VERNON DAILY RECORD. Vernon, Texas, April tCK' AM) Reader Nixes Visits DEAR ABBY I was shocked with your sympathetic attitude toward HEARTBROKEN GRANNY. (She wanted to visit her children tho he was divorced and his ex-wife was remarried and had taken the children to live in another state.) I was a divorcee with preschool children, and now I am happily remarried to a wonderful man who is doing an excellent job with his readymade family. I have been bugged to death by my ex-mother-in-law who her grandchildren.

Lisa Short, Jennifer Baldwin, Sheila Richardson, Abigail Brierton and Mrs Tidmore She sends them cards and gifts for their birthdays and holidays, so they forget her. I always send her a brief but to- the-point thank you.

I wish stop sending them things! As yet she hasn't asked to visit the children, (we live in a different state) but if she does I'll not permit it. My children now have new grandparents who adore them, and one set of grandparents is enough i just understand the nerve of my laws. Why they accept the fact that I want nothing more to do with You should have told HEARTBROKEN GRANNY to leave her ex-grandchildren alone. Sometimes you make more problems than you REMAR RIED MOTHER DEAR MOTHER: When one loses a mate (whether by divorce or death) if there are children, the biological grandparents remain grandparents forever. Circumstances differ, hut it would seem unnecessarily cruel to deny grandparents the right to see their grandchildren.

In some states (California) such a right has been written into the law. DEAR ABBY: A friend of mine died last year, leaving two little girls who went to live with an aunt. Last Christmas 1 sent a check payable to the aunt in a Christmas card addressed to the girls. I told the girls to give the check to their aunt to cash, and she would give them the money to buy themselves something for Christmas I received the cancelled check However, last week I heard from the girls response to my letter asking them what they had bought with my Christmas and bought with by Christmas money and they wrote that the aunt had never given them the money Should I ask the aunt for an explanation, or just forget it and never send money that way My husband says 1 should let it be What do you say? MINOR PROBLEM DEAR MINOR: let it be. Let the aunt know that you know that the girls have not received the YET! School Textbooks ass NEW YORK Social studies textbooks currently used in U.S.

The prime time rule was imposed last October by the Federal Communications Commission as a method of providing more diversified and innovative sources of programs than those offered by the networks. It requires the local stations to produce their own shows for a half hour each night or turn to inde pendent producers or advertising agencies. Whether more innovative and diversified programming has resulted is questionable Sixty-one out of 97 managers polled by The Associated Press were against the rule.

Only 23 managers said they either favored the rule or believed that it should be tested further Thirteen offered no opinion. "It's producing a variety of programming and allowing independent producers to enter the said Lee Jason of KFSS. Fresno.
