Brown handles
drug questions
BRUSH--Some 40 persons
greeted U.S. Rep. Hank Brown, R-
Greeley, with tough questions rang-
ing from world trade to social secu-
rity reforms to drug enforcement laws
at a town meeting held Saturday at
Morgan Community College's
Bloedorn Lecture Hall.
B row n said that foreign aid to brace
economic struggles was not a satis-
factory solution to Poland and other
Eastern European countries seeking
sweeping political reforms.
"In looking at our federal budget I
don't see a lot of room for new for-
eign aid," Brown said.
Brown said he believes that coun-
tries seeking to build new govern-
ments could seek international mone-
tary funds from the World Bank.
Also, Brown said the countries
would find greater strength if they
could build independent funds
through the private sector.
Brown, who is running for the U.S.
Senate seat being vacated by Senator
he believed the federal government
should continue fighting drug abuse,
especially against drugs which trig-
ger violent reactions.
Brown said that even if America
succeeded in sealing off drug trade
;along its borders, America would still
have an abundance of drugs.
"The real challenge will come when
it is no longer socially acceptable to
use drugs," Brown said.
He said he believed that major drug
dealers who directly cause a death to
occur should be given the death pen-
alty. - News-Tribune, March 7,1990
Schmidt found guilty
on all four counts
By Anthony Rayl
YUMA--The Akron day-care cen-
ter sexual assault case finally came to
an end last week when former Yuma
resident Philip Schmidt was found
guilty on all four counts of molesting
children at his grandmother's home.
The jury, consisting of seven
women and five men, deliberated for
7-1/2 hours before settling on their
verdict Thursday. Sexual assault on
a child is a Class-3 felony. Each
count is punishable by up to 16 years
in prison. Pueblo District Judge
Dennis Macs set sentencing for April
12.
The verdict closes the three-year
case. It all began in 1987 when a two-
year-old boy told his mother he had
been molested by Schmidt at Hazel
Riggs' day-care home in Akron. Two
little girls from the center mid they
were molested by Schmidt and his
brother, Michael Schmidt.
Michael Schmidt was found guilty
on similar charges in Denver District
Court last August and is serving a
four-year prison sentence. Hazel
Riggs pleaded guilty in September to
giving false information to investiga-
tors. She received a deferred sen-
tence and has moved from Akron. -

mcnt to balance the federal budget.
"We spend more money on th
poor than any country in the history
of the world, but yet that is only 15
percent of the national budget." he
said.
Brown said that responses from a
recent survey of his constituents
showed that 70 percent said they
favored the balanced budget amend-
ment.
Another issue Brown tackled was
the currentwaron drugs. Brown said
schedule, Haigler Elementary stu-
dents will startoffthe 1990-91 school
year in a new school building.
According to Doug Nollette, Su-
perintendent of Schools for the Dundy
County school system, a decision was
made in 1985 when Haigler School
and Dandy County School consoli-
dated, to leave the elementary stu-
dents in Haigler and build a new
school.
Bids for the new building were re-
cently submitted by four bidders,
including Rockwell Building Corpo-
ration of Wray, who submitted the
low bid of $313,221. Other bids
included League Builders Supply of
McCook, Nebr. for $342,000; Paulsen
Building Supply of Cozad, Nebr. for
$373,700; and Rhoade Construction
of Goodland, Kans. for $379,000.
During a board meeting Feb. 28,
representatives of Rockwell Build-
ing and school officials made some
changes and adjustments to bring the
bid down to just over $299,000.
The new 5,700 square foot struc-
ture, designed by Joseph Hewgley &
Associates of North Platte, Nebr.,
will contain four classrooms, a li-
brary and art area, a resource room,
offices and restrooms.
The bid provides for construction
of the new building, demolition of
the present classroom building and
remodeling a iockerroom into a
kitchen. The gym will remain in use.

