Probe continues
in BA explosion
TULSA (AP) — Investigators and
friends remain puzzled as to what was
behind an explosion that killed a
medical student in his Broken Arrow
garage.
Months away from graduating,
Richard McAfee had been preparing
for a cookout with friends Saturday
when he was killed in an explosion
just before 3 p.m. in his attached
garage.
“It just doesn’t click,” Jim Hart, a
classmate of McAfee’s at Oklahoma
State University College of Osteo-
pathic Medicine, told the Tulsa
World for a story in today’s editions.
Hart said he was shocked to learn
of the death. Before McAfee remar-
ried, Hart said, he lived next door to
Hart while both attended medical
school.
"He was a real nice guy,” Hart
said. “I thought of him as a brother.”
McAfee was to graduate in May
and had planned to do an internship at
Tulsa Regional Medical Center,
specializing in obstetrics and gyne-
cology, Hart said.
The Tulsa Police Depanment
bomb squad found a second device at
McAfee’s house and detonated it
about 6 p.m. Fourteen houses nearby
were briefly evacuated while police
searched McAfee’s house for more
explosives.
Pearl Bradley, McAfee’s mother-
in-law, described her son-in-law and
daughter as “happy newlyweds.”
“They were planning a dinner
party for some friends,” she said.
“Just all of a sudden, he was gone.”
Bradley said police searched on
Sunday a storage unit McAfee rented.
She said she did not know what they
found.
Hart said McAfee once appeared to
stay to himself some, but he became a
“changed man” when he eloped last
year.
Broken Arrow police could not be
reached for comment Sunday
afternoon.
McAfee’s neighbors reported hear-
ing a loud boom and feeling a small
rumbling through the house. McAfee
died at the scene.
The federal Bureau of Alcohol,
Tobacco and Firearms has joined the
investigation.
Boren advice
offered Keating
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) —
David Boren, the former Oklahoma
governor, hopes sharing his experi-
State
ing. “I can help walk you around
some pitfalls because I fell into so
many of them myself and not because
I am wise.”
Boren, now president of the
University of Oklahoma, said the
governor’s proposal to cut the appro
priation to higher education by 2.5
percent was “very harsh” and would
adversely affect efforts to raise
private money for OU.
He also urged Keating to
“continue to support a 9 percent
tuition increase and require schools to
pul 1 percent of the 9 percent in a
fund to provide more student aid to
low income students.”
Girl’s drowning
hits town hard
TULSA (AP) — The tiny Scquoy
ah County community known as
Blackgum Holler struggled Saturday
to cope with the drowning death of
one of its youngest residents.
Four-year-old Angel Lee Work
man drowned Friday after she
plunged over the lip of a steep limes-
tone bluff into the Red Bird Smith
Creek, about 200 feet below.
The Tulsa World reported the story
Sunday.
Neighbors reported seeing Angel
and a friend playing among the brush
moments before the girl was spotted
in the water below.
Unable to land a helicopter
anywhere near the bottom of the
ravine, rescuers were forced to carry
the child up the bluff’s tricky slopes
while administering CPR.
"It was, more or less, a series of
relays up the hill,” said emergency
medical technician Rod Bums, “and
a lot of times it was people on all
fours holding onto the guy who was
holding onto the girl. ”
Angel was pronounced dead upon
arrival at the Sequoyah Medical
Center.
Memorial and funeral services arc
pending, relatives said.
Jackson visits
Simpson cell
LOS ANGELES (AP) — The O.J.
Simpson whom the Rev. Jesse Jack-
son saw over the weekend was
nothing like his TV image: the well-
dressed, under-control Simpson who
passes notes to his attorneys,
grimaces at questions he doesn’t like
and smiles at Kalo’s jokes.
Instead, Jackson described a
sorrowful inmate, yearning for just
one more conversation with Nicole
BroVrn Simpson.
“It's just a sense of sorrow," Jack-
son said after emerging from the jail
on Sunday. "There’s no sense of
arrogance; there's a sense of contri-
tion, a sense of sorrow.”
Jackson said Simpson was brought
to the point of tears during their meet-
ing, which lasted slightly more than
an hour.
"He said he thought about the last
time that he talked to his ex-wife and
how he's always longing for one
more conversation,” Jackson said
Simpson is on trial in the June 12
knife slayings of Nicole Brown Simp
son and her friend Ronald Ooldman
Asked if he believes Simpson is
guilty, Jackson declined to comment.
Jackson said Simpson had asked
his lawyers to arrange the meeting,
and that he also wanted to talk to the
families of the victims while he was
in Los Angeles.
“Everybody's a vic.im — his
children, Ron Goldman and Nicole.
OJ. is a suffering victim,” Jackson
said.
Brian “Kato" Kaelin, the one time
Simpson house guest, was expected
back on the stand today, followod by
Kaelin's friend Rachel Ferrara, who
has corroborated his account of hear-
ing three thumps on his guest room
wall at the Simpson estate while talk-
ing to her on the phone.
Deputy District Attorney Marcia
Clark ended last week by trying to
show Kaelin might know something
about a feud between Ms. Simpson
and a former housekeeper.
But Superior Court Judge Lance
I to instructed jurors to disregard the
luestion, and reminded thorn that
aelin did not know anyone in the
case in 1989. Kaelin testified that he
didn't meet Ms. Simpson until 1992.
I
cnce in the office with Gov. Frank
Keating will help the new leader
perform his duties more efficiently.
“I hope that you will trust me as
you would your own staff to be a
sounding board,” Boren said in a
four-page, handwritten letter to Keat-
