The six miles of U.S. 41 through Bonita Springs was under six to eight inches of water at times last spring. Wrote Dunn: "I appreciate your calling our attention to the problems of U.S.

41 through Bonita Springs. "By all means you may be sure that the Peninsula Motor Club continues to be interested in the problem of improving U.S. 41. We were not aware of the water situation but we must agree with you that it is a bad thing. "We will do what we can to get some action.

I will make an effort to get down to (a Trail Improvement Association) meeting at the very first opportunity and we will plan what can be done at that time." Association members were disturbed recently when they were advised that the AAA tourist guide maps for trips from Tampa to Miami were being marked so travelers would turn east on State Road 80 at Fort Myers so they could avoid the hazards of the inadequate strip of U.S. 41 at Bonita Springs. Checks by the News-Press, however, indicate that the routing now recommended is U.S. 41 all the way to Naples. Lion at Whsel Of Stalled Car RHINEBECK, N.Y.

If) -To borrow an advertising phrase, the auto occupants had no "tiger In their tank" but they did have a lion in the car. It happened about 2 a.m. Sunday on Mylan Hill Road. The small foreign car stopped, apparently out of gas. The couple got out to investigate.

To their mingled fright and amazement, a lion strolled up. The car doors were open and the beast hopped in. The humans slammed the doors shut and hotfooted it to a telephone. State police, although wondering if it was a put-on, re-ponded. Sure enough, they found the king of beasts in the driver's seat.

Explanation: the 2'-year-old animal, named Simba, escaped earlier from the Dutchess County fair grounds in Rhinebeck. An attendant of the Roseknoll Animal Farm, Staatsburg, came and took Simba away. STILL LOCATED AT 4860 PALM BEACH BLVD. (S1 Mmr Efforts of the Bonita Springs Trail Improvement Association to bring about the raising, draining, widening and repaying of the Tamiaml Trail (U.S. 41) through its community may receive the support of the Peninsula Motor Club of the American Automobile Association.

In a letter to the News-Press, Hampton Dunn, president of the club, said he will attend one of the weekly meetings of the association to help with planning a continuing campaign to get state and federal action on correcting major deficiencies in what has been described as "the worst section of a federal highway in the state." Dunn was advised of the Fate of Child In Dcubt Here The fate of a 10-month-old baby boy now in the County Children's Home appeared to be in doubt Sunday night. The situation came to light during the investigation conducted by Detective Frank Wanicka into the activities of two couples who are accused of going on a six-state spending spree on stolen credit cards. The two couples are Jack Ross Walker Jr. and Glenda Ann Marshall, 16 of Springfield, Mo. and Roger Pearson, 23, and Judy Festie Pearson, 25, address unknown.

Walker, Miss Marshall and the Pearsons had all been temporary residents of Ven- ice, where Pearson's stepfather had provided them with a house? The baby, Jack Ross Walker III, was found when police called there following the arrest of Walker and Miss Marshall in Fort Myers on suspicion of grand theft. Wanicka said "innumerable" items were found which had been acquired illegally, through the use of credit cards issued to Charles L. Goist of Sedalia, 111. Goist had reported the cards stolen earlier this month. Wanicka said the two couples used them freely to pay for rental cars, motel accommodations, meals, gasoline and oil, and merchandise the principally from the J.

C. Pen-' ney Stores. Wanicka said goods purchased with the use of a Penney credit card were returned to stores of the same chain in other cities for cash refunds. Some were pawned, too, he declared. He estimated the amount involved may reach about $3,000 if the motel accommodations are included.

All four persons are now in the county jail. The detectives said he expected the Juvenile Court would assume custody of the child but what would haopen to him after that was not predictable.

Police said the demonstrators numbered 1,000 at the end of their march in Grant Park, across the street from the Conrad Hilton Hotel, where a block-long line of police stood and watched. The demonstration began when a group of several hundred hippie-clad youths moved out of Lincoln Park on the Near North Side.

They picked up chanting supporters as they trekked through the downtown district and past hotels where delegates to the Democratic National Convention were staying. Vice President Hubert H. Humphrey and Sen. Eugene J. McCarthy, candidates for the Democratic presidential nomination, arrived safely at the Sherman House under heavy security.

Across the street at the Civic Center Plaza a large group of sign-wielding, chanting demonstrators had gathered before the candidates' arrival. There was no violence and there were no arrests during the march, which lasted about 314 hours. HAWAIIAN 1.1 1 IV add one hour for daylight time.) LOW :14 p.m. :24 p.m. :42 p.m.

:02 p.m. Europe confronts an over-armed Russia." Because of the new situation in Central Europe, the chancellor said, he was awaiting his scheduled talks with President de Gaulle on Sept. 28 in Bonn "with great suspense." The Soviet coup in Czechoslovakia made it imperative for West Germans "to heighten our watchfulness," he said, and to "make the necessary sacrifices for our defense." He called it all the more reason to unite Western Europe, saying, "the great hour of the Europeans has come again." The chancellor asserted that the events in Czechoslovakia heralded "a new epoch which one can, it is true, suppress by force, but which cannot be held up for long." He said the Soviet Union was playing "a losing game" and presenting the German Federal Republic as an "evil power" and argued that the invasion brought upon Moscow the "risk of isolation." He said Bonn did not desire a completely isolated and lonely Soviet Union "because we must talk with them about the German question." Other West German politicians, including some from the Social Democratic Party, took a conservative line somewhat similar to the chancellor on Western security problems. Herbert Wehner, minister of all-German affairs, called on the West European governments to "do everything conceivable" to "demilitarize" the current East-West confrontation, but he also asked for stronger NATO security measures. Conrad Ahlers, the government spokesman who is close to the Social Democratic Party leaders, said in a radio interview that West Europe would do well to revive the idea of a "European defense community" as originally proposed in 1954.

He said such an alliance should indirectly include the United States because of its nuclear arms guarantee for the Western powers. --iWj- nf well wishers Sunday took his family on ride Disneyland Amusement Park in nearby Anaheim.

He said he is busy trying to qualify for the ballot in all states and is consulting with advisers on a legal way to choose a running mate.

Tlmot Strvlct) BONN Chancellor Kurt George Kiesinger Sunday night called for a summit conference of the government heads 6f NATO countries to wake up the Western nations and prompt them to "watch over liberty and security." Speaking over the Sudwest radio station about the impact of the Czechoslovak crisis on the Western alliance, he said a summit conference of NATO leaders should reflect on "what one can do to fill this tired workaday operation with life." He said this should "in no way mean that NATO should be instilled with bellicose spirit, but rather with the simple recognition of where one stands." Kiesinger said he thought President de Gaulle of France might make his relationship to NATO "more distinct and decisive" as a result of the Warsaw Pact's action against Czechoslovakia. De Gaulle, he added, knows that a peace settlement in Europe cannot be brought about if a defenseless West Bishops Close Lambeth Meet LONDON If!

The sharp increase was attributed to "the usual lag between changes in mortgage rates and in security yields and the effect of recent increases in some state-determined rate ceilings." The board said the average term to maturity on new home loans approved in July was 25.5 years, about the same as in June. However, the average loan-to-price ratio declined from 74.4 to 73.7 per cent. The average contract interest rate rose 16 basis points to 7.04 per cent during the month, the board said. This rate was modified slightly by a decline of nine basis points in Initial loan charges and fees, amortized over an assumed 10-year period.
