"fell off his chair" when he learned
that all 66 priest* covered on a
group medical policy now have to
pay 30 cents a month extra — for
maternity benefits.
The priest* are required to pay
because a U.S Supreme Court anti-
discrimination ruling mandates
that employer* holding a group
medical policy covering 15 or more
worker* must pay for maternity
benefits for al) employee*, the tame

Since there are 66 priest* on the
diocesan policy, they must pay for
the maternity benefit* even though
they don't need them

States with production expected to
begin in 19X2, the Los AngeledS
Times reported today
A brief downpour hit Oklahoma
City this morning, and a few widely
scattered thunderstorms and Hfht
rain shower* drifted through east-
ern Oklahoma last night.
"Enactment of any of these provi-
sions would be sn sttempt to rene-
gotiate the treaties after th* fact
and would constitute a failure by
the United States to live up to it*
International obligations." the re-
port say*
The problem was discovered last
fall when the Edmond kennel owner
brought the dog to the OSU Veteri-
nary Clinic for treatment Officials
said the dog died, and an autopsy re-
vealed the death may have been
connected with leishmaniasis
Since last fall. Fox said two other
dog* from the kennel have died, and
leishmaniasis is being investigated
as a possible cause for the deaths
The state Health Department and
University of Oklahoma are assist-
ing the OSU vet school in tlfe inves-
tigation
Fox said researcher* have no clue
to the origin of the disease "That *
the key tp the whole problem," Fox
sfjd
He said that the animal trapping,
human testing and observation of
other animal* kept in the kennel are
methods that the team is using in
hopes of determing the origin
This is not a research project at
this point This is a full-fledged in-
vestigation." he said
