·'Liberal' approach is key, officials tell USD seminar By Ed Jahn Staff Wr ter Border Patrol agents in the San Diego area have been told that until the first phase of the new Immigra- tion Reform and Control Act takes effect next year, they hould take a "liberal, good-faith approach'' in handling requests for amnesty from undocumented liens they appre- hend. an a ociate chief of th Bor- der Patrol said ye. terday. Also, the Immigration and Natur- alization Service (l ) plans to open legalization center · in San Diego, Escondido and Calexico by June 1, when aliens can begin requesting temporary-resident talus, said an INS deputy district director. Within the next two weeks, the INS will begin a ma ive rnformation campaign through the media to pre- pare hundreds of thousands of South- ern California's undocumented aliens for applying for permanent-resident status, the INS official said. Those and other announcements came yesterday at a seminar on the new immigration law held by the Mexico-U.S. Law Institute at the Uni- versity of San Diego. Although feder- al officials in attendance said they were still awa1tmg more direction from Washington, they were able to explain some of the guidelines they have been told to follow during the six-month educational period before applications are taken for perma- nent-resident status.

Superior Court Judge Frank)in_B. Orfield has taken under submtss1on the final pretnal motions in the two murder cases against David Allen Lucas, 30. Orfield took for consider~tion mo- lions to suppress evidence seized m a series of searches of Lucas· house and pickup truck in December 1984 and letters sent by Lucas from the county jail in early 1985. . Closing arguments on the motions yesterday en~ed 10 months of hear- ings on pretrial motions before Or- field in which 125 witnesses were called by Lucas' attorneys and 15 by Deputy District Attorneys Dame! Williams and George W Clarke. "The defense has attempted to at- tack every proce~ure by .law en,; forcement in se1zmg evidence, Clarke told Orfield.

Landon said that when KGTV as- signment editor J.W, Auglll>i and KGTV reporter Stephen Fiorina tes- tified about coverage of Lucas they had said that "the news media often find itself at odds with law enforce- ment."
