Oct. 19, 1899, in Rich Square, N.C. Associated Press LAW official George Cosheff (left) helps members of Detroit Local 22 staple picket signs UAW chief says GM is 'dragging its feet' in contract negotiations day said it had extended its contract indefinitely with Ford Motor Co. as negotiations continued with GM. Ford talks will not shift into high gear until after an agreement is reached at GM.

GM's original job security offer was rejected, but a new one was delivered Monday. The union the next day called it inadequate, but a starting point for serious bargaining nonetheless. The document's contents have been kept under wraps. He graduated from Duke University and Emory School of Dentisty. Dr.

Spivey received the Georgia Dental Association's Devoted Service Award in 1978. He was a member of the board of directors of trust Company Bank of Clayton County, held a life membership in the American Dental Association, and also belonged to North Avenue Presbyterian Church.

James Young, swing jazz trombone great Tht AuociaM Press HONOLULU Jazz trombonist James "Trummy" Young, a Savannah, native who played with such jazz greats as Louis Armstrong and Dizzy Gillespie, died of a heart attack while visiting friends in California, his daughter said.

He was 72. Young, who had lived in Hawaii for 20 years, was on the -mainland to play in a jazz festival in Denver. He was hospitalized Friday in San Jose, where he had stopped to visit friends on his way back to Honolulu, and died Monday night, Andrea Young From Win Dispalchm DETROIT United Auto Workers President Owen Bieber declared Wednesday that General Motors Corp. was "dragging its feet" ana said he sees contract talks "heading for the ditch" unless GM's offers change by midnight Friday. In his most heated statements in seven weeks of bargaining, Bieber said the company has delivered little that the union wants on job security for its 350,000 members at GM.

"I'm certainly not as hopeful as I was yesterday," Bieber said. "We're going to have to see some significant movement of the job security issue if we're going to settle this thing by midnight Friday." Bieber said GM also had failed to deliver its revised wage proposal. Job security keeping automotive jobs in the United States is the union's No. 1 issue in these talks. The UAW uses the term "outsourcing" to describe the farming out of work to foreign and non-union domestic shops.

"If the corporation fails to ade quately address the range of job security issues, including future jobs and outsourcing, then I'm sorry to say that I see us heading for the ditch," Bieber said." GM spokesman John Mueller said chief company bargainer Alfred Warren would have no comment "at this point" on Bieber's remarks. Mueller did say, however, that "there is dialogue" between the two sides. 'They're talking." John Hammond of Data Resources Lexington, said an announcement sometime Friday of an agreement in principle may be made, enabling both sides to approve an extention to give them time to draft specific language. "I don't think a strike helps anybody," Hammond said. "If the irinciples of an agreement are ocked up, then it (an extension) makes sense.

The only thing that would mess this logic up would be if the leadership wants to take a little bit of a strike just to prove that we're Meanwhile, the UAW on Wednes The company has demanded that it be allowed "flexibility" when it feels the need to move auto work overseas to cut costs. The union says the 30 percent drop in U.S. automotive employment since 1978 is reason enough to demand protection for the jobs that remain.

Pope Dickson Son, Pillips Drive The AttocltiM Prm WASHINGTON The Senate voted Wednesday to limit to five percentage points the increases in interest rates on most adjustable-rate home loans. Although lenders and their regulators have taken steps in recent months to impose caps on mortgage rate increases, the rates were legally free to fluctuate over a wide range. The limit was proposed by Sen.

Howard M. (D-Ohio), in an amendment that was attached without objection to a bill intended to define which business activities are permissible for banks to engage in. If the banking bill passes, the interest rate limit would go into effect June 1, 1985, and cover any home costing less than $500,000. Consumers and some members of Congress have complained that lenders were luring borrowers into home loans they could never hope to repay by offering low "teaser" interest rates that would rise dramatically, raising monthly mortgage payments Chapel. 961-2700.

BROWN Consumers had complained of fees being charged without notice on inactive accounts, resulting in a loss of money in the account Banking institutions also would be required to disclose fully all fees to new customers before they open an account Facing a vote late Thursday to cut off 'debate on the banking bill, the Senate spent much of Wednesday debating a plan that would force the government to pay interest on money market and Super NOW account reserves that financial institutions are forced to keep on deposit with the Federal Reserve Bank. "It would be a subsidy to the banks and a big one," said Sen. William Proxmire, who estimated the proposal would cost the government $4 billion in the next five years. He said the cost was unjustified at a time of big budget deficits. Mrs.

