He
said
Marjorie
Thomas,
sister
of
Coreen,
"didn't
say
much
of

at
the
accident
because
she
was
emotional.
Taylor
testified
when
he
questioned
Patrick
two
days
later
she
was
calm
and
vocal
and
again
said
Thomas
was
playing
chicken.
He
denied
threatening
her
or
saying
she
would
be
"sent

Taylor
described
the
interview
with
Marjorie
Thomas
as
being
calm.
He
said
he
did
not
threaten
her.
Taylor
said
Thomas
appeared
to
be
a
"timid,
shy
girl"
and
he
did
not
raise
his
voice
when
talking
to
her.
On
Sunday,
Marjorie
said
the
constable
accused
her
of
lying
when
she
said
Coreen
was
not
playing
chicken.

DAMASCUS
(
AP)
-
The
Syrian
government
hanged
three
pro-Palestinian
guerrillas
at
dawn
today
in
swift
retribution
for
a
bloody
raid
on
a
Damascus
hotel
just
24
hours
earlier.
A
fourth
guerrilla
and
four
hostages
were
killed
and
34
hostages
wounded
in
a
seven-hour
battle
for
the
Semiramis
Hotel.
The
three
terrorists
were
hanged
in
a
public
square
facing
the
luxury
hotel.
Their
bodies,
clad
only
in
white
tunics,
were
left
dangling
in
nooses
for
hours
as
thousands
of
Syrians
pressed
around
the
gallows
and
climbed
to
rooftops
to
see
the
victims.
The
guerrillas
called
themselves
the
Black
June
group
and
apparently
were
protesting
Syria's
military
intervention
that
began
last
June
in
the
Lebanese
civil
war.
More
than
12,000
Syrian
troops
entered
Lebanon
to
enforce
a
ceasefire,
but
they
eventually
joined
with
Lebanese
Christian
militiamen
fighting
the
Pales
tinians
and
their
leftist
Moslem
allies.
Before
they
were
executed,
the
three
went
on
Syrian
state
television
and
said
they
belonged
to
Al
Fatah,
the
biggest
Palestinian
guerrilla
group.
They
also
