Palmisano, 49, was killed Fnday when a bomb exploded in his car. He had been notified recently by the FBI that he one of nine persons whose telephones were wiretapped last month as part of a U.S. Organized Crime Strike Force investigation into Milwaukee area gambling activities. Milwaukee police were joined at the blast scene by FBI agents and Milwaukee County District Attorney E. Michael McCann.

We are always interested in mob-related activity, an FBI spokesman said. It certainly is gangland style, theres no question about that, said McCann. Twenty-one other cars were damaged by the force of the blast in an underground parking area at the Juneau Garden Village Apartment on the citys East Side, and an estimated $1,500 damage was caused to the garage. It was one heck of a bang, said Michael Thiel, 22, a resident of the apartment complex. The blast actually knocked pictures off the wall.

Police said the bomb was apparently placed under the hood on the driver's side of Palmisanos car, a 1977 Mercury. Palmisano, who operated a produce wholesale business from a tavern on Milwaukees Commission Row, was burned almost beyond recognition and Milwaukee Police Lt. Thomas Perlewitz said his body was identified through fingerprints. It almost severed the front of the car, said First Battalion Fire Chief Thomas Komcke. It was a very, very forceful explosion.

An attempt to bomb the car of Vincent J. Mamaci, a friend of Palmisanos, was made last August. Police found 20 sticks of dynamite beneath his car and said he escaped death because the bomb was not properly connected. Mamacis brother, August, was shot and killed three years ago behind his LEGAL NOTICES STATE OF WISCONSIN CIRCUIT COURT DANE COUNTY SUMMONS Case No. 163428 I la Mane Leonhordt 6302 East Gate Road Monona, Wisconsin 53716 vs.

PUB TCT: June 26 and Thats when she came at me, wattles flying wings flapping. convicted gambler home. His killer has not been found. Palmisano was fmed $1,000 in a 1963 conviction on a charge of gambling without buying a gambling tax stamp. He pleaded guilty in 1975 to a charge of conducting a gambling business, and was fmed $500 and placed on probation for two years.

He was also charged with unlawfully storing 93 sticks of dynamite in the basement of his tavern, then known as Richies on Broadway and now called Palmys Tavern. That charge was dismissed. According to city records, Palmisano had a one-third intest in the firm which owned the tavern until June 1976, when he transferred ownership to his son, John 24. Irving Goldman, an official of the firm which owns the building where the tavern is located, described Palmisano as a nice fellow who always paid his rent. He said he often arrived at the tavern at 5 a.m.

to buy produce from local dealers, then organize deliveries to small restaurants, grocery stores and nightclubs. He had no warehouse, stacking the produce on the sidewalk until it was loaded into his trucks. He was good to bums, paupers, rich men and poor men, said one man who drove truck for Palmisano. He would take a bum off the street and feed him. There aint no one that could say anything bad about him.

Hero turns out to be wanted man NEW YORK (AP) Sometimes things are not the way they seem, noted Mayor Edward Koch. This is what his honor had to say Fnday after police told him a man he had cited as a hero was wanted on forgery charges. Koch had presented James Harris with the Transit Authontys certificate of heroism and a five-year free pass for city subways and buses earlier this week. Harris, 30, a 5-foot-4 inch, ex-Ma-nne, had won the admiration of all when he stood unarmed before a kni-fe-wieldmg thug on a subway tram and ordered him to surrender. The bandit meekly complied.

Police now say Hams is really Raymond Taliaferro of the Bronx, a forgery and bad check suspect who has disappeared and is being sought for questioning. Furthermore, the mayors press aide, Maureen Connelly, reported that the man who appeared at City Hall to accept the heroism award Tuesday was not James Harris-Raymond Taliaferro at all, but Richard Taliaferro, the suspected forgers identical twin brother. Bronx investigators from the district attorneys office say the brothers often switched places. The hero had refused to allow media photographs of his face when his act of heroism was first reported, citing possible retaliation. Police say Harris is wanted for questioning in a case which involves as much as $150,000 taken from fundraising efforts for the Little Pros Basketball Association, a youUi group which Harris directs.

Chased me out ot the hen house and right into the arms of my grandpa. OF Mabel get ya? Bet you accidentally took her nest egg! He poked into the basket and drew out an egg.

This one here, see? Its china. Put it in there just for Mabel. Little something of her own so shes not sitting there all alone. Mighty comfortin to a hen, boy. Nest egg can be mighty comfortin to some folks, too.

Later that day, Grandpa gave me my first Savings Bond. Said hed planned to give me a lecture about saving, but Ol Mabel had done it -all for him. Told me that the Bond was my start I I1 VI i I Take stock inmerica. A public ssrvico ol ibis publication no Tns Advortomg Council SP-171U 4 A A Arl i.
