PAtSK 1 1 Wednesday, February 8, 1981 I HERALD AND NEWS, Klamath Fall, Oregon Cold Digger Poor Prospect Bv ANN LANDERS Dear Ann Landers: I went with this girl (or two years. She is very beautiful and I considered myself lucky to have the picas- ure of her com pany. I'm not very good-look ing and I have a slight limp. Mv job paid hJJ well and I was Ecnerous with Lila. When she needed $250 to get her teeth fixed I gave her the money. Last year her brother got Into a little trou ble and I paid a lawyer $300 in advance to take the case. I bought her many nice gifts and helped with payments on her car. The company I worked for went out of business and I've been with out a lob for almost six weeks. Lila has turned very cold. Last night she told me I'd better start going with other girls because we are incompatible. I had hoped one day wo'd be married. What does this sound like to you? BRUSHED OFF Dear Off: Take LUa'i advice and start going with other girls. One who would drop you when the sledding got rough would make a poor wife. Dear Ann Landers: Two years ao wo moved to a lovely part of the United States. While some sections suffer from blizzards we have beautiful sunny weather. My husband has some relatives he hadn't seen tn years. Three months after we moved here they wrote that they would like to visit us.

We gave them the best bedroom in the house and knocked ourselves out entertaining them, When Ihey left it was just as if they had never been here. They didn't even drop a card saying thank you for the nice time. Yes terday we received a letter say ing they had been meaning to write but were busy. They want to visit us again around Easter. I feel we'd be fools to say yes Mv husband says some people just arcn t demonstrative and we shouldn't hold it against them be cause they didn't thank us last year. What do you say? DOOR MAT RELATIVES Dear Relatives: There's a big difference between being demon strative and displaying ordinary, every-day manners. People who don't have the cour tesy to drop line after accept ing 17 days of bed and hoard don't deserve to be Invited back. Write that you'd be happy to make reservations for them In a hotel If they will let you know what they want to spend. Dear Ann Landers: Four years ago our daughter had a child out of wedlock. We are raising the girl as our own although every one in town knows ol her bacx ground. Next month we are moving to a distant city where we are not known. My husband says we should tell the truth because If th people in this town accepted us they will do so elsewhere. Furthermore he says someone who knows the story is bound to appear and then we will look like liars and fools. I say we should say nothing and let people assume the child is ours. After all this is nobody's business. What do you say? UNSETTLED Dear Unsettled: Of course It's nobody's business, but unfortunate ly, this is the type 'of business some people like best. Introduce the little girl as your granddaughter. No further expla- nation Is necessary. For the child's sake you must not have two sets of stories afloat. Are you going steady? Making marriage plans? If so, send for Ann Landers' booklet, "Before You Marry Is It Love Or Sex? enclosing with your request 20 cents in com and a long, self- addressed, stamped envelope. tAnn Landera will be glad to help you with your problems. Send! them to her In care of this news paper enclosing a stamped, self addressed envelope.) Militia Measure Wins Approval SALEM (AP) - The Senate ap proved Tuesday a House resolu tion for a constitutional amend ment to eliminate the provision that men of the state militia elect their own officers. That 102-ycar-old rule has not been used for many years. As the House passed It, the reso lution also would repeal the pro vision for-excmptlon of conscien tious objectors from military serv ice. The House sponsors said there are adequate safeguards in feder al and state law, But the Senate voted to retain the exemption for them within the Constitution. Now it has to go back to the House for considera tion of this change.

' Seven projects worth $841,000, are presently under construction and bids are scheduled to be let soon on two more proposals, in cluding the resurfacing of the main runway at the field. Col. Rupert C. Welch, base com mander, interprets the building program as a sign that Kingsloy Field Is hero to slay. Colonel Welch told the Herald and News Tuesday that 1 no significant changes are expected In the oper ational status of the base in the near future. Kingslcy Field fills a vital air defense gap between San Fran cisco and Portland," Colonel Welch said. "The F101-B 'Voodoos' based at Kingslcy provide a tre mendous striking force and de terrent to potential aggression. Just as Kingslcy will continue to provide air defense fof the Klamath Basin, so will It main tain Its vital contribution to the area's economy. The base .pours more than $n,250,0OO a year Into Klamath coffors.-The biggest por tion of this amount is the $5,250,- 000 annual payroll. The remaindcrj is spent wilh local business firms on contracts and purchases. Although Kingslcy Field is one of the smaller Air Force bases in the country, it has total assets of 85 million dollars. This in cludes 22 101s worth $l'i million each. The building program on the base is a cooperative effort be tween the Air Force and Navy. The 13th Naval District in Seattle cooperates with Kingslcy Base en gineer, Maj. Thomas D. Wilson, of the 408lh Fighter Group. The Air Force handles minor new con KUmarh Pain.

The importance of these projects cannot, be overstated They add up to solid evidence to squelch any rumor mongers who say "the base is moving out Rather, it is evident that Kingslcy Field is a permanent installation and likely to remain so for many years. $260,032 Paid To 611 Veterans SALEM (AP)-The state of Ore gon paid $260,032 in educational benefits to 611 veterans last year, the Department of Veterans Af fairs said today.

Pearson, D-Portland; and Thomas R. Ma- honey, D-Portland. The bill provides 'that when a retraction is published on the front page, that would mitigate the damages.

Lay Away i ; Or Use . ; 'i Your Charge ', i Account Underway Three dozen search planes flew over the Columbia Gorge east of Portland Tuesday without a sign of the Browns' plane.
