Woman May Name Son as Defendant in Suit By MIKE DONOGHUE Free Press Staff Writer Diane King, 35, of Essex may have to name her 14-year-old son as a defendant in a court proceeding if she hopes to get custody of property awarded temporarily to her husband, who is missing, and the son under a divorce order, Judge Ernest W. Gibson III said Monday. Mrs. King: filed suit in Chittenden County Superior Court against Wilfred King her father-in-law, because the property in question is at his home. Evidence during a hearing Monday indicated that her son, Joey, had moved the items to his grandfather's house for safekeeping.

Gibson said he was inclined to dismiss the complaint against Wilfred King but gave Mrs. King's attorney, Thomas J. Donovan, five days to consider whether he wanted to add the teen-ager as a defendant. Donovan said Monday night he expects to refile the case with both the teen-ager and his grandfather named as defendants. Wilfred F.

King III mysteriously disappeared in October 1980, a few months after he filed for divorce. King and his son were allowed in September 1980 to live at the family's home on Jericho Road and keep much of the erty pending the outcome of the divorce proceeding. Mrs. King was granted custody of the couple's other two children. Joey King moved next door to his grandparents after his father disappeared and his mother moved back into her former home.

The teen-ager testified Monday he decided to bring some of the property to his grandfather's house because some of his mother's boyfriends had damaged the property. Both Mrs. King and her son testified that motorcycles and a freezer were smashed, equipment from King's paving company damaged and a rubber boat slashed. The teen-ager said his mother asked him once not to call police about her friends. Mrs.

King said Arnold Parent, who lived with her and John Pump Maker Welcomes Investigation by NRC Markey's possession and date, no allegations have as yet been made directly to the management of Hayward Clark said one of the affidavits is being kept confidential and the company has not had the chance to review the contents fully. The company said it believes "We do, in fact, produce nuclear pumps of the highest quality in full compliance with all laws and regulation." Charges by the former employees are "completely without merit," Lyons said. Clark said because the company has not had enough time to study the allegations and in the light of having requested an NRC investigation, the company is "not going to make a public point-bypoint refutation" of the allegations. The company denied manufacturing pumps that play a major role in emergency core cooling systems. Such pumps immediately flood the reactor core with water in the event of a malfunction in the normal cooling system.

Clark, who admitted being unfamiliar with details of reactor design, said company engineers From Page 18 say Hayward Tyler pumps "are not considered to be associated with the primary nuclear core cooling system." He said the firm has manufactured four pumps of that variety. Two are stored at the plant and two have been shipped to a reactor slated for completion in 1988. Lyons said the company's pumps operate on a daily basis in reactors, rather than lying idle for use only in emergencies. Warshow said the company was "very unresponsive" about the type of pumps made and where they were shipped. He said, however, product lines and their customers listed in a brochure were identified as emergency core cooling equipment by Robert Pollard, of the Union of Concerned Scientists.

Karl Abraham, affairs officer for the Northeast region served by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, could not say whether Hayward Tyler made the crucial pumps, when reached at home. Most equipment in nuclear reactors has some association with pumping water, he said. Stephen F. Stoll, information officer for Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Corp. in Vernon, said he did not know if Hayward Tyler pumps were used in construction of the reactor.

Bill Defends 'Deadly Force' clearly threatened," Easton said. "The authorities looked at all the facts and no charges were brought. The law worked fine." He acknowledged there have been cases in other states in which criminal charges were brought against people who killed others while defending their property. He said such cases in other states do not mean Vermont needs a new law. "It seems to me that until we can show instances where a homeowner has been charged with using excessive force, or sued by someone, or there is some abuse of the current law, there's no need for change," he said.

The attorney general also said he was afraid the measure would From Page 18 Former Airport Manager From Page 18 ness that employs about 20 people. Corey also spoke briefly, saying he regretted the suffering and embarrassment he has caused his family and employees. "I would only ask for the mercy of the court," he said. Corey's shoulders sagged slightly with relief when Coffrin said he would not impose a prison Kinsey Says He'll Toe From Page 18 Kinsey cautioned, however, are some lines I won't cross." "I'm not capitulating to the governor's wishes," he said in an interview. "I'm hoping for a team approach." The letter, which was signed by Assistant Republican Leader Susan Auld, R-Middlesex, said upcoming elections make it essential that Republicans unite.

"For us to go in one direction continually squabbling with our administration going in another direction is the best election fodVermont Lottery The number 010 was drawn Monday in the daily lottery. Lockwood, a friend, were responsible for the damaged property. She said Calvin "Mickey" Clark, who now lives with her, has not damaged any items, when questioned by Alan Bruce, attorney for Wilfred King Jr. She said Parent was convicted in one case when he smashed her car windows at the Sheraton Inn in South Burlington, where she works, and was jailed for seven months. Mrs.

King said Lockwood admitted stealing a fish finder and a tackle box, but was never prosecuted. Donovan introduced as evidence state registrations of some of the vehicles to show ownership, but Mrs. King was unable to produce receipts for some of the items, including rifles, handguns, bow and arrows, a lawn mower and a cabinet. Joey King said he was afraid some of the items might be sold by his mother and so he and a friend removed them. He said his gradfather was not involved in the Death removal.

Mrs. King admitted she sold the paving business equipment for $11,000 and said the money was turned over to her attorney. Mrs. King denied she planned to sell any of the items if they were returned or that they were for the use of her male friends. She admitted one of her friends recently used her husband's snowmobile and snowmobile outfit.

Mrs. King said Parent slept with a gun under his mattress when he stayed at the house and Lockwood often carried a gun in a shoulder holster. During one point in his testimony the teen-ager's voice began to crack. He said the items would go back to his father if he was found and said the removal was not intended to deprive his brother and sister of use of the items. As young King broke down, his mother looked at Donovan beside her at the table and muttered, "sick." Earlier when Bruce asked why her son did not want to live with her, Mrs.

King said that could be better answered by him. Wilfred F. King III disappeared Oct. 24, 1980, and his bloodstained crutches were found a few days later off Middle Road in Colchester by two hunters. King had to use crutches after being struck by a car in front of home April 18, 1978.

King's fourwheel-drive vehicle was found in Williston about three weeks after he disappeared. His parents recently offered a reward in an effort to get more information. Some new information has been reported, but Essex police have said the probe was slowed by the lack of cooperation from Mrs. King. Her two other children have refused to talk to police on her advice and she refused to take a lie detector test at the time her husband disappeared, Lt.

Robert G. Yandow said. Death Notices and Funerals Held Set MRS. MARTHA 'PAT' MORRIE COLCHESTER Mrs. Martha "Pat" Morrie, 54, of 1 Wintergreen Drive died unexpectedly Monday morning at the Fanny Allen Hospital.

"There's always a danger there." Clifford disagreed. "There are people who already have weapons to protect themselves, and I have a gut feeling that we need this bill." He said the measure was spurred by his feeling that "criminals are given the consideration, not the victim." A similar measure, introduced last year in the Senate, never made it out of committee. Clifford admitted he considers the bill's chance for passage "practically zero." "But I feel strongly about it," he said.
