By the latter part of the decade, rurat rates of depression were equal to that; of urban areas, doubling among rural populations. With mental illness comes creased spouse and child abuse, sub- stance abuse, family dissolution and suicides, he said. However, though depression is among the most treatable of mental illnesses, the scarcity of mental I health workers, lack of transporta- tion and the stigma attached to the illness keep most rural victims from 1 getting treatment.

Paul Delougli; ery, University of Iowa Scottish High-landers' pipe major, will lead the' group's spring concert at 3 p.m. Sat-; urday in Macbride Auditorium. By TOM CARNEY Kaelttar Stall Wrttar MARSHALL, MINN. Being a farmer isn't just a matter of what you do, but of who you are. So when you lose your farm, you lose your identity as well as your job.

People in that situation, said Michael Thompson, executive director of the Iowa FarmerCreditor Mediation Service, often need help to realize they're "still human beings who have worth apart from their economic situation." Thompson was among six Iowans and dozens of others who participated here Thursday in what Dr. Frederick Goodwin, administrator of the federal Alcohol, Drug Abuse and Mental Health Administration, called a "landmark event in the history of mental health." Members of Congress, federal officials and experts heard from witnesses from across the country at the first of three public hearings on "Mental Illness in America." Thursday's session, "Mental Health in Rural America," is to be followed in July by a hearing in Los Angeles on child and adolescent mental illness. A third hearing, scheduled for late this year at a site to be chosen, will be on mental disorders among the home less and other disadvantaged groups. The farm crisis of the mid-1980s caused untold mental and emotional problems for farmers, their families and whole communities, said Thompson, of West Des Moines. But much more attention has been given to economics.

"We should be trying to save the farm family," he said, "not just the family farm." The Rev. Richard Bruesehoff, a Lutheran pastor from Turtle Lake, said whole towns can "ride the downward spiral of depression." Discouragement, hopelessness and despair are written all over the faces of both individual and commu nity," he said. Goodwin said that although in the Jackpot to grow No one won the Lotto America jackpot Wednesday, so it will grow to J5 million for Saturday. HOME MOVIES TO VIDEO.

Johnston, 74; Theodore Schwartz, 74; Clifford is leaving town By MARY ANN LICKTEIG KaaHMr Stall Writer The lonely repairman just got lone lier. Newton still is home to Maytag manufacturer of appliances said to be so good its repairmen get the blues, but the man who makes wooly mammoths is leaving town. "It'd be a chance to expand profes sionally and financially both," said Neal Deaton, who is selling his busi ness, Deaton Studio, to a Minneapolis company. This summer Deaton will join Dis playMasters which designs mu seums and makes corporate trade show displays. His family, including artist and sculptor Blaine Haunsper ger Deaton's son-in-law will go with him.

For 31 years, Deaton, 60, has brought attention to his hometown by mounting animals, sculpting prehis tone beasts and creating one crea ture most people say doesn't exist. His customers include museums and national parks all over the United States and abroad. A bison, a longhorn steer, a grizzly bear and an appaloosa horse stand at the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial museum under the Gate way Arch in St. Louis. There's a recreated forest at the Trail of Tears State Park visitors center in southern Missouri, and an exhibit of plants found at five different elevations in Saudi Arabia.

The wooly mammoths are every where. Two stand outside the Cincin nati Museum of Natural History and one is indoors. In Iowa, Deaton's work can be seen at the State Historical Building in Des Moines and at Iowa Hall at the Uni versity of Iowa in Iowa City. Deaton Studio also has built a mastodon, a pteranodon, scale mod els of dinosaurs and several eohip puses four-toed prehistoric horses about the size of a dog. The strangest product, Deaton said, would have to be Bigfoot, commis sioned by an Iowa man.

Deaton worked for the Smithsonian Institution for four years before returning to Newton in 1959. At the Smithsonian, he mounted the giant African elephant that stands in the rotunda of the Museum of Natural History. His training includes a zoology class he took at Georgetown Univer sity and a few art classes. "I don't have a formal background in any thing," he said. "That's one of the parts I like about the business.

Tainted water found in river Continued from Page 1M ered by people trying to get minnows out of the creek around 7 p.m. Thursday. Steve Rodish, 47, of 1020 Ash-worth Road in West Des Moines, said he could see a film on the water and smell fumes that had the odor of gasoline or oil.

"The majority of the creek was covered" by the film downstream from the drainage pipe, he said. Rodish was on North Valley Drive where it crosses over the creek when he found the polluted water. A little farther south Walnut Creek empties into the Raccoon River, just up stream of the city's water works. plant. Police and fire officials traced the film from the North Valley Drive bridge to the storm sewer culvert about three-quarters of a mile away.

They then traced the storm sewer flow to the service station. The city's water supply apparently never was seriously threatened, District Fire Chief Charles Morgan said. Although some of the contaminated water reached the Raccoon River and then the water works plant "by then it was so diluted it shouldn't have caused any major problems," he said. Nonetheless, "you can't knowingly put contaminants into a possible source of drinking water. You just can't do that," Cannon said.

He added it wasn't possible to know how much of the contaminated water reached the creek because it was not known Thursday night how full the service station's sump tanks were. If the tanks were filled to near capacity, several thousand gallons of tainted water may have found its way into the creek, Cannon said. Satanism lures teens with sex Continued from Page 1M Moines child protection agency ask' ing how to identify satanism and re porting seeing signs of ritualistic child abuse cases in Polk County, Glenn said. Some teen-agers dabble in satan ism, the detectives said, because of role model influence from heavy metal rock groups who openly espouse devil worship. But the detectives said it can be frustrating for law enforcement offi cers to deal with satanism even when it is identified.

"This is a legal religion," Healy said. "Not everything they do is illegal."
