By CAROL JEFFARES Tribune Staff Writer DADE CITY As a native and resident of Dade City, 43-year-old Phil Williams has been involved with the development of the small east Pasco town through the years.

There have been many changes, Williams recalled, including that of his own' business, Williams Fashion Center. His grandfather first opened the store in 1908, selling a variety of items from fabric to grove ladders. The business moved to the present location on Seventh Street during the 1920s. After working for six years in New York and California with well-known fashion establishments, Williams purchased the business 16 years ago, concentrating on men's and women's apparel. Through his efforts he has kept up with trends throughout the years, offering top quality designs to area residents.

In recent years he has added novelty gift items and plants to the inventory. Keeping pace with the European influence in the United States, Williams will soon offer something else new to Dade City. He is converting part of his establishment into a European-type restaurant, "Lunch on Limoges," named after the French town made famous for its fine china. The restaurant, Williams said, is scheduled to open in May and will be "very French," featuring an open kitch- NEW PORT RICHEY Something very new and at the same time very old has been added to the Chasco Fiesta scheduled to begin here this week. Three top-notch U.S.

Army units will give performances Monday, March 30, beginning at 6:30 p.m. at the Gulf Comprehensive High School athletic stadium. Performing will be the Continental Army Group, the U.S. Army's official ceremonial unit and escort to the President of the United States; the Golden Knights, the Army's world record-holding parachute team and the "Gathering" Band, the Army's concert band. The Commander-in-Chiefs Guard is a replica of the one created for General George Washington during the Revolutionary War.

The guard, consisting of 66 officers and men, wears Revolution-era uniforms, carries muskets, and performs drills. The Golden Knights parachute team now holds 12 world records, having captured five' from the Soviet Union last year. The "Gathering" Band is the Army's major concert unit, and has played all types of music for audiences all over the world. The evening's events will begin at 6:30 p.m. with the Golden Knights, the Commander-in-Chiefs Guard will perform at about 7 p.m., and the guard will be followed with a concert by the Army concert band.

Seating for 48 will be provided, and the cuisine will feature light foods such as salads, quiche, sandwiches and desserts, served from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Homemade breads will highlight the menu at "Lunch on Limoges," Williams said. He is presently in the process of testing the bread recipes to be used. "When I was a kid, a woman across the street taught me how to make bread," Williams explained. However, he added, it's not as difficult as in prior years. Now that he has a Cuisinart food processor, "it's a breeze," he said.

An excellent recipe for Dill Bread, Williams said, is from a collection by Uta Haben, a Broadway actress. This bread is "very moist," he said, adding it doesn't have to be made with a Cuisinart. Williams also suggested using the recipe with fennel or caraway seeds, Phil Williams slices another loaf of his bread, which he makes using a food processor. Tribune Photo By Mark Elias Con Man.

The judge' agreed. Since 1901, said Abagnale, no one had ever escaped from Atlanta Federal Prison. But 13 days after his arrival at the prison, Abagnale was on the loose again. He broke out by posing as a prison inspector. In one hotel, while on the lamb, Abagnale said he saw lawmen surrounding his room.

He said he beat them to the rear entrance and told them he was an FBI agent. "He's in there," Abagnale said he told the lawmen, pointing to his room. The lawmen burst into the empty room. Abagnale escaped. Finally, he was caught again in New York.

There were no more escapes and Abagnale served four and a half years in federal prison. Hie time in prison, he said, sobered him. "It made me realize I wasted 10 years of my life. Ten years down the drain. I grew up way too fast and it wasn't worth it.

If I had to do it over again, I'd take time to smell the roses. Released from prison in 1974, he moved to Houston where he runs his consulting business. The very people he once conned, the banks he swindled, the police he eluded and even the airlines he hoodwinked now seek his help in solving elaborate white collar crimes. From Page 1 There was no hard feelings after they found out they weren't really hired by the airline. In fact, three of the girls later went on and became stewardesses," he said.

With the FBI breathing down his neck, Abagnale decided to vacate the cockpits of jumbo jets and move to Atlanta. He settled into a singles apartment and told neighbors he was a doctor. "They asked me what kind of work I did. I looked around the building, saw there were no kids and immediately decided I should be a pediatrician," he said. Eventually, however, other doctors were introduced to him and he was forced to visit the library for a quick dose of medical education.

One night, he said, there was a shortage of doctors at a nearby hospital and he was asked to help out. He did. The nurse gave him a few clip boards to read, he said, but he couldnt understand what was written. However he said he did notice that the scribbling by other physicians was barely legible. "So I made the rounds, picked up the clip boards scribbled a few initialed, them and everyone thought I was doing afine job," he said.

When confronted with a patient, Abagnale said he turned to an intern, asked for the intern's opinion and then acted on that. That act continued for a year, he said. And then it was on to Baton Rouge. At' age 19 he took the Lousiana Bar exam. He failed.

He tried again. He failed. But on the third try, after a few weeks of study in the library, he passed and was hired by the attorney general under the name of Bob Conrad. The FBI closed in once more and Abagnale said he left for Provo, Utah, and a stint as a 'sociology professor. "In many ways that was the easiest role.

I read the journals and always stayed a chapter ahead of my students," he said. He remained just long enough to elude authorities and then headed back to southern France for a respite. There, his luck ran out. "An Air France stewardess spotted me and contacted Interpol. I was followed home and arrested.

Twenty six countries wanted me extradited. In addition, I was wanted in all 50 states," he said. Six months in a dingy French prison followed. He was then sent to Sweden to face charges, but pressure from the FBI led to his being sent to New York. While the plane was landing, he said, he went to the restroom and discovered the toilet was loose.

