Get Leads In Percy Slaying CHICAGO UPI — Police followed two promising leads today in the baffling murder of Valerie Percy, 21 - year - old daughter of Republican senatorial candidate Charles H. Percy. Miss Percy was found stabbed and beaten to death in her bed in the family’s suburban Kenilworth home Sept. 18. Despite an intensive investigation, police are still without a suspect, motive or murder weapon. One of the new leads which developed Wednesday was the disclosure that authorities had found a black wool glove with leather palm on the Percy estate the morning of the murder. The wool of the glove was reported to be similar to the black wool fibers found in the second floor bedroom where Miss Percy was murdered and on a slashed screen door through which the killer is believed to have crept into the home. The glove was small, and was for the right hand. The mate has not been found. The other lead authorities were following today involved a special kind of hammer known as a “tie marking haunmer.” It is normally used to mark lumber and railroad ties, and is seldom found outside industrial plants and lumber yards. Cook County coroner Andrew Toman was attempting to determine whether such a hammer could have been used to shatter Miss Percy’s skull. The surviving members of the family remained secluded in an out-of-state hideaway, and It was not known when they would return.

Indiana Traffic Claims 3 More Three more deaths boosted Indiana’* 1966 traffic fatality toll today to at least 1,147 compared with 1,057 a year ago. Harry L. Mullett, 31, Peru, was killed Wednesday night when his car skidded at high speed into the path of a big truck on U.S. 24 nine miles east of Logansport and burst into flames from the impact.

Wall Street Chatter

NEW YORK UPI —Bache A Co. says it sees a trading range of 840-760 in the Dow Jones industrial average holding sway with the “performance” stocks continuing to assume market leadership. The firm says third quarter results will undoubtedly be an important factor in shaping the near term course of individual stocks. Thomson A McKinnon says it appears that the dynamic move which characterized the averages in the past several weeks should now be less frequent as the market searches for a solid bottom and prudent selection of attractively valued stocks can be recommended Kenneth Ward of Hayden, Stone Inc., says that in this highly divergent and discriminating market it seems much more realistic to maintain a flexible attitude than to be unequivocally bullish or bearish or pay attention to the performance of the distorted averages.

A local Teenager's View By Janet Staub As I was walking down the street a question struck my mind — where do shoes come from? A little research led me to this answer. The first shoes were probably pieces of hide or braided grass held to the foot by leather cords. This shoe, the simplest kind of sandal, is still worn in warm countries. They are even worn in these parts during the summer. The pampootie of the island fishermen of western Ireland is an example. Sandals like this are also worn in China and Japan. The moccasin was worn in colder countries. This was made by tying a baglike covering over the foot with a string. Many early tribes covered their legs with rough skins, held in place by cords tied to their sandals. The earliest boot was made by joining the bottom of this leg covering with the sandal sole. In early days, shoes showed the rank or wealth of the wearer. This was true among the Greeks, Romans, and the early Egyptians. Shoes are made in three main parts: upper, sole, and the heel. The components of these parts vary with style and construction type. Shoes come in many styles such as the sneaker, high heel, and the oxford. A type of shoe which will probably become popular in the coming months is the snow shoe. BY THE WAY: Plainfield will become very familiar with the shoe Friday as they get stomped by the Tiger Cubs!

FBI Is Given Murder Evidence CINCINNATI UPI — Hamilton County authorities will turn over to the FBI today evidence collected at the scene of the slaying of a family of three. They hope fingerprints will provide a clue to the slayer of Gerald Bricca, 28; his wife, Linda, 24, and daughter, Debbie, 4. Their stabbed bodies were discovered Tuesday night in bedrooms of their tri-level home in suburban Bridgetown in the west edge of Cincinnati. The evidence includes the victims’ clothing, samples of hair found in the house, bedsheets and bloody towels. Officers said the murder weapon may have been a carving knife which apparently is missing from the house. Lt. Herbert Vogel said robbery may have been a partial motive. No money was found in the house and an empty billfold was on the bed near the bodies of the couple.
