CENTRAL ILLINOIS EDITION THE PANTAGRAPH, FRIDAY, AUG. 28, 1981 A3 Guatney to stay in mental unit 1 XF-1-345 Prosecutor Ronald Lahners that claimed Guatney was unable to care for his own basic human needs, including food, clothing, shelter and medical attention. Keefe said Gautney may be taken out of the maximum-security area and placed in an area for less dangerous patients. The mental health board also will decide within 30 days whether Guatney should be moved to a Veterans' Administration hospital. Keefe said he would like to see Guatney placed at the VA Hospital in Leavenworth, Kan.

A trial on first-degree murder charges against Guatney is scheduled to begin Sept. 14. But Keefe said he expects the charges to be dropped. Lahners had said he would consider dropping the charges if Guatney were committed to a mental hospital. As of Thursday evening, the charges had not been dropped.

Guatney is a suspect in nine murders in addition to the two in Lincoln. He has been mentioned as a suspect in the murders of a Blooming-ton youth, Marty Lancaster, 14, of 1503 N. Roosevelt and Mark Helmig, 9, Pekin. Guatney was never charged in the 1978 Lancaster or the 1976 Helmig murders. Evidence obtained and statements taken from Guatney were strong enough to halt the investigations, but not enough to charge him.

Guatney was arrested Aug. 18, 1979, at the Illinois State Fair in Springfield. He was charged with the deaths of Jacob Surber, 12, and Jon Simpson, 13, both of Lincoln, Neb. Guatney also was charged with the murder of a boy in Topeka, but that charge was dropped when evidence showed Guatney was in a hospital at the time of the murder. He also is a suspect in the murders of an 11-year-old boy in Omaha, a girl in Hutchinson, a boy in Rock Island and three boys in Chandler, Ariz.

No charges have been filed in those slayings.

The Twister toys with rural Carlock homes and the walkway to a diving platform was ripped loose. Trees and grass had a matted look.

Elsewhere there was a report of a funnel cloud aloft about four miles southeast of Lexington and another in the Manito area, but no touchdowns were reported. Scattered rain was reported throughout Central Illinois, with the 2 inches north of Carlock among the heaviest, said J. A. "Al" Thomas, McLean County Emergency Services and Disaster Agency director. Rain fell at Sunset Lake too, but that was the least of Vogel's worries.

"We're lucky we can joke about it," he said. He arrived home from work just minutes after the tornado touched down at 5:25 p.m. He thinks it traveled in a northeasterly direction. His son Tom, 13 and neighbor Brian Schieber, 17, saw it. "The water (on the lake) was being sucked up and funneled around," said Tom.

"Sections of water were rising in the air and spinning like a rope of water," Schieber said. Schieber told his father what he was seeing, but said his father was half-asleep on the couch and replied, "That's good." As far as Vogel is concerned it was half-good. Nobody was hurt and there was only minor, undetermined damage. Growing up on a farm at Cissna Park, he saw tornadoes that caused extensive damage. "This was too close for comfort," he said.

i TUT THE SAVING PLACE By EMILIE KREBS Pantograph staff William Guatney, 59, charged in the 1975 murders of two Lincoln, boys, was ordered Thursday to remain at Lincoln Regional Center because he is unable to provide for his basic needs. The three-member Lancaster County Mental Health Board ordered that Gautney be committed to the same institution where he has been in maximum security since November 1979, Lancaster County Public Defender Dennis Keefe said. Gautney, mentioned as a suspect in the deaths of two Central Illinois youths, was committed based on a petition filed by Lancaster County Inmates find flood debris LINCOLN (PNS) Lincoln residents may think Brainard's Branch floods because of heavy rain, but eight Logan Correctional Center inmates think they may have found the real answer. "I think it was the two bicycles and four shopping carts I pulled from this branch," said one of the men who began clearing undergrowth and debris from the branch early Thursday. Another inmate said, "It could have been that roll-away bed I fished out." Yet another mused that a utility shed "ain't helping the flow of water any, either." A tongue-in-cheek theory was offered by a man who had just helped to haul out a large sink: "I think it was everything, including this-here kitchen sink." The project is expected to continue for two weeks, depending on weather conditions and correctional center schedules.

PROMOTER From Al to receive them. According to the Illinois attorney general's office letter, the contract is illegal because it calls for profits from the show and ad booklets to be split 50-50 between the union and Country Time Music. Under state law, professional fund-raising organizations are to receive no more than 25 percent of the profits from a campaign aimed at raising money for charity. Law also requires those fundraisers to register with the attorney general's office before they can operate in the state. Country Time Music did not register, according to the Springfield office.

