underneath a . fender , which one . mightexpect 'in .a simple case of hit-rundriving. For another , lie hnd beenseen alive, at about midnight by afriend, Andrew Ruzicka , 25, of LocustAvenue, who said .he and Rysanek' hadbeen drinking beer in Riizicka's carand that he had - let R.vsanek out of!his car at the corner of Ocean Avenue"and Church Street at about -midnight.He said he saw the youth . turn in tln**-gate iri front of his house and assumed.he went to bed. ' •

Mr. and Mrs. Rysanek, however, said'that Vincent never came home. His bedhadn't been slept in -all night. Andpolice have yet to find anyone who sawhim between the hours of midnightarid six a. m. A boy in the neighbor-hood drove 'past the dlcath scene atabout six o'clock and said he saw noth-ing. ,This, plus the fact the body, waswarm when found , caused the author-ities to place his death as occurringafter six a.m., or in daylight

Coroner Laviano said it appears like-ly that the boy decided to "walk it off"instead of going into the house at mid-night and met up with someone elsewith a car. He might have fallen offa running board or tumbled 'out of acar door while speeding toward hishome,.. Dr. Laviano said,'with the driverso terrified to find him dead he spedfrom the scene. His injuries, however,were severe enough to lean toward thetheory he had been hit by a car whilewalking. • ' ¦ ¦ ' . '

The pool of blood was located at thecrown of the road and sloped downto the north shoulder. There were notire marks through it. The body waseither thrown by the impact or carriedto a spot just three feet off the road ,where it was partially hidden by thelow underbrush. Dr. J. J. McCoy, ofSayville, who pronounced him dead.,said death was nearly instantaneous.

. A morning student at Sayville HighSchool and a greenhouse worker in thegftemoon , Rysanek had purchased theevening before a new penknife to beused • in cutting flowers. It was foundon the ground beside his body. YoungRuzicka identified it. "I was with himwhen he bought it ," lie said.

"When I left him. at the corner ,"Ruzicka told the officers at the scene,he-said to me, 'See you at seven '. Wewere going to exercise our dogs thismgrning."

Police records at tlie Sayville -pre-cinct show., that several months agoyoung Rysanek fell or was pushed froma car. in front of his house. He wasn'tbadly .injured but police were called tothe scene, No action was taken.

When. Mr. and Mrs, Rysanek aroseshortly before seven o'clock on Sundayand found Vincent's bed had not beenslept in, Mr. Rysanek telephoned. Ruz-icka, At ' the' same time, he sent his12-year-old son, Philip, outdoors toscour the-"ncighborhood. Philip foundhis brother 's body shortly after seveno'clock. ' '

By mid-morning on Sunday, a 13-state alarm had been sent out for theguilty driver. Police immediately beguna systematic check of all cal-s withdamaged front ends in this area andby Monday-morning tips began to ar-rive at police headquarters from num-erous sources.

That same day, a Brookhaven Town

officers are working on the hunch thaithe deed was pcipetrated by a youngfriend of Ry.sanek's speeding alonjChurch Street in an early-morningj aunt, but point out that it is a hunch ;nothing more.

Mr.. Rysanek, neighbors and relativeshave been conductm***; an investigationof their own , checking and doublechecking taverns - and restaurants inthe hopa-"of finding ' a clue as to theboy 's whereabouts after midnight. "Stfar wo haven 't fcurid . out a singlethins." Mr. R.vsanek said on Wc-cinn*--day afternoon. "I have combed everyfoot of scrub osk near the pl-cr* iihappened. " ho said , "and all I couldfind was a piece of an auto grill whiththe cops now have. I can't umlerstancit at all."

Besides his parents, young Rysanefcis survived by three brothers , PhilipAllen and Jonathan. Fire Departmeniservices were held on Tuesday evenlhjat the William J. E. Adamec funerachapel in Bohemia. Funeral rites wenheld • on Wednesday afternoon at thichapel with the Rev. William T. Shoe-maker, pastor of St. Luke's EpiscopaChurch, officiating. Interment followecin Union Cemetery , Bohemia.

Fowl PoxFowl pox, which affects chickens

and other poultry, is .not transmissi-ble to humafi beings. Some peoplehave the idea that chicken pox inhuman beings is the same as fowlpox , but this is hot correct. The only,similarities between these diseasesis that both are caused by virusesand both produce sore-like spotson the skin.

policeman recalled having seen a graysedan parked alongside a road in Lake'Grove shortly before seven o'clock onSunday morning. The dri ver was outsidethe car, peering at the front end , andwhile the policemen did not consider*it an odd happening , he did glance at--he licence plate , and remembered itbegan with "8G." .

This immediately sent all agencies ona '.search ..throughout .the county, forautomobiles of that type and year and,with "8G" plates . Gradually the listmaintained ..by . the Bureau of Motor!Vehicles' was narrowed down to 13 by.Tuesday ,morning.. ... A flying squad of Islip cops, accom-|

panied by Brookhaven police, went to'another village on Tuesday where a 'car. pf that . type _:id year had beenspotted with a .damaged front end andwith blood , stains on one fender andthe windshield. The car was impoundedand a sample of tlie blood taken to ivlaboratory for an analysis.

This particular auto , it developed , hadbeen involved in an accident early onSunday morning and certain aspectsof the- case, including blood stains onthe vehicle, gave rise to a belief thatits driver may have been the motoristsought for the Rysanek death. Lt. BenGaiser "of the Islip' police said yester-day, however, that the connection ap-peared'a remote one.

"We're right back where we started,"he said. "Quite frankly, we have al-most nothing to go on." Police, how-ever, have been busy checking friendsand acquaintances of trie dead boy andlooking up "hot rod" cars throughoutthis area. Some of the investigating
