Waterbury's chief inspector Jo- iicph R. Bendler said the bomber tniadcd New York's Coliseum last month when the auto show My on. Tens of thousands of ex- IllItliOI'S and visitors were there.

Iletesky was quoted as saying he had a home-made pipe bomb with him and intended to plant It. But Bcndler said the Bomber explosive roar would not sound impressive enough.

Beginning last Dec. 27. the iliomber sent the first of four let- ters to the New York Journal- American. They wcre proiiipted by the newspaper's series of open- letters urging the Bomber to givcl himself up and promising him legal protection.

In each letter. the man re- vealed a little more of his back-7 ground. From the tone of the let- ters he did so willingly. as though he deliberately wished to invite capture.

His last letter was dated Jan. Ill. in it were details iiiiicli sent Consolidated Edison back once more to the files they had been combing for years .

Last Friday. Alice C Kelly, who has worked for the utility foi 25 years. came across a file of six threatening letters llletesky had written to the company since
