River Tucson, Arizona 85718 or Nurestra Senora de la Asucion, Huasabas, Sonora, Mexico. The Spider-Man Web-Blaster shoots a sticky web of silly string with the flick of the wrist By Inger Sandal ARIZONA DAILY STAR just like the comic book superhero. It has generated nearly $22 million in sales worldwide since it hit toy stores a few years ago. Stephen E. Kimble, a Tucson inventor and attorney, maintains that he and his son invented the toy a decade ago.

But attorneys for Toy Biz the New York firm that markets Spider-Man toys, say Stan Lee did that when he created SpiderMan in 1962. A jury could decide by week's end whether Kimble had a contract with Toy Biz and whether it was breached. Both sides kept boxes of the toy as well as stacks of legal documents on their desks yesterday as trial started in U.S. District Court. "It looks like a toy store in this courtroom," the affable Kimble told jurors as he faced a team of Toy Biz attorneys who sat in front of a life-size SpiderMan cutout.

Kimble told jurors that he and his son, then 12, developed the idea one day while playing with silly string at home. The father and his son, who loved SpiderMan, spent hours working together on the idea of a glove that fires silly string. Kimble filed for a patent on the invention and he and his then Susan CardilloEmerich pitched the idea to the president of Toy Biz in New York City in 1990. Although the CRIME Candidates with records come clean Continued from Page B1 but two driver's licenses: one real, the other fake. Paton returned to Pima County Justice Court in March 1998 and successfully petitioned Justice of the Peace Robert Gibson to set aside his conviction.

"I wanted to have a clean record," he said. "I'm running for office." Paton said he never had a chance to use his fake ID before it was confiscated. And the girlfriend? "She dumped me," he said. Jack Strasburg, a Green Party candidate for the state House in District 10, was convicted April 28 of disorderly conduct and trespassing charges. He was arrested Dec.

4 after he and other protesters interrupted the corporate meeting of Peabody Coal Co. at the Westin La Paloma Resort. Strasburg, who has appealed the Justice Court conviction to Pima County Superior Court, said he was merely trying to break up a fight between one of his fellow protesters and someone attending the meeting. ASSAULT Border agent held in incident with migrant Continued from Page BI with the suspect." Johnson then drove the woman to a spot near the port of entry in Naco, and left her there, Capas said. The woman apparently stayed in the country because she was apprehended by another Border Patrol agent, whom she told of the incident.

Agents then' notified the Justice Department's Office of Inspector General an internal investigation agency whose agents called the Cochise County Sheriff's Department. Those investigators worked to track down the suspect agent this weekend before obtaining an arrest warrant for Johnson. The FBI, which has a civil rights unit, is also looking into the case. It's similar to an alleged incident that came to light Aug. 21.

That day, Nogales police arrested Border Patrol agent Matthew Hemmer. They accused him of driving a 22-year-old Mexican woman to a remote area and sexually assaulting her. He is also charged with sexual abuse and kidnapping. toy executive was excited about his idea, he was concerned the timing wasn't right because a child had recently been badly burned when silly string was fired across a lighted birthday cake, Kimble said. But the couple left New York elated because the president told them they would work out a payment if the idea later turned out to be feasible.

"We had a deal," Kimble said. Kimble and Cardillo-Emerich found a silly string that wasn't flammable and continued to send letters to Toy Biz, Lee and Marvel Entertainment Group, the company that owns SpiderMan. "Things didn't seem to be happening for months and months," Kimble said. Kimble's device received its U.S. patent in 1991, but he got a rejection letter from Toy Biz the next year.

In 1993, Toy Biz debuted an electronic toy glove called the Web Shooter, which launched darts. It sold for a couple years then "pretty much ran its course," Kimble said. Then in 1996 Toy Biz debuted the Web-Blaster, which consisted of straps that could attach to the Web Shooter glove, and included a special size of silly string. Kimble, who maintains that the toy "is virtually identical" to his creation, filed suit in 1997. He took the stand in his own trial before lunch yesterday.

