Those requiring emergency repairs are the Amazon Lake in Owens County, the Dugan Lake in Owens County and the Ferdinand State Forest Dam in Dubois County, the report says. Tom Williams, coordinator of the Corps' inspection program for the Louisville district, said the 65 other unsafe dams are not in imminent danger.
"A federal inspection was ordered by President Carter in December 1977 the 1976 collaps of the Teton Dam in Idaho and the 1977 failure of a dam at Toccoa Falls, Ga. It determined that almost 2,300 large dams throughout the nation are unsafe, with 119 of those requiring emergency action. The Corps has inspected nearly 250 of Indiana's approximately 800 dams and will inspect about 30 more, Williams said. The inspections include all "high hazard" and some "significant dams in Indiana. Williams said those classifications refer to the potential for loss of life and property if a failure occurred.
Vic Wenning, head of the regulations branch for the Department of Natural Resources water division, said all three dams requiring emergency repairs have been dewatered. The Ferdinand Forest Dam is operated by the DNR as part of a fish hatchery. contract been let for. repair of the dam, Wenning said. In addition to the three dams found unsafe by the Corps, three more dams are listed as unsafe by the DNR.
They are Taylor Dam in Parke County, Treece Dam in Tippecanoe County and Ken-Ray Dam in Lawrence County. Taylor and Treece dams were listed as unsafe at least four years ago. The dam owners have battled DNR repair orders in the courts, Wenning said. Ken-Ray Dam owners went bank-. rupt and new owners have hired engineers in an effort to resolve the problems, Wenning said.
More than 7,300 dams nationwide have been inspected under a program scheduled for. completion in September at an estimated cost of $93 million. About 30 percent have been found defective. The most common problem has been inadequate spillways, Corps officials say. Other problems include seepage and unstable and defective.

ruled out (From Page 1) small person as we understand. That's why we're devoting all efforts to trying to reach him." Brown said Friday that Innis had been advised of the legal consequences he would face if CORE chose to make a citizens' arrest. But he said police officials have no plans to bring any charges against Innis for making his allegations. purported suspect was located Wednesday, the same day the FBI first met with Innis to discuss his theory, Brown said. He declined to say how the man was ruled out as a possible suspect.
But a source close to the investigation said that inconsistencies had been discovered in the witness' claim that she had received telephone calls from the purported suspect informing her in advance of two killings. "Certain things that she said he had said in relation to killings. just didn't add up," said the source, whoasked not to be identified. The dates and times of the telephone conversations cited by the witness corresponded more closely to. news accounts than to the actual disappearances of the victims, the source said.
In dismissing the man as a suspect for. the time being, police satisfied themselves the suspect had alibis in connection with the crimes, the source said. turns ahead. (From Page 1) light Time Sunday. Although they officially are on Standard Time, they make the Daylight switch presumably because many of their residents commute to jobs in Cincinnati and Louisville, where the clocks are on Daylight Time.
If Indiana has an official timekeepher, it's probably Rod Gorman, building superintendent at the state Capitol building. He is responsible each morning for checking the clock on the second floor of the Capitol that registers the "offi. cial time of the state of Indiana in conformity with the uniform time act of 1966" to assure it's on time. Despite his responsibility, Gorman isn't sure why the official clock for In- diana doesn't apply to all the state. Nor can he explain how during the summer, most Indiana clocks really are set on Central Time, not Eastern Standard as the official clock proclaims.
"I don't know how it came to be," he says. "All I know is we stay on the same time here in Indianapolis all the time." Gorman checks official Indiana time each morning by comparing the clock to the time given over Indianapolis radio station. Yes, he maintains, it's all very reliable. "You gotta trust somebody," he says. It must work.
The clock is plugged in at a baseboard along the wall. Since 1966, nobody has pulled the plug on it, he says.
