"tiPAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1971 ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH Ichord Refuses Governor Race Wanted Man Hurt Trying To Escape NEW SHOW BEGINS NOW i MCDONNELL PLANETARIUM By a Special Correspondent of the Post-Dispatch BOSTON, Sept. 24 Malik Hakim, a former St. Louisan wanted on charges of attempted murder, rape and armed robbery, suffered leg injuries yesterday when he tried to escape from police seeking to arrest him for extradition to Missouri. Hakim, who changed his name here from Albert Bradford, suffered ruptured tendons in both knees when he jumped from an eight-foot wall behind the Joint Center for Community Relations, where he worked.

Police reported that i troopers had gone to the center to serve extradition papers signed Wednesday night by Gov. Francis W. Sargent. As the officers entered, Hakim ran out a back door and jumped from the wall. He was taken to City Hospital, where he was expected to remain several weeks before being transferred to Missouri.

Hakim, who came here from St. Louis in 1968, is also wanted in St. Louis for violation of his parole from the Missouri Penitentiary, where he served 17 years of a life sentence for armed robbery and rape. His identity was discovered 1 by' the Federal Bureau of In-i vestigation when he recently applied for a passport under given name. He had been v.booked as a fugitive and released on $50,000 bond pending extradition proceedings.

In Boston, Hakim made no attempt to conceal his true identity. Of late, he had been employed as a motivator at the Joint Center, a coalition of social service groups working in the ghetto. The charges pending against Hakim stem from the rape and beating of a woman clerk in an art supply shop in Clayton on Aug. 26, 1968. The victim, a mother of four children, suffered stab wounds of the chest, neck and abdomen, and a depressed skull fracture apparently caused by a blow with a claw hammer.

The woman described her assailant as a man who worked in the neighborhood and who had been in the store that day. When St. Louis police went to Hakim's house they were told that he had departed. Hakim has denied the charges. Petitions asking that Hak-m be permitted to continue his work in the Boston black community have been signed by more than 5000 persons.

Several of Hakim's supporters asked the Governor last night to reconsider his decision. "I felt I had no alternative because of the seriousness of the charges," Sargent said. "But I will get in touch with Missouri officials and tell them of his work here and his leadersivo role in the community. He will have his day in court." way.

Ichord said he would a 8 been forced to compromise his principles in order to obtain the necessary financial and political support to be a successful candidate. "I would rather be a stray hound dog baying at the moon before I would compromise those principles," he declared. Ichord said he had felt up until recent days that he could obtain the necessary support to enter the contest. This support did not materialize, he said.

In many cases, persons he expected to support him had already pledged support to another candidate, he said. Speaking of his plans for reelection, Ichord said he favored letting the Missouri General Assembly redistrict the state's 10 Congressional districts rather than turning the job over to the federal courts. A three-judge panel is to hold a hearing Oct. 15 to determine whether it should draw the new boundaries. Paul W.

Preisler, a St. Louis lawyer, has filed a suit requesting the court do the job. "This is not the responsibility of the judxiary," Ichord said. "It is a political decision. It is a responsibility of the Legislature and it should do the redistrict-ing." In a related development Harry Wiggins, western judge of the Jackson County (Kansas City) court, filed today in Jefferson City for the Democratic nomination for state treasurer.

Wiggins, 39 years old, was state liquor control supervisor from 1967 to 1970. Wiggins said he was happy in his post as Jackson County judge, but that the office would be abolished in January 1973 when a new county charter goes into effect. By The Post-Dispatch Jefferson City Correspondent JEFFERSON CITY, Sept. 24 Representative Richard H. Ichord Houston, who was considered certain until recent days to become a candidate for the Democratic nomination for Governor said today he would not enter the race.

Instead, he said he would file for reelection to Congress from the eighth district. Ichord, who is serving his sixth term in Congress, said that he had not been able to gain enough support to become a candidate in the crowded Democratic primary. Three major candidates have filed and others are expected to get in the contest. They already are campaigning extensively although the primary election is more than 10 months away. Ichord acknowledged this situation in a brief written statement released at a press conference in the State Capitol.

He called the primary campaign an "unusual and complicated political race" because of the early spirited campaigns being conducted. Ichord said he had polled Democratic committee members in Missouri asking for their opinion of his candidacy. Ten per cent of them responded and about 80 per cent of these urged him to become a candidate for Governor, he said. However, of the more than 300 committee members responding, almost half said he should not give up his seniority in Congress, he said. Ichord, 45 years old, is chairman of the House Committee on Internal Security, formerly the House un-American Activities Committee.

Despite his withdrawal, Ichord said he might become actively involved in the gubernatorial campaign. However, he declined to throw his support to any particular candidate or to assess the strengths of the various candidates. The unexpected strength of State Senator Earl R. Blackwell of Hillsboro was believed to be a major factor in Ichord's deci-cision. Party leaders have become seriously concerned about Blackwell's following.

Promoter Fined In Kiel 31elee Council Is Urged On Child Services A council on children's services should be created to provide a co-ordinated program on juvenile delinquency, Joseph P. Teasdale, candidate for the Democratic nomination for governor, said last night. Teasdale, who is Jackson County prosecuting attorney, spoke before the South St. Louis County Chamber of Commerce.

He said the council on children's services should be composed of experts drawn from existing agencies in tne juvenile delinquency field. A co-ordinated effort, Teas-dale said, would end the building of "institutional failures" such as the Boonville Training School for Boys. A juvenile delinquency program should contain the proper mix of discipline, supervision and education according to individual needs, Teasdale said. News Capsules SPRINGFIELD, Sept. 24 (AP) Gov.

Richard B. Ogil-vie today announced veto of a controversial bill to require a year's residence in Illinois as a condition for receiving public aid. Ogilvie was advised by Attorney General William J. Scott Tuesday in a letter that the bill was unconstitutional. Scott said in the letter: "While welfare costs may be otherwise reduced by legislative and administrative changes, a residency requirement is an unconstitutional method of cost reduction because it denies equal protection of the laws to all persons and is thus violative of the United States Constitution." The rationale of the legislature in adopting the bill had been in part that other states had adopted similar laws and courts had ruled that they might be acceptable if they The promoter of a rock music concert that led to a melee Aug.

Those injured included three policemen. Altogether six persons were arrested in rioting that began at 11:15 p.m., when a rock group stopped in the middle of a number because the crowd was too boisterous.

The rioting lasted until about midnight. The promoter, Thomas Karr, Memphis, was accused of demanding that police release a man they had arrested. He said he had been trying to calm the audience when he had seen policemen hitting a handcuffed man with night sticks. He said he had asked if that was necessary and had been told to mind his own business. Reavis D.

He criticized the federally sponsored medicaid program as one that had "failed the patient, robbed the taxpayer and become a nightmare for the doctor." The Governor noted that cooperative efforts between the state government and the medical profession had led to the establishment of a network of regional trauma centers throughout Illinois. "In so doing, we have substantially reduced the likelihood of an accident victim dying in an emergency room for want of specialized treatment," he said. Physicians must make particular effort to meet the medical needs of inner-city residents who lack effective health care facilities, he asserted.
