"We're still working on it, and sometime by the end of the week we'll have some information released on it," he said. The brother of one of the victims, Theodore Trala, 39, told the News-Journal papers his brother and Rapuano were shot to death in a drug transaction.

Police said they are investigating the possibility that the men were involved in a drug deal, but they have declined to say if they believe that version of the killings. eyes. He was last seen wearing a white shirt and dress pants. Police did not disclose the name of the bar so they could screen calls from people purporting to have 6een the man, Eubank said. Six people called police last Tuesday, and about two called on each successive day, Eubank said.

Most of the calls were from "people who thought he looked like someone they know," he said. Medical Examiner Dr. Ali Z. Hameli said Monday an autopsy Thomas J. Trala, 36, and Raymond Rapuano, 46, between late July and Aug.

FRONTS: Md. shopping center beset by vandalism Barn Warm Cold Stationary Forecasts 162.475 FM (Philadelphia, Salisbury), 162.55 FM (Lowes), 162.40 FM (Baltimore) By Beth Miller Newark Bureau reporter NORTH EAST, Md. Ordinarily, a shopping cart wouldn't seem out of place in a store. But this one had come through a plate-glass window of the Dollar General Store at Northeast Plaza.

The unusual deliveries didn't stop there. Over the past six weeks, a galvanized metal trash bin and 11 rocks also have been hurled through the store's windows. It's no wonder Diane Robinette is a bit nervous when she gets to work in the morning. "The first thing I do in the morning is look to see if there's any glass on the sidewalk," said Robinette, who has managed the store for the past year. That's what she found when she arrived on a recent Saturday, the morning after someone had shattered two of the huge windows.

"It took us until 1:30 to open the store," she said. "We had to take everything off the shelves and clean all the glass up. The vandalism at Northeast Plaza which has touched at least two other stores, according to Glenn Weinberg, who manages the property for Cordish Associates is one of the more serious problems that stem from loitering at the shopping center. The size and type of gatherings vary, said Arnold Swain, owner of Universal Video. Swain said he left his store one summer Saturday night to find about 50 kids lounging outside.

"No loitering" signs are posted and police have issued warnings, with about 75 drivers cited for parking violations in one week alone, according to Sgt. Steve Landbeck of the Maryland State Police. But what is needed most, Land- beck said, is a security guard for weekend nights, because state police cannot assume supervision of the site. State Police maintain a North East Barracks, but Weinberg said "they won't patrol unless you call them." Though the shopping center is not within the North East town limits, the town police patrol now and then as a courtesy, according to Mayor Chris Meekins. A security guard isn't necessarily the answer, said Peter Mione, co-owner of Frank's Pizza.

"That would put a guy's life in danger although most of the kids I know are pretty good," he said. "We've had a slight problem with kids drinking in the parking lot for about a year now," said Weinberg. "We've dealt with the police and the liquor control board. And I understand they've made some arrests. There are some bad kids there." Southeastern Pennsylvania Tonight: Partly cloudy, with a low in the upper-30s.

"But she went ahead and put in stalls." The Board of Adjustments "felt that the hardship was self-imposed," Ward said. "Theresas ample space on the property." Pulling houses four of her own horses in the barn, but has room for as many as 12. "What I hoped to do was rely on this to provide us with income to keep my family going until I get a college education," said Pulling, who has two sons, George, 11, and Jonathan, 4. She plans to enter Delaware Technical Community College in January to pursue a degree in business management. "We have worked so hard to make this work," she said.

"It's just torn me apart to think that the county could do this to me after all that I've been through already." Pulling may appeal the Board of Adjustment's decision to Superior Court, Ward said.

Thursday's meeting will begin at 7:30 p.m. in the board room of the district administration building, 83 E. Main Newark. It will be mostly organizational, Riley said. Committee meetings are open to the public, but only committee members will be allowed to speak.

Written comments may be submitted to the committee, Riley said. The committee will hold public hearings after it has studied the three proposed plans probably in mid-November, Riley said. Study: Radon high in Md. Associated Press The average radon reading in Maryland basements is twice the federal safety standard and higher than all but three of the 49 states examined in a study. Elevated radon levels were found in the triangle formed by Hagerstown, Baltimore and Washington.

Homes in Talbot, Cecil and Charles counties reported averages well within the suggested guidelines. Precipitation Precipitation yesterday: 011 inches Month to date: 1.94 inches Normal month to date: 2.23 inches Total for year 3161 inches Normal for year: 33 85 inches Deficit for year: 2.24 inches Degree days Christina, the largest district in the state, has grown by more than 2,000 students since 1984 and has reopened three schools since then. This fall, its enrollment gain was the highest ever more than 500 students, bringing total enrollment to only a few short of 17,000. "What the numbers are showing is we're going to have a real problem in the city of Wilmington in another year," notwithstanding the reopening of Elbert-Palmer, Riley said. He already is looking ahead to a referendum to build eight to 10 classrooms at both Charles R.

Drew Elementary on the East Side of Wilmington and Casimir Pulaski Elementary in Hedgeville. Under the 1978 desegregation older, all of Christina's students attend grades four through six in Wilmington schools. Riley figures that residents will be asked to approve a tax increase of 1 or 2 cents per $100 of assessed property value to pay for additions to Drew and Pulaski. Christina taxes went up 10 cents in July 1987, partly for Four Seasons and Elbert-Palmer but mostly for operating expenses. Christina officials are trying to figure out what they'll do next Christina Continued from 1 cause division there.

Christina officials already have begun getting calls from parents worried about which students will move. The plans assign students to two schools Christina will open next year: the new Henry M. Brader Elementary in Four Seasons south of Newark and Elbert-Palmer Elementary at Claymont and Lobdell streets in Wilmington. At the same time, Christina officials want to try to straighten out the assignments feeding into its three high schools Christiana, Glasgow and Newark. Currently, a group of children who attend grades one through three together may be split apart when they move to the schools that serve grades four through six.

Students who go to middle school together don't necessarily attend high school together. District officials want to change that so children go all through school together, if a plan can be found that would minimize disruption, Riley said.

Trostle said Monday that he was prepared to go ahead with the prosecution and had seven witnesses lined up. He said there was no evidence that Lubbers had been drinking on the night of the collision. Judge Bernard Balick ordered a presentence investigation for Lubbers.

Around the nation Yesterday's conditions and forecasts for today and tomorrow A 20-year-old Smyrna man set to stand trial in Superior Court on Monday for manslaughter in connection with a fatal automobile accident changed his mind at the last minute and entered a plea of nolo contendre to the charge. Dean E. Lubbers, of the 1800 block of Scott Lane in Smyrna, faces a possible maximum sentence of 30 years as a result of the plea. In a nolo contendre plea, a defendant agrees that the court can enter a judgment of guilt against him. Deputy Attorney General Keith Trostle said that Lubber was 19 on the night of March 8 when he drove from Interstate 95 onto westbound Delaware 273.

He passed through one traffic signal, arid was groping for a dropped cigarette lighter when he looked up and saw the red signal at the intersection of Delaware 273 and Brownleaf Road. State police determined that Lubber's car was going 81 mph when he began to brake and 68 mph when it slammed into the driver's side of a car driven by Paul K. Pennington. The speed limit on that stretch of Delaware 273 is 45 mph. Pennington, 19, of the 1100 block of Ralph Road, Fox Chase, was trapped in the wreckage of his car for about 45 minutes.

He died of his injuries about five hours later in Christiana Hospital.
