James Schneider, who also gave $1,000 and heads gambling operations at SL Peter Claver Center. Cottey claims he was unaware that the gamblers had made contributions to his committee until it was reported by The News earlier this month. The former deputy police chief has the option of returning those contributions, but no decision has been made on whether to return the money.

Hodges was convicted in 1979 of unlawful gambling and in March of this year his place of business, Ail-American Cars, 3103 Lafayette Road, was raided by the vice squad where miscellaneous gambling records were seized with a search warrant. Stephanoff was convicted of gambling Dec. 10, 1981, in Municipal Court. He was fined $141 and given a suspended sentence following an arrest Jan. 24, 1981, at Eagledale Athletic Club, 3048 Lafayette Road.

Schneider, who is Cottey's part-time boss at a Southside produce firm, is vice president of the private fraternal organization, which is under investigation by Federal and state agencies. Indiana campaign laws require anyone contributing $100 more in a year to be listed in quarterly income and expense statements. But all contributions must be recorded and retained by the committee for possible auditing. "This committee has fully complied with and will continue to fully comply with the Indiana Campaign Finance Act," Ayres said. "As you know, once a contributor's aggregate contribution to a committee during a calendar year exceeds $100, the contributor's name and address must be listed on Schedule A.

The reports filed by this committee to date have met this requirement," he said. The last campaign report filed with the Marion County Election Board was for Jan. 1 through April 9, 1982. "As there now seems to be an interest in contributions below the normal reporting level, the next report will include information on contribu By SKIP HESS and ART HARRIS Convicted gamblers and numbers operators paid $25 each to attend a fund raising event last month for Republican candidate for sheriff Jack Cottey but his campaign chairman has refused to disclose their names. William Ayres, Cottey for Sheriff Committee chairman, declined to reveal the names of contributors present at the Knights of Columbus, 1305 N.

Delaware, April 27 from 5 to 7 p.m. The Indiana Campaign Finance Act requires all contributions to be recorded, but the law does not obligate candidates to reveal contributions of less than $100. Cottey said today Ayres is running his campaign and makes all decisions about it. Cottey said he will abide by Ayres' decision not to release the names. The News has learned from sources who attended the fund raising event that Uless Manson, George Junior Blakey, James "Slim" Correthers and Stanley Stickford either paid for tickets at the door or were sold tickets in advance.

Manson is reportedly "retired" from the gambling business. Blakey allegedly took over what remained of Manson's business after Manson was convicted and sent to prison on Federal gaming charges. Correthers is known by police to have opened a small numbers business in the 3300 block of Central, while Stickford has a list of gambling arrests from the 1950s. Asked how he happened to attend the event, Manson replied, "Oh, I just happened to be out that evening." Stickford said he purchased his ticket from Walter Abell, a Cottey supporter and executive secretary of the mayor's labor advisory committee. Abell conceded he sold Stickford the ticket, describing him as "an old friend I've known forever." Attempts to reach Blakey and Correthers were unsuccessful, but other persons who attended the event confirmed that both men were there.

Other gamblers with previously reported links to the Cottey campaign include: James Hodges, who gave $1,000 and is under investigation by the vice squad. Jimmy Stephanoff, co-owner of a The Last Row Race drivers Tom Bigelow (left) and Pete Halsmer were the guests of honor at last night's 10th annual Last Row party at the Indianapolis Press Club. The other driver in the 11th Row, Josele Garza, was invited but did not attend. Bigelow and Halsmer are holding the Borg Warner trophy which is awarded to the winner of the 500-Mile Race each year.

There are 22 Republicans and seven Democrats; 23 men and six women; 23 whites and six blacks. Mike Ellis They range in age from 30 to 70.

There are very good council members and there are bad ones. Any ordinance or resolution that comes out of the council will be colored by the personalities, backgrounds and interests of individual members. Sometimes those traits clash, resulting in necessary governmental action being stalled or killed. Having seen such influences in action, people who follow the council's activities often form opinions about the members and how they interact. Here are some thoughts by veteran council watchers: HARDEST WORKING Stephen West, known for his thoroughness, easily wins this award.

He spends considerable time studying documents, statistics and calling officials in other cities to make sure all aspects of a particular issue are considered. DULLEST Stephen West again, for the reasons stated above. His committee meetings are known for being lengthy and his comments in the full council are sometimes cut short in the interest of time. MOST INFLUENTIAL This should go to president Beurt Ser-i Vaas or majority leader Donald Miller; but perhaps not, considering the difficulty Republicans often have in agreeing on something. Allen Durnil might be a more likely candidate, taking into account his brother, Gordon Durnil, is state Republican chairman.

MOST ELOQUENT Rozelle Boyd, council minority leader. An associate dean at Indiana University, Boyd invariably speaks in an articulate and well reasoned manner. MOST QUOTABLE Glenn Howard's verbal attacks on the city administration are sharply worded and often quite imaginative. The only problem for print reporters is trying to keep up with pen and notebook when Howard gets FUNNIEST Probably Glenn Howard, although other council members sometimes laugh at him instead of with him. William Dow-den and Allen Durnil also are known to have a lively wit MOST CONGENIAL Most council members are quite friendly, a trait which no doubt helped them cet elected in the first place.

