Justice of the Peace Walter Mathews is offering a special deal Friday that allows offenders to donate blood at the courthouse in exchange for having one traffic ticket dismissed. Tt'll give them a chance to have their traffic tickets dismissed without charge," said Mathews, 63, a justice for six years. This is the second time Mathews offer. has made the one-da- y In August, 17 traffic violators offered to give blood at a clinic set up in the courthouse in exchange for the justices leniency. Thirteen of those actually gave blood. A few people thought it was crazy, but they went up to the third floor and paid up, Mathews said. "Its for a good cause, and its cheaper than paying in cash. The justice also dismissed the tickets of those who were willing but unable to give blood for various reasons. Several people already have signed up to take advantage of the judge's offer, which can save them from $34 to $213, depending on their traffic offense, said Sheri Moody, courthouse communications specialist. In addition, donors and their immediate families become eligible to receive blood free of charge for one year. There are a lot of different ways to get out of paying tickets, Moody said. "This is just one way. The judge is making them an offer that's hard to refuse." home. Nurses said Willis was calling for his wife in the night, and she joined him in his bed.

"However, the public appreciates the press more than it approves of its performance. And the critics are much more critical than supporters are supportive. Gallup used a variety of special polling techniques to resolve and puzzles created by previous research, including many of the study's original respondents to clarify conflicts, and conducting a separate second survey to account for vagaries of timing. The interpoll, which involved views with 4,300 people, cost $257,000 according to Times Mirror Executive Vice President Phil Williams. If believability per se were the only credibility issue, one could justifiably close the book on the credibility gap." said Michael J. Robinson, who is director of the Media Analysis Projects at George Washington University and helped surpervise the survey with Gallup. Gallup measured believability by several criteria, and found, for instance. tht 55 percent of Americans think the press is accurate, while 34 percent do not. This is the same result pollsters have derived from roughly that question for the past 50 years. Specific news organizations do even better on believability. More than eight people in 10 give the highest or second-highegrade for believability to the national news media, such as the Wall Street Journal, the three networks and the news magazines. Personalities within news organizations, such as anchormen and correspondents did even better.

Gallup reported, "generally exhibit greater knowledge about the press, greater interest in press issues" than those who are supportive. The majority of critics also share a conservative ideology and a college education.
