A12 S.F. EXAMINER nWr May 10. 1982 berserk, kills woman, attacks 3 Two U.S. expelled envoys by Poles WARSAW, Poland AP) Two U.S. diplomats were ordered expelled today for receiving from a dissident Polish scientist unspecified materials "hitting at the interest of Poland," state-run television reported.

The television identified the two as U.S. Embassy science attache John W. Zerolis and cultural affairs officer James D. Howard. The U.S.

Embassy issued a statement rejecting Polish charges that the two had tried to destabilize the Polish state. But embassy sources confirmed that they had met with the dissident scientist, Ryszard Her-czynski. The Polish TV report said Her-czynski was detained yesterday while handing materials to Zerolis. "They were confiscated, and the fact that they had been in his possession has been confirmed by Zerolis by his signature," the report said. The broadcast identified Her-czynski as a scientist with the Institute of Basic Problems of i.

Officers said Jordan fainted several times in the patrol car enroute to Ingleside station, so was taken to Mission Emergency Hospital. Later, he was returned to City Prison and booked for investigation of murder and attempted murder.

Jordan's father said his son along with his wife of a year lived at home with the senior Jordans. The young man, an apprentice auto mechanic, had a history of mental problems, his father said. Buenavista was hospitalized in Mission's intensive care unit for severe head and facial wounds. Neither the initial victim nor the woman attacked on Anderson street was hospitalized. Betty Lament was walking her English bull terrier, Pattina, in Holly Park at about 6:30 a.m.

when she saw this "naked guy with red splotches down his back" attack a neightor just returning from a stroll with her dog. "All of a sudden he had her down on the sidt'walk," Lamont said. "I couldn't believe my eyes because he was naked." She said she saw the nude man fighting with someone and then dash into 353 Park the murder victim's yellow, frame residence. The elderly woman was asleep in her bed at the time. Her 50-year-old mentally retarded son slept through the attack.

Umiont said, "The cops came yelling stay in the and I ran inside. That park has a lot of weirdos, but I didn't think anything like that could happen in the neighborhood. It's always been so nice and quiet." Other neighbors described the dead woman as a helpless diabetic who had had one foot amputated. Her face had been mutilated with kitchen knives. Homicide Inspector Mike Mullane said: 'It's the most vicious assault I've ever seen." Lt.

Olin Allgire of Ingleside station said Jordan's parents called police about two hours before the rampage began expressing concern that their son was violent and asking that he be taken to Mission Emergency at 23rd and Potrero. Allgire said officers answering the call reported the young man seemed rational, but at the parents' insistence transported him to the hospital with the father who said he wouldn't give his son the car keys following in his own car. The hospital took over from that point, Allgire said. Hospital administrator Jeff Lang said Jordan arrived at 5 a.m. and left at 6:10 while being processed for admission to a ward for the mentally disturbed.

During the admission process, Jordan pushed aside a clinician, Lang said, and walked down a hall way. Security officers were called, the administrator said, but failed to find the man. of Betty Lamont tries to phone insofeiiiiifeiig Examiner news services Soviet Defense Minister Dmitry Ustinov said yesterday the United States is trying to hide its goal of military domination with "pacifying verbiage" about disarmament "The U.S. ruling circles are conducting an openly hostile policy with regard to the Soviet Union and other socialist countries," he said in an article in Pravda. The statement, issued on the 37th anniversary of V-E Day, appeared before President Reagan proposed negotiations to reduce ballistic missile stockpiles.

In the United States, Democrats responded to Reagan's proposals by stepping up their clamor for approval of SALT II, the treaty former President Carter finished negotiating but didn't get through the Senate. "The only way to hold the Soviets in check while modernizing our weapons is to give formal approval, in some way, to the unratified SALT II treaty," Edmund S. Muskie said yesterday. "There may be some changes that could be made to improve its chances of ratification," said the former senator I Holly Park Park V.

Polish television said that in connection with the two envoys actions "incompatible with their diplomatic status, the Foreign Ministry has asked them to leave Polish territory." Polish television described the documents as papers reporting on the Polish intellectual community and its reaction to martial law. Embassy sources said the U.S. diplomats had visited Herczynski's apartment to discuss the impending arrival of a visitor from the US.