Wil liam Dowden has a reputation of being especially approachable and helpful with reporters. MOST TRAVELED As chair- man of the public works committee, Beulah Coughenour has traveled to Europe and throughout the United States to study sanitation facilities and city markets. TOUGHEST David Jones pulls no punches in criticizing a measure he dislikes. Even when he appears to favor something he will subject it to close scrutiny. MOST ARGUMENTATIVE George Tintera will often defend his position vigorously even when he appears to have little support.

He doesn't hesitate to take on his fellow Republicans MAYOR'S LEAST FAVORITE-FAVORITE William Schneider, leader of the conservative block on the council, frequently clashes with the more moderate plans of Mayor William Hudnut. On the other hand, Michael Vollmer is the one Democrat Hudnut seems to depend on in a close vote MOST LIKELY TO SUCCEED Philip Borst, son of state Sen.

ers who will be allowed to vote will be those committeemen who were elected in the May 4 primary and those vice committeemen named by those committeemen by the noon deadline on May 6. Dobkins said, "That's a violation of party rules." The rules allow the county chairman to appoint committeemen in those precincts where no one ran in the primary and in those cases where a committeeman does not name a vice committeeman. He said that there were 62 precincts where no candidates filed and he filled "all but about five of them." He said he also named about 30 vice committeemen. However, the other candidates claimed that they were never allowed to see any master list of precinct officials, if in fact one existed. As a result of the fuss the state committee decided which officials could vote.

That means Dobkins' appointees will not be allowed to vote. Last in a Series By DIANE FREDERICK "George" had been unemployed six months and his wife was holding down a parttime job when George began drinking a six-pack of beer or more a day and their children began "falling down" a lot. Said his wife, "I couldn't believe what was happening. By dinner, when I got home, he'd be drunk. "If the kids were noisy, or just looked at him the wrong way, he'd blow up.

He'd spank them and it seemed like he couldn't stop. "They were afraid of him and so was I. Later he'd be sorry and say it would never happen again, but it kept getting worse." Certainly not everyone who is unemployed turns to excessive drinking, child abuse, suicide or other extreme behavior, but these are examples of the problems that can be brought on with the stress of unemployment. A spokesman for Parents Anonymous said, "It seems like with a large percentage of calls we get, one of the contributing factors is financial problems, whether due to unemployment or underemployment. "Some parents are not aware their children's behavior is bothering therr.

more because of stress in other areas, such as unemployment and financial problems. In some situations where the man is unemployed, he is used to being out of the home, then suddenly he has the children under foot all the time. That's a pressure." The telephone number for Parents Anonymous is 631-4393.

The correct number is 633 8620. The News regrets the error.

Unemployment seems to have affected the volume of calls received by the Mental Health Association's Crisis and Suicide Intervention Service hotline. The number is 632 7575. A worker for the hotline don't know what the actual percentages are, but that's something we hear frequently, that the person calling is out of work." Barbara Taylor, assistant manager in the housing operations office of the Division of Housing and Economic Development, which acts as a liaison between mortgage companies and homeowners having problems paying their mortgages, said: "Usually when someone's behind in the mortgage because of unemploy-; ment, there may be other such as alcoholism or divorce.

By GERRY LaFOLLETTE Former Secretary of State Larry Conrad has been named chairman of the credentials committee for the Marion County Democratic reorganization convention Tuesday.

The convention, which will be the second one, will be at Hinkle Field-house. A party chairman was not chosen at the first convention because of a dispute over credentials for precinct workers. Beech Grove Mayor Elton Gesh-wiler, who is acting as temporary chairman of the party, announced Conrad's appointment. Geshwiler also said that he has asked Rep. William Crawford, Indianapolis, to be a member of the credentials committee.

There will be five people on the committee, with each of three candidates for chairman Paul Cantwell, Knute Dobkins and John Livengood naming one person. Cantwell chose attorney Tom Hinshaw and Livengood chose attorney James Tuohy. Dobkins had not decided on his representative. Livengood is a former executive assistant to the party's state chairman. Dobkins served six years as chairman, with his last term expiring when no successor was chosen at the first convention on May 8.

Cantwell is a former county commissioner and former City-County Council minority leader. Geshwiler met Wednesday with the three of them plus other persons running for vice chairman, secretary and treasurer of the county party. The convention will start at 7 p.m. For two hours before that the more than 1,200 precinct committeemen and vice committeemen my pick up their credentials. They will be distributed by ward and township.

Geshwiler passed out lists of the eligible precinct voters to all of the candidates who attended the Wednesday meeting. The only precinct work NStice? The Most Elegant By JACK ADAMS NANCY REAGAN almost changed her mind about attending the wedding of Britain's PRINCE CHARLES to LADY DIANA. The first lady had to go alone because PRESIDENT REAGAN had been shot, and had been given a low-status seat for the ceremony at St. Paul's Cathedral. "She almost changed her mind about going," writes DIANA McCLEL-LAN in Penthouse magazine.

Ms. Mc-Clellan, who writes The Ear column in the Washington Post, says, "Her escorts made up for it by insuring the most dazzling status symbols they could think of parading around London: The largest limos and an entourage of attendants and hairdressers beyond anything the English, including the queen, had imagined. The queen drove her own small car to a race meet. Nancy Reagan arrived in state like a Mafia empress." When singers used to say that performing for the Cincinnati Opera meant working in a zoo, they weren't just whistling "Dixie." For 52 years from the time it gave its first performance "Martha" on June 27, 1920 the opera was located in the Cincinnati Zoo.
