JAP SUN GODDESS BALMY BUT FREE BY POLICE ORDER

    KANAZAWA, (Japan) Jan. 24. (AP) - Jiko, the self-proclaimed sun goddess, was released from police custody today although a psychiatrist pronounced her mentally deranged.
    Also released was Futabayama, one of her leading disciples, who was so infuriated at her arrest that he battered several policemen with chairs and clubs. Friends of Futabayama, former world champion sumo wrestler, reported he has had enough of Jiko and will return to the prosaic job of coaching wrestlers.
    Several leading Jiko cultists were held, however, to explain whether heavy collections of money and food for the sun goddess were made legally.
