Is the Man" mature? Is President news conference on the economy mature? If we accept the label that some shows are then logic leads us to the conclusion that all other shows are THUS THE network warning system smacks of a public relations con job The big reason why we have the labels is because government has pressured the networks to minimize violence and sex on the air We have the warning and politicians think it will create millions of parental chats in the living rooms of America To wit: a father says moments before Baltimore" is aired here show is for mature folks about prostitutes You know them painted Lii -Bv CLAY ARIES MAH 21 AM 19 5-78-85-88 Your

Sergio Jr Ana and Roland Underinsured Homeowners Get Warning AUSTIN (UPI) A study of current increased costs in home construction shows many homeowners may be underinsured an insurance spokesman says The cost of housing construction has jumped about 70 per cent since 1967 making a home valued at $20000 in 1967 worth $34000 today says Darby Hammond President of Southwestern Insurance Information Service WHO have not increased their insurance even in the past year are un-derinsured and would face drastic losses if an accident he says The insurance industry Hammond says proposed homeowners increase the amount of insurance to the value of prices and raise the amount of deductible in their policies Insurance companies must spend the same amount of money investigating cases to pay small claims as they do large ones Hammond said The homeowner can save money if the deductible is raised on policies so the home-owner pays for small losses and insurance companies pay for large ones Company expenses are cut down if the handling of small claims is eliminated he says HAVE you PLACED YOUR VALENTINE PERSONAL YET?
