Pulliam Memorial Carrier Scholarships. The grants are worth $4,000 each at a college or university of the recipient's choice. They were awarded on a competitive basis.

Applicants were judged on length of service as a carrier, high school academic and activities records, as well as community and church service. Recipients had to carry a route for a minimum of two years. Winners averaged four-and-one-half years as carriers. Most of the recipients were involved in a variety of school activities including athletics, special interest clubs, student publications, and academic teams. Lukens 1.48 the community through church and civic organizations.

All of the winners were National Honor Society members. The News Carrier Scholarship program was established in 1965 by Eugene C. Pulliam, former publisher of The News and The Star. He died in 1975. A similar program at The Star has been in place since 1946.

To date, 1,007 scholarships have been awarded under both programs with a value of $2,455,400. The News scholarship winners, their schools and parents are: Judson A. Brewer, Brebeuf Preparatory, son of Victor and Alice Brewer. Vanita J. Clark, North Central, daughter of Velmar L.

Hyundai, which until now has made its range of IBM-compatible desktop and notebook computers in South Korea, grew consistently until 1990, Thomas said. But sales flattened in the trend has continued this year. He said that Asian manufacturers had found it difficult to keep up with the rapid changes in the American computer market, which is the largest and tends to set the pace for the world. "They have been slow to market with new products," he said. "They always seem to be behind and they haven't been able to understand why."

Davison. Amie Starr. i 'a Monsan 2.08 956 68 26 MonPw 1.54 104 24- The New York Timet A leading South Korean maker of personal computers was to announce today that It is moving its operations to Silicon Valley in California in an effort to keep up with the industry's breakneck pace. The company, Hyundai Electronics Industries, also plans to announce it is hiring Edward D. Thomas, a former executive at Compuadd and IBM, to head the transplanted personal computer operation, which will be called the Hyundai Information Systems division.

The transfer to San Jose. will cover all of Hyundai's principal computer operations in the personal computer business, including design, marketing, manufacturing and administration. Analysts say the shift is a further indication that competition in the desktop computer business continues to intensify. It is also evidence that Silicon Valley still plays a crucial role as the foremost design center for the latest microelectronics. "This is an expression of Hyundai's lack of success in the industry," said Thomas, who is 53 and until recently was president of Compuadd, an Austin, Texas-based maker of computer clones, which sells Its machines through the mail and a chain of retail shops.

"The Asian companies have done their business management in Asia," Thomas said, "and that has not been a successful model."

Frazier has issued statements calling for lower taxes, a tax deduction for loans on American-made cars and congressional term limits. Tom Sprague. 37. of Columbus, is the candidate whose name Is probably least familiar to Second District voters.

Sprague, who works for a construction firm, said he decided to run for office after he put together a radio talk show that never aired. The theme of the talk show was to be taxes, and that's the theme of Sprague's candidacy as well. "I'm talking about major, major tax cuts." Sprague said. Sprague, who is married and has one child, said heavy taxation is responsible for the country's economic woes. On the Democratic side, the incumbent Sharp Is unopposed.

A former Ball State University political science professor, Sharp, 49. first won election to Congress in 1974 when Muncie was part of the 10th District. Sharp, who Is married with two children, has earned high marks as chairman of the Energy and Power Subcommittee. There he negotiated a "pollution credit" trading system allowing When the year began, the 2nd District race looked to be a ho-hum affair. Thanks to redistricting, nine-term Democratic Rep.

Phil Sharp's re-election seemed assured once again. But the House checking scandal and a "throw out the rascals" mood among voters could play topsy-turvy with Second District politics this fall. Suddenly, the Republican primary became hot. First to announce his candidacy was a Carmel optometrist, Jerrell Zimmerman, 33. Zimmerman, who moved Into his great-grandfather's home near Pendleton, has never held office before.

Married, with no children, Zimmerman has provided eye care for eight years. Zimmerman's lack of administrative and political experience could play to anti-incumbency sentiments of voters. "The message of the campaign is that you can have good government if you have the right people in the government," Zimmerman said. Zimmerman said he expects to spend about $30,000. much of the money for a direct mail advertising campaign.

The heavyweight Republican candidate may be Muncie businessman Bill Frazler. 55. whose candidacy is a political comeback of sorts. Three times, in 1976. 1978 and 1980, Frazler was his party's chosen candidate to unseat Sharp.

On his last attempt, Frazler came close, winning 47 percent of the vote to Sharp's 53 percent. a Frazler. who Is married and has four children, is president of a mobile home company and owner of two other firms. He also served In the state senate In 1968. Not surprisingly, Frazier is banking on his experience and high name recognition to do well in the primary despite a thrifty campaign that had spent less than $4,000 by the end of March.

"It's probably not necessary for us to spend a great deal. My two opponents are nice young men, but they're never participated in the political process before," Fraer said. Grain pricai Monday at Indlanapolia area levatora. CORN: No. 2 yellow OATS: No.

"You believe in the tooth fairy if you believe these fares aren't going to go back up," TWA's Carl Icahn said on ABC's "This Week with David Brink-ley." American Airlines Chairman Robert Crandall said on the same program that the company's new fare structure is "good not only for consumers and for the economy, but it's good for all airlines" because It will increase travel. "If I were so fortunate as to be the only airline in America we wouldn't raise fares for a long time," Crandall said.

American has announced plans to lower fares as much as 50 percent in some cases. Many other carriers have matched the new price structure. TWA. which is trying to fight its way out of bankruptcy court, said last week that while not matching American it will cut many ticket prices an additional 10 percent to 20 percent in response to the stronger airline's action. "The reason American Is doing this, without question in my mind.

Is to do away with the weaker carriers." Icahn said. He said he wasn't criticizing Crandall, who he said was acting in the best interests of his The Indianapolis News utilities to spread the cost of meeting air quality regulations. Yet Sharp could face a tough re-election if voters believe he has become too distant. He has been criticized for seldom returning to the Second District. He also overdrew his House checking account 120 times.
