Asked if his age is a handicap, Jeff replied, "On the contrary, I think my age is a benefit. I'm closer to the problems of education today." Jeff attends Florida Atlantic University, Boca Raton, where he has only two more years to go to receive a bachelor's degree.

He earned advanced placement at the university by scoring high in the Florida 12th grade placement test and scoring above SO per cent of college sophomores on another test.

The Miami man, Arthur Cheatham, 27, was arrested and fined in Deerfield Beach on charges of having no license, speeding and an improper start. When he called his brother, Miami Patrolman Bobby Cheatham, after his arrest early yesterday morning, his brother asked to speak to the officer in charge. Patrolman Cheatham was working on a robbery case in which a man offered to drive Frank Barkalow, 64, home from a bar. Barkalow was instead taken to an apartment where he was beaten, robbed and his car stolen.

After Patrolman Cheatham examined the apartment, he wrote in his report book: "The occupant of this apartment is Arthur Cheatham" the police officer's older brother. NOTICE GIVEN He notified Miami Police Sgt. Robert Love and added his brother answered the de- scription given by Barkalow. He said his brother probably would head for Georgia where the family has relatives. Six hours later, after he had gone off.

Office Cheatham assured him Barkalow had survived and then asked to speak to a police officer at the Deerfield Beach station. He told Lt. Lee Magnuson his brother was wanted on a robbery charge and Arthur was jailed.

Most Officials Doubt Legality By NICK PINTOZZI Staff Writer Broward Countians concerned about drug abuse in public schools today rejected a federal official's suggestion urinalyses tests be given all junior high students on a random basis to detect drug abuse in early stages. The suggestion is unacceptable because it would appear to be a violation of the students' right of privacy and such a test would frighten youths and disrupt classes, according to law enforcement, medical and school officials. The suggestion was made by Dr. Richard Wilbur, assistant secretary of defense for health and environment.

No vice president exerts the political strength than does a chairman of the House Wavs and Means Committee. Oddly enough, as political scientist Robert A. Listen notes: "The people of the two largest states, New York and California, have not an iota of say about electing him. He comes Kensett, a hamlet in Arkansas, and represents the smallest congressional, election district in the nation. Representative Mills is known to be a thoughtful and statesmanlike man, greatlv concerned about the welfare of the nation, but legally he is responsible to a rural area in Arkansas." End of today's history, CITE PRECEDENT In an article in the current edition of a health magazine, Wilbur said there 'was ade-quate precedent for such tests.

He said the army conducted such tests as part of its pro-g a of controlling drug abuse in Vietnam. The key to drug abuse control is early detection, beginning in junior high school, where the problem can be identified and treated before addiction sets in, Wilbur said. MAY SAVE LIVES "Although the cost of the program will necesarily be high, it will still be a bargain in terms of young lives saved," he said, noting persons in the early stages of drug abuse respond well to rehabilitative treatment. Broward County Sheriff Edward J. Stack had a different opinion, however.

"I would seriously doubt such urinalyses tests would be constitutional." said Stack, president of the Broward County Narcotics Guidance Council. "I doubt anyone could force any segment of the population to submit to physical examinations of this type. Juveniles have the same' rights as adults in this instance. NOT PRACTICAL' "I don't think this suggestion is practical. It might be if it were done on a volunary basis, but there is certainly a between the army and the schools as far as what ri can and done," Stacjc said.

1 When Dr. Kenneth Kiester, a psychiatrist, his wife Frances, and their two sons, Dwight, 7 and Kirk 6, decided to buy property in "the country" five years ago, they found a large white Georgia Pine frame house on an acre and a third of grass and trees, ringed by a wood rail fence. It was a place where they could keep live stock and filled Dr. Klester's prescription of "a place where I can have some privacy I like being able to feed the chickens in my underwear." But that was before Tamarac happened, The developer-city has grown up around the Kiesters' retreat Now, the acre and a third is an island, not part of Tamarac but surrounded by its condominiums, golf course, and a highway lined with shopping centers and flashing signs. 'A POLLUTION' The visual pollution is awful, the doctor says.

The Kiesters property is not part of Tamarac. They pay no taxes to the city and can not ask police or fire services from Tamarac. The Kiesters last year decided to move there permanently, although they still own a "city" house in Fort Lauderdale. Meanwhile, Kenneth Behring had bought up surrounding parcels and developed a community of retired people. Dr.

Kiester views the development with alarm. "When I bought this pie'ee of land," he said, "this was country, the city has grown up around me. It is really frightening."

'STATEMENT FALSE' Deckinger said a statement Friday by Mrs. Betty Wistedt, an opponent of the expansion, that Farber may have reconsidered his proposal to expand the shopping center is "completely false." Mrs. Wistedt based her statement on a city charter stipulation that allows the city to grant a 10-year lease with a 10-year option for a total of 20 PEMBROKE PINES -The mysterious Fred Sams, an undercover narcotics agent for the Pembroke Pines police, was fired yesterday by City Manager Charles McNally.

Sams, object of an intensive week-long manhunt after he disappeared July 7, phoned the police department last Friday from South Carolina. Relatives there reported he told them he had been abducted and had escaped. By STUART ZIPPER Staff Writer An indictment for conspiring to disrupt the Republican National convention may have ruined the lives of both Donald Perdue and his mother, an American Legion employe, Mrs. Daisy Perdue said today. Charging the indictments may have been a political ma- neuver, the mother of the Vietnam Veterans Against the War (WAW), activist said she had not heard from her son since shortly after he testified before the grand jury in Tallahassee Tuesday.

He was indicted Friday, but an FBI search has failed to find him. Perdue, 23, of 4560 SW 32nd southwest of Hollywood, a Marine Corps veteran wounded during a night patrol, is the oldest of five children. His brother Richard, 34, served with the 82nd Airborne at the tail end of the Korean War. A twin brother Ronald was in the Navy, but never saw combat. Neither have been linked to anti-war activi- ties, their mother said.

Farber's proposal, however, involves a 99-year lease from the city for the municipally-owned Air Park property.

Mrs. Wistedt said Farber told her his proposal to the City Commission had been an "investigative thing to find out if it would be feasible for him to carry on further negotiations with the businesses he planned to incorporate within the expansion." Vice Mayor Herbert Bard said that although the city charter does provide for only 2 0 a lease agreements, "this can be circumvented throug options."
