Miller will abolish rule ATLANTA (UPI) — Zell Mill er, the Democratic nominee for lieutenant governor, says in a letter to incumbent and prospec tive state senators that he will move to abolish the rule that gives the lieutenant governor the power to appoint committee chairmen. Miller has declined to discuss contents of the letter until Mon day, but several lawmakers have divulged its contents. “I sincerely hope this would be the last time that any lieu tenant governor will appoint Fell asleep in movie SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) - Tito Tibeci, 24, fell asleep in an adult movie and, when he awoke, found he was locked alone in the theater. Tibeci, an unemployed me chanic, called police but said he could not remember the name of the movie or the name of the theater. Patrolman Les Adams told the man to look for an ad. Tibeci did and returned to the phone. He told the officer the name of the film.

Miller suggested in the latter that the committee on commit tees be appointed in the 1975 ses sion and the changes take effect the following year. He suggested cutting the num ber of senate committees by 40 per cent to 15, and scrapping Milledgeville Sen.

I’ll be right over.” Firemen were called to break down the front door. But the policeman decided that the ornate doors were too fancy to break up for the rescue so he called the manager, who arrived to unlock the doors and let Tibeci out. The name of the film was “Captive Couples.” Government. Miller, who is being opposed in the Nov. 5 general election by Republican John Savage, also suggested that the daily cal ender be followed as to the priority of bills for floor debate. The change would kill any at tempt by the lieutenant gov ernor, the presiding officer in the Senate, to hold back legisla tion by not calling it up for de bate. She blames apathy, red tape WATSONVILLE, Calif. (UPI) — A frustrated Vista volunteer has blamed red tape and apathy on the part of county officials for his decision to scrap plans for organizing a 20- acre cooperative farm. And Bob Ligon, a former newspaperman, said Friday that he would give away his 35- ton crop of corn, carrots, zucchini and other vegetables to the public. He said he was giving the farm back to the county. “I’m writing off $2,700 of my own money,” Ligon said. “But I’d sure like the food coop or rehabilitation program to take over the farm.” He ran the farm on his own for a year and then joined Vista. Members of a nearby cooperative provided some help. Ligon had planned to have the poor run the farm, to have county jail inmates work it for pay and to provide jobs for the mentally retarded. He said he became disheart ened because of “red tape and complications” along with a cool attitude on the party of Santa Cruz County authorities. A county spokesman said the farm probably would be used to provide food for the county jail system. Ligon said the vegetables would be given away on Sept. 22. Busbee starts campaign AUGUSTA, Ga. (UPI)-Kick ing off his general election bid for governor here, Democratic candidate George Busbee said Friday he would speak to the issues facing Georgians and not embroil himself in a personal ity competition. The House majority leader called for supporters of Lester Maddpx, who lost to Busbee in the primary runoff, to back him and pledged to campaign with out regard to special interest groups. Declaring that “I don’t intend to get involved in mudslinging because I don’t think it has any useful purpose,” the Albany lawyer said a debate with Ma con Mayor Roninie Thompson, his Republican opposition, would not add anything because both men are well known. Ga. Power income drops ATLANTA (UPI) - Georgia Power Co.’s net income in Aug ust dropped below 1973 figures for the second straight month, the utility said Friday. Under the influence of spiral ing fuel costs, operating expens es went up 37.7 per cent, pres ident Edwin I. Hatch said, even though revenue of $77.3 million was a 31.7 per cent increase over the same month a year ago. Interest charges were up 35.7 per cent, he said. Compared to the same per iod a year ago, dividend on preferred stock was down 2.18 per cent from $7.55 million to $7.38 million, he said. The monetary situation has forced the utility to cancel plan ned construction of two nuclear generating plants. The building of two other plants has been suspended. The total cut in planned construction is $975 million over the next three years. 00 (><«■»>o<■» oo o <■»()<■»■ 0 0 <■»> j FIRST CHRISTIAN CHURCH | | Tenth & Poplar Sts.