Three arrested
for burglary, trespass
AKRON---Officers of the Wash-
ington County Sheriff's Office ar-
rested three men, one from Akron,
last week on charges of second de-
gree burglary.
Larry Martin Silvey of Russell
Springs, Ken., 44; John Henry Marrs
of Stafford, Ken., 49; and Herman
Ray Jest of Akron, 62; were arrested
Feb. 28 after a call was received at the
Sheriff's office from an unidentified
"concerned citizen," according to
Sheriff Bill Wood. The caller said
that a pickup had been spotted in the
yard of an unoccupied house at 25946
Highway 63, about 15 miles south of
Akron.
On their arrival at the house, offi-
cers found that a forced entry had
been made into the house. It was also
discovered that the lock to the kitchen
door had been removed and replaced
with a new lock.
The pickup was later spotted by
one of the deputies, and he and an-
other deputy contacted the vehicle's
occupants in a farm yard at 17201
County Road 33.
Silvey, Marrs and Jest were ar-
rested and taken to the Washington
County jail in Akron.
Silvey and Jest both said that Marrs
had changed the lock on the kitchen
door. Although the house and the
land are currently tied up in federal
bankruptcy court, Marrs claims to
have leased the house from Coral
Silvey. According to Washington
County Sheriff Bill Wood, the house
is leased by Leon Winenger of Ak-
ron. - News-Reporter, March 8,1990

John E Bruce
John Frederick Bruce was bum on
December 27,1941 in Denver, Colo.,
the son of Wallace and Josephine
Bruce.
John attended elementary and high
school in Haxtun, and graduated from
Haxtun High in 1959. He received
his degree in business administra-
tion from the University of Colorado
in Boulder. While he was in college
he was influenced and became ac-
tive in the ministry of Campus Cru-
sade for Christ.
After graduation from the Univer-
sity, John entered the ministry of
Campus Crusade for Christ on a full
time basis in Arrowhead Springs,
Calif. He began a ministry with the
youth wl-e at Arrowhead Springs.
Later, John accepted an assignment
as registrar for the Mexican Campus
Crusade headquarters in Curnavaoa,
Mex. He brought a young man,
Fernando Sandoval, home to Haxtun
with him from Mexico one summer,
to stay with his family to learn Eng-
lish.
John completed his work in Mex-
ico and returned to San Bernadino,
Calif., where he continued his minis-
try with young people.
It was while he was working in
San Bernadino that he met his wife
Marilyn. They were married on
December 27,1969 and shortly there-
after left California to establish their
new home in Gadsen, Alabama. John
was high school director for Campus
Crusade in Gadsen. Their son Eric
was born on June 17, 1971 while
they served in Alabama.
The Bruce family left Gadsen in
1972 to work in Dallas for Campus
Crusade's Explo 72. After Explo 72
John and his family left the ministry
of Campus Crusade for Christ and
accepted the position of youth direc-
tor of Ocean Beach Baptist Church in
San Diego, Calif.
John and his family moved to Phila-
delphia in 1976 where John com-
pleted his seminary training at East-
em Baptist Seminary. Michael was
born while they were living in Phila-
delphia on November 1, 1978. After
completing his seminary studies the
family accepted the position of asso-
ciate pastor of the First Baptist Church
of Santa Barbara, Calif.
In 1985 the family moved to San
Francisco where he had ministered to
the people of Sunset Baptist Church.
A notation in John's bible reads as
follows: "The test of a man's ministry
is not popularity (Matt. 24:11), nor
miraculous signs and wonders, (Matt.
24:24) but rather by his faithfulness
to the Work of God (1 Tim. 4:6)".
John died at home on Sunday,
March 4, 1990. He was preceded in
death by his mother Josephine who
died on October 28, 1985 and his fa-
ther Wallace who passed away on
October 4, 1989.
John is survived by his wife Mari-
lyn, San Francisco, Calif.; his two
sons Eric and Michael; his sisters
Joan, Barbara and Carol; his brother
Bob; and the many others who were
touched by his life and ministry.
