It was suggested that the society might take charge of specific promotional ideas. Among these were an annual arrowhead celebration in the valley that could include temporary ceremonial lighting of the landmark and placing a replica of the arrowhead at the Interstate 10 and 1-15 interchange. The replica would be made of stone and would be in keeping with a new desire by Caltrans to place art forms at strategic places along freeways. The landmark measures about 1,300 feet from its top to the bottom tip and 550 feet across at its widest point. The report included a summary of 36 responses from 172 questionnaires mailed to public officials, service clubs, environmental groups and mountain residents.

Seventeen, or 47 per cent, of the respondents were against illuminating the arrowhead. 1 Among things recommended by the report were prevention of further soil erosion, revegetation using native species, an arrowhead awareness program with the public, acquisition of the tip of the arrowhead from Campus Crusade for Christ and renomination of the arrowhead as a national landmark. Two previous nominations failed. SAN BERNARDINO The Ca-jon Ranger District of the U.S. Forest Service on Wednesday proposed a program of natural enhancement of the arrowhead landmark in the foothills above San Bernardino but recommended against putting lights around it.

At a meeting of the Arrowhead Committee of the San Bernardino Chamber of Commerce, District Ranger Ernie Dierking presented a draft copy of recommendations that will be forwarded to USFS officials. The report was backed by a Forest Service study of climate, soil, vegetation, wildlife, historic and geological conditions around the arrowhead, a natural formation on the mountainside above the old Arrowhead Springs Hotel.

McLaughlin has a twin sister, Betty Lou, The question researchers hope to answer, McLaughlin said, is why one twin suffers multiple sclerosis. Two pints of blood were draw from participants to sort, count, examine, probe and test the white cells, which were then frozen and stored for more tests in years to come. McLaughlin and her sister have made the trip to Bethesda four times so far as guests of the federal government. The most recent week-long trip was in July, McLaughlin said. The main thrust of the research project, aecordingo research data, is immunogenetics and immuno-regulation what is different about an MS patient? Is it something which "turns on" his or her immune system provoking and sustaining aberrant lymphocytes (white cells)? McLaughlin said she is encouraged by the research and possible experiments with MS patients resulting from the studies.

One such experiment, she said, could mean transfusing normal white blood cells from her sister into her own blood stream in hopes of a possible cure, although researchers say more work is needed in that area. And while McLaughlin is hopeful about what the research findings may mean, she is not pinning all her hopes on them. "What helps the most is your way of thinking," she said. "If you want to be well you can pull yourself out of it." A member of St. Catherine of Siena Church, McLaughlin credits her faith with "helping me more than anything.

I was relieved to learn what I had was MS. When I knew that, I knew I could handle it." Besides preparing the house for the holidays, McLaughlin said 6he is planning a Christmas party for area MS victims and their families. The party, sponsored by the MS Society, will be from 2 to 4 p.m. Dec. 12 at the Carl Johnson Community Center, Second Street and Palm Avenue.

There will be entertainment and refreshments. About 50 people are expected to attend, McLaughlin said. (Continued from B-l) mere act of calling an election would be perceived by the public as advocacy of a further increase, McElwain conceded that the "political ramifications are very strong." But the supervisor said there is no doubt that local streets and roads are deteriorating and that revenues from the two-cent in crease will not be sufficient, and he added, "We've got to look at that on a business-like basis." McDaniel said he will arrange a meeting of interested city and county officeholders and administrators to discuss the proposal in more detail. The SANBAG staff chief said the advisory committee has suggested an extra tax of two or three cents per gallon. He said one proposal is to allocate one third of the revenues directly to the county and its cities, one third to participation with the state in highway projects and one third to replace the nearly $3 million a year of Federal Aid-Urban funds that SANBAG now allocates and that is expected to be lost as a result of Reagan adminis-.

College district receives grant for TV transmitter 8s $xsb Television station KVCR Channel 24 will be getting a new transmitter with a $650,000 grant awarded this week by the U.S. Commerce Department.

The grant, from the department's Public Telecommunications Facilities Program, was awarded to the San Bernardino, Community College District for upgrading facilities at the district's public TV station and to increase the service area.

