school, Arvin said. Hard drugs such as cocaine, crack and LSD are the ones that get the most attention. Yet it is the use of “gateway” drugs—tobacco, alcohol and marijuana—that is the major source of drug problems in schools, he said. In a survey issued last year by I-STAR, a anti-drug initiative started by Lilly Endowment for middle-school students, 6 percent of sixth graders and almost 9 percent of 10th graders reported having two to four alcoholic drinks. Twenty-two percent percent of 10th graders said they had 21-100 drinks and 13 percent said they have had more than 100 drinks. For marijuana usage, only about 1 percent of sixth graders and 11 percent of 10th graders have tried the drug four times or less while nearly 6 percent of 10th graders said they used marijuana more than 100 time. The study showed relative small numbers of students use hard drugs such as cocaine, crack and heroin. Nearly 12 percent of 10th graders .had tried amphetamines. About 12 percent of sixth graders admitted to sniffing inhalants such as glue, gasoline or paint more than once. Arvin estimated than one out of ever five students or 20 percent go to school expressly to buy, sell or use drugs. Fridays are big for drug sales in schools, he added. Often children’s parents give them money to buy drugs for the parents for the weekends. The parents do this believing if the child gets caught, not too much will happen to him, whereas the offense might be more serious, Arvin commented. Captain George Scott at the Indianapolis Public Schools said the new school year has quiet—so quiet that he is afraid at what might happen next. So far, there have been only three arrests, none of them drug related. The Indianapolis Police Department’s narcotics branch operates a drug awareness program and is involved with the Healthy Reasons to Say No to

Drugs contest. Sgt. Jacqualyn Ginther in one of a number of officers who speak to students and other groups about the physical and legal implications of drug use. The biggest problem in schools is the use of marijuana, alcohol and “lookalike” drugs—highmilligram caffeine pills made to look like other drugs, Ginther said. By high school, youths are becoming more involved with cocaine and hallucinogens such as LSD or acid. IPD’s overall confiscations of LSD have increased more than 200 percent, she said. Narcotics officers are not only seeing an increase in the use of LSD, but of mushrooms as well, particularly in the northern part of the county, she added. The number one drug in country is still alcohol, she stated. When she talks to students, she stresses what effect various drugs have on the body. Many youngsters are not aware that it is not always only the drug that can cause injury or death. What the drug is mixed with—and that could range from milk sugar to PCP to battery acid—can also be dangerous, she said, She feels happy and positive about the Healthy Reasons to Say No program because she is seeing more and more students who want no part of the drug scene. “I feel positive when I talk to the kids in school because they don’t want any part of this. They see it’s messed up some adult’s life and they see it doesn’t solve problems,” Ginther said. Arvin said he advocates more drug prevention and education programs as the way to fight the drug drug problem. “You’re not going to cut the supply of drugs,” he said. “There’ too much money wrapped up in it. So what we’re trying to do is cut the demand.” Police and the prosecutor help stop the immediate problem when they prosecute dealers. The answer, however lies in changing attitudes so that society, especially children, will think it is “uncool” to do drugs, Arvin said.”

Church’s Fried Chicken at 5040 E. 38th St. Friends and co-workers are shocked at the shooting, describing McGuire an upstanding young man. The assistant manager of Church’s Fried Chicken, Jim Doughty, said McGuire never caused or had any trouble at work. “He just cooked the chicken and went home,” Doughty said. He never saw the youth being wild or pushy, saying he was also rather quiet at work. Doughty said if he had thought of anyone this might happen to, it would not have been McGuire. “It’s a very unfortunate thing, he just happened to know the wrong people and took the punishment for it,’’ he comment.

Edwards first IPS student td win Lugar Scholarship

% a

MONICA R. EDWARDS

Monica R. Edwards, a 1988 graduate of Indianapolis’ Arsenal Technical High School, has been awarded a $20,000 Richard G. Lugar Scholarship, it was announced by William T. Ray, President of the board of the Fund for Hoosier Excellence, which grants the scholarship. Edwards, the first Indianapolis Public Schools (IPS) student to receive the $20,000 Lugar award, won the scholarship after its original recipient, Trina R. Williams of Muncie, had to decline. Williams, who was given the award in March (1988), decided to attend college outside of Indiana, thereby disqualifying herself for the scholarship. Edwards, the preselected female runner-up, was given the award after Williams defaulted.

Edwards has elected to attend Butler University, where she will study biology. The Richard G. Lugar Scholarship is awarded by the Fund for Hoosifcr Excellence, which was begun in 1983 by Indiana Senator Richard G. Lugar to reward academic achievement among black, Hispanic, and American Indian students from Indiana. The Fund for Hoosier Excellence is supported solely by private contributions. Each year, ten scholarship finalists—two from each of five regions of the state—are selected by a committee made up of members of the board of directors of the Fund for Hoosier Excellence. Of these ten finalists, two students, a male and a female, are awarded scholarships of $20,000 (paid in $5,000 amounts for four years), and the remaining eight are given $1,000 awards. The names of the two top ($20,000) winners are announced each March. Each Indiana high school prihcipal is annually invited to nominate an outstanding male and an outstanding female minority student. To be eligible, a nominee must be black, Hispanic, or American Indian; the student must have demonstrated academic excellence throughout his or her high school career; and the student must plan to attend college in Indiana. “Having been born and raised in Indianapolis, and having attended IPS since kindergarten, I feel I am a product of the public school system in Indiana. Because my success can be partially attributed to IPS, I feel that I represent the best IPS has to offer,” Edwards said.

