Try please instead:

 function check_for_punc_1(object x)
   boolean capital1
   if x[1][1] < 90 then
     position(2,1)
     puts(1,"GARBLE: [Sentence is not capitalized...]")
     capital1=0
   else         -----<---- new
     capital1=1 -----<---- new 
   end if
     return capital1
 end function
