service applicants who might
show up in the Senator's
Office.
There was another sheet,
"for members of Congress, "
explaining the questions on

Academy in Colorado.
Senator Frear was not in
his Office. He was expected
back the next day from his
home in Dover, Del. De-
feated on election day, he is
what is called a lame duck, I"
an expression which first
cropped up in 1863. Like the
members of his staff, he will
be on the payroll until jan
uary 8 of next year.
His chief administrative
assistant, Robert Kelly, AZ,
reminisced. He looked out on
Delaware avenue past some
oak trees.

gether," he said, speaking of
the Senator, "12 years ago.
Just after we got in and were
looking around a man came
in and announced he was

Wisconsin. His office was just
down the hall. Nobody knew

of st. Anthony's Parish. The
priest received a phone call at
the hospital to tell him Michael
had been found dead.
He took Mrs. Condetti, the
former Joan Smithers, who
is British-born, to the st.
Anthony's chapel at Twelfth
and Monroe streets NE, where
they prayed together.
Father Returns
Then, back in the Condetti's
apartment in Brentwood, Fa-
ther Murphy gave Mrs. Con-
detti the grim news.
Mrs. Condetti was still sob
bling when Mr.. Condetti came
in from his fruitless search of
the neighborhood. The father
gave a poignant cry and burst
into tears. He was still crying
when he got into the car to
identify his son.
Michael was repeatedly last
seen about 4::30 pm. Monday
by three residents of the neigh
borhood. He had arrived home
from st. Anthony's School,
where he was in the second
grade. about $3.50 pm. and
asked his parents if he could
go to a nearby variety store in
the Brentwood Village shopping
center to look at some school,
book bags.

fire destroyed a large stock of
wallpaper and paint on the
third floor of the building.
Neither he nor Harry r. Jaffe,
partner in the firm, would
estimate the damage.
1T was very extensive" Mr..
Jaffe said.
The fire, which apparently
had smoldered most of the
night, was confined to the top
Of the building. But first and
second-floor Offices were dam
aged by water.
The building also houses the
Jaffe Construction Co. and on
the second floor a small suite
of Offices marked JMA, Inc.
Firemen and others in the
building said they are Central
Intelligence Agency Offices.
However, a man standing in
the JMA Office declined to say
what the company does. He
acknowledged that they were
Government offices. He referred
all questions to a Government
telephone exchange and extern
sion number.
A young woman who answered
at that number refused to iden-
tify the Government depart
ment. After a l0-minute wait
she put a man ON the phone
who denied that this telephone
exchange was the GAS and
disclaimed knowledge of the
Offices downtown.
Another man who left the
JMA Office insisted he knew
nothing about them. He got
into a black Government car
and drove away.
The fire was discovered about
5 am. by two policemen who
drove down the alley next to
the building IN a squad car. A
window on the third floor blew
out when they were passing.
Sixth Battalion firemen had
extinguished the blaze by 7 am.

Tenth street address said she
saw a boy she believes was
Michael playing with two other
boys on the second floor.
II said, Honey, what are
you doing?'" Mrs. Harlow told
a reporter. HE said, Just play
ing He was a pretty child
When I saw the picture in the
papers it was the same as II
he was looking at me again.
When Michael failed to re-
turn home from his trip to the
store, Mr.. and Mrs. Ccndetti
called police and reported his
absence. Hundreds of Metro
politan policemen, many OF
them off duty, began all in
tensive search of the nelghbor-
hood.
Vacant Spaces Checked
They probed a number OF
vacant buildings in the 20-block
area surrounding the Condetti
home. They looked in base
ments and sewers. They en-
listed the aid of railroad police
to check boxcars in the nearby
railway yards.
They used trained police
dogs of the Canine Corps which
first had been given Michael's
scent from some of his clothing
And yesterday, a large number
of pictures of the boy were
distributed to police officers
engaged in the search.
Yesterday afternoon the
search for Michael ended and
the manhunt began for his
killer.