"What this case is really about is a lawyer who wants something for said Toy Biz attorney Laura Krabill. "I'm proud of doing it," he said of his arrest, though he denies committing any crime. "I think it makes me more qualified for office because at some point, I stood up for what I believed in." William Zaffer Daniel Patterson, a Green Party candidate for the District 11 Senate seat, was arrested last week and charged with disorderly conduct and resisting arrest during a downtown protest of the North American Free Trade Agreement. He denies committing any crimes but says he's not concerned about kicking off his campaign with a misdemeanor arrest. "It had to do with representing political views that a lot of people share," he said.

"(Protesting) is a time honored piece of the American political process." Mary "Katie" Bolger, Green Party candidate for the House in District 14, was convicted a decade ago of marijuana possession after Prescott police found a small bag of the drug in her car. She said police stopped to Johnson also faces charges of kidnapping and sexual assault. While the investigation of Johnson continues, the victim, whose name has not been released, is being housed at an undisclosed location in Cochise County, Capas said. Johnson joined the patrol more than four years ago, said George Lopez, assistant chief of the Border Patrol's Tucson Sector, which includes the Arizona border from New Mexico to Yuma County. Lopez said that because the agent had just been arrested, he did not know what action the agency would take to discipline Johnson.

Under normal procedures, the agent is placed on administrative leave with pay. Both Lopez and investigators said the arrest is not a sign of widespread wrongdoing in the Border Patrol, but rather a sign of good internal controls. "I think it shows that the der Patrol, Inspector General's Office and FBI are very vigilant in looking at matters of misconduct," said William King special agent in charge of the inspector general's Tucson office. Border Patrol policy requires agents to report in when male agents are transporting female migrants. The agents are supposed to report the time, the mileage and the number of females on board.

"There are policies in place that safeguard against this type The Web-Blaster is significantly different from Kimble's, device and was developed within the company in 1995, she said. after spraying silly string in the newly completed federal courthouse to demonstrate the toy. She also introduced the jury. to Spider-Man. "Spider-Man is one of the oldest and most popular of comic: book characters," she said.

Lee created 1 the character of nerdy high school kid who. gained superhuman strength and wall-crawling abilities after. he was bitten by a radioactive spider. The "science nerd" then invented a web shooter that is activated by a trigger held in the palm, she said. Lee gave a statement to' lawyers for the trial but will not appear to testify.

U.S. District Judge Raner Collins polled prospective jurors on their Spider-Man knowledge in addition to their experience with contracts. Few expressed any interest in the costumed web-slinger. Collins excused two would-be jurors who said a weeklong trial would be a hardship on their jobs working with children one was a teacher and the other a pediatrician. "Do you know anything about Spider-Man," Collins asked the pediatrician before letting him leave.

"Just what I've read in comic books," the doctor deadpanned. Contact Inger Sandal at 573- 4241 or at check on her as she repaired a flat tire along the side of the road. They learned she was wanted for an unpaid traffic ticket, and their subsequent search of her car revealed the marijuana, she said. "It was something I'd rather forget. I was going to school at the time, I was like 20 years old it was a lapse of judgment," she said.

"I can't say I'm ashamed of what happened, but I wish it didn't happen." Toni Hellon, a Republican running for the District 12 Senate seat, was fined $25 in May 1991 for allowing her dog to run loose without wearing license tags. The animal in question, a medium-sized keeshond named Becca, ran and barked at a neighbor before Hellon retrieved her. The neighbor complained to authorities, Hellon was cited and the dog was released on its own recognizance. "She's paid to bark when people are on her street," Hellon said of Becca. "That's exactly what she did." Contact Joe Salkowski at 573- 4243 or at On StarNet: Read more of the Star's SN election coverage: www.azstarnet.com/ of occurrence," King said.

Johnson "violated Border Patrol policy in several instances." Lopez added that the way the allegation came to light should instill confidence. "The allegations came to us by way of the migrant, showing. that the safeguards that we havein place allowed us to take immediate action. The Border Patrol's immediate notification of. all the proper authorities ensures that all issues and concerns are addressed in a timely and professional manner," Lopez said.

But Ron Sanders, a former chief of the Tucson Sector, thinks there may be deeper problems. He said yesterday's arrest, along with others recently, shows a lack of concern for integrity on the part of the INS, of which Border Patrol is a part. One of Sanders' main concerns is that the office conductbackground checks on Border Patrol recruits doesn't do an adequate job. As chief, a position he held until July last year, Sanders argued that the INS should conduct its own background checks, rather than have the federal Office of Personnel Management hire out the job.
