His children, 10 Cents Several Fights Break Our At 'Hangouts' By BRUCE DUDLEY Staff Writer Sixty persons were arrested Friday night as police made a series of drug raids in the Winter Park-Maitland area. The raids ended a three-month investigation by the Winter Park Police Department's vice squad with the assistance of the Maitland Police Department and Orange County Sheriff Department's investigation division. WINTER PARK Police Chief Ray Beary said 90 per cent of the warrants issued stemmed "from direct sales to Winter Park undercover agents." He said ten of the purchases were made from juveniles. During the drug traffic probe, Beary said undercover agents purchased heroin, LSD, marijuana, hashish, barbiturates and amphetamines.

Beary said his department's investigation centered on areas along Lee Road, Aloma Avenue and around the Winter Park Youth Center. THE POLICE chief said Maitland police and the Orange County Sheriff's Department were contacted when "it became apparent the investigation was going to spread out of the city." Several fights and chases occurred late Friday night and Saturday morning as officers from all three it departments swooped down on varJ-" ous "hangouts," but no one was seriously injured. All persons arrested were booked at Winter Park jail and then transferred to the Orange County jail on various charges. BY EARLY this morning, Beary, said 60 persons were arrested. Originally, 68 warrants were issued.

Police said arrests would continue for several days until all the persons named in the original warrants are located. Persons arrested and the charges filed against them included: Bob Rodrigues, 19, 5553 Barton Drive, Orlando, sale and possession of hallucinogenic drugs. MIKE DARBY, 21, 1326 Vantage Road, Winter Park, sale and possession of cannabis. Tuffey Gatton, 20, 529 Friar Road, Winter Park, sale and possession of marijuana. David Nixon, 22, Nob Hill apartments, sale possession of cannabis.

(J) PresN dent Nixon, in a crackdown on air piracy, has ordered the Federal Aviation Administration to Implement tougher antihijacking measures including passenger inspection when necessary on commuter airlines. John D. Ehrlichman, Nixon's assistant for domestic policy, announced at a news conference Friday in nearby Newport Beach that the President ordered FAA Administrator John Shaffer to assure 100 per cent inspection in some form for all commuter passengers.

Previous government regulations required a 10 per cent screening ratio, Ehrlichman said. NIXON ACTED after two Pacific Southwest Airlines planes, which carry air commuters in California, were hijacked in two days. "The President has followed news of the recent hijackings," and has been very concerned, particularly about commuter airlines," the aide said. "These include such airlines as Pacific Southwest Airlines of Cali-V fornia and the East Coast shuttle runs between Boston and New York. "No preventative measure is completely effective, but' the measures would make it clear that our preventive efforts are substantially enhanced." AN FAA spokesman in Washington said the new rules applying to at At 1f snuuie iugnis require inai an passengers must show two pieces of identification and that all carry-on luggage will be searched.

In addition, the spokesman added, body searches will be instituted when it appears warranted or jus tified. Sources indicated each piece of baggage or each purse might not be physically searched. But they said that the airline would continue to rely heavily on metal detection devices which, if they record a warning signal, could lead to searches. EHRLICHMAN ALSO said other measures were being considered specifically whether the death penalty can continue to be applied in hijacking cases. The U.S.

Supreme Court has ruled out death as the penalty for most if not all crimes. On Friday morning, Nixon held a lengthy review of the meat price situation at the Western White House here with Secretary of the Treasury George Shultz and other officials.

His political operatives, who spent much of the day planning for the floor fight expected Monday night on the California credentials case, said they expected to win by at least 50 votes in a showdown that could have i a decisive impact on the fight for the nomination itself "The nomination is Monday night.

If he loses, he would be more than 200 votes short. 1 The senator's strategists count on a ruling, which party officials have indicated is likely, permitting the 120 California McGovern delegates who aren't being challenged to vote on seating the rest of the delegation. The McGovern forces also hope for a second ruling that would require a majority of those delegates voting, rather than of the full convention, to decide the seating issue.
