MONDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1992DETROIT FREE PRESS 5A Man upset at taction lolls 6 people, himself 3 were shot at card club that barred him OVERNIGHT STA YS FROM $149. 90 CALL FOR DETAILS I As the woman was telling deputies by phone early Sunday that Drake had threatened to kill her, he shot himself in the head, Wiley said. Zatko was Drake's former landlord and had gone to court to evict him, sheriffs Lt. Pat Hedges said. Metcalf had testified against Drake in a court hearing.

Drake, known in the area as "Crazy Jim," was barred from the card club for being a troublemaker, the San Luis Obispo County Telegram-Tribune 1 7 Associated Press MORRO BAY, Calif. A man apparently seeking revenge for being evicted from his home and barred from a card club killed six people and wounded another in three attacks before killing himself, authorities said Sunday. Lynwood Drake III, 43, shot himself Sunday morning while authorities were talking by phone to a woman he took hostage after the shootings, said San Luis Obispo County Sheriffs Sgt. Tom Wiley. The hostage wasn't hurt.

Authorities said the killings began Saturday evening when Drake went to a Monro Bay house with a pistol. He bling hall in nearby Paso Robles and killed two men and a woman. David Law, 47, of Atascadero and Joe Garcia, 60, of Paso Robles died at the scene, while the 30-year-old woman, whose name wasn't released, died later at a hospital, authorities said. It was unclear if the victims were players or dealers at the club. Sheriffs deputies later found Drake with the hostage about 10 miles away at a home in San Miguel.

killed Norm ivietcalf, 27, and Danny Cizek, 32, and wounded Jeffrey Sidlin, 27, police said. Cizek was killed as he and Sidlin wrestled with Drake over the gun, and Sidlin was wounded as he fled the house, authorities said. At a nearby house, 80-year-old Andrew Zatko was shot to death in front of his live-in companion, silent film actress Gladys Walton, police said.

whether or not politics played any part in the second Weinberger indictment." Dole, said Walsh assistant James Brosnahan had obtained the new indictment against Weinberger and had earlier contributed $500 to Clinton's campaign. Brosnahan recently joined Walsh's staff. Dole said a Justice Department special prosecutor should mount an investigation to determine "whether or not politics played any part" in the Weinberger indictment. Walsh said Sunday that Brosna-han's contribution to Clinton before being hired "seems to me irrelevant." Speaking in Little Rock, Clinton spokeswoman Dee Dee Myers called Dole's charges "ridiculous." "I don't really understand what his motives are for re-raising this issue. The election is over," she said.

On Saturday, the Washington Post reported that Vice President Dan Quayle and some Bush aides were recommending a presidential pardon for Weinberger and other Iran-contra figures. 1 1: Free Press Washington Staff WASHINGTON Senate Republican leader Bob Dole said Sunday that President George Bush should consider pardoning all the defendants in the Iran-contra scandal. Dole also called for an investigation of Iran-contra prosecutor Lawrence Walsh. Dole said a second Iran-contra indictment against former Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger four days before the election was obtained by a lawyer who had made campaign contributions to president-elect Bill Clinton's campaign. The indictment included the text of a note from Weinberger describing Bush's support in 1986 for President Ronald Reagan's arms-for-hostages deal with Iran.

Bush, who was vice president at the time and has described himself as being "out of the loop" on the deal, was forced to answer questions raised by the indictment at the end of the presidential campaign. Some Republicans have complained that the timing of the indictment was a dirty trick perpetrated by Democratic lawyers working for Walsh. Walsh, a Republican who served in Dwight D. Eisenhower's administration, has repeatedly denied that there was any political motivation in the second indictment of Weinberger. "It's a Democratic hotbed of Democratic activist lawyers in the special prosecutor's office," Dole said Sunday on CBS's "Face the Nation."
