The alleged killer, Benito Rivera Mandonados, 31, swung a baseball bat on police as they closed in on him and shouted: “Come and* get me. I did it.” Dollar bills were found in the clothes of each of the victims and Police said the Slayer put them there “to warn off evil spirits.” _ Slain in the savage assault, dur- ing which a small television set and several chairs were smashed to bits, were°the child, Doris Rod. driguez, Mrs, 65, and teen-ager Ruth Lopez, a Lis to the four-room, fifth floor at. : Rivera Maldonados, employed at a nickel plating he had his morn: partment and, : , On the wa; discovered he ee n was spitting blood.

Many others spent their lives along the bloody Naktong River line. They were cut down and burned alive at ‘“Massaere Valley.” They died in decisive battles like the one at Chip Yong Ni. Or they fought their hearts out on Heart- break Ridge. Some returned to their loved ones. They were rotated home be- |fore it was too late. But Ol’ Sten— wounded seriously once and hurt} in battle several other times— stayed on. The sergeant didn’t want to talk about it much, ; “Oh I was wounded pretty bad once,” he said in am interview here yesterday. “I wag shot in the face, and for about two minutes, I couldn’t see. I thought I was blind. “T stood on my feet for two min- | utes, silently praying that another | bullet would come along and end | it all. I started to rub my eyes.
