Hudnut's Son Might Face More Charges NOBLESVILLE, Ind. (AP) Hamilton County authorities are investigating whether additional charges should brought against Timothy N. Hudnut, a son of Indianapolis Mayor William Hudnut. Timothy N. Hudnut, 33, was being held without bond in the Hamilton County Jail on charges of battery and violation of a court order.

Deputy Prosecutor Jim Rosenberry, who is handling the case, was in court Friday and not available for comment. The charges stem from an incident April 26 in which Hudnut is accused of battery in an attack on a former girlfriend who had I a court order to keep him away, according to Hamilton County Prosecutor Steven R. Nation. Hudnut received the court order at a March sentencing in Hamilton County Court following a June 1990 incident in which he broke a window at the home of Michelle Winters near Carmel, according to court records. In August, Winters urged the prosecutor's office to pursue charges against Hudnut.

Hudnut pleaded guilty to criminal mischief on March 26. He received a $100 fine, a 90-day suspended jail sentence, was ordered to pay $172 in restitution and was placed on probation for a year. Hudnut also was ordered to stay away from Winters. On April 26, Hudnut reportedly returned to Winters's home southwest of Carmel where they argued, Nation said. Hudnut allegedly pushed and kicked the woman.

He was arrested on a misdemeanor count of battery but was released from the jail after posting bond. "It was a fluke where the Sheriff's Department didn't realize this was the same guy who was on probation," Nation said Thursday. Hudnut went to the probation office Tuesday morning to discuss his criminal mischief conviction. He then was charged with battery and violation of probation and was taken to jail." Nation said, "We're trying to get ahold of the victim to see if any other things happened to see if any additional charges need to be filed." On Wednesday, Mayor Hudnut released a statement through his aide, Dave Arland. Hudnut said of his son, "He's leading his own life and I don't know the particulars of what happened." Amtrak Ends VALPARAISO, Ind.

(AP) Amtrak's Calumet train passed through northwest Indiana for the last time Friday night after 81 years of service. Operations on the Calumet line, which runs from Valparaiso to Chicago, stopped at about 6:30 p.m. when the train pulled into the Valparaiso station. The commuter rail service has been plagued by operating losses and drops in ridership for more than a decade. The line, in service since 1910, has seen its daily passenger loads drop to just 168 riders last year.

The Calumet line is one of the last commuter routes operated by the railroad, which took over the route from the Penn Central Railroad on Oct. 1, 1979. Amtrak officials, citing major financial deficits, The State FROM WIRE SERVICE REPORTS Injured Students File Lawsuit for Records EVANSVILLE, Ind. Two of the seven Harrison High School students injured in an accident near the school last month are accusing the city and the police department of withholding information. Lance Elliott, through his mother, Rhonda Berliner, and Anthony Hite, through his parents, Anthony D.

and Mary E. Hite, filed suit Thursday in Vanderburgh Superior Court. Elliott, Hite and five other students were congregating at a bench in front of the school when a vehicle driven by fellow student Jeffrey Graman ran into them. Elliott remained in serious condition at St. Mary's Medical Center in Evansville.

Hite was released from Welborn Baptist Hospital on April 16. The youths' families have notified the Evansville-Vanderburgh School Corp. that they will seek compensation for medical bills and other damages suffered by their children. Their attorney, Robert L. Simpkins, said in the lawsuit that he bas made oral and written requests for copies of police accident reports, witness statements and photographs of the accident.

Simpkins claimed that the items are public records according to Indiana statute, yet the defendants refuse to release the documents on the grounds that charges might be filed against Graman. Deputy Vanderburgh Prosecutor Ron Bell said Friday that the case still is under review by juvenile authorities to determine if charges will be sought. Bell said juvenile investigators have yet to interview the Graman family and that it could be "another week or two" before the review is completed. A hearing on the suit has been set for next Thursday before Superior Court Judge Maurice O'Connor. Officers Get On-the-Job CPR Experience SELLERSBURG, Ind.

Andry is scheduled to give an "Mary Spears" Vote For Stephen Ballman Democrat City Council District I No More Taxes (A Man Who Will Listen!) Love, Mom Dad Watchers- Barton said. "Rip Nelson always appointed poll watchers, but I knew this chairman would not." Barton filed the petition with Donati on Friday, saying a list of watchers would be provided to the county clerk before Tuesday's election. She provided a list of all 55 precincts for the clerk to certify watchers. According to state law, watchers can inspect work done by the precinct board and check totals from voting machines. They also can accompany election inspectors when they deliver election returns to the tabulation center.

Nichols said Johnson and the other candidates were making a "media play" before Tuesday's election. Nichols also is supporting Landers's campaign. "I think it is ridiculous," he said. "I don't think they have any sincere desire or intention to have watchers at the polls." As chairman, Nichols appoints precinct election boards, but he said the appointments were based on the recommendations of precinct committeemen. State law prohibits relatives of candidates from serving on an absentee voter board or precinct election board.

Donati said there was no conflict between being election-board secretary and working on a candidate's campaign. "The clerk has nothing to do with appointing the precinct election board," Donati said. "It's the county chairman who does that." Donati said he did oversee vote tabulations, but the counting is handled by a computer representative.

However, legislation pushed through Congress by Rep. Peter J. Visclosky, D-Merrillville, has kept the train running until today. Deborah Hare, Amtrak's central region public affairs manager, said the railroad decided to abandon the line because it could not justify the costs associated with it. "There's only a small group of people who still ride the train," said Hare, pointing out the line, without aid from the federal government, would have faced a $1.1 million deficit in September, the end of the railroad's fiscal year.

Commuter train trips peaked at 251,277 in 1982. Officers Mike Stricker and Jeff Zahnd were the first to arrive at the scene. They found Lowery in his bed, not breathing, and immediately began two-man CPR while paramedics were called. Lowery was taken to Clark Memorial Hospital, where he remained in critical condition, said Sellersburg Police Chief David Kinder. Because police are so often the first on the scene after a medical emergency, one of the first things Kinder did after assuming his position in January was mandate CPR training for his officers.

"I'm very proud of these guys," Kinder said. "There's just not enough to say about, them. It's things like this that make people appreciate their local police." Representative Seeks Dunes Funds WASHINGTON Rep. Peter J. Visclosky, D- has urged a House subcommittee to appropriate $5 million for land acquisition at the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore.

In an appearance Thursday before the House Appropriations subcommittee on the interior, Visclosky also asked the subcommittee to earmark $2 million for improvements to park trails, campgrounds and access roads. Visclosky's northwest Indiana congressional district includes the park. The House subcommittee on national parks and public lands scheduled a May 28 hearing on a bill authored by Visclosky that would expand the park by nearly 1,100 acres. Phone Taps Uncover Betting Evidence HAMMOND, Ind. Telephone taps have uncovered evidence that four members of the Nuzzo family of Merrillville have continued to operate a lucrative sports-betting operation since being indicted on gambling charges in December, officials said.

A federal judge revoked the bond of the four after hearing the evidence Thursday. U.S. Magistrate Andrew P. Rodovich jailed Sam Nuzzo 45; Arthur Nuzzo, 33; Jennifer Kaufman, 37, and Sandra T. Mynes, 43.

The surveillance is expected to lead to additional charges against the Nuzzos. Beachlert 16-Hr. Sale FRIDAY, 10 A.M.-6 P.M. SATURDAY, 9 A.M.-5 P.M. SHORT HOURS.
