Plone-fruck crash sends 4 to hospital SAN ANTONIO, Tex. (AP) Four persons were treated here and in Del Rio Monday for injuries suffered in the collision of a pickup truck and a plane grounded by bad weather in West Texas. Listed in guarded condition at San Antonio were Mrs. Virginia Chapman, 63, of Del Rio; her daughter, Virginia, 6, and a grandson, Clint, 2. Another child, Johnny Chapman, 4, was in good condition at Del Rio.

AH were occupants of the truck. No one in the plane was reported hurt. State police said the craft, piloted by Del Rio businessman Herb Whitis and occupied by three other men, made a forced landing in a thunderstorm Sunday night on U.S. 90 about 60 miles northwest of Del Rio. Led by an escort car, the craft was taxiing along the highway in search of a place to pull off, officers said, when the truck was in collision with the plane's left wingtip.

One of the craft's gasoline tanks smashed through the truck's windshield, cab and rear window, officers said. Mrs. Chapman and the two children were transferred here by ambulance early Monday. Panel plans drug study SAN ANTONIO, Tex. (AP) The Texas House Interim Crime Study Committee will meet here Friday to investigate juvenile drug abuse.

New structure is the 50-story Carlton Center, highest in Africa.

By IKE FLORES Associated Press Writer NASSAU, Bahamas (AP) Bahamians elect a new government today after a campaign marred by violence and fought over the issues of independence from Britain and a faltering economy. At stake is the fate of the first black Bahamian government in history and the 700-island nation's future course in foreign affairs, its own defense and the attraction of foreign investments. Voters decide whether to return Prime Minister Lyndon 0. Pindling and his Progressive Liberal Party to office or give the Free National Movement a combination of dissident PLP members and the old white- dominated United Bahamian Party the needed majority of 38 assembly seats to form a new government. "The PLP has adopted an an- tiforeign attitude which has damaged this country immeasurably," claimed Arthur Foulkes, a former Pindling associate who has become one of the administration's harshest critics.

Pindling, a popular black attorney from Nassau whose PLP swept aside the United Bahamian Party in 1967, admits to problems employment is up, construction is down and investment is off. But he sees these as transitory, generated mainly by the uncertainty of elections. While the opp- 'ion insisted on making inc? ndence an election issue, the LP went full suit names DA, police chief DALLAS (AP) Dist. Atty. Henry Wade, Police Chief Frank Dyson and three police officers are being sued in U.S.

District Court Judge Eldon B. Mahon's court here for more than $70,000 in damages by 45 employes of an adult book store chain. The employes claim "harassment." The suit, filed Monday, says 161 criminal informations were sworn out against employes of ICros Book Stores over a 13- month period, causing some of them to lose their jobs. It claimed that the law enforcement officials were trying to run the book stores out of business by making numerous arrests for alleged violations of the Texas obscenity law. Lack of incentives said key to oil shortage HOUSTON (AP) The cur rent oil shortage which caused President Nixon Monday to increase oil import quotas was brought about by lack of incentives to domestic producers to explore for more oil, the top spokesman for the Texas independent oil operators said Monday.

George Mitchell president of the Texas Independent Producers Royalty Owners Association said undiscovered domestic oil and gas reserves are four times current proved reserves. "All that is needed is the incentive to explore for these reserves but it is politically unpopular to give incentives for explorations," he said. "We are now reaping the harvest of shortsighted policies. We are running out of oil and gas with prices at which you can't make a profit," President Nixon Monday issued a proclamation boosting import quotas for the last three months of the year by more than 650,000 barrels a day. Elmer Bennett, Office of Emergency Preparedness general counsel, blamed the increase on lagging domestic production.

"That is a hell of a jump," Mitchell said, "but our backs are against the wall and production can't keep up with demand. "It is really time this country analyze our energy deficiency and do something about it," Mitchell said. "The energy crisis is real and we must respond." The new increase of imports means another $1.8 million a day in the balance of payments deficit, he said. "But that is nothing compared with a $30 billion deficit a year for imported oil and li- quified natural gas by 1985 when the National Petroleum Council estimates our imports will amount to 14.4 million barrels a day," Mitchell added. "This would mean a 57 per cent dependency on foreign imports.

If the domestic industry had the proper incentives this dependency could be cut to 20 per cent. With the proper incentives, I think the industry would startle the country." But Mitchell said he doesn't see that happening until after the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries "hits us with a sudden thud, like increasing prices of their export- No, Gwendolyn, "ill will" isn't a guy named William who is feeling poorly.

Perry Lynn Davis, Coleman, charged Rlcna rcl Chancellor, San Angelo, speed ahead with its announced timetable of a complete break in formal ties with Britain by July 10, 1973. The picturesque islands dotting the Atlantic ocean off the Florida coast would remain within the British Commonwealth, but they would assume control of their own defense and foreign affairs. The leader of the Free National Movement, Cecil Wallace Whitfield, argued that independence should not be considered at least until another general election is held. This could take five to 10 years. "The cry of independence has already cost blood," says Whitfield, former PLP education minister under Pindling.

"The Bahamas cannot afford independence in 1973 either in dollars or in blood." At least one death and half a dozen injuries have been attributed to pre-election violence. One of Whitfield's supporters was found shot to death early this month. A hotel on Cat Island used as an FNM headquarters was firebombed over the Labor Day weekend. In addition, there have been reports of other incidents of arson. ed oil by 50 cents to $1.

"I predict the price of imported oil will be a barrel or more by 1985," he said. Current prices range from $2.80 to $3.50 a barrel. with speeding. Roger Dale Schuman, Goldthwaite, charged with speeding. Thomas E.
