(Continued From City Page) making styrofoam facsmiles of the circus animals and clowns. One enterprising youngster abandoned the circus theme and created a styrofoam Batman, with "Robin in his stomach," he explained. Another program under way at the Colton center is teaching the children how to properly brush their teeth. "Some of the children want to keep spreading several layers of toothpaste all along the brush," observed one instructor. The children are instructed to brush their teeth after lunch.

They are also given a star for finishing their lunch, said one teacher. Youths Instructors for the program are also drawn from the poverty stricken areas. All instructors said they noticed improvement in the children's general outlook and attitude in the first month of classes. They were skeptical at first about being accepted by the children, but their worry soon he subsided. As one youngster put it, "They're just as crazy as we are." Instructors said they do not try only to supervise.

They make a point of getting into the children's games and gaining acceptance by association. One of the highlights of the program for the youngsters is swimming instruction offered by Perris Hill Plunge and the Colton Plunge. Two of the summer enrichment programs are in San Bernardino, one each in Colton, North Fontana and Barstow. The classes and a week in camp for about 50 youngsters are made possible through a $71,000 OE0 grant. Buildings in which classes are held are donated for the use of the Dependency Prevention Commission which operates the program.

"This is the kind of work in which we won't know how good a job we are doing until years from now, when the children are grown commented Meadows. "We can only hope we point them in the right direction." Police Release Boyfriend of Murder Victim A Colton man, held by San Bernardino police for investigation in the murder of his girl friend on July 24, was to be released yesterday without charges being filed. James Duke, of 1351 Bordwell was arrested when police found discrepancies in his story during routine questioning about the death of Dorothy T. Thomas, 24, of 1585 Lugo Ave. Mrs.

Thomas, a divorcee, was found on the kitchen floor of the apartment she had moved into the night she was slain. She had been stabbed 16 times. The woman, police said, returned from South Vietnam a month prior to her death. She had dated Duke frequently during the weeks before she was killed, police said. Duke told officers that he was to help the victim move her belongings into the apartment but she wasn't home when he came to see her.

An autopsy set the time of death at about 7 or 8 p.m. the night before her body was discovered. Duke was seen leaving the apartment house at about 8:15 p.m., police said. Acre Addition To S.B. High School Studied by Board The Board of Trustees of the San Bernardino City Unified School District has directed further study of plans for a 331 acre addition to San Bernardino High School.

The addition would cost the district $900,000. Plans include the construction of a main two-story classroom building located with blank wall facing Street on the present campuses east side. The enlarged campus would stretch west to Street from 20th to the alley between 16th and 17th streets. The irregularly shaped campus plan features a setback along Street except where the present east campus boundary is located. S.B.

Man, Two Others Booked In Bomb Probe A San Bernardino man was one of three persons arrested in Riverside yesterday on felony conspiracy charges stemming from a fire bomb incident in that city last Monday night. James Matthews, 26, was arraigned in Municipal Court along with Garrick Tatum, 19, and Charles Wardford, 18, both of Riverside, on warrants charging conspiracy to commit arson. A fourth person, an unidentified juvenile, was being sought last night by Riverside police in connection with the case. Matthews, Tatum and Wardford were accused of planning and throwing three fire bombs at a distributing company warehouse. Two of the bombs failed to explode, but the third broke started a fire which caused minor damage.

Bail for three was set at $8,250. Four-Year Term for Mayor? (Continued From City Page) would not make the same recommendation "for a long time." His own success as an aggressive head of the city has given little credence to his argument that a mayor cannot do an effective job in two years if he must take time from his duties to run a campaign after two years in office. And, as for salaries, Ballard told the committee he would work to see that the next mayor and council get raises. In addition to the question of length of office and the elimination of salary provisions, the committee has proposed a switch in election dates so that new council members are not faced with the task of budget preparation two months after they take office. For the mayor, inauguration would be in December instead of May after an election in November instead of April.

Four-year terms of councilmen would be staggered so that elections in the 3rd, 5th, 6th and 7th wards would be in November, and elections in the 1st, 2nd, and 4th wards, two years later. The revised charter would require the council to appoint a new mayor within 30 days and immediately call an election if the mayor's post is vacated for any reason. The present charter requires only that the vacated office be filled by a majority vote of the council, allowing the appointee to serve for the unexpired term. Vacancies on the council would be filled by the mayor with approval of the council until a special election is called not less than 45 days after a vacancy occurs. An election would be called provided the vacancy occurs more than 60 days Wine Appreciation Offered This Fall At UC Conference How wines are grown, aged, kept, served and judged will be outlined this September at two University of California Extension wine appreciation conferences.

Fee for each of the two-day conferences is $75 and includes lodging, meals and conference materials.

Dud Fire Bombs Thrown at House Two fire bombs were hurled at a Delman Heights residence late Thursday night and on one occasion the home. owner scared off the culprits by firing his shotgun, police reported.

The first bomb was thrown about 10:15 p.m. It landed on the roof but didnot explode into flames. The owner fired one blast from his shotgun into the lawn. An hour later, another bomb was thrown from a passing car, but it landed harmlessly on the lawn. San Bernardino police said the incidents at the home were the only activ-1 ity of an otherwise quiet night in San Bernardino.

