Now You Know Ounce for ounce, the most ferocious of all mammals is the tiny shrew, which kills and eats twice its weight in food every day. hometo fo su By Jim Michels Daily Journal Staff Writer Visions of warm days on tropical beaches, have a Bonne Terre girl anxiously waiting for this summer to roll around. Kathleen Basler, 18, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Russell Basler and a senior at North County High School, was selected earlier this month as one of 16 4-H members from Missouri for a month long stay this summer in Trinidad.

It may seem like a long time between now and June 23 when she departs for the island, which is located off the coast of Venezuala. She says she is looking forward to spending a month with two families she hasn't met in a place she's never been to before. "She will be living as a member of the family there," said Martin Johns, youth specialist with the University of Missouri. Extension Service. "The families there take them and feed them while they are there.

It's the same thing we do here." The visit to the foreign country will not aides which have not been made public. He said one conversation between Nixon and Charles Colson "revealed something about some of his other activities, some of his staff members and some of his own reactions to things." Jaworski said while the conversation did not relate to Watergate, "they related to some things I'm sure he wasn't proud of. I know I wasn't as an American citizen." Last year, following the publication of his book, "The Right And The Power," Jaworski said the Nixon-Colson conversations reminded him of "two ward heelers talking in the rear room of a neighborhood dive." Jaworski, 71, said his reaction to the Nixon interviews will appear in a national publication.

The gun Poole is shown toting is the same one nor- mally kept inside for its special purpose, UPI photo Proposals on energy finalized WASHINGTON (UPI) The deadline has been extended twice, but White House energy staffers think they have finally finished writing all the legislative details needed to turn President Carter's energy policy into reality. There was an all-out push by the President's energy team Thursday to polish each proposed law into final form and get the package ready to send Congress today. Lawmakers planned to take it up next week and predicted sharp fights over such controversial issues as the gasoline tax. Efforts to draft legislation for the energy plan, which Carter outlined for Congress and the nation April 20, fell more than a week behind original schedules. Administration sources said the initial deadlines first April 20, then April 25 -proved impossibly optimistic.

Members of the White House energy staff predicted they would meet today's deadline, although with difficulty. "There's a real crunch on," one said Thursday. Other members of the President's energy staff neared the end of an equally frenzied effort to produce a 100-page book detailing in everyday terms Carter's policy and its impact. The completed legislative package was expected to differ little from outlines given last week by Carter and energy chief James Schlesinger, which included tax credits for conservation and tax penalties for gas-guzzling cars and for excessive gasoline consumption. Several sources said delays in completing the legislation have been caused by the need to spell out nuts-and-bolts details on such issues as how to rebate new energy taxes to consumers.

On Capitol Hill, two House committees planned hearings next week on Carter's proposals. State at ST. LOUIS (UPI) The mother of a 14-year-old hockey player barred for fighting has filed suit seeking an injunction lifting the suspension. Mary Ledgerwood filed the suit in St Louis County Circuit Court on behalf of her son, Michael, a former player with the Clayton Gold Division Bantam team. Michael was suspended from play in the Missouri Amateur Ice Hockey Association because of fights last fall.

ST. LOUIS (UPI) Verne A. Lyon, who claimed he was an undercover agent for the was sentenced to 15 years in prison Thursday for placing a bomb that exploded in the terminal at Lambert Field in 1966.

Lyon, who fled the country after the bombing and was brought back from Peru earlier this year, was convicted April 13. He made no statement before being sentenced by U.S. District Judge John K. Regan. Lyon indicated a bomb placed in a shoe box that broke windows at the terminal may have been related to his CIA connection.

CIA officials denied Lyon had anything to do with the agency. Lyon, 33, also faces a charge of interstate flight to avoid prosecution. ST. LOUIS (UPI) An Arizona woman whose husband shot and killed himself after a standoff with police in Kennett last month was indicted by a federal grand jury Thursday on charges of aiding and abetting kidnaping and auto theft Charlotte Bates was charged in the incident involving her husband, John David Bates, who escaped from custody at a Phoenix hospital, kidnaped a nurse from Tucson and held off police for 12 hours in a motel room before shooting himself in the head. The indictment replaces an earlier charge of kidnaping against Mrs.

Bates, who faces possible penalties of 10 years in prison and a $10,000 fine if convicted on the aiding and abetting charge. CHICAGO (UPI) The main event in Cook County Criminal Court Thursday was Judge James Bailey, 43, 5-11 and 205 pounds, vs. Donald Jackson, 25, 6-2 and 180 pounds. It was no contest. The judge pinned the contender on the first fall.

Bailey had just ordered Jackson, charged with armed robbery, to undergo further psychiatric tests. Jackson didnt like that, Bailey said, and began tearing up the courtroom. "He grabbed the court recorder's stenography machine and threw it toward the jury box," the judge said. After turning over several tables, Jackson "grabbed my name plate, a very heavy name plate, and threw it, at Thousands to Truman's INDEPENDENCE (UPI) Thousands of persons are expected to visit Harry S.

Jaworski says he has information on deeds Nixon "wasnt proud of" and he will reveal it if Nixon does not admit he obstructed justice in the White House.

When asked if he would reveal Nixon's role in Watergate if the former president did not do so in the interviews, Jaworski said, "Yes, I intend to." The former special prosecutor said he does not expect Nixon to face up to charges jf abusing his office in the interview and will try instead to shift the blame. "I have the feeling, between you and me, that he's going to lay a lot of this off on his staff," Jaworski said.
