ANN ARBOR, Mich. (UPI) -
All night, General Motors
executive William Schulenberg
feared for the lives of his
family, kidnaped by three
tough-talking gunmen. Then —
unharmed — they came home,
freed by the payment of $54,000.
“It was an unnerving ex
perience,” said Schulenberg
Tuesday. "I never want to do
that again.”
The three youthful kidnapers,
one described as “just a kid,”
were still free today.
The 13-hour drama began
about 9:30 p.m. Monday when
the gunmen broke into the
Schulenberg home in an exclu
sive neighborhood and demand
ed money.
Schulenberg, 48, manager of
the GM Hydramatic division
plant at nearby Ypsilanti, said
the men were “rough and tough
for the first 10 or 15 minutes.
They started with some ridicu
lous figures.”
“I had the feeling they must
have wanted publicity,” he
said.
He told them he had no
money in the house.
The gunmen then took his
wife, Ruth, and their sons, Bill,
11, Jeff, 15, and Bob, 16, and
jammed them in the trunk of
Schulenberg’s company-owned
car.
Two of the men drove away.
The third stayed with Schulen
berg, who began trying to raise
the ransom by calling friends,
police said.
Mrs. Schulenberg said she
complained, at one point, about
a lack of air in the trunk, so
one of the men lifted the lid
and shot three holes into it.
Schulenberg, meanwhile, ar
ranged for his boss to pick up
the ransom money from an Ann
Arbor bank.
Schulenberg said he spent
most of the night with his
captor watching television,
while the two accomplices
called off and on.
“In fact, one time I had to
wake him up to answer the
phone,” Schulenberg said.
Police were notified, but did
not move in immediately out of
fear for the victims’ lives.
Schulenberg’s wife and two
sons were returned just before
the ransom was paid, and the
third son returned home on foot
three hours later.
“I have no idea why they
chose me,” Schulenberg said.

Youthful offender program
called miscarriage of justice
ATLANTA (UPI) - The
Georgia Department of Correc
tion’s Youthful Offender Pro
gram has constituted a
“miscarriage of justice” and
“drastic measures” are needed
to salvage the program, a state
Board of Pardons and Paroles
report has concluded.
Details of the confidential
report, written by the parole
board’s top two youthful offend
er coordinators, were published
Wednesday in the Atlanta
Constitution.
The report charged that the
Corrections Department misled
the public in its claim that only
5 per cent of youthful offenders
have returned to prison since
the program’s inception in 1972.
The report said almost half the
650 persons released since July
1972 under the program were
released between January and
July 1975.
“The Youthful Offender Pro
gram, in our opinion, has never
been the successful program
that it has been proclaimed to
be,” the two coordinators said
in the eight-page report.
The report charged the
corrections department with
using “misleading terms” and
“intellectual dishonesty in pub
licized statistics,” in proclaim
ing the program a success.
The report also accuses the
corrections department and
youthful offender program offi
cials of juggling statistics,
“laxity” and carelesness with
releases of youthful offenders,
even where new and serious
violations of the law are
Refused
ATLANTA (UPI) - A three
judge federal panel refused
Tuesday— for the present —to
intervene in the controversy
over $11.5 million in pay
increases for college and
university professors which was
eliminated by the state legis
lature.
The judges said the American
Association of University
Professors should pursue the
matter in state courts but
indicated if the case is not
acted upon speedily, they could
decide the issue.
Suspect held at Savannah
SAVANNAH, Ga. (UPI) - Chatham County police
arrested one suspect and were searching for two others
late Tuesday in the kidnaping, robbery and shooting of a
Savannah man.
Authorities said two men and a woman left Robert
Allen, 58, for dead on a highway after taking S7OO from
him and shooting him four times.
Police would not identify the suspect in custody.
A spokesman said police investigating the incident were
making “tremendous progress with it and its almost
0ver....”
Allen, a brickmason, was reported in stable condition
after undergoing surgery at Memorial Hospital.

apparent.”
The program allows judges to
impose sentences from zero to
six years on defendants be
tween 17 and 25 years old who
are convicted on non-capital
offenses.
The responsibility of approv
ing all releases under the
program and sending inmates
back to jail was given to the
parole board by the 1975
General Assembly.
The report said the parole
board has revoked 39 condition
al releases since assuming
revocation duty in July 1975 as
compared to 33 releases
revoked by the Corrections
Department during three years.
Cecil McCall, parole board
chairman, reportedly sent let
ters to Fulton County’s superior
court judges asking for their
advice, “if the program is to
have intergrity.”
Dr. Allen Ault, commissioner
of Corrections and Offender
Rehabilitation, said the youth
program “is the best we have
ever had, and there is no
reason not to believe that.”
Ault said he objected to the
subjective nature of the report
and said the parole board
compiled it only three months
after it took over the program.
He. “I could only guess at some
of the (parole board’s) inten
tions with the report,” Ault
said, “We’ve(corrections) have
tried to be positive in our
approach, while others run out
criticisms.”

NBG plans
to form
holding
ATLANTA (UPI) — The
National Bank of Georgia, one
of the five largest banks in
Atlanta, announced plans Tues
day to form a one-bank holding
company to broaden its finan
cial activities.
NBG is the only one of the
five which has not been
operated as a holding company
because the bank had been
owned by a Washington-based
multi-bank holding company
until it was purchased by
president Bert Lance and two
partners last May.
Under the proposal submitted
to federal regulatory agencies,
the NBG Co. would become the
sole shareholder of the bank
with current shareholders as
suming the same position in the
holding company.
Lance said “this move will
simply give us much greater
flexrbility” because Federal
Reserve regulations bar banks
from getting into certain
business areas which are open
to holding companies. He said
those areas included mortgage
servicing, industrial loans and
equipment leasing.
