbering
his wife five years ago. was calm
and impassive when arrested by
Sheriff Dan Parker Of Clinton
County and later brought here
for questioning. He claimed he
did not know the Smiths when
he stopped at. their modest home

silence. There was no siren. There were no
voices. The inevitable crowd that he d always
seen at accidents was missing. Evening dusk
was turning to darkness There was no help
The only sign up there on the highway was
the broken guardrail and tire marks in the
shoulder of the road The car was hidden from
view on the ledge. Passing motorists could
just as easily assume that it had been broken
yesterday or the day before. or. for that mat
ter, week ago.
IHE only hope was the Highway Patrol,
and that could mean hours of waiting The
help that he was praying for was mythical,
part of the foolish terror, wishful thinking of
the most cowardly order - wanting somebody
else to do for him what he was afraid to do for
himself
Norton looked back at his wife - at her
pale lips, at her hand that was turning blue

below the tourniquet. If you were any other
man. he thought, it would be a simple thing to
make the climb - just hang on and don't look
down. Then he looked up the embankment
and it whirled terrifyingly in his vision. A
sickening knot formed in his stomach Help
would have to come in minutes or it would
never come at all for his wife
He struggled to draw his weakened limbs
out of the car. Got to get her to the hospital
in time" he heard himself say. Sweat broke

out on his face and he swore loathing himself
- man made helpless by fear. He was no
kind of man at ALL
Frantically, now, he fought the weakness,
trying to lift himself out of the window of the
overturned car. But he couldn't do it. His
fingers slipped gradually away from the edge
of the door frame and he finally sank back
down into the car beside his wife. He lay very
still then and moved only his eyes.
He was trapped and helpless inside his own

reaching out, clutching at nothingness.
Then reality came back Norton reached
out and touched his wife's face In that
moment he realized for the first time in his life
how much he loved this dark-haired womass
Touching her like that did something for
him - Gained him. Suddenly he was no
longer concerned with whether he would fall
or not. He was sure he would - that was
crazy. positive conviction. He had always
known ever since he'd been a boy that if he
tried to climb anything he would die II was
inevitable DEATH Suicide
But at least he could try to do that for her.
That was the least any man could do for the
woman he loved. Make the gesture Die.
They would say he tried She would know he
loved her. That was enough.
SUDDENLY then he felt quite free - now that
he had made up his mind. After all. he
thought. everybody dies. He looked up tie
sheer embankment. There was nothing ter
nfying about it now. 1t was only an obstacle
- an unliving thing that stood between his
wife and life
His jaw set his eyes widened Slowly he
moved his arms and legs. straining at the par
alyzing weight of his body. drawing himself
out of the car. He clutched an edge of rock:
slowly, carefully. he found a foothold and he
started up. He didn't look down.
There were times when consciousness almost
seemed to leave him, but still he was aware of
hanging on. of clawing. of reaching up for a
higher hold. There was the gritty taste of dirt
in his mouth and there was the numbness of
all the muscles in his body. which seemed to
be moving now only because he wiIled it, Ee
knew when he reached the highway, because
he saw the headlights of an approaching car.
A man walked up to him. and Norton
pointed down the embankment al the wreck
My wife's down there. " he said; and when he
turned and pointed down into the chasm, he
realized that he hadn't fallen. The fear was
gone. Then suddenly his strength left him.
SLOWLY out Of the blur of Inconsistencies,
John Norton became aware of the antiseptic
odor OF the hospital, and there was Dr.
Gregorys face --- the graying. close-cropped
hair, the glasses and the smile The smile -
he liked that. Gregory wouldn't smile unless
Helen were all right
My wife -" He hardly had the strength
to say ii. Gregory put restraining hand on
his shoulder
"Helen's all right" the doctor said "Shc
got a nasty bump on the head. but it S nothing
serious. And your tourniquet worked fine on
her arm" Suddenly then, Norton relaxed,
and he could feel all his strength going. He
didn't feel ashamed now of his weakness. He
had whipped the fear in his mind He Just felt
sleepy, and he didn't give damn what he was,
because whatever he was, he had saved what
he loved
SO you went out and climbed your noun
tain, Gregory said. He was grinning. And
for the rest Of your life you can laugh at it,"
Norton grinned back at the doctor and
nodded Yeah" he said, II took the cure,
but il still amaZes me that didn't fall Won

lHE story has gotten out that
she was spotted there by a talent
scout while she was riding a BIZ

The truth is she hired an agent.
This was when every studio
was looking for another Marilyn
Monroe. Miss Novak had the
physical qualifications. In addi-
ton, she has a Marilyn-type
voice - whispery, like an opera
singer with laryngitis.
She also possesses infinite
good nature, a trusting DISPOSE
ton and no burning ambition.
Of such stuff are present-day
stars made.
Be that as it may. Miss Novak
has clicked. She has graduated
from bit parts to lead roles -
her latest is the top feminine lead

complaint - not enough closet
space. Clothes are her only ex-
travagance.
Miss Novak is a girl of incred-
IDLY simple tastes. She doesn't
want a car "a bike will do, or
she prefers to walk.

says. The girls sing. dance and

Kim Novak was happy to
ride to the studio on q
bicycle. Now that she's
a star. she has to walk
TT WAS foregone conclusion
Il that Kim Novak was headed
for stardom when Harry Cohn,
head of Columbia Pictures. took
her bike away from her.
That is to say, he issued an
order that she was not to ride
the bike to work any more. Too
valuable a piece of property -
the starlet, that is, not the bicycle
to risk in the dangerous Sum-
set Boulevard traffic.
Miss Novak used to ride to
work from the Studio Club -
only eight blocks away. Now she
walks. The Studio Club is oper-
ated by the Y.W.C.A. for young
girls in show business who can't
afford fancy quarters. 1t is run
much like a college sorority
house, with strict rules about
male visitors.
One COnaplains
ALL this is reasonable enough
for aspiring young talent in
Hollywood without their
mamas, but what is the attrac-
ton for Kim Novak - a hit on
both the screen and TV? She's
had her option lifted twice, with
raises, and could surely afford
better.
The answer is that Miss Novak