They are holding three days of joyful memorial in the cities where it all began - Arnhem, Nijmegen and Eindhoven. In an airborne operation called “Market- Garden” the Allies dropped 35,000 paratroopers on those three cities starting Sept. 17, 1944. The aim was to “lay a carpet of airbornes” 80 miles up to the Rhine bridge at Arnhem so that Field Marshall Bernard Law Montgomery’s armor and in fantry could slice through German lines into the in dustrial Ruhr and bring an early end to World War 11. It didn’t work. The Ger mans stiffened at Arnhem and threw out the British and Polish troops before British armor could waddle up the highway from the south to their relief. Only 2,500 out of 9,000 soldiers dropped on Arnhem escaped after four days of encirclement by two German panzer (tank) divi sions. Farther south, at Nijmegen and Eindhoven, the Ameri can 101st and 82nd Airborne divisions ripped up dis organized German resistance and began to roll the Ger mans back into their home land. The three retired air borne generals who led the drops are in Amsterdam as guests of the royal House of Orange to participate in reversing Market-Garden’s bad name. They are Gen. R.E. Urquhart of Ist British Airborne, who escaped from Arnhem, Gen. Maxwell D. Taylor of the U.S. 101st Air borne and Gen. James M. Gavin of the U.S. 82nd Air borne. A large party of war cor respondents who covered the Dutch liberation also is here for the party. Some of them skidded in with the glider forces, like broadcaster Walter Cronkite, then a young United Press corres pondent. Others, like this col umnist, took part in the bit ter, wrenching fight across the exposed dikes and flooded lowlands of western Holland with the Canadian Ist Army, British 2nd Army, American 104th Infantry and the Polish 10th Armored, all of them blended into Montgomery’s 21st Army Group. Yellowed sheets from a war correspondent’s scrap books tell of amphibious operations hurled across the Scheldt estuary to dislodge stubborn Germans who were preventing use of the port of Antwerp for supplying the western front. They tell of Alligator amphibious vehi cles and LCA boats breasting artillery fire from the Ger man shore to win beachheads like the one I called “seventy yards of hell” in Flushing harbor. They tell of Nazi paratroops defending their hold on ancient walled towns like Bergen-op-Zoom until Smoking down little WASHINGTON (UPI) - Americans are smoking almost as much as they did just before the Surgeon General linked ciagarette smoking to cancer 10 years ago, the Agriculture Department says. Department economists es timated in a Tobacco Situation Summary that Americans 18 and older would smoke an average of 4,270 cigarettes, or 213.5 packs this year. That is within 2 per cent of the record of 217.3 packs per capita set in 1963, the year before the surgeon general’s report.

Yet it was not all gore and gunpowder to the war re porter of three decades ago. Here is a reference to “great shaggy scarlet blossoms billowing in the breeze beside a Canadian field dressing station” set up in a little school house. And a nurse in side worried she might “lose” one patient rasping through shattered lungs —a German. A double rainbow was noted, arching over the burn ing city of Flushing (Vlissingen). And throughout those notes there was con stant reference to the joy of a people wrenched violently tree from their hated captors, of children wearing orange paper noses and waving orange bunting as they ran alongside our vehicles laugh ing and cheering — while the thunder of artillery and rat tle of machine pistol fire sounded only a tew blocks down the road. With the thought of two teen-age children back home, I was especially attentive to the pink-cheeked Dutch children who seemed to have come through the occupation virtually untainted by Nazi educational poison found in their school textbooks. An old schoolmaster on the island of Beveland, wearing his blue uniform of World War I as he emerged to lead the under ground, told me how painstakingly parents had undermined the German pro paganda fed to the children m their schools. Outside his schoolhouse at Goes the standard glorified portrait of Hitler had been taken down and hung on a tree — with a dagger thrust through the heart. Dutch memory is long. Thirty years long.
