a little bit and Better our execution offensively so we don't have any center quarterback exchange fumbles and we're gonna work very hard on tackling and gang tackling and pursuing the football and stopping the veer attack that washington runs and worked very very hard on our pass defense because they throw the ball they threw the ball a lot last year and they threw it 29 times against Cincinnati so we know we're going to get a better pass defense test than we got last week against texas tech material-wise is washington a little bit more physical than texas tech perhaps well they're bigger and stronger than than texas tech i don't think they're as quick but they're big and strong and they hit you were there any real positive points to pick out of the last week's loss to texas tech not much good sometimes comes out of a loss well i think basically our defense got stronger as the game went on i think which is good it's a young defense that could should come on and get better we're gonna have to not make as many missed tackles and we're gonna have to strengthen our third down and long situation offensively phil danowsky looked very good running the football in blocking and did a good job and i think buddy hardeman's just a step away from breaking some big plays and we've got to get the ball more to mike strong i Guess we're gonna have to throw the ball a little more to open up the attack they've never had the opportunity with the buyers of their products and the processes of their products and The nfo for the first time has given the producers of agricultural commodities that opportunity and with us having given that opportunity in with a correct understanding i have no fear about what we can show the SEC that they or no other government agency is going to take over the nfo or dominate it or destroy it why do you think the city is pursuing this line of action I'm not quite sure because we have a program at [kars?] pool that has been effective for 25 years and most of the parents are much in favor of keeping it right where it is We have over 1200 signatures of Concerned people there have been letters to the editor there have been phone calls

wants it needs the tractors from the in this unit we would have four agents permanently assigned to the investigation of rural crimes these agents would be stationed throughout the state would assist the sheriff and the local officials in the investigation of agricultural related crimes such as larceny of grain larceny of farm machinery farm chemicals and the like these agents would also work in the area of crime prevention and one of the things that we discussed at this resolutions meeting was the titling of farm tractors and the titling of large combines also the trip tickets that would

in the federal courthouse in des moines colonel (inaudible) will your office be directly responsible let's say that a draft evader calls in from whenever in iowa or canada and wants to turn himself in in effect what will you do if a young man should call us and wishes to turn himself in we will refer him to the united states attorney and he in turn will take the case and It'll then be handled by the department of justice to determine whether or not this young man must perform some type of alternate service In order to be returned to the so the role of the selective service in iowa will come after the man has been processed by the attorney's office yes in other words we will be responsible for his work assignment and then supervises performance during that period of assignment how different will the jobs that will be established or the work established for the Draft evaders or deserters be from conscientious objectors what they've done in the past the information that we have available to us at this time indicates that the type of work these young men will be doing will be comparable to that performed by conscientious objectors in the past (inaudible) Donaldson the us attorney here at the federal courthouse says he hasn't had any specific calls asking for conditional amnesty he has had a number of hypothetical calls asking for information from the us courthouse in
