TALLAHASSEE (AP) A liberalized abortion bill, similar to one on the House calendar, narrowly cleared a Senate committee Monday and raised the sponsor's hopes of full legislative approval. No one was more suprised by the bill's passage through the Senate Health, Welfare and Institutions Committee than the sponsor, Sen. Robert Shevin, D-Miami.

"I'm encourage. I think the chances of overall passage shot up as a result," Shevin said. The bill approved 6-4 is similar to one already out of committee in the House. Shevin described the House bill, however, as "a much tighter bill." The proposed legislation would allow abortions in case of rape or incest, or if the health of the child would be severly affected in the opinion of three physicians. An abortion could, be performed also to protect the health or life of the mother.

The bill now goes to the Senate Judiciary Committee. ir new home ft enjoy years and years, We have anew place to hang our has Metropolitan's Pensacola Office tm mm nit UIU uuu Will yout Insurance pty enough la replace the borne you lost?
