PAOE 14-CHILLICOTHE, MISSOURI-44401 FRIDAY, MUtoUSI 0, IVW Vet aids woman 'wrongly accused of murder' NORTH LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) Veterinarian C.H. Wulz says he knows what it like to be wrongly accused of murder, and that's why he befriended a woman who was questioned about her husband's death and who faces capital murder charges for the slaying of an attorney's wife. Mary Lee Orsini, 34, of North Little Rock, was charged with capital murder July 16 for the death of Alice McArthur, the wife of prominent attorney William McArthur. Mrs.

Orsini was questioned about the March 1981 death of her husband, Ron. The case hasn't been solved. C.H. Wulz, 51, of North Little Rock said by telephone Thursday that he became friends with Mrs. Orsini after her husband's death because he thought law enforcement authorities were treating her badly.

He said he was tried and acquitted of a murder charge in 1969 for the death of his wife, Evelyn, in Duncan, Okla. Wulz helped Mrs. Orsini celebrate at a champagne party after a grand jury was dismissed without handing down indictments in her husband's death. He told police recently that his pistol and five unusual bullets disappeared in late June after a visit from Mrs. Orsini.

Mrs. McArthur was shot in the head wun the same type of pistol. Tim Scott, a reporter with Little Rock radio station A developed the information about the murder charge against Wulz. Wulzz said he befriended Mrs. Orsini because he thought law enforcement of- ficials were railroading her.

He said he was acquainted with her previously because their daughters attended the same school. President Reagan gets five minute break when elevator stuck between floors WASHINGTON (AP) -The job of president has its ups and downs and sometimes it goes Judge rules Hyatt documents should be relased to publi KANSAS CITY, Mo.

Wright ordered that a depository that has held more than 500,000 documents, as well as depositions that have been taken in connection with the case, be unsealed. It was unclear when the public would have access to the materials. The documents have been kept private under an agreement reached last fall between attorneys for defendants in the cases and victims of the July 17, 1981, collapse of two sky walks in the lobby of the Hyatt, in which 114 people died and about 200 were injured. At the time of the agreement, a stipulation was aiding Continued from Page 1 gram in financially strapped school districts is difficult. The local adminstrators, school board and faculty are working together to find a solution.

"We have been meeting with representatives of the math department, the vo-tech school and departments within the vo-tech on the computer situation," said Dr. Eden. "Discussions are currently being carried regarding the use of computers in the school district." The use of computers in the R-2 school district will continue to expand, Dr. Eden said. "We don't need to jump right in and spend, say $40,000," Leopard said.

"But we can definitely lower the cost of the individual units if we purchase more than one at a time." Leoaprd said the purchase of three to four units at once could lower the cost of the computer as much as $700 per unit. Leopard feels that by "networking" the computers, linking them together in a chain, the current system could continue to grow and save money at the same time. "The kids aren't aware of how important the computer will be in their future," Leopard said. "Computer education is important and if you don't have the skill you are not looking ahead to the future."

GORDON HOME FOR FUNERALS SOJOnrrry entered in both federal and state courts that indicated the depository would be closed to the public in the interests of a fair trial. A representing more than 125 victims told Wright on Thursday that they objected to opening the depository for fear that some of the documents which include original blueprints and slides might be damaged if many persons appeared at the depository to handle them. Attorneys for the defendants strenuously objected to the opening because they said it might damage the right of their clients to an impartial jury and a fair trial. There was no indication whether action would be taken in state court to keep the depository closed.

Attorneys in a former class- action lawsuit asked Wright to open the records in the interests of public access to documents involved in the lawsuit. nowhere. For five minutes Thursday it went nowhere. The leader of the free world, the most powerful man in the United States, the head of his party and his nation, was stuck in an elevator between floors. At the White House, yet.

Bolger presented the new stamped enevlope before an audience of military brass, high-ranking civilian officials and members of Congress.

The Purple Heart, awarded to any U.S. serviceman or woman killed or wounded by enemy action, was established by Gen. George Washington on Aug. 7, 1782 at Newburgh, N.Y. we are late," explained Presi- Reagan, a little sheepishly, to 200 people he'd kept waiting.

"In 18 months it never happened," he said. "What really scared me was when the gentleman who's been here for many many years, who was with us, said it never happened (before). We've been (between) here and the floor below in the elevator. We had plenty of time to get acquainted." The "We" were Secretary of Health and Human Services Richard Schweiker, Secretary of Education T.H. Bell, the president, elevator operator Freddy Mayfield and a Secret Service agent.

