The records of Mrs.

Clinton's work for her Whitewater partner's savings and loan sought by Whitewater prosecutors for two years before surfacing late Friday afternoon from White House files state that Mrs. Clinton prepared a land option on May 1986. The document was for the transfer of a 22.5-acre parcel south of Little Rock, from businessman Seth Ward to James McDougal in exchange for money from McDougal's Madison Guaranty. McDougal didn't pay Ward the money and the option became an important piece of evidence in an Arkansas court battle, with Ward declaring the option bolstered his claim for over $300,000 in real estate commissions from an subsidiary controlled by McDougal. The jury agreed with Ward and awarded him the money.

At the time of the jury verdict, Madison was being taken over by the federal government and the judg. ment was at taxpayer expense. PENNSYLVANIA Tuesday, Jan. 9 Accu forecast for daytime conditions and high temperatures CANADA N. Y.
