Same 100 law enforcement officers from North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia combed the mountainous forests of Macon and surrounding counties Friday for two men sought in the shooting of a state trooper. A bulletproof vest spared Trooper Glenn Alien Jones, 23. tervmi injury when be was hit with two or three bullets during a during a routine traffic stop, authorities said. Jones was released from Angel Community Hospital in Franklin Friday morning, according to Sharon Robtson, an administrative secretary at the hospital. Sgt Jack Edwards of the Highway Patrol headquarters in Asheville said officers had set up roadblocks in Macon, Clay and Jackson counties in North Carolina, as well as neighboring counties in South Carolina and Georgia.

"There are so many different agencies involved, it's difficult to give an accurate count" of the officers in the search, Edwards said. Trooper CD. Jenkins, who was patrolling in the same general area, told The Asheville Citizen that Jones had stopped a van on the side of U.S. about 10:15 p.m. because it had no license plates.

As he was walking up to the vehicle, he was hit several times with gunfire, apparently from a small -caliber handgun. Jenkins said Jones returned the fire as he made his way back to his cruiser to call for help. Jones then began driving himself to the hospital, but Jenkins said he told him to pull off the road and wait for assistance. Jenkins, who is a trained emergency medical technician, said he could not determine if the bullets penetrated Jones's protective vest. Gathers convicted of killing man CHARLESTON.

S.C. Jurors on Friday convicted 19-year-old Demetrius Gathers of criminal sexual conduct and murder in the death of a man who was beaten, assaulted with an umbrella and stabbed as he tried to read his Bible in a park. Gathers is one of four men accused of being on a bike path late Sept 13 or early Sept. 14 when Richard Haynes was attacked. Charles M.

Condon, the 9th Circuit Solicitor, had said Haynes "thought he could read his Bible in peace on a park bench in Charleston County at 10 p.m. on a Saturday night That was his mistake." The same jury will decide in -Charleston County General Sessions Court whether Gathers will face the death penalty. The beating that Haynes suffered most likely caused the 32-year-old Half of S.C. residents give Reagan high rating COLUMBIA About half of the people in South Carolina approve of the way President Reagan is handling his job, according to a poll commissioned by The State newspaper. Results of the poll, conducted Feb.

27 through March found that 47 percent of the people surveyed said they uke the job Reagan is doing; nearly 39 percent disapproved; and 14 percent were undecided. Reagan delivered a nationally televised speech on the Iran-Contra issue March 4. while the poll was in progress. South Carolinians apparently were impressed with what the president said. Before the speech, 45 percent of the people surveyed approved of the president However, favorable opi- nions toward the president increaa- ed to 57 percent of those interviewed after the address.

His disapproval rating dropped from 42 percent to 29 percent The no-opinion responses remained con-', stant A national survey showed a similar response. A Washington Post-ABC News PoU taken Jan. 15-19 set the presi- dent's popularity rating at 50 per- cent In a survey taken March 5-4. just after his speech, that poll show-' ed Reagan's approval at 47 percent. While the rating had dropped, it was even lower just before to the speech, said Ken John, who works with the Post poll.

Metromark Market Research Inc. of Columbia, which conducted the poll for The State, talked with 515 people during the survey. Statewide responses represent the adult population by age, sex and race. The error rate is plus or minus 4.3 percent Fifty-seven percent of the South Carolinians surveyed said they trusted Reagan to make the right decisions when it comes to world affairs. About 30 percent said they didn't trust him, and the others didn't have an opinion.

Similar responses came on the Iran arms controversy, where people were asked to choose a statement reflecting how they thought Reagan handled the situation. About 83 percent said they agreed with the statement that the Iran arms sale "shows Reagan may have made mistakes in this particular instance, but his handling of it doesn't raise major questions about, his ability to run the country overall." Twenty-eight percent thought the Iran affair "shows Reagan is not in control of his presidency and raises questions about his ability to run the country overall." Just more" lhan half, 52 percent said Reagan is doing all he can to get to the facts in the Iran controversy, while 37 percent said he wasn't and 11 percent said they didn't know. The survey also found South Carolinians are partisan when it comes to evaluating their president man's death, according to testimony Thursday by Or. Sandra Conradi. the county's chief medical examiner.

The stab wound and injuries from the sexual assault, if not treated, wouldn't have killed Haynes for several days, she said. Esdavan Hardrick, IS, one of four men implicated in the case, testif ed Wednesday that Gathers started the assault sexually assaulted Haynes with the umbrella and admitted stabbing Haynes. "It's hard to imagine an animal being treated as atrociously as Haynes was treated." Condon said. Break not all fun for Clemson students GALVESTON. Texas Twenty-three Clemson University students are among thousands visiting Galveston during spring break, but these students are hard at work spiffing up community centers on the island.

The students from the university's Baptist Student Union have been painting and waxing floors at Galveston's Seaman's Center, preparing meals for the homeless at a Catholic center, fixing up an Episcopal day-care center and pitching in on odd jobs at the local Salvation Army headquarters. The students say they opted to pass the week-long lolling in the sun preferred by thousands of their counterparts to lend a helping hand. "Mostly, it's an opportunity to do something for people who don't have as much or can just use the help," said Clemson senior Don Bobeng, a 21-year-old computer science major from Atlanta. "I've never had any ambition to go down to Florida because I don't drink and I'm not a wild, partying kind of person," Bobeng said. Added 20-year-old junior Richard Nicholson of Wauchula, "Non-profit places can't afford to have this work done.

You cant stay out on the beach all day at other anyway, so you just get up in the morning and do some good work and help other people out" This isn't the first year Baptist students from Clemson have spent their spring break helping others. "I guess it started when I was a freshman and we were going to Louisville to do Inner-city work," said senior Kenny Owens, 21, a sociology major from Greenville, S.C.

The Citadel President retired Ma. Gen. James Grimsley Jr. said Friday he expects this fall's black freshmen enrollment at the military college to equal last year's, despite adverse publicity from a campus hazing. "My estimate is we'll matriculate at least the same number we did this year.

That's my forecast because we've made a significant turnaround in just the last month," Grimsley said. Applications from blacks fell off sharply after publicity about an Oc-- tober hazing in which five white cadets wearing sheets and towels entered the room of a black cadet and left a charred paper cross behind. The black later resigned. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People then filed an $880,000 lawsuit against college of- ficials and the white cadets charging the black student's constitutional rights were violated. Last year, 116 blacks applied at the military college, 72 were accepted and 36 enrolled.

There are about 125 black cadets in the college's corps of cadets. Grimsley said during Friday's For the record Huson Circle, Orangeburg, will be held at 2 p.m. Saturday at Thompson Funeral Home Chapel, with the Rev. Ralph Lovern officiating. Burial will be in Tabernacle Cemetery on U.S.

Both an internal report and a report from the state Human Affairs Commission found race relations on campus were generally good, although steps could be taken make students more sensitive to the feelings of other races.
