Vice President Spiro T. Ag-; new was in Washington Friday but scheduled visits to Detroit and Palm Springs, Calif. tj today. Shriver said the Nixon administration's black capital-' ism program has failed to' reach any of those who really need help.

President Nixon's assessment of the major issues as he interpreted them from a presidential news conference Thursday. He said it was "just an outrage" to list amnesty and busing ahead of the Vietnam war, unemployment, inflation and crime.

Nixon spent most of Friday at the White House, then went to his Camp David retreat in Maryland, where he will deliver a campaign radio speech Saturday. Democratic vice presidential nominee Sargent Shriver was in Los Angeles, where he said the nation's black community is "in the midst not of Three local political novices have joined together to form a new political party and challenge candidates in the established Democratic and Republican Parties for public office. Mrs. Carolyn Meinel Hen-son, Mrs. Mary Janet "Jinx" Damon, and Johnny W.

Bow-ens are running for legislative offices on the Good Neighbors Union (GNU) ticket. Mrs. Henson, 26, of 1134 E. Lester is running for the District 12 Senate seat. She is the only opposition for incumbent Republican Sen.

Douglas Holsclaw. Mrs. Damon is running for a House seat in the same district. The incumbent in that district is Republican Rep. Peter Hershber-ger, and the other Republican candidate is Tom Goodwin.

Democrats Martin Bedford and Jim Magner are also seeking the two seats. Bowens will be seeking one of the District 11 offices along with incumbent Democratic Rep. Bob Fricks, Democrat Emilio Carrillo, and Republicans Alfred S. "Skip" Donau and Jim Madson. The three were originally members of the New Party but were unable to get on the state ballot with the New Party, so they formed GNU (pronounced 'new').

Bowens, 26, of 839 E. Linden director of cultural activities at Pima College, said the three GNU candidates' platform is based on "human needs and desires." While the Party CAROLYN HENSON the state, Mrs. Damon said. She also pledged to support family planning in all areas and to work for the legalization of abortion and the repeal of the farm labor bill. Mrs.

Henson is a housewife and tre mother of two children and says her major plank is solar power. She said the country is going to need solar power eventually, "even if we're willing to put up with pollution and increased costs of producing electricity." She said she would be "utterly pleased" if other politicians "stole the solar power issue from me." Another area Mrs. Henson said she would work in if elected would be to remove many of the existing statutes from the books. She said she objects to laws that, for instance, prohibit people from selling vegetables from their own gardens and the "har-rassment and hassle" involved with small technicalities in setting up a small Inmate Freed In Ambush Of Guards CHINO, Calif. (AP) Two unarmed guards transporting a prisoner were shot Friday by assailants who forced their car off the road and fled with the.

prisoner, officials said. One guard was killed. Authorities said the assailants obviously had prior word of the court appearance and had set up an ambush using two other cars. They speculated that the assailants were friends of the prisoner. The court date the prisoner was to have kept had been postponed, officials said, but somehow the guards failed to get the word.

The assailants apparently fired through the open front driver's window at the driver, who was wounded, and killed the second officer, who was in the back seat sitting next to the shackled prisoner. Officials said it was routine for the two guards to be unarmed and that the prisoner had been under tight restraint in the marked white guard car with handcuffs and a chain around his waist. An all-points bulletin was issued for the two or three men who accosted the guard car, plus the escaped prisoner, identified as Ronald Warren Beaty, 35. Officers described Beaty as dangerous, with a previous record that included armed robbery. The guards were taking Beaty to nearby San Bernardino for a hearing on a grand jury indictment related to a previous escape.

Authorities didn't disclose details. Beaty was convicted recently in federal court of kidnaping, officials said. 'JINX' DAMON three candidates agree on the goals set by each other if elected, they each say they have their own special areas of concern. Bowens is currently working towards a masters degree in urban planning at the University of Arizona. Bowens' two special areas of concern are prison reform and a relevant education system.

The graduate of Dillard University in New Orleans, believes that the entire Arizona prison system needs to be revamped, with much more emphasis placed on rehabilitative programs and humane treatment of prisoners. He said he believes three-fourths of the people in prisons today shouldn't be there JOHNNY BOWENS because the were convicted of "victimless crimes" gambling, using drugs, etc. Students should receive quality education no matter where they live, Bowens said. The candidate said he would like to see an end to the financing of schools by property taxes and suggested use taxes on mines and increased tobacco and liquor taxes to support the schools. Mrs.

Damon is the wife of Paul Damon, a geosciences professor at the University of Arizona. They have two sons and live at 2321 E. Hawthorne St. Mrs. Damon is interested in more bicycle paths, equal-rights representation legislation, the repeal of the food tax, victimless crimes and the enforcement of air pollution standards.

