City Police A two-vehicle accident was reported at 3:55 p.m. Friday at the intersection of North Indiana and Jacob streets. Sgt. Ernie Newby reported that a 1978 Chevrolet, driven by Herberta C. Sutton, 80, Greencastle, was stopped at a stopsign when a 1973 Plymouth, driven by Wanda J. Strauser, 38, Greencastle, collided with the Sutton car. Strauser told police a child in a yard near the intersection caught her eye as she turned and she was forced to swing wide at the intersection because of a parked car. There were no injuries and no citations issues as a result of the accident. City police acitivity on Thursday resulted in the investigation of one proper-ty-damage accident, five arrests and two traffic citations. At 3:15 p.m. Thursday, Det. Sgt. Rodney Cline investigated an accident on North Indiana Street involving a 1974 Chevrolet, driven by Kenneth Scroggin, 19, Greencastle, and a 1970 Oldsmobile, driven by Ralph Bruner, 57, Greencastle. Det. Sgt. Cline said that Bruner was pulling out of his driveway at 515 N. Indiana St. and did not see the northbound Scroggin vehicle. The Bruner car hit the truck on the passenger’s side, police said. There were no injuries or citations as a result of the mishap. Officer Mike Hanlon arrested four out-of-slate men at 11:40 p.m. Thursday on the parking lot at Schultz’s Family Store on Indianapolis Road.

Student Affairs Office planning January retreat Two retreats-one on human relations and another on human potential-will be held in January, according to the Student Affairs Office. Each retreat’s theme will be carried out through a variety of planned small group activities and organized “community” events involving all participants. QUIET REFLECTION, informal discussion, socializing and fun are important ingredients of a successful retreat, and there will be free time for music, walks in the woods, dancing, sitting by the fire, reading, games and drawing. The first retreat on human potential will be held Jan. 11-13 at the 4-H Leadership Center near West Lafayette. The theme will lead the group into explorations of meditation, creativity, mind-body connections, self-awareness, altered states of consciousness, self-hypnosis and other aspects of who you are and could become. The human relations retreat Jan. 25-27 will be conducted at Bradford Woods near Martinsville, I£J. This retreat will explore many aspects of human relationships, including trust, openness, communication, expression of feelings, self-awareness and sensitivity. Some of the topics which may be covered include risk-taking, getting acquainted, shyness, family relations, conformity and dating and other male-female relations. BOTH RETREATS WILL begin Friday evening and end Sunday mid-morning. All members of the DePauw community are welcome. The total cost, including meals and lodging for each weekend, is S3B. For additional information, persons may contact Tom Amer at the Student Affairs Office, 658-4003. Enrollment is limited.

6, Indy’s Anti-porn Ordinance The Indianapolis City-County Council made national headlines during the summer with the passage of a controversial ordinance aimed at making pornography a form of sexual discrimination. But in November, U.S. District Judge Sarah Evans Barker declared the measure unconstitutional, saying it was in violation of Ist Amendment free speech guarantees. The ordinance, tried unsuccessfully in Minneapolis, defined pornography as the graphic depiction of sexually explicit subordination of women. It then declared pornography a form of sex discrimination. Mrs. Barker said that through the ordinance city officials “seek to control speech.” Opponents of the ordinance claimed the judge’s ruling left the ordinance unsalvageable. But the city in mid-December filed notice of appeal. 7, Larry Eyler Charges For the second time, former Putnam County resident Larry Eyler is in a Chicago jail. A suspect in a string of unsolved murders of young men and boys in Indiana and Illinois, Eyler was indicted in August in the death of Daniel S. Bridges of the Chicago area. Bridges’ dismembered body was found stuffed in several plastic bags in a trash bin behind Eyler’s apartment. Court documents indicate one of Eyler’s fingerprints was found inside one of the bags containing body parts and that a leather-type awl and hacksaw frame were found in his apartment, as well as blood matching Bridges’ type. The records also describe attempts to paint over blood stains that were found in Eyler’s apartment. Eyler, when arrested, was free on SIO,OOO bond on a 1983 Lake County, 111., murder charge in connection with the slaying of Ralph Calise, 28, of Chicago. His body was found near Waukegan, 111. Chicago investigators have met with an Indianapolis-based task force investigating a string of homosexual-related murders in the state. During the meetings, investigators turned over various materials they have developed in nearly 18 months of investigation. 8, Women In Politics It was a year of many firsts for women in politics. Sarah Evans Barker, a Republican, became the first woman appointed to the federal bench in Indiana. A former U.S. attorney for Indiana’s Southern District, Mrs. Barker succeeded Judge Cale J. Holder, who died in 1983. Another former U.S. attorney, Virginia Dill McCarty, tried to become the first

woman nominated by a major party for governor in Indiana. In a three-candidate race for the Democratic nomination, Mrs. McCarty came in second to state Sen. Wayne Townsend of Hartford City, who went on to lose to GOP Gov. Robert D. Orr in the November election. Mrs. McCarty recently announced that she will be a candidate for governor in 1988. Ann M. DeLaney gave up a sure shot at a Marion County Superior Court seat and instead became the first woman nominated by a major party for the office of lieutenant governor. Townsend, the Democratic gubernatorial nominee, designated the Indianapolis attorney as his running mate and the Democratic State Convention approved. The Townsend-DeLaney ticket hammered hard at the Republican-controlled license branch system and the 1982 state fiscal crisis, coming within 109,000 votes of ending the 16-year GOP dynasty in the governor’s office. 9, The Bth District Rep. Frank McCloskey predicted in September that his re-election campaign for Indiana’s Bth District congressional seat would “go down to the wire.” He was right. In fact, judges are still scrutinizing his photo finish with Republican challenger Rick Mclntyre. McCloskey emerged initially with a 72vote lead making it the nation’s closest House race of the Nov. 6 election. But Mclntyre’s forces spotted a computer error in Gibson County that had given McCloskey too many votes. In a move decried by Democrats as politically motivated, Republican Secretary of State Edwin Simcox refused to certify the election results until the mistake was corrected, which gave Mclntyre a 34-vote lead. By the time Mclntyre was certified the winner Dec. 14, recounts had been ordered in all 15 counties of the district. Both candidates agree the House, as final judge of disputed congressional races, will likely conduct a recount of its own, and that it could be several months before the election is finally settled. 10, Coleman, Brown A summer murder spree that terrorized the Midwest may have counted as its final victim an Indiana resident. For weeks, authorities in six Midwestern states stalked Alton Coleman and Debra Brown before the couple finally was arrested July 20 in Evanston, 111. The two have been charged or are wanted for questioning in a series of crimes ranging from robbery to murder in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin and Kentucky.

