Galbraith predict
a calm reaction
to Ghandi’s deatli
University News Service
Former U.S. Ambassador to India
John Kenneth Galbraith Wednesday
predicted that India will not react vi
olently to the assassination of Prime
Minister Indira Gandhi.
“All friends of India must hope
that there will not be a period of vio
lence and recrimination,” Galbraith
said. “My instinct is that there will
not be such a period.”
Galbraith was reached for his re
action at Texas A&M, where he had
participated in a student-sponsored
debate with conservative William F.
Buckley Jr.
A nationally known liberal econo
mist who has taught at Harvard for
more than 35 years, he was ambassa
dor to India during the Kennedji
ministration.
“My first reaction is ontofu
sonal loss,” said Galbraith, whoj
and became friends with Gan
1950 before she was elected tot
same office that her father, fon
Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nej
held for 17 years.

DENTON — A 23-year-old man
suspected of kidnapping and killing
a teenage girl was shot and wounded
Wednesday during an escape at
tempt, Denton County sheriffs dep
uties said.
Mark Robert Matthys, who was ar
rested Tuesday on charges stem
ming from the death of Michelle
Trimmier of North Richland Hills,
was shot once in the side of the face
by pursuing deputies. He was in fair
condition late Wednesday at a Den
ton hospital.
A spokesman said Matthys; who
was taken to the sheriffs office by
North Richland Hills police, was be
ing booked and fingerprinted when
he broke from custody about 3:15
p.m. He ran down a hallway and
outside the building, running east
toward McKinney Street.
Matthys was recaptured about 100
yards from the sheriffs office. The
shot that struck him in the face was
the only one fired, officials added,
authorities said it was a Texas
Ranger who shot the suspect.
Several officers were involved in
the chase, the spokesman said, and
officers called several times for Mat
thys to halt.
Suicide crisis volunteers nation
wide were reeling Wednesday f rom
an avalanche of calls prompted by a
fictional television portrait of a teen
ager who committed suicide.
“It’s a highly emotional movie,”
said New York ft. Gov. Alfred Del-
bello of the GBS production “Silence
of the Heart,” broadcast Tuesday
night. “The kids will understand it
fully.”
But, said Delbell, chairman of the
state’s council on youth suicide, “It
will shock the hell out of parents.
And that’s good.”
He was right. In Atlanta, harried
suicide prevention volunteers said
they received 10 times the average
number of calls. In Los Angeles, St.
Louis, Boston, Detroit, Dallas and
other cities, crisis center switch
boards were swamped.
“We are working with someone
right now on the phone who said
they were contemplating suicide,”
said Susan Buza, a Miami crisis line
worker, early Wednesday. “They
said they saw the show and thought
they would call us first to see if
maybe we could help.”
“Obviously,” said Alan Barrel,
acting director of Atlanta area emer
gency mental health services, “these
problems already existed. (The
movie) motivated people to get out
side help.”

District Attorney Bill Turner has faced his opponent in the courtroom five
times. Bill’s opponent has lost all five times.
When Bill’s opponent was an Assistant District Attorney, his job was to collect
forfeitures. He never collected one dime—that cost the taxpayers over $50,000
a year.
District Attorney Bill Turner has assessed retributions to victims that amount
to over $262,000.
Thanks, Bill Turner, you’re a District
Attorney we can be proud of.
