23 indicted in drug-smuggling ring

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - A federal grand jury here has indicted 23 persons, alleging they are members of an international drugsmuggling organization suspected of illegally flying several loads of illicit drugs into the country in the last two years. The accused, suspects in a “conspiracy primarily conducted in ' Indiana,” were charged with conspiracy to import and distribute illegal drugs valued at SSO milllion, US. Attorney Virginia Dill McCarty said Monday. Eleven of the 23 persons indicted are from Indiana, while four are from Florida, three from

Wallace arraignment delayed

TERRE HAUTE, Ind. (AP) Donald Ray Wallace’s arraignment on four counts of murder has been postponed until March 3, Vigo County court officials said. Wallace, charged in connection with the deaths of the Patrick Gilligan family, was to be arraigned on the charges Monday. Court officials said the arraignment was postponed by Judge Hugh McQuillan because of delays in transferring court

Extra time needed to iron out differences House extends deadline on highway, budget bills

INDIANAPOLIS (API - Given some extra time to iron out their differences, House Republicans and Democrats prepared to go to work on a highway funding bill and a supplemental budget today hoping to send legislation to the Senate. The House was scheduled to reconvene atß:3oa.m., the final day for passing bills originating in that chamber. On Monday, the House suspended its rules to allow amendments to be taken the same day as the final vote on the highway and budget bills. Ordinarily, separate days are required. Since Monday was the last day a bill could be amended in the House, minority Democrats joined with the Republican majority in agreeing to suspend the rules affecting the two measures. “It takes some time to keep these things working,” said Democratic leader Michael K. Phillips of Boonville. “I’m optimistic as long as there’s a willingness to discuss alternatives.”

Supermarket Shopper Coupons, refunds profitable for single folks, too

By MARTIN SLOANE Dear Supermarket Shopper - I am retired, live alone and have only myself to cook for. Since my supermarket purchases are modest, does it pay for me to bother with coupons and refunds? - Marion F., Prescott, Ariz. Dear Marion - Couponing and refunding are not just for large families. They also make a lot of sense for those living alone. When you purchase the small size of a supermarket product, as single people often do, you usually pay a disproportionate amount for its packaging. In most cases, you pay more per ounce than you would for a larger size. But this doesn’t have to be the case if you use a cash-off coupon. For the person who lives alone, cash-off coupons are the great equalizer. They can bring the unit price of the small size down to that of the larger size. HERE IS AN EXAMPLE: The 28-ounce box of Minute Rice costs $1.99, which is about 7.1 cents an ounce. The 7-ounce box of Minute Rice is priced at 65 cents, or about 9.3 cents an ounce. You pay about 30 per cent more per ounce for the smaller size than you would for the larger one. But if you use the great equalizer - a 15-cents-off coupon -- to purchase the 7-ounce size, its cost per ounce comes down to about that of the larger size. There are times when a cash-off coupon is more useful to a single person than to a large family FOR EXAMPLE, THERE is relatively

Ohio and one from Illinois. The other four persons indicted were unidentified. The 36-count indictment, returned Friday but kept secret until Monday, said the organization known as “The Company” operated from South America to the Midwestern United States. Named in the indictment as head of the organization was David Marshall Carr 111, 30, Cincinnati, arrested in Florida and held under a recommended bond of $1.5 million. The indictment said Carr “occupied a supervisory position and a position of management.” He was charged with “engaging in a continuing criminal enterprise,” a charge that carries a

state

documents and police records from prosecutors to defense lawyers. McQuillan also set a tentative April 28 trial date for Wallace. A court official said the trial was scheduled on the assumption that Wallace will plead innocent. A pretrial hearing is slated for April 2. The bodies of Patrick Gilligan, his wife, Theresa, both 30, and their two children, Lisa, 5, and Gregory, 4, were found in the family room of their home

Ways and Means Committee Chairman William L. Long, RLafayette, said he sought the delay “to let some real good minds get together and do this job right.” Long said he discussed the matter with Democrats Monday morning “and we were not all that far apart, even though there were some differences.” “I thought it would be wrong to push it through Monday and end up having something that might not be good for the citizens,” Long added. The highway funding bill, as it was sent to the full House last week, contains provisions for an 8 percent tax on the price of gasoline, instead of a tax on the number of gallons sold. In addition, it raises most vehicle registration fees and sets aside 3 percent of all sales tax revenue for highways. The change iu the way the highway tax is imposed would result in an increase in the levy because as the pre-tax price of gasoline climbs over $1 a gallon, the 8 percent tax would

