Atlanta mayor to fight
getting kicked out of net
ATLANTA (UPI) - Mayor
Maynard Jackson said Friday
he will fight the decision to
suspend the Atlanta Police
Department from the Georgia
Intelligence Network, calling it
“very unfair” and “arbitrary.”
The Organized Crime Preven
tion Council decided to suspend
the Atlanta police force indefi
nitely from the intelligence
network because Public Safety
Commissioner Reginald Eaves
had employed a man with a
criminal record.
“With many policemen in
Macon, Ga., under indictment
and when people of the
Columbus Sheriff’s Department
are under indictment, it strikes
me as rather odd that action
should be taken unilaterally
against Atlanta,” said Jackson.
“We’re going to carry this
one to the wall,” he said.
“We’re not going to take it

“I think the suspension was
very unfair,” said Jackson. “It
is arbitrary. It will hurt the
state of Georgia. Atlanta and
other cities in Georgia ex
change intelligence informa
tion.”
Five members of the Macon
police department, including
Detective Chief B.C. Cranford,
have been suspended on
charges of racketeering involv
ing prostitution and gambling.
After the decision was rea
ched, newsmen asked Eaves
how long he thought he would
be Atlanta’s public safety
commissioner. “It will be for a
long time,” said Eaves, “until I
can eliminate crime in the city
or reduce it considerably.”
James B. Henderson, chair
man of the Organized Crime
Prevention Council, said the
action was taken at the regular
bimonthly meeting of the
council which created the
network linking 16 city and
county police departments and
three state agencies.
The five-member council de
cided on the suspension after
questioning Capt. Howard
Baugh Sr., head of the city’s
intelligence division, behind
closed doors.
Henderson said the reason for
the suspension was Eaves’
employment of Daniel Odom as
a personal secretary “for
approximately six months in
this position before his services
were terminated” and that
Odom had used “numerous
false identity cards and alia
ses.”
He said that complete confi
dence in members of the
network was essential and that
apparently there was not that
confidence in the Atlanta Police
Department.
Odom had past convictions
for possession of heroin and a
forged draft card, according to
published news stories. He was
also charged with marijuana
possession here but that case
was dismissed in court this
week on grounds his car was
illegally searched.
College
‘patients ’
in jars
SWAINSBORO - Some
Emanuel County Junior
College biology students are
pulling lor their patients to
stay alive - in sealed gallon
mayonnaise jars.
The students are involved
in a required project in
Professor G. Marvin Baker's
Biology 121 class designed to
•‘teach students the im
portance of the in
terdependence of all parts of
the ecosystem.
To the unintiated who pass
by the lab room door each
morning, it might almost
seem that some critically ill
patients were sheltered
inside as cries oi “Oh 1 m so
glad you’re still alive!" or,
“Come on, you can make it a
few more weeks," come
from inside the lab.
The reason for all the
anxiety over a meager little
fish is that all important
standard system ot the
academic world: grades.
Under Mr Baker's
system, the longer the
ecosystem succeeds, the
better grade the student
receives. With a system like
that, it is understandable
how even the most stoic oi
collegians could get excited
over the fate of a little tish.
As tor the student opinion
ol the project, it ranged from
those who thought it was
“interesting," to the young
man who had a slightly
different attitude.
“1 think it's a rotten idea,"
he said. "Any first grader
can throw a fish and some
weeds in a jar of water.”
When asked to exhibit his
own ecosystem, however,
the student could only grin
sheepishly and hold up a jar
of foul looking liquid with six
inch scum on top. In the
understatment of the year he
said simply, “It died."

Found out
hard way
MOULTRIE, Ga. (UPI) -
Billy Griner, 17, found out the
hard way Friday that a skunk
by any other name smells just
as bad.
Billy was backing a car out
of the driveway when an uncle
living next door shouted that
his pet skunk, which is
deodorized, had gotten away
and was running across a field.
Billy gave chase, grabbed the
skunk and found out to his
dismay he had the wrong one.
Billy’s skunk was still in the
house.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
SASSARI, Italy (UPI) -
Francesca Chessa, who has
avoided serving a prison
sentence by remaining almost
continually pregnant, gave
birth this week to her 18th
child, a boy, authorities said.
Mrs. Chessa, wife of a
Sardinian street cleaner, was
convicted of fraud and forgery
bills and under Italian law
cannot be jailed while pregnant
or immediately after giving
birth.
But her husband said enough
is enough, even if she has to go
to jail.
“Now there are too many
children. I’ve decided to stop
the pregnancies,” Chessa said.

Utilize the sim
Although you should keep your draperies closed at night and on
extremely cold days, you can take advantage of the heat from
longer spring days. Leave curtains open on the sunny side of the
house during daylight hours.
—S.F., Bordentown, N.J.
Sensible sealing
Test for worn door seals on your refrigerator, which can leak
cold air and make it work harder. To test, just close the door on a
dollar bill. If there is no resistance when you pull it out, you
should replace the seals.
—B.S., Framingham, Mass.
Spring tune-up
It’s time for a spring tuneup for your car in accordance with
the specifications in the owner’s manual. Usually a major tuneup
is needed every 10,000 miles. Also check the choke for proper
operation and replace, air and fuel filter element.

Keep it cool
Jelly, pickles, peanut butter and mustard are examples of items
that don't necessarily have to be refrigerated. Check the label; if
it doesn’t say “refrigerate after opening” save the space for
another item.
Keep items tightly covered. Coffee will keep longer if it is
refrigerated after opening.

Sensible steaming
Take advantage of the steam generated when you take a hot
shower. Wrinkles often disappear from clothing hung in a steamy
bathroom and will save you the time and energy you would have
used ironing.

Students
evacuate
Athens dorm
ATHENS, Ga. (UPI) - A fire
that apparently started in a
burned-out fuse in a University
of Georgia dormitory caused
the evacuation of about 200
students Friday, but there were
no injuries.
University officials said the
blaze started from a fuse
located in a transformer at
Russell Hall.
Firemen arrived on the scene
within minutes of the first
alarm at about 5:30 and quickly
extinguished the blaze.
There was .no immediate
estimate of the damage caused
by the fire, which forced the
dormitory to go to emergency
power.
