Because of his new vocation, he said, some of his former asso ciates want him hit. The government said his old buddies last week put out a $1 million murder contract on 50- year-old Barnes. However, a defense attorney for the former Barnes’ associ ates denied the contract charge. “Next to Ronald Reagan, Mr. Barnes is probably the most pro tected man in the-country. It would be utterly ridiculous for these people to attempt any thing like this,” he said. Barnes self-portrayal as “Mr. Untouchable” aroused indigna tion.

He was sentenced in 1978 to life in prison without parole. Last week Barnes emerged in public as a witness for the pro secution. He testified in court in Manhattan at a minor narcotics trial of a young man he helped indict. Barnes told an attentive audi ence that he had decided to turn government informer just a year ago. He also told how he set up a “Council of Seven” consisting of himself and six independent he roin dealers to control drug dis tribution in the New' York area. Barnes said he got irked when he learned his former girl friends had taken up with his buddies on the “Council of Seven.” I hat, he said, was why he re vealed them and their heroin activities — that and his hope of an eventual pardon. tscumm * THEATRES * * * * * * * *2000 E. 29th * $1 off adult tickets 1st Matinee Sat. & Sun.
