The Leat-Chronicle Local Area T.V., Sports Comics Classified. 10B 98 2B 7B Thursday, April 28, 1983 Section I Fort Campbell Opens Bids To Remove Asbestos By ELISE FREDERICK Of The Leaf-Chronicle Staff Fort Campbell is inviting bids for de removal of ceiling material containing asbestos from three onschools, according to post public affairs officer Maj. Bill Mulvey. Mulvey said the Preventive 1 Medicine Activity at Fort Campbell conducted a study earlier this year, revealing that some ceilings in the junior high school, Jackson Elementery School, Marshall Elementary School and the post schools administration building contained asbestos. Funding was approved by the Department of Defense about one week ago.

Estimated cost of the project is between $500,000 and $1 million. Mulvey said that post officials chose to abate the buildings of asbestos rather than painting over or enclosing the material. Thus, the entire ceilings must be replaced. While encapsulating, the process through which the insulation is sealed, would be less expensive, it would not be as secure. Asbestos has been proven to cause cancer of the lung lining if inhaled or ingested.

Mulvey reported no cases in the Fort Campbell school system. Fort Campbell schools will close June 2 and the asbestos is scheduled to be removed before the August reopening of classes. Though specifications are available, bid opening is not scheduled until May 27. Mulvey said the contract should be awarded within a week so work may begin immediately. Meanwhile, the Clarksville-Montgomery County School Board has employed a construction firm to the scope of this system's asbestos problem.

Local Community Action Agency Receives Weatherization Funds The Clarksville-Montgomery County Community Action Agency been awarded $81,659 for weatherization of at least 77 homes, according to Dominick D. Azzara, executive director of the agency. The funding, which is based on the county's percentage of the state's poor, is a 50 percent reduction from last year's level, which funded the weatherization of 153 homes.

The weatherization program in Clarksville and Montgomery County is designed to provide improvements to minimize heat loss and improve thermal efficiency in the homes of low income, elderly and handicapped 1 families. In last year's weatherization pro- gram, of the 153 homes weatherized, 47 percent were occupied by one or more elderly persons and 42 percent were occupied by one or more handicapped persons, Azzara said. The program allows an average of not more than $1,000 per home to cover the cost of materials and labor to stop air infiltration and install attic and floor insulation. An additional $150 maximum is also allowed to assure the effective performance or preservation of the weatherization of material. Education of the residents about energy conservation in the home is also in the program, since part of the loss of energy could continue because of wasteful consumption habits, according to Corneice Hampton, weatherization coordinator for the Community Action Agency.

"We now have the opportunity to not only make homes warmer through weatherization but could also save the occupants additional money and energy through education," Corneice said. "This will be done through small group consultation individual household counseling." To ensure consistent quality of work, the Tennessee Valley Authority staff will provide both the initial survey and post inspection of the homes, and all work must pass TVA inspection before payments to contractors are made. 40 To Enter Austin Peay Honor Society Three Austin Peay State University graduates, 36 students and a history professor will be inducted into the university's chapter of a national honor society Monday.

While a correspondent, Miss Bayer's telephone would ring at all times of the day with neighbors in the surrounding communities reporting their information. They knew they could count on Miss Bayer to get their "important" news in the newspapers. "She was very dedicated to her column and her friends," said Bee Brewer, a business manager of the Stewart-Houston Times.

Miss Bayer lived in Cumberland City all her life.

However, Daisy Dickson, also a correspondent for The -Chronicle, said Miss Bayer had been writing just about as long as she has: 37 years.

Miss Bayer's brother, Martin, said his sister spent a lot of time on the telephone getting information from those she refered to as "her regulars." Whether someone was in the hospital or celebrating a birthday, Miss Bayer wanted to be sure to recognize everyone, always appreciating any information she could get. "She felt what she did was very important," explained Mrs. Brewer. "If her column was left out of ease paper or if someone's name was left off, she would be very upset." James E. Charlet, former publisher of The Leaf-Chronicle, recalled working with Miss Bayer several years ago.

"She was one of our best correspondents," he said. "She was very reliable and did an excellent job for us. She really wrote about who visited whom, that sort of thing. We don't see very much of that kind of journalism any more. "They (the correspondents) called everybody.

They had their sources of news. People liked to read it, liked to know what their neighbors were doing," Charlet said. Lula Vaughn, a close friend and neighbor, said Miss Bayer devoted a lot of time to her columns because she knew it was important to her readers. Mrs. Vaughn said that families originally from Stewart County who had moved away still subscribe to the local newspaper just because of her columns.

"She will be very much missed," she said. While writing her columns may have been an important part of Miss Bayer's life, she also loved baseball. Her brother, Martin, said she watched and listened to as many baseball games as she could on television and on radio. "She talked more about baseball than anything else," he said. "She believed in the St.

Louis Cardinals." Miss Bayer was also fond of gardening and growing things. Mary McCracken, a friend for many years, said, "She had a cherry tree that was her pride and joy and she looked forward to the cherries blooming each year so she and Mrs. Vaughn could pick them." Mary Stacker, who has been a friend of Miss Bayer's for more than 30 years, said "She was a dear friend to me and to lots of people." Miss Bayer was born July 19, 1898, in Stewart County. She was the daughter of the late Joseph and Sarah Bedwell Bayer. She was a member of Cumberland City United Methodist Church.

Survivors include three brothers, Martin Bayer, Cumberland City, Joseph T. Bayer, Valparaiso, and S.D. Bayer, Eutaw, Ala. Pallbearers will be Danny Vaughn, Houston Vaughn, Don Waters, Tom Knight, Juber Harris, Carter Wallace, Kenneth Wyatt and Everett Holley. Visitation will be after 10 a.m.
