Saturday oilman Howard B.
Keck will be questioned again
regarding his connection with
the vetoed natural gas bill.
George M. Fay, chief counsel
nf the new Senate Lobby W-
ventieatina committee, said the
California oilman will serve "as
a starting point" for its investi

So far, the committee has held
one hearing. It heard testimony
regarding the activities of the
General Gas committee which
spent $110,000 in urging support
of the natural gas bill.
Keck, president of Superior
oil, testified before a select Sen
ate committee that looked into
a $2,500 campaign contribution
rejected by Sen. Francis Case,
(R-S.D.), during the gas bill de
bate. The testimony showed that
the $2,500 came from Keek's
personal funds.
Reporting on the Case- inci
dent last month, the select com
mittee criticized "irresponsibil
ity .. . run riot" by Elmer Pat
man and John Neff, two Super

parents are invited to a service
at the Community church May

pense for parents and school dis
tricts. The eighth grade is planning a
