Norbert Schenk, 41, entered no plea when he was arraigned on felony charges of vandalism, burglary and discharging a firearm at an occupied building. A judge set bail at $100,000, ordered psychiatric tests and set a further hearing for Oct. 26. Disc jockey Sandy Shore, who was when the gunalone at KWAV-Fman began his rampage at 2 50 a m, thought the noise was the cleaning crew until she looked down the hall and saw shards of glass and chunks of wood flying through the air. Shot Record Off the Air The part that really got to me -was where my heart stopped when he shot the record I was playing right off the air, said the who had been playing Never Say Die. I called the police immediately. The woman on the phone asked me not to hang up and told me to find a place to hide, said Ms. Shore.

"He told the police he did it because we poisoned his mind. And he told police he came in the middle of the night so that he wouldnt hurt anybody, said Ms. Shore. Poisoning His Mind KWAV news reporter Julie Chris- tie said the gunman told police he thought her station "here and in Hawaii was poisoning his mind," but she said KWAV doesnt have a station in Hawaii. Schenk later said he thought that KWAVs afternoon disc jockey, whose first name is Kate, was the same Kate who had cost him his taxi business in Hawaii with disparaging comments, according to police reports.

The cotton forecast for the entire state was also down to about 50 percent of normal. The 2 25 million bales predicted before the storm would have been the smallest cotton harvest since 1946 and 17 percent smaller than last year. , o jou nHHt information, want sports scores, a news story or feature you want to talk Do you want to about Is your paper missing discuss a classified or display advertisement?
