"It's the story of a Boston cop who turned bad, hiding behind his badge WILLIAMSBURG, Va. (UPI) -About 200 devotees of master detective Sherlock Holmes, many sporting deerstalker hats and puffing meerschaum pipes, turned out Saturday to celebrate Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's creation of their fictional hero 100 years ago. Holmes came to life in the pages of literature in 1887 when Doyle's "A Study in Scarlet" was published. "The Jungians say he's an archetype now, like Father Christmas or Mother Earth," said John Bennett Shaw, a longtime Holmes buff and leader of this weekend's conference on all things Holmesian at the College of William and Mary. "He represents truth, justice, retribution, order," said, searching for the right words to explain the lasting devotion to the aloof but magnetic Holmes character.

Shaw has held 18 workshops on the great detective all over the U.S., averaging two per year. The conference attracted the largest crowd ever for the workshops, said Ray Betzner of Williamsburg, who helped coordinate the event. The session attracted a wide assortment of people. "About 40 percent are doctors, lawyers, academicians, clergy, professional people," Shaw estimated. "Some are business people they run the gamut of almost anything." Betzner, like many of the attendees, is a member of the Baker Street Irregulars, "the" Sherlock Holmes club, organized in the 1930s to perpetuate the memory of Doyle's detective.

A month later, he gave detailed accounts to federal authorities of Houten as the only Manson Family memDer ne would consider for parole, said her brief 1981 prison marriage to another convict who he suspects tried to help her escape was radi5 "There is a definite pattern of falling in with bad male company. It's not the type of action from someone who is ready to go out and live with people in society," Kay said. Though uninvolved in the Aug. 8, 1969, Tate killings, Van Houten admitted going to the LaBianca home the following night and holding Rosemary LaBianca while another family member stabbed her to death and repeatedly plunged a knife into her dead body. She later repudiated Manson and testified at her trial that she was a troubled teenager under the mind-warping effects of LSD who committed the ritualistic crimes to please a man she thought was "the Messiah." Mrotek says Van Houten has been a model prisoner.

"She is ready for parole," Mrotek said. "She has sufficient support and maturity to handle her release." He argued Van Houten may win freedom because it is near the end of the time 25 years usually served on a life term.

But Kay, who helped prosecute the Manson Family, says: "As far as I'm concerned, none of them should ever get out." Van Houten said at her hearing last year she blamed herself for the slaughters she called "frightening." "I blame myself for not having the ability to try and prevent the thing," Van Houten said.

"On hindsight I look back on it and I wish I would have left (before the murders). I have assumed responsibility for my part. I was part of something so frightening." But Kay said his hope for Van Houten's release any time soon was "destroyed" because of her behavior such 'as marrying a criminal and refusing to talk to a prison psychiatrist who she feared would give her a bad recommendation. "I had some question about Van Houten, but she kind of destroyed that. Maybe in the future, but not now," he said.
