Rosser also predicted the council would not have any difficulty approving the wage hike. Also on the agenda Is a proposal to raise sewer rates from 84 38 to 13 in the city and W.S8 to $7 JO outside the city. Rosser said the Increase Is needed to meet new federal guideline.

"We have 70,000 TV households," he said "I question seriously we're getting 1,000 from that program." Stalvey believes ratings aren't all behind the show's cancellation.
