He served as a sergeant in the
Army.
Tate said that Reagan
learned of the request when she
telephoned Reynolds’ wife,
Henrietta, to express the first
family’s condolences.
Reynolds, 59, died early
Wednesday morning of hepati
tis complicated by bone cancer.
He will be buried in Arlington
with full military honors Satur
day. Reagan, and possibly the
president, will attend, Tate said.
Tate also said Mrs. Reagan re
ceived a similar request Tuesday
from former first lady Jac
queline Onassis that West, who
died Monday of a respiratory ill
ness, be buried in Arlington.
West served under six presi
dents from 1941 to 1957 and
wrote a book about his experi
ences, “Upstairs at the White
House.” He was 70 and was de
tailed to the White House while
serving in the Navy during
World War II.
Tate said Reagan telephoned
Onassis Wednesday to inform
her the president was granting
the waiver for West to be buried
in Arlington.
She said that Reagan and
Onassis chatted and “spent some
time catching up.”
It was not known whether
Onassis would attend West’s
funeral. Her first husband.
President John Kennedy, is
buried at Arlington.

Carter told reporters Tues

campaign described “issues that

They said he then ordered a
visitor to the apartment complex
to leave the area and fired a shot
at him. The bullet hit Lester
Rhodes’ belt buckle, but he was
not hurt, authorities said.
Police officers who tried to
calm Parkey said he fired at
them four times and they fired
back. Parkey was not hit and fled
to his apartment. Capt. Lawr
ence Turner then persuaded
him to drop the gun.
A spokeswoman for Indiana

the bill was an error — caused by
a computer problem — and that
it should have been for $33.50.
“We are very, very sorry ab

Mr. Parkey reacted in this way.”
Parkey faces charges of
attempted murder and resisting
arrest with a deadly weapon.
Ocean weather blamed
Hunt for Titanic delayed
United Press International
NEW YORK — Fierce ocean
weather and mechanical prob
lems are being blamed for de
laying the search for the “un-
sinkable” Titanic which sank on
its maiden voyage 71 years ago.
The search in the North
Atlantic, using a sonar system
and a magnetometer capable of
detecting the 45,000-ton wreck,
was originally scheduled for
Monday but was delayed again
Tuesday by mechanical prob
lems, expedition spokesman
Michael Jahn said.
The expeditioners were not
able to drop a line carrying the
equipment into the water be
cause of an electrical problem
and corrosion on the towing line
and the braking system of the
towing crane, Jahn said.
The “consistent strong winds
and a northwest excursion of
water” were also delaying the
survey, he said.
The venture by Columbia
University scientists began
Saturday and is being conducted
from a U.S. Navy research ves
sel, the Robert D. Conrad.
Texas oilman and investor
Jack Grimm, who financed ex
peditions to locate the Loch Ness
monster and Bigfoot, is financ
ing the expedition to find the
vessel.
The RMS Titanic, called “un-
sinkable” because it had water
tight compartments and a dou
ble-bottom hull, struck an
iceberg about midnight April
14, 1912, 40 miles southeast of
Newfoundland.
The iceberg tore a 300-foot
gash on the side of the ship, rup
turing and flooding five water
tight areas. The ship could float
with four flooded compart
ments. '
Within three hours, the 822-
foot-long White Star liner, on its
maiden voyage from South
ampton, England, to New York
City, sank killing 1,513 people,
most of them immigrants who
were traveling in steerage, deep
inside the ship.
2 indicted in prison beatings
United Press International
DEL RIO — Zavala County
sheriff Ramon G. Garza and an
investigator have been indicted
by a federal grand jury on
charges of falsely arresting and
harrassing prisoners to gain
confessions, and the investigator
and a former deputy have been
indicted for beating prisoners.
The 15-count indictment was
returned in U.S. District Court
against Garza and investigator
Alfredo R. Menchaca.
Menchaca and former depu
ty Mario H. Avila were charged
with participating in the beating
of a prisoner and pleaded guilty.
Garza and Menchaca were
charged in one count with con
spiring to violate the civil rights
of seven civilians by forcing
them to confess to crimes. The
indictment said the violations
occurred between April 8, 1981
and Dec. 19, 1982.
Garza and Menchaca also
were charged in 11 other counts
with violating the civil rights of
those arrested or detained. Both
wefe charged in another count
with holding a prisoner in in
voluntary servitude by refusing
to release him after he had been
cleared of all charges by the Dis
trict Attorney.
Avila and Menchaca were
charged in a separate criminal
information with beating Pedro
Nunez-Lesmes on Dec. 5, 1982,
and with intimidating a fellow
deputy sheriff to prevent him
from telling FBI agents of the
alleged beating.
Alleged killer worried
someone will kill him
United Press International
LOS ANGELES — Marvin
Pancoast, who has pleaded inno
cent by reason of insanity to
beating model Vicki Morgan to
death with a baseball bat, is “a
frightened young man” whose
lawyers fear someone will try to
kill him.
Pancoast, 33, entered two
pleas Tuesday — innocent and
innocent by reason of insanity —
to one count of murder and one
count of assault with a deadly
weapon before Municipal Court
Commissioner Robert Swasey,
who scheduled a preliminary
hearing July 28.
By entering two pleas, Pan
coast would be tried and, if
found guilty, could face another
hearing to determine if he was
sane at the time of the crime.
The arraignment was
arranged hurriedly by Pan
coast’s lawyers who tried to keep
it a secret. The attorneys have
expressed fear for their client’s
life, asking his jailers to increase
security because they are afraid
someone may try to kill the for
mer talent agency clerk to pre
vent a trial in a case that involves
alleged videotapes of govern
ment officials at a sex party.
One of the lawyers com
plained in court that the District
Attorney’s Office fueled the
notoriety surrounding the case
that could “expose (Pancoast) to
additional risk” by informing
the media about the arraign
ment, which was originally sche
duled July 25.
But Deputy District Attorney
Stanley Weisberg said the media
had a right to attend the hear
ing. Swasey agreed with the pro
secutor and refused to admon
ish the district attorney.
Pancoast’s principal attorney,
Arthur Barens, said he asked
the arraignment be moved
ahead from July 25 to avoid ex
posing his client to danger and
publicity and also to dissociate
his case from Beverly Hills attor
ney Robert K. Steinberg, who
claimed last week he saw
videotapes of Morgan and gov
ernment officials in sex acts.
July 25 is the day Steinberg is
scheduled to appear to answer a
court order to produce the
tapes, which he said have now
been stolen from his office.
Beverly Hills police have re
commended the lawyer be
charged with filing a false theft
report.
Morgan, 30, long-time mis
tress to presidential confidant
Alfred Bloomingdale, was killed
July 7 as she slept in the con
dominium she shared with Pan
coast.

Reagan with inconsistency in his
China policy and a lack of con
cern for human rights in Central
America.
“(Reagan) advocated even af
ter he became president that in
effect we should shift our eggs
back to the Taiwan basket and
abandon the U.S.-China re
lationship,” he said.
Carter said he believed the
administration should cut off
military aid to El Salvador until
the Central American country
respects the human rights of its
citizens.
“In Nicaragua I think that de
spite semantical denials, the Un
ited States is directly and overtly
involved in the overthrow of the
Sandinista government,” he
said.
