. ' vestigatie and found the mother
j I and baby lying on the floor, utv

there were other signs of sick
1 ness.

‘ burning in the tiny home and the
same light was burning Wednes

frigerator, cook stove and space
heater. The bulk tank is situated
about 35 feet from the dwelling
and the gas is piped into the
i must?.

old mother to the hospital, and
Gerald Grimes took Patsy.
Mr. Coday was at the Grime*
home when the tragedy was dis
covered.
Bonita was confused late Wed
nesday and could not recount just
what had happened.

Pool Gets Four
Absentee Votes
But Atkinson Issue
Stymied
ATKINSON The second Kind
issue try in six months in an ef
fort to acquire a municipal swim
ming pool here apparently has
I failed.
Following the Tuesday, No
vsember 5, balloting, the proposal
lacked six votes of getting 60
percent voter-approval. The un
official ballot count was 308 "for”
and "216 against”.
Monday the city council con
vened and canvassed the voting
record. Four absentee votes
were counted, all favoring the
33-thousand-dollar I Kind proposal.
This narrowed the margin to two
votes.
In June the proposal lost by 21
votes.
It'll be another six months be
fore the issue can be raised
again.
There was speculation some of
the negative votes might be for
mally challenged but Wednesday
there were no indications there
would be court action.
Some irregular voting practices
were charged in street-comer
talk, but none became a matter
of record.
