Authorities search tor missing A mangled auto sits on the Long Island Railroad tracks In Brentwood, crossing where the accident occurred last night. Police said three 20 were killed. HE CLAIMS SELF-DEFENSE WILDWQOD CREST (AP) Authorities have dragged a river and combed the field behind the Emerald City disco in Cherry Hill. A psychic has been called in and a $10,000 reward has been offered. But there has been no sign of 17-year-old Jimmy Davolos.

Police are reluctant to say he was the victim of foul play, but they are leaning toward that theory. Man kills grizzly, but story disputed 9 14 Wiseman, who has recovered, told authorities he stabbed the female grizzly twice in the throat with a razor-sharp arrow after the bear attacked him without provocation. "The bear came at me without warning," Wiseman, 46, wrote in the January issue of Outdoor Life magazine. "Ears flattened, neck hairs stiffly erect, it growled fiercely as it charged, full bore, right at me." It initially was believed the bear died of a severed jugular vein caused by Wiseman's arrow, but the post-mortem exam showed the neck wounds could not have killed the huge animal, McChesney said Saturday. He said the animal probably died of a 1 -Inch-wide wound, 6-to-12 inches deep, from a blade "which entered the bear behind the right shoulder, went between the ribs and struck (a) large blood vessel" leading to the heart.

Investigators theorize the wound may have been caused by a fired Police said they have been escorting workers in and out of the plant, where the main driveway was covered with broken bottles and roofing nails yesterday morning. The strikers denied responsibility for the obstacles. One striker, John Maher, 35, of 56 Anne Carteret, was charged last night with obstructing passage, after he refused to allow some workers through the gate at about 8 p.m., police said. Maher was released on his own recognizance. Manufacturing operations have not been interrupted by the strikers, according to Silvan Lutkewitte, the firm's manufacturing manager.

But this one is one of those cases that defies the odds." Authorities say they feel the shy, mild-mannered Davolos would have called his family if he had run away. They say if he had been kidnapped, surely the parents would have been contacted and a ransom would have been demanded by now. A borough police officer, who declined to identify himself, said Friday night that police spent "an awful lot of hours and energy," on the investigation, but to no avail. Davolos, who was timid around girls, went with a friend to attend a "George Thorogood and the Destroyers" concert at Emerald City. The pair met two casual acquaintances in North Wildwood and the four drank beer and smoked some marijuana while Davalos drove.

Suspicious fire damages 1-family home SOMERVILLE Borough police and members of the Somerset County Prosecutor's Office are investigating a fire of suspicious origin that caused extensive damage to a home at 54 Prospect St. early yesterday morning. The occupants of the one-family dwelling, Donald Pantel, his wife and two young children, were awakened by police officers after an unidentified caller reported the fire to police at 3:20 a.m. The family escaped unhurt. Police said the fire started outside the carport and spread to the kitchen.

Police described the blaze as "very suspicious," and said investigators are trying to determine if a flammable liquid was used to start the fire. One policeman was was treated at the scene for smoke inhalation, police said.

by Reiner Brothers Truck Sales belonged to Kenneth FORT COLLINS, Colo. (AP) A pathologist at Colorado State University has disputed the story of a burly Colorado mountainman who said he killed a rampaging 400-pound grizzly bear by plunging a broken hand-held arrow into its neck. But the Crestone, hunting guide and camp outfitter, Ed Wiseman, still says he was accurate in his original recounting of the attack in which he was seriously mauled last Sept. 23. A post-mortem on the body of the female grizzly was conducted by Dr.

Albert McChesney, associate professor of pathology at CSU here, as part of a federal and state investigation into the attack. Investigators said the probe was launched because state and federal acts outlaw the killing of grizzlies except in self-defense. But Harry Stiles of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and Jack Grieb of the Colorado Division of Wildlife would not discuss the case in detail. AP pholo N.Y., about tt miles from the year old men from Bayshore With such a wound, the bear would have died within five or six minutes, McChesney said, adding it was uncertain whether a man could drive a handheld arrow far enough Into the thickly-muscled shoulder of a grizzly bear to have caused the wound.

But Wiseman said in a telephone interview that he remained sure he killed the bear with an arrow he picked up from the ground as he was attacked: "There Is no chance that bear was wounded before it attacked me," he said. "At this point, I'd be willing to bet a lot of money it wasn't wounded." He said he could not be certain how many times he stabbed the bear, adding, "You know when you're fighting for your life with a bear, there's no way to remember exactly what happened." 2 brothers on trial EBENSBUKG, Pa. (AP) David and Norman Johnston, two of three brothers charged with trying to cover up their alleged Interstate theft ring by murdering informers, go on trial here tomorrow. Security will be heavy at the Cambria County Courthouse. David, 31, of Kennett Square and Norrnan, 26, of West Grove, are to be tried on a change of venue in connection with five murders and one attempted murder.
