2-A Burlington (N.C.) Times-News, Wednesday, January 5,1972 Couple Sought In Shooting CHESTER, Pa. (AP) Police searched an oil tank farm today for a man and a woman who allegedly killed one Delaw a state trooper and wounded another after two motel holdups. More than 300 officers, a number of helicopters and police dogs were used in the search of the 175-acre British Petroleum tank farm in a heavily wooded section of southeastern Pennsylvania. State Police said they believed the couple was surrounded within the farm, after a 90-mile-an-hour chase during which more than two dozen shots were fired. The two Delaware troopers had chased the pair following two motel holdups two miles apart, one in Delaware and one in Pennsylvania.

The troopers were gunned down at the Concord Motel following the second holdup. The dead trooper was identified as Ronald Carey, 29 of Holiday Hills, Wilmington, Del. His partner, David C. Yarrington, 24, of Wilmington was hospitalized in critical condition. Police said they followed tracks in the mud outside the tank farm to a barbed wire fence, where they found a woman's purse.

Bits of torn clothing were on the barbed wire. SURVIVOR (Continued From Page 1-A) the jungle. She remembered looking out the window and seeing an engine afire, then the airliner lurched and she suddenly found herself flying through the air. The next thing the girl remembered, the nurse said, was waking up amid the wreckage, still strapped to her seat and covered by the bodies ol three or four other passengers. Freeing herself from the seat and bodies, the terrified girl ran from the scene, stopping only to pick up a Christmas cake which she had been bringing to her father.

Suffering from a number of cuts, the girl walked for several days following a stream, sometimes swimming across flooded areas and wading through swamps. The cake lasted three days. After that Juliane ate nothing, the nurse said. Finally she arrived at the Pachitea River, a tributary the Amazon. There the young survivor built a crude raft of logs tied together with vines and launched it into the current.

It was not immediately known how many days Juliane spent aboard the raft, but the woodcutters--Amado Pereyra and Marcio Ribera reported that she was scarcely able to identify herself when she reached their camp Monday. 7 Out Of 10 Insured NEW YORK Nearly 140 million individual policyholders, or almost seven out of 10 people in the country, were unsured with life insurance companies at the start of 1971. MUSKIE (Continued From Page 1-A) pay for a race that already has cost well over $1 million. It is a campaign that has taken Muskie to 34 states since Labor Day as an unannounced contender. Muskie has gained endorsements from some key party leaders, but his candidacy will face its crucial test in the pri mary elections ahead.

After a news conference today in Washington and a fundraising dinner in New York tonight, he heads for New Hampshire to file cadidacy for a March 7 leadoff primary in his native New England. MORE In New Hampshire Tuesday, former Massachusetts Gov. Endicott Peabody made known his aspirations by filing petitions for the Democratic nomination for vice president. "It is constitutionally the sec ond most importat post in the land, Peabody said. "The vice president should be selected by the people (not) in a back smoke-filled room." Rep.

Paul McCloskey continued his campaign through the state, talking to high schoolers in Franklin, N.H., where he told on student he would welcome Sen. Edward Brooke, R- on a national ticket as either vice president or president. Responding to a question as to whether he'd run with a minority candidate, McCloskey said "I would be proud to have Ed Brooke as my running mate or to be his running mate if he should challenge President Nixon." Meanwhile, Ohio Sen. Robert Taft announced in Columbus his withdrawal as a favorite son in the spate's primary in May. President's indication on television, and other current i a information, now makes it clear that Mr.

Nixon will allow his name to appear on the Ohio ballot as a pledged candidate for the presidential nomination," Taft said. In Florida, where the primary will be held March 14, Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey's spokesman said the former vice president will file for candidacy next Monday. Fellow Democratic hopeful Sen.

Henry M. Jackson stumped across northern Florida saying a vote for Alabama Gov. George Wallace would amount to a vote for Nixon. The area went heavily for Wallace in 1968. Wallace is not announced for the Florida campaign, but Jackson said he was sure Wallace would be running and he told newsmen in Tallahassee, at the start of a three-day swing toward Pensacola, voters would be "wasting" their ballots on a vote for Wallace.

And, back in New Hampshire, there appeared the face of comedian Pat Paulsen in Manchester announce a serious candidacy this presidential year. In 1968. Paulsen ran a nngue-in-cheek campaign that drew too few votes to be recorded officially. The 44-year-old comedian said he would get petitions signed in the streets before the Thursday deadline "The fact that a comedian is Your World of Ideas When You Think of Calendars No. 19 Page Size No.

During the nine-month period from Feb. 1 through Oct. 31, 1971, 384 patients, ranging from eight weeks to 69 years of age, were treated on an ambulatory basis at the special surgical unit, which established in existing but formerly under utilized facilities on the ground floor of Watts Hospital. Twenty-six of a possible 41 staff surgeons 63 per cent operated on patients using the unit during the study period. The choice of outpatient care rather than hospital admission was made by the physician who based his decision on whether the patient was surgically and psychologically qualified for such care.

