After, rushing Pat to the hospital to have his stomach pumped, Baumgartner telephoned a friend who advised that Pat be taken to "The a South Florida drug treatment center. For the next 42 days Pat lived in a foster home and his only communication with his parents was two nights a week when all 800 patients at The Seed assembled in a huge warehouse.
"DONE EVERYTHING" Pat stepped to a microphone and told an audience of 1,200 parents: "My name is Pat. I'm 15 years old. I've done everything from pot to heroin for three and a half years."

Baumgartner, 44, was then the middle of his campaign for a third term in the Florida House of Representatives. He had to reduce his campaign schedule because of the twiceweekly parents' nights at The Seed, but he won re-election anyway.

BAUMGARTNER Baumgartner introduced two bills in the 1973 legislative session. One appropriated $400,000 to help sustain licensed drug treatment centers like the Seed. The other modified a 1972 law which required school boards to students charged or convicted of a drug crime, giving the option of readmitting the pupil if he completed treatment in a licensed rehabilitation center. BOTH BILLS PASS Both bills passed the Legisla- ture last week. Next year he plans to reintroduce a bill, killed this session, which would have required $1 of each court fine paid in Florida to be funneled into a fund to assist drug treatment centers.
He notes the 50 licensed drug treatment centers in Florida are overloaded with nearly 100,000 patients. "We need more money for treatment and less for said Baumgartner.

Request Waldheim May Seek Mideast Settlement By WILLIAM N.
OATIS UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (AP) The U.N. Security Council may be about to ask Secretary-General Kurt Waldheim to try to settle the Arab-Israeli conflict. A senior U.N. diplomat said Waldheim probably would accept the assignment.
Austria, Waldheim's homeland, was reported Sunday to have drafted a resolution that would have the 15-nation council request Waldheim to use his good offices to get a settlement. Diplomatic sources said the Austrians in Cairo had shown the draft to the Egyptians, who asked for the debate scheduled to start Wednesday. The informants were unaware of the Egyptian reaction. A spokesman for the Austrian U.N. mission said the report was "perhaps a little premature, since the mission does yet have Vienna's instruc-1 tions for any action.
But he said the idea of involving Waldheim was "very much on our line." He would not rule out Austria's introducing a resolution. Handing the issue to Waldheim could turn out to be the only thing to emerge from the debate. All other suggested courses of action are, in the view of Man is Killed In Shooting Here A Shreveport man was pronounced dead at the scene after suffering a gunshot wound in the chest early Sunday morning.
