Gun-Toting Bride Fails In
Attempt to Nail Down
Reluctant Bridegroom
ELKTON, Md., OP) — An appli
cation for a marriage license at
the courthouse went smoothly un
til the clerk, George Ellery, asked
the prospective bridegroom:
“Now, will you raise your right
hand and swear that the infor
mation in this license application
is true?”
“I won’t swear,” replied Rob
ert K. Worrell of Moorestown,
N. J., “until she gets that gun
out of her bag.”
That touched off a commotion
and Sheriff Edgar Startt wound
up arresting Angeline Saler 47,
The reluctant bridegroom, a 68
year-old retired seaman, told the
sheriff Mrs. Sailer had come to
his house with a gun Monday and
forced him to accompany her to
Elkton to get married.
“You’re going to marry me or
I’m going to kill you,” he quoted
her.
This city in northeastern Mary
land is noted for its quickie mar
riages but state law now requires
a three day waiting period.
Mrs. Sailer was held in $500
bond on a charge of carrying a
concealed weapon. The sheriff
found a .38 revolver wrapped in a
fur piece in her car.
Worrell told Sheriff Startt he
had been going with Mrs. Sailer
off and on for about 10 years, but
had said nothing about marriage.
Architect Envisions
Mood-Scented, Smogproof
Urban ‘Home of 1970’
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., DP) —
The Southern Californian’s home
of 1970 may be perfumed to suit
the occasion, an architect says.
Paul R. Williams of Los An
geles told the National Society
of Interior Designers Monday that
by 1970 —
“People will start coming back
to the city to live and will want
a home designed around business
and social activity. The design of
this 1970 home should be quite
revolutionary.
“It will possibly feature win
dowless walls on the street side
with all rooms facing inward and
it would also have a filtered cir
culating air system to escape the
smog, and be perfumed to suit
the occasion.”
He didn’t say what scents for
what occasions.

New Boeing 707 Jet
Falls Apart In Hard
Test Maneuvers
EBERETT, Wash., (ff) — A brand
new Boeing 707 jet airliner, three
engines ripped loose by a violent
maneuver during a test flight,
crashed in flames at dusk Monday.
Four of the eight men aboard
were killed.
Bodies of the four victims were
recovered during the night. Three
were in the cockpit. The fourth
was found in the swift-flowing
Stillaguamish River where the
giant plane came down on a sand
bar in the Cascade foothills about
25 miles northeast of here.
The Boeing Airplane Co. im
plied that the 5 million dollar jet
liner had been mishandled and
subjected to stresses beyond any
which would be experienced dur
ing normal flights.
The company statement* said
“misapplication of controls dur
ing recovery from the demonstra
tion of unusual flight attitudes”
caused a “violent maneuver”
which tore three of the plane’s
four engines from the wings.
The airliner was being tested
for Braniff International Airways.
It was to have been delivered and
flown to Dallas, Tex., Saturday.
Witnesses said one of the en
gines fell off, afire, as the pilot
attempted an emergency wheels
up landing on a small island in the
river.
Boeing test pilot Russell H.
Baum, 32, of Seattle, who had
taken over the controls after the
accident at 12,000 feet altitude,
tried to bring in the crippled
plane. He, another Boeing man
and two Braniff pilots died in the
crash.
The tail section was not dam
aged in the crash and the sur
vivors had taken refuge there.
They were hospitalized, but were
reported not seriously hurt.
The Civil Aeronautics Board
said its investigation of the crash
will be handled by Frank McKel
veen of Seattle. Keith Wilkinson,
CAB officer at Anchorage, will
head the group handling witness
interrogation.
