Suspect held in Lennon shooting

NEW YORK (UPI) - John

Lennon, leader of the Beatles whose music defined the 1960s, was slain in front of his home Monday night by a “wacko” who had begged for his autograph hours before.

Police arrested a suspect in the shooting, and said Tuesday they feared for his safety in a city filled with grief- Stricken fans of the singer.

Lennon, 40, was shot five times as he walked - with his wife Yoko Ono from his limousine to the door of the Dakota, and exclusive Manhattan

apartment building on Central Park West where the couple lived.

Police arrested Mark David Chapman, 25, of Honolulu, Hawaii, and charged him with the slaying. A motive for the shooting was

not im- mediately known. “IT just shot John Lennon,” witnesses

quoted Chapman =§§ as saying after Lennon fell.

Police, fearing for the suspect's safety, were keeping Chapman's whereabouts secret Tuesday morning, refusing to disclose when he was being held or processed.

WARSAW, Poland (UPI) - Poland's official army newspaper charged the country’s independent labor movement with threatening national defense and Washington warned against any Soviet

invasion — with = or without a Polish = in- vitahion.

“We would have to see what the facts are, but | think we would be very unapt to accept a Soviet intervention in the guise of some sort of an in- vitauon” from the Polish

government, spokesman John Trattner said.

Poland's leading Zycie Warszawy newspaper accused the Western media of an “hystencal campaign’ over possible Sovietintervention,

LOUCKS' MID-TERM ADDRESS

Low Level road runs into problems

The City of North Van- couver is encountering dif- ficulties negotiating an agreement with the Squamish Indian band for a route through their lands for the Low Level road, accor- ding to Mayor Jack Loucks.

Loucks made the an- nouncement during his mid- term address at the inaugural meeting of council, an ad- dress dominated by a warn- ing of higher taxes facing Ci- ty residents.

In his speech Loucks said that reaching a decision on the final route of the Low Level road was “another ma- jor task for this council.”

Two options were available, he said, negotiating a route through the Squamish lands or using Third Street from Forbes Avenue to Bewicke Avenue as part of the Low Level road.

FRANK BAKER'S ATTIC

NO ONE’S MOR! IMPORTANT

So be good to yourself ~

In a departure from his published speech, Loucks said that negotialing a route through Indian lands “is pro- ving difficult.”

“A further step in the development of this route should take place in 1981.” Loucks said, “this being the construction of a bridge over McKay Creek and the ap- proaches to it.”

“This would permit motorists to travel the lower route from Park Royal South, through Fell Avenue.” When this is com- pleted it will take some of the traffic pressure off Marine Drive

The rest of Loucks’ speech was optomistuic as he spoke of the accomplishments of City council this vear and the outlook for 1981.

An early decision regar- ding the Tempe Heights area so that the land could be
