Thursday, November 29, 1979 Added security for Kennedy in Iowa Videotapes reach beyond grave tures to attend two small meetings and shake nearly every hand available. "We'll be taking our message to every community in every home in the state," Kennedy told supporters. It was his second trip to Iowa this month and he probably will return next week. The yankee senator who specializes in national health Insurance, energy and foreign policy in the Senate, wanted to make it clear to the Iowa farmers he speaks their language too. In remarks prepared for delivery, Kennedy blamed the administration for the dramatic decrease in family farms.

George said, "One couple specified that all their property was to go to their two teen-age sons, and they left a tape imparting their philosophy of life to guide the boys. It was sort of like Murphy's law 'everything that can go wrong probably will, but that's okay, it makes life more The true utility of the videotape is that it provides a record for people who are afraid their wills will be contested, particularly in the case of anyone cutting off a prospective heir, such as a parent cutting off a chird. There is a provision in the California probate code that makes an exception to the hearsay rule to admit "evidence of a statement by the declarant." But some attorneys warn of problems with videotaped wills. "There's nothing unethical about it, but it opens the door to some other problems, such as a contradiction between the videotape and the written will," said George Stephens, chairman of the County Bar Association's probate committee. "Videotapes are excellent in Disturbed woman's story BOSTON (UPI) Suzanne Osgood, who barged into Sen.

Edward M. Kennedy's office Wednesday wielding a hunting knife, was by many accounts a "very disturbed woman" with a long history of mental problems but no tendency toward violence. Hours after the screaming woman briefly threw Kennedy's Washington office into confusion, her family issued a statement from their New Hampshire home apolig-izing for the attack and detailing her psychological history.

Hope-filled survivors attending a reading of the will may be greeted by a videotape of Uncle Moneybuck-ets explaining just why they get only his butterfly collection and the trust fund goes to keep Shep and Spot in sirloin for life. Some law firms are offering clients the chance to make a videotape of their will-signing, and they can include personal comments. One woman left a verse warning her husband not to squander the money on sports cars, gambling and young cuties. The firm of George Dapeer advertises their service in magazines as "A touch of Immortality." "Record a fond goodbye or level some parting shots," the ad advises. "No, the report that one of our clients wants to come tap-dancing on screen is not true at all," said partner Richard A.

Tucker of Santa Ana, a specialist in contested wills. The practice is currently unusual, but is spreading slowly, he said. "But I wouldn't make one without a good reason, and I would be careful," Tucker said.

"Your client better look healthy and come on like gangbusters. A tape showing a person badly ill, or in a hospital bed, could well convince a jury the person was incompetent." A videotape adds about $150 to the fee at George Dapeer, George said. A woman in her 40s taped a poem to be played for her husband if she dies before him. After leaving him her entire estate, she adds: "Don't go to Vegas, or play with stock "Or drink much after six o'clock.

AND SOUND month, day, year, 34.99 DEC. 24. MASON CITY, Iowa (UPI) Despite an increased Secret Service detail, Sen. Edward Kennedy, tumping with daughter Kara and sister Pat at his side, has learned that the way to win In Iowa is to campaign one-on-one. Additional Secret Service agents were added to Kennedy's protective detail Wednesday after a knife-wielding woman was arrested in the reception room of his Senate office in Washington.

Their presence was evident later in the day when he hit the campaign trail in the state that begins the nation's delegate selection process Jan. 21 just seven weeks away. Kennedy came to Iowa on the first stop of a coast-to-coast campaign swing. He goes to Phoenix later today and on to California, Nevada and North Dakota before returning to Washington Monday. Jimmy Carter wrote the textbook on campaigning in the Iowa caucuses.

The then-unknown former Georgia governor came to the state in 1975, met with small groups of people and got them to go to the school houses, fire stations and town halls and vote for him in the caucuses. Tbe style that won Carter first place four years ago does not come not natural to Kennedy, but he is learning. Arriving in Mason City late in the day, Kennedy tromped through the snow and sub-freezing tempera- Discharges to be cleared WASHINGTON (UPI) Some 10,000 Vietnam veterans who were given less than honorable discharges because of alleged drug abuse must now be given honorable discharges, a federal judge has ruled. U.S. District Judge Barrington Parker said veterans who failed to pass urinalysis tests to detect drug use were discharged in violation of military law.

"The testing procedures were illegal because they did not include a warning to the soldiers that they did not have to participate," said Bart Stichman, of the National Military Discharge Review Project of the American Civil Liberties Union and a co-counsel in the suit. In the order issued Wednesday, Parker told the Army to compile a list "of all those former Army service members who were separated with a less than honorable discharge by reason of drug abuse." He estimated such a list might contain 10,000 names. Parker said the Army must "recharacterize to honorable the discharge of each of the individuals" and send honorable discharge certificates to them by mail. Furnace cuts fuel needs BOSTON (UPI) The Environmental Protection Agency announced today it has developed an oil-fired furnace that can cut fuel needs by more than 15 percent while significantly reducing air pollution. The EPA integrated furnace was developed by Rockwell International of California and tested during a two-year period in six houses in Boston and Albany, N.Y., spokesman Paul G.

Keough said. "The new EPA furnace can cut fuel needs by an average of 120 gallons" from the 800 gallons needed per house each winter, Keogh said. The furnace cuts emissions of nitrogen oxide, carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and smoke. The burner is operated with a small amount of air which, with an efficient heat exchanger, minimizes energy losses. If you RECORDS 1 VOU NEW AND UStU A.