The a i population was willing to accept Are in the manner deemed appropriate by the surgeon. Within 10 different specialities, 43 different types of operative procedures were performed. Of the 364 patients treated at the Ambulatory Surgical Unit through Oct. 31, only three complications were identified -one technical, and two emotional. The greatest benefits for the remaining 361 patients have appeared to be psychological and monetary.

According to the study, most patients enjoyed being able to spend almost all of the pre-and post-operative period at home, and th majority benefited directly from dollar savings incurred from the outpatient treatment. All of the participating surgeons noted the time savings and expressed confidence that outpatient care at the unit allowed the same quality of care as delivered to inpatients with greater comfort and less cost to both the patient and the hospital. The physicians have urged continuing the the unit's operation and have pledgee their continuing support. For its part in the study. North Carolina Blue Cross and Blue Shield agreed to pay usual allowances for operating room, recovery room, anesthesia laboratory, and x-ray on the same basis as if admitted in accordance with the subscriber running for office is not so strange," Paulsen said.

certificate i i In addition, the corporation agreed provide special benefit allowances in lieu of room for ts subscribers who utilize this special service for the holding area accommodations a nursing care and post-operative nurse visit in the home. John Alexander McMahon, Blue Cress and Blue Shield president, praised the experiment and pledged his organization's continued cooperation. "The success of this innovative program is dramatic evidence of the savings can be realized in time and money for patients, physicians, providers and prepayment plans alike when they cooperate wholeheartedly for the mutual benefit of all." McMahon said he hoped to see the program established in other appropriate locations throughout the state and in other states. Other health insurers followed Blue Cross and Blue Shield lead and, as of Oct. 31, a total of 19 carriers including those for most of the large Industrie: in the area provided benefits for care received in this unit.

All favored the cost and time savings for their insureds. The Watts i a administration notes that operation of the Ambulatory Surgical Uni has significantly reducec the number of those waiting to be admitted to the hospital without leaving impatient beds unfilled. The hospial ig now able, therefore, to serve a large clientele. Dr Davis recommends the concept of an outpatient surgical un as worthy for consideration for implementation by other communities which can meei the established criteria for the pilot program. Summing up the results, he said, "To date, surgical care requiring genera anesthesia has been delivered en an ambulatory basis in a r.ospital setting in a satisfactory manner.

The quality of care delivered appears to be equal to that provided to the inpatient and in addition, a cost saving of 25 per cent of the hospital bill and a two day hospital stay has been accomplished." GARDNER (Continued From Page 1-A) he called the news conference to get publicity for his own possible gubernatorial campaign. Gardner said nixon had accomplished many tasks since becoming president. Asked why he was supporting Nixon now when he didn't support him earlier, he said the President has since proven that he deserves to be president. Women's and NOW STYLES Clearance Priced B.

McMillen. The Charlotte Mecklenburg case, which figured in last year's landmark decision by the U.S.

Supreme Court on school busing, was up on a peal from an order of McMillen directing the board to make further adjustments in a school desegregation plan. McMillen sought to eliminate predominantly Negro schools in the Charlotte Mecklenburg district and have the schools reflect the area's racial ratio of 79 per cent white and 21 per cent black. J. Le Von Chambers of Charlotte, counsel tor the black plaintiffs, said he felt the district court's amendment to the plan actually would reduce transportation and equipment expenses for the school board. He said the board's plan had resulted in under utilization of black schools and over utilization of crowded white schools.

Chambers also said schools were being, in effect resegre- gated in some areas because of board policies which permitted a return to freedom of choice. "We think the district court was constitutionally obligated to do what it did," Chambers told the appeals court. Waggoner said the school board had not been permitting freedom of choice but had allowed some students- to attend the schools they attended in the previous year or the new school to which they were assigned. He said this applied mainly to seniors who wished to graduate from the school they had been attending. He said also that school transfers were permitted when black facilities moved into new low-cost housing projects and children were allowed -to attend school in those areas rather than being bused to the other of the district.

It was learned subsequently that State and Defense were Cleared in that incident and the leak was traced to the National Security Council. In his columns Anderson has released some of the contents of notes taken of meetings involving Kissinger, high State Department officials and other important government officials. These indicated among other things that Kissinger described President Nixon as concerned the administration had not taken a hard-enough position against India's role in the war with Pakistan. The notes, according to Anderson, reported meetings in early December when the public administration policy was described by Kissinger as not being anti-India or pro-Pakistan.

"vice president and a business member of the board, has said all five business members want to trim the aerospace raise to about 8 per cent or less. Labor members seek approval of the full 12 per cent. The five public members of the board were reported by various sources to be opposed to the Ml 12-per-cent raise, but apparently could not agree on a figure.
