John R. Hixson, an employee in the city transportation office, said workers will begin building a temporary station to handle Harvard Square passengers while the subway line is being extended, "by about late October or November."

...Ortiz case seems to be all too typical in Philadelphia. Police have also been accused of severely beating a black gas-station owner, a white college student and a British musician. In July, a cop with a previous record of assault shot and killed José Reyes, 28, a former mental patient, in the doorway of his home. The police say he was threatening the cop, but a witness told TIME Correspondent James Willwerth that Reyes had stumbled and "was goin' in the house on all fours" when the policeman, .standing over him, fired twice.

...after the abduction, the kidnapers made six demands in a letter that was anonymously left at a police station. It was signed Kommando Siegfried Hausner, R.A.F.-referring to a terrorist who lied after a 1975 attack on the West German embassy in Stockholm.

Carter Country (premiere: Sept. 15, 9:30 p.m. E.D.T. on ABC). In this ridiculous sitcom, TV does its cynical best to cash in on the popularity of Jimmy Carter. The action takes place around the police station of a small Georgia town, where the cracker sheriff (Victor French) must cope with a New York-trained black sergeant (Kene Holliday), a dumb racist deputy (Harvey Vernon) and a sex-crazed policewoman (Barbara Cason). There's also a politically ambitious mayor (Richard Paul) who looks like Bert Lance and, in the opening episode, an off-screen visit by the President himself...
