Services for Theodore "Ted" R. Stanley, 93, of Hazen, father of Mrs. Arthur (Donna) Rein-hardt of Billings, were Tuesday in United Methodist Church, with burial in Hazen Cemetery.

Born in Harding County, Iowa, he moved with his family to Minnesota in 1900 and farmed at Hazen for 17 years, then south of Hazen. In 1948 he moved into Hazen, and worked many years at the Bentley Store. His wife, Martha Clark, died in 1955. They were married in 1920 at Hazen. Survivors include his daughter; three sons, Gay Stanley of Hazen, the Rev.

Clarence Stanley of St. John, N.D., and Roy Stanley of Circle Pines, 21 grandchildren; and 17 great-grandchildren.

Miner said the first trap is hooked to a second and both are tied to a length of nylon rope.

It's a simply matter for trappers to retrieve the birds by following the ropes down a hillside. Do Golden Eagles bite? "It's very unlikely," Miner said. "1 have handled almost 300 birds and they are very docile. But you have to watch the feet, they are dangerous." The relocaction program wouldn't have worked if FWS had not had a suitable place on federal land to take the birds. "We talked with the park biologists and they said that this time of year they have a good carrion display to work with," Miner explained.

"The park is an exceptionally good place to link the birds too." The live trapping ideal has worked so well in Montana that Miner said it is now being tried in New Mexico, Texas, Nevada and Oregon. "When you capture 145 eagles in only two pastures that is unique," Miner said. "You have one heck of a problem. "The only reason we can come up with is that the Snake River drainage in Idaho has the largest nesting concentration of Golden Eagles in the world. In the spring they are apparently carried by those ther-mals (air currents) over the back side of the Continental Divide to Dillon.

"The best experts we can find tell us it is a geological quirk that concentrates them there." Another mystery is why the 8- to 12-pound birds don't beat the trucks back to the feeding grounds where they were captured. "I don't know why they stay away, but they do," Miner said. "Very few come back. Last year we had two and this year so far there has only been one." All of the birds trapped this season were juveniles, meaning they were about a year old. The trapping system uses a rabbit and an already captured Golden Eagle as the lure.

Widow PAGt i funding THERMOPOLIS. Wvo (AP) Washakie County's long-awaited lawsuit to force school equalization has been filed in Hot Springs County District Court. The suit was brought by the Worland school board and the boards of Riverton and Lyman against the state of Wyoming. The suit challenges the present method of funding school programs throughout the state and attempts to force the Legislature to provide for equality between districts. The suit alleges that students in school districts with less assessed valuation are being shortchanged because their districts cannot afford to spend as much on education as districts with higher valuations.

The state's school foundation program, which attempts to equalize valuations between districts, is too limited to provide true equalization, the suit contends. In practical terms, counties with large mineral wealth and low populations generally have extremely high assessed valuations and have high per pupil valuations, while other counties have less money to spend per pupil. Viets indicted for tax fraud LOS ANGELES (AP) A federal grand jury has indicted two Vietnamese refugees for mail fraud and filing false income tax returns in an attempt to collect nearly $400,000 in phony tax refunds. The indictment issued Wednesday accused Hong Duong, 26, and Hong The Ly, 27, both of Los Angeles, of applying for and obtaining Social Security numbers for 425 fictitious Thai and Vietnamese names and using those names to file about 850 federal and 800 state income tax returns between Jan. 1, 1977 and June 1, 1978.

The federal returns claimed refunds of $350 to $400 each and the state returns each claimed $37 refunds, said Assistant U.S. Attorney Leonard Sharenow. fixes whatever needs mending. "She's not a bad renter," says King. County Commissioner Mike McClintock says the little old lady still draws money from the County Poor Fund to pay rent, which then goes back into the Poor Fund.

"It's a bit of a bookkeeping nuisance," he says, "but the lady is still living in her house and I guess that's the best place for her." The little old lady, who is never late with her rent, likes the arrangement fine. "Honesty is the best policy," she says. And, since the little old lady no longer had any property and qualified for welfare, the county paid her rent as well. Each month she collected her welfare grant and marched to the Treasurer's office to pay $30 rent. She still does today.

