Preliminary results of proceeds from the Hereford
Lions Club's annual pancake supper and auction show
that the club grossed just over $5,000 for the dual event
last week at the Bull Barn Club members received a
report on the projects at their meeting Wednesday
Total receipts to date for the pancake supper are $2,500
according to chairman Charles Hoover and Jay Eubanks
The club still has 800 tickets outstanding, so proceeds
from that event could be much larger
Gross receipts from the auction totaled $2,775 according
to chairman Jeryl Baker and Richard Schlabs. The club's
board voted Tuesday to donate $50 of the proceeds from
the auction to Girlstown U.S.A in the name auctioneer

When oil wells are abandoned
without being plugged, shifts in
underground formations can break
the casing, and oil and other
pollutants can leak into fresh water
supplies. One method of plugging a
well is to pour concrete down the hole.
Wallace said about 800,000 oil wells
have been drilled in Texas, and only
300.000 are now in operation.
"It is estimated that thousands of

Church’* plant
dine-in tervice
SAN ANTONIO, Texas iAP> -
Church's Fried Chicken Inc. plans to
stray from its longtime take-out ap-
proach by introducing a new
"upscale" family dining restaurant
with an expanded menu, company of-
ficials say.
The first two restaurants of the San
Antonio-based national chicken and
hamburger chain will be built here
and in Atlanta, Ga., with the facility
here opening in mid-April, according
to Bill Storm. senior vice president for
finance.
The "dine-in” restaurant marks a
departure from the chain’s longtime
marketing strategy of operating
neighborhood take-out stores with
limited seating.
The establishments still will allow
the company to move customers
through very quickly and keep both
overhead and prices low, Storm said.
The first San Antonio restaurant
will have about 50 seals and offer an
expanded menu and more types of
desserts, he said.

The House Transportation Commit-

measure - already approved in the
Senate — to tighten restrictions on

olds
Rep Gerald Hill, D-Austin, is the
bill’s House sponsor. He said his
15> year-old daughter wants to drive
now, but he won’t let her.
•She’s not too popular with her
friends at school because of her dad,”
he told the committee.
The Department of Public Safety
issued more than 72,000 hardship
licenses” to 15-year-olds in 1982 State
law says DPS must approve the
licenses for 15-year-olds who say they
must drive for the general welfare”
of their family
DPS Director Jim Adams has said
15-year-old drivers are dispropor-
tionately involved in accidents.”
The bill would eliminate the
general welfare" provision and re-
quire 15-year-olds to take a driver’s
training course
Hardship licenses could still be
issued if the applicant shows ' unusual
economic hardship," illness in the
family or that he or she must drive to
attend vocational education courses.
While Kohl is firmly com-
mitted to the strategy, Vogel

SHREVEPORT, La. (AP)
— Federal prosecutors plann-
ed to begin presenting their
case today in the perjury trial
of Jo Ann Harrelson, accused
of lying to a grand jury that
indicted her on charges stem-
ming from the 1979 killing of a
federal judge
The first of 23 scheduled
government witnesses was
scheduled to be called after
the government's opening
argument Defense lawyers
waived their opening
remarks until the prosecution
finishes its case against Mrs
Harrelson, 42.

dicted Mrs Harrelson heard

That conversation was bet-
ween lawyer Joseph Chagra
and his older brother Jamiel
Jimmy" Chagra, who was
later acquitted on a charge he
paid $250,000 to Charles Har-
relson to kill the judge
In the conversation, Joseph
Chagra told his brother he
had heard, from Charles Har-
relson. that Mrs Harrelson
had bought the gun used to
murder Wood
Mrs Harrelson s court-
appointed defense lawyers.
Fred Time and Ed Mason of
Dallas, argued that at the
time Joseph Chagra was ac-
ting as a lawyer Thus, they
said, the conversation was
protected by the lawyer-
client privilege
The wiretapped conversa-
tion never was mentioned at
her trial But since it was us-

the whole case should be
thrown out. Mrs Harrelson's
