Authorities checked aban

Benning to search the east side
of the city Friday night for Ca

teacher.
Authorities said an uniden

Miss Galloway to drive away
from her home about 8:30 Fri
day morning while her mother
watched helplessly.
“We believe she’s somewhere
in the area, it was such a short
time between the time she was
taken away and the time we
found her car. The guy had to do
something quickly,” said
Commander Jim Wetherington
of the Columbus Police Depart

8% hours behind their sched
uled departure, and even
though they enjoyed their stay
in Britain as part of the Friend
ship Force exchange program,
they were anxious to get home.
The queen, who visited New
castle Friday on her Silver Ju
bilee tour, was scheduled to de
part from the airport about 5
p.m. British time.
For security, and to give em
ployes a glimpse of the mon
arch, the airport runways were
scheduled to be closed for one
half hour before and after her
departure.
Crew members worked
frantically to load the Geor
gians’ baggage and the plane
took off about 15 minutes before
the queen’s scheduled arrival.
The Americans’ flight al
ready had been delayed by a
flat tire the plane suffered in
Atlanta Thursday night and by
problems associated with New
York City’s massive power
blackout Wednesday night.
The Boeing 747 jet which
brought them home had taken
380 Newcastle residents, who
had been visiting Atlanta, home
to England earlier Friday. A
delay in their flight caused the
delay for the Americans.
But the Georgians, who got up
at dawn to take what they
thought would be an early
flight, took the delay in stride.
They waited in a restaurant in
the small Newcastle airport and
cheered when they saw the jet
land.

Businessmen hope fence
will keep undesirables away
ATLANTA (AP) — Business
men in Underground Atlanta
are hoping a fence and a 25-cent
admission fee will keep un
desirables away from their
buried collection of nightspots
and craft shops.
The Underground Atlanta
Merchants Association began
collecting the fee last weekend,
when the crowd was “the nicest
in Underground that we could
remember,” said Dante Steph
enson, association president.
About 14,000 admissions were
collected during the weekend,
but the crowd probably was
larger because the wrought-iron
fence being built around the
area isn’t complete, he said.
Stephenson said the gate
receipts will be used to pay for
the fence and for upkeep of the

Merchants said the fence was

Southern seeks extended service
ATLANTA (AP) - The Civil
Aeronautics Board has been
asked to allow Southern Airway
Inc. to extend its service to 17
Atlanta which has been high on
police crime statistics sheets.
Traffic rushes across the ce
ment viaducts as visitors stroll
the gaslit walkways below,
browsing at shops or eating and
drinking at bars and restau
rants.
The area once contained the
business floors of bustling
stores. But the businesses
moved up to second stories
when the viaducts were built.
The city took over Under
points in the Caribbean, Central
America and South America.
Southern, which filed the ap
plication Friday, asked the
board to include it in a CAB
ground’s garbage pickup and
other services in June when the
financially troubled merchants
association announced it could
no longer furnish them. The city
also assigned personnel for
cleanup work and extra police
men for protection.
But things are looking up for
Underground, Stephenson said.
Business for the first six months
of this year increased, and six
new businesses have opened.