Former Fontana Man Killed in Iowa Crash former Fontana man was among persons killed Thursday night in car collision 10 miles west of Iowa, on IT.S. 30.

Police Seeking Man Who Took Bus Cash Box Police are searching for a male suspect, involved in the theft of a cash box from a San Bernardino Municipal Transit bus. The bus driver, Larry Lambert of 2570 Maple San Bernardino, reported to officers that he had stopped the bus, and gotten out to stretch his legs at the corner of Base Line and Muscott Street, when he saw an unidentified man enter the bus, and remove the cash box, containing about $48, from underneath the drivers seat.

Lambert said that he then gave chase, until he lost the man in the vicinity of 9th and Wilson Sts. RENT WITH OPTION TO BUY Organs Pianos Band Instruments from $5 1168 St. Praviroffz TU Free Parking Piano ana 9-8596 Saturday, Aug. 5, THE E5 Reduction in Dr. Holder's Bail Asked; Judge Will Study Request before an election at which the councilman normally would be elected.

The present charter requires that council vacancies be filled by the mayor and council and that the appointee hold office until May following the next general election. The office then would be open to any candidate in the ward whose election would place him in office for the remainder of the unexpired term. A legislative change that became necessary when the 6th and 7th wards were added is the number of votes necessary to pass orders, resolutions and ordinances. Measures are passed with four votes (and the mayor's unspoken approval) unless mayor vetoes the vote. The council then needs five votes to override the veto.

The revised charter calls for publishing ordinances only once. The present charter requires publication on three consecutive days. Required in the charter revision is a "state of the city" message to the council by the mayor on or before Jan. 15 of each year. The council would be required to adopt rules its own proceedings.

present charter only provides that power but does not make rule adoption mandatory. A committee spokesman said the rule adoption would eliminate much "wrangling" during council meetings. A draft of the new charter was given to the council on June 12 and was the subject of a public meeting on June 22 when the council agreed to study the document. It will be considered again on Aug. 14.

The committee is seeking suggestions for changes so the charter can be put in legal order for an election. The District Attorney's office claimed in court yesterday thatthree additional charges of felony abortion against San Bernardino physician Dr. Henry Holder have been The announcement came while Dr. Holder's attorney was motioning for reduction of the $38,500 bail which his client is currently free on while awaiting trial on a charge of second degree murder and five counts of abortion. Superior Court Judge Henry M.

Busch heard the arguments for bail and then took the request under submission. The District Attorney's office opposed any slashing of bail. Chief Trial Deputy Dist. Atty. Kenneth L.

Pike said, "Three more corroborated abortions will face this doctor either as formal charges or as evidenciary material at his trial." C. Patrick Milligan, Dr. Holder's lawyer, contended that a $10,000 reduction in the bail to $28,500 would enable him to provide a more meaningful defense for his client. "The prosecution has unlimited resources and they have committed hundreds of manhours in the preparation of this case. We cannot compete unless we have additional 19 Milligan said.

In posting bail, Dr. Holder put up 500 of his own money and obtained a $10,000 corporate surety bond to finance the entire bail. In other arguments, Milligan said 600 residents of San Bernardino had signed a petition expressing their confidence that "Dr. Holder will meet all his commitments in court." Dr. Holder filed a motion to dismiss charges against him made in a Grand Jury indictment in June.

A ruling on the motion is expected on Aug. 23. The prominent physician and member of the San Bernardino City Planning Commission was indicted 29 days after Sandra LeAnn Sty, 19, of Fullerton, died of the effects of an abortion she said was performed in San Bernardino on May 20. Car Carrying Ballard, 2 Aides Hit our- Telegram photo PROFESSOR KITANO discusses Hippies Hippies (Continued From City Page) cide, mental illness and other social problems. It also may explain the "drop-outs." Kitano noted the hippies say they have dropped out because they saw the "phoniness of the They say, "You people have conquered a lot of the problems of space and electronics but you have not explored adequately the phychological aspects of man, the inner workings of man." So they emphasize "psychological man rather than economical man.

"But are they out because they have seen the 'phoniness of the system' or because they couldn't achieve within the system?" Kitano asked. He noted that many hippies are intelligent and educated persons, but they may not have been able to live up to their expectations or the expectations of their peers. "If a person dropped out because he couldn't achieve within the system, he may use the 'phoniness of the system' as an ego-saving rationalization," Kitano pointed out. He believes this is what the hippies may be doing, thus they have become critics of the traditional system. Should the system be changed? "This is 1 a major social-psychological problem, Kitano said.

He agreed there is a basis for criticism, and the older generation has assumed the role of apologists or defenders of the system. Making changes are not easy, he noted. "It is a problem of changing attitudes and everyone seems to see a different solution to it," he said. The political scientist has one answer; the hippie has another. Others also offer their solutions.

Housewife Killed When Horse Falls A 26 year old Chino housewife died yesterday in San Antonio Community Hospital, Upland, of injuries suffered when the horse she was riding reared and fell on her Tuesday. Paula D. McFadden, of 11966 Pipe Line suffered head and back injuries while riding her horse in a field near her home, according to Deputy Coroner Billy Hill.
