Identified by Neighbor Assistant Royal Canadian Mounted Police Inspector G. Curleigh said Clark shot himself in the forehead. Clark was id entified by a neighbor. Police said the rifle was the one used to kill Clark's wife, Margaret, 36, their four young children, George Anderson, a farm hand, and William Olah, 20, a Can adian sailor. An inquest was planned today in this farming community, 16 miles from the Clark farm. A Royal Canadian Air Force plane spotted the body of the popular social credit legislator some 36 hours after Canadian Mounties on horseback and foot began their search for Clark. Police offered no motive but Clark was reported to have had a nervous breakdown last year. Neighbors said he had "acted strangely" since his return from an election campaign last week. A neighbor, G. G. Parrott, dis covered five of the seven vic tims dead Sunday when he went to Clark's yellow farmhouse for a friendly chat. Olah, a former pupil of Clark's when the legis lator was a teacher, died several hours later at a hospital. One of the children died on the way. Parrott said there was no sign of a struggle. The bodies of the children, Jeanna. 8, Ross, 7, Ann, and Linda, 4, had been placed neatly in a row.

The an-1 cient Mayan city of Tikal in the jungles of Guatemala will be . explored and partially restored, I the University of Pennsylvania announced. ; "Dr. Froelich G. Rainey, direc-, tor of the university museum, i said that agreements have been made with the Guatemalan gov-' ernment for the university to be gin the project sometime this year. The city is deep in the rain forests of the Peten region. It has been a "ghost city" for about a millenium and it was occu pied for 2,000 to 3,000 years up to about the 10th century, A.D. It was rediscovered about a cen tury ago but was accessible only by mule-back until the Guate malan government built a near-; by landing strip about five years ago. University explorations place Tikal at the center of the Mayan civilization. Rainey said that the univer sity and the Guatemalan govern ment intend to make the city a Mecca for scholars of American civilization and for tourists and economics developers. Five shrine-like temples domi nate the city center one of them is as tall as a 20-story building. Pyramidal platforms are topped by exotic carvings The central part of the city is re splendent with causeways and graded roads comparable to modern expressways. OPEN TOMORROW UNTIL 9 P.M.

'Silent Sound' To Eliminate Problems Chicago (U.R) A new "silent ' sound" machining process will eliminate many manufacturing problems, an expert says. Jack Welch, manager of the Machine Tool Division of Shef field Corp., discussed the new technique at the annual conven tion of the American Society of Tool Engineers. Welch said the ultrasonic ma chining process operates on somewhat the same process as an air hammer used for breaking concrete. But instead of air pres sure, the generating force is sound waves, so high "they are inaudible to the human ear. "Difficulties encountered in cutting brittle metal with old processes have been practically eliminated," Welch said. "Gen erally speaking, the more brittle the material, the faster will be its rate for cutting. 122 EAST MAIN ST. Daily's U-Drive Medford Airport Wednesday Night Is Family Night ...