Wallace was arrested in December on three preliminary theft charges stemming from an earlier incident but was released after posting SSOO bond. He was arrested in connection with the Gilligan deaths the day after the shooting.

little difference in unit price for various sizes of frozen juice. The 6-ounce can of Minute Maid frozen orange juice is 55 cents, while the 12-ounce size is $1.09. If you use a 10-cents-off coupon to purchase the 6-ounce can, the smaller size winds up costing 17 per cent less per ounce than the larger size! Refunding also offers a lot to single people. When you find a refund check in your mailbox, you get the same thrill whether you shop for yourself or for a herd of hungry kids. IT MAY TAKE YOU a little longer to collect your proofs of purchase. But refund offers are usually good for many months, so you should have plenty of time to obtain them. Single refunders tell me with great satisfaction that they regularly save sls to $25 a month. Dear Supermarket Shopper - In a recent column, you advised shoppers to take to the store with them only those cash-off coupons that they needed for items on their shopping list. I don’t agree with you. My grocery store often has unadvertised items on sale. If I only bring with me the coupon for the advertised item, I am out of luck. - Roberta K„ Cicero, 111. Dear Roberta -1 have received several letters from shoppers like you who prefer to take all of their cash-off coupons with them when they go shopping. Your letter makes a very good point:

maximum penalty of life imprisonment and a SIOO,OOO fine. Among those indicted were two Indiana pilots, identified as Richard C. Curry, 37, and George R. Green, 29. They face similar charges along with Indianapolis businessman Brett C. Kimberlin, in Texas. Kimberlin was not among the 23 indicted in Indianapolis. In Texas, Curry and Green were accused of piloting a cargo plane suspected of carrying thousands of pounds of marijuana. Their trial has been continued until June 6. Mark Samuel Berger, 35, Carmel, Ind., who was arrested in Indianapolis, was identified as a top supervisor.

Prosecution hopes to show NHTSA was misled

WINAMAC, Ind. (AP) - A series of letters will help show that Ford Motor Co. misled a federal agency that asked the automaker for information about alleged defects in the Pinto sedan fuel system, prosecution attorneys say. A dozen letters exchanged by Ford and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration were admitted into evidence Monday in the automaker’s reckless homicide trial stemming from a fiery Pinto crash that killed three young women. “Certain (Ford) responses were false responses, misleading responses, that show Ford’s recklessness,” DePaul University Law Prof. Terrence Kiely said of the letters, which contain Ford answers to NHTSA questions about the Pinto’s design and crash testing.

to the budget bill undoubtedly will depend on how much Democratic support is given to the highway funding measure. One of the bills that died on the calendar was a measure to raise unemployment benefits by 21 percent. Speaker Kermit O. Burrous, R-Peru, said he didn’t move the bill through the amendment stage because he wanted to wait on a Senate bill that would provide “a more reasonable increase." In other legislative action: —A bill that would give the governor broad authority in the area of energy assistance cleared the amendment stage in the House and is now eligible for a final vote. —Legislation to require an emergency medical technician to be present at coal mines for each shift was approved 87-5 in the House and now goes to the Senate for further action. —A bill to give the State Board of Health authority over the disposal of hazardous wastes was approved 91-0 in the

Having your cash-off coupons with you as you search for unadvertised specials and bargains can mean an extra dollar or two saved on every shopping trip. (I hope you shop at more than one store for top savings.) So, I gladly amend my previous advice: If a super-smart shopper wants to get the maximum savings from cash-off coupons and can conveniently take them to the store, then by all means do so.

The indictment said the organization paid cash for fleets of trucks and cars bought under fictitious titles in 11 states and leased aircraft and a Somerset, Ky., airport to smuggle large quantities of cocaine and marijuana into the Midwestern and Southeastern United States. The drugs were purchased in Colombia, South America, and smuggled into the United States, some near Punta Gorda on the west coast of Florida, the indictment said. Indianapolis Police Chief Eugene Gallagher said a network of federal, state and local law enforcement agencies was involved in the investigation, which stretched over 12 states and 50,000 miles.

Admission of the correspondence and a NHTSA report about its investigation of alleged defects in the Pinto fuel system represented a victory for the prosecution in this unique trial, now in its fifth week. Prosecutor Michael A. Cosentino hopes that the May 1978 report and the letters, written between September 1977 and August 1978, will help establish the relevancy of documents about crash tests involving Pintos made before and after 1973, the model year involved in the Indiana crash. Ford is charged with three counts of reckless homicide in the burning deaths of three young women in a Pinto sedan that burst into flames in a rearend collision near Goshen, Ind., in August 1978.

