and derringer and took $3,500
worth of personal possessions as
collateral on the debt.
Peterson testified that he saw
neither a gun nor a knife during
the confrontation and that Wag-
ner himself suggested that Pla-
mondon and Blazier take the
goods as security on the debt.
Peterson also said that Pla-
mondon had assumed a media-
tion role in seeking payment of
the debt, but that he had warned
Wagner that associates of Bla-.
zier had threatened to use "ice-I

picks and battery acid" if Wag-
iner refused to pay up.
PLAMONDON was ultimately
found guilty of one count of ex-
tortion which stemmed from
Plamondon's threat to expose
Wagner in the Ann Arbor Sun as
a rip-off artist.
The state Supreme Court's re-
versal was based on two illegal
wiretaps staged by state police
in cooperation with Wagner. The
police had persuaded Wagner to
contact Plamondon to lure him
into an extortion attempt.

By TRUDY GAYER
A carpenter, a high school dropout, and
a dirty old man are the heroes of the incom-
ing class at Brown University, according to
a poll released this week.
But Jesus Christ, Albert Einstein, and
Groucho Marx are held in far less reverence
at this University, however. Most respondents
to an informal poll said that the choices of
incoming Brown students reflect viewpoints
which should change in the next four years.
LAURIE Huttunen, a senior majoring in
sociology believes "the choices are accurate
for the mentality of most freshpersons these
days. The switch is from the political figures
to religious and escape-type things. It's a
change from when I was a freshperson."
Another senior, Nancy Gordon, also reflect-
ed this viewpoint. "Maybe in four years they
(freshpersons) will become more cynical and
intelligent," she said.
"It's extremely notable that none of the
choices are women, particularly in light of
the women's movement," added Gordon.
"Whatever happened to Florence Nightin-
gale, Bella Abzug, or the Virgin Mary?"

VERY FEW of the students polled here
seemed to concur in the choices .made by
the Brown students. In addition, University
freshpersons felt that the choices were not
representative of their age group as a whole,
but rather were confined to Brown Univer-
sity frosh.
"I have no interest in Jesus Christ, I don't
care for Groucho Marx's humor and a scien-
tist as a hero doesn't appeal to me," respond-
ed freshman Eric Silverstadt. "The late
Duane Allman and Robert Kennedy are my
heroes now."
Most University freshpersons agreed that
their heroes would probably change in four
years on campus because they would learn
more about people and be influenced by
those around them.
FRESHMAN Brian Lipson, however, is ada-
mantly opposed to shifting his admiring gaze
from Ben Franklin, Andrew Jackson, and
John Locke.
"I haven't changed my heroes in the past
four years and I'm not going to change them
in the next four years," he said.