occurred and painted a picture of Montgomery as a quiet, mannerable young man who appeared to get along with his mother. “He was a pretty quiet kid. He didn’t really mingle with the neighborhood,” said One man who did not wish to be identified. “The boyfriend seemed to be a pretty nice guy. The mother was quiet. The little boy never really talked that much. Every time I’d see them, it was always a nice, kind word. Tha^j why I was surprised.” The man said he had heard people say the boy was abused by his mother’s boyfriend, but he never saw any arguments or fights among the three. Another neighbor who was close to Washington’s daughter echoed the man’s comments, adding that Montgomery seemed to get along well with his mother, but not with Yarbro. “He was a real respectful child. He showed respect to adults,” she said. “Anything she (Washington) asked him to do, he would do it without argument.” Yarbro was strict on Montgomery, the woman said, recalling a time when she saw the boy cutting “very tall” weeds in the back yard with a machete at Yarbro’s command. i The morning of the shooting, the woman was awakened by the barkihg

of her pitbull. She said she heard a loud crash outside her house and thought someone was breaking into her garage. She then heard a shot and thought someone had shot her dog. She now believes Montgomery ran by the side of her house and ran into a parked car while trying to get to his friend’s house. She saw the boy often, biU never noticed bruises or marks to indicate he might have been regularly abused. She did say that once when the boy had a black eye, he told her son that his mother’s boyfriend allegedly hit him. One neighbor. Hazel Bartlett, said Washington, Montgomery and Yarbro were good neighbors. Several years ago, she heard Washington allegedly whipping the boy and heard him crying, she recalled. Other than that, she did not remember any disturbances at the residence, “not even loud music,” she said. Many neighbors said they did not realize Washington and Yarbro were not married and that Yarbro was not the boy’s father until after the shooting. One resident once allegedly saw Montgomery’s friend in the street with a rifle resembling the one used in last week’s shooting. The neighbor said some house windows had been shot at, but it is not know if the youth did the shooting.

McGuire’s parents were unavailable for comment as The Recorder went to press. Homicide detectives still have no suspects in the death of 45-year-old Billy Eugene Thomas, 1500 block of North Illinois Street. Thomas walked in to a Fire Station No. 5 Sept. 10 and said he was beaten in the apartment complex at 1530 N. Illinois Street. He died the next day at Methodist Hospital from abdominal hemorrhaging. Authorities are continuing the investigation into the death of a 78-year-old man who apparently killed himself after trying to kill his wife early Sunday morning. James M. Nolden, 1300 block of LeMans Court died from a gunshot wound to the head. The man’s wife, Azzie Lee, told investigators that she was awakened by a loud noise and felt her head bleeding. She told her husband to call the police. He got out of bed and went to the kitchen. She said she heard another loud noise. She found her husband on the kitchen floor, police said. . Police recovered the gun af the scene.

Navy wants to increase public awareness of MIAs, POWs

Three local Navy commands are working together to establish a POW/MIA point of contact to assist Hoosiers in obtaining current information on sailors Still missing or unaccounted for in Southeast

mander of the Nkval Reserve Center, can be contacted with questions about Navy MIA/POWs by telephoning (317)924-6389 or by writing to him at the Heslar Naval Armory, West 30th Street and

warrants reopening. In 1982, a grand jury recommended that the then-15-year-old Murray be tried for voluntary manslaughter in connection with the death of her 12-year-old brother, Charles, who was found in the basement of their house on Radnor Road June 9, 1982, with a butcher knife embedded deeply into his chest and a belt drawn tightly around his neck. An autopsy revealed the boy died from strangulation. Murray had told police she found her brother with the knife in his chest and the belt around his neck and said he might have committed suicide when she threatened to tell their parents he had left the house while their parents were away. She said he had threaten to kill himself but she did not believe him. She found him unconscious when she went to the basement later to check on him, she told authorities. During the investigation, authorities learned Murray’s

boyfriend had been at the house while the parents were gone. Police found no suicide note with Charles. Murray denied killing her brother. Sources at the sheriffs department say the case was dropped after thq pathologist changed his report to indicate the boy’s death could have been the result of suicide. However, Baker is trying to reopen the case based on discfepencies in some of the statements and the suspiscious circumstances surrounding the death. “We were real frustrated after the case was dismissed,” Baker said. The recent incident with Murray brought the old case back to life, he said. He was thinking about reopening the case before the weekend incident, however he did not know how to go about it, he said. “Nothing is set in concrete about what we’re going to do,” he said. He is still talking to the prosecutor’s office and having the pathologist’s report reread, he stated.

The Naval Reserve Center, the Navy Recruiting District and the Naval Avionics Center in Indianapolis want to increase public awareness of the U.S. government’s efforts in persuading Vietnamese authorities to accelerate cooperation on the POW/MIA issue.

In August 1987, President Reagan appointed a special presidential emissary for POW/MIA affairs. Since then, some progress has been made. In three separate instances, Hanoi has repatriated remain* believed to be those of American servicemen. So far, two sets of these remains have been positively identified as missing or otherwise unaccounted for in Southeast Asia.
