THE SUN B.J Nexl Time He'll Pay Fine ir Monday, Sept 14, If 70 It's just because basically J'm an easy going person that it came as a shock to me to be told you were goinj to go to jail," he said. "I tried to laugh it off to myseif 11a, ha, ha it saved me $43." "liut I won't go to court again. I'll pay the fine next time. "The damage, as far as I'm concerned, can't l)e undone. If anything can be done it will be to keep it from happening to somebody else.

"It just seemed to me at the time that it was pretty stiff. My mother asked, what did I say to the judge when he told me I was going to jail? "All I could say was, What can you say to a judge?" (Continued From Metro Page) I didn't get out on time. Finally I reminded a sergeant, i think I was suji-posed to get out at 7 and he let me out. "The officers said, 'The county owed you an hour and a That's wlu-n they told me I had to spend the next day at Glen Helen." the problem was the same at Glen Helen overcrowding. Nevertheless, the situation was reversed.

Rrinsrhniidt spent his 24 hour stint in a "maximum security" cell, all alone. "As a whole," he said, "It was a better experience. It was cleaner. They made you take a shower, and they checked your scalp and feet. You wore their clothes." The cells were not elaborate.

"Three walls and a wall of bars," said Reinschmidt. "There was a bed, a sink, a table and a toilet, all fastened to the floor. There was nothing you could do anything with except the mattress and the bedclothes. "It was considerably cleaner, but there 3.500 Watch Sun-Tlgrim photo by Tom Owtns Tired CiTS ITcr; From Ticir Phantom after a fast ride high over the High Desert COL. nOBEKT EKLUND part of the team in Training World's Best Fishier Pilots (Continued From Metro Page) oriented events because "I'm sort of a wetback myself." Shortly afterward, when it was announced that the MA PA float had won a sweepstakes award, Abe Tapia, statewide president of the organization, came to the microphone, and referriig to the "wetback" remark, said, "We reject trophies to an Anglo run and dominated type of parade.

It is an insult to the Mexicaan community in the way they've promoted it." Speaking in Spanish, Tapia urged other award winners to return their trophies also. He vigorously denounced the program because the clown had been allowed, unchallenged, to make the remark. was absolutely nothing to do. Once in a while you could see a guard walk by in a corridor separated from the cells by another corridor for the prisoners. The doors were operated automatically by an electric switchboard at the end of the row of cells.

"There was no reading material. The radio played a while, but then it was shut off. I slept as much as I could, and when I couldn't I tried singing in Latin." A theater arts major at Chaffey College, Reinschmidt has also studied singing. He is a member of his church (Continued From Metro Page) descriptions to take hold of the controls Of the F4. I- Most admit they are forever looking onward and upward, maneuvering to get 'into the cockpit of the most sophisticated aircraft in the Air Force 'Owentory.

Perhaps now it is the F4. In a short while, it could be the Flo, now just off the drawing board. CATS fall into three categories at George back-seat pilots, front-seat pilots and back-seat navigators. The back-seat pilots slowly are being phased tactical bomber, an air defense interceptor and a reconnaissance aircraft," D'Amico explained. "But if you put the F4 up against other Air Force aircraft designed specifically for each one of those missions, the F4 probably would come out second best.

Daily, FIs fill the skies above the High Desert. They fly formations over the High Sierra. They drop their practice bombs on a simulated Vietnam landscape on Leach (dry) Lake. Why George Air Force Base for pilot training? D'Amico, a Vietnam veteran, explained. "George has probably the best flying weather in the country.

It's perfect 3G0 days a year and then the pilots go to the worst flying weather in the world Vietnam." of a full colonel on his shoulders. He boasts 27 years as an Air Force flyer in everything from Mustangs to a variety of prop and jet driven trainers. Col. Eklund gave up a vice wing commander's job with the F105 to come to George. At 45, he is one of the oldest CATS in F4 training.

"Why?" Eklund said. "What is the military in peace time but a training establishment. You train for war. That's the name of the game Eklund said he is not concerned that his next assignment might be in Vietnam. He said he volunteered to go four years ago.

