Hicks charged $1,250 in golf equipment and dues for two country clubs to his campaign fund. He also used $222 in campaign money to buy tickets to University of Illinois football games. When questions about such expenditures were raised in June, he told The Associated Press that "every single legislator goes to those football games. It's about as political as you can get." Hicks said he uses the golf equipment at golf outings he sponsors. The campaign fund also paid $385 for air fare on Mexicanna air lines and $830 for meals at restaurants in Mexico City and Puerto Vallarta.

An additional $937 was spent on clothing. But according to the spending report, that $2,152 taken from the nated 25 House. "We didn't with all County sponsor."

PRINCETON (AP) Teddy bears are joining guns and two-way radios in police cruisers in five Central Illinois counties. Authorities plan to use the stuffed animals to make bad situations more bearable for child victims of domestic violence, sex abuse and automobile accidents. "We call them 'Freedom and they're designed to put children at ease in any tragedy," said Melissa Sims, a Bureau County sheriff's deputy. But Sims sees the bears as more than just a pacifier. She thinks they will improve the image children have of police officers.

"We want to show children that police officers are caring human beings, and this is one way to help," said Sims, who also serves as legal advocate for the Freedom House, a domestic violence shelter. The Illinois State Police launched a similar program in April 1990. Master Sgt. Chuck Schwarting said 169 bears have been distributed. He said the stuffed ani- ment at the police station and we needed something to make the situation a little nicer for John Thompson chief deputy in Bureau County mals have proved helped calm children and ease their fears at accident scenes and in other instances, such as domestic-violence cases.

State police bears are bought by the Illinois Credit Union League and are issued to the Department of Criminal Investigation and to each state trooper. A report is filed each time a trooper distributes a bear.

As politicians often do, Hicks has lent money to his campaign fund. Essentially, Hicks is taking meals and clothing from his campaign fund as payment on the $6,494 records show is owed him. Earlier campaign reports said nothing about reducing the debt in exchange for such spending. The Herald Review strives for accuracy.

By CHRISTOPHER WILLS Associated Press Writer SPRINGFIELD A Southern Illinois lawmaker spent almost $9,000 in campaign money to travel, buy clothing and do business with his own company during the first half of 1991, according to state records. But Rep. Larry Hicks, D-Mount Vernon, also indicated on newly filed state records that, in exchange for some of that spending, he is forgiving $2,152 in loans he made to his campaign. A spokesman for Illinois Common Cause, a watchdog group that monitors campaign activities, criticized Hicks' actions Thursday.

"This kind of stuff is either on or over the line that most people would consider reasonable," said Gary Snyderman, the group's managing director. Hicks defended hiS spending practices. "In filing my report, I have gone beyond what is required by state law in order to clarify past questions about my campaign fund," he said in a statement. "The real question, though, is whether I have profited from my campaign fund. The answer for that is clearly no." State politicians were required to file reports this week detailing their campaign contributions and expenses for the first six months of the year.

The way they spend campaign funds is not limited by any state law or regulation. Hicks' report shows $5,250 in campaign contributions was paid to his own company for car expenses. Over the years Hicks has spent at least $22,500 in campaign funds to lease a Porsche sports car from the company, LandSea Air Inc. The Very Best $69900 32 Per Mos..
