Former first lady Betty Ford was back

nearly four weeks of hospitalization for
addiction to alcohol and medicine.
A smiling Mrs. Ford left the Long

Former President Gerald Ford, who
returned from a speaking tour Thursday,

the weekend, said family spokesman Bob
Barrett.
“She's tack home and she’s happy as

"This barbaric act will not go

Lt. Gen. Jack R. Dutton, chief of staff

saying it was intended to discourage

put South African casualties at five dead.

Ward waa charged with six counts of
fraud through use of the mail aad another
coma of causing a fraudulently obtained
security to be mailed.
At Ward's trial, testimony showed that
three Arkansas residents invested
$57,000 in Ward’s company, which
promised investors it would deliver one
ounce of silver for every dollar invested.
At that time, silver was valued at $4.50 an
ounce.
Testimony showed that investors
received neither any silver nor their
money back.
Ward proposed using an electromag-
netic separator to extract the silver from
the ore. He told investors he could get
1,961 ounces of silver from each ton of ore
processed. He said the separator was
invented by a consultant, Dr.E.L.
Moragne.
At his trial, the government said the
ore deposits contained no commercial
quantities of silver, with each ton
containing an average of 40 ounces of
silver. The government also said Dr.
Moragne did not have a doctoral degree.
HOUSTON (AP) - While yet
another new building was going
up next door, inside a
112-year-old church on the edge
of downtown Houston partici-
pants in a two-day conference
began to talk Friday about
revitalizing the core of the
nation’s fastest-growing city.
And although there was
agreement among the bankers,
developers, city officials, educa-
tors, businessmen knd com-
munity leaders that action is
necessary to restore vitality to
the heart of the city,how to do so
was open to question.
The conference, headquarter-
ed at Antioch Baptist Church, is
co-sponsored by the City of
Houston, the Tezas Historical
Foundation and Commission
and other civic groups.
Gerald Hines, whose invest-
ment development firm is
responsible for much of
Houston's striking skyline, said
good commercial architecture
helps create a competitive
business climate. He also
admitted later that Houston's
inner city needs more than
impressive skyscrapers to keep
it alive.
“We've got to get people to
move back into the center city •
people on the street at night is
what keeps it alive,” Hines
said, "and good mass transit is
going to be very important."
