This is exactly what a common 3rd overtone crystal will do when it's not
loaded properly. Try changing the values of the resistors in the crystal
circuit or a different circuit. This is my favorite:
+--------|O|--------+
| |
+---R---+ |
| | |
+--|>o--+---|>o-----+--|>o---o out
Try about 220 ohms for R and use a 7404 for the inverter instead of a 74LS04
