Free
parent volunteers to clean up public
schools that have been closed since
Oct. 26 because of a government
blue-collar strike.
School Superintendent Charles
Clark said between 130 and 140 of
the state s 228 public schools can be
reopened by Thursday.
Earlier Tuesday, the State De
partment of Personnel Services slap
ped 10-day suspensions on 1,500
striking workers for failing to comply
favor of the volunteer cleanup plan
came after a 2 1 /2-hour emergency
meeting of the board attended by
more than 500 parents. Last week,
the board voted down the cleanup
plan, also in an emergency meeting.
The three dissenters expressed
concern for unanswered questions of
the safety of the parent volunteers
and the students who would be cros
sing picket lines, and criticized Gov.
George Ariyoshi for not taking initia
tive in the problem.
said, “If we open the schools, we will
be placing the children in an en
vironment of anxiety and tension,
with no assurances of safety or even if
the schools might have to be closed
again.”
The school board also said that for
those students whose schools could
not be opened immediately, alterna
tive educational opportunities would
be provided.
Personnel Department Director
Don Botelho said the suspensions
and directors of state agencies
affected would determine the speci
fic dates of the suspensions.
Botelho said the suspensions
affect only those workers who a cir
cuit judge determined to be essen
tial to public health and safety. Only
a handful of the striking United Pub
lic Workers Union Unit 1 have com
plied with that order since it was
handed down Oct. 30, eight days af
ter the strike began.

Jaycees chapter finds home in prisede
United Press International
BALTIMORE — Charles Davis
has what could be called a lifetime
membership in the Old Town
Jaycees — he is a convicted killer
and one of the 66 members of the
Jaycee chapter at the Maryland
Penitentiary.
Davis is serving a life sentence for
murder and awaiting trial on a
second murder charge and a rape
charge. He claims his work as a
Jaycee officer builds self esteem and

helps him pass his time behind bars.
“Rehabilitation is what I do for
myself because nobody is going to do
nothing for you,” said Davis, 31, an
outspoken advocate of the Jaycees’
self-improvement philosophy.
The prison chapter, founded in
1965, includes 62 inmates and four
guards at the 1,300-man facility. The
traditional Jaycee age limit of 35 has
been waived, and the Old Town
chapter has one member in his late
60s.
John Bush, a convicted burglar
who serves as chapter president,
said Jaycee involvement keeps him
from becoming bored.
“I get up every day at 6 o’clock and
am going all day,” Bush said. “When
they turn out the lights at 11 at night
I m still at my typewriter. Through
Jaycees you learn management.
communication, decision-making,
and many other things. Through ap
plying these principles, a man can
build himself a new life.”
Bush, who is serving a 17-year
sentence, stressed the importance of
Jaycee leadership training seminars
on communication and manage
ment. The program seems to be
working, because prison officials say
Jaycee members are generally the
most well-adjusted and best-
behaved inmates.
Davis and Bush were critical of
prison administrators, claiming the
administration does not cooperate
with them in planning projects and
special events and petty harassment

the $15,000-a-year organization
even harder.

WASHINGTON — Urging a get-tough policy toward
the Soviets, transfer of major federal programs to the
states, statehood for Puerto Rico and a tax cut Ronald
Reagan becomes the 10th, and apparently last, Republi
can presidential contender.
Reagan, 68, began his third quest for the GOP nomi
nation Tuesday night before more than 1,500 cheering
supporters at a $500-a-plate dinner in New York City.
He left shortly afterward for Washington and a news
conference Wednesday on Capitol Hill.
Later the acknowledged front-runner was to begin a
four day, 11-city campaign swing across the country.
The former California governor’s speech also called
for an alliance among the United States, Canada and
Mexico, and sharp deregulation of the energy industry
to encourage domestic exploration.
While never mentioning President Carter by name,
Reagan called the administration’s energy policies “an
utter fiasco,” and blamed government spending and
deficits for high inflation, unemployment and a stagnant
economy.
“The people have not created this disaster in our
economy,” Reagan said. "The federal governmq

Reagan said “the key to restoring the
economy lies in cutting taxes” and getting“thew

After the speech, Reagan introduced his wife
— “someone without whom I couldn’t do anytt
the world” — and his children Maureen, Patty,
Mike, and Mike’s wife Coleen.
