Police blotter

South Dade A Coral Gables youth is dead as a result of an accident Oct. 5 at the intersection of SW 124th Street and 72nd Avenue. Eric Glass, 14, of 6630 Tarrega, was eastbound on SW 124th Street on a Suzuki dirt bike. He reportedly did not have the headlight on and was not wearing a helmet. Glass was struck broadside by a 1976 Cadillac driven by Roy Weissel, 42, of 112251 SW 72nd Ct., as it pulled away from the stop sign on 124th Street. Deborah Thompson, 26, an employe of Pine Woods Villa Senior Citizen's Home, 8420 SW 118th Terr., told police that at 8:40 a.m., Oct. 5, two men entered the administration building where she works and asked for employment applications. As she turned to get the applications, one man struck her unconcious. When she came to about 20 minutes later, she noted that an undetermined amount of money had been taken from the cash box. Ellen Lasker, of 8865 SW 182nd Terr., complained to police that between 1 and 6 p.m., Oct. 3, someone took $300 cash from her home, apparently when a garage door was left open. Louis Broeker, 90, of 450 Grand Canal Dr., was found dead in his home following a burglary that occured at 1:30 a.m. Oct. 5. The burglars first ransacked the home, then tied Broeker up and beat him. He was found dead by his nephew at 3 a.m. Arrested as suspects in the incident are: Bruce-Dunham, 18, of 6701 SW 13th St.; Patricia Andrews, 33, of 3121 SW 66th Ave.; Michael Joseph Dias, 18, of Remoboth, Mass., and a 17-year-old juvenile. The suspects have been charged with first degree murder, and burglary. David Sharp, 25, of Marathon, was apprehended in Marathon, Oct. 76 in connection with four South Dade robberies.

Dixie Hw., on Sept. 19 and Expressway Carpet, 15355 S. Dixie Hwy., on Sept. 8. Horace Sanders, 44, an insurance salesman, was making collections at 6 p.m. Oct. 6, when a man with a handgun forced Sanders into his car and commanded him to drive to the intersection of SW 222nd Street and 112th Place. The suspect then rob bed Sanders and forced him out of the car. Sanders' car was later found abandoned a few blocks from the robbery. Raymond Chambers, 22, of 2115 NW 71st St., turned himself in to Public Safety Department officials in connection with the Sept. 13 mugging of Rose Adler, 72, at Dadeland. He will be charged with armed robbery, aggravated battery, and attempted first degree murder. During a police investigation of the Goddess of Love Health Studio, 7216 SW Eighth St., two women were recently arrested and charged with soliciting for prostitution. Arrested were Candy Lyons, 24 and Mildred Faith Norwood, 22. Leah Russel, 54, of 7701 SW 78th Ct., told police that on Oct. 5 between 11 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. someone broke into her home and removed a television set and jewelry. Two men are being sought in connection with the armed robbery and kidnapping of Kelley Cauarb, 24, that occurred Oct. 7 at 5:40 a.m. Ms. Cauarb told police that as she pulled into the parking lot of a restaurant at SW 75th Ave- West Dade nue and Bird Road, a man ordered her at gunpoint to drive to an isolated area of South Dade. They were followed by the man's companion in another vehicle. When they stopped, the men struck Ms. Cauarb several times in the face, took her money and fled. Ms. Cauarb is in fair condition at a local hospital. Another tire slashing has been reported police in West Dade, this time by Israel Petrovsky, 6740 SW 18th St., who told police that two of his car's tires were slashed. Petrovsky lives in the same area that last week reported more than 30 tire slashings to police. Noreen Schneider, 18, of 12821 SW 43rd Dr., reported to police that between 9:30 p.m. and 1:20 a.m., Oct. 4, and 5, someone pried out her front window screen and her poodle was missing. She later found the poodle roaming the streets. Mathes Guice, 30, of 9856 SW Eighth St., told police that between Sept. 30, and Oct. 4, someone entered his home and took $1,500 from a brown folder. No signs of forced entry were found. Isadore Master, of 8441 SW 37th St., told police that between 9:30 p.m. and 5 a.m. Oct. 3 and 4, someone took four staghorn ferns, valued at $75, from his yard.

Charges may surface at Trial Board hearing

From Page 1 taken place, in addition to Rossey's home, include the sisters' Navarre Avenue apartment, in both police and private vehicles parked near the Biltmore Golf Course, on the Biltmore grounds, and on the beach at Fisher Island. Wardy and Fisher, either personally or through their attorney, will have an opportunity to challenge Gainer's charges at a city administrative hearing scheduled for Monday, Oct. 11, at 7:30 p.m. in commission chambers on the second floor of city hall. Trial Board hearing dates for Rossey and Lawrence Carastro, who was not mentioned in connection with the Hoxoll sisters, have not yet been set. Gainer and police officials aren't saying how they came by the information, regarding Wardy and Fisher's alleged acts with the Hoxoll sisters, but a source close to the case indicated that either one or both of the girls may have supplied the information. If that is true, Gina and Geri Hoxoll may well be in attendance at Monday's Trial Board hearing. However, another source speculated that information regarding the officers' reportedly illicit on-duty activities may have come from the 15-year-old girl all four suspended men are alleged to have had sexual relations with.

'Gives you something to do with hands'

From Page 1 so I found a nut with a big bolt and put it on his desk without telling him what I was doing. "Sure enough, when the telephone rang, he picked it up and started fiddling with it. He didn't even notice what he was doing for a week." Brown decided to see if a patenting company would go for his idea and sent a description of it to the Raymond Lee Organizaton, Inc. "They called me and said when they first read my idea they just laughed, but then they realized it might have some merit," said Brown. The kit will also contain a booklet of suggestions on how to quit smoking and a wall chart to record progress. "This kit is not supposed to make you stop," Brown said. "It's just to help break the habit. A lot of people could use the help, I think." The kit has not been marketed yet, but when it is, it will probably sell in department stores and drug stores for under $5, Brown said. "We haven't worked all that out yet." He hopes to see the kit on the market before next June. And although his primary motivation in patenting it was money, he is glad it is the kind of thing that might help a lot of people. He was a little leery about sending his invention in at first, though. "A long time ago, I figured out a device that would tell you how much mileage you were getting in your car as you were driving a long," he said. "I sent it to a company in California and they wrote back and said they couldn't help me. Then two years later, I saw almost the same device for sale in a car magazine. The address you sent to for it was the same place in California."
