NEW YORK (AP) Slain violinist Helen Hagnes Mintiks was eulogized Tuesday in music and words as a "quiet, special, caring person" who believed in reincarnation. "She was an incredibly giving person," said Barbara Bogatin, with whom the Canadian-born Mrs.

Mintiks played chamber music at St. Peter's Church the site of the memorial service for 10 years. Because Mrs. Mintiks was a quiet person with "an inner spirit," violinist Elmar Olivera played as an appropriate musical tribute to woman murdered last week at the Metropolitan Opera House, Bach's Minor Adagio from the First Solo Sonata." Ruth Buffington, another friend, 'said Mrs. Mintiks was beautiful and talented, but that many of the inhabitants of this planet are.

ing, empathy for her fellow human being and her luminosity," she said. "Those are the things will never forget. So for me, she will continue to live." "She was a complete musician (who approached her work) with love and depth," 'said pianist Judith Olson, who first met Mrs. while they were both students at the Juilliard School. Miss Olson recalled how last summer she, Mrs.

Mintiks and Miss Bogatin had played chamber music together on a boat ride down the Nile 'River. Another close friend, Yuki Erwin, revealed to the 225 persons gathered for the service that the murder victim "believed in the spirit and in reincarnation." Mrs. Mintiks believed that during a previous life she had lived in Egypt, a theory Mrs. Mintiks confirmed when she visited that country on last year's trip, the woman said. Following that journey, according to Mrs.

Erwin, Mrs. Mintiks asked that "if anything ever happened to her, that her ashes be taken to the River Nile. Janis, her husband, is taking her, as he had promised." The trip. to the Nile will have to wait, however, as officials at the chief medical examiner's office said Tuesday that Mrs. Mintiks's body still had not been released.

Police, meanwhile, remained baffled by the case. Another memorial service for the native of British Columbia, Canada, is scheduled for Friday near Vancouver, where she lived until 1969. In her brief remarks, Mrs. Erwin wondered aloud if there might be some justification for the violent death of Mrs. Mintiks.

She replied: "I hope that some day her spirit will reveal the answer to us." The most touching moment of the service came when, the Rev. John Gensel, associate pastor -of the church, read a brief message from the slain woman's husband of nearly four years, who sat grieving in the second pew. "Anniveraries were very. special. always did something different breakfast in bed, candlelight dinners and lots of romance.

Assemblyman Stephen Saland said Tuesday that a "serious manpower shortage" could reduce the state police to "nothing more than a highway patrol." The Poughkeepsie Republican was joined by Dutchess County Legislator Fran Mark, D-Clinton, in calling for action by the state legislature to beef up manpower in the state police. According to a state police spokesman, there are currently 3,499 troopers in the state, 280 less than the maximum number authorized.

Saland and Mark predicted the manpower, shortage will get. "much worse in two years because a large number of troopers will be eligible retirement by the end of 1982. Saland said part of the problem would have been solved if a proposed 140-person training class had been held this summer. The class was canceled when the legislature failed-to appropriate funds for it. Saland claimed that the state treasury has enough money to fund.

a number of state police training. classes to increase manpower. "Even though we're only three months into the 1980-81 fiscal he said, "the state is already $220 million ahead of the budget estimates the governor reported to the legislature." He said discussions with local state police authorities have convinced him and Mrs. Mark that at least 400 more men will be needed across The state in the next two years. A state police spokesman said more than 1,000 troopers will be eligible for retirement in the next two years.

Saland said the problem is very severe at Troop headquartered in Washington Hollow. Saland said manpower at. Troop which embraces Dutchess, Columbia, Putnam and Westchester counties, has dropped by about 15 percent in six years, "and that number. will only decrease due to the inability of the state police to replace troopers lost through normal attrition." Mrs. Mark agreed.

"As the ranks of the troopers are further decreased," 'she said, "there will be even fewer replacements. This could result in. the troopers' Rhinebeck post being responsible for emergency calls in the Town of 15 miles away." 15 miles away." SAVE ON SIZE ANY Natural.