In the Senate, Democratic attempts to make an unemployment benefit increase more generous were unsuccessful and the entire bill is now eligible for a floor vote. The measure, sponsored by Sen. Joseph W. Harrison, R-At-tica, would provide a 12 percent increase in the benefits paid jobless workers. Sen. John P. Bushemi, DGary, proposed that the increase be 21 percent, but his amendment was defeated on a party line vote, 26-21. The measure to remove zoning restrictions on group homes for the retarded was approved after its sponsors, Sen. Charles

crash tests performed on 197172 and 1974-77 model Pintos show that Ford knew that defects in the car’s fuel system made the vehicle likely to explode in flames when struck from behind but decided to forego repairs to save money. So far, Pulaski Circuit Judge Harold R. Staffeidt has excluded any evidence or testimony that does not relate directly to the 1973 Pinto sedan. “Most of the crash tests are with other cars, mostly Pinto prototypes, but the 1973 Pinto is an extension of the 1971 and 1972 Pinto,” Cosentiono told reporters. The final NHTSA report showed that in crash tests conducted with nine Pinto sedans and hatchbacks, two of the cars burst into flames when struck from behind.

E. Bosma, R-Indianapolis, and Sen. Louis J. Mahem Jr., D-In-dianapoiis, said it was needed to get the program off the ground. The 1979 Legislature approved a program to move many of the retarded from state institutions into home-like group homes. But Bosma said only 17 persons have been placed in the homes so far because zoning restrictions in cities and towns have prevented them from being opened. Under Bosnia’s bill, local plan commissions would have the right to propose alternative sites for the homes if they did not like the original proposals. In addition, the measure would prevent group homes from being built within 1,000 feet of another group home. The measure to allow municipal utilities to band together to build power plants and transmission facilities passed without opposition. Investor-owned utilities, within the limits of anti-trust laws, and rural electric cooperatives, already have that right.

Worry Clinic

By Georflt W. Crane, PhD., M.D.

Note how Mrs. Crane’s uterine contractions set my stomach churning! And how we medical students, though nauseated at autopsies of putrid bodies, still grew ravenous for rare steak! CASE U-602: Beth G., aged 28, is the Home Ec teacher who asked how flavor differs from the taste of food. “Dr. Crane,” she smiled, “you say that all of our sensations are involved in what we mistakenly call the ‘taste’ of food. “But you didn’t cite an example of how hearing was involved. “So can you please give me some specific examples?” FLAVOR’S MOSAIC When we were first married, we lived in Evanston, where I was teaching psychology at Northwestern University and Director of the Psychology laboratory. When Mrs. Crane was about to deliver our first baby, I helped her into our car and headed the 12 miles to St. lake’s Hospital on the near south side of Chicago. En route there, I would hear her moan slightly when the muscular contractions would occur in her womb. So I reached over to feel how often they were occurring. Meanwhile, my own stomach began to churn and gnaw, for I am very susceptible to anything suggesting food! “Honey,” I said, “you will not deliver the baby for probably 18 hours, so do you mind if I stop at the next hamburger stand, for I am ravenous for a sandwich?” She assented, so I spent 5 minutes wolfing down a cheeseburger. Then I started the car but we hadn’t gone another 5 miles till I apologetically asked: “Do you mind if I stop for

another sandwich? For my, stomach is still gnawing?” Again she agreed, so I had my second hamburger and thta felt satisfied the rest of the trip. But it was undoubtedly my suggestibility to anything resembling stomach contractions that generated my ravenous appetite. So the very sounds of her recurring moans caused my hunger. In fact, when I was in Medical School, we students, attended pathology demonstrations at Cook County Hospital here in Chicago. The professor would dissect dead bodies, often recovered from the bottom of Lake Michigan, where they were partly decomposed. He would then slice the putrid liver and pass around trays with the bloody liver for all of us to see. Consciously, the sight and smell were revolting, but subconsciously our stomachs would react to the red liver until those of us who preferred rare steak, would soon have gnawing stomachs! We’d feel so ravenous that we were almost ready to chew the varnish off the woodwork and would head for a restaurant as soon as possible to get our rare steak (but not any liver!). This may sound impossible to many of you fastidious readers, especially you women, but the stomach registers to the sight of any raw or rare meat, even though it may repulse your brain! It also registers to the “Yum Yum” smacking of lips over delicious desserts, which is why so many of us have that roll of upholstery around our “equators”! (Always write to Dr. Crane. Hopkins Bldg..
