State Hasn't Gone Under Civil Service No announcement has been made by Gov. Ray Blanton to extend civil service status to 22,000 state employes, contrary to reports yesterday afternoon, according to Blan-ton's press secretary. Brooks Parker said yesterday Blanton has made no announcement of such a plan, although the extension of civil service status to 22,000 state employes is being considered by the governor.