They denied that Zerolis or Howard had anything to do with any documents. from Maine. Muskie, secretary of state in the last months of the Parter administration, had been asked by Senate Minority Leader Robert C.

Byrd, to repond to the speech on behalf of the Democrats. Sen. Sam Nunn, a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, said, "The president ought to seriously consider taking SALT and then proposing any amendments he thinks necessary." Rep. Thomas Downey, said, 'This proposal is only a negotiating position. Even if the Soviets warm to it, and I hope they do, it will take some time for implementation.

In the meantime it would be prudent for us to have the Soviets bound by the SALT II limits." In a speech in Eureka, 111., yesterday, Reagan had proposed that the United States and Soviet Union reduce by one third their complement of more than 7,000 nuclear warheads each. SALT II, which calls for the Soviets to cut back 250 land-based or submarine-fired missiles or long-range bombers, was negotiated over a seven-year period by three presidents. up some submarine-based missiles and perhaps some of its planned MX missiles. The Soviets might be reluctant to scrap existing, deployed missiles in exchange for a US. agreement to refrain from deploying the MX, which remains to be built 'The main threat to peace posed by nuclear weapons today is the growing instability of the nuclear balance," the president said.

"This is due to the increasingly destructive potential of the massive Soviet buildup in ballistic missile forces." The president proposed that no more than half of the warheads remaining after the one-third cut be land-based. "In a second phase, we will seek to achieve an equal ceiling on other elements of our strategic nuclear forces, including limits on ballistic missile throw weight at less than current American levels. In both phases, we shall insist on verification procedures to insure compliance with the agreement," he said. An important goal of the president's proposal is to deny either superpower the ability to launch a "first-strike" against the other. The administration believes the Soviets are building toward the capability of launching a first-strike that would so cripple the United States that effective retaliation would be impossible.

In his speech, the president sought to gain the political initiative on strategic arms, somewhat as he did in his "zero-option" speech last November in which he proposed eliminating medium-range nuclear missiles from Europe. case of 4 Global Yacht in September 1977 after the suits had been filed. When they disappeared, Global inventory remained in the warehouse. Two years later, Reinertson reported his 36-foot sailboat The Shalom, destroyed at sea on its way to Catalina Island. He collected insurance on the $50,000 vessel; the other passenger at the time of the reported accident was Suzanne Wright.

Shields said his department couldn't bring charges concerning the debts and didn't have enough time or information to investigate reports of other boat insurance scams, Including reports involving two boats in Hawaii, at least one boat in Florida and other California boats. The investigator said there still is too much to be done to finish a warrant on the Freedom 11, including laboratory tests on pieces of the Freedom II to verify whether it was, or at least could have been, Reinertson's boat, the Inspiration. "Actually," he said, "any jury that looked at what I've got would say the boats are the same."

The British Defense Ministry said British jets attacked the 1.298-ton Argentine fishing boat Narwal 66 miles off the Falklands because it was shadowing the fleet and appeared to be "fitted out for surveillance." A spokesman said the 25 crewmen abandoned ship and surrendered, and the ship was also taken into custody. One Argentine sailor was reported killed, one seriously injured and 12 others slightly hurt.

Press Association, Britain's domestic news agency, said the ship's crew included an Argentine naval officer, Lt. Cmdr. Gonzales Llanos. The agency's correspondent aboard the Hermes, Peter Archer, said the Narwal had been ordered out of the 200-mile 'total exclusion zone" last week by a British frigate. Argentina claimed the Narwal was sunk and British jets machine-gunned the ship's lifeboats, forcing crewmen into the frigid South Atlantic.

Britain defense officials said the Argentines were lying. "he never did," Tomlin said. Meanwhile, Dorothy Dozier suffers through holidays without a customary call from her son, Bobbie. In the past it was not unusual to go weeks, even months, without hearing from him, she said in a telephone interview from Baltimore, Md. But he's never been out of touch for this long and a missed call last Christmas 'Signaled real trouble, she said.

