POTTSVILLE (PA.) REPUBLICAN WEDNESDAY, MAY 29, 1974 17 Ureett roi LOS ANGELES (AP) Neighbors tell of drinking beer and visiting with Symbionese Liberation Army members, until shortly before the six terrorists died during a shootout with authorities. The people on 54th Street watched the four white women load guns and ammunition just before the gun battle May 17. I They saw a black man, later identified as the "Cinque" of the Patricia Hearst kidnap communiques, sitting on the porch of the little yellow bungalow. They saw a man, later identified as William Wolfe, sitting on a top bunk bed, twirling a pistol cowboy-style. They heard a tall white woman say: "We've got to be alert got to be on guard." And they heard the whispered plans to leave that night plans that were never fulfilled, for the six terrorits who had vowed to die for their revolution died in the flaming ruins of the little yellow house.

The bungalow on 54th Street was known to neighbors as a party house. People dropped in all the time. The SL4 terrorists were lodged there after offering Christine Johnson $100 to spend the night in the house she shared with Minnie Lewis and jMinnie's five children. The children left for school the morning of May 17 unaware of the fugitives hiding in the rear bedroom. But by afternoon, neighborhood children were dashing down the street with the news "those SLA" people had turned up on their block.

"We saw him sitting on the porch but we didn't know he was that SLA guy," Florence Lishey said Friday, referring to Donald DeFreeze, the SLA leader "Cinque." "They were partying all day over there," she said, "but that wasn't unusual 'cause they party in that place everyday." Brenda Daniels, 17, said she fell asleep in the house the night the SLA arrived. The next morning DeFreeze sent her to the store for beer and snacks. He seemed worried about police activity in the area, but residents said they assured him it was not unusual in the black, lower middle-class neighborhood in south Los Angeles. The neighbors who visited with the SLA members said they don't believe the terrorists realized jantil minutes before the first shots were fired that police were massing for a major assault. When it finally became obvious the house was surrounded, two of the neighbors left, but they couldn't wake Miss Johnson.

She stumbled out in the midst of the battle, Two others fled during a lull early in the shootout. They were Tony Lewis. 8, told by an SLA woman to hide in the bathtub for safety, and Clarence Ross, 23. wlio told authorities he remembers little of what transpired. "One thing's for sure," said a neighbor.

"Those SLA people picked the wrong house on the wrong street in the wrong town. Nothing stays a secret around here very long."

Gardiner said customers are cooperating iri his printed penny venture and view the situation as "just one more shortage to put up with." I Some Houston businesses are rounding off prices to meet the shortage. As a result, thq customer sometimes gets shortchanged. The federal reserve bank in Houston says it is dumping as many pennies as ever into the market, but they just seem to disappear.

During a typical month last year, a reserve spokesman said, the federal offices here would receive $11,000 worth of pennies returned from the local banks for redistribution. Now, he says, only about $2,000 worth is returned from the banks each month. And commercial banks are having the same problem. Says one banker: "Once we'd get $500 to $1,500 pennies back (from circulation) each week. Now we're not getting any back." t- TII 1" T5t T5! T5! shortage of the copper coins.

"This was about the last thing that we wanted to do," store manager Dick Gardiner said. "But we really had little choice. We didn't want to cheat our customers, but we still had to make change." Customers receive green slips of paper, printed with the company name, instead of pennies for change. Five of the paper slips, which are slightly larger than a business card, are worth a nickel. "What else could we do," asks Gardiner.

"We couldn't get pennies. And if we went through the store and rounded off all our prices the sales tax would still defeat us. We just can't do without pennies." The theory behind the penny shortage is that hoarders are storing them away in the belief that the copper they're made of will become more valuable than the worth of the penny itself. The U.S. Mint says it is coining all the pennies it: can, but the shortage persists.

The electronic warfare simulator is an extension of the old table-top method of gaming. (AP Wirephoto) War Games Leave Table To Computer Simulators NEWPORT, R.I. AP) In an attempt to make war games more realistic, the U.S. Naval War College is replacing its traditional tabletop method of fighting battles with computers and movie projectors. And sometimes even politicians.

War games are regarded as the cheapest possible way to discover and demonstrate faulty combat decisions, and the new methods being tried here make the center a trailblazer in that area, says Capt. Don Henderson, director of the college's war gaming center. Since politicians often are looking over the shoulders of military men. politics was injected into a recent exercise. i Henderson said top-level State Department employes acted as umpires in the game and controlled the escalation of involvement, "to the complete frustration of the military commanders." "It was so realistic; the end result was it helped reach the objectives of gaming completely," he said.

In a dark room at the war gaming center, combat situations are plotted oi a large movie screen using 48 projectors along with hand drawings and paste-on cutouts. A computer tallies the damages and determines the weapons strengths, courses and speeds of ships and aircraft involved. The huge movie screen also is used for re-enactments of famous naval battles of history. Actual films are spliced into the presentation on a small side screen. Sound effects and flashing lights depict volleys and direct hits The games include combat situations ranging from a single aircraft against a submarine to a major conflict between nations involving decisions by fleet commands, and the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

The center is developing a digital computer system to let many more high-speed combatants take part at once to add more realism to the exercises, Prem 3 CONVENIENT LOCATIONS WE HONOR FOOD STAMPS CHEF BOY-AR-DEE Beef-A-Roni NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR TYPOGRAPHICAL ERRORS (SINGLE ROLL) Introductory Sale Hang Paper The Easy Way.