Stan Hathaway says the federal government is out of hand and is not accountable to the electorate. And Wyoming state government is "quickly approaching that point," he said Thursday. Hathaway spoke to about 30 teachers attending the Taft Institute of Government at the University of Wyoming, a two-week seminar greared toward giving teachers a better view of how government works. The former governor said he supports Propostion 13, the California anti-tax initiative, and said it represents a "signal from the electorate that they simply have had enough." Hathaway said Wyomingites can't complain too much about high taxes, but increased government spending should concern them. He also criticized politicians who are "lacking in decision-making capabilities" and are "doing what's necessary to get elected." of a large motorcycle club with a national membership of more than 800, but the victims probably won't be able to identify their attackers, he said.

Another problem, he said, is that anyone with knowledge of the incident is either too loyal to, or too frightened of, the motorcycle club members to help the investigation. Sheriff's detectives said they have been in contact with other law enforcement agencies who have knowledge of the motorcycle club, but that no similar rapes have been reported outside Billings, i But other rapes simply may not have been reported. "Most girls probably consider themselves lucky to be alive and just keep their mouths shut about the whole thing," Ellis said. Lynn Brown, a member of the Billings Rape Task Force, said her office has offered counseling for the rape victims, to help them overcome guilt feelings. Brown said that as a matter of policy, the Rape Task Force will continue to give moral support to the victims if they press charges and go to court.

She noted two kinds of rapes: "confidence" rapes and "blitz" rapes. She said the drugging-rapes were of the "confidence" type since the men befriended the women before sexually assaulting them. Brown advised women to travel in pairs and not to place themselves in vulnerable of vision," and coma. Both rape victims reported losing consciousness within a short time after drinking from the go-cups. They were still incoherent when they were found the following morn-; ing in their pickup truck parked near the Indian Caves, and two days after the incident one of the women had still not fully recovered.

Less information is available on the third woman, because she is a 17-year-old juvenile. She was drugged and raped the night after the first incident, then robbed and left in Pioneer Park. That case is being handled by the Billings police juvenile division. One of the three women reportedly vaguely remembers being taken to a house, which she can't identify, where she was raped by several men while several women looked on. The fourth rape, which occurred June 17, is not believed to be related to the other three, but it also involved a drugging of a young woman, this time at the 17 Club.

Police Lt. Ken Bracken said the drug used has not been identified, and that no rape charges have been filed. One man, Douglas Litton of Pryor Star Route, was charged this week with attempting to prevent the rape victim from cooperating with police. Ellis said he is frustrated with the two rapes his office was assigned. Witnesses have pinpointed the attackers as members Smith Policemen, families shot; revenge apparent motive $100,000 bail in witness Bond for a Billings man charged with trying to bribe a rape victim to stop her from cooperating with police was set at $100,000 Thursday in Justice Court.

Douglas Litton, 24, Pryor Star Route, was arrested Wednesday after detectives said he met with the girl and her mother at West Parkway Cafe, according to the affidavit. The meeting was arranged through a third party, the affidavit said. Detectives said they observed the meeting for 30 minutes before making the arrest. The affidavit said Litton told the victim he represented a person involved with the rape. He offered to pay her hospital bills, cab fare and an undiscolosed amount of money if she would stop working with police on the case, according to the affidavit.

The victim was drugged at the 17 Bar on June 17 and was taken to a trailer house parked at 725 S. Billings Boulevard No. 44 and raped by two or three men. tampering He said he informed his "storm troopers to defend this headquarters to the last Jew." He also said that he gave orders to his followers to "shoot to kill" anyone in the area who tries to harm the headquarters. Collin, wearing a brown Nazi uniform emblazoned with a swastika, was confronted outside the storefront office near Marquette Park by about two or three members of the JDL.

They urged Collin to march in Skokie in Sunday. Although Collin is believed to have a hard core of only 15 to 20 Nazis, his threat of a Skokie march had gone all the way to the Supreme Court. Thsre, the court last week refused to hear the last appeal of the village of Skokie to stop it, and it appeared nothing could avert the march but a ruling by Leighton. Collin's case, pressed by the American Civil Liberties Union, was based on the First Amendment guarantee of the right to free speech and expression.

