GM plants all over the country are getting back on line.
“I've had a little honey-do vacation, but. yes. I'm glad to be back."
lead inspector Larry Bush said Monday.
Plant manager Russ Youngs expects a command soon to step up
production.
"I would anticipate we would be working an overtime schedule," he
said. "Not today, but it could be this week."
The Oklahoma City plant makes the Chevrolet Malibu and the
Oldsmobile Cutlass.

will serve as co-chairmen of the summit.
Officials from Oklahoma. Kansas. Colorado. Louisiana. Minnesota.
Arkansas, Texas. Missouri. Montana, New Mexico and Idaho also are

Dentist wanted on porno charges
TULSA. Okla. (AP) - A Tulsa dentist accused of taking pornographic
photos of young patients may be on the run, a prosecutor says.
Dr. Donald Johnson had been vacationing with his family in Estes
Park, Colo., when he was charged Friday with producing the sexually
explicit photos of children.
Authorities say Johnson somehow learned of the charges and
disappeared in a rented car before Colorado police were able to attest
him. He left his family behind in Estes Park.
Tulsa County District Attorney Chuck Richardson said the dentist is
considered a fugitive. The FBI has issued a federal flight warrant
against him.
Monday evening, the Oklahoma Board of Dentistry voted in an
emergency meeting in Tulsa to suspend Johnson's license until it can
hold a formal hearing on Sept. 4.
Last week, Johnson's employees found a box of pornographic
pictures in his office and recognized some young patients in them,
according to an affidavit.
During a search, sheriff's deputies found more than 100 picture* of
young girls performing oral sex on a man, officials said.
Forest fires destroy animal habitats
BROKEN BOW. Okla. (AP) - Massive fires in southeastern Oklahoma
forests are leaving the soils sterile and prone to erosion.
Earthworms and other small links in the food chain have been
destroyed. Organic matter on the ground - pine cones, needles, bark,
leas es - has gone up in smoke.
Forestry experts say wildife and vegetation could have a hard time
tffrivinz again iniknkedithjictetsarpund Broken Bow.
"Ys, the earth ie-able to ststain itself, miraculously overcome these
effects," said Chris Acuff, field agent with the Oklahoma Department
of Agriculture's forestry service. “But it's certainly not a good thing."
The U.S. Forest Service said 43 fires since Wednesday have burned
10.342 acres scattered throughout an area of timberland called the
Bear Mountain Fire Complex. All blazes were contained by Monday.
Two homes and several other structures were destroyed. No injuries
have occurred among the 285 firefighters from various agencies and
logging companies.
Rainfall levels in southeastern Oklahoma are running more than 6
inches below normal since May 1. High temperatures regularly exceed
100 degrees.