Dozier also blames her son's misfortune on his charismatic buddy, Russell, who she thinks may have used threatening or violent means to keep Bobbie from calling his parents or surrendering to police. "Bobbie indicated once that Russell could have him hurt really badly, like he could hire someone to hurt him," Mrs. Dozier said. Many creditors, insurance companies and former employees are waiting for the pair to reappear. Russell's former business associates at the now-defunct Las Vegas boat and camper outlet called Pleasure World want $85,000 in company money they say Russell absconded with in 1971, a A I Ogden Ave.

a -FT UK, Unidentified witness and neighbor Jordan's father, Marco Jordan, claimed his son began acting strange after receiving a snot at the hospital. He said his son left the hospital during what the father called a very lengthy admissions procedure. "The hospital has responsibility for what happpened," the father said. The father said he left the hospital in his car and tried to follow his son but lost him. Then, according to the father, young Jordan returned home but his mother would not let him in the house.

"My wife didn't want to open the door because she was afraid of him," the elder Jordan said. "He was mad." Jordan claimed they called police again, while the son was outside pounding on the door. Then, he left at about 6:30 a.m. Jordan, who came here from El Salvador about 20 years ago when Eric was a baby, said his son had a history' of mental problems, having been in the hospital at least five times since he was 1(5. "Sometimes he was angry, sometimes he was sad," the father said.

Dr. John Hopkin, the hospital chief of psychiatry, said confidentiality laws prohibited him from explaining the kind of treatment Jordan received during his brief stay at Mission Emergency. bxanuner staff writer James Setter-merhorn contributed to this report. However, he added, as he began a fourth day of talks with the British and Argentines, that there were "reasons for hope" that the two countries might agree to a peaceful settlement of the conflict. In London, the Foreign Office said "the government's priority is to do everything possible to achieve a negotiated solution." But the British also said that they doubted U.N.

negotiations to end the Falklands crisis had achieved much, and they threatened more military action against Argentina if peace talks drag on more than a few days. The warning came as Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher met with her war Cabinet and British warships shelled Argentine defenses around the Falklands capital of Port Stanley again. The report, from the agency's correspondent aboard the British carrier Hermes, said today's "mission was seen as a softening-up process before an eventual landing by British troops." It gave no other details. A spokesman at the British Defense Ministry said he had "no information" on the reported attack. But Archer's dispatch was submitted to military censors on board the armada flagship.

Informed military sources said the requisitioned liner Canberra carrying 2,500 marines and paratroopers was hours away from the Falklands, seized April 2 after 149 years of British rule. living in a deluxe Hawaiian condo, sailing off Puerto Vallarta and bar-hopping in Nevada. Most recently, Jewel Jones, a friend of the two men in Carson City, reported seeing Russell, known to her as "Poppa John" Farrell, several times in the last month. "He pops in and out real quickly," Jones said. "He's in good health but he misses Cherie very much." Suzanne Russell posed as Cherie Anne Dozier's wife and Farrell's daughter in Virginia City, where Jones worked in the Dozier's Stage Stop Bar.

Jones said Farrell has visited her at the Dog House bar in Carson City, but is always close-mouthed about his current source of income, the whereabouts of Dozier and the entire Freedom II incident. Shields, Russell's creditors and the relatives of Dozier and Kristin Tomlin still have dozens of questions about all three subjects. The Tornl ins and the Doziers cling to the hope that their children are alive. In optimistic moments they propose that the entire accident was a From Page Al nized by 17 nations of the non-aligned movement and the nations of the Organization of American States." Gustavo Figueroa. chief of the Cabinet and third-ranking official in the Foreign Ministry, then added to the confusion by saying: "We don't want sovereignty right now.

What we mean is that we want to make it easier for Mrs. Thatcher to sit down and negotiate without having to say that sovereignty belongs to Argentina before negotiations begin." Analysts at first interpreted the statements as meaning that Argentina had abandoned recognition of its sovereignty over the Falklands as a condition for a cease-fire and with-draw of troops. But in reality, the statements appear to mean: "Why make it a precondition when the subject is not one to be negotiated," The Argentine Foreign Ministry then said the remarks were a reiteration of Argentina's earlier position. In New York, U.N. Secretary-General Javier Perez de Cuellar said in response to Argentine statements that it was "very difficult to say they have softened on that particular issue.

