Murder suspect eludes manhunt

MASSIVE MANHUNT Law enforcement officers used everything from a bloodhound to a detasseling machine Monday in their search for the man believed to have murdered two Waterloo policemen about midnight Sunday. By late Monday night, the manhunt had yielded no results.

WATERLOO A suspect in the shooting deaths of two Waterloo police officers early Monday was still at large late Monday night, after eluding nearly 100 officers who combed farm fields and buildings for him over five counties in a sweltering heat that the Iowa State Patrol said was too much for its bloodhound. The officers were also hampered by corn that was as high as an average person and at one point those on the ground used farm machinery in their search corn detasselers that allowed them to ride above the plants. Other officers from state, county and city agencies, with weapons drawn, searched fields from the hoods of police cars. Killed were Wayne Rice, 27, a three-year veteran of the force, and Michael Hoing, 28, a six-year veteran. The dead officers had been sent to answer a routine complaint about a loud stereo in a racially mixed neighborhood just a few blocks from the Waterloo police station late Sunday night. Within moments of the time the officers showed up at 11:54 p.m. Sunday, intending to tell the residents to turn the stereo down, a man bolted from the house and shot the two officers. Police said four or five shots were fired. Both slain officers had law enf o r c e m e n t b a c k g r o u n d s . Hoing's father has been a lieutenant on the Waterloo police force for 23 years and his mother is a police dispatcher. Rice's mother is a dispatcher for the nearby Evansdale Police Department and was on duty at the time of the shooting. It was the first time in 25 years a Waterloo officer died in the line of duty. "This was a senseless killing,"

James Taylor said Mayor Leo Rooff, who said Rice's wife had just given birth three days ago. "No justice can be swift or severe enough to compensate for the killings." Hoing's mother, Peggy Hoing, said in a newspaper interview in 1974 that her son had said he wanted to be a policeman since he was old enough to talk." It was that year her son joined the force and made the department a family tradition. Searchers, aided by two state airplanes loaned by Gov. Robert Ray and two helicopters from Cedar Rapids, were looking for James Michael "T-Bone" Taylor, who was last seen by a farm wife as she looked from the picture window of her home two miles south of La Porte City. That was 6:30 a.m. "How he got away from us is beyond me," said Capt. Wayne Boots of the Black Hawk County Sheriffs Department, who said since Taylor could not be located by Please turn to page 2A: Murders

The Iowa heat wave of the past several days has claimed the lives of three elderly Des Moines residents. No deaths were reported in Cedar Rapids, although officials at both Cedar Rapids hospitals Related story page 5A

Heat kills 3 lowans, zaps C.R. power

said chronic heart and lung health problems of elderly persons are aggravated by extreme heat and humidity. Polk County Medical Examiner Dr. R.C. Wooters said Amy Bell, 89, died in her Des Moines apartment Sunday night. He said when he arrived, the temperature in her quarters was 97 degrees. Lenore Soderlund, 80, died at 7 a.m. Monday in her home from heat stroke, Dr. Wooters said. David Houston, 81, died in his sleep Saturday from heat stroke. Bell reportedly had air conditioning, but it quit over the weekend and she had not been able to get it repaired. Although the temperature Monday wasn't even close to the record in Cedar Rapids, power outages in some parts of west Cedar Rapids and in Jones County raised tempers. For some 1,800 people the power was off from 4:20 to 9:16 p.m. It was off a shorter time for others. Monday's high

in Cedar Rapids was 93; the record temperature was 108 in 1936. The high in Des Moines Monday was 96. Early Monday evening a rain storm moved through the area dropping the temperature 17 degrees in 2 hours from 91 at 6 p.m. to 74 at 8 p.m. The storm dumped 2.2 inches of rain in 35 minutes at the Marion Airport east of Marion. Although it rained heavily in downtown Cedar Rapids, the official reporting station at the Cedar Rapids airport had no measureable precipitation. On Monday afternoon Cedar Rapids HACAP officals issued an urgent plea for donations of fans and air conditioners after phone requests from elderly persons exhausted the agency's supply of 70 fans by early Monday morning. "A lot of the elderly persons thought they could get by with just opening windows, but it's gotten to the point that they can't," explained Kathryn Bergstrom of HACAP. "A lot of them have chronic heart and lung health conditions and they need the fans desparately," she said. She said someone might well save the life of an elderly person by donating unused fans and air conditioners to HACAP. "What ever we can get, we can use. If a slight repair is needed to make the fan or air conditioner work, we'll make the repair," she said. Persons may drop their donated appliances off Please turn to page 8A: Heat

