Soviet newspapers rarely report the do- tails of criminal incidents. But in recent months, authorities-have intensified a campaign against urging increased pre- ventive measures.

Against Flynt COLlMBUS. Ohio (AP) -Trial In a $160 million defamation suit against Hustler magazine and its publisher, Larry Flynt, has been delayed because, the judge says, Flynt is addicted to drugs and unable to defend himself. The trial was sched-'i uled to begin Wednesday before Franklin County Common Pleas Court Judge Craig Wright. The suit was filed in 1977 by Penthouse Magazine Publisher Robert C. Guccione and his associate pubisher, Kathy Keeton.

The suit charges Flynt and Hustler published a cartoon and other material allegedly defaming and humiliating Guccione and Miss Keeton. Flynt, paralyzed since he was shot in 1978 in Atlanta, cannot give a deposition in the case until he undergoes a drug detoxification process scheduled to begin in early January, AP LAMfphOtO not everyone is Steve Martin was greeted by smiling Playboy bunnies and excited townspeople when he visited Terre Haute, last week.

It seemed, said Mrs. Nicholson, like a good way to get some good publicity.

With Playboy picking up the tab, a chef from Maxims of Paris, a four-star restaurant in Chicago, was flown in to prepare lobster for Martin and the mayor. Two bunnies came along to help. "We thought it would just be the bunch of them and a couple reporters," Mrs. Nicholson said. It didn't quite turn out that way.

More than 100 media representatives descended on the res taurant to record Martin's meal for posterity. As if that wasn't enough, Martin's advance men ordered customers who had been eating there to leave. Mrs. Nicholson said many left without paying their checks. Playboy representatives gave her S40 to cover that loss, but Mrs.

Nicholson said she doubts it will cover everything. "I may have to replace two tables. The people stood on them and they are real wobbly. I don't know if they can be fixed or not. They cost $75 apiece," she said.

"The partition between the and the coffee machine needs to be rebraced or something. They stood on that, too." TERRE HAUTE. Ind. (AP) -Customers left without paying their tabs. Television cameramen climbed on tables.

Strangers helped themselves to pie and Cokes. All in all, Sally Nicholson and Alice Corenflos aren't likely to forget the day comedian Steve Martin dropped in for lunch at their Shuffle Inn. "Never again," sighed Mrs. Nicholson. The visit was thought up by Mayor William Brighton and his staff after Martin said in Playboy Magazine that this western Indiana community of 70,000 was "the most nowhere place in America." Not so, said Brighton.
