But Fred Cowan, a 6-foot, 250-pound weight-lifting giant of aman, "could never make it with them, he never had a girl friend in the seven years I've known him," Parks said the morning after his 33-year-old friend went on a rampage in a New Rochelle warehouse, killing five people, wounding five oth- ers before taking his own life. It was the frustrations in Cow- an's personal life that his friends were speaking of yester- day as they tried to put together the puzzle of a neighbor ap- parently gone gun crazy. They recalled Cowan's inordi- nate interest in guns and the arsenal of pistols and rifles he kept in his attic room. The big man was -so proud of his guns that he often traded neighbor- hood kids a look at the collec- tion for washing his car. Shy with women, Cowan was more relaxed in the neighbor- hood Galway Bay Bar where he would display his huge muscles in the mirror and ripple his ta- toos, including a swastika. Cowan would often accom- pany his muscle - flexing with a tirade against blacks and Jews. "No doubt about tat, he was real prejudiced," said his friend Parks,jwho often went on hunting trips with him. His neighbors said yesterday they were not fully aware of the extent of Cowan's prejudice and did not know'ofsthe attic trove of Nazi arm bands, swastikas, and books on Adolf Hitler's Third Reich. Parks contributed part of the puzzle of his friend's violent Monday whe nhe told reporters that Cowan had felt he been un- fairly treated when he was sus- pended for two weeks by a mov- ing and storage company for not moving a refrigerator. Commission, news conference as the panel re- leased a report to President Car- ter and Congress. "School segregation is most acute in our cities where the majority of black and hispanic American children live and at- tend racially isolated public schools," the commission ob- served. "In the wake of two migra- tions - the movement of black people from the rural south to big cities throughout the coun- try and of whites from central cities to suburbs - the racial composition of these school sys- tems has changed dramatically from predominantly white to ,predominantly black." In Chicago and Detroit, for ex- ample, the public school enroll- ment in 1974 was more than 70 per cent black and other minori- ties, the report said. Minority enrollment was more than 60 per cent in New York and Phil- adelphia and more than 50 per cent in Los Angeles. That means, the commission said, that effective school inte- gration cannot be accomplished within the boundaries of most big cities. School officials must reach- into the white suburbs, and they should do so voluntarily without waiting for court orders, Flem- ming asserted. Clues scarce; brothers dead HOLLANDSBURG, Ind. - Po- lice worked through a "moun- tain of information" yesterday in search of a clue to the killers of four young brothers in the farmlands of western Indiana. The officers said one of the clues was a description of the slayers they said could fit al- most any young men. The investigation centered on the possibility that the shotgun killings were the work of a small gang of youths who terrorized and robbed two couples from a neighboring county within the past week. The slayings here, early Monday, came after in- truders robbed the victims of about $30. At Indianapolis, State Police Supt. John Shettle said the in- vestigation was making "defi- nite progress" and has top prior- ity "until we have the perpetra-! tors behind bars." He said police were sifting "a number of leads and a mountain of information." He revised that later to say "we're working a mountain of general information, hoping to find a clue. But we don't have a specific clue." Officers on the scene said they were baffled, with no leads and no suspects. "I have no information that would indicate we have any con- crete leads that would enable us to crack this case in the very near future," said Sgt. Robert McClure, commander of the In-I diana State Police post at Terre Haute. State PB.B bill package1 DETROIT-Saying the people of Michigan are "literally being poisoned," U.S. Rep. William Bra headi (D?-Mih) i1vld a Brodhead, who represents Michigan's 17th congressional district encompassing parts of Detroit and western Oakland Couaty, said he has asked state Attorney' General Frank Keiley to halt sale of PBB-tained meat under existing state laws. "The people of Michigan are literally being poisoned," he said, "and we must put a stop to it immediately. We know that PBBs are dangerous poisons, and we -cannot afford to take chances on the health and safe- ty of our children while we ar- gue about how much poison we can eat without suffering dam- age." Brodhead called for the dis- missal of Ball and other depart- ment administrators responsible for the scandal in a letter to Gov. William Milliken. "It's just disgraceful the way they've handled this thing," he said. "I think it's amply docu- mented that they have approved the sale of diseased animals for slaughter." could be plunged into chaos by the end of the year. "We are facing a catastro- phe," Johnson said. The Department of Corrections expects its inmate population will swell from its current 12,- 668 to 14,200 by the end of the year. That would mean the prison population has almost doubled since December, 1973. Earlier estimates had put the prison population peak at 14,000 by early 1979. Prison officials say the climb is faster than an- ticipated and are unsure what the upper limit will be. There are 1,524 more prisoners than last year at this time. The state's prisons already are about 1.000 beds short of the number needed to adequately house pris oners. "The expected 1,500 increase during the next 11 months will result in absolute chaos," John son said. "We must immediate- ly find additional housing to hold prisoners until some of "the pro- posed new prisons can be built." Johnson said new prisons will not be finished in time to meet the crisis expected this year. The department is currently pursuing the possible acquisition of the Wayne County Child De- velopment Center near, Ply- mouth as a prison for about 450 men and 60 or more women.

British accused of torture STRASBOURG, France - The European Human Rights Court announced yesterday that it would open a full-scale public trial in April on Irish allega- tions of the use of torture by British security forces in North- ern Ireland. The court made the decision despite a British plea to the Irish government to drop fur- ther international litigation on the issue, which Attorney Gen- eral Sam Silkin said could only harm bilateral efforts to stop the violence in Northern Ire- land. The 18 judges ruled in favor of the Irish government follow-' ing a three-day preliminary hearing in Strasbourg last week to establish the-scope of their competence. Ireland asked the court to take into account more than 220 alleged violations of the Euro- pean human rights convention, which forbids torture or degrad- ing treatment of detainees. Dublin referred the matter to the international tribunal after the European Human Rights Commission, a fact - finding body, said after a four-year in- vestigation that British forces in Northern Ireland had violated sections of the convention in their interrogation of 14 named detainees in August, 1971. It is the first dispute between the states to come before the court since it was set up in 1959. Before the court last week, the British government did not contest the 14 specific charges included in the commission's re- port, although it did not con- cede that the disputed inter- roeation methods were torture. Britain pledged never again to use the interrogation practices branded as torture by the Irish - blindfolding suspects. depriv- ing them of sleen and adeciate food and furring them to stand for lone neriods.

I Gonzalez Revilla led the Pana- manian delegation, on the short flight from Panama City to Contadora Tuesday morning. American negotiators, led by special Ambassador Ellsworth Bunker and Sol Linowitz went to the island with their working staff Sunday night. They said the United Statesr had the political will to conclude a treaty quickly if both sides were able to compromise. Former President Gerald Ford halted the canal talks last May when the waterway's fu- ture became a campaign issue. "A successful negotiation re- quires that each side bring to the negotiating table the politi- cal will to conclude a treaty,'' said Bunker, a veteran diplo- mat who has been the chief U. S. negotiator since 1973. Early yesterday morning, Panamanian chief of govern- ment Gen. Omar Torrijos made a surprise visit to canal's Miraflores Locks, inside the Ca-. nal Zone.
