Views Flying Auto Certain In Future One Man Killed In First Model Crash WILBERFORCE. Ohio (UP) — “It is just a matter of time.” That is how Dr. Lewis A. Jackson. student personnel services director at Central State College, views the future of the flying automobile which he is pioneering. Jackson called the crash Sunday i of his first model, “Versatile I.” “quite a setback” but he said he is building another. Edgar Parsley, 41, was killed and the Versatile I destroyed when 1 the little craft plummeted into trees after it had logged a total of 15 • hours flying time. Jackson said Parsley was not a

commercial pilot and was not familiar with the craft although he had helped develop it. “We asked him not to go up,” said Jackson, “but just to taxi it. But "he took it up, feeling that it was easy to fly." The professor said he hopes to get financial backing on the second project. He financed the first one alone. The craft converted fronr a plane to a car in a matter of seconds? with the wings folding into the sides of the obdy. It was powered by a propeller both on the ground and in the air. Jackson predicted flying cars will be a common sight in the near future and pointed out that modern cars "already travel at speeds faster than necessary for a light plane to take off.” He said airborne autos should be safer, too. .He. believed, they would be involved in fewer accidents than conventional cars.

Begin New Search For Murder Clues Authorities Quiz Victim's Mother CHICAGO <UP> — Police, armed with a detailed description of articles Judith Mae Andersen, 15, was carrying the night she was slain and her body dismembered, today began a fresh search for clues in the case. Police obtained the detailed list Monday night from the victim's mother. Authorities had been unable to question her at length before because of her distraught condition. Mrs. Andersen said that among the items her daughter carried were an opaque cigaret case given to her by a boy friend, and a dark blue wallet. Judith Mae’s nude and butcheed torso was found Aug. 22 in an oil drum floating in Lake Michigan. Her head and arms were found in another oil container two days later. She had disappeared from her home Aug 16. Despite one of the most intensive searches in Chicago’s history, police have been unable to find any trace of the victim's clothes or other personal possessions. The widespread hunt Monday turned up a ,32-caliber revolver discovered in a garbage can. Judith Mae had been shot four times in the head before her body was dismembered. However, a ballistics check of the gun failed to match with the bullets taken from the victim. Meanwhile, a search broadened today for a missing Loyola University coed who disappeared last Wednesday while returning home with about $250 she had withdrawn from a bank to pay her school tuition. 'Police visited North Side taverns and student hangouts in the vicinity of the Loyola campus in the hopes someone might have seen the missing girl; Marcia Horaff, 21. Marcia’s parents said they believed their daughter had met with foul play. They said she was happily looking forward to returning to school Sept. 23. and had no reason to leave home voluntarily.