1984. Funeral arrangements announced later. Sellers Bros. Young played.with Armstrong for 12 years, and also appeared with Gillespie, Benny Goodman and Earl'Tatha" Hines. He was an Armstrong sideman during the making of such hits as "I Can't Give You Anything but Love," "Ain't MisbehavinV and "Chinatown." Playing with Armstrong, Young once said, "He spoiled me.

He'd always leave something for me to come in on." Young, whose musical career spanned 50 years and most of the world, last visited Savannah in 1958, with Armstrong when the globe-trotting band played the old city auditorium under the Famous Artists' banner. In 1976, the Smithsonian Institution videotaped a concert by Young as part of an effort to preserve America's music heritage. "They missed Louis," Young said at the time. "So they are grabbin' those of us left" Music critics listed Young as one of the all-time great jazz trombonists, one of the "big three" with Wilbur de Paris and Jack Teagar-den. The Encyclopedia of Jazz says he was noted for "technically brilliant solos, a breathless style and humorous vocals." His biggest hit was "Margie," recorded in 1938, and his performances of "Sleepytime Down South" arid "Muskrat Ramble" are considered classics.

"Muskrat Ramble" was written by Edward "Kid" Ory, a close friend of Young's who also came to live in Hawaii and who died in 1973. Young wrote "Ain't Whatcha Do" and "Traveling Light" for Billie Holliday. He made a number of records with Armstrong and recorded with Charlie Parker and Gillespie during the early 1940s. He was the author of "Whatcha Know, He spent 15 years with the Jimmie Lunceford Orchestra before being signed on by Armstrong. He played with Goodman in the 1940s.

He also played in the movie "The Glenn Miller Story." CUlVERSON HE PROPOSED LIMIT Sen. Howard M. Metzenbaum drastically. Although a national trend still has not developed, critics warned of a wave of foreclosures as "payment shock" hits unwary borrowers. The Federal Home Loan Bank Board reported that 66 percent of the conventional mortgages closed by- major lenders in July were adjustable-rate loans.

In a related report the department said total Soviet grain output this year is expected to be 175 million tons, down 5 million tons from previous estimates.

By comparison, the U.S. corn harvest is expected to be about 192 million tons. A metric ton of 2,205 pounds is the equivalent of 39.4 bushels of corn or 36.7 bushels of wheat.

Jr. of Marietta; daughters, Mrs. Caroline Kemmerer of Wayne, and Mrs. Gene Allen Vargas of Tht AuociattO Prru WASHINGTON Dry weather in parts of the country last month cut into this year's corn crop, but the harvest still is expected to yield 7.55 billion bushels this fall, up 81 percent from the sharply reduced 1983 harvest, the Agriculture Department said Wednesday.

A month ago, in the department's initial production forecast of this season, corn output was estimated at 7.67 billion bushels. The latest estimate, based on Sept. 1 field surveys, was down 1.6 percent. "Much of the Corn Belt experienced very dry weather during August but the July rainfall appears to have helped carry the crop," the report said. In 1983, as a result of drought and the sovernment's acreage-reduction up 29 percent from last year but down 7 percent from the August forecast of 2.04 billion bushels.

The record was 2.27 billion bushels in 1979. Wheat, which is virtually all harvested, 2.57 billion bushels, up 6 percent from 1983 and 1.6 percent more than indicated in the August report. The record was 2.81 billion bushels in 1982. Cotton, 13.3 million bales, up 71 percent from last year's small-harvest and 5.5 percent more than forecast last month. It would be the largest crop since 1981's 15.6 million bales.

Despite the August deterioration in some areas, the corn harvest still is expected to be the fourth largest in U.S. history. President Reagan on Tuesday said the Soviet Union will be permitted to buy an additional 10 million ric tons of U.S. wheat and corn in 1984-85, raising the potential under a long-term sales agreement to 22 million tons. The pact had guaranteed Moscow the sale of 12 million tons until Reagan's announcement.

Corn and soybeans provide the main ingredients in feed used to produce the nation's beef, pork, poultry, eggs and milk. Larger production is expected to ease feed costs and encourage livestock production in the coming year, thus helping to dampen further food price increases. Food' prices this year are expected to average about 4 percent' higher than in 1983, programs, U.S. corn production dropped to 4.17 billion bushels less than half of the record 1982 harvest.
