Mary said the man then forced one of her
hands out of a closed window in the rest
room and fled. She said she began to walk
home and cried until she fell down in the
street. Mary was taken to the University
Health Center. She said she has learned
from her experience.
“I make sure somebody knows where I’m
going and the way I’m going to take,” she
said.
Another victim was not so seriously as
saulted or affected by her experience. This
woman — call her Jane — is a 25-year-old
mother of two who works as a secretary in
one of the science buildings on campus.
Jane said she had a load of books in her
hands and was walking alone down a stair
well when she saw a young man, a “really
clean-cut looking guy” about 19 years old.
He was reading a bulletin board and
when she passed him, he grabbed her
breast. Jane handled it very cooly, saying,
“You little punk. You’d just better keep
your hands off me.”
Jane said the man was “definitely a stu
dent.”
After she told him to go away, she said,
he grinned a “smirking grin” and walked
off. She went back to her office and related
the incident to her boss who called the
University Police. Patrolman Robert K.
Sorensen came to investigate the call.
Together, Jane and Sorensen walked to
the scene, and he walked her all the way
back to her desk in another building.
Another woman said she talked a poten
tial rapist out of raping her while he held a
pillow over her head in her bed.
The first thing to do in case of rape or
attack is to get to a health facility, such as
the University Health Center. The clinic
report is important for the police. The
Health Center will get in touch with the
police as well as a counselor if desired.
Hope said there are some disadvantages
to not seeking help.
“You must put into perspective the prob
lems encountered,” she said. “Will I tell
my future husband that I was raped?”
Hope said there are four principle stages
after rape.
The first is the anger stage. It is healthy
to be angry that it happened to you and to
The third stage is acceptance. The
woman must plan on how to deal with it in
the future.
The fourth stage is resolution.
“Counseling is like the catalyst in a
chemical process,” said Hope. She said the
center will present a lot of options. Coun
seling can speed the process of helping
emotional wounds, and it is confidential.
Pregnancy is always a possibility if rape
occurs. The Health Center may prescribe a
“morning after pill” to be bought at a local
pharmacy if a physical examination proves a
rape occurred.
Eugene Lyles, an assistant student legal
advisor, said the lawyers cannot handle
rape cases on campus because “the state of
Texas handles it for you.” His help, as well

One dead, seven missing
in Florida plane crash
United Press International
PENSACOLA, Fla. —A National
Airlines 727 jet smacked into foggy
Pensacola Bay without warning
Monday night and slowly sank in the
choppy waters. A federal aviation of
ficial said one of the 62 occupants was
killed and seven others were miss
ing.
A nearby barge rushed in and
picked up many of the screaming oc
cupants of the stricken plane and a
flotilla of small boats later aided in
the rescue.
“We don’t know whether the miss
ing are dead or just not accounted
for,” said Harland Lore, deputy chiei
of the Federal Aviation Administra
tion tower at Pensacola Airport.
“There were so many small boats
out there picking up people there’s
no way to get a quick head count.
One guy said he got lost in the dark
and the only way he knew was to go
back home, so be took 12 survivors
home with him in his boat.”
Lore said a local National Airlines
spokesman told him there were 62
people aboard while National Miami
said 55 passengers and a crew of six
were on the jet. National Flight 931
from Miami to New Orleans to Pen
sacola, crashed in about 13 feet ol
water on its final approach to Pen
sacola Airport.

TOKYO — A Japanese company
Monday introduced a new watch
capable of addition, subtraction,
multiplication and even figuring
percentages.
. Officials of the Citizen Watch
Corp. said the Citizen Digital Cal
culator Watch also does routine cal
culation, memory, automatic turnoff
switch and a light so its functions
can be utilized at night.
“But it, of course, has a function
as a watch. You can see time and
date and month,” the officials said.
It runs about three years on a
small mercury battery, costs $46
and will be sold starting the end of
the month, the officials said.
thing I knew we hit the water,” said
Jana Stevens, 19, a passenger.
“All sorts of water sloshed in and
so did gas,” she said from West
Florida Hospital where she was
being treated for a bruised knee.
The jet remained intact, did not
sink immediately and passengers
were able to get out through doors as
the barge, apparently anchored or
under way nearby, pulled alongside
the plane.
The plane later sank with only its
tail section sticking out of the water.
Rescue workers found one un
identified body, “I think in the
water,” said Lt. E. M. Coffman,
chief investigator for the Santa Rosa
County Sheriff’s Department.
The body was taken to the com
mand post on Carson Point, a penin
sula jutting into the Gulf of Mexico,
pending the arrival of a medical ex
aminer early today.
A total of 26 people were taken to
West Florida, one of five hospitals in
the Pensacola area that were on dis
aster alert. Six were admitted to
West Florida — the most seriously
injured was National flight stewar
dess Debbie Vertplank, 28, who
underwent emergency surgery for a
ruptured spleen and was placed in
intensive care.
National would not release the
names of the passengers but iden
tified the crew as Capt. George
Kunz, Co-pilot Leonard Sanderson,
Flight Engineer James Stockwell,
and flight attendants Ms. Verplank,
C. Crawford, and Carl Greenwood
J r -
Stockwell, who was admitted to
Baptist Hospital in good condition,
said the plane was too low on the
approach. “We were apparently
below altitude. I can’t believe that
we were that low, but apparently we
were,” he said, then depliped further
comment.