Condetti to Providence Hospital,
where she was given a sedative.
While there he received a phone
call from the police that the
little boy with the soft green

to visit st. Anthony's chapel,
where Mrs. Condetti prayed.
Father Murphy had not told
Mrs. Condetti.
AS she walked into the living
room, a. kerchief over her brown

and a soft smile on her face.
Father Murphy led her to the
bedroom and her sister-in-law,
Mrs. Kenneth Wilkinson, who
had been staying with the chill

1t was at that moment that

apartment heard the mothers
anguished sobs.
In the living room filled with
mementos of Michael cigar

and a tractor-no one spoke.
Michael's 12-year-old brother
Christopher, who came in with
his mother, sat in his Boy

eyes that did not cry until
later. He went to join his
mother.
Mr.. Wilkinson, the boys

The
Rambler
Sees q
Side of Politics
By JOHN McKEhWAY


The custodian of the Old
Senate Office Building had
provided the trash basket
and it had probably been
used before. It was as big
as a bathtub, even resembled
one, and had wheels.
Members of the staff of
Senator J. Allen Frear, Dem
ocrat of Delaware, were care
fully emptying the files and
throwing the trash in the
wastebasket.
There was, in the trash, a
list of dignitaries who would
stand in the receiving line at
a Kennedy-Johnson rally on
October 10 in Delaware.
There was a press release
from the National Commit
tee for a Representative Con-
greSs," which announced the
organization was indorsing
Senator Frear's candidacy
for reelection.
There was a five-page "sug-
gested speech-or, the basis
for several speeches." from
the research division of the
Democratic National Com
mittee.
There was a booklet, put
out by the Coast Guard, en-
titled "Recreational Boating
Guide"

A two-day search for Michael
drew help from everyone in
the area. Not more than 20
minutes before Mrs. Condetti
returned from the hospital,
there was a knock on the door
and a child's voice said hest
family, I'VE were looking. He
was wearing black shoes with
little ridges on them? We found
some footprints and a little tin
plate"
Mrs. Wilkinson walked out of
the bedroom to get a glass of
water and pill for Mrs. Con-
detti AS the front door burst
open and Mr.. Condetti, who
had been searching for his
son, came in.
Father Is Told
He was told and there was a
loud cry. Tears trickled through
the hands he held to his face
as he walked toward the bed
room.
He came out to ask, "How?
Where is he?" Mr.. Condetti
started to make a phone call
He could not talk.
! Mr.. Wilkinson and another
priest, the Rev. Paul Gozaloff
of st. Francis de Sales Parish,
put their arms around him.
There was a half-hour wait
and then the police came and
Mr.. Condetti. Mr.. Wilkinson
and Father Gozaloff left to
identify the body.
At the Chambers Funeral
Home in Riverdale, Md, the
father waited IA minutes be-
hind a closed door and then
went to see the body.
Two minutes later, Mr.. Con.
detti came out. He was sob.

the suite of offices. Mr.. Kelly,
who does not know what he
might do next, said it will
take a "good-sized truck" to
carry the pictures, reports,
letters, memos and speeches
to the Senator's home. The
Office must be cleaned out
before Inauguration Day.
The Senator will be re-
membered. He had a desk
down front in the Senate.
He was bouncy and affable
and brisk. He always wore
a bow tie. Whenever they
called for his vote, he would
holler at the top of his voice
because he felt it was a "ges-
ture of decision and the peo-
pie in the galleries ought to
be able to hear it," He voted
that way for II years, and
after other Senators stopped
initiating him.
Hes decided to go to'the
NATO meeting in Paris"
said Mr.. Kelly. He'll be the
only one there who didn't get
reelected. It'll be tough"
"It's sort of ironic," he con-
tinued. Were getting re-
quests from Delaware for
inauguration tickets. You
know the Democratic slate
won, except for Senator
Frear. And back in 1854 he
won by a record majority, by
10000 votes"
Out in the offices, the sec
retaries were going through
the mail and the files and
answering telephones and
one was putting in the latest
chapter of a bound file of
newspaper clippings called
"Frear's Years"
One wall of the Senator's
Office is covered with pic

 Of all the mothers who will be taking bows May 9th, none has shown more stamina than the little old lady who has been put ting children to sleep for more than 200 years.
 But Mother Goose may have had more on her mind than nonsense rhymes. In fact, she may have been taking pot shots at some of the key figures of her day. "Rock-a4bye baby on the tree top" sounds harmless enough. But the lul1aby-popular during the time of. James 1 of England-might have been a joking reference 10 James .shaky hold on his throne.
 World Book Encyclopedia aug. gests that the little boy who sat in a corner eating his Christmas pie was really an Fn9lish steward sent to London with a pie for the kinq. Tn the days of Henry VIII, important papers often were baked in pies, and this particular one supposedly contained title deeds for several Enrl;sh estates. The greedy Jack Horner, however, stole the kings "pluIn" "-the deed to an estate that had once belonged to the Church of England.