He waited til the plane was taxiing to the terminal, pulled the toilet away from its fixture and escaped in the night. He was later arrested and sent to Atlanta to face federal charges.

The county would be responsible for paying that amount until a predetermined ceiling was reached. Like the others, this company proposes to build a new hospital, probably in the Zephyrhills area. Company officials estimated construction would take about two years. Upon completion, the old building may be turned into a nursing home or retirement apartments.

Now that the three top bidders have been selected, the committee's next task is to rank them. That will be done after each company has answered a set of questions which County Attorney Gerald Figurski said must still be formulated. The questions will be designed to nail down the specifics of each proposal, he said. A lot of things were discussed verbally with the bidders but have not been put in writing. The main purpose of the questionaires is to get that information in writing so the committee will know every detail of each proposal, said Figurski.

Those questionaires are expected to be ready Monday and must be completed and returned by noon on April 3 for final review by the committee. Representatives from each company also will be invited one at a time to answer any questions the committee may have. A final review is scheduled for 2 p.m. on April 3 and may continue into April 4, which is a Saturday, if necessary. The committee has agreed to a weekend meeting because it wants to have a recommendation ready for the commission when it meets April 6.

In addition to completing a questionaire, each of the top three bidders also will be required to post a $25,000 bond. Figurski suggested the measure to en: sure each company will negotiate with the county In good faith. Bond money will be returned to the companies that are not selected, he said. 3-26 Answer to yesterday's puzzle. ah as yet undetermined location in east Pasco.

The company has also agreed to negotiate for the outright purchase of the hospital and grounds if the county would rather do it that way. Indigents would be cared for at no cost to the county. Although this company is affiliated with the Seventh Day Adventist Church, there would be no requirement that employees, doctors or patients be members of the church. The company now runs 80 hospitals throughout the United States including the 900-bed Florida Hospital in Orlando. American Health Care Enterprises: This is a relatively new firm that now is involved primarily in the operation of a handful of nursing and retirement homes.

It proposes to purchase both the business and the property for between $1 million and $1.6 million. Representatives of the firm met with the committee Wednesday and indicated that price was negotiable.

I hired some other students, and pretty soon they were cutting the lawns and I was out selling all the time." The lawn business financed "Truth for Youth," a radio program he provided to rock stations free of charge.

At 19, with no background in radio, he talked WQAM in Miami into trying a Sunday morning program directed at teen-agers. By the end of his nine-year ministry, he had recruited 113 stations across Florida. He had also established a network of Youth Ranches. For his Youth Ranch work, he was paid $50 a week. But at 28, with a wife and one child and another on hold Fred went to his board of directors and asked for a raise.

A board member told him: "You're a missionary. You're not supposed to make money." "My motivation was never money," Fred says. "But I was disillusioned. I was disgusted by the politics I had found in religion." He gave up his youth mission and moved to Long Island, where his father, who had retired from the police force, ran a motel. With his parents' help, he bought a seafood restaurant and bar on the beach at Montauk Point.

His wife hit the roof. Her religious beliefs would not let her tolerate a husband who operated a bar, and their marriage collapsed. Ironically, after five months, Fred decided the restaurant-bar business wasn't for him. He sold out and went south, looking for work. In the next six years, he sold stocks, bought and sold a tire company, designed and marketed tax shelters and ran a successful insurance operation.

"I discovered a little-known regulation," he says. "It allowed a corporate buyer to buy life insurance with pre-tax dollars, borrow the cash value of the policy and end up making money." The insurance business boomed, and in 1976, Fred's company was grossing $16,000 a month. But the Internal Revenue Service closed the loophole and put him out of business. "I was so disgusted I didn't work for about a year," Fred says. It was during that "bumming around" period that he met his present wife, Pat.

A St. Petersburg native, she was a public health nurse for Pinellas County. Back in 1969, Fred had discovered nudism through a friend. When he and Pat started going together, he tried to talk her into accompanying him to a nudist camp. "It took me a year and a half," he says.

Meanwhile, Fred returned to work, first in the mobile teiephone business and later in real estate. In 1978, he joined Creative Lifestyles in St. Petersburg and quickly became their number one salesman. But there was something missing. "In the religious world, I'd found hypocrisy.

The business world proved plastic," Fred says. He found relief in nudism. "Once you take off your clothes, the phoniness disappears," he says. Fred and Pat became frequent visitors to Lake Como, eventually moving there permanently. But they could not own their home site.

Lake Como sites are leased, not sold. Fred decided he would like to own land in a nudist community, so he decided to create one. He bought an option on a piece of land next, to Lake Como and looked around for investors. Three days before the option expired, he found a group of Clearwater businessmen all non-nudists willing to buy half of the action. Then he quit his job and applied for zoning board approval.

He says he was prepared for a public outcry, but "to my amazement, there was not one objection when the project came before the zoning board." Meanwhile, deposits were pouring in from would-be buyers. But finding a mortgage company was something else. As interest rates soared and money became tighter, it looked as if Paradise Lakes would turn out to be just another dream. But Fred persevered. And eventually, he found a local multimillionaire who was willing to back the project.

The original investors graciously sold their half of the company back to Fred to make way for his new partner. Did Fred ever doubt that the project would succeed? "I had doubts," he admits. "But I never admitted them not even to myself." Pat admits that she was tortured by doubts for the first six to nine months. But Fred converted her. "When things looked really bad," Pat says, "we'd just tell each other: 'If it was easy, anybody could do 1 3-26 CRYPTOQUIP GIOTU GUUF ZLKFLNOD AIEST-KTNLSO AIESUFTI OZLLD Yesterday's Cryptoquip CRACKER SNACKS MAKE LATE Drink Of Drain Cleaner Hospitalizes Inmate At Jail SUPPER SUPPLEMENTS.