The gunman shot out all the windows in the car and a witness heard the woman screaming after it was all over, "Get my baby! Get my baby!" The officers were critically wounded and the wife was not expected to live, doctors said. Officer Charles Johnson, 23, who was driving the car, was shot in the face and Officer Robert Rice, 25, who was wearing a bullet-proof vest, was hit in the side. Johnson's wife, Darla, 22, a civilian police employee who was three months pregnant, was shot in the neck and her year-old daughter, Annette Marie, suffered a minor facial wound. Police arrested Sam Hudson 26, of Pontiac, within hours of the attack on multiple charges of assault with intent to commit murder and using a handgun in the commission of a crime.

One unconfirmed report said Johnson had argued with his assailant in the party store and accused him of committing a robbery. As Johnson was pulling the car out of the lot, someone called his name, police said. Authorities said Johnson stopped the car and the gunman opened fire. Police said Hudson had a long criminal record that included convictions for felonious assault, breaking and entering and narcotics possession.

He recently had been jailed for aggravated assault and carrying a concealed weapon but was released April 24 when the charges were dropped.

Police said the four victims were attacked late Wednesday in a car belonging to one of the officers outside a party store where they had Samoia: bad image fault of Reds LOS ALAMOS, N.M. (UPI) Communist propaganda has given Nicaragua a bad name, Nicaraguan President Anastasio Somoza said Thursday at the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory. The Central American ruler told reporters the protests planned by human rights groups in the state for later in his visit to New Mexico were caused by "misinformation about my government." He said he would issue a special invitation to his critics to visit his nation and "find the reality of Nicaraga." "Nicaragua has been very active in fighting communism, and this (criticism) is a share of the propaganda they throw to defend themselves and hurt the people who are living in Nicaragua," he said. The president, surrounded by guards, arrived at the LASL facilities in a motorcade Thursday morning.

He was briefed on activities at the lab, including research into geothermal and solar energy. LASL Director Dr. Harold Agnew began briefing Somoza and reporters by criticizing the "hang up" Washington D.C. has about an exchange program with Latin-American scientists. "If you look at our more than 1,000 foreign scientists here, there are few from this hemisphere other than Canada," Agnew said.

"It's not that they don't exist south of the border." Somoza was scheduled to return to Albuquerque for a tour of the Sandia Laboratories Friday. ber of survivors of Nazi concentration camps. Collin's Nazis only threatened to send 50 to 100 Brown Shirts to demonstrate for half an hour in front of Skokie's Village Hall Sunday. But the thought of brown shirts and swastika arm bands on the Skokie streets enraged Jews and Christians alike and attracted worldwide attention. Thousands of persons planning a counter-demonstration in Skokie against the Nazis were already assembling Thursday in the Chicago area.

Planners of the counter-demonstration said they expected to have a total of 000 present in an area five blocks from the Nazi demonstration if they marched. Despite his cancellation, Collin kept open his threat of a march in Skokie sometime. "The moment I suspect our rights are again denied 1 will again schedule a demonstration in Skokie," he said. Collin said he was informed the militant Jewish Defense League, which had promised violence against the Nazis in Skokie, will attack his headquarters this CHICAGO (UPI) Nazi leader Frank Collin said Thursday night he is calling off his band's planned march in the heavily Jewish suburb of Skokie Sunday. Collin, head of the National Socialist Party of America, acted on a judge's order clearing the way for his small cadre to demonstrate in the racially troubled neighborhood of Marquette Park on Chicago's Southwest Side.

The order by U.S. Judge George N. Leighton Tuesday ruled out the high insurance premiums the Chicago Park District had demanded for a demonstration in Marquette Park. Backed by a swastika flag, Collin said, "As far as Skokie itself, since it began back in March, 1977, I said it was pure agitation to restore our right to free speech. "This agitating pressure has now worked.

I have decided that, because our rights were restored, the demonstration scheduled for Sunday in Skokie is canceled." Collin's announcement appeared to raise a nightmare from Skokie, a peaceful north Shore Chicago suburb of with a 35 percent Jewish population and a large num MN.JMSL rz3.
