MOUNDSVILLE, W.Va. — Fif
teen inmates, including six con
victed murderers, staged a mass
prison break from the century-old
West Virginia Penitentiary Wednes
day night, but four were recaptured
within hours.
An off-duty state trooper, driving
by the medium-security prison with
his wife while the escape was in
progress, was shot and killed.
The 11 prisoners still at large
Thursday were considered “armed
and dangerous” and included ring
leader Stephen Hart.
Police in Ohio and Pennsylvania
were enlisted in one of the largest
manhunts ever organized in a West
Virginia prison break. Roadblocks
were set up along all major roadways
leading out of the northern panhan
dle town.
State Trooper Philip Kesner, 23,
and his wife, Connie, happened to
drive by the fortress-like prison
when the inmates, frantically look
ing for a getaway car, shoved Sgt.
Jerry Daff of the prison staff in front
of the officer’s car.
Kesner swerved to avoid an acci
dent and went into a skid. He was
jerked from the car. Shots were
heard. Some inmates piled into his
car and sped off, leaving Kesner on
the pavement bleeding and his
dazed but uninjured wife pleading
for help.

iVASHINGTON — In an effort to
rm the nation’s welfare system,
House voted to set a guaranteed
limum annual income for needy
ilies and to have the federal gov-
ment pay a greater share of wel-
costs.
’he legislation, which passed,
1-184, Wednesday night, also
itens administration of welfare
grams in an effort to reduce error
fraud.
be bill falls short of President
er’s wishes, but is considered
K most sweeping legislation that
■ild possibly get through Con-
Iss.
JHowever, the legislation now goes
the Senate where Finance Com-
ttee Chairman Russell Long, D-
, will get first crack at it.
The House, by a 205-200 vote,
rrowly defeated a Republican plan
allow states to set work require-
:nts for welfare recipients and to
up a pilot program under which
;ht states would determine how
eral welfare money is spent.
For the first time, the bill would
set up a guaranteed annual income
for needy families with children,
at income would be 60 percent of
poverty level as of Jan. 1, 1981,
[creasing to 65 percent of the pov-
ty level on Oct. 1, 1981. That
iuld guarantee a $4,654 annual in
line under current official poverty
evels.
This would result in increased be-
hfitsforan estimated 800,000 reci-
ients in 13 states, mainly in the
outh — Kentucky, New Mexico,
izona, North Carolina, Florida,
rkansas, Louisiana, Alabama,
corgia, Tennessee, Texas, South
'arolina and Mississippi.
At the same time, the federal
hare of welfare payments would in-
rease. The amount a state pays to
ward Aid to Families with Depen-
lent Children would decrease by 10
ercent on Jan. 1, 1981, and by an
dditional 20 percent on Oct. 1,
981.
The bill also would increase the
maximum yearly payment under the
earned income tax credit for the
working poor to $550, allow certain
recipients of Supplemental Security
Income to get cash in lieu of food
stamps, and make numerous admi
nistrative changes.

Mrs. David Core, looking from
her second-story window across the
street, said she saw Kesner sprawled
out in a pool of blood, his gun in his
hand. His wife leaned over him,
screaming for help.
“The girl was begging, ‘Help him,
help him,”’ she said. “But there was
nothing we could do.”
State Police Superintendent Har
ley F. Mooney said Kesner fired six
shots from his service revolver and
might have wounded one of his
assailants.
Moundsville city police, respond
ing to a burglary call at Wei-Met
Inc., a welding firm a few blocks
from the prison, captured Tom Lee
Richardson, 29, serving time for
armed robbery, and David Effing
ham, 19, serving a term for murder.
A short time later, state troopers
picked up convicted murderer Wil
liam W. Wayne, 18, and Wesley
Scott, 19, serving a sentence for
breaking and entering.
None of the four put up any resist
ance.
The break came at 8:10 p.m.,
when Hart asked for permission to
put his barber tools up for the night.
Entering the command post, he jam
med a pistol in the face of Sgt. Jerry
Daff, while another prisoner stuck a
knife to his throat and demanded the
keys.

★★★★★★★★★★★★★★
1979-1980Graduates Computer Science/Electrical Engineers
There are
professional opportunities
on a large scale at
NCR-San Diego.
You’ll find the facilities impressive: exten
sive buildings that cover a whole hilltop
overlooking one of California's most attrac
tive living and recreational areas.
Even more impressive is our aggressive
leadership in computer technology. From
♦he advanced work of professionals here,
two new NCR divisions have been generated.
NCR/SD is engaged in the design and con
struction of large-scale computer systems
embodying 'powerful new concepts: virtual
systems ... firmware emulation ... PASCAL-
based OS language . . . VLSI technology . . .
and other advanced developments.
The work we do has a strong impact on
NCR’s market position, provides high vis
ibility for professional achievement, and
offers experience in the new computer tech
nologies that we are using to anticipate
business EDP needs in the 80’s.
Although our products and facilities are
large-scale, we work in small project teams
with easy interdisciplinary communication.
Movement between projects is also easy,
so you get wide exposure to a diversity of
programs of varied size and scope. New
grads can find the best career path among
an ample number of available options.
In short, we give you the best of both worlds:
the stimulation of working with top profes
sionals at one of NCR’s principal computer
development and manufacturing facilities,
an exciting career-accelerating environment;
and a chance to enjoy beautiful San Diego
. . . where the off-job living is vacation-like
all year long. We look forward to briefing you
on our immediate openings in the following
areas:
