And then the women he loved told him the same bitter thing- he was too old.
It was too much for the 69-year-old Polidor. In a statement to police Monday, Gtullaume said he grabbed a heavy ax and struck Mrs. Elena Gabriella Nelson, 49, a divorcee and veteran circus performer, in the neck. She was killed Instantly in the kitchen of the home she had shared with Guillaume for the past seven years. SDH enraged at Mrs.
Nelson's disclosure that she no longer cared for him that he too old tor her Gull-' laume said he then stuck several kitchen knives Into the woman and silt her throat.

This time It was a dud and Guillaume surrendered quietly to police. It was the end of a career that began 57 years ago In his native Prance, spanned five continents and included performances before President Franklin D.

To Double Boyer Potato Chip Plant Installs New Machinery RURAL VALLEY--The Boyer, Potato Chip Company of Rural Valley is expanding its facilities by the construction of a new building and installation of the latest automatic machinery for the manufacture of potato chips. The concrete block building is being erected adjacent to the present structure.
Most of the new unit has been completed, with the exception of finishing. Already installed is an automatic cooking machine. The new machine, 60 feet, in length, is the only equipment of Its kind In the area. In afldition to the frying operation, a new heat generator will be housed ia a separate building to be constructed. The eight-ton generator will be a- lengslde the present new building.
It trill heat oil for me In the frying operation. Everything will be automatic. Whole raw potatoes are dumped Into one end of the machinery, where they are peeled and Inspected. The peeled potatoes next go into a slicer that cuts them thin slices. The flakes pass into a washer tumbler that removes starch and impurities before depositing on two conveyor belts that drain excess water.
The slices dump into the fryer where they remain for three minutes in deep fat. Coming out of the fryer the chips are salted and another series of conveyors pass the finished product to the packaging area. The entire operation from start to finish Is about five minutes. Boyer's will almost double Its production with the new machinery. They expect to produce between 400 and 500 pounds of chips per hour.
About a ton of raw potatoes will be used every hour. "This a great difference in production since I started the business 23 years ago In the cellar of my home on Main St. In Rural Valley," Jesse E. Boyer, founder of the burliness said. cons are now active In the enterprtM.
NetJ Boyor general manager, Jack E. Boyer Is in charge of special sales and Harry W. Boyer is the plant engineer. The Rural Valley potato chip plant is the only such plant for 50 miles in any direction, Jack Boyer said. The nearest plants are in Uniontown and Houston.
Jack Boyer said that the new plant will provide some relief for the. unemployment problem in the area. He 'said the company will expand its territory, and will need salesmen and distributors. Interested persons can write to the company for Information about distributorships and territories available. At present the chips are marketed in Armstrong.
Indiana, Jefferson and parts of Westmoreland Counties. "As soon as the expansion completed," Jack Boyer said, "and tbx! machinery tested and In operation, the public will be Invited for Inspection and to see potato chips actually being mode.".
