HAROLD FYNN have to come from the community." Mr. Fynn said eventually it was hoped to get assistance from united campaigns, but that the home would have to prove itself. It was felt that a staff ratio of one-to-one was necessary, and the length of stay could be from three months to 12 or 18 months depending on the individual. The successful integration of youthful offenders into the community is the goal of the project, the meeting was told, with individual and group counselling combined with placement help from outside when the person was ready to leave the house. Assistance will be given in finding a place to live, setting up a budget, finding a job or place in school and taking a constructive place in the community.

I Wj jZ3i Vf 'j 1 JfW .1 (' -1 'MTk By PATRICIA McCORMACK NEW YORK (UPI) Make it a catty Christmas for those of our acquaintance who "have everything." Bet such folks don't have a luxurious Himalayan or a glistening brown Burmese. No, silly. They're not the latest sports cars or togas.

They're what this story says the first sentence cats. Not regular felines. They're classy cats. Interest in snooty purr-makers, according to the Pet Food Institute, ranks as a status symbol. Americans now spend $12.5 million a year for the privilege of owning or giving an exotic feline.

Siamese are top dog among purebred cats, the institute reports. Instead of lapsitting, they prefer to poke their whiskers into every corner and stir up mischief. These creatures have a cream colored coat and brilliant blue eyes surrounded by a brown mask. Himalayans have long, soft hair but the same coloring as the Siamese. The pretty looks are teamed with an easygoing personality.

For those who want a chic cat there are the Abyssinians. They are shy, primitive looking, and sport russed fur on a lithe, muscular body. Owners of Burmese, mean- while, declare this kind of cat is the most affectionate among foreign shorthaired cats. They have striking gold colored eyes and solid brown coats. Unlike the Abyssinians, they are gregarious and apt to show off when given an audience.

The tailess Manx catches the fancy of other lovers of snooty cats. Owners say what they lack in the tail department they make up in devotion. A new breed that is growing in demand is the Rex. This type has a curly coat and wavy whiskers. A nicely curled kitten sells for $100 or more.

When shopping for a purebred cat, you'll find price tags from $25 up. If this seems steep, you can pick up a plain cat, breed mixed, for a few dollars. They're not as stylish as purebreds but they are lovable. When on the prowl for a classy cat, the following tips will help make the task easier. Pick a kitten that has a plump, firm body and perky disposition.

Its coat should be smooth and clean and its eyes, ears and nose free of discharge. Before you present it to the new owner, tie a shiny satin bow around its neck. You might also wrap up a box filled with some cat supplies, including victuals. i vJ WED IN FREEPORT Of wide interest was the marriage in St. Vincent de Paul Chapel, Village of Hunter, near Free-port, Grand Bahama Island, of Kathleen Mae Hunter of Frccport to David Charles Bierk of Freeport.

The bride is the daughter of and Mrs. William Muir Hunter of Riverside Tecumsch. and Mr. Bierk is the son of Mrs. Doris Bierk of Lafayette, Calif.
