(AP)-Four should be encouraged to play golf or tennis "whenever his schedule will permit." After the chief executive underwent a full physical checkup at the Bethesda, Naval Medical Center, Rear Adm. William M. Lukash told newsmen Ford was fitter than he was a year' Arrested In Family Deaths Former Army doctor Jeffrey MacDonald, 31, bottom right, was arrested in Hungington Beach, Friday on charges of murder in connection with the 1970 stabbing deaths of his wife, Colette, bottom left, and two daughters, Kristen Jean, top left, and Kimberly, top right. Louis Giovannetti, special agent in charge of the FBI office in Charlotte, said the arrest warrant for MacDonald was issued in Charlotte on riaay.

MacDonald Faces Return To N. C. For Arraignment RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) Former Green Beret Capt. Jeffrey MacDonald is scheduled to be formally arrainged in Raleigh Feb.

18 on murder charges in the 1970 slayings of his wife and two daughters at Ft. Bragg. U.S. Dist. Atty.

Thomas P. McNamara said Saturday a hearing on MacDonald's return to North similar to an extradition proceeding, probably will be held early next week in before a U.S. magistrate. But, McNamara said, it may be several months before MacDonald is brought to trial because of possible motions by his attorney, Bernard Segal of San Francisco. In 42 States MacDonald, an emergency-room doctor at St.

Mary's Hospital in Long Beach, was arrested Friday at his home in Huntington Beach, Calif. He was placed in the Orange County. Jail in Santa Ana under $500,000 bond. A federal grand jury, which has been hearing evidence in the case intermittently since last August, returned a sealed envelope Friday containing the indictment. MacDonald's last appearance before the grand jury was Tuesday.

His wife, Collette, and their daughters, Kimberly and Kristen Jean, were beaten and stabbed to death Feb. 17 1970 in the family's apartment at Ft. Bragg. Sanford Effort Gains Support RALEIGH (AP) The Committee to Nominate Terry Sanford reported Saturday over $70,000 has been contributed from 42 states to finance an expected campaign by the former North Carolina Gov. Terry Sanford for the Democratic presidential nomination.

Hulett Smith, former governor of West Virginia who is heading up the funds drive for Sanford, said he is extremely pleased with the national support the effort has generated since Sanford concluded his chairmanship of the Democratic party's charter commission in December. "There is a sense of movement and solid support," Smith said. "We are receiving contributions from a great range of people and state. The kind of momentum we had hoped to find is established." Smith said Sanford had placed a $1,000 ceiling on contributions last October although larger amounts could have been received prior to Jan. 1.

According to Smith the report the committee will file with the Government Accounting Office Jan. 31, will show the contributors are mostly from North Carolina. However, they include Evelyn Lincoln, former secretary to President Kennedy, who wrote in her about the White House that Sanford was Kennedy's choice for vice president in 1964; John Seigenthaler, publisher of the Nashville Tennessean; Jonathan Daniels of Hilton Head, S.C., author and retired editor who served in the White House under presidents Roosevelt and Truman and J. B. Fuqua of Atlanta.

Sanford, now president of Duke University, is expected to announce in early spring whether or not he will seek the presidential nomination. Smith said a concerted effort will be made over the next three or four months to raise funds in at least half the states. Under the law substantial contributions must be received from at least 20 states in order for the candidate to qualify for matching funds from the income tax checkoff. MacDonald told Army investigators four hippie- types, chanting "Acid is groovy. Kill the entered the duplex and knocked him unconscious.

He said that when he regained consciousness he found his family dead and the word "Pig" scrawled in blood on the headboard of his bed. MacDonald received stab wounds in the attack. After a five-month investigation in 1970, the army dropped charges against MacDonald, saying the charges were "not true." Segal said MacDonald protested to the grand jury earlier this week that government officials opened the Long Island, N.Y., graves of his wife and daughters without his permission. Segal said he may ask that the trial be held somewhere in California rather than in North Carolina. "It certainly is a clear issue to ask for," he said.

"I don't think there is a major witness in the case left in North Carolina." McNamara said he would oppose removal of the trial. But he added Segal "has a good point to a certain extent since the witnesses are living outside North Carolina. Some of the Army investigators are now overseas." He said he had not conferred with attorneys who worked on the case. Victor Worheide, trial attorney with the U.S. Justice Department's criminal division in Washington, has handled the case, McNamara said.

SALEM, of 11 prisoners who staged a mass escape from the Roanoke County jail Friday night remained at large Saturday. Police called them "extremely dangerous" and issued a multi-state alarm. Sheriff 0. S. Foster said four escapees "as far as we know got a car from somewhere" and fled the area.

Police across Virginia and in North Carolina, Maryland and West Virginia were alerted. The four men were believed to be armed with a pistol, stolen from the jail, and at least two knives, police said. Jailer Jim Suit said the mass escape occurred when one prisoner produced a knife and "put it right to my neck" as he was taking a television set into the cellblock in which the inmates were held. The prisoners then took Suit's revolver from a locked drawer in which it had been placed according to jail routine, found another knife, and fled, Foster said. The sheriff said shots were fired outside the jail as the men ran away and that one of them fell as though he had been wounded.

He would not say who fired the shots. Seven of the escapees were captured after only brief freedom five near the jail within 30 minutes, two others six hours later in an an abandoned house trailer three miles away, in which they had hidden. Those still at large Saturday were identified as Nelson Bradford, 36, of Baltimore, who Foster said may have been wounded in the shooting outside the jail; Thomas William Robinson, 21, of Roanoke; Jerry Reeves, 42, of Galax, and James L. Thomas, 31 of Roanoke. "We regard them as extremely dangerous," the sheriff said.

Three of the four were awaiting trial Bradford for armed robbery and malicious wounding, Reeves for armed robbery, and Thomas for statutory burglary and grand larceny. Robinson had been convicted of distributing drugs and sentenced to five years in prison. He was awaiting transfer to the State Penitentiary in Richmond. Foster said authorities had not discovered where the inmates got the knife with which they threatened Suit. "Later, in a formal statement, the presidential physician said the tests at Bethesda "indicate nothing that will prevent him from enjoying good health in the foreseeable future." Ford spent nearly four hours at the hospital but part of the time was spent getting fitted with a pair of contact lenses he ordered nearly six months ago.

Lukash said: "Beginning Monday he will use the contact lenses for a short time each day to determine whether he wants to wear them on a regular basis." Asked at the hospital about the general state of Ford's health, Lukash said it was better than a year ago when Vice President Ford, on Jan. 28, went to Bethesda for his last annual physical exam. Lukash attributed this to exercise and diet. In his statement, the Navy physician said, "The results of all medical tests were normal in every way." He went on: "I do not find it necessary to make any new recommendations for changes in his day-to-day living habits. Since the Presi- 'dent and I talked last September concerning a proper diet and ideal weight, the President has maintained his weight at around 195 pounds, which I consider to be ideal weight for him.

"His early morning exercise program, involving.use of a stationary bicycle device, has been very effective in maintaining his excellent health condition. I will encourage the President to play golf or tennis whenever his schedule will permit. The excellent state of the President's health will permit him to continue his tremendous capacity for hard work." Resigned President 'Richard M. Nixon's doctors used to urge their patient to get away from the job when possible and relax. Only occasionally did Nixon spend weekends in the White 1 House.

Ford leaves Washington only occasionally on weekends and is an enthusiastic golfer and tennis player. Lack of a White House swimming pool has curbed his participation in that sport. NEED HELP?
