THE TENNESSEAN, Mondoy, March 30, 198) Way Clear For April 10 Liftoff Space Shuttle Passes Final Two Tests I Wrestler Don Fargo Draws Pot Tefirrf Professional wrestler Don Fargo has Fargo, 52, has done little profession Fargo left Nashville the day after the search and was not arrested on-the drug charges until after he 1 was charged with drunk driving in Daphne, last May, police said. Have The Tennessean been sentenced to one year in prison after pleading guilty to marijuana possession charges. Fargo, whose legal name is Donald V. Kalt, pleaded guilty in Criminal Court last week to a charge of possessing more than two pounds of marijuana for the purpose of resale. HIS ATTORNEYS, Dave Alexander and Don Harris of Franklin, asked Criminal Court Judge Raymond H.

Leathers for an expedited hearing on Fargo's petition for suspension of the one-year prison sentence since, Harris said, Fargo has obtained a job in a fac al wrestling in recent months, Harris said. Metro Vice Squad officers filed the marijuana charges against Fargo after they and federal firearms agents said they found two pounds of packaged marijuana while serving a federal search warrant for illegal weapons and dynamite on Fargo's residence in the Hilltop House apartments in June 1979. THE OFFICERS said they also found 30 live marijuana plants, seven guns and Ku Klux Klan paraphenalia in the search. No federal charges were ever brought against Fargo as a result of the raid. delivered to your home.

By IKE FLORES CAPE CANAVERAL (AP) The space shut- tie came through two final fueling tests in excellent shape, clearing the way for an April 10 liftoff for the Columbia's much-delayed maiden voyage, launch director George Page said yes- I terday. 73-hour launch countdown could begin Sunday at 10:30 p.m. CST, Page said. An offi-rial launch date for the reusable spacecraft's first mission must await a flight readiness re- view today at the Kennedy Space Center by program directors of the $8 billion program. "WE FEEL THE 10TH is a viable launch date," Page said after a "hands-on" inspection of the two critical fuelings of the 15-story tank, which feeds the or biter's three main engines.

The Columbia is to return to Earth on air Coll 254-5661 or AN ACCIDENT BOARD inquiry into the launch pad incident 10 days ago in which one worker died and another was critically injured will not delay liftoff, Page said. The inquiry board may, however, recommend revisions in safety procedures, he said: In explaining the accident board's investigation, Page and National Aeronautics and Space Administration information officer Hugh Harris said the inquiry might last beyond the launch. Page said it would be correct to say that safety procedures had been "tightened" because of the accident, which occurred when workers mistakenly entered a chamber filled with nitrogen. The shuttle is intended as the workhorse of the U.S. space program, replacing single-use rockets.

It will carry experiments, astronauts and scientists into orbit and then return them to Earth. (ZrHM tory Houston, Texas. Meet the man who does the most important job on earth. He's Don Little: outdcorsman, father, teacher. The work he docs with Sth grade students at Cole Elementary means that a lot of kids who might never have seen high school go on to brighter, more productive futures.

There's just one problem: Don can't v. make a living doing that job. To support his 1 family, Don Little, the teacher, has sold household plane-type wings for a landing at Edwards Air Force Base in California after its first 54-hour orbital flight. The flight is over two years be-o hind schedule. Basically, both tests were successful," Page said.

"We have absolutely no debonding THE FUEL LOADING tests Wednesday and "Friday, which involved the loading of 526,000 of super-cold liquid oxygen and hydrogen, were designed to test cork insulation on "the surface of the aluminum tank. About 32 insulation tiles came unglued in a isimilar test in January. The tiles are intended US. protect the shuttle from the searing heat of 3-entry into the atmosphere. The delicate job tt installing the tiles was a major reason for 'the delayed liftoff.

"'Page said technicians and engineers who checked the silo-like tank found "a few foam, cracks" that can readily be fixed. A sprayed-on foam covers the cork tiles. HE SAID THE LAUNCH preparation sched-; ule now being followed actually leads to a launch date of April 9. But he said later he felt date would be "too optimistic." And he said he wants to give the launch team a day off before liftoff. STiPage said cracks in the foam and other mi--ior problems would be corrected this week, as "pre-launch servicing of power units continues.

IZZ'On. Thursday, Friday and Saturday we will the final preparations and pick up the launch countdown on Sunday night," he said. products, pumped gas, driven tour busses, anything to make some extra money. He puts it this way: The most obvious problem is that teachers don't make a living wage. The other big problem is lack of support from the public.

Teachers are afraid to even raise their voices in the classroom, no matter how bad the discipline problem may be. Don has taken the advanced degree for an administrative job, a move that would take him out of the classroom he loves. The sad fact is that if we can't support good teachers like Don with higher salaries and more understanding of the 1 difficult jobs they do we're going to lose them. And when we do, we'll lose the best hope our kids have for the future. The Metropolitan Nashville Education Association is fighting to make sure this doesn't happen.
