State District Judge Robert Burns said recent newspaper articles questioning the availa bility of a witness in the 1965 killing could prejudice potential jurors. He also said attorneys had to spend time recently pre paring pre-trial motions, leaving them with little time to prepare their cases. “I think there would be an injustice to both sides if we were to go to trial today,” said Burns. He ordered the trial to start Nov. 7. Foat refused to comment as she walked out of the court house with her attorneys, but friend and fellow California feminist leader Kay Tsenin said Foat was disappointed. “In Ginny’s mind, the quicker she can get her case in front of kioaer V ENTER THE KROGER 5 100,000 lamUnCenJ&i GROCERX EACH STORE WILL AWARD A '1.000 KROGER GIFT CERTIFICATE TO «( AWARDED Nov. 1I.1*U at A P.M. •ENTER AT KROGER •DETAILS ON COCO-COLA DISPLAY AT KROGER *NO PURCHASE NECESSARY grand prize *9jfR,9P Mum"**" JiT-JTl: ■T-I-TT JENO'S PIZZA B ) Crisp *n Tasty • p|ZZA KROGER Apple Juice 1 .‘can69 { El CHARRITO Mexican Dinners .’pko*! 19 KROGER CORN, PEAS A Mixed Vegetables ... ^ao *1 SUN VALE 1*OI*N Strawberries 2ctns. *1 BAKERY COUNTRY OVEN „ FAMILY PAK - J CAKE M BONUTS M CT.

Another supporter said the delay would help defense attor neys, who spent the summer and the entire month of September trying unsuccessfully to con vince a series of state courts that the murder charge should have been thrown out because Foat was denied a speedy trial. “It’s like studying for a test — you always wish you had another week or a month. But we were prepared today,” said Jan Hol den, leader of a defense fund that has raised more than $40,000 and needs another $50,000 to cover attorney’s fees and other costs.

AIDS victim left in San Francisco United Press International SAN FRANCISCO — Florida officials should help pay the medical costs of a critically ill AIDS patient sent to San Fran cisco for treatment against his will, San Francisco’s public health director said Tuesday. Dr. Mervyn Silverman said he couldn’t believe Shands Hos pital in Gainesville, Fla., spent $7,000 to fly Morgan MacDo nald, 27, to San Francisco by Lear jet a week ago and left him on a stretcher at an AIDS re search foundation with $300 pocket money. Mayor Dianne Feinstein had telegraphed Florida Gov. Bob Graham Saturday demanding an investigation of the incident. She said the patient was “dumped” in San Francisco, an act she called “outrageous and inhumane.” “We’re in the health business, not the transportation busi ness,” Silverman said. “We can’t forget that here’s an individual in an extreme condition. To be moved about like this is tragic.” Silverman said it was costing the city at least $500 a day to care for MacDonald at San Francisco General Hospital’s special AIDS ward, the only one of its kind the nation set up to treat tl deadly Acquired Immune De ciency Syndrome. MacDonald was listed in po but stable condition Tuesday. “I certainly would hope th the state of Florida, or the he pital — I’m not sure which would reimburse San Francisi for the care we are providing Silverman said.