"We're a little unsure how (the signal) will go over the mountain," he said. He said an additional 558,000 persons will be served by the station with the new transmitter and tower site. The station had asked for $889,520 to complete all three phases, but funding for the final two phases was denied for now.

Besides the $650,000 federal grant, the station has $150,000 from the district and $186,000 from community fund raising to complete phase one. The second phase would have called for three 100-watt translators to serve the mountain and desert areas. Phase three would have been installation of a distribution system to cable companies, Crafton Hills- College and the Jerry Pettis Memorial Veterans Administration Hospital in Loma Linda. If all three phases had been funded, the service area would, have included 1.2 million viewers.

Elizabeth Medrano, 16, reportedly passed out at 8:30 p.m. Monday while inhaling less than an ounce of the fluid she had poured into a plastic bag at a friend's home here, said Deputy Coroner William Kyle. She was pronounced dead an hour later at Riverside General Hospital. A friend told officials that Medrano had been sniffing the fluid for only a few minutes when she collapsed.

Kyle said Medrano probably died of a heart attack since the fluid contains trichloroethy leue, a chemical that puts a strain on the heart when inhaled. 2,700 participants SAN BERNARDINO More than 2,700 people have signed up to participate in the 5th annual YMCA Children's Parade to begin at 11 a.m. Saturday. Decorated floats and parades, bands and children in club uniforms and costumes will march the six-block route down Street from 6th to Rialto. The parade grand marshal will be former YMCA director Stuart D.

Caldwell, recently retired after 25 years with local YMCAs. Also leading the parade will be the four girls selected to ride on the city's Tournament of Roses float entry. They are Beth Marie Dittmer, 1981 Miss San Bernardino; Rochelle Wilcoxson, Black History queen; Sandra Calleros, Mexican-American Chamber of Commerce; and Rhonda Horine, 1980 Miss San Bernardino. Special parade guests will be Smokey the Bear of the California Department of Forestry and Sgt. McGruff of the Sheriff's Crime Prevention Commission.

Dr. Delbert Van Voorhis, annual parade chairman, said five bands have entered as well as several clowns, car clubs, youth organizations and individual entrants. Children in the parade will receive participation ribbons and trophies at that time. Take the motor, for example. KitchenAid puts theirs right under the pump; if the pump leaks water could get into the motor and ruin it.

As you can see in the picture above, however, Maytag guards against this by locating the motor away from the pump. 5. Unlike KitchenAid, Maytag doesn't waste energy by heating water unnecessarily. KitchenAid gives you no choice every model has a built-in Dishwasher uses less energy than KitchenAid. It can save you 3 to 15 on energy costs compared to KitchenAid.

The patented Maytag Micro-Mesh Filter has smaller holes than KitchenAid's filter. Maytag's smaller holes trap even tiny food particles that could go right through the KitchenAid filter and get back on your dishes. In addition, the Maytag MicroMesh Filter cleans itself continuously. This eliminates the hand cleaning recommended by KitchenAid. The Maytag Jetclean'" Dishwasher has smaller spray holes than KitchenAid.

Just as a needle shower delivers a fast spray, these smaller holes create high-velocity jets of water with terrific dish-scrubbing power.

The three teenagers, two boys and one girl, were on Interstate 40 when they missed the Broadway Street exit, stopped and began backing up their pickup truck and struck an oncoming car, officers said. The automobile's driver, Tim Morris, 20, of Riverside, was reportedly hospitalized with massive face injuries, officers said.

His passenger, Danny Auman, 21, of Needles, received minor injuries, as did the three teenagers. After the accident, the teenagers allegedly drove away from the scene and were later found at a parking lot where officers then discovered that the truck belonged to the Barstow city maintenance department and had been reported stolon earlier that evening, officers said. All three were booked for investigation of vehicle theft and hit-and-run driving, officers said. crossing street LOMA LINDA An 86-year-old pedestrian was killed here Tuesday night when he attempted to cross a busy street during rush hour traffic, sheriff's deputies said. Arthur Frederick Brooks, of 25043 Mound Loma Linda, was crossing Barton Road at Hiilcrest Street at 5:56 p.m.
