PAGE 2 TUCSON A I CITIZEN SATURDAY, JANUARY 29, 1977 Prinze condition improves LOS ANGELES (AP) -Television comedy star Freddie Prinze's chances to the bullet he put through his head have improved, a friend says, but the entertainer was still near death. "When they brought him in this morning, they said the chances were one million to one," family friend Paul Wasserman said last night. they tell us it is one "hundred to one." Prinze, at the.peak of his as the star of the television hit "Chico 'jand the Man," reportedly despondent over marital a lawsuit and a -misdemeanor Charge for driving while under the influ- "ence of drugs. He shot' himself in the head pearly yesterday while his 'business manager was with him. The snooting ended of attempts by Prinze's psychiatrist and "others to help him relieve his despondency.

"Freddy was talking to his wife (on the telephone)," said Police Lt. Dan Cooke. "He hung up, reached down into the sofa, grabbed the gun and put it to his temple and fired." Hospital officials said a caliber bullet passed through Prinze's brain. He was taken to the UCLA Medical Center and listed in critical condition after undergoing surgery for two hours. Deputy assignments changed to bolster Pima coverage By DAVID DYKES CitteB Staff Writer.

Sheriff Richard Boykin has reassigned several deputies and officers from office jobs to field duty and added two new substations in order to bolster his department's coverage of the county. Boykin said he has created Tucson South and Tucson West substations, to be headquartered at the depart- main administration building, 1801 S. Mission Road. The two new substations brings the total to seven. The other five Marana, Green Valley, Ajo, Rincon (East Side) and Catalina (North Side) are located throughout the county.

The lieutenants supervising each station should come up with their own ideas for improving' law enforcement in their areas, Boykin said. He also reassigned several deputies and eight officers from office jobs, such as communication, to field duty. That will increase the number of deputies and supervisors on each patrol shift from about 15 to 25. He said he is considering hiring civilians to work in the department's records, personnel, budget and research divisions to free more commissioned officers for 'patrol duty. Among Boykin's latest Admitted heroin addict found guilty of murder A 25-year-old man who told Superior Court jurors he shot a neighbor to death for a few grams of heroin last Sept.

9 has been found guilty of first-degree murder. A four-man, eight-woman jury deliberated four hours yesterday before convicting Clayton William Doyle Jr. of the shooting death of 21-year-old Rodney D. Hickmott. In court testimony, Doyle admitted he shot Hickmott twice in the head as Hickmott, under the influence of heroin, dozed on a couch.

Doyle said Hickmott had refused to give him some of the drug that Doyle had helped him buy in Nogales, Mexico, earlier that day. Doyle, an admitted heroin addict, testified that he had been suffering from heroin withdrawal symptoms 'when he shot Hickmott. He said that the shooting, he took some of Hickmott's heroin and shot it into his own veins. He also said he took $5 or $6 from Hickmott's pocket. Doyle, who faces a possible death sentence, had been an electrician for Tucson Gas Electric Co.

until he was fired after he was arrested last year on suspicion of possession of heroin. He testified that he had planned to commit suicide after the shooting because the loss of his job and trouble with the police and his parents had left him no alternative. The jury also found Doyle guilty of one count of armed burglary. A hearing to determine Doyle's sentence is scheduled for Feb. 23 before Superior Court Judge Gilbert Veliz.

changes in staff assignments is the transfer of Capt. Robert Gibson from chief of the Criminal Investigation Division to commander of the Patrol Division. He was replaced by Capt. Larry W. Moore.

Boykin also confirmed yesterday that renewed allegations of criminal activity in the Pima County Jail recently prompted a third extensive investigation of jail operations, but that the investigation hasn't substantiated many of the allegations that prompted it. Those allegations included drug dealing within the jail, "slush" funds operated by detention officers, homosexual attacks on inmates and the theft of food and jail mattresses by detention officers, Boykin and Clarence W. Dupnik, chief sheriff deputy, said. Also, sources close to the investigation said sheriff's officials have been told that, in December, an electronic listening device, or "bug," was found in jail commander Lt. John Czech's office inside the jail.