Court clears way for fruit fly spraying

SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) The California Supreme Court refused Monday night to block aerial pesticide spraying against the Mediterranean fruit fly in the Santa Clara Valley. The ruling cleared the way for an airborne assault against the fruit fly. Early today, a helicopter loaded with malathion was to spray the first 17 of 117 square miles targeted for spraying in the next two months. Attorney Andrew Baldwin said the plaintiffs would not ask the U.S. Supreme Court to prohibit the spraying. Five members of the state Supreme Court considered the request. The ruling was issued without comment, and no vote tally was announced, but the court said Chief Justice Rose Bird favored the request. T h e S u p r e m e Court decision came shortly after Santa Clara County Superior Court Judge Bruce Allen also refused to grant an injunction, sought by the county and three of its cities, against the spraying. "I think it's clear that the ground control program is not going to c o n t r o l this p e s t , " said Allen. "Aerial spraying is the only thing that can do that." Allen said he would not hesitate to stop the spraying "if I thought for one instant that any single person in this valley would become ill because of the spraying." Walter Hays, representing the county and cities, had taken the request for a spraying ban to the high court while Allen deliberated, saying he feared the Supeme Court would close before Allen ruled. Many scientists have said the mildly toxic substance poses no danger, but others fear it may harm children, pregnant women and people with breathing difficulties. Some of the more than 500,000 residents of the mostly affluent area south of San Francisco said they planned to leave home, and several shelters were set up outside the spraying area. "The judge's statement implies that until the case is over, the judge might issue some kind of injunction that temporarily halts the spraying program," said Roderick Walston, a deputy state attorney general. A spokesman for the U.S. Department of Agriculture, which had threatened to quarantine all affected California produce unless aerial spraying were begun, said a lengthy delay by the judge might prompt federal action. "It's certainly possible that if this were to take a long time for him to reach a decision, that we would have Please turn to page 8A: Medtly

JERUSALEM The United States and Israel announced Monday night that "misunderstandings" arising from the bombing of an Iraqi nuclear reactor June 7 had been "clarified to the satisfaction of both sides." But it was not clear whether this would lead immediately to a resumption of suspended deliveries of American jets to Israel. The announcement came after a day of argument between Prime Minister Menachem Begin and Robert McFarlane, a State Department counselor, over whether Israel had Improperly used American-supplied
*> ; %'

F-16s for the air strike. Neither McFarlane nor Begin would answer questions about the statement. In Washington, the State Department said McFarlane would return to consult with Secretary of State Alexander Haig Jr. and Congress about Monday's "clarifications." The department said there would be "no further comment" until the consultations were completed. The Reagan administration suspended delivery of four F-16s pending a determination of whether Israel had violated American statutes limiting the use of Americanmade weapons only for defensive purposes. The United States also

took the step in an effort to preserve its relations with the Arab world. Before Monday's talks, the administration had been reported anxious for some face-saving gesture from Begin that could be interpreted as clearing the way for the delivery of the four F-16s. With six other F-16s scheduled to leave the United States for Israel on Friday, the administration was understood to feel that the gesture would be useful to cover them as well. However, it was not clear Monday night whether the statement issued by Begin and McFarlane would be considered sufficient. The statement was interpreted here as an attempt

to conceal continued disagreement over Israel's proper course. Israeli officials tended to view the mission of McFarlane, who arrived here Sundav, as aimed at constructing a cosmetic gesture that would seem to give Washington some credit for restraining Israel. Begin was reportedly adamant during Monday's sessions. He was said to have argued vehemently during a three-hour meeting Monday morning that Israel had acted in selfdefense, destroying a reactor capable of producing an atomic bomb for use against it. He was also said to have rejected Please turn to page 8A: Mideast

