CRIME AND SPECTACLE
Date: 25 September 1984
By Sydney H. Schanberg
Sydney Schanberg
In our criminal justice tradition, when a suspect is arrested there is an accepted disclosure process through which the public is told several things, including the name of the accused and the nature of the alleged crime. But when this process of informing the public escalates into a garish media spectacle, as it did recently in the child-abuse arrests in the Bronx, the system gets wounded. In this particular case, though three of the accused - all employees at the city-financed day-care center where the sexual abuses were said to have taken place - have subsequently been indicted by the grand jury, the fourth, a 62-year-old assistant teacher at the center, has been cleared of the charges brought against her by the Bronx District Attorney. She says her life has been ruined by the charges and by the spectacle. On the night of her arrest, Aug. 2, she was led, in manacles, past a group of neighborhood people who were understandably incensed about the child- abuse charges. They tried to attack this woman and another suspect who was with her.

BEIRUT PAPER REPORTS ANTI-U.S. THREAT

As American security officials continued to sift through debris at the the bombed United States Embassy building near East Beirut, a local newspaper reported a new threat today against American installations here. The leftist daily As Safir said an anonymous caller, identifying himself as a representative of the Islamic Holy War group, which took responsibility for the embassy attack Thursday, warned of ''a big operation'' against Americans. There was some question, however, whether the call was genuine, since previous calls from Islamic Holy War were made to a Western news agency and never to a local Arabic newspaper.

'MINELIKE OBJECT' OFF EGYPT IS LINKED TO RUSSIANS

A mysterious cylindrical ''minelike object'' found in the Gulf of Suez almost two weeks ago is probably a tube-launched mine of Soviet manufacture, according to Egyptian military sources and others close to the investigation. The sources stressed today that a positive identification had not been made. But British and Egyptian mine experts who have been inspecting the device were ''90 percent sure,'' as one source put it, that the mine had been made for export by the Soviet Union. ''It's got all the characteristics of a Russian mine,'' the source said.

A SEASONED ECUMENIST

The Rev. Arie R. Brouwer, nominated Monday to become the next general secretary of the National Council of Churches, is a seasoned ecumenist who wins acclaim from other church leaders for his piety and devotion to social justice. Many within the 31 Protestant, Anglican and Eastern Orthodox groups that belong to the nation's largest ecumenical organization hope that those qualities will allow Mr. Brouwer to usher the council out of its recent travails and into a period of renewed vitality. Mr. Brouwer was chosen unanimously from a field of 75 candidates by a 28-member search committee, and his nomination is expected to be ratified with ease by the council's general board in November. Claire Randall, general secretary since 1973, announced earlier this year that she would step down from the post.

MOSCOW GOSSIP: EMBASSY JOGGING AND NEWS OF CRIME
Date: 25 September 1984

This has been an autumn of political mysteries in Moscow. How sick is Konstantin U. Chernenko? Why is Andrei A. Gromyko meeting with President Reagan? Why was Marshal Nikolai V. Ogarkov dismissed as Chief of Staff? Diplomats whose job it is to explain such events to their governments have played out endless variations on the facts: a weak leadership floundering under an ailing leader . . . A strong leadership relegating its senior member to a ceremonial role . . . A power struggle between the Old Guard and Young Turks . . . A power struggle already concluded, with the baton passing to Mikhail S. Gorbachev, the leadership's youngster at 53 . . . Or to Grigory V. Romanov, 60. The buzz at diplomatic receptions has been: Who is mentioned how often in the press? Who might have gained or lost by the dismissal of Marshal Ogarkov? Whose programs are being promoted or criticized? Award to Chernenko at 73 The focus today was the award of an Order of Lenin to Mr. Chernenko. It appeared keyed to his 73d birthday today, although the occasion was not mentioned. The timing seemed unusual since decorations are generally presented on ''round dates.'' For example, the Moscow city leader, Viktor V. Grishin, who is also a Politburo member, got his Order of Lenin when he became 70 last Tuesday.

The Editorial Notebook; George Bush's Daily Dilemma

Traveling with Vice President Bush is like traveling with a circus tiger in a cage. His mission is not to make national news; that's for the President. His campaign is meant to get on television in far-flung media markets and to flatter small-town reporters with press conferences in this Elks Hall and that Holiday Inn. But there's an obstacle - the planeful of national reporters following his campaign.