Sources said the device most probably was put there by someone who worked at the jail and knew the inner workings of jail operations and Czech's job. Czech's life subsequently was threatened for undisclosed reasons by persons who knew a lot about his personal life, the sources said.

More autonomy sought Regulations irk Maranans Citizen Photo Concerned residents Citizen photo South Tucson residents yesterday told a meeting of the State Liquor Control Board that violent muggings and public drunk eness were common happenings in the small community. Residents told the board they felt the problems stemmed from a proliferation of bars and lead other people in the community to believe that all South Tucsonians do is get drunk. $075 PRIZE S. Tucson residents ask safeguards for children EXPLANATIONS OF MORE DIFFICULT CLU 1160-R ICLUES ACROSS: ft! 1. SPRINGING not SPRINTING In "SPRINGING from a bush," Hie action would be upwards, in which case "playful boy ii likely to" come inlo contact with ''on overhanging branch." "sprints from a bush," it's rather a 'branch" in front of him thol ha would hit.

7. NAMED not NAKED. "Shocked to seo" him NAMED mokes a clear- cut statement of the clue. If he is "a streaker," he is NAKED, making the (otter redundant as an answer. 8.

THERE not THESE. As guide" he would readily know as an "historical" fact that "many soldiers" hod fallen (i.e. been killed) in a battle at Hie point indicated from the "castle" "over But it would be highly unusual to know that "many soldiers" had octuoly fallen "over" a particular section of THESE "battlements." Furthermore, they would not be likely, when taking cover behind them, to fall outwards, if wounded or billed. 13. DARE not CARE.

If "they" voluntarily "imagine themselves doing' these "things, they" must basically have a desire to do them, showing that "they would CARE to," though "they would not" necessarily "DARE to." CLUES DOWN: 1. SEATING not SKATING. Poor "SEATING would probably put off many patrons," es since ft will be me same next time. But fA Hie SKATING "on opening night" need not be a foretaste at all of -X future occasions. 2.

ROMEO not ROOEO. A story covering the "events'- in the life of "a small-town ROMEO" can be amplified with the situations remaining amusing, making it a suitable baiii for "a successful'X movie." "A small-town RODEO," K' with its second-rate "events," 'X would become boring if allowed to drag on for a full-length "mov- ie." Furthermore H's not the -X "events," themselves, that would make "a successful movie," but rather Hie personalities involved. 3. NONE not NINE. If the is "brief" and the "convoy" is''X "escorted," the inference is that Hie attackers ore quickly driven off, making NONE far more likely ft 5.

SLACKEST not BLACKEST. BUCK- EST rather implies the "year" 'X was poor and that mere were months of losses. The SLACKEST, links-up better with -X the clue having had a very good yeor." 9. CAUSE not PAUSE, "without x' CAUSE, mokes a comprehensive answer (i.e. a noise that he can't account for).

Whether Hie "sing- ing noise in his head" is intermit- tent, or "without PAUSE" actually beside the point. "Something has to be done to stop the kids from stumbling over the winos on their way to school." That's the kind of comment most South Tucson residents had for the State Liquor Control Board at a special meeting called by city officials to pressure bar owners there into curbing drunkenness and violence in the one-square mile community. In his opening remarks, South Tucson Public Safety Director Richard Serrano said hie figures show that many of the city's muggings, assaults and robberies occur in or near four bars: Spanish Well Tavern, 2244 S. 6th Shamrock Bar, 1539 S. 6th Danny's Hideaway, 1532 S.

6th and the Lucky Dollar Tavern, 1555 S. 10th Ave. About 25 of the 125 persons who attended the two and a half hour session at the South Tucson Civic Center addressed the group. Some bar owners said they could not be blamed for the problems, while others expressed a willingness to cooperate with the city. Several residents complained that the focus on the bar situation is creaing an image in the community that the only thing South Tucsonians do is get drunk.

Officials of the Social Security office at 50 W. 33rd St. said they are considering moving because of nearby bar activity. Jesus Rico, the office's field representative, said the office serves many elderly persons who must be protected. He said the branch office is the first in Arizona to require a full-time armed guard.