"I've been stalled in elevators many times, but 1 never felt so secure," said Schwei- cker. "I felt sure that help was on the way." The elevator was taking the five from the ground floor to the main first floor where representatives of National Health Fair programs were waiting in the fancy state dining room. The quintet spent a cozy five minutes in the elevator. "I asked the president what happened when the elevator stopped," said deputy White House press secretary Larry Speakes. "He said 'we looked at each other for a while and looked at the ceiling for The health fair people noticed only that the lights flickered for short periods.

Later it was learned that a fire in a power station nearby had caused similar momentary problems in a wide area of Washington. The Capitol switched to an emergency system. It did not provide enough power for air conditioning so members of the House and Senate, both meeting-in full session, pulled out fans as conditions in the chambers grew uncomfortably hot and muggy. It wasn't much better in parts of the White House. Outside, the temperature was 86 degrees with humidity at 66 percent, a typically miserable August afternoon in Washington.

"I began to wonder if I might not become a permanent fixture" of the elevator, Reagan said. Conspicuous by his absence from the little group in' the elevator was the aide who carries the "football," the soft- cover briefcase that contains codes the president would use to respond to a nuclear attack. Supposedly the aide is never more than a few feet away from the president. White House spokesman Mark Weinberg had this stiff response when asked about that: "There was no disruption of the system that permits him to i as commander-in-chief at times." all Woman waits for tax return 23 years ELIZAVILLE, Ky.

The planes bombed about 200 yards from the Lebanese prime ministry. The buildings were on Assi Street in the Sanaye area, where sources close to the PLO said guerrilla security offices were located.

PLO chief Yasser Arafat was seen in another section of west Beirut at the time of the bombing and Prime Minister Shafik Waz- zan was in suburban Baabda. One gunboat salvo struck near the a a beachfront Summerland Hotel about a half mile south of west Beirut's downtown. Guerrillas fired barrages of anti-aircraft fire but they scored no apparent hits. Police said 12,000 people streamed out of west Beirut on foot and in bumper-to-bumper traffic Thursday after Israeli forces opened one exit for eastbound travel, and that the exodus was continuing this morning. But Israel maintained its 12-day-old blockade of food, water and power supplies to the 480,000 civilians believed remaining in west Beirut.

Correspondents in Beirut said Israeli tanks had dug in about 1.2 miles north of the Beirut international airport near the Henry Chehab Lebanese army barracks in order to tighten a noose a a i i a refugee camp of Bourj el-Ba- rajneh, a major PLO stronghold. But PLO spokesman Mahmoud Labadi said Israeli armored forces pulled out of the barracks and rolled back to the golf club ground near the airport. At an emergency meeting of the Security Council that started at 1:52 a.m. today, the Soviet Union called for an arms embargo against Israel as punishment for rejecting the council's demand- that it withdraw to the positions it held before tank charges Wednesday on three fronts in the Beirut area. The meeting was adjourned until later today without a vote.

Israeli newspapers reported a Prime i i Menachem Begin responded to a sharply "worded message from President Reagan, which demanded "a strict cease-fire in place," by saying U.S. envoy Habib admitted he made no progress in his effort to negotiate a peaceful PLO evacuation from Beirut. But government sources said Begin and his Cabinet were giving Habib more time to achieve this goal, and Lebanese Prime Minister One killed, one injured in Kingston crash A 27-year-old Emma man was i and another critically injured in a fiery 4-vehicle crash Tuesday morning south of Kingston, on Log Creek bridge. Pronounced dead at the scene was Steven Leroy Carbah, driver of a 1967 2-ton CMC truck. In critical condition is Alba Judy Sumner, 25, of Polo.

She was taken to Liberty Memorial Hospital by the Caldwell County Ambulance. According to the Highway Patrol, the accident occurred Tuesday morning at 8 o'clock, when a southbound tractor- trailer rig, driven by William J. Richardson, 50, of Shell Rock, met two vehicles on the Highway 13 bridge. The patrol said the Sumner woman apparently applied her brakes and her car, a 1977 Pontiac, was struck in the rear by the truck driven by Carbah. According to the patrol, the truck apparently went end-over-end over the Sumner car, throwing Carbah out of the truck, and engulfing both vehicles in flames.

