Earl Wilson 12-A Greta Thyssen Discusses Intimate Part Of Her Life Thursday Morning, February 27, 1975 NEW Greta Thyssen breast-fed her daughter Gin-Gin and believes the breastfeeding made the daughter brighter than she'd have been otherwise. Miss Thyssen, one of the bustiest beauties in New York, imblushingly discussed this intimate part of her life quite freely with this blushing columnist at Pier 52 the other day. Gin-Gin, or Genevieve, is now 6, and since she's practically grown up now, her mother's returning to Show Business. "I'm going ahead full speed," Greta said, revealing that she's written a book, "The Liberated Mother and Daughter," and will be back studying acting with Lee Strasberg. "He.

once told me 1 had great talent as an actress but that nobody would ever believe it because of the way I looked," she said. Greta whipped out some medical articles about Chinese children being breast-fed till they're 5 or 6 years old, and Eskimos until they're 15. "My theory is that males of Western society have breast fetishes because for the past 40 years they haven't been breast- fed," she said. Daughter Gin-Gin was in a school for gifted children but Greta visited the school one day and found the gifted children slugging each other, and withdrew her for something not so gifted. Miss Thyssen, who's Scandinavian, blonde, 5-5 and still stopping traffic, has been married 11 years to Ted Gunther, who sells steel in distant places like Australia.

"He phoned me last week just to tell me he saw one of my movies there on TV." He's away weeks at a time. But she doesn't want any more children or any more breastfeeding. "However," she pointed out, "the breast was not put there just to be looked at." THE MIDNIGHT EARL Pretty actress Claudine Albuquerque, an animal lover, is on a one-woman campaign to save puppies, and older dogs, too, from being destroyed. She says, Ralph Not Ready For Presidential Bid AUSTIN, Tex. (UPI) Former Texas Sen.

Ralph Yarborough says he is flattered by a movement to draft him as a presidential candidate, but he isn't ready to run yet. The Ralph Yarborough for President Club announced its formation a week ago, hoping to convince Yarborough to oppose Sen. Lloyd Bentsen. D- in the race for the Democratic nomination in 1976. "They told me (hey were serious, but it's too early to tell," Yarborough said.

"It's too I've been in many campaigns. Sometimes I was Viruses Said Spilled Into Houston Channel AUSTIN, Tex. (UPI) Disease-causing viruses carried by industrial sludge are being spilled into the Houston Ship Channel and threaten nearby oyster beds and the public health, a state environmental engineer says.

Maloul urged Houston officials lo eliminate the sludge discharges. The TWQB ordered Ihc city of Houston to step up studies to eliminate overloading at sewage treatment plants, the cause of the discharges into the ship channel A at the city's northside Buffalo Bayou plant and Iht Sims Bayou plant. Dr. M.T. Garrelt, sewer division coordinator of the Houston Public Works Deparl- nienl, denied the Galveston Bay oyster reef area was affected by the viruses.

He claimed there was no standard method for measuring the presence of viruses, and the study was primarily concerned with measuring techniques rather lhan the public health. The study was made by Dr. Theodore G. Mclcalf, head of the Department of Microbiology at the University of New Hampshire, and Dr. Joseph L.

Melnick, a virologist and professor at Baylor College of Medicine. Their study said there were millions of dangerous viruses in the sludge. Malouf read from the study: "Viruses that cause poliomyeli- lis were found in treatment plant effluent and in ship channel waters upstream from oyster beds, extending 21 miles downstream from a treatment plant point of origin." Joe Johnson, assistant public works director, said Houston has long range plans lo solve Ihc sludge discharge problem.

Yarborough has been the darling of Texas liberals for two decades. He lost three successive races against conservatives for governor from 1952-56, then won a 1957 special election to the Senate to succeed Price Daniel who had beaten him in the governor race the previous year. Bentsen dumped Yarborough from his Senate chair in 1970, and there is no love lost between them.

"Benlsen has me outgunned in money," Yarborough said. "I've got him outgunned in public service rendered. In cases like that, money usually wins." He tried to make a comeback in 1972, but lost in a Democratic primary runoff. "I thought after 1972 that I was retired," said Yarborough, now 71. "But many people said I was just kicked out." Lukin Gilliland, organizer of the Yarborough for President Club, said "we intend to draft Ralph Yarborough for President because he has pased more bills through Congress to help people than all the Democratic and Republican candidates combined." Gilliland's group hoped to get financing from diehard Yarborough liberals to enter him against Bentsen in the first Texas presidential primary, which the legislature is expected to set up next year.

"If we can get enough financing, maybe we can enter him in New Hampshire," Gilliland said. "Personally, I think this thing is going to snowball. "Ralph Yarborough' has been and continues to be the leading liberal spokesman in Texas by a long shot." "What right have we to kill innocent animals?" and persuades friends to adopt them from the ASPCA and save them from death.

We turned our whole savings program inside out so that it'd be easier and more profitable for our customers.

When you're the Smallest Big Bank in town, you can afford to make big changes like that. And what's good forpur customers is good for our business. Let's look at the changes. First off we created our new Savings which pay for years on as little as $50. Now that's something special! Interest is paid monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually depending on the size of the deposit.

Other Savings Certificates pay for one year on the same minimum deposit. If you didn't know, what's so special is the very low $50 minimum opening it's a breakthrough! We've made some other changes too, like in Pacesetter plan. Your interest is compounded continuously on a ninety day deposit of a minimum of $25. Again, what's new and special is the low minimum. It lets you start saving almost any time with a small initial deposit.

(Add any amount at any time). Our basic Ready Money Savings plan has some new things about it too, like continuous compounding and interest paid from day of deposit to day of withdrawal (so you get every dime of interest for every day your money is on deposit). What we did was revamp the whole shebang, just to keep the smallest big bank ahead of the crowd when it comes to customer service. And there are a couple of other new things about all our savings plans that you ought to know. First, all depositors are now insured to $40,000 by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

And second, our bank-by-mail program includes round trip paid postage from you to us and back again on savings deposits. Altogether it's one heck of a special savings opportunity from the customer's viewpoint. And all the Smallest Big Bank gets out of it is you. Which is what we're after. 'Substantial interest penalty for early withdrawal, but why would you want to withdraw your money early when it's working so hard for you! the smallest bis bank..
