Show - Logan Utah Tuesday January 6 1981 The Herald Journal —5 Abandoned house may provide clues By United Press International converted from an old abandoned church said the white frame building “smelled like decaying flesh" City Councilman Arthur Langford organizer of the weekly searches described the situation inside as ATLANTA (UPI) — Police hope an abandoned house where searchers found children's shoes and clothing as well as axes shovels and two Bibles nail-e- d open to a wall will provide clues to the slayings and disappearances of 15 black children A source close to the investigation indicated Sun-da- y that an arrest would be made soon in connection with at least one of the cases of missing or dead “really strange" Besides the children's shoes and clothing searchers found two Bibles both King James translations pinned to the wall with four nails driven into the upper-cente- r of each open page The larger Bible was opened to the passages from Isaiah 1:14 to 3:25 the smaller to Jeremiah 15:4 to 11:4 Both sections made frequent references to children V olunteers who have turned out for 10 to look for clues in the children deaths wereSaturdays sent during the weekend to the house in a black residential area in southwest Atlanta called Adamsville after search organizers received a tip One volunteer searcher who entered the house children and death John Bascom another search leader said volunteers also found a letter in the house “It was a letter written from lady I guess to the man who was living there telling him he was sick and a pervert" Bascom said refusing to discuss the names in the letter David Westbrook owner of the house said he had rented it but did not know where the tenants had gone He said they left behind their possessions All of the items found by searchers were turned over to police who planned another look at the building today with a tracker and his dogs Don Laken said his two German shepherds had found the house two weeks ago but he did not go on the property because it was posted Laken came to Atlanta two months ago to help search for clues in the deaths of 11 black children and the disappearances of four others A source close to the investigation said an Atlanta television station "wasn't far off" when it reported recently that an arrest in at least one of the Will it be a Goldwater-Reaga- n LOS ANGELES (UPI) — The children of two very famous Republicans are busy testing California's political waters and GOP voters next year may be faced with choosing between a Reagan or a Goldwater for the US Senate nomination And if that isn’t enough to confuse voters the eventual GOP candidate could very well end up governor in the general election Maureen Reagan the outspoken daughter of the president-elec- t says she has been urged to make a bid for the seat now held by Sen SI Hayakawa and is considering entering the race Rep Barry Goldwater Jr has also made it clear he is “seriously” pondering keeping the family fac-iforn- ia lif name in the Senate His father Sen Barry is retiring at the end of his curGoldwater rent term after nearly three decades in the Senate As an initial step both Miss Reagan and Goldwater are attempting to keep their faces in the public spotlight Miss Reagan 40 returned to the airwaves this weekend after a seven year absence as host of her own radio talk show on Los Angeles station KABC After her first three-hou- r program on which discussed issues ranging from the draft to ecology the outspoken feminist and businesswoman was asked Saturday about attempting to join her father in Washington next year iz children's cases would be made “soon after the first of the year" The source who asked not to be identified said an arrest may be only a few days away The source also said investigators suspect that a cult was involved in some of the cases citing Saturday's discovery of the abandoned house and a find on an earlier w eekend search Several weeks ago volunteers found olive oil and a slowburning candle “sitting on some religious material” in an area under some railroad tracks in southwest Atlanta — indicating a cult ritual may have been performed the source said Langford said he had also heard reports that a cult was involved “I can't rule anything out" he said race in 82? “I haven't made up my mind yet" she said "but have told people I will consider it" Goldwater meanwhile is busy telling anyone who will listen that he is doing much more than just toying with the idea of moving up to the Senate Hayakawa recently said he would step aside in as a “good team player” if he was asked to do so by GOP leaders But he backed off his earlier comments Friday and told reporters he may run for a second term “I'm seriously considering it" Goldwater told reporters at his annual Christmas party for the Los Angeles media “I'm not just kidding around" Goldwater 42 a congressman since 1969 was urged to run for the Senate in 1976 but declined for personal reasons The GOP candidate who ran and won that seat Hayakawa remains a questionable factor in the political maneuverings he looked forward to working with Reagan Hayakawa 74 added he feared his retirement could jeopardize the GOP's newly won majority in the Senate The Democratic side of the ballot still remains a question but Brown 42 who may still have his eye on a possible third presidential bid refuses to rule out a Senate run I 1982 six-ye- ar Saying President-elec- t Microbe engineering could produce liquid fuels ByAI Rossiter Jr UPI science editor TORONTO

chemistry laboratory indicate microbial oil production has a greater potential than the use of grains to produce alcohol for use as our automotive fuel The process starts with the use of photosynthetic bacteria or algae under the influence of sunshine to take carbon dioxide out of the air to make sugars A second system of microbes then takes those sugars and converts them into fuel or feedstock for refineries “This means instead of harvesting once a season for agricultural energy crops you harvest every two days and your productivity goes up absolutely enormously" Wayman said in an interview He said most of the world's oil today probably came from basically the same process — the decay s which had taken carbon from of the air “In a sense this is where all the oil came from in the first place What we’re trying to do is to step in the footsteps of nature but step a little more lively and compress into a few years what God has taken very much longer to do” Wayman said a facility to prove that his idea can could be built now and that work on a large-scal- e micro-organism- commercial development could come within five years “I really don't see any very great problems" he said “What’s needed is the will to do it" Wayman whose research is funded by Canada's Natural Sciences and Engineering Council estimated that one square mile of microbial growth ponds could produce the equivalent of 12 million barrels of crude oil a year In the laboratory he has produced a few ounces The end product of the microbes is an oily substance known as a glyceride which is suitable for use as a diesel fuel e Two rewarding ways to earn interest on checking funds at 524-601- 5) CVC to send more scouts to Jamboree The Cache Valley Council Jamboree Commit tee announced this week that
