School officials are planning an anti-violence program for high school students in response to the abduction and slaying of Sarah Hansen, 16, a Muhlenberg South High honors student.

The Muhlenberg County school system said the program, resembling anti-drug and AIDS-awareness programs for middle school students, is still in planning stages but is tentatively scheduled for March 21. It will focus on safety and violence prevention, District Supervisor Wesdie Webb told school board members Monday night. Robert Keith Woodall, 22, has been arrested and charged in Sarah's death. Metcalfe superintendent plans to retire EDMONTON, Ky. Elam Carlton said he will step down as superintendent of the Metcalfe County school system at the end of the week.

Carlton, 63, told the school board at its Monday night meeting that he decided to retire after three years in the post for personal reasons. "I'm going to do some traveling, and we had some illness in the family," he said yesterday. "I'm going to spend more time on the farm, and after 43 years in education I'll look at life from a different perspective." The Metcalfe district is under investigation by the state for possible mismanagement, and state Education Commissioner Bill Cody has threatened to take over the system. Two colleges team up on accelerated degree MIDWAY, Ky. Students can start working on an accelerated bachelor's degree next month through a partnership announced yesterday between Midway College and Maysville Community College's Licking Valley Center in Cynthiana.

Officials said the arrangement is one of the region's first collaborations between a private and public institutions and addresses Gov. Paul Patton's call for a more active cooperation among the state's colleges. "Our partnership demonstrates that private colleges need to be part of the higher-education reform in this state," said Midway President Robert Botkin. "This agreement is a good model for future cooperation between private and public institutions." The four-year degree program in organizational management, currently offered on Midway's campus, is designed for working adults who seek to reduce their time in the classroom. The program is aimed at people who have already completed some college and are willing to continue toward a degree in an accelerated program.

A group of 15 to 20 students will form the first class and attend classes one night a week. Small classes, personal instruction and job-related research will be emphasized, and students will be challenged to apply classroom learning to their workplaces. Carter will visit Morehead homebuilders MOREHEAD, Ky. Former President Jimmy Carter is scheduled to visit Morehead June 17 during a weeklong homebuilding project in Appalachia. Fifty homes will be constructed at seven sites six in Kentucky and one in Tennessee.

Carter is expected to visit each site. Six houses will be built in Morehead during the 1997 Hammering in the Hills Jimmy Carter Work Project. Partly because of security concerns relating to Carter, drop-in volunteers will not be allowed during the project. Habitat in Morehead is taking applications for volunteers until this Saturday. Only people who go through the application process will be allowed to work.

Judge acquits woman, 72, in pot-growing case ASHLAND, Ky. A federal judge decided there wasn't enough evidence for a jury to decide whether to convict a "72-year-old, gray-haired great-grandmother" of conspiring with her two sons to run a multimillion-dollar marijuana-growing operation and acquitted her. "It is very unlikely that any rational juror would find this person guilty beyond a reasonable doubt," U.S. District Judge Henry R. Wil-hoit Jr.

said of Thelma Frost of Olive Hill. Wilhoit sustained a motion for directed verdict from Frost's attorney and acquitted her of all four counts she'd been facing. Frost and her sons, James Frost, 40, and Donald Frost 49, were indicted in July. They were accused of conspiring to maintain a marijuana operation that authorities alleged netted them more than $2 million between early 1992 and early 1996. The brothers' trial will now resume.

'Date rape' drug found; traveler arrested COVINGTON, Ky. U.S. Customs Service agents said a Muskegon, woman with 700,000 frequent-flyer miles was taken into custody at CincinnatiNorthern Kentucky International Airport on suspicion of smuggling the "date rape" drug Rohypnol into the United States. In court records released Monday, the agency said it had been tracking Brickelle Berson since October. She was arrested Sunday, and made her initial appearance Monday in U.S.

District Court in Covington before being returned to jail. Customs agents said they found six Rohypnol tablets in Berson's carry-on luggage during a search at the airport after she arrived on a Delta flight from Paris.

New York has received a lot of attention in the past year because the number of homicides has dropped dramatically from a peak of 2,262 homicides in 1990 to 984 last year, according to The New York Times. Some criminal justice experts have attributed New York's success to a more aggressive policing strategy that includes pushing decision-making to lower levels, cracking down on petty offenses and using computer mapping to target areas with the highest crime. But Abramson was sarcastic about the city, which Money magazine recently rated as slightly safer than Louisville.

"They're down to three murders a day, and it's really good in New York," he joked. Louisville had 68 homicides last year. New York had a homicide rate of 13 per 100,000 people last year, while an analysis by The Courier-Journal determined that the rate in Louisville was 25 per 100,000. Civil rights activist Louis Coleman has been urging city government to adopt measures aimed at crack houses, such as requiring landlords to evict tenants involved in drug trafficking. Abramson said his program will include measures aimed at crack cocaine, but he declined to say more.

"I think it's obvious crack cocaine and violent crime go hand in hand." The aldermen compiled a list of 37 suggestions to combat crime. The proposals did not include a price tag, but Magre said that for both the mayor's and the aldermen's proposals, "the main issue is: Are we ready to spend some money to really attack this?"