Dear Abby Fatties note: Wear maternity pants for laborless effort
DEAR ABBY: A tip to those fatties, both male and female, who are tired of tight belts and tight pants: Wear maternity slacks! Tight belts make my stomach look bigger, and when I sit, I’m so miserable I must undo my belt and pants. I have dieted all my life, and at age 61 I am tired of dieting and tight pants. I tried suspenders, overalls and my wife’s float dress, but all were objectionable. One day after my doctor told me (in a chiding manner) that I looked “pregnant,” I got the idea to try maternity slacks. They were wonderful! They stretch and stretch, and don’t show with a sweater, a buttoned blazer or with my shirttails out. The folks at the local maternity shop tell me I’m their longeststanding customer. Most people in town know me, so sign this ... COMFORTABLE IN CAROLINA DEAR COMFORTABLE: Don’t stretch your luck, my friend. Obesity is nature’s way of telling us we’ve had enough. * * * DEAR ABBY: Five months ago I gave birth to a beautiful little girl My husband and I couldn’t be happier. Unfortunately, she has a rather conspicuous strawberry birthmark on her forehead. The doctor said it will gradually fade and should disappear entirely by the time she is 3 years old. Although I’d rather she didn’t have it, the birthmark doesn’t bother me; I’m just thankful she’s healthy. What does bother me is that every time I take her out, at least three strangers ask me what is “wrong” with her. It’s obviously a birthmark, and I think it’s very rude of people to ask. I came up with what I think is a pretty good answer: Stranger: “What’s wrong with your baby?” Me: “Nothing. What’s wrong with you?” Please let me know if you think this is all right, or do you have a better answer? NEW MOM DEAR MOM: Those who would ask a stranger, “What’s wrong with your baby?” are curious and insensitive and don’t realize they’re being rude. Simply say, “It’s a birthmark, and the doctor says it will disappear by the time she’s 3.” ♦ * * DEAR ABBY: I have so many problems I don’t know where to begin. After 42 years of an almost perfect marriage (we had our problems, but what married couple hasn’t?), I suddenly found myself widowed. Thank God he went fast and didn’t have to suffer like some of our friends. Our two children live far away and they couldn’t have been more supportive, but Abby, the
Fifth Indy escapee captured in Ohio INDIANAPOLIS (AP) Authorities continue their search for the last of six men who escaped Christmas night from the Marion County Jail. The fifth escapee, David Smith, 29, of Noblesville, was apprehended Friday in a Dayton, Ohio, motel, authorities said. Four Marion County sheriff’s deputies were assisted by Dayton police and the U.S. marshal’s office in Smith’s arrest, police said. The search for the sixth escapee, Richard Huffman Jr., 23, of Indianapolis, continues. Huffman was being held on a murder charge in the June slaying of Kerry Golden, 29, of Indianapolis. Deputies and Indianapolis police have been applying “extreme pressure” on friends and relatives of Huffman in an attempt to find him, Col. Robin Funk said Friday.
bottom line is this: I am alone, and 1 don’t want to be a burden on my family or friends. I have decisions to make about my house, my belongings, my finances, my social life, and whether I should go back to college or get a part-time job. (I was an executive secretary, and a good one, for nine years.) I still cry when I’m alone, and the thought of dating again frightens me, although I still feel “young. I’m healthy, gregarious and not unattractive. (Smile.) Where do I start? WIDOWED AT 62 DEAR WIDOWED: You pushed the right button. The American Association of Retired Persons offers a wonderfully helpful booklet for widows and widowers entitled “On Being Alone.” It deals with all kinds of subjects—how to get over grief, how to handle financial problems, loneliness, legal affairs, how to start over socially and meet people, how to stay healthy, even how to prepare a nutritious meal for one. Single copies of this valuable booklet are available free by sending requests to: WPS-AVB, A ARP Box 199, Long Beach, Calif. 90801. The postage will be paid. A letter or postcard with your request is all that is needed, with your name and address clearly printed. * * * DEAR READERS: I believe the following inspirational message from The Wall Street Journal is worth passing along: ONCE AN ACORN “Sometimes to make it big, you first have to make it small. Conrad Hilton started out sweeping floors in a dusty New Mexico hotel. He cleaned up as owner of a famous hotel chain. John Paul Getty started with a SSOO oil lease in Oklahoma and became one of America’s richest men. David Packard baked the paint onto his first product in a kitchen oven. Forty-five years later, he was running a $4.7 billion company. There are anonymous men and women starting small today whose names will be household words in 20 years. Will one of those names be yours? Get started!” HARRY J. GRAY, CHAIRMAN AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, UNITED TECHNOLOGIES (Every teen-ager should know the truth about drugs, sex and how to be happy. For Abby’s booklet, also available in Spanish, send your name and address clearly printed with a check or money order for $2.50 (this includes postage) to: Abby, Teen Booklet, P.O.
