Spokesman Jerry W.

Friedheim said Gen. Creighton Abrams, the U.S. commander in Vietnam, has authority to use whatever action necessary to protect the 68,000 American troops still in the war zone. Decatur Central Pupil Gunned Down On Lawn Before 28 Classmates By VICTOR L. BURFORD A macabre story of jealousy ended yesterday when a 16-year-old Decatur Central High School youth was shot to death by his 18-year-old sister while 28 classmates watched in horror, the Marion County Sheriff's Department said.

Asked about Friedheim's remarks, White House deputy press secretary Gerald L. Warren said, "There is no change in our position." Friedheim stressed that Abrams "has a great deal of flexibility" to determine the composition of the American force in Vietnam. He indicated that Abrams could replace support type troops with additional combat forces from outside Vietnam.

in Vietnam, the U.S. command has brought in from Germany helicopters equipped with new guided Turn to Page 17, Column 1 Hijacker Demands New HE INDICATED this could include bringing ashore as an emergency safety measure some or all of the 7,000 Marines now aboard 7th Fleet ships in the South China Sea. Abrams, Friedheim said, also could beef up U.S. combat strength in Vietnam by substituting some noncombat-support personnel with combat troops, provided within the approved manpower level set by President Nixon. The Pentagon also said the United States will reopen a base in Thailand to handle the new increase in U.S.

air power for the war in Southeast Asia. FRIEDHEIM SAID the bae at Takhli, north of Bangkok, will be used again on an emergency basis. The site, he said, is the destination for 72 F-4 Phantom fighter bombers being flown from New Mexico. The base brings to six (he total of U.S. bases for mounting strikes in Indochina.

Relying extensively on air power, the administration plans to cut troop strength in Vietnam to about 49,000 by July 1. Since the start of the North Vietnamese offensive six weeks ago, both Secretary of State William P. Rogers and Secretary of Defense Melvin R. Laird have said repeatedly that no American combat ground troops would be sent back into the war zone. FRIEDHEIM REAFFIRMED that position only Monday when newsmen asked about the possibility of a Marine landing to protect U.S.

forces. "That would be regarded as a reintroduction of ground forces and that's what the secretary of state said we would not do," he replied. But yesterday, Friedheim refused to rule out that possibility, saying "I would not" consider such an action a resumption of U.S. ground combat responsibility. "It is not our intention to resume the ground combat responsibility in South Vietnam," Friedheim said.

He indicated that use of Marines or other foroes to protect or evacuate U.S. support troops would fall within the U.S. security role. AMERICAN TROOPS still in Vietnam include about six battalions of Army infantry, about 6,000 men whose U.S. FOKCK 7,000 STKONG CARRIER DELIVERED PER WK.

"There is strong interest in our organization to continue to support what we consider to be important for the school system for the entire city. We should study the policies and practices which the board undertakes and testify before the board whenever we have something to contribute," he said.

(AP) A Western Airlines jet was hijacked yesterday en route from Salt Lake City and arrived in Dallas shortly after midnight after a flight from Los Angeles with the crew operating at gunpoint.

The hijacker first said he wanted to go to Hanoi, then demanded to be flown to Cuba. In the two hours the plane was on the ground in Los Angeles, 11 of the 7 passengers were allowed to deplane. A crew of six also was aboard the medium-range, twin-engine jet. A POLICE spokesman at Dallas Love Field said the plane was delayed somewhat by inclement weather in its flight from Los Angeles. The Federal Aviation Administration regional office at Fort Worth, although it previously had referred all press calls to Washington confirmed that "the Western 337 arrived at 12:17 a.m." (EST).

A cordon of about 75 FBI agents, FAA personnel and Dallas police all heavily armed, kept newsmen out of sight of the airplane. Dallas police set up a command post but were able to furnish little information. There was no immediate indication of the situation of the crew or passen- Turn to Page 17, Column 1 Today's Prayer I must confess, God, my sin of self-indulgence.

Amen. The United States Command, for the first time in the Vietnam war, yesterday introduced helicopters equipped with the highly accurate guided missile "TOW" (acronym for tube-launched, optically tracked, wire-guided), the Command reported. The TOW missile carries a high explosive warhead that the Army claims can pierce the armor of any tank in Disabled he had a powerful explosive he could set off instantaneously and it would blow up everyone around. "He said if anything happens, he will ignite it and both planes and all concerned will go," the control tower said over the radio. The men towing the substitute plane radioed back, "Well, you can assure him, no hanky panky is planned." THE HIJACKER refused an effort to provide him a fresh crew although the crew on the plane had been with him since 10 a.m.

yesterday. He also demanded that the Air Force quit tailing him in chase planes. "The captain of 135 doesn't want a chase plane," the tower said. "The hijacker says it would be better that we don't try to tail the aircraft after it leaves here." The hijacker took over the plane leaving Allentown, flew to Dulles International Airport and took off after collecting ransom money and six parachutes. But then he made the plane circle the Washington area for 5 hours and returned to Dulles because -the size of the bills didn't suit him.

