Dismembered Woman
Found In Suitcase On
New York Sidewalk
NEW YORK, UP) — A suitcase
left on a Manhattan sidewalk
yielded the torso of a convicted
prostitute, sending 100 police
Monday on a search for clues in
the upper Broadway haunts she
frequented.
Police were seeking a killer
with a knowledge of anatomy in
the slaying of Kay Gibson, 33, a
street walker and narcotics addict
who reportedly was a graduate
nurse and served in the armed
forces in World War II.
Her torso and dismembered
right arm were found early
Sunday in an expensive leather
suitcase on a sidewalk not far
from the Columbia University
campus. Several hours later her
dissected legs were found nearby
on top of a trash can.
Three fingers from her left
hand and her head were missing
after an all - day search of the
neighborhood Sunday by a spe
cial police detail.

U.S. Troops Block
S. Korean Threats
To Indian Soldiers
PANMUNJOM, W) — American
troops and tanks moved Saturday
to block South Korean threats of
armed attack against Indian
troops while the war prisoners re
patriation commission asked the
Communists to start interviewing
reluctant war prisoners tomorrow.
The American troops took up
positions near Panmunjom facing
southward to head off possible
South Korean movement toward
the 5,500 Indian soldiers guarding
prisoners who refuse to go home.
The show of armed might came
amidst these other developments:
1. The Neutral Nations Repatri
ation Commission (NNRC) ex
pressed dissatisfaction with the
Allied timetable for building “ex
planation” centers and asked for
the second time that the Commu
nists be allowed to take over the
job.
2. The commission disclosed it
has received two letters contain
ing “unconcealed threats” from a
South Korean government leader.
Indian Lt. Gen. K. S. Thimayya
said in a letter to the U.N. Com
mand that the NNRC would not
acknowledge the letters nor meet
with South Korean representa
tives.
He said the’ NNRC could deal
only with the Communist and U.N.
commands and regretted its “in
ability to entertain . . . member
states composing the two com
mands.”

Three Killed, Two Hurt
As Ammo Truck Explodes ,
On Busy 4-Lane Highway
OMAHA, OP)—An area not far
from the gates of Father Flana
gan’s famed Boys Town west of
Omaha was a shell- and fire
scarred “no man’s land” Saturday
after an ammunition truck caught
fire Friday night to rock the area
with a series of explosions.
Three persons were killed and
two injured as a direct result of
the spectacular accident.
In addition, the co-owner of a
nearby inn died of a heart attack
apparently brought on by the ex
citement.
It all happened when an am
munition truck rammed a passen
ger car on a busy four-lane high
way 10 miles west of Omaha and
then let go with a series of ex
plosions which showered frag
ments of artillery shells over a
wide area.
American automobile drivers
burn enough gasoline over a holi
day weekend this year to fill 35
fully laden, average-size tank
ships, according to the National
Federation of Shipping.
