By Mitch Gelman A 13-year-old Brooklyn boy was arrested yesterday and charged with fatally shooting a dose friend his own age who had made fun of his clothes, police said. The victim, Kawaun Bethea, also 13, was found Thursday night shot once in the head in a stairwell at Cooper Park Housing Project in Green point, where he was staying with his grandfather. Eight vials of crack were found in the pocket of his gray parka, police said. Early yesterday, police arrested Dondre Hawthorne, of 340 Frost also in Greenpoint, and charged him as an adult with second-degree murder. Police, who said the youth made a statement, gave this account of the inddent: Kawaun and Dondre had gone out for a haircut Thursday evening but couldnt find a barbershop that was open.

So they returned to Cooper Park and Kawaun gave his grandfather $7 that he had borrowed for the haircut; then he and Dondre went out again. In the sixth-floor hallway on their way out, Kawaun made fun of Dondres clothes. The two teenagers yelled names at each other. Then Kawaun grabbed Dondres hair, and Hawthorne put Kawaun in a choke hold. While he held his friends head, Dondre told detectives, he pulled a revolver from his pocket and shot Kawaun in the head.

Kawaun died in the stairwell. bt pvS. iftjfL lin1- tfD va-V a I A 1aAL -4- Ai err miia if n-r jpodrt atthe! luniimdtmi feS'AU iMnddm'd ipl9k pulledup an pulled aomethftiysflvag Wa looked tfoserand friends and irtfbdlism juststoodl there looking at him then I (Betheas actual ompoaltlaY? sfinkwiki Please see SLAYING on Page 17 Imeldas 5th Avenue Condo Sold Buyer will pay $3.6 million NEWSDAY, SATURDAY. FEBRUARY 25, 1969 By Harry Berkowitz The luxury 7-bedroom, Fifth Avenue condo once controlled by Imelda Marcos is being sold Monday for $3,675 million by the Philippines to an unidentified buyer, government representatives said yesterday. The apartment, on the 43rd floor of Olympic Tower, is the first of the New York properties once controlled by the former Philippine president Ferdinand Marcos and his wife to be sold by the government.

The government led by Corazon Aquino has been trying to recover $3 billion in money and properties it says Marcos fraudulently obtained as leader of the Philippines. The proceeds from the condo are to go to the Philippine Agrarian Reform Program to buy land for peasants, said Teresa Koxas, a member of the Presidential Commission on Good Government, the Philippine panel trying to recover the Marcos money. It is highly symbolic that the first of the stolen Philippine properties in New York to be sold is the former dictators home and that something so lavish will be redirected to a proper social use, said Franklin Siegel, a lawyer who has represented the government' Ferdinand and through the Center for Constitutional Rights, a nonprofit law firm in New York. The 10-room apartment, which has been on the market since July, was bought in 1976 for $688,000 by offshore companies controlled by the Marcoses. Antonio Floriendo, a Marcos associate who purportedly ran the companies, handed over the apartment, along with the 2 6-room Linden-mere estate on Long Island, and a six-bedroom house in Hawaii valued at about $2 million, as part of a 1987 set-tlempnt of The winning biidder for the Lindenmere estate has backed out of a deal worth more than $4.5 million, Roxas said.

The contents of the Olympic Tower apartment, including a Fontai ne- La tour painting that sold for $400,000, were auctioned at Christies last year. A house used by the Marcoses daughter while she attended Princeton University was sold in 1987 for $1 million. The Philippine government is also tiying to gain title to four Manhattan buildings formerly controlled by the Marcoses and sell them for about $400 million. Dallas Gatewood contributed to this story.