HE HAD DEMANDED payment in bills of $100, $500 and $1,000, apparently to make a lighter bundle for a parachute getaway. The airline originally paid him in $100 bills, the largest they could get on short notice. The airplane landed a second time at Dulles, refueled and took off again shortly after 8 p.m. The pilot requested clearance to New Orleans. An Eastern spokesman said the packet of $100 bills had been swapped Turn to Page 17, Column 1 115 Die In Jel Crash In Sicily The shooting occurred about 1:30 p.m.

about 300 feet from the school, located at 5251 Kentucky Avenue. AUTHORITIES later uncovered what they considered a tragic story of jealous rivalry between the two children of Mr. and Mrs. James L. Jenkins, 3852 Koll-man Road.

According to witnesses, George was attending a Spanish class being conducted on the lawn about 300 feet from the school building. Mildred reportedly walked out of the school building about 1:30 p.m., approached the class and asked the teacher if she could speak to her brother. Witnesses said the pair walked a few feet away from their classmates. They said they then heard George scream, then a gunshot. They told investigators George then ran screaming until he collapsed on the ground about 100 feet away.

Donald Urich, a student at the school, reported he witnessed the slaying from a doorway of the school. SHERIFF'S Detective Sgt. Floyd L. Roney said tTiat the girl, according to witnesses, placed the pistol on the grass and turned and walked away, then fell to the ground and moaned, "Oh my God, why did I do it?" The Decatur Township rescue squad rushed to the scene, but pronounced George dead. Mildred, a senior, faces a charge of first-degree murder and will appear in Municipal Court, Room 10, today.

Deputies said they found a box of live ammunition in a girls' restroom inside the school. Authorities said they were investigating a report that she had purchased the weapon recently from a Southside Indianapolis resident. WITNESSES to the slaying said Mildred seemed "unemotional" before the shooting and that nobody had seen the pistol when she approached her brother's class. Roney said that in a statement given later by Mildred to investigators she had admitted having taken drugs in the past, but he said there was no indication she was under the influence of drugs at the time of the shooting.

Valdez trailing her ticket but still defeating incumbent Robert D.

DeFrantz, current school board president. THE NON-PARTISANS slate has claimed it lost almost 2,000 votes in 16 inner-city precincts because the supply of paper ballots ran out near the end of the voting day. Given the 2,000 votes, however, the only winner who could be challenged would be Mrs. Valdez, whose margin of victory was less than 2,000. Thomas W.

Binford, Non-Partisans chairman, said his group will meet to consider whether to file a challenge to the results. Richard McClamroch, canvassing board supervisor, said the Non-Partisans have 15 days to take the issue to court. Binford said he hoped the winners Marines Off DMZ Await Nod To Go In Jet As First New Orleans, La. (Saturday) (AP) A hijacker, holding an Eastern Air Lines crew of six at gunpoint, demanded that the airline provide a new plane for him here early today, and one was towed onto the runway. The Boeing 727 Whisperjet he commandeered some 14 hours earlier in Pennsylvania remained parked near the end of the main runway at New Orleans International Airport, disabled by what the airline called hydraulic problems.

THE HIJACKER evidently still had the $303,000 ransom and six parachutes he collected in return for releasing the 48 passengers and one stewardess at Washington's Dulles Airport earlier in the evening. In radio communications between Eastern's crowded operations office and the captive 727, the hijacker said if anything happens while the plane change was made, "the captain will be the first to get it." The captain, reporting again a few minutes later, said the hijacker told him brigade under present orders would be to rescue U.S. personnel ashore in South Vietnam should the Communists score a major break-through. In addition, they would attempt to evacuate key South Vietnamese leaders as well as persons of intelligence importance. CONTINGENCY plans do exist, however, for various types of assault landings by the 9th Brigade on the enemy flank.

The coastal areas paralleling Route 1 between Quang Tri and Hue include miles of excellent beaches suitable for seaborne landings. In addition, the Marine helicopter squadrons which comprise part of the brigade could put Marines ashore as deep as 50 miles inland. Should the U.S. base at Phu Bai be endangered, 9th Brigade Marines could go in by helicopter to protect the 2,000 U.S. Army troops now there.

Alternatively, they could enter Hue by landing craft via the Ferfume River.

Four of the winners will take office July 1 to comprise a majority of the board. They will be joined by the three remaining winners on July 1, 1974.
