The boy was identified as Dar-rick Hill, 1803 Loreto Drive. He was in critical condition at Brackenridge Hospital's intensive care unit. Police said he suffered massive head injuries.

(AP Slaying defendant Olan Randle Robison allegedly was present when people remarked that a British woman in the area had a gold bracelet possibly worth $4,000, a wit-: ness testified at a preliminary hearing here Wednesday. The British woman was one of three people later found slain at a house near Velma after an apparent robbery attempt, investigators said.

Under questioning by Stephens County District Attorney Tony Burns, Sharon Briscoe of Healdton said the remark about the bracelet was made by Molly Davis of Healdton. Mrs. Davis' sister, Sheila Lovejoy, was one of the shooting victims. Lovejoy, Averil Bourque and Bob Swinford, 41, were found shot to death in the house they rented east of Velma. Investigators believe robbery was the motive of the June 12 shooting.

Charged with first-degree murder are 34-year-old Robison and Johnny Gillum, 29, both of the Healdton area, and William Starr Jordan, 25, of Wichita Falls, Texas. Jordan is still in Wichita Falls, fighting extradition. Investigators believe the killers of the three were searching for expensive jewelry, but found only pieces of costume jewelry later sold for $5. Witnesses had testified the three defendants left a party in a Healdton home, carrying guns, and returned two hours later. Robison allegedly had blood on his boot.

They brought back pieces of jewelry, testimony indicated. 1. 38, of London, had come to southern Oklahoma to visit her sister and had decided to extend the visit. Mrs. Bourque, 41, from South Wales, England, later joined her.

Sufi Plww by Tom laiM Steve Jackson read the Defense Department re-, port on the rescue try in researching his game. Austinite's game re-creates raid to free hostages By PETE SZILAGYI American-Statesman Staff If Austinite Steve Jackson's latest enterprise is a success, many Americans someday will find themselves lurking in the darkness outside the United States Embassy in Tehran, trying to figure out a way to get in without awakening the militant Iranian students.

"They can blow a hole in the outside wall, try to scale it silently or just knock on the door, posing as an Iranian supply brigade," Jackson said, pointing to the embassy wall on the colorful 16-by-21-inch game board. However, gaining entry to the embassy is small change in "Raid on Iran," a game that Jackson invented and is marketing internationally. After the player on the American commando side gets into the compound, he has to face the militant students, mobs of what Jackson calls "screaming fanatics," and risk helicopter failure in his attempt to free the hostages. In this most contemporary war game, the other player takes the Iranian role and must thwart the commandos. If he fails, he kills as many hostages as he can.

But, of course, it's all for points. At $3, "Raid on Iran," may be the cheapest war ever fought. And it can be carried in a back pocket, so the commandos and Iranians can have at it virtually anywhere the board will fit. Jackson says more than 2,000 games have been sold in the month and a half it has been on the market in this country, Great Britain and Canada. The 26-year-old war-game aficionado said he first pondered such a game the day after the botched April 25 rescue attempt, in which two aircraft were lost and eight Americans killed.

"It was an interesting tactical situation," he said, adding that his re-creation of what might have happened points out that "it could have worked. I just wish we could have tried." The scenario created In the game is as accurate as possible, with the layout of the embassy compound compromised only by the fact that it had to fit on a rectangular board, he said. Sources he used when designing the game were the official Defense Department report of the failed raid, accounts by hostages who have been released and discussions with those familiar with military proc-! edures. "I'm satisfied that this is a good representation of what could have been expected to happen," Jackson said. However, the need for simplicity dictated that the game begin at the gates of the embassy, which the commando team never saw.

Also, at the quest of some friends, he devised an alternate game played on the same board in which the Aya-" tollah Ruhollah Khomeini Is captured and held hostage, although "as far as we know, he has never set foot in the embassy compound," Jack-' son said. Among the cardboard game markers with drawings of commandos, hostages, militant Iranians, weapons and helicopters, there is one bearing the ayatollah's scowling countenance. "This game is not played for jollies. It's enjoyable, of course, but no war game is just for fun," he said. Among people who play war games "there is serious competitiveness and a sense of interest in the period.

They're still fighting Napoleon's battles, and they have been over for a longtime." He said the game takes more time to learn than, say. Monopoly, but it is relatively simple as war games go. The first time "Raid on Iran" is played, it might take up to three hours, but as the players become more laminar witn the rules and embassy compound, it can be played in about 90 minutes, Jackson said. "There has been no adverse reaction" to the game, despite the sensitivity some might have about playing and replaying an embarrassing episode in this country's history, Jackson reports.
