But Stowe explained to Weinberg that Thurmond wanted to do it quietly to "protect himself all the way around." LAST WEEK, Thurmond' testi fied he would never take any money to introduce legislation, and had never been approached by Stowe or Jenrette about it. He ij called Jenrette a "lying skunk" for telling undercover agents he could be bought.

ROBINSON MAINTAINS that call was the FBI's first contact with Stowe after the FBI decided to "target" Jenrette in its Abscam probe in which agents ftosed as representatives of a ficticious Arab sheik seeking special favors from politicians. Last week, Amoroso said there would have too much of a security risk to have tape recording equipment around a hospitality suite set up in an Atlantic City hotel by the FBI to make contact with New Jersey politicians and businessmen. But recalled to the witness stand yesterday Amoroso acknowledged there were recorders used to tape conversations in the suite, although there were no devices to bug a phone call.

WARTA, 30, who lives in Mur-freesboro, was on his way home from work on Halls Hill Pike about 11 p.m. Tuesday when he picked up a 20-year-old woman hitchhiker, according to authorities here. "He was In uniform, in his pri-' vate vehicle, when he picked her up," said Sgt.

t)avid Grisham of the Rutherford County sheriff's office. Grisham quoted the victim as saying she became suspicious when the officer pulled his truck onto Kittrell Road, then onto a gravel road. Warta parked the vehicle and allegedly tried to rape the woman, the sergeant said. "SHE FOUGHT him and got away," Grisham said, adding that the woman said her assailant did not try to follow. The woman ran to a house on Kittrell Road and called the sheriff's office shortly after midnight, officers said.

"WHEN WE FIRST got started about five years ago, TVA gave $90,000 for a feasibility study but DOE didn't take us seriously at all," said Swinehart, vice president of Sanders and Thomas Engineers.

Since then, TVA provided a $2 million low-interest loan towards construction and the Economic Development Agency provided a $1.5 million grant. Several studies have been conducted on the practicality of the technology, which is in use in Japan, and the plant is expected to pay for itself.
