A protest petition signed by some 140 Lead residents was presented by Larry Brasseit to the Lead City Commission when it met in regular session at City Hall Thursday afternoon. The petition was in protest to the city's ordinance governing time limits on parking which section of the city's traffic regulations states that no vehicle shall be parked at one location fora longer period of time than 10 hours on any street within the city of Lead, not otherwise specifically restricted and marked. To be amended After considerable discussion it was decided the time limit could be changed to 24 hours under section and the word Saturday be added to the portion of the ordinances which reads "no such restrictions on parking shall be enforced on Sunday and holidays. The new ordinance would thus allow weekend exclusions and holidays and set a 24 hour time limit during the week.

The board will allow 2 weeks before drawing up such an ordinance in order to give residents the right to appear and oppose or support such an ordinance. Blue Street Last week the commission indicated the city would vacate Blue Street from Prospect to Railroad as it was inaccessible to maintenance and fire equipment.

S. District Court at Deadwood Friday, by Judge Andrew Bogue.

Bogue made the decision after Means failed to show up for the second day for a bond recision hearing. He was represented by defense counsel, Mark Lane, New York attorney, and John Keller, Chamberlain. The decision was made over strong objection by defense counsel including one which accused the court of prejudice in view of the fact that the court, or in this case Judge Bogue, owned land in the very area in question by AIM as belonging to the Oglala Sioux and the fact that their client had been unable to return to South Dakota in time for the hearing.

At Thursday's meeting, Allen Johnson, manager of Montana Dakota Utilities appeared and indicated his concern for a 6-inch gas line under the street which by law could revert back to the property owners if the city were to vacate the street. Johnson stressed the fact that it could be costly and difficult to obtain easements for the utility.

After considerable discussion, the board directed the city attorney Ralph Hoggatt to draw up a resolution which.would allow pur king on both sides of the street in question with the city to keep the street on city rolls and thus honor the franchise with MDU. It was a parking problem as well as maintenance difficulty which prompted the commission to consider vacating the street. It was the hope of the commission that by revoking the parking restrictions on that portion of Blue Street, it would not be necessary for the city to vacate. Earmark Revenue Sharing The board was informed by Auditor Effie Lagg that a planned use report must be submitted to the U. S.

Treasury by June 20, in which projects within the city earmarked for revenue sharing monies must be outlined.

Indiana is divided by a time zone boundary which leaves part of the state in the eastern time zone and part in the central zone.

But the law was amended recently to allow a state divided by time zone boundary to exempt one part of the state from Daylight Saving Time.

The commission discussed priority areas where the funds could be utilized, placing garbage removal as the top priority. The program calls for a stop to burning garbage within the city and it is a 'possibility city garbage may have to be hauled some distance to be disposed of in land fill areas. Other projects which will be given consideration are bills accrued for connections and pumps if and when the Lead- Deadwood Sanitary District project moves forward, replacement of worn parking meters and uniform traffic signs.

(UPI) -The federal government today was assured of terrain-wise Oglala Sioux assistance in its effort to develop an impregnable armed perimeter around the village of Wounded Knee. The government agreed Thursday to let Oglala Sioux Indiansopposedto the Wounded Knee occupation join forces with U.S. marshals and FBI men encircling the settlement. Richard Hellstern, a deputy assistant attorney general announced the agreement with Dick Wilson, tribal chairman of the Oglala Sioux. "The real asset (of the agreement) is that the people on the reservation will feel they have more of a piece of the action than they did before," Hellstern said.

The Oglala government has expressed anger and bitterness against thegovernment's refusal to move forcefully against the Indians who seized Wounded Knee 60 days ago.

It stays in effect until Sunday, Oct. 28. Homestake Mining Company officials said the new Daylight Savings Time schedule will apply to all shifts beginning after April 29.