Terry Don McBee, 28, of Braymer was driving a semi- rig northward and in an attempt to miss the wreckage hit the bridge railing and was thrown out of his truck. A portion of the rig caught fire as well. He escaped serious injury, the patrol said. Richardson also escaped injury in the accident. Fire departments from Kingston and Polo extinguished the blaze and the Kidder Rescue Squad was also called to the accident scene.

The bridge was closed to traffic for several hours, because of the wreckage and the number of items carried by the trucks that were strewn all over the bridge. Shafik Wazzan said in Beirut that the Palestine Liberation Organization had agreed to evacuate within 15 days after a proposed international peacekeeping force is deployed in the city. Wazzan, a key intermediary between Habib and the PLO, told The Associated Press that the Palestinians no longer insist on a prior Israeli withdrawal. Lebanon's Moslem elder statesman, Saeb Salam, told the AP the a a i blueprint called for most of the guerrillas to go overland to Syria via the Beirut- Damascus highway, while others especially those wounded and those wanting to go to Egypt would leave by sea. Other reports said this second group of PLO fighters would travel by air or sea and would include those going to Iraq.

The guerrillas would be dispersed among the Arab nations while PLO Chairman Yasser Arafat and his senior aides are expected to set up new headquarters in Tunis, Tunisia, where the Arab League is based. State Department spokesman Alan Romberg said in Washington that Reagan's message also was meant to call on Israel to observe the cease-fire lines in effect before its advances Wednesday. But the Israeli Cabinet, after a five-hour meeting, issued a statement saying deployment of Israeli forces would be negotiated only "on the principle that all foreign forces (meaning the Palestinians and Syrians also) will leave the sovereign territory of Lebanon." Cabinet sources told reporters the statement constituted a refusal to withdraw from the new Israeli positions at the midpoint of the Green Line be- tween west and east Beirut, at Police check thefts, attempted burglary Chillicothe police investigated two thefts, an attempted burglary and a case of tampering with a motor vehicle.

Tampering Police investigated a tampering with a motor vehicle incident which was discovered at 11:45 p.m. Wednesday at 60S Locust.

The Cabinet also rejected a Security Council resolution calling for the stationing of U.N cease-fire observers in west Beirut. The statement said their presence "would signal to the terrorist organizations that they are not obliged to leave," and that Israeli forces would continue to return guerrilla fire. The statement blamed the PLO for breakdowns in the nine U.S.-mediated truces. The Beirut warfront was considerably quieter after Israel's 20-hour air-land-and- sea bombardment Wednesday, which the Lebanese police said killed at least 250 civilians and wounded 670 others. Sporadic sniper fire and occasional shelling was reported Thursday near the mid-city race course, site of one of the three Israeli advances, and around Bourj el- Barajneh.

The Israeli tanks pulled back in the harbor area but dug in near the southern PLO camps, and the Palestinians accused the Israelis of preparing for a long-threatened final assault on west Beirut. An estimated 20,000 people streamed out of the Moslem sector on foot and in bumper- to-bumper traffic after Israeli forces opened one thoroughfare for eastbound travel. But Israel maintained its 12-day-old blockade of food, water and power supplies to the 480,000 civilians believed remaining in west Beirut.

In east Beirut, a car packed with dynamite exploded outside the dining room of a hotel frequented by Israeli officers and foreign correspondents, the seven-story Alexandre. Nine people were injured slightly, windows were shattered, three other cars were destroyed, and five were badly damaged. An army spokeswoman blamed the PLO for the bombing, but a spokesman for the rightist Christian Phalange militia which controls in east Beirut said he did not know who was responsible. U.S. presidential envoy Philip C.

Habib met with Lebanese intermediaries to discuss a new PLO offer to leave Beirut under U.S.-guaranteed safe passage to neighboring Syria, Lebanon's state radio and television reported.

When I saw the announcement in the paper o' the death, it looked like Lee about to be railroaded, just like I was," Wulz said.

"I think it's a tragedy, a flaw in our system, that people accused of crimes are treated as if they are guilty," He said. "For seven months I was in a county jail awaiting trial. I would like to show you the food they feed. I would like to show you the filth. Now Lee Orsini is being treated much better, but it's still not good.

"I guess I'm a little bit of a crusader in this thing," he said. "I felt very strongly about the Lee Orsini thing a year ago. I did rise to Lee's defense after her husband died because I thought she was being railroaded." Asked if she was being treated the same with regard to the McArthur murder, Wulz said, "I couldn't be quoted as saying she's being railroaded. I don't know. I don't know why she's been charged."