Many of the employes want to transfer be-, cause of nearby knife fights and drunks urinating on the office window. South Tucson police began their crackdown in the area about eight months years of ignoring all but the most serious incidents. Their action was prompted by "hundreds" of complaints from residents, according to Mayor Dan Eckstrom. At the end of the hearing, liquor license and control chairman Stan Shanler said the board will meet with the police, city council and the public to try to ease the problem. Times for those meetings were not set.

By THOMAS P. LEE Citizen Staff Writer MARANA Hoping to escape from increased governmental regulations, residents of this community of 1,600 have filed petitions to altow Marana to becone a town. The move, they hope, will free them from such restrictions as county building codes, floodplain construction laws and planning and zoning rules. "We're a rural community, not an urban one like Tucson," says W.H. "Pat" Garrett, one of the leaders of the incorporation drive "so we should have our own laws which wll allow us to control our own destiny." Water, the thorn in Tucson's side, also is an issue in the Marana incorporation drive.

Residents here believe (hey can block Tucson's efforts to purchase water rights in Marana. "It's been proven in the courts that one city cannot condemn another city to get its water rights," said Charles B. DeSpain, project manager for the community's Csrtaro Water Users' Association and the Cortaro-Marana Irrigation District. The City of Tucson has been purchasing land in the Avra Valley south of Marana to expand its metropolitan water supply. City officials have complained that Marana-area farmers are using groundwater that otherwise could supply Tucson residents.

Tn fact, DeSpain's organization, which has 49 wells that pump about 35,000 acre-feet of water a year, is trying to talk the county into allowing it to trade some of its fresh groundwater for sewage effluent. DeSpain says sewage effluent from a massive county treatment plant at 1-10 and Ina Road could be channeled via gravity into the Marana-area cotton fields rather than into the Santa Cruz riverbed. Marana, in turn, would allow the Tucson area to have some of its fresh groundwater. Some members of the Board of Supervisors say they are considering the idea, but have put off a decision because the mines south of Tucson also want to have the effluent oioed to them. While preparing for these negotiations, Marana towns- Murder suspect is committed people also are working on another of the big-city headaches that they say they want to avoid a budget Marana economist George Learning has drawn up a balanced $105,000 budget that shows all revenues coming from state and federal revenue sharing funds with the largest expenditure $66,400 paying for three police officers and.a police chief.

Learning concedes that Marana residents probably would continue to pay the same amount of taxes as they do now. But incorporation, Learning says, would allow residents of Marana "to free themselves from domination by the City of Tucson." Warning asked for bubble bath Murder suspect Frank LoCascio has been committed to the Arizona State Hospital, two and a half weeks after he was ruled mentally incompetent to stand trial. Superior Court Judge Harry Gin signed the order committing LoCascio, 73, to the hospital in Phoenix for six months. Three psychiatrists had testified that he was suffering from possibly incurable paranoia. LoCascio had been charged in the Nov.

8 shooting deaths of psteopathic surgeon Mark K. Taiz, 35, and garage mechanic Jonathan Horton, 30. WASHINGTON (UPI) -The government has proposed warning labels for bubble bath. preparations, saying they cause skin and urinary tract irritation -particularly among children. The warning was proposed by the Food and Drag Administration, which also said the powder-type bubble bath can cause "respiratory discomfort" if inhaled as it is dumped into the water.

"Prolonged or excessive use of bubble bath products contributes significantly to the high incidence of adverse reactions in users, particularly children," the FDA said ina statement. The proposal was published in today's federal register, inviting comment from interested parties over the next 60 days, and would go into effect six months after publication in final form. As initially proposed, the warning label would say: "Caution use only as directed. Excessive use or prolonged exposure may cause irritation to skin and urinary tract. Discontinue use if rash, redness or itching occur.

Consult yor physician if irritation persists. Keep out of reach of children." "The tabulations and analyses of the reports of consumer injury received by the FDA show that many commercial bubble bath products have caused adverse reactions," thejFDA said. "The majority of injuries- and the most severe injuries, i.e., genitourinary tract disorders, were reported in children, particularly female children." The FDA said producers agreed in 1971 to reduce amounts of at least one suspected irritant in bubble bath preparations, but that consumer complaints continue virtually unabated. i University gets Abzug documents NEW (AP) -Former Rep.
