bund innocent
United Press International
COLUMBUS, Ohio — A man whom psychologists said had 10
separate personalities Monday was found innocent by reason of insan
ity of rape, kidnapping and robbery charges.
Franklin County Common Pleas Court Judge Jay Flowers found
William Milligan, 23, Lancaster, Ohio, innocent on three counts of
rape, three of kidnapping and three of robbery. One rape count was
dismissed.
Flowers, who heard the case after Milligan’s attorney waived a jury
trial, had received a supplemental report from the South West Com
munity Mental Health Center that upheld the judge’s earlier ruling
that Milligan was competent to stand trial.
“He is competent to stand trial and he can understand the charges
and assist in his defense,” said Flowers. Milligan has been undergo
ing therapy at the Central Ohio Psychiatric Hospital, where doctors
say his personalities have been “fused, enabling him to stand trial.
Dr. Cornelia Wilbur, Lexington, Ky., an authority on personality
disorders and the psychiatrist who treated “Sybil”, the subject of a
bestselling book, is convinced Milligan could never fake the compli
cated memories and stories of his body-mates.

Skates replace her shoes
She’s rollin’ ’round the town
United Press International
DENVER — Four years ago, Jil-
lene Freed laced up her first pair of
roller skates. Today, she owns no
other shoes and whisks around the
city drawing smiles and amazed
looks.
“A car totally blocks you off. On
skates, life is not passing me by.
When I go skating by it makes
people smile. A lot want to talk
about when they rollerskated,” said
the 30-year-old Freed.
She is a native of Los Angeles,
where rolling has become an ac
cepted, if uncommon, alternative
method of transportation. Since
then, she has barely taken her
skates off and claims she has no
other shoes.
“I do have a pair of old boots,” she
said, while listing the advantages of
being roller-borne.
“No one’s going to steal them.
When I go down hills, I can practice
my skiing. I hope I’ll still be skating
when I’m 80,” she says.
She claims other advantages of
skating include not contributing to
pollution, no gasoline payments,
general physical conditioning and
not being shut off inside a car.
She rolls to business appoint
ments, lunch, to and from work,
shopping and friends’ homes, but
the path in Denver is not always
smooth.
“Being a pioneer, you have to
come up against a lot of criticism.
But it makes you strong within
yourself, ” she said of merchants who
have barred her roller-outfitted-feet
from entering.

M aking a wise investment in stereo isn’t difficult
when you choose Pioneer. We’ve become the
world’s best-selling audio maker by continuing to
deliver high fidelity equipment that not only performs up
to the finest state-of-the-art standards but offers the best
economy, too. This formula is expressed as a cost/per
formance ratio, and the C/P in the SX-780 couldn’t be
better: it is a stereo receiver like none you’ve ever seen
(or heard) before in this price range. Power amplification
circuitry is DC where it counts, so that TIM (Transient
Intermodulation Distortion) and other forms of music-
spoiling irregularities are minimized. The FM/AM tuner
circuitry uses Pioneer-exclusive ICs to overcome hazards
to clean reception and reproduction. Power output is
continuous 45 watts per channel, both channels driven
into 8 ohms, from 20 to 20,000Hz, with no more than
0.05% total harmonic distortion. Audition the SX-780 and
find out why more people prefer Pioneer.
