GOP leader says
don’t count out
ATLANTA (UPI) - With the
small Republican primary vote,
state GOP chairman Bob Shaw
may feel like he’s tilting at
windmills. But he puts on a
brave front.
Shaw, appearing before an At
lanta civic club with Georgia
Democratic chairman Charles
Kirby Thursday, said, “Don’t
rule us out. We may not have
looked too good in the primary
and the runoff. But in the gener
al election, you’ll know we’re
here.”
He predicted that angered
Democratic supporters of other
candidates in the gubernatorial
race would vote Republican.
Kirbo said Shaw wouldn’t
have any trouble finding mad
Democrats but they wouldn’t be
“mad enough to vote Republi
can.” He said that even if Ma
con Mayor Ronnie Thompson,
the apparent GOP winner in the
race for the gubernatorial nom
ination, received all the votes
won by Lester Maddox in the
primary runoff, “they still
wouldn’t be elected.”
George Busbee defeated Mad
dox by some 150,000 for the
Democratic nomination for gov
ernor but the GOP drew only
about 50,000 total votes for
Thompson and his opponent,

Anthrax
kills big cats
OLYMPIA, Wash. (UPI) — A
rare outbreak of anthrax has
killed about 25 exotic big cats
on a game farm on the Olympic
Peninsula, the state Agriculture
Department said Thursday.
Department Director Stuart
Bledsoe said the animals
apparently contracted the dis
ease by eating the meat of a
horse which died of unknown
causes.
Harold Dye.
Shaw said he thinks the GOP
can win as many as three of
Georgia’s congressional seats:
in the 4th where incumbent Ben
Blackburn is running again,
against Democrat Elliott Levit
as, in the 6th where Dr. Newt
Gingrich faces Democratic Rep.
John Flynt, and in the 7th
where former Vietnam POW
Quincy Collins meets Dr. Larry
McDonald, a Democrat.
Kirbo sees it the other way.
He thinks the Republicans will
lose the only congressional seat
they have.
Sam Spade
where are you?
LOS ANGELES (UPI) - If
Humphrey Bogart were alive
today, he might again be
playing “Sam Spade” in search
of the stolen Maltese Falcon.
The 18-inch statue, which had
eluded Bogart, Sydney Green
street and Peter Lorre in the
1941 film classic, was stolen in
real life Thursday from the Los
Angeles County Art Museum.
The bird was on loan from
Warner Bros, for a show of film
memorabilia when it was
discovered missing Thursday
from its wood-framed glass
case.
The statue is valued at S2OO,
but as a souvenir it would be
worth much more.
In the film “The Maltese
Falcon,” Bogart played “Sam
Spade,” a cynical private
investigator whose partner is
killed in a plot woven around
the sculpture.
A museum official said
several other items on the
lobby floor also were stolen.
