Youth questioned
for police deaths
DALLAS (AP) — Just as police
and their loved ones gathered Sun
day to mourn the deaths of two offi
cers, a Dallas mother turned in her
16-year-old son who is suspected of
leading a high-speed chase that pre
ceded the officers’ fatal crash.
The boy was undergoing ques
tioning Sunday night in connection
with a stolen car and the chase that
led to the deaths of officers Lisa
Sandel, 26, and Mark Fleming, 24,
said Sgt. Joe Murdock of the depart
ment’s youth section.
Sandel and Fleming died of inju
ries suffered when their patrol car
rammed into a pickup Friday night
during the pursuit on rain-slick
Loop 12.
Murdock said he was told that the
boy’s mother brought him to the de
partment’s hit-and-run division,
which is investigating the wreck.
“She got word, 1 understand . . .
that he was a suspect and she
brought him down,” Murdock said.
He said the teen-ager, whose
name is being withheld, would be
held at Dallas County Juvenile De
tention Center Sunday night.
The juvenile was arrested in con
nection with the investigation of two
counts of capital murder, one count
of attempted capital murder and two
counts of automobile theft, Murdock
said. He added that no charges had
been filed against the boy.
Word that the arrest was made
came as about 200 police officers,
their families and city officials gath
ered for a 6 p.m. candlelight vigil
honoring Sandel and Fleming, who
worked in the Southwest Patrol Divi-
Bolton said he though Sandel and
Fleming would like fellow officers to
remember them for their hard work
and would like the police force to
continue doing the best job possible,
despite the risks.
“We don’t know if we’re going to
make it home or not,” Bolton said.
“But we accept that challenge.”
Sgt. G. Toliver, who was basic
training sergeant for Sandel and
Fleming in their police academv
training, also spoke to the tearful
crowd.
“I know we all wish that we could
have been there in their time of need
to hold their hand and make every
thing OK,” Toliver said, fighting
back tears. “1 just hope that when
our time comes that we can leave
doing such a good deed in the eyes
of God.”
In her remarks, Mayor Annette
Strauss praised the police depart
ment and asked the crowd pray for
the hospitalized recruit injured in
the wreck.
Nathaniel White, 25, a recruit rid
ing with the officers, was in serious
condition Sunday in the intensive
care unit at Baylor University Medi
cal Center, officials said. White was
heavily sedated and was expected to
ramain so for two to three days, po
lice said. ,
Many in the group let out an audi
ble sigh when Deputy Chief Terrell
Bolton, head of the Southwest Patrol
Division, announced at the start of
the vigil that the person the officers
were chasing had been arrested.
Willie Earl Henderson, 62, driver
of the pickup, was upgraded from
fair to stable condition Sunday at
Charlton Methodist Hospital in
Duncanville, nursing supervisor Kay
Anderson said.
Officers with the Southwest Patrol
Division, where Sandel and Fleming
had worked less than two years,
seemed upset by the deaths, but
were looking ahead, said Sgt. James
Aylor of the division.
Studies: Attitude
may affect AIDS
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Peo
ple infected with AIDS may be able
to slow the progression of the deadly
disease by positive thinking, exer
cise, support from friends and other
ways of reducing stress, studies pre
sented Sunday suggest.
But some AIDS researchers at the
annual meeting of the American As
sociation for the Advancement of
Science cast doubt on the theory and
others cautioned that such im
provements often are small.
“The jury is still out” on whether
positive thinking and other ways of
coping with stress might delay devel
opment of AIDS in infected people
or postpone death in those who have
the disease, said Janice Kiecolt-
Glaser, a clinical psychologist at the
Ohio State University College of
Medicine.
“We encourage people (infected
with the AIDS virus) to do things
that may be helpful and certainly
can’t be harmful,” such as exercis
ing,-getting adequate sleep and nu
trition and avoiding drugs and alco
hol, said Dr. Karl Goodkin, a
psychiatrist at the University of
Texas Southwestern Medical Center
in Dallas.
But he said undue optimism
might slow progression of AIDS and
could spur people infected by ac
quired immune deficiency syndrome
to blame themselves wrongly when
their condition worsens.
Within the last decade, studies
have shown stress can affect the de
velopment and course of upper res
piratory infections, mononucleosis,
herpes simplex, rheumatoid arthritis
and skin, breast and cervical cancer.
In that light, Dr. Ronald Glaser,
chairman of immunology at the
Ohio State medical college, said it’s
not surprising to theorize that psy
chological factors may play a role in
the progression of symptom-free
AIDS infection to AIDS-related
complex to fully developed AIDS.
Bipod and psychological tests on
18 AIDS patients found that those
who exercised, were assertive and
had lower levels of tension, depres
sion, fatigue, stress and anger also
tended to have higher numbers of
disease-fighting immune system
cells, according to a study by Lydia
Temoshok, a psychologist at the
University of California, San Fran
cisco, and George Solomon, a UCLA
psychiatry professor.
AIDS cripples the immune sys
tem, leaving people susceptible to
tal infections and cancer.
University of Miami psychologist
Michael Antoni measured various
signs of psychological and immune
system functioning among 39 symp
tom-free gay men at various times
before and after tests revealed
they were infected by the AIDS vi
rus. Some of the men had been par
ticipating in a 10-week aerobic exer
cise program while others had not
Among those who turned out to
be AIDS-infected, the exercisers had
higher levels of certain immune sy
tern white blood cells. Men who wet
better at venting their emotions and
seeking social support also had bet
ter signs of immune system perfor
mance, Antoni said.
And compared with non-exercii
ers, the exercise group also suffered
less depression, anxiety, confusion
and bewilderment after learning
they were infected.

Goodkin studied 40 homosexual
men — 13 who were healthy, 10 who
were AIDS-infected but symptom-
free, four who had AIDS-related
complex and 13 who suffered fully
developed AIDS.
“The results showed that those ^
who had the virus but had not pro
gressed to AIDS had less stress in
their lives, more social support and
had a more confident coping style
that either the non-infected group
or the group that had progressed to
AIDS or ARC,” the University of
Texas said in a news release.
Goodkin said his findings' suggest
AIDS-infected people might benefit
from exercise, relaxation training,
participation in support groups, and
psychotherapy that emphasizes posi
tive thinking to reduce anxiety and
depression.
Voyager pilot ready
for high-flying future
TULSA, Okla. (AP) — Two years
after her around-the-world flight in
the fragile Voyager aircraft cap
tured the world’s attention, pilot
Jeana Yeager said she has no short
age of ideas about her own future.
“My problem is I want to do ev
erything,” she said.
The 5-foot-4-inch pilot, who was
honored in Tulsa by the U.S. Jaycees
as one of 10 outstanding Americans
for 1989, said she is developing an
aviation museum and hands-on edu
cational complex near Mojave, Calif,
and completing requirements to be
come a helicopter pilot. And, there’s
harness racing.
Yeager, 35, was introduced to
harness racing in a celebrity race last
year and has gone on to compete in
regular harness races.
She said Friday that she feels no
pressure to top the 25,000-mile Voy
ager flight.
“I’ll be busy doing a lot of differ
ent things and they won’t seem so
fantastic,” she said. ‘‘They’ll proba
bly seem mundane in many ways.
But they’re new and different expe
riences for me. They’ll be just as ex
citing as the Voyager.”
She and Dick Rutan Hew the ex
perimental plane Voyager 25,012
miles without refueling in December
1986.
