might. torn extreme southfbn wvim The Reno-Sparks Convention Authority will go ahead on its plans to build a dining facility expansion at the Centennial Coliseum as a result of commitments by two Reno banks on short-term loans totaling $1.4 million. The banks reversed a decision made two months ago when they turned down the loans. Authority manager Bill Harrison said Wednesday Nevada National Bank has agreed to loan $800,000 over a five-year period, at a fluctuating interest rate 4'2 per cent less than the prime rate in San Francisco at any given time. The commitment for the remaining $600,000, according to Harrison, was made by First National Bank of Nevada, again for a five-year term, at a fixed interest rate of 7 per cent per year.

Harrison said the authority now plans to go to bid on the project in mid-December and award bids in January. The authority first gave notice of its intention to seek the short-term loan in July. The Nevada Tax Commission gave its approval in early August. 7 Authority board members first decided in July to seek the loan in order to finance the purchase of a 214-acre golf course site north of Sparks from Joe and Sally Conforte. The dining facility was to have been financed directly from authority revenue.

In July, the board gave the golf course its first project priority and shifted the dining facility to second priority. County Commissioner Gerry Grow, an authority board member, since has acknowledged that the priorities were switched to maneuver Reno Mayor Sam Dibitonto into voting for the loan. Dibitonto has been opposed to the Conforte land purchase. In switching priorities at the time, the authority board also switched the purpose of the loan from financing the golf course to financing the dining facility. The authority must complete the dining area extension by 1977, because it already has committed the facilities for a national bowling convention that year.

Warren H. Gould Reno native Warren Hymers Gould of 1451 Alta St. died in a Reno hospital Wednesday.

He was 80. Born July 12, 1894, to William E. and Prudence Elmira Hymers Gould, he had been a lifetime resident of Nevada. He was a member of a pioneer family. His father came to Nevada as a child with his family to Sierra Valley.

His father also owned a ranch near Pyramid Lake for many years.

He said a small number of advertisers would sponsor the space coverage, which at about $70,000 a commercial minute meant they were spending a great deal of money. "The ad agencies are essentially judging what we'll see on the tube. If they'd rather see five people on a talk show than living history, they can. They sell the air time." Schirra said it was through the space program that he became interested in land conservation and preservation, that it gave him an opportunity to work on ecological problems.

He said to live in a spaceship the crew had to develop its own environment, a safe one. Observations are made from the spacecraft and photographs taken and analyzed. "You can't see the two major earthquake fault lines in California from a plane from Los Angeles, but you can sure see them from a spaceship." "I think every astronaut has a more definitive statement to make on ecology," he said. Former astronaut Wally Schirra was in Reno briefly Wednesday to promote Sierra Park, a development in the hills near Virginia City. Stopping at the Reno Press Club.jSchirra commented on the space program, saying work shouldn't stop because of the coun- try's economic problems.

And he defended American technology against foreign competition for consumer goods. We have an "illusion of overseas quality," he said. "We came to America to leave Europe, but now we think they're great." When there are economic troubles, knowledge becomes a luxury item and expendable he said. "You can prune a tree, but you can prune it so much you kill it." Schirra, who was command pilot on Gemini 6 in 1965 and commander of the 11-day flight of Apollo 7 in 1968, said financial reasons aren't the only ones that killed the moonshots. "There was a loss of interest," he said.

His mother's family owned the Hymers Ranch, which was located across the street from the Gould property.

A funeral is scheduled for 43 cdy Horse manure in court The evidence was horse manure.

It was brought into Washoe District Court in a trial in the case of a Hawthorne man's damage suit against the State of Nevada. John Kallio's neck was broken in a July, 1970 accident on Highway 95, a few miles north of Winnemucca, when the car in which he was riding struck a horse. Kallio claims a fence erected by the State Highway Department and federal Bureau of Land Management on the west side of the road caused horses to bunch up in the roadway area. Testifying in support of that contention Wednesday was Dr. Michael Pontrelli, a wildlife ecologist, who said a study of the area indicated that there had been a heavy concentration of horses.

He based that opinion on visual analysis of "horse droppings" in the area. Droppings that have turned largely white have probably gone through a winter, he said. Those found in the accident vicinity were of this coloring, he said. His conclusion, Pontrelli added, was a "value decision." In cross examining Pontrelli, Dep. Atty.

Gen. Norman Robison brought out four separate boxes, each differently colored, but each containing the same thing dried horse manure. Robison said the droppings which were fully encased in the wood boxes with glass tops were taken from the accident vicinity. He asked if Pontrelli could estimate the age of the displayed droppings. Pontrelli studied the four boxes while jury members stood and craned their necks to see them also.

Pontrelli estimated that most of the manure appeared to be more recent than the last winter. Testimony in the trial is expected to conclude today, with final arguments due Friday. 61 62 70 53 78 55 93 55 76 49 83 83 65 68 70 92 70 72 3v i cay 44 28 40 47 42 64 clr .10 clr clr clr clr clr clr clr .23 cdy 24 clr jeun nances jingieiun vs. RODerr Allan Singleton; Delores J.

The audit turned over to the state Legislative Commission on Wednesday says "a potential liability" exists because the fund holds only $1.4 million although $4.2 million worth of bond policies exist. Legislative Auditor Earl Oliver also said about $2.3 million of the bonds were for local government officials who could get coverage from private firms at a lower rate than the state's. He said abolishing the fund would allow state officials to come under a separate blanket bond system that provides $200,000 coverage for all employes not carried on the trust fund. But he said the state treasurer, who controlled more than $146 million last fiscal year, should get separate insurance because the blanket fund ceiling of $200,000 might be ''inadequate." Oliver said he agreed with a 1960 study of the fund which concluded "the state should flee the bonding and surety ship business as if from a plague." Casino directors named. LAS VEGAS (AP) New R.

Wynn as secretary and corporate directors have director; Jessie R. Levy as Post office, county in squabble The U.S. Postal Service has filed a complaint against Washoe County Recorder Ardis C. Brown in U.S. District Court in Reno, saying she refused to record a transfer deed on property it purchased for a Sparks facility.

iThe complaint says Mrs. Brown has continued to refuse to record the property transfer since July 25, and denies any duty to do so as county recorder. Assistant U.S. Atty. Sam Coon said the county's refusal to record the deed stems from a Nevada statute requiring the State Tax Commission to approve "the acquisition by the United States of America of any land or water right or interest therein in this state In its complaint, the Postal Service says it does not have to get the consent of any local government or agency before recording such a deed, nor does it have to pay recorder's fees.
