The sheriff's office is abandoning the gas pump behind the City-County Building where its vehicles have been gassing up and will now fill up at the county shops in Mills along with the rest of the county vehicles, Estes said. Presently, the sheriff's gas bill is around $600 a month and the cost of gas is greater because smaller quantities are purchased. By going in with the rest of the county, which buys gas by the tanker-full, the gas bill will be around $300 a month, he said. Although it will be more Inconvenient for deputies to gas up in Mills, Estes said the change will save the county $3,600 a year.

Pote to Show Slides The Murie Audubon Society of Casper will present Earl Pote with his glide show By Stanton WASHINGTON (UPI) Chairman Dean Burch said Wednesday he was "disgusted" with CBS President Frank Stanton for suggesting that the Federal Communications Commission does Vice President Splro T. Agnew's "dirty work." The head of the FCC told a Senate hearing Into freedom of the press that Stanton "has promulgated a conspiracy theory" ever since Agnew first attacked broadcasting networks in November.

"It has become a folklore which" is highly prized by broadcasters," Burch said, "and it goes like this: the vice president says something and the FCC will move in and do the ditry work by taking away li-censes or whatever. "The only thing wrong with the theory is that it is false. And Dr. Stanton knows it is false. He can cite no evidence that coincides with that particular theory I really am a bit disgusted that Dr.

Stanton keeps bringing up this conspiracy theory because it simply will not wash." Stanton, whose network was involved In a long dispute with the House Commerce Committee over the documentary! "The Selling of the Pentagon," preceded Burch by two weeks at the hearings by the subcommittee on constitutional rights. At that time, he expressed concern that "the dark shadow of surveillance" by the government Inhibited broadcasters' right to free speech. He said the future of American democracy is threatened by government Intimidation of the news media. Burch, as proof that Stanton's fears were exagerrated, said "in the entire history of the FCC only three cases have been decided against networks." But Nicholas Johnson, an FCC commissioner often at odds with Burch, offered what he called "a little refutation of the chairman's suggestion that there was absolutely no conspiracy between Agnew and the FCC." Johnson said the FCC issued its "ill-fated and notorious order" which "was widely interpreted as a ruling that rock music dealing with the subject of drugs should no longer be played on radio stations" after a White House meeting attended by Burch. "Shortly after Agnew discovered rock music and found that he didn't like It," Johnson said, "there was a meeting at the White House at which record company executives and broadcasters were Invited, at which Dean Burch was present, at which they were all urged to please not play such music any more and that shortly following that the FCC issued the controversial Young Man on Foot Is Struck by Auto A vounff man hit hv a rar while wnlklno along West Yellowstone at the city limits Tuesday night was treated at the hospital for leg and foot injuries and released.

These people are concerned, and this is what will save lives." Town Marshal Joseph P. Heide said he has spent "considerable time" at the notorious Intersection since a fatality occurred there July 16.

He said that he has observed 12 different times that "accidents almost happened." "It Isn't only the out-of-staters, it's us," Heide said. "We're making, in other words, our own hazard." People Not Cars "The engineer comes out here and looks at our problem for maybe two days," he added. "We're looking at it 365 days. "He comes out and counts the cars.

John D. Ding ell, and a hopeless attempt by Ren. Joseph P. Vlgorito, to cut the acreage from 40 million to 10 million acres. The UdaD-Saylor amendment, which would have frozen 50 million acres for five years pending completion of a land-planning study, was rejected by a teller vote of 218 to 177.

An additional $500 million would come from the state of Alaska's share of mineral revenues through a 2 per cent overriding royalty. The monev would go to native corporations In which each native would be given shares of stock that could not be sold for 20 years. Native villages would have five years in which to select 18 million acres of land surrounding them and later after the state selects lands granted It under the Statehood Actan additional 22 million acres elsewhere.
