United Press International FORT WORTH, TEX. — De fense attorneys for murder defen dant T. Cullen Davis claim they need more time to substantiate sen sational but unsupported allegations of drug use and threats of violence involving the millionaire’s es tranged wife. The attorneys plan to ask for the delay today at a hearing called to determine whether Davis should be released on bond. Prosecutors will dispute the jurisdiction of the new request that Daivs, 43, be allowed to make bond on the charges that he shot and killed his 12-year-old stepdaughter last August. Tarrant County Dist. Att. Tim Curry is expected to seek dismissal of the bond hearing re quest. Prosecutors say Davis’ first writ to be released on bond is still pending in federal court and, therefore, the latest request is without state juris diction. Most of the day will involve legal vering and nozness testimony may last several days. Defense attorneys submitted a document at an earlier hearing that linked Priscilla Davis to a convicted drug offender. It describes her mansion as a haven for drug parties and questions her testimony that her husband was the gunman who killed her daughter and boyfriend. Defense Attorney Richard Haynes said the affadavit was from David McCrory, an acquaintance of Cullen and Priscilla Davis since 1970. McCrory denied making the statement. Pierce Allman, hired as a “media coordinator” by Davis, said the alle gations contained in the writ did not represent an attempt to attract pub licity. The defense lawyers were aware of the conflict in jurisdiction and resultant delay, he said. “The defense attorneys very much want this bond hearing,” Allman said. The defense team did not expect last week’s mistrial dec laration by State District Court Judge Tom Cave.

D avis has been held without bond since last Aug. 20, which was 17 days after his stepdaughter, Andrea Wilborn, and estranged wife’s lover, Stanford Farr, were shot and killed at Davis’ mansion. The businessman built the 10,000- square-foot mansion during his six- year marriage to Mrs. Davis. No suspects were arrested at the 180-acre mansion grounds. Davis was arrested a few hours later at the home of his girlfriend, Karen Mas ter. igh energy use could cause crisis eardi into uses! stepped up. lit >1 Kiigineers ml ergy. .\ power gen® ler dam sites. nee to President Carter’s predie- m of a national catastrophe in Dr. Donald Anthrop, acting head economics and environmental idies professor at San Jose State 5SSSSSSSSSSS diversity, said at Texas A&M Uni- (rsity that Americans seem to be turning to traditional yearly in eases of four to six per cent in ergy consumption, especially th regard to electricity.

Electrical neration wastes two-thirds of the lergy produced, he said, suggest- g the nation should be moving ray from more electrical plants. “If we return to the historical in eases in energy consumption, merica will have to make up the ifference in increasingly expensive ports,” warned Anthrop, here for graduate lecture. He said natural gas production aked in 1973 and that crude oil 846-t production has been on the decline in the United States since 1970. Federal Energy Administration fig ures say we might be importing as much as 44 per cent of all petroleum by 1990. Alaskan production should not be considered a petroleum panacea, Anthrop said. A U.S. Geological Survey report said that a major naval reserve field which was thought to contain 30 billion barrels of oil probably only holds one bil lion. He said that shale oil production from the arid West and Southwest Lou buys used books every day of the year Loupot’s Bookstore Nnrthnato Across from the inv-m u lyaic Post 0ffice would require overwhelmingly large amounts of water that would be lost to a segment of the country that needs it. Anthrop said that efforts in con servation might include more effi cient design of buildings. He cited statistics from a year long study in Minneapolis, Minn., showing that in offices, during 49 weeks of the year, energy was used to take heat out of structures. This came from lighting, equipment, machinery and human bodies. Only during three winter weeks did the energy actually go to increase heat inside the offices. SAN DIEGO (UPI) — Marine Pfc. Jerry J.
