Chattooga
Awaiting
Signature
Inland Container Corp. had
not signed a contract with
Chattooga County for a 50-acre
landfill site off Highway 48
near Menlo as of last Friday.
Commissioner Harry
Powell said the firm was sup
posed to have signed the con
tract in late May but the pro
posal had to be taken to the
company's headquarters in
Texas.
The commissioner wasn't
available Wednesday after
noon to determine whether In
land had taken action on the
contract.
Clark Reynolds, North
Geo]ggia regional manager for
the Environmental Protection
Division (EPD) of the Georgia
Department of Natural
Resources, told The News on
May 25 that the contract had
lz)gen signed by Inland on May
Powell said last Friday that
he didn't know where Reynolds
had gotten that information.
However, Reynolds said on
May 26 that Powell had told
Jennifer Daniels of the EPD
staff that the contract had
been signed.
The commissioner said Fri
day that the tract was located
south of Highway 48, not north
of the roadway as had been
reported earlier. It is located
within an isolated area bound
ed by Perennial Springs Road,
Highway 48, Peach Orchard
Road, and County Roads 82
and 102.

PMS Relief
Many women suffer from what is
commonly referred to as PMS (pre
menstrual syndrome). Monthly symptoms
include, but are not limited to, tension,
irritability, breast tenderness, depression,
and swelling. According to the
Handbook of Nonprescription Drugs, 70
to 90 percent of women report having
PMS, with 20 to 40 percent indicating
some degree of mental or physical inca
pacitation.
Prescription Medicines: Medicines
used with varying degrees of success for
PMS include oral contraceptives, pro
gesterone, non-steroid pain medicines,
diuretics, and medicines for mental
difficulties (e.g., tranquilizers and anti
depressants).
Nonprescription Medicines: Ibu
profen, aspirin, and acetaminophen
provide pain relief in many women.
Pyridoxine, which is vitamin 86, is
included in some PMS medicines based
on the theory that vitamin B 6 suppresses
the production of prolactin, a hormone
that is found in high levels in some PMS
sufferers. &

Associates, the architectural
firm in Dalton that drew the
plans for the additional
classrooms for Lyerly and
Pennville schools.
The board approved a
future payment of $6,240, but

the firm to receive an amount

before bids were opened.
