gaining in South
(UPI) — A recent
poll of Deep South voters shows
former Georgia Gov. Jimmy
Carter leading his two chief
rivals for the Democratic
presidential nomination, virtu
ally changing places with
George Wallace from a poll
taken last fall.
The Darden Research Corp,
said a telephone poll of 600
voters in seven Southern states
showed Carter, aided by his
victory in the New Hampshire
primary, had taken the lead
from Wallace and was ahead of
Washington Sen. Henry Jack
son.
The Atlanta-based firm’s poll
also showed Carter’s name

June bride
in prison?
MENARD, 111. (UPI) - A June bride
inside prison walls? It could happen
this year in the Illinois prison system.
A no-frills marriage ceremony at the
Menard Correctional Center last
Saturday wasn’t the first in an Illinois
prison and officials think there may be
more.
Joseph Feconda, administrator of
adult institutions for the Department of
Corrections, says there are no special
accommodations for a bride and groom
— no extra time beyond the ceremony
and certainly no honeymoon.
The gates to marriage ceremonies
inside prisons opened four or five
months ago, Feconda said, after a legal
service group from Carbondale,
Ill.,"suggested” it was a violation of an
incarcerated person’s rights to deny a
marriage ceremony.
“Our legal people, after checking
with several states, basically agreed
that we didn’t have a legal leg to stand
on,” Feconda said.
So the marriages began.
“To the best of my recollection, we
had one marriage at Pontiac and the
one at Menard and two more are
pending at Joliet and Stateville,” he
said.
can candidates, but the Presi
dent’s popularity was sagging
among registered voters in
South Carolina, Mississippi,
Tennessee, North Carolina,
Alabama, Georgia and Florida.
The poll said among a group
of likely candidates, 19.5 per
cet of the voters favored Ford
for the presidency, a 7.8 per
cent decline from last fall.
Carter was second with 15.5
per cent, while former Cali
fornia Gov. Ronald Reagan got
13.3 per cent.
A bare majority (50. per
cent) of those sampled said
there was no candidate they
would “never” consider voting
for among the likely conten
ders.
Oddly enough, both Ford and
bomb had been carried into the
jail by a man whose wife was
arrested for allegedly murder
ing her two-month-old daughter.
Authorities said Bruce and
Harriet Sisk were killed instant
ly in the explosion in Mrs.
Sisk’s jail cell.
Also killed was Mason County
Deputy Sheriff Kenneth Dale
Love.
The other victim was not
immediately identified.
Mrs. Sisk, 18, was held for
the murder of her two-month
old daughter, whose body was
found last weekend in a freshly
dug grave near her rural home.
Police had begun a search after
they had been told the baby
had been abducted.
Reagan showed declines in a
head-to-head matchup, with 43.2
per cent of the voters favoring
the President and 35.3 per cent
chosing Reagan. In the fall
sample, 45.2 per cent had gone
for Ford and 40.1 per cent for
Reagan. The percentage of
voters with no opinion was 21.5,
a 7.1 per cent increase over the
fall figure of 14.6 per cent.
The poll said 30.2 per cent of
those surveyed were over 55
years of age and 23.8 per cent
in the 25-to-34 age bracket. Men
made up 50.2 per cent of the
sample.
Os the voters surveyed, 29.8
per cent had graduated from
high school and 20.7 had college
degrees.
Moynihan’s
mother found
unconscious
NEW YORK (UPI) - The
mother of former U.S. Ambas
sador to the United Nations
Daniel Patrick Moynihan was
found unconscious Tuesday in
her upper East Side apartment
in what police said was a
“possible attempted suicide.”
Mrs. Margaret Moynihan, 69,
was rushed to Metropolitan
Hospital where a spokesman
this morning said she had been
taken off the critical list and is
in stable condition.
Mrs. Moynihan was found by
a neighbor about 11 a.m.
Tuesday in her second-floor
apartment, police said.
Some pill containers and a
note were found but police
would not reveal the contents of
the note.
A department spokesman
said the case was being listed
as a “possible attempted
suicide.”
The hospital spokesman said
Moynihan, who now teaches at
Harvard, had not been at the
hospital but might come in
today. His brother, Michael,
who has a public relations firm,
was at the hospital Tuesday
night.
