New York: Clock radio and kitchen knives--objects, which police say figured in the slaying of Janice Wylie and Emily Hoffert last 8/28--are pictured at office of Property Clerk here 11/16. According to police reconstruction of crime, radio's plug had been pulled out of electric outlet when Janice's body fell across wire, stopping the clock at 10:35 a.m. Police said the killer, using common kitchen knives, had struck with such fury that two of the knives had broken in half.