"A surgeon likes to operate. That's what he's trained to do. I feel the same about going to Southeast Asia. I've had 27 years of training for just such an assignment." Asked how he felt about training under instructors below his rank, Eklund, a former F105 instructor himself said: "It doesn't bother me. If someone has something to give you, you'd be unwise to take it no matter what rank is talking." Both Eklund and D'Amico have strong feelings about the F4.

Both agreed that the Phantom has been given too many jobs to do. Thus, it docs all jobs well, but is superior in few. "The F4 assumes the roles of a Kelly said he got his chance to join the Replacement Training Unit when his B58 wing was phased out. He said he was happy with his new assignment which should offer him more chance to travel. First Lt.

Stormy Boudreaux came to the F4 program directly from flight training at Vance AFB, Okla. Graduating fifth in a class of 65, Boudreaux just about had his pick of assignments. "They weren't offering F4 front-seat pilot assignments directly out of flight school, but I took the back-seater job with hopes that some day I can move to the front," Boudreaux explained. "I'll be at least qualified in the F4. It should make the transition to the front seat easier." Capt.

Jim Null, of Oklahoma City, is taking his second tour as a CAT. This time he's learning to be a front-seater. "I was stationed at Homestead AFB, Fla. with the 68th Tactical Figh'er Squadron," Null said. "I like the F4.

I've logged more than 500 hours flying time without once experiencing a condition I'd label as an emergency." Kelly, Boudreaux and Null. Younj hotshots just beginning their Air Force flying careers. Another CAT is a different breed. Robert G. Eklund wears the eagles out of the F4, according to Col.

Donald D'Amico, assistant director of Wing operations at George. "Probably 60 to 70 per cent of the back-seaters are now navigators," D'Amico said. "They have more responsibility than just navigating. They must operate the radar systems needed to fire the weapons. For Maj.

Pat Kelly, an 11-year veteran of SAC's B52 and B58 fleet, the F4 gives him a startling advantage over most of his previous assignments. Kelly can now see outside the aircraft. His view could be better, but the back-seater in an F4 has his own personal canopy over his head. "I wanted to do something different. A high performance aircraft sounded like a challenge," the navigator from Florida declared.

Tapia was followed by Romo and two young men wearing Brown Beret uniforms. All of them condemned the remark as insulting and said that the time has come for persons of Mexican descent to assert themselves against such incidents and seek the justice and liberty to which they are entitled. Fiesta organizers took the situation in stride. Alfredo Enciso, president of the Mexican Chamber of Commerce, quietly packed the unclaimed trophies in a box and took them to his ca, He remarked later, "They were letting off their steam. The less said about it, the better." Morales said of the incident, "Of course, there's a lot of friction these days.

These people hate being called That's what they're fighting against." Hector I.unda, president of MAFA's San Bernardino chapter, said "We returned the trophy because of the offensive nature of the program to the Mexican people." Despite the abrupt end of the award ceremonies, most of the audience seemed unperturbed, finding amusement among the carnival attractions or seeking shaded seals from which to view the entertainment scheduled for the later afternoon and evening. choir and has also performed in Tom Sawyer and other Junior University productions. Did the other inmates complain about his singing? "I sang quietly," Reinschmidt said. He was released at 7 the following night. "It was really a shock to someone who hasn't encountered something like that," he said.

Judge Krumm is on vacation and could not be contacted for his reasons for jail sentence. Reinschmidt, however, said he realizes the judge may have believed the sentence would be a good object lesson. Ontario Man Dies In Cycle Accident Ralph Valles, 27, of 815 Hope Ontario, died yesterday after receiving multiple injuries in a motorcycle accident, Deputy Coroner Bill Hill said. California Highway Patrol officers reported Valles and a friend were riding their motorcycles in an area north of Foothill Boulevard and west of East Avenue when the victim's vehicle went out of control, and lie crashed into a large eucalyptus tree.
