Griffin Daily News Wednesday, June 1,1977 Page 2 People Guy Lombardo PORT STANLEY, Canada (AP) — Guy Lombardo and his Royal Canadians celebrate their golden anniversary Saturday at an Ontario club only a stone’s throw from the place the orchestra first played in 1927. Lombardo began his career here at Hopkin’s Casino. The group will play at the Stork Club, only 2,000 feet from where the casino stood. Farrah not on set LOS ANGELES (AP) - “Charlie’s Angels” begins pro duction Wednesday for its second season, but Farrah Fawcett-Majors won’t be in the episode. The role written for Miss Fawcett-Majors will be played by Cheryl Ladd, who was signed last week to play her younger sister. Miss Fawcett-Majors, 30, who had played Jill Munroe in the hit ABC series, told the producer last March she would not return. She said she planned to pursue a career in motion pictures. She said she hadn’t signed a contract, but the producer sued, saying that accepting its terms and compensation amounted to the same thing. Miss Ladd, 25, was signed to play Kris Munroe, either as a fourth angel or to temporarily step into Miss Fawcett- Major’s role if she did not return. The other angels are Kate Jackson and Jaclyn Smith. Henry Kissinger NEW YORK (AP) — An aide to Henry Kissinger says the former Secretary of State hasn’t decided if he’ll teach at Columbia University. “He still hasn’t made up his mind whether to accept the Columbia offer," the aide said Tuesday. A spokesman at the university said the offer of an en dowed chair in political science was still open to Kissinger, and added, "The next piece of news on this is expected from Kissinger’s office.” The New York Times said in its Tuesday editions that Kissinger might turn the offer down out of sensitivity to criticism of the offer and because other commitments in Washington would make the position inconvenient.

(AP) - The attorney for convicted murderer Curfew Davis and the judge at Davis’ resentencing trial traded sharp words Tues day as the defense attempted to show bias in the composition of Davis’ original trial jury. Defense attorney Millard Farmer told Superior Court Judge Lamar Knight that he would attempt to prove bias by age, race and sex both in com position of the jury and in the Troup County voter list from which it was drawn. Davis, 40, was convicted of murder and sentenced to die in the electric chair for the 1974 slaying of Anne Starnes, 22, of Columbus. Last December the U.S. Su preme Court let Davis’ con viction stand, but overturned the death sentence because po tential jurors opposed to capital □ LEON BATES’ REALTY £1 420 WEST SLATON STREET * GRIFFIN.

Farmer contended Knight was biased against Davis. On Tuesday, after several ex changes between Knight and Farmer, another defense mo tion was overruled, prompting Farmer to say, “I think the rul ings of this court are designed to muffle....” Knight broke in to say, “Mr. Farmer, don’t you make that statement one more time.” Knight earlier overruled two motions, one seeking to prohibit admission of evidence of pre vious convictions and one chal lenging the composition of the grand jury. Government believes women should have credit identity By MIKE DOAN Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON (AP) - The federal government believes a woman should have a credit identity of her own. A Federal Reserve Board rule taking effect today requires credit companies to meet requests to record information about a married couple in the name of both the wife and the husband. The rule is designed to aid women who become divorced, widowed or who want their own accounts. “If a woman gets divorced or widowed and tries to open a new account, it’s very, very hard to do,” a Federal Reserve Board spokesman said. "She has no credit identity. So this is an attempt to rectify this situ ation.” Asked if the rule might stir up a dispute among some couples, CARE-FREE DISCOUNT CENTER 134 SOUTH HILL ST. 11 /fev. • PEPPERMINT •SPEARMINT SALE STARTS THURSDAY 9 A.M. * C,HHAMOH * FRU,T ft A WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO LIMIT QUANTITIES • BUBBLE GUM ■f l “ u v «« — - ■■ o u' I ’ ua 199 vaiue SCOPE ■Bl FFFFRDFNT MmiTMWACN PADn f fl “GEE YOUR HAIR SMELLS |E3 ™ ClWtni MOUTHWASH GARGLE Z-A TERRIFIC fesM DENTURE CLEANSER /fl® SHAMPOO OR CONDITIONER H| TABLETS - *1 33 1 L 89 c — - s l l2 1.69 Value 2.75 Value 1.05 Value H MISS BRECK w CACHET sghfck SCHICK bftte Ulin onmv Rl SPRAY MIST INJECTOR SOPER [g HAIR SPRAY Q) TRAVELER SIZE Wm chromium blades 1 69! _ 33! 1.38 Value F? 1.79 Value flB 2 69 Vaiue - DISMISS (3 ALBERTO-BAISJM PEPTO-BISMOI DISPOSABLE BOUM an CBKBITIONER __ B& 2-49 c eL 89 C S* $ 1 49 2.70 Value —||l v 1.63 Value SHOWER TO SHOWER » a ONE-A-DAY SQUIRB H ® pHßals H aspirin one s<i6 Mn 77 c bol OO 30Iable,s *| Wffy 350 f J 2.50 Value 55c Value 99c Value VITA E n CUTEX » SO DRY )' \ HORMONE M naiipo!

Mil* 54 c s l l9 -■ fig c the spokesman said, “That’s a family matter.” The new rule is a result of a 1974 law banning discrimination by marital status in the grant ing of credit. The federal board which sets monetary policy, was instructed by Congress to write the regulation. Under the rule, credit card companies and some big mer chants will mail out letters with their bills in the next few months describing rights under the Equal Credit Opportunity Act. “If your account with us is one that both husband and wife signed for or is an account that is being used by one of you who did not sign, then you are en titled to have us report credit information relating to the ac count in both your names,” the letter says. “If you choose to have credit information concerning your account with us reported in both your names, please fill in and sign the statement below and return it to us.” The letter goes on, “Federal regulations provide that signing your name below will not change or increase your or your spouse’s legal liability on the account.” The form can be returned to the credit company with the signature of either spouse. A Federal Reserve spokes man said the new rule applies to open-ended credit accounts, in which people can add to their accounts at will. It does not affect department store ac counts which are open-ended only to pay off a few purchases, or most grocery stores or banks, which are covered by other regulations.
