Other gas supply projects in which the Columbia System is participating include: Expanded drilling programs in the Southwest and Appalachia; purchase of 78 billion cubic feet of gas annually from two other reforming plants to be constructed by other companies on the East Coast; importation of gas in liquid form by ship from Algeria through a terminal to be built on Chesapeake Bay; importation of gas from the Alaskan and Canadian Arctic; and participation in research aimed at developing a commercially-feasible process to convert coal Prospective residential customers of Columbia Gas must apply for natural gas service for new homes by July 10 and must have these homes under construction before Oct. 1 to receive natural gas service under provisions of an order, If by utilities Commission of Ohio, K.E. Huntzinger, manager for Columbia Gas of Ohio in the Fremont area, explained today. Huntzinger said the action by the PUCO was a result of the company's request filed Feb.

29, 1972, to discontinue new residential sales and applies to all single and multi-family residential structures that are not currently connected to the company's lines. The PUCO order stated that Columbia Gas of Ohio may refuse service unless the prospective customer has a written application on file within 15 days from the date of the order and submits evidence of the start of construction prior to the Oct. 1 deadline. Huntzinger emphasized that present residential customers are in no way affected by the sales freeze. He said applications for gas service are available at the local gas company office.

The company will honor all previous written applications for gas service, provided buildings are under construction by the Oct. 1 cutoff date, he said. He said "under construction," as defined by the PUCO order, means "completion of the footers and, if the unit includes a basement, the completion of foundation walls" of a building and, in the case of mobile home parks, "where all construction of pads has been completed and the park awaits only the arrival of its 'tenant' mobile home provided the park is completely prepared prior to Oct. 1, 1972." Huntzinger said that even if a customer does not plan to build this year a written application for gas service should be filed at the local gas company office. "Customers who apply for service but who do not get construction under way by the cutoff date will be placed on a priority list maintained at each local gas company office," Huntzinger said.

"When additional supplies of natural gas become available, we will extend service to these customers first." "It is impossible at this time to predict when the residential sales limitations or limitations on sales to industrial or commercial customers can be lifted," Huntzinger said, pointing out that it will depend entirely on when the company will be able to obtain new supplies of gas. Huntzinger said the Columbia Gas System, parent company of Columbia Gas has a variety of supply development projects under way. Huntzinger said the earliest date any new source of gas would be available for market in Ohio is July, 1973, when a Columbia Gas System reforming plant that will produce 88 llik: SHOP TH URSOAV NIGHT Til SHOP FRIDAY NIGHT 'TIL. 9 SHOP- MONDAY NIGHT TIL 9 Trj 'lV Viet Assault INears Quang Tri SAIGON AP) Helicopters leap frogged hundreds of South Vietnamese paratroopers over supporting armor today and landed them within four miles of tjuang Tri City as Saigon's forces pressed ahead with thoir offensive to recapture South Vietnam's northernmost provi noe Associated Press correspondent Holger Jensen reported that the assault zone was so heavily pounded by U.S. B52 bombers before the dawn lift that some of the helicopter pilots couldn't see through the cloud of dust and smoke They had to land several hundred of the troops at alternate sites.

In addition to assistant to William E. Culbertson, who was employed as business manager, Miss Kinney was in charge of training licensed practical nurses and she was also responsible for organizing the training classes for School Aides, Medical Cadets and Candy Stripers. Five years ago the work load increased and a separate director of nurses was required. She assumed this duty and Culbertson became administrator. After a brief rest, Miss Kinney plans to return to her home in Bowling Green and devote time to work in the Hospital Guild at Bowling Green and with the Red Cross volunteers.

(AP) -Repairs on the sternwheel pleasure-boat Delta Queen are expected to be completed sometime today following a collision with a pier of an Ohio River bridge late Wednesday night. The steam boat is expected to leave the Louisville area Saturday morning and continue downriver to Evansville, Ind.

The craft will return to Cincinnati Sunday night. A spokesman for Green Line Steamers of Cincinnati, which operates the Queen, said damage in the collision was confined to the port bow.

Mohamed Hassanein Haikal devoted a full page of his semiofficial newspaper Al Ahram today to the role of Russia in the middle east. He wrote: "The Soviet Union is not in a rush, at least for the coming six months, to break the present state of no-war-nopeace in the Middle East, in such a way as to affect its new relations with the United States.

Lehman, a Republican, contends his constitutional rights of free speech and equal protection were violated when Metromedia, advertising agent for Sh.aker Heights Rapid Transit, refused his advertisements. The Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court rejected his request to compel acceptance of the advertii; semen ts and that decision was affirmed by an appellate court. The appeals court said the right to post political signs, particularly on public property, is not absolute, but rather is subject to reasonable regulation by public officials.

It Auto COLUMBUS, Ohio AP) State Highway Director Phillip Richley says a two-cent-a-gallon increase in the state gasoline tax is needed as "the only clear answer to the need for more income." Richley said funds available for highway construction are declining each year and next year the emphasis will have to be on maintenance of present roads rather than planning new projects.

Contributing to the decline, he said, is the amount of money needed to retire old highway construction bonds, which last year totaled $103 million. So much state gasoline tax money is going for payment of debts, Richley said, that federal matching fund money for highway construction is being lost. He estimated two-cent hike in the current seven-cent gasoline tax would bring in an additional $100 million a year.

Conviction Prompts Review LONDON AP The British government today began a re-view of the handling of criminally insane persons pro-miunced cured after a freed prisoner was convicted of doing it again. 1 lome Secretary Reginald Maudling called for a check on all 331 persons released from the Broadmoor Prison Mental Hospital in the past 12 years. He ordered that no criminal be discharged from mental hospitals until he had been pronounced cured by an independent panel, instructed that the procedures for supervision after release be streng thened and appointed two committees to study the laws on subject. This resulted from the sentencing Thursday of Graham Frederick Young, 24, to life imprisonment for giving fatal doses' to two men he worked with and poisoning others who survived.

Because a defendant's previous record is not allowed in evidence prior to the verdict, it was not until the jury found Young g.uil ty that the judge was told he had served nine years in Broadmoor for poisoning his father, his sister and a classmate all of whom recovered. He had been released as a "model inmate." But even wv hile a teen-ager in Broadmoor, Young was "experimenting" on other patients. Judiciary Committee Told To Act WASHINGTON (AP) Chairman William M.

Deputies said that farmers were authorized to cultivate hemp during the war for rope making. The marijuana was cut, stacked and burned Thursday. Deputies said they doubted any residents in the area could be affected by the smell since the field is located in an isolated part of a farm.

Deputies said if the marijuana had been cultivated and processed for street use, its value would have been about $500,000. County Engineer Stanley Per-in expressed hopes he could be given permission to treat the field to prevent regrowth of the marijuana. Deputies declined to disclose the name of the farmer on whose land the marijuana was found growing. "He didn't even know what it was, and it could have been left over from legal hemp plantings in World War II," one official said. Deputies said they learned indirectly about the field Tuesday from an informant working on drug arrests.
