however, Woodward got

Last February, I ordered a pair of sneakers as adver-
tised in the Lane Bryant catalog. They were too large,
so I returned them and re-ordered. I never heard from
them, so I wrote them, but as yet I haven't received my
shoes or a refund. Mrs. J. B. L., Watonga.
We tippy-toed over to the Better Business Bureau with
this shoe problem, and they wrote to the company. Now
the firm assures BBB that a full refund is on the way for
both the sneakers and the postage.

Thursday's Action Line column made mention of a
Midwest City podiatrist, "Dr. G.," who had been sent to
prison. The reference was to Dr. Eugene R. Gardner,
7019 SE 15, whose seven-year sentence for child aban-
donment was upheld Aug. 3 by the State Court of Crimi-
nal Appeals. _ _ . __
Gough, 5225 SE 15, recently moved his offices from Mid-
west City to a new location in Del City. He has no
connection with Dr. Gardner and the Times regrets any
confusion caused by the similar initials.

some way shifted its
stand.
It is believed that only a
handful of U.S. and South
Vienamese officials, in-
cluding Thieu and Bunker,
have any indication and
they are not talking.
In response to a question
whether he saw any rea-
son for hope for peace
soon, Thieu replied: "I be-
gan to lose any hope be-
cause since four years I
have hoped every day, but
four years has gone and
my hope is gone. Now I
continue to have new hope.
But I don't know when that
hope will come."
He referred to the four
years of the Paris peace
talks which have been
deadlocked.
Thieu, speaking to news-
men after an address to a
gathering of doctors at the
Saigon Medical Center,
was asked several ques-
tions about the U.S. presi-
dential election.
"I think the standard
view of President Nixon on
the Indochina war is very
clear and we also have a
very clear position on how
to conclude the war in In-
dochina and in Vietnam,"
Thieu said. "How the elec-
tion in the United States
affects that position, I
don't know because it is in-
ternal affairs and it has a
direct influence on Presi-
dent Nixon. But we still
maintain our position."
Thieu sidestepped a
question on what effect the
election of Sen. George
McGovern might have on
Vietnam.
We moved from one house to another, and the new tel-
ephone installed has never worked since. We receive
rings but cannot hear the other party or call out. I have
called the telephone repair senice daily for over a
week, and each time they say they will come out, but
they never show up. We have had a phone for five years
and pay our bill every month. Mrs. J. C.
We asked the Bell Telephone folks what about this,
and now they report you have a genuine two-way tele-
phone again.
There is what we call a dog kennel in the 1300 block
NW 2, where seven or eight grown dogs and some pups
are housed all the time. Morning and evening, they are
turned out into the front yard, and the barking, fighting
and commotion annoys this entire neighborhood. We
cannot stand this any longer. N. N.
Poundmaster Royal Burris says these dogs are legal
critters, since the owner religiously keeps their licenses
current. But he is passing along your report to the zon-
ing department, in case that dog collection violates some
provision in the zoning ordinances. While he was out
there, Burris did scoop up three strays and escorted the
owner of two other dogs to a veterinarian for licenses
and vaccination.

fected since ACOG has ex-
isted."
Other amendments were
made to the CACOG agree-
ments by delegates attend-
ing today's ACOG meeting
at Holiday Inn West.
However, the voting
power of the member gov-
ernments was considered
a most essential point.
Oklahoma City has set
seven conditions necessary
for its rejoining ACOG,
rather than going ahead
with formation of the new
council.
Among them were a re-
vision of the voting
strength. Oklahoma City
has had only one vote, the
same as every other town
in the four-county central
Oklahoma area, in ACOG.
The conditions also include
a discussion of personnel,
a revision of the bylaws
and changes in the dues
structure.
Norman Mayor Dunn
suggested today that Okla-
homa City should have to
pay dues only on the same
ratio it has a vote—that is
it pay only 35.8 per cent of
the tab for the new coun-
cil.
Before, it has paid 55 per
cent of the total budget for
ACOG, although its people
has had less than a three
per cent voting strength.

Ammerman and Thomas
has drawn up the specifi-

will be opened at 4 p.m.
Wednesday in the Foss
Master Conservacy Dis-
trict office in Clinton.
Fred Spitz of the firm
said the project has drawn
national attention and he
expects about four bid-
ders. Construction time on
the plant is estimated at 15
months, he said.
A decision on which
process will be used to
treat the brackish water
will be made after the bids
are opened.
The experiments con-
ducted so far have already
provided some valuable
scientific information in a
field which is relatively
new, officials say. The pu-
rification processes tested
at Foss are very close in
most respects to those used
to remove the salt from
sea water, one official said.

Mrs. Jo Rice, Belle Isle's head librarian, said it is true
that they have become more strict on verifying address-
es because of increasing book losses throughout the
county system. You're in the age group most affected —
between the eighth grade when students no longer have
to hold cards signed by their parents and driving age.
But she said most any proof will do, such as a letter, a
layaway slip or a driving learner's permit.

White House adviser Hen-
ry A. Kissinger has been
successful in negotiating
an end to the war because,
he said, "I know how your
hopes must go up and
down with each story," the
newspaper said.
But, according to the
newspaper, he urged,
"Hang on ... this is an
important time."
The Star-Telegram also
said Laird insisted that
ties for the whole family,
however, including a
packed entertainment
schedule for the evening.
At 6:30 p.m., the famous
Old Guard Fife and Drum
Corps was to perform its
colorful march from the
fair grandstand to Four-
teen Flags Plaza.
The State Fair Champi-
o n s h i p Rodeo, starring
Roy Rogers and Dale Ev-
ans, and featuring the
Oklahoma City Symphony
Orchestra, was to get un-
derway at 7:30 p.m. in
the arena. At the same
time racing buffs could
watch the start of the
Mar-Car auto races in the
grandstand.
And at 8 p.m., "Sing
Out, Oklahoma City" was
to begin on the outdoor
stage.
But it was clearly the
youngster's day. They
roamed the midway, lug-
ging their stuffed animals
and cotton candy and en-
joying the noise and bus-
tle.
Reports from the test
plants at Foss say some of
them have turned out as
much as 10,000 gallons of
sweet water a day which is
well below the mineral
content set as acceptable
by health officials.
Good results have been
reported from tests by dif-
ferent methods and it is
believed that no major
problems will be encoun-
tered in producing the de-
sired three million gallons
a day of drinkable water
when the proposed plant is
built, although it will be
probably the largest such
undertaking in history.
Production of drinkable
water will be financed by
a federal grant of $850,000,
a federal loan of $850,000
and $580,000 to be provided
by the four Western Okla-
homa cities that are to use chlorides to increase,

The high mineral con-

has been worse than was
expected, however.
