PLEASANTVILL, N.Y.
(AP) — Contrary to, popular
belief, elderly Americans are
the country’s least likely
crime victims. and young
adults the most common prey,
a new Gallup survey shows.

The survey, conducted for

that households from Color-

ado to the Pacific experience ©

proportionately more crime of
all kinds than households in
the rest of the United States.

The figures were 35 per

cent victimized in'1982 for the:

West and 23 per cent for the
test of the country.

The report, published in
the magazine's September
issue, said the countrywide
rate of crime victimization is
38 per cent among Americans
18 to 24 years old and falls
with age. It reaches its lowest
poing of 15 per. cent amon;
those 65 and older. é

OTHER FINDINGS

The survey was based on
interviews with 1,5SS adult
Americans. Among its other
findings:

© Forty-three per cent of
white Americans and 58 per
cent of non-whites said they
were afraid to walk the streets
at night within 1.6 kilometres
of their homes. Thirteen per
cent said they were afraid to
walk in their neighborhoods
during daylight.. \ \

© One in five men and one
in three women said they
worry about their personal
safety when away from home
during the day.  -

© Twenty-five per cent of
families surveyed had instal-
led dead-bolt. locks, burglar
alarms or other security de-
vices within the last three
years and 71 per cent said
they locked their cars regular-
ly.

was taken by Games officials or by his own team.
Vera, a silver medallist in the 4,000-metre individual
pursuit at the 1979 Games, said he took steroids two
months ago to help rebuild an atrophied leg muscle.
For the first time since the Games began, Cuba won
the most gold medals on Tuesday, picking up seven to the
Americans’ five, although the U.8. still had a huge lead in
the standings with 89 to the Cubans’ 55 and Canada’s 10.”
The Canadians, who had lost two gold on Monday
with the disqualification of weightlifter Guy Greavette of
New Westminster, B.C., got one back as freestyle
wrestler Ray Takahashi of Ottawa finished on top of the
62-kilo division. Canada also collected two silver and five
bronze to bring its total medal count to 79. ~
The Cubans took five of the 10 wrestling titles, one in
track and field and their seventh of eight fencing golds in
the team epee. The U.S., which won all 10 wrestling golds
at the 1979 Games had four this time, and picked up
another in cycling.
