/ Reward Rises to $26,000 in Student's Death By GLENN BURKINS. , n about the person or persons who killed Universi~ ,of San Diego student Anne Ca erine Swanke has been increased to $26,000, a University or San Diego official said Monday. Sara Finn, a spokeswoman for the university, said someone anon- ymously donated $20,000 to be added to the $5,000 reward already offered by the victim's father. An additional $1,000 is being offered by the San Diego Crime Stoppers Program. Finn said $10,000 or the reward will go to anyone with information leading to the "arrest and indict- ment" or the killer, while the other $16,000 will be given for informa- tion leading to the "conviction" of the killer. In the wake or the Swanke murder, the YWCA is offering car distress banners to ward off would-be attackers, a YWCA spokeswoman said. The red fluorescent banners have one-foot-high letters that read "Please Call Police." A woman with car trouble should put the banner in her car window, not accept help from strangers and stay in the car until police arrive, the spokeswoman said. Swanke was a 22-year-old honor student whose 1974 Dodge Colt apparently ran out of gas near Jackson and Parkway drives after midnight Nov. 20. She walked to a service station two blocks away to buy a can of gas and was last seen carrying it back to her car. Her fully clothed body was found by a hiker Nov. 24 in a remote area of Spring Valley. An autopsy showed that she bled to death after being stabbed in the neck. The "Please Call Police" banners may be purchased at any YWCA for $4 or can be ordered by sending a check or money order to, YWCA Help Banners, 1012 C St., San Diego, Calif. 92101. More than 1,500 banners have been sold so far, a YWCA spokeswoman said Monday. Times Staff Writer t:f , / A reward for ii%rJia