- Murders nightfall, he had probably managed to find a way around authorities who felt they had near complete control over the search area. As the searchers, many wearing protective vests, wiped sweat from their faces and fought to avoid heat exhaustion, Boots said he was surprised the suspect had been able to outlast the hunt. "If I were out in that cornfield, I wouldn't have made it," he said. Being held in lieu of $50,000 bond as a material witness was Joseph Phamz. Waterloo police requested, and Magistrate George Stiegler approved, the bond. Authorities declined comment on Phamz other than to say that he was being held as a witness to the scuffle and shooting. Sadie, an Iowa State Patrol bloodhound, was brought in from West Union to help, but did not pick up the scent. Trooper Virgil Smith, Sadie's handler, said it was the first time in almost 150 real or practice situations that the dog failed to respond. He blamed her disinterest on the hot, humid weather. The temperature was in the 90s, accompanied by 60 percent humidity readings. The National Weather Service said those readings combined for a relative temperature of 105 plus and warnings were issued statewide on the heat. "We had a piece of the seat of the car (believed driven by Taylor and found abandoned nearby), but she wasn't interested," said Smith of his dog's performance. "I've never run her when it was so hot." Michael Hoing Wayne Rice

DeLong Drive, Marion, died Saturday at his residence as the result of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The body was discovered Monday. An assistant Linn County medical examiner has ruled the death a suicide. Born June 6, 1954 in Des Moines, he had been a resident of Cedar Rapids most of his life. He was the owner and operator of McGlynn's Public House. Surviving in addition to his parents, John and Donna McGlynn of Cedar Rapids, are two brothers, Michael of Cedar Rapids and Brian, at home; three sisters, Marcy Bader of San Fransisco, Sheila Faust of Waterloo and Shayla, at home, and his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Weidner of Des Moines. The body will be cremated. Memorial services will be held at noon Wednesday at the Stewart Funeral Home by the Rev. Stephen Snyder of St. John Episcopal Church. Friends may call at Stewart Funeral Home after 9 a.m. Wednesday.

However, Smith said the scent would remain for at least 72 hours and there was a possibility of another try. The search began in the La Porte City area after police there reported the suspect's car sped through town. Dorothy Boldt said her husband had just called from the post office in town to tell her that she might be in danger when she looked out the window and saw a man who fit the suspect's description. Her husband, Don, said he called his wife to tell her of the shootings about 6:30 a.m. "I was in town at the post office and heard about it (the shootings)," Boldt said. "I called and told her there was danger." By that time, officers had already found the abandoned vehicle and were looking for Taylor nearby. Mrs. Boldt said the man she saw was "walking rather slow" down the road. "He hesitated at the corner and I was afraid he was heading south" toward the house, she said. Mrs. Boldt called her husband back, who notified police. Mrs. Boldt was removed from the area by a

neighbor who drove over to get her as authorities converged on the farm within minutes. Authorities converted the Boldt farmyard into a command post. Police reports said Rice and Hoing had warned three men standing on the porch of the Waterloo residents to hold down the noise and were heading back to their car, which was parked about 40 feet away.' The reports said at that point someone called the officers names and the two went back to the house. One witness told police that when the officers got back to the porch, one of the three knocked one of the officers to the ground. During that scuffle, the man who did the shooting rushed out of the house and fired. Police Chief Junior Grimm said there were a number of people inside the residence and that the officers had called for assistance when they returned to the residence, saying they were going to have to make an arrest. Police surrounded the house, but the shooting suspect had apparently gotten away by that time.

Raymond H. Bridges, 76, of 129 19th Ave.

Slayings provoke shock, anger among C.R. police

By Emilie Hoppe The Cedar Rapids Policeman's Protection Association has circulated a memo stating that a bus has been chartered to take off-duty policemen to the funerals Wednesday in Waterloo. The department is sending a nineman honor guard in formal uniforms to the funeral, according to Meyer, who is in charge of the guard. While many officers will attend the funeral out of respect for the murdered policemen, some will go because they knew one or both of the men. Patrolman Jerry Chapman was a friend of Waterloo Policeman Rice, whom he met at a state policemen's association meeting. "He was a friend of mine," Chapman said. "But it's not just that, any time there is a shooting like this it's senseless."

The last Cedar Rapids officer to be wounded was Mark Fischer, who was shot Feb..4, 1979, after stopping a driver for disobeying a traffic signal.
