-9 England As Testing Ground For NOW Accounts Comparison Nashua Telegraph, Thursday, July 8,1876 29 AUGUSTA, Maine (AP) New Englanders have had the chance since March to earn 5 per cent interest on a new type of checking account. But Maine bankers warn that the NOW accounts aren't for everybody. Maine banks offering the accounts said they are requiring a minimum balance in the accounts of $250 or $500 per month, depending on the bank. Customers whose accounts fall below the minimum either pay a service charge for writing checks or lose interest for the month, depending on the bank's rules. a a a customers who can't keep a sizeable balance probably would do better with a regular checking account, especially a free one.

Officials in Maine, Connecticut and Vermont report that banks have been cautious in offering the new savings- checking account option. Customers too haven't flocked to open NOW accounts. a a designated by Congress this year to be the testing ground for a service which pays interest to account holders. The acronym NOW stands for negotiable order of The congressional designation for New England came a i Massachusetts and New Hampshire banks since 1972. Banks in Maine say they a he Massachusetts and New Hampshire experience to require minimum balances to prevent the accounts from being used as a substitute for a small checking account.

The account combines the features of a with the same interest paid on regular savings accounts. Bankers say they will lose money on NOW accounts because of the cost of servicing them unless the balance is between $900 to $1,200. Banks can use NOW account deposits to make, loans, which earn money for them.

The bureau reports that the number of NOW, accounts in state-regulated Maine banks stood at just over 5,000 at the end of May, the latest figures available.

That compared to nearly 280,000 regular check- i a i a regulated banks. The bureau said a direct comparison between the two figures could not be made because federal and state regu-- lations prohibit banks from offering NOW accounts to most businesses. NOWs are being offered by 20 of the 74 state-regulated commericial banks, savings banks and savings and loan associations in Maine. The Banking Bureau did not have statistics for banks regulated by the federal government. A spokesman for one commercial bank said his bank would offer a NOW account later i He predicted that all banks would be forced into them by competition for customer dollars.

The relative celebrity of the performers is not the only difference in watching "MH, MH" the second time around.

Miss Lasser looks about the same as she did in the final episodes last week, except maybe a little less tired, which is understandable both in human terms and in terms of the deterioration of the character she plays. On the other hand, almost everyone else looks like she fears peculiar to commercials. At the end, that sort of minor key spoof became lost as Mary fell victim to her environment sad, but not funny.

MULLINS CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (AP) George Bernard Shaw wrote "The Devil's Disciple" in 1897, but the play, now at the Loeb Drama Center, makes a fine 200th birthday gift to the United States. Set in New Hampshire in 1777, the play features rebellious American colonists and a Burgoyne and a contingent of British troops, perfect for the Bicentennial year. Less than perfect is the acting; many of the performances seem amateurish. John Glover overdoes the swaggering dash of Dick Dudgeon, the Devil's Disciple, China Expert Recalls Giii MADISON, Conn.

(AP) -The late Chinese military leader Chu Teh was a lovable figure with "an Eisenhower grin," said a China authority who knew him. Chu, who died Tuesday, met with historian and author Helen Foster Snow during the 1930s when she and journalist Edgar Snow were both covering the Chinese Revolution. "Chu was a lovable figure, overflowing with warmth. He had an Eisenhower grin and lived a spartan life with his soldiers," she said. "He favored normalization to build a relationship with the United States," she said, adding she felt it was a mistake for America not to have an ambassador in China before the death of Mao Tse-Tung.

Burgoyne has many of the better lines in the play, but Valentine cannot always be understood Robert Murch and Wendy Fulton do fairly well with their roles as the Rev.

Anthony Anderson and his wife, Judith, although at one point Murch's acting becomes a parody of the role. William Young is fine as Major Swindon. The play revolves around Dudgeon, a black sheep to his family and townsfolk who has been living with smugglers and gypsies and professes antiChristian thoughts, ana i a Anderson and his young wife. Basic to its climax is the way men act "in the hour of Shaw makes it a vehicle for something in which he obviously delighted, a kind of role reversal. The play may be 79 years old, but Shaw's comments remain fresh, lively and pertinent.

The famed Shavian wit is most pleasure bly there, and it's a play the whole family can enjoy. The set and lighting, designed by Donand Soule, are a definite plus. The use of wood and of muted colors in the costumes gives a Colonial air. Steeples, the British flag and British soldiers are depicted in faded paint' on panels that appear to be made of old barn boards. Slides depicting' leaves and buildings are projected onto the panels, and the rest, of the sets move in and out among them.

The play is one of three to be performed this summer at the Loeb. It will be presented Mondays through Saturdays through July 24, and will be followed by "Life Father" and "That plonship Season." were associated with traffic accidents while only 35 per cent of the males arrested were involved with accidents. i i i i researchers said the average female arrested for driving while intoxicated was "a woman in her early thirties who is legally unattached and living alone. She has a job of relatively lowlevel skill, when employed, despite a slightly higher than average level of education." The report said "she is usually arrested during late- evening and earlymorning hours as a result of a traffic violation, involvement in an a i a i or abusive behavior. "She is usually alone in the car and highly intoxicated.

A bureau spokesman said three windows were broken in the building and several hun- evacuated. No one was hurt. The Indians, members of a group called the "Trail for Self Determination," were charged With disorderly conduct. Representatives of the group met earlier in the day with Deputy Undersecretary Dennis Ikies.

The bureau spokesman said the Indians had asked to tour the building, which ordinarily isn't open to the public. Of- llow them to the building and held it for several days. The Interior Department claimed they caused $2 million in damages. One 20 demands being made by the Indians is that the bureau be disbanded. During the 1972 takeover, the Indians said they would return if the bureau was not abolished by July 4 of this year.

Before Chief U.S. District Court Judge A A.

a passed sentence a a prosecutor Martin Beaudreau, of the Organized Crime Strike Force, recommended a stiff prison term. Martorano, 34, of Quincy, could have received up to 40 years in jail and a $40,000 fine for his June 14 federal court conviction on four counts of extortionate credit practices. He was previously convicted for harboring a fugitive and being accessory after the fact to murder and still faces charges in Suffolk Superior of auto theft and illegal possession of an M-l carbine and a .38 cal. revolver. He is currently free on $50,000 bail pending an appeal filed Wednesday by his attorney Joseph Oteri.

Beaudreau described Martorano as the "man at the top (of a loansharking scheme) with the power and the Confessed mobster Joseph Barboza, who said Martorano was "friendly" with und i told a federal grand jury that Raymond L.S. Patriarca was the head of organized crime in New England. Barboza was subsequently gunned down in a gangland- style killing on Feb. II, 1976, in San Francisco. Records in the Registry of Deeds list Martorano as a partner of "Howie" Winters in the "333 Columbus Realty i owned a building in Boston which was the scene of two fires "of suspicious origin." Both fires the second of which destroyed the building and the financing of the building by two banks are under investigations by the Suffolk County District Attorney's office, according to sources close to the investigation.

Barboza identified Winters as "one of Buddy McLean's partners." Winters allegedly succeeded McLean as head of organized crime in Somerville after McLean was killed by a shotgun blast during Boston's gangland war of the 1960's, ac- control of years to commit violence."
