leaky Pipe Demands
Fast Action, Not Panic
By MR. FIX
Newspaper Enterprise Attn.
A leaky water pipe means time
for ' fast action, but not panic.
- Tfrst thing to do is to turn
"off-the water. There may be a
" - Valve for that line alone, If not,
''tart off the main water supply.
1 " ' With the pressure off, you have
r lifle for an emergency repair. -Best
method, and one that will
last indefinitely, is the use of a
special pipe clamp made for Just
this purpose. The pipe clamp
consists of two metal halves
that fit around the pipe. The
inside of the metal is lined with
rubber. Nuts and bolts draw the
clamp tight once it is in place.
; If you don't have a pipe clamp
on hand and the time Isn't appro
priate to run to the hardware
store for one (these things always
happen at night or on Sundays
or holidays), then look around
tlio house for materials with
Vhich you can improvise.
. An old piece of garden hose
Is an excellent substitute. Split
it and place it around the pipe.

This can be held In place with
a hose clamp. You may need the
size used for radiator hose. If
you lack a clamp, use wire
twisted tightly around the patch.
A generous use of friction tape
is another method. But since the
tape is porous, use some other
patching material with it. A piece
of rubber cut from an old inner
tube or other rubber item is
best used by placing it directly
over the break. Then wind tape
or string around this patch very
tightly. Wrap plenty of tape
around the area.
tacking a piece of rubber, just
use plenty of tape in many layers
going in both directions.
Remember, that though this
sort of patch may not be com
pletely waterproof, it will stop
the spray until you can make a
permanent repair.
A leak that occurs near a Joint
may indicate that the joint needs
repair. Threaded fittings must be
taken apart and coated with pipe
compound before being put back
together.. A soldered joint will
have to be taken apart
and cleaned of all the old solder.
A bad spot in a run of copper
pipe is cut out and rejoined with
a copper sleeve that fits over
both ends.
If the pipe in your house is
steel or galvanized iron, cutting
out the bad part and joining
the parts together will require
threading the ends and joining
them with a union. If you can
remove both pieces of pipe you
can take it to a hardware store
to be threaded.
Unless you're an expert, It's
best to call in a plumber to make
those permanent repairs.

Half Of Ransom Remains Missing
10 Years After Green I ease Crime
By JOSEPH CARTER
And WILLIAM COOK
KANSAS CITY. Mo. (UPI) -
Ten years ago in September, a
B-year-old boy was kidnaped and
for nine anxious days the world
watched and hoped while mas
sive efforts were made to obtain
his safe release.
But Bobby Greenlease, It later
was learned, was murdered about
an hour after he was abducted
the victim of a depraved, money-
hungry couple.
The world was stunned. Rea
soned newsmen filed their stories
when complete details were di
vulged Oct. 7, 1953. , Then they;
went to private places and wept.
The kidnaping for ransom, a
crime more frequent in the Unit
ed States than elsewhere, rocked
Europe. Americans were up in
arms and tile government acted
quickly. On Dec. 18, less than
three months after the crime.
Carl Austin Hall, 34, and Bonnie
Brown Heady, 41, were executed
at the Missouri state prison.
Why such a crime?
It was the same motive that in
spired the Lindbergh kidnaping
21 years earlier money: $600,0001
85 pounds of $10 and $20 bills.
Officers recovered half the ran
som that Mr. and Mrs. Robert
C. Greenlease vainly paid for
their son. Even today, a decade
later, about $300,000 remains
missing.
Even to the gas chamber, Hall
denied knowledge about the miss
ing money. Many were suspected
but the money its serial num
bers known never was found In
substantial quantities.
Home Adaptable To Terrain
Basically, the home offers liv
ing on three levels. Because of
its design, you tend to identify it
with a rolling site. While the home
can be adapted to rolling terrain,

The kidnaping occurred at 11
a.m., 10 years ago, at the
French institute of Notre Dame
de Sion, where Bobby was a stu
dent. Mrs. Heady, a drunken di
vorcee, appeared at the school
where she identified herself as
the boy's aunt. She said Mrs.
Greenlease had been stricken and
she had been sent for the child.
An unwittine taxicab driver
took Mrs. Heady and Bobby to a
midtown drug store. He later re
called that in that drive of half a
dozen blocks, in which Bobby lost
his last chance for life, the talk
was of ice cream.
Hall, who had squandered a
small, inherited fortune and
turned to armed robbery when it
was gone, was waiting in a station
wagon at the drug store parking
lot. .
They drove across the state
line into Kansas. There, in the
browning stubble of a wheat field.
Hall tried to choke the boy but
the rope was too short. A shot
in the head finally killed him.
Bobby's body, wrapped in a
plastic sheet, w as hauled to Mrs.
Headv's neatly-kept home at St.
Joseph, Mo., where the pair
buried it in a grave of quicklime.
Mrs. Heady camouflaged the
freshly - turned earth with chry

would be about all he could

The couple drove to St. Louis
and rented an apartment. Hall
then left his drunken paramour
and went on an orgy and spend
ing spree. Acting on a tip from
a taxicab driver who reported the
free spending fare, St. Louis de
tective Lt. Louis Shoulders ar

lowed and convictions under the
Lindbergh kidnap law were

Shoulders was praised for his
police work, then questioned

Hall and Mrs. Heady wrote let

of death-row kisses and did not
complain about their fate.
Hall was the son and sole heir
of a plcasantnn. Kan., attorney
who left him $200,000 which he
spent on high living. He was a pa

primary level, there is a roomy
garage and utility room.

to the home's grade level areas
a broad expanse of living space
gained by combining living room
with dining area.
Between the dining area and
family room is the kitchen. Un
crowned and with plenty of coun
ter and cabinet space, this home
maker's workshop is a model of
efficient planning. Meal prepara
tion space is distinct from the
cleanup area but a pro
jecting counter brings them to a

the family room.
Here's where family activity
will center. A rear exit opens
out to the backyard encouraging
construction of the future terrace.
Access to the utility room and

kitchen, a feature certain to be
appreciated by the homemaker
Housed in the utility area is a
laundry area and heating plant.
The sleeping area is effectively
removed from the remainder of
the house. Access is gained from
the dining area. The ornamental
iron railings used on the modified
stairway are interesting.
To avoid any traffic compli
