The lawyer handling Bembenek's appeal, Martin E. Kohler, said late Sunday he was surprised to hear of the escape.

The prison sits on a 180-acre parcel of land and about one third of the area is wooded, Switala said. Bembenek was last seen shortly ago and was in the process of petitioning the state Supreme Court for review after the most recent appeals court rejection. Kohler, of Milwaukee, said he would continue with the appeal despite the escape. Seat belt use increases Get into the habit: Sheriff Fitzgerald 80 percent were in safety restraints.

People over the age of 60 were the second highest safety belt use group with 58 percent compliance. "The lowest usage occurred among those in the 16-29 age group where only 44 percent were wearing belts," Fiedler observed. "This is particularly worrisome, since younger drivers have the highest crash rates." People in the Eau Claire area had the highest belt use with a 71 percent usage rate, a substantial increase over the 47 percent usage rate observed last fall. The south and southeast portions of the state were next, averaging 54 percent and 53 percent respectively. La Crosse had 51 percent, Wisconsin Rapids had 47 percent usage and the Green Bay area was next with a 44 percent usage rate.

The northern areas had the lowest belt use, with 42 percent in Rhinelander and 41 percent in Superior. However, Fiedler said, those two areas had increased substantially from 31 percent and 33 percent usage rates observed in the fall study. The study included occupants of 20,899 vehicles at 257 representative sites across the state during daylight hours. into their cars so it becomes habit A roadside survey conducted in March and April found 52 percent of occupants wearing safety belts, a 2 percent increase over studies conducted in 1989 and 3 percent higher than in the fall of 1988. Fitzgerald said he believes one reason more people are complying with the law is that new cars have easier-to-use seat belts that seem less restraining.

With his experience in handling car accidents, Fitzgerald stressed that seat belts have a "definite effect" in preventing serious injury people receive, especially in frontal crashes. THE CURRENT usage rate is double the number who buckled up before the law which was passed in 1987, but slightly behind the 56 percent that buckled up immediately after the law was passed. "Since my goal is to have 70 percent of our motorists buckled up by 1992, this is an encouraging trend," Fiedler added. Females continued to use safety belts at a higher rate than males, 60 percent for women versus 46 percent for men. The highest usage rate was for children under the age of four, where MADISON, Wis.

Even though more people are buckling up, they use seat belts more on longer trips than on shorter trips, according to Ronald R. Fiedler, Department of Transportation secretary. "It's ironic that people tend to buckle up on long trips on the Interstate system, which is the safest roads we have, but don't bother with belts on shorter trips on less safe roads," Fiedler said. Safety belt usage continues to be the highest on the rural Interstate system, with nearly 59 percent of the occupants wearing belts. Fiedler said studies show that most crashes occur within 25 miles of home where people do a majority of their travel.

DODGE COUNTY Sheriff Stephen Fitzgerald said people not wearing their seat belts close to home has been a problem for years. Fitzgerald said people should make an effort to wear their seat belts. "I have found in personal usage that once you get used to using them, you feel uncomfortable not wearing them, or you feel guilty." He recommended that people put scat belts on as soon as they get Mound Cemetery, Waupun. Mrs. Mulligan was born on April 27, 1912, in Kankakee, 111., the daughter of Arm and H.

Gorbachev agrees Germany free to choose its alliance: Kohl the son of Kenneth and Violet (Swanson) McDougal. He was married to Agnes Becker.

He was married to Carol Pickhardt, Jan. 17. 1987. FRANKFURT, West Germany (AP) Chancellor Helmut Kohl said today that Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev has removed his objection to a unified Germany belonging to NATO. The agreement between Kohl and Gorbachev cleared a major obstacle to German unification.

Kohl, speaking at joint news conference with major issues, including a timetable for the withdrawal of Soviet troops from East German territory and the size of the armed forces for a united Germany. THE CHANCELLOR was speaking at the end of a two-day visit to the Soviet Union and talks with Gorbachev aimed at removing Soviet concerns over Ger Gorbachev in the Soviet Union that was broadcast live on West German television, said he and the Soviet president had agreed that a unified Germany will be free and sovereign to choose which alliance it will belong to. Kohl said he told Gorbachev that Germany wanted to stay in NATO. Kohl also announced agreement on several other man unification. Kohl said that Soviet troops should be withdrawn from East German territory three to four years after Germany is united.

The Soviets now have about 380,000 troops in East Germany. During the same period, the armed forces of a united Germany will be reduced to 370,000 soldiers, Kohl said. He attended rural schools Administration expected to raise deficit estimate by $60 billion Horicon roof assures 10-year leak-proof future disruptive" to a host of government programs. Darman said such a reduction would require a 38.4 percent in non-defense spending and cuts of between 25.1 percent and 43.3 percent in military programs. Social Security and some other entitlement programs are exempt from Gramm-Rudman cuts, forcing even sharper reductions in other programs.

Darman said that the Gramm-Rudman cuts would force major cutbacks in air traffic control operations, increasing delays for air passengers by 400 per cent to 600 percent. The cuts would also require a 40 percent cut in the Head Start program affecting 200,000 4-year-olds and sharply curtailing other government programs ranging from poultry and meat inspections to cleanup of Superfund toxic waste sites. The administration blamed the sharp deterioration in the deficit from January until now on the higher-than-expected bailout and weaker economic growth, which cuts into government revenues, and higher interest rates. WASHINGTON (AP) The Bush administration today dramatically boosted its official estimate of the fiscal 1991 budget deficit to $168.8 billion, two-thirds higher than its forecast just six months ago. The increase could force automatic spending cuts of over $100 billion if Congress and the admin-istration don't agree on a package of spending reductions and tax increases.

Today's estimate did not even include the costs of bailing out the savings and loan industry. When those costs are included, the deficit for the fiscal year that begins Oct. 1 climbs to $23 1.4 billion, the White House said in its official mid-session review of the budget. The administration's new forecast is far higher than the $100.5 billion deficit estimate included in the president's budget when it was released last January. It is also significantly higher than the $64 billion deficit target set by the Gramm-Rudman balanced budget law.

If Congress is unable to reduce the deficit to within $10 billion of the $64 billion, it triggers across-the-board spending cuts. Along with its new deficit estimate, the administration included dire warnings of what could happen if the current budget negotiations between Congress and the administration fail and the across-the-board cuts are triggered. White House Budget Director Richard Darman called across-the-board cuts of more than $100 billion unprecedented in their magnitude and "highly jjwsitiaii yi.j-i Ay absorbs rays from the sun which crack and erode the surface.

By the middle of September, he expects the three workers will finish surfacing the roof. HORICON Local contractors are adding a new surface to the roof on the northwest side of Van Brunt Elementary School. Three Horicon residents, Dan Oeschner, Tom Bjork and Pat Mayo, started applying a primer to the surface about three weeks ago. The workers should finish the second layer, a rubber coating, today, Oeschner said.

After waiting 60 days for the rubber coating to get hard enough, the contractors will apply an aluminum coating to reflect the rays.
