RADUATI SENIORS YOU HAVE Grounds maintenance worker Thomas Morales adds the finishing touches to the service spaces in Concrete artist front of the Commons as he paints the service designations on with a stencil and spray paint. United Press International NEW YORK — The key wit ness in a $5.5 million fraud in vestigation, slain by an apparent hit man, had asked for federal protection after another woman involved in the case vanished, her lawyer says. The hit man also killed three men trying to help her. The slain witness, Margaret Barbera, 38, had pleaded guilty March 12 to a fraud charge in connection with an FBI investi gation. “If they would have provided it (protection), she would still be alive,” said James Coley, Barber- a’s attorney. Barbera was found dead in a rubble-strewn cobblestone alley in Lower Manhattan early Tues day morning, with a single gun shot w;faund in the back of her head./ Shfe was killed Monday even ing on the roof of a parking gar age near the Hudson River. Three CBS employees who saw her body being stuffed into a white van also were shot dead by the gunman, who apparently thought the three witnessed the slaying. Police believe the killer, a I white man in his 30s who used a .22-caliber pistol, is a profession al hit man. Chief of Detectives James Sul livan said the slayings also are linked to the disappearance and probable death of Jenny Soo Chin, 46, of Teaneck, N.J. Barbera had hired her friend, Chin, to help her keep financial records at Candor. Chin dis appeared Jan. 5, 1978, and was never seen again. Her car was found in midtown Manhattan Jan. 11. There were bloodstains and a .22-caliber shell casing in the vehicle, Sullivan said. Court papers show Barbera of Queens was cooperating with federal authorities in a $5.5 mil lion embezzlement investigation involving her former employer, Candor Diamonds in midtown Manhattan. The shell casing found in Chin’s car matched those found at the garage, Sullivan said. Court papers filed in federal bankruptcy court in the Candor case allege Barbera tried to shake down one of Candor’s owners, Irwin Margolies, for $100,000. Barbera left the diamond importing firm last May and had begun working at a camera shop near the parking garage where she was killed. The facility is also used by CBS employees.

One of those lists: 9mm handgun, machine gun, smoke grenades, grenade laun cher. Sullivan said his work is legal. He’s a bodyguard. Sullivan, 29, a former Golden Gloves heavyweight boxer, said he prefers the danger, exotic places and earnings of as much as $1,000 a day of his current craft to the bruises, small fame and no pay of the prizefighter. Sullivan serves as a “shield” for wealthy people, many of whom, he conceded, make their FOR SALE FOR SALE ATTENTION AGGIES 4 Diw Chests 44.95 1 5 Diwr Chests 54.95 Siuienl Desks 79.95 5 PC.

John Tower and U.S. Rep. Phil Gramm,” DALLAS MORNING NEWS “He is a man who is in step with the times and with the needs and desires of the American people as is no other prominent Democrat. He is a man who has been in the forefront of creating vital legislation and worked skillfully and successfully to get that legislation enacted into law.” ROCKDALE REPORTER “He’s been following the urging of his constituents and a national mandate to cut spending and balance the budget.” ABILENE REPORTER-NEWS “Gramm’s ties with the Reagan budget cutting program do not involve Gramm adopting Reagan, but the Reaganites adopting Gramm’s thinking, philosophy and tactics ...” TEMPLE DAILY TELEGRAM “... one of a dying breed of conservative Democrats who understands the nation’s problems.

Phil Gramm is one of those rare politicians who says the same things to the folks back home that he says in Washington ... an agressive champion of conservative government.” DALLAS TIMES HERALD “In the friendlier confines of his home district ...
