FORT WAYNE, Ind. (AP) - The
woman who was with civil rights leader
Vernon Jordan Jr. the night he was shot
"was a very cooperative witness," but
an FBI spokeman said yesterday in-
vestigators "have nothing new -
nothing we did not already know."
Indiana FBI chief Wayne Davis said
at a news conference that Monday's
questioning of Martha Coleman, a 36-
year-old local Urban League board of
directors member, "was a logical in-
terview that had to be conducted."
HE ADDED authorities were inter-
viewing associates of Coleman - "both
male and female."
Jordan, shot in the back last Thur-
sday after getting out of Coleman's car,
was in serious, but stable condition
yesterday.
Four city police detectives spent an
hour talking with Coleman yesterday,
but no information was available from
that interview. f
Davis said the fact that Coleman was
not previously available perhaps made
people believe she had more to offer
than she did.
EARLIER YESTERDAY, U.S. at-
torney David Ready said he was
pessimistic about a break in the case
anytime soon.
"We're continuing to sift through the
information we have and at the same
time we're hoping a break comes
soon," Ready said. "We don't expect
one."
Asked if Coleman had been asked to
take a polygraph test, Davis replied,
"Mrs. Coleman is a witness. We are not
interested in any polygraph test."
Authorities have said Jordan and
Coleman went to her home to have cof-
fee after they met following the black
civil rights leader's address to a local
Urban League banquet.
DAVIS, ASKED IF Coleman was
questioned about having coffee, said,
"she indicated they had a cup of coffee.
But what they did there at her house is
really of no importance."
Mayor Winfield Moses Jr. said Fort
Wayne police had checked a campsite
near the shooting site and concluded it
was used by a number of children and
not by the person who shot Jordan. "We
have pretty much determined it has ab-
solutely nothing to do with this case,"
he said.
Moses also said county police walked
about four miles down Interstate 69 in
the vicinity and recovered a T-shirt but
"it's certainly nothing to pin high hopes
on."
Davis, asked if Coleman might have
been the intended victim and not Jor-
dan, said: "Anything is possible."
Coleman earlier had told a,
newspaper columnist, "I don't have
anything to hide. I didn't seea thing out
there."
Moses said yesterday a reward fund
made up ofpublic donations "hopefully
will entice people to come forward with
vital information."

Nine states held Republican
primaries and elected 418 delegates and
eight states held Democratic primaries
dividing up 696 delegates. Both parties
also held primaries in Rhode Island,
New Mexico and Montana while only
Republicans voted in Mississippi.

Republican presidential nominee, won

members thought continuing litigation
over the status of GSAs could hinder the
formulation of an amicable settlement
before the end of the year.
The case, currently under con-
sideration by MERC Administrative
Judge Shlomo Sperka, will determine
whether GSAs are subject to PERA.
The University has consistently held
that GSAs (which include teaching,
staff, and research aides) are not em-
ployees and therefore are not subject to
the provisions of PERA.
A ruling favorable to GEO would give
GSAs input into determining wage
levels, class sizes, and the nature of the
work they will pursue, according to
Kadlecek.
Republican primary.
With 48 per, cent of the vote counted,
the former California governor was
garnering 81 per cent of the vote to 17
per cent for Bush and two per cent for
Stassen. Bush has withdrawn from the
GOP presidential sweepstakes.
Democrats were choosing 113
delegates to their national convention
in New York this August, while
Republicans were electing 66
convention delegates.
