Crowd watches as youths beat boy
LONDON (UPI) - Ensrico Sidoli had
a nervous tic and his classmates taunt-
ed him with the nickname "Noddy,"
after a children's book character whose
head nodded back and forth.
The teen-ager lived in a fantasy world,
pretending to be a disc jockey, and he
talked incessantly. All this set him apart
and made him the butt of pokes at
school.
Three weeks ago Enrico went to a
public swimming pool where three
youths attacked him, beat him severely
and held him under water until he
stopped struggling.
Not one of the 1,000 persons at the
pool, including lifeguards, paid any at-
tention to his cries for help.
And now not one of them will come
forward to talk to Scotland Yard about
his slaying.
"There is a complete wall of silence
around this case," one Scotland Yard
source said. ,
Fifteen-year-old Enrico, who died 11
days after the attack, was buried
Wednesday. An older sister came from
Australia for the funeral. Other rela-
tives came from Italy. Scotland Yard
detectives sent a wreath.r
Another wreath at Enrico's funeral-
a teddy bear of white chrysanthemums
was from the students at school. But
none of those classmates, some of whom
witnessed Enrico's death, would talk
about what they lad seen.
"Some of our people talked to one
15-year-old girl and decided her parents
should be present," said Scotland Yard
'Detective 5Chief Inspector Harry Cle-
ment.
"When they went to her house the par-
ents pretended they were not home, then;
said the girl was not there, then said
she was sick and could not speak."
"We know there are people who saw
this killing of a helpless boy, and who
could identify the killers," Clement said.
"We appeal to them to come forward."
Police sources voiced suspicion that
Enrico's attackers were about his own
age, knew him well and had not in-
tended to kill. They said this still was
guesswork.,~
"People cannot be so sick as to ignore
the grief that has been shown here,"
Clement said at the boy's funeral.
"There is nothing to be proud about
in concealing the identities of ruffians
who kill a helpless lad. It makes me
sick to think that despicable yobs hood-
lums are being shielded from the law."
"My son was killed in front of 1,000
people," said Antonio Sidoli, Si. "If
they don't want to come forward, what
can I do?"
Unemployment up in July
Regents OK new 'U' budget
sContinued from Page 3)
For whatever reason, 47.,4 per
cent of all working-age women
are now looking for or holding
jobs, up from 46.1 per cent a
year ago. The participation rate
for adult men, meanwhile, has
fallen in the same period, from
81.1 per cent to 80.5 per cent.
THE UNEMPLOYMENT rate
for adult women in July was 7.6
per cent compared to 7.1 per
cent in June. Adult male un-
employment at 6.1 per cent, was
virtually unchanged from 6 per
cent in June. Unemployment
among heads of households
climbed to 5.4 per cent from 5.1
per cent.
Teen-agers and blacks, the
groups hardest hit by unemploy-
ment, gained in July, as teen-
age unemployment fell from 18.4
per cent to 18.1 per cent and
black joblessness fell from 13.3
per cent to 12.9 per cent.
The severity of unemployment
moderated somewhat, with the
average duration falling from
16.9 weeks in June to 15.8 weeks
in July.

Dearborn campus, and $8,264,950
for the Flint campus.
The Regents also approved a
separate $95 million operating
budget for University Hospital,,
an increase of more than $9
million over last year's amount.
The budget calls for a 9.4 per
cent increase in daily service
charges, effective September 1,
to produce part of the additional
revenue. The rate hikes, coupled
with increased use of hospital
facilities, are expected to gen-
erate enough money to cover
increased expenses that have
resulted from inflation, mal-
practice costs and higher utility
costs.