"From the very beginning it was very clear that at this stage they were not to raise the question of sovereignty. We are discussing on a procedural basis, not on a substantive basis From Page Al tion Center at the small, liberal arts college, the president dismissed the detente era of the 1970s as a failure. However, he called on Soviet President Leonid Brezhnev to join with the West in a wide-ranging new era of cooperation that would include and go beyond arms control. Reagan disclosed that he has written Brezhnev, urging that strategic arms negotiations begin by the end of June. He pledged that "we will negotiate seriously, in good faith, and carefully consider all proposals made by the Soviet Union." Reagan wrote Brezhnev last Friday.

Charging that the Soviets appear to have violated existing arms accords, Reagan justified the broad scope of his new armscontrol approach by saying, "we must establish firm criteria for, arms control in the 1980s agreements that provide only the appearance of arms control breed dangerous illusions." The president's proposal, which remains to be spelled out in detail, calls for a first phase in which the number of warheads and missiles would be reduced and a second phase in which an equal ceiling would be imposed on the total "throw weight" of both sides' missile inventories. The Soviets have nearly a 3-1 advantage over the United States in missile throw weight a term which covers the concept of destructive power. The Reagan plan would require the Soviets to dismantle many of their huge intercontinental SS-18 missiles, while the US. presumably would give week after marrying his secretary Suzanne Wright Creditors and former employees of Leisure World, a separate business set up by Russell and his new wife, seek thousands of dollars in loan payments and back wages from the company, declared bankrupt in 1974 shortly after its owners disappeared from Las Vegas. Three years later, a woman calling herself Suzanne Wright leased some Oxnard property for a yacht dealership.

Employed at a warehouse on the premises where Wright's boats were to be kept was Robert Dozier. By mid-1977, three suits had been filed against Wright and her business, Global Yacht Sales, charging fraud and failure to pay thousands of dollars in rent According to attorneys who handled those complaints, Wright allegedly would obtain the purchase price for Chrysler boats from a finance source, and then take possession of the boats without forwarding the payment to Chrysler. Wright and Dozier left Oxnard and London British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher convened her "war Cabinet" amid signs that British troops will invade the Falklands if U.N. peace efforts fail. Buenos Aires A spokesman said Argentine sovereignty "is not a condition or a precondition" to peace talks.

Then he added that "sovereignty is outside discussion." United Nations Secretary-General Javier Perez de Cuellar began a fourth day of talks with British and Argentine officials, saying there were "reasons for hope" that settlement could be reached. British war correspondents aboard the fleet reported British frigates and destroyers were now within sight of the Falklands, moving in closer to enforce a total blockade of the islands. The British said yesterday that their ships and aircraft bombarded Argen hoax, an idea investigators toyed with when the boat and bodies failed to wash ashore. Kristin Tomlin, who was 19 when she disappeared aboard the Freedom II, was the youngest crew member. Investigators say she probably was an innocent and probably didn't know much about her shipmates.

"We really kind of think she got mixed up in this situation and got in over her head and didn't know how to get out of it," said her stepmother, Audrey Tomlin, who thinks Kristin may still be alive and under the spell of John Russell. "She has to 'stay dead' forever or for a long time which might be painful," she said. "She was at the age (when she left home) where she was young and romantic and wanted to live happily ever after. She was just too young to realize how really rotten people can be." A man calling himself John Farrell, Russell's favorite alias, telephoned the Tomlins in Oregon two days after the shipwreck. He said he would visit the family to talk about the accident, but Lone detective pursues Stinson Beach 'shipwreck' From Page Al and Dozier.

Nearly six months have passed since Russell and Dozier limped into Stinson Beach to report the loss of their boat, crew member Kristin Tom-lin, 19, and Russell's wife, Suzanne, 31. The boat hasn't been salvaged. The men have stayed hidden. The women, presumed lost at sea, have never been found. While the Marin County sheriff's office and the Coast Guard have dropped the case, one detective in Los Angeles has kept it barely alive.

Juggling the Freedom II mystery with a full caseload. Detective Rex Shields said he hopes to devote his undivided attention to issuing a felony warrant soon charging Russell, Dozier and investigator Doug Reinertson in an insurance fraud scam. But Shields admits he has no idea when the warrant will be finished, and while he knows where Reinertson is today, he hasnt a clue as to how he will serve the document on the elusive sailors, reported by various sources as.
