Policewoman promoted
after surviving, 500 attacks
United Press Internationa]
NEW YORK — “Muggable
Mary,” who has been attacked 500
times, got a reward Friday for her
troubles -— a promotion to detective
first grade.
Her real name is Mary Glatzle.
“Muggable Mary” is a 37-year-old
decoy cop who in her 10 years with
the police department has gone out
on the street with a backup team in
a variety of disguises — among them
an old woman — to invite would-be
robbers.
At a promotion ceremony at
Police Headquarters Friday, Glatzle
was jumped from detective third
grade to detective first grade, skip
ping a rank because of her outstand
ing record.
Glatzle has received numerous
commendations, including the
medal of merit for arresting an
armed rapist.

The U. S. Department of Educa
tion, the nation’s new Cabinet-level
post, is supposed to cut a lot of red
tape in Uncle Sam’s dealings with
state and local school systems.
The new department, voted into
existence Thursday by the House of
Representatives, takes some educa
tion functions out of HEW and
leaves some in.
For example, the HEW will con
tinue to handle grants to schools of
public health. The new agency will
handle grants to local education
agencies.
The department is not meant to
become a “big brother” looking over
the shoulder of state and local edu
cation departments, taking away
their independence.
Dr. Mary Frances Berry, assis
tant HEW secretary for Education,
now the highest federal education
post, made that point in an inter
view at the start of the new school
OPEN 8—7 pm
i
year.
With “education” in the Depart
ment of Health, Education and Wel
fare, there’s “so much claptrap” to
go through getting paper — propo
sals, contracts to the top for action,
she said.
It is hoped the paper won’t have
so many levels to pass through after
President Carter signs the educa
tion bill. But those waiting for fed
eral grants or approval on federally
assisted education programs
shouldn’t hold their breath.
Insiders say the “more efficient”
system will not take shape until
most education functions are ex
tracted from HEW. The new name
for HEW, by the way, will be De
partment of Health and Human
Services.
About $14 billion in programs will
be transplanted into the Depart
ment of Education — along with
17,400 workers.
Not included in the new depart
ment are school breakfast, school
lunch, school milk programs funded
by the U. S. Department of Agricul
ture.
But some education programs
now outside HEW will be inside.
These include:
— From the National Science
Foundation: pre-college teacher de
velopment in science; minority in
stitutions science improvement
program.
— From the Department of Jus
tice: Law enforcement education
and internship program.
— From the Department of
Housing and Urban Development:
College housing loan program.
— From the Department of
Labor: High school equivalency and

COLUMBUS, Ohio — A seem
ingly innocuous campaign stand —
against littered streets — has landed
Mayor Tom Moody in hot water in
his bid for re-election this
November.
At a Kiwanis Club luncheon ear
lier this week, Moody commented:
“I can understand the thief, I can
understand the burglar, the robber.
I can even understand the rapist.
Rut what satisfactiqn you get out of
littering’ T don’t know.
“The burglar at least only offends
the person whose home it is; the
rapist only offends that lady; but the
litterer offends the good senses of
every human being.”
Women Against Rape demon
strated in front of City Hall the next
day.
Friday, an Ohio State University
newspaper editorial voted for “one
more McDonald’s wrapper rather
than more rape.
Moody’s Democratic opponent
called him unsympathetic to victims
of crime and a state representative
from Columbus called him “sick. ”

The governors, who on Sunday

“I hope to show them a good
time,” said Louisiana Gov. Edwin
Edwards, host and chairman for the
45th annual meeting of the 19-
member association.
The energy issue, which will open
conference business today, is critical
in that the member states include
most of the major producers of oil