Emery and a Twin City businessman said money from the fund-raising campaign was to be used for charity. Emery said the money raised is used for donation to area youth sport organizations and to make contributions to area telethons and other charities. William Sopper of Baumgard-Sop-per Meyer Century 21 Real Estate said he was among the businessmen contacted by Country Time Music solicitors to buy an ad. "The phrasing used was that the money was going to 'keep kids off the There was definitely a connotation that the money was for charity," Sopper said. James L.

Kappel, Illinois assistant attorney general in the charitable trust division, said Country Time PROTECTION From Al If an investigation proves the threats occurred, McEvers said, Jenkins will be moved to another prison to finish serving his time. He also said inmates making threats would be transferred to a maximum security prison. Jenkins was given 90 days merito-us good time for helping Mrs. Hin-man, McEvers said. The 90 days will be taken off his sentence, allowing him to be released early.

In an affidavit signed by Jenkins, he said he helped the woman guard by pulling the attacker off her. However, McEvers said Jenkins did not leave his locked cell when the attack occurred, but Instead yelled at the Inmate, frightening him and causing him to leave.

"This is really just a bad case of vandalism," the Sunset Lake resident said while surveying damage done by a tornado that touched down in the subdivision in rural Carlock late Thursday afternoon.

The twister passed within 50 feet of Vogel's house, but did little damage. A storage shed was blown about 10 feet, a boat was blown off a dock the Minnesota attorney general, said the suit charges Country Time Music took about 80 cents of every dollar raised in the two years. That would violate Minnesota, law which states fund-raisers should not receive more than 30 percent of the profit, Blanke said. According lo the suit, which has not come to trial. Country Time Music is owned by William Claffey, Waterbury, Conn.

The printing company used by Country Time in both Minnesota and Bloomington is owned by Claffey's brother, Thomas Claffey. The suit also charges that Thomas Claffey, who occasionally works for Country Time, arranged for the performers at the Minnesota event. He billed the White Bear Lake Police Association about $3,000 and paid the performers less than that, the suit charges. Blanke said Thomas Claffey told the Minnesota attorney general's office he earned the money by arranging for performers to appear. The police association was unaware of the connection between Country Time and the printing company and unaware that part of the money for performers was paid to Claffey, the suit charges.

Emery said he also was unaware of the connection between the printing company and Country Time. The Minnesota suit asks that Country Time repay about $40,000 to the police association out of an estimated gross total of more than $60,000 for the two years. Emery said he will contact the Illinois attorney general's office next week. cellmate." McEvers said Jenkins' cellmate was upset that he did not get recognition for helping Mrs. Hinman, although the warden said the cellmate was not responsible for thwarting the attack.

McEvers said Jenkins changed his story later and admitted fighting with his cellmate. Jenkins was placed in segregation for fighting, McEvers said, but was returned to general population the next day. McEvers said officials determined Jenkins did not start the fight. Since that time, McEvers said, he has not received complaints from Jenkins about being threatened. Jenkins said in his letter that he told three officers at the prison that he was scared to go to dinner or to yard activities because of the threats.

McEvers said no one reported the complaints to him. wi! mi mi may be in violation of the law because it did not register and the contract called for the company to receive more money than state laws allow. If an investigation confirms that, Kappel said, the company could be ordered to document all money it received and all money it paid out to determine whether the union received it legal the share of profits. According to financial reports Emery received from company representatives, the firm raised more than $24,276 between July 3 and Aug. 22.

That, however, is not a final financial report. Emery said the company refused to give him the final report after the Sunday concert because Emery refused to sign a check to cover the $1,700 cost of printing the ad booklets. Emery said he refused because the booklets were not ready for distribution at the concert. A partial list of expenses for the concert included: Promotion fees of $9,705. Computer services, including a survey analysis of potential sales areas, of $1,265.

The same company that did the computer services was to receive the $1,700 for printing the ad booklets. Miss Jae received $3,550 for the 50-minute performance. In the Minnesota suit, the attorney general's office brought action against the company in 1979, after fund-raisers for two consecutive years for the White Bear Lake Police Association, located in a St. Paul suburb. Doug Blanke, special assistant to McEvers said, but was not seriously injured.

The next day, Jenkins said in the affidavit, he was attacked by five inmates who coerced him into a washroom. He said he received two black eyes and his "body reaks with pain." When questioned later about his Injuries, Jenkins said he told a guard about the attack. McEvers said he was called to the prison by the captain after Jenkins told officials about the beating. "I was concerned that there might be some retaliation by inmates," McEvers said. But after about IVt hours of interviews with Jenkins and other inmates, McEvers said, authorities were convinced the beating did not happen the way Jenkins told the story.
