THI SUN March 2 1979 A-6- 'Boulevard Nights' is hit in and out of theater GOP leader raps Brown i I Although the studio disclaims responsibility for violence, Warner Bros, has agreed to pick up the tab for theaters to hire armed guards to protect moviegoers. In addition, the studio did not resist when theater managers in San Francisco and Montclair, a Los Angeles suburb, canceled their contracts for the film. The most serious violence oc-cured in San Francisco, where a clash between Mexican-American and Chinese gangs left four persons shot and one stabbed on Saturday. In Southern California, one youth was shot and two were stabbed at a Montclair drive-in on the film's opening night, and two youths were stabbed at a San Juan Capistrano drive-in in what police said was a clash between two rival gangs. asked that a theater in that city stop showing "Boulevard Nights." She also is seeking legal means to halt screenings of all films that could incite gang violence.

Warner Bros. Studios, "extraordinarily happy" at the box office success of "Boulevard Nights," disclaims any blame for the violence but it is helping theaters hire armed guards. The movie, about Mexican-American gangs in East Los Angeles, opened Friday at 103 theaters in California, the Southwest and New York City. In its first three days, it earned $832,384, said Warner Bros, spokesman Bill Stern. "We are extraordinarily happy," Stern said.

"The film earned approximately $6,500 per day at each theater, which in the industry is considered extremely strong." LOS ANGELES (AP) "Boulevard Nights," another movie about brutal street gangs, has been blamed for violence that has left 10 persons injured in shootings and stabbings and forced theaters to hire armed guards to protect their patrons. Though a box office hit, it also has sent some theater managers scurrying to lawyers to cancel contracts for the film. It all sounds like a rerun of the events surrounding the showing of another film of the same genre, "The Warriors," which allegedly incited two gang-related shootings that resulted in at least two deaths a few weeks back. And a third street gang film, "Walk Proud," will be released in May. The mayor of San Francisco, Dianne Feinstein, has personally SACRAMENTO (AP) The Senate's Republican leader said Tuesday that Gov.

Edmund Brown comments about a possible conspiracy to embarrass him prove he is suffering from "pre-primary paranoia." Sen. William Campbell said Brown's speculation last week about a conspiracy involving President Carter was similar to attacks by former Vice President Spiro Agnew on the news media and so-called liberal establishment. "I have been watching Jerry Brown for the last five years and I don't think I have ever seen him lose his cool as he has done in the last couple of weeks," the Hacienda Heights Republican said. "Now we have a peripatetic potential president suffering from pre-primary paranoia." Brown's chief of staff, Gray Davis, said Campbell "turns an interesting phrase but it bears no relationship to reality." Brown, who says he close to challenging Carter In next year's Democratic primaries, said last Friday he "wouldn't discount" the possibility William Campbell Carter was involved in a conspiracy to embarrass him. Earlier, Assembly Republican Leader Paul Priolo made similar remarks.

Girl accused of S.D. school shootings faces adult trial death in the school parking lot. Also wounded was Robert Robb, a 28-year-old San Diego police officer. Municipal Court Judge Robert Cooney ordered Miss Spencer to appear April 10 for arraignment in Superior Court. But Cooney refused to bind the girl over on additional charges of assault with a deadly weapon, noting the attempted murder charges include assault.

SAN DIEGO (AP) Sixteen-year-old Brenda Spencer was bound over for trial as an adult in. Superior Court on two counts of murder and nine of attempted murder after a closed preliminary hearing Tuesday into a fatal elementary school sniper attack. Eight Cleveland Elementary School students wounded by gunfire in the Jan. 29 attack testified about how their principal and custodian were shot to Reporters were keep out, at the request of the tiny defendant's attorney. The California Supreme Court was asked by Michael McGlinn, the girl's lawyer, to overrule a lower court decision ordering her bound over for trial as an adult.

McGlinn objected to holding the preliminary hearing before getting word from the high court but agreed to proceed. All the witnesses, including police officers who arrested the Spencer girl after the six-hour shooting spree Jan. 29, were subpoenaed by the prosecution, and told what they saw that day. No defense witnesses or rebuttal is allowed under California law at a preliminary hearing. Among more than a dozen witnesses testifying were two newspaper reporters who had a telephone conversation during the incident with a young girl who claimed to be the sniper.

Cooney admonished the witnesses, including San Diego Evening Tribune reporters Steve Wiegand and Gus Stevens, to keep silent about their testimony. Wiegand and Stevens wrote of talking with the sniper, who told them she was shooting people because "Mondays are dull." Among the third- and fourth-grade students who testified was Christy Buell, 9, whose abdomen wound still keeps her out of school except for two hours of special tutoring daily. Newton calls new trial Vengeance' Newton, who voluntarily returned to the United States in 1977, said he was refusing to name people who had helped him flee because authorities would harass them. The judge ordered a hearing April 17 to hear defense motions that the charges against Newton be dropped, and he tentatively scheduled a new trial for May 7. Newton, 37, is accused of shooting Kathleen Smith, a 17-year-old prostitute, on an Oakland street on Aug.

"Now, it is a case of vengeance." In a separate courtroom Tuesday, Superior Court Judge Carl Anderson, who presided at the trial, sentenced Newton to five days in jail for refusing to answer questions about his flight to Cuba in 1974. Newton's lawyers said they would appeal before the sentence takes effect Monday.

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) Black Panther leader Huey Newton said Tuesday a decision to try him a second time on a murder charge is "a case of vengeance." But the prosecuting attorney expressed confidence another jury would convict Newton. The first trial ended in a mistrial Saturday, with jurors unable to break a 10-2 vote for acquittal. Newton said he was not surprised when deputy District Attorney Tom Orlof asked Superior Court Judge John Cooper to schedule another trial. "Mr.
