The staff will be trying another approach to juvenile justice. "The old place looks like a jail, smells like a jail and feels like a jail. The new place changes all that," said Juvenile Court Judge James W.

Payne. "It is our philosophy that a child ought to be treat razed and a badly needed parking lot will take its place. Also, the building now used as Juvenile court will be remodeled and connected to the new center. Though Payne calls the center "state-of-the-art In every way," he said he is prepared for criticism for one aspect of the building: there are 64 fewer beds than in the old center, although juvenile crime has increased dramatically in the last year. According to Marlon County Prosecutor Stephen Goldsmith, more than 6.000 Juvenile cases will pass through the system in 1989, up from about 4.000 In 1988.

Taxpayers will pay for the facility through bonds issued by the. city-county government. Workers at the two-story brick building at 25th Street and Keystone Avenue are adding finishing touches to the interior. Nearly six years of planning are at an end along with the years of criticism, officials hope.

The old center, built in 1957. scored poorly in routine Marion County grand jury investigations in 1983 and 1985. The grand jury called the detention cen ter oppressive and criticized its leaky roof, dirty floors, leaking plumbing and antiquated toilet facilities, peeling paint and lack of privacy for. children, among other problems. The 1983 grand jury called the facilities for children "worse than the cells in the county jail." The new building takes into account all these concerns, Payne said.

There will be private sleeping rooms with cupboards for personal belongings, carpeted social rooms, nearby counseling offices, four courtrooms, a cafeteria and a gymnasium. At the center of the facility will be a large educational area. In February, the old center will be Dean death revisited Teens with Vision don't get bombed Student diplomats prevent war between India, Pakistan By MARGARET HADDIX The Indianapolis Newt Pakistan, Cool it. Do you want to blow us all away? U.S.S.R. Real diplomats would perhaps phrase It differently.

But when about 20 students at Shortrldge Junior High School sat down to prevent nuclear war Monday afternoon, their communications were direct. Pakistan, You have got to be friends with India. from China The messages were sent back and forth between the students in the Shortrldge Strive II program as they played Wildfire, a game simulating a conflict between India and Pakistan that could lead to a nuclear holocaust. The game was put on by Visions Youth Leadership Association, a group for youths aged 12 to 18, which is funded by the city's division of occupational and community services. Visions, which had previously done Wildfire just among its members, got a $2,000 grant earlier this year from Youth as Resources to take it to others.

At Shortrldge, the Strive II students and some Visions members played representatives of five countries: India, Pakistan, United States, the Soviet Union and China. They had three days condensed Into 30 minutes to keep the Pakistan of 1990 from detonating a bomb because of a dispute over water resources and unrest in both countries.

It's kind of weird, but the man who bought the wreckage of James Dean's death-mobile is going to restage the crash that killed the Indiana-born actor In 955.

The re-enactment will be a key scene In "James Dean. The Legend," a $22 million movie-biography of Dean that is coming from GMT Studios in Culver City, Calif. George Barris, a big-deal California car customizer In the 1950s and 1960s, will recreate the 85-mph crash In January at the spot where Dean was killed on Sept. 30, 1955. Barris customized the hot rods for Dean's film, "Rebel Without a Cause," and painted the racing numbers on Dean's new Porsche the week before his death.

Dean was on his way to a car race when his Porsche 550 Spyder collided with a Ford sedan near Paso Robles, Calif. Replicas of the cars, driven by stuntmen, will be used for Barris' re-creation. Five ground cameras and two cameras in helicopters will film the risky stunt. When Barris was here in 1982 for a 500 World of Wheels show, he said he bought Dean's smashed for $5,000 to show it as a highway safety display at auto shows. After being displayed In Miami in 1960, the Porsche was locked inside a large trailer heading back to California.

When the truck arrived, the Porsche was gone. He hooks a winner The world's largest hand-carved wooden fishing lure was sold at auction at the Greenfield Armory Sunday. It switched owners for $2,500.

A woman from Texas bought it. She sets up at big outdoor flea markets in Dallas. She loved it," White said. Not much horse sense For those who say Indianapolis isn't Big Time: The New York City Council passed legislation last week that said the city's 68 horse-drawn carriages can only operate on midtown Manhattan streets between midnight and 7 a.m. fun times for a ride and doubled the carriage ride fare.

During daylight hours, the carriages pretty much are restricted now to Central Park. The new ordinance hiked the price of a half-hour ride In a Manhattan carriage to $34 for the first half-hour and $10 for each additional 15 minutes. Chew on that while you ride your $30-a-half-hour, $60-an-hour carriage in Indianapolis.

"These are not my words. I have taken them from a variety of sources." But Williams said the racism, if there is any, appears to be coming from Washington Township Schools.

Williams said Roach rejected an offer to have Fresh speak in place of Flavor Flav. Also at the press conference were Mmoja AJabu, spokesman Sunday night.