She is a member of the Arizona Civil Liberties Union, the Consumers Council and tre Arizona League of Woman Voters. Taxes collected for financing the schools should be distributed equally throughout Man Shot In Drug Seizure Six Arrested In Pot Case A 22-year-old man was undergoing surgery last night at Pima County hospital to remove a bullet from his left shoulder after he was shot by a Metropolitan Area narcotics agent. Daniel Cadrial, who refused to tell police his address, was shot during the arrest of six persons in connection with an alleged drug sale late last night at 1216 W. River Rd. Officers said Cadrial apparently nudged a gun in one of the narcotics agent's hands while the agent was frisking him, causing it to go off and wound him.

Two narcotics agents reported they were negotiating a large buy of marijuana with the six persons inside the house. When the agents showed money, some of the persons began to surround them. The agents said they identified themselves and drew their pistols and confiscated two snub-nosed revolvers, and later found another gun in the house. Booked into Pima County Jail on charges of conspiracy to sell narcotics were Larry G. Loftis, 23, of 3215 N.

Win-stel Clayton E. Free, 19, of Route 1, Box 835S, Philip Q. Garcia, 19, of Marana; William B. Peckham, 21, of 1720 W. 33rd and a juvenile girl.

Cadrial will be booked when he leaves the hospital. Officers arrested two other persons in connection with the incident at the Winstel address, Charles K. Porter, 21, of 741 S. Kenyon Drive and Deborah D. Peckham, 31, of 1721 W.

33rd and two others In the vicinity of Fort Lowell Road and Country Club Bruce A. Campbell, 19, of 1725 Avenida Regulo, and Alan Stevens, 52, of 1201 E. Grant Rd. Twelve to 15 narcotics officers participated in the arrests.

But he said he doubts it will. McGovern responded to Saigon reports, denied by the administration that a new peace plan calling for total U.S. withdrawal and the resignation of President Nguyen Van Thieu will be offered by the United States before the Nov. 7 U.S. presidential election.

The Democratic presidential nominee said that if a Vietnam settlement does come on those terms now and "if Mr. Nixon can turn it into votes, I'll gladly sacrifice this election if we can end this war one day earlier." McGovern said that if "it costs me the election to end the war, that's a small price to pay." McGovern made his comments in Chicago, where he made a speech, held two news conferences and taped interviews. McGovern will make a televised nationwide address Tuesday at 7:30 p.m. The program will be televised in Tucson over KOLD-TV, Channel 13. He will speak on "America and the War." McGovern most of his Friday aimed political fire at Birds Still Caged BRASILIA (AP) Brazil's Supreme Court rejected a plea to free all the country's birds from cages and zoos.

He considers it part of a normal day's work. As an employe of a waste recycling firm called LERN (Let's Recycle Newspapers), Strickler will make the 500-mile trip with glass donated here that day.

It is the first time LERN will be accepting glass for recycling. Strickler believes this is Tucson's first program ever for recycling glass. LERN has issued an urgent appeal to Tucsonans to bring their clear, brown and dark green glass to the LERN collection point, 2430 E. 6th from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Sunday, and each Sunday thereafter. Strickler said people should remove all metal collars, tops and corks. Labels may remain on. People can also bring neatly stacked newspapers and tin and aluminum cans that have been squashed and separated. Strickler's job pays but not well.

Last week he was able to pocket $37. That's about twice what he and the company's three other employes made twx weeks ago. In a normal day they work about fourteen hours. Also on the payroll are Fletcher's brother, Wayne, Bob Say-lor, LERN's accountant and business manager, and Sharon Gar-no, the company artist in charge of display advertising. The LERN started about two months ago, was founded on a novel principle of enlisting subscribers to pay $12 a year to have their paper and metal waste picked up regularly.

The company has signed up 360 families to date, Strickler said. The concept of recycling waste is not a new one, but LERN is so far the only Tucson collecting agency with any continuity. Strickler said he and his partners are eyeing the market potential in several outlying communities. LERN does not do its own recycling but Strickler said they are investigating the possibility of investing in equipment which could reclaim metals from cans and cullett from used glass. "Tucson is slow to catch on to new ideas," Strickler said, "but people are just beginning to see that if they aren't part of the solution to our pollution crisis, they're part of the problem."

SATURDAY ONLY Excellent singing, beautiful costumes and handsome sets marked the Tucson Opera Company's production of Verdi's "La Traviata" at the Tucson Community Center's music hall last night On a night filled with a hockey game, high school football games and other crowd-consuming events, nearly 1,900 Tucsonans showed up to hear the grand opera. Karen Lovejoy was beautiful as the ill-fated Violetta who died for love. Her voice was excellent as she soared through the difficult arias, "Ah fors' lui" (Was this man my fancy) and "Simpre Libre" (Shall I always freely ranging, run the course of my career). She is the heart and soul of the opera and she gave the Tucson production both.

She was as handsome in appearance as she was in voice. The production marked Igor Gorin's first operatic appearance in Tucson. Tucsonans have heard the baritone in recitals and in concert, but this was the first time they had seen him in such a production. He gave the difficult role of the elder Germont a velvet hardness much in keeping with the modern interpretation of the character. Years ago, the elder Germont was played as a stiff, unyielding father, who could not understand that love is more inDortant than position and money.
