Brotlier-In-Law Pulls Off Tast One' On Onassis ATHENS (UPI) Over the years, shipping magnate Aristotle Onassis has chalked up Lena Drops Request For Prison Probe PHOENIX (UPI) Rep. Sam Lena (D, Pima) has withdrawn his request for an investigation into alleged homosexual practices at the state prison. Lena said he was satisfied there was no need for an investigation at this time. He said he changed his mind after meeting yesterday with Allen Cook, director of the state corrections department.

Lena said Cook assured him there have been no homosexual gangs at the prison since an investigation into the matter some time ago. Earlier, Lena demanded an investigation in a letter to Cook. "I should like to see a thorough investigation from your office of the policy at our state prison regarding homosexuality, which.seems to be in order at this time," Lena said in the letter. The Tucson Democrat noted that Joseph Allen Reynolds, whose original complaint was among factors triggering the earlier probe, had been returned to the prison. Later Lena said he was satisfied that appropriate safety precautions were being taken for Reynolds.

iome notable financial and social victories over his archrival and former brother-in-law, Stavros Niarchos. Niarchos turned the tables yesterday. Unless Onassis comes up with a surprise, it looks like Niarchos will score the biggest bictory of his life over the man they call the Golden Greek. The prize is worth $500 million and consists of an oil refinery, aluminum complex and other industrial and tourist facilities. It seemed six months ago nothing could prevent Onassis from winning the approval of the military regime to build and operate the scheme, described as the largest in Greek history.

The 62-year-old ship owner had just reaped worldwide publicity and the good will of the Greek regime by marrying the former Mrs. John F. Kennedy on Ms private island of Skorpios. His bid of $400 million was accepted by the government, which pronounced the bidding closed. A tentative contract was signed in Athens in March.

Onassis played host at a news conference punctuated by the sound of popping champagne corks. Then Niarchos broke his months of silence with a bid topping Onassis' by $100 million. government refused'to reconsider. Niarchos had a couple of ace; up his sleeve. He said he would give the dollars-hungry regime a low-interest, long-term $151 million loan.
