2 Th IndJoumal, Grrwrnwood, S.C., Frtday.Fab. 27, 1981 Loans Police investigate flim-flam incident Today This day Good afternoon. Today is Friday. Feb. 27, the 58th day of 1981.

There are 307 days left in the year. The sun rose today at 7, will set at 6: 23 and will rise Saturday at 6 59 On this date in 1861, the "Warsaw massacre" occured when Russian troops fired on a crowd protesting Russian rule. a paper bag. They took the woman to the C. 72 Bypass and Montague Avenue, where she took some of her money out of a bank and gave it to the two women, who then disappeared.

In an incident, which may be related. Chief Young said two young black women in a black car had approached another older Greenwood woman with a similar story, but the woman told them they should return the money to where they found it. A 69-year-old Greenwood woman was robbed of an undisclosed amount of money Thursday during a suspected flimflam incident Thursday, according to Police Chief John H. Young. Police reports said two young black women in a black car approached the woman while she was shopping on the square and told her they had found $9,000 in cash and some bonds in (Coatiaued from page 1) creditors.

The bankers, who held out the longest, agreed only this week to write off millions of dollars in loans. Company officials have said the last major problem in winning the guarantees was overcome when board members unofficially approved a revised Agreement between Chrysler and more than 100 creditors to which the company owes more than $1.1 billion. Published reports indicated a key part of the agreement called for payment of about 168 million of that debt within 30 days. Several New York banks reportedly demanded quick payment of at least that much out of fear the company would soon go under even with the new cash infusion and the banks would end up with nothing. Meanwhile, Chrysler officials were expected to announce later today that the The lenders' willingness to write off a large portion of Chrysler's debt is an important part of the overall plan.

Congressional rules covering the arrangement say that before board members approve the federal guarantees which could eventually come out of taxpayers' pockets they must conclude that the company can someday stand on its own and not be driven into bankruptcy by creditors. Other major parts of the plan call for big financial sacrifices by Chrysler's workers and suppliers. In an effort to save their jobs, the workers reluctantly agreed to forgo about $783 million in wages and other benefits over the next two years. Suppliers, owed about $350 million by Chrysler, also are making substantial concessions. Much of the $400 million in new money is headed for suppliers.

company lost $1.77 billion last year, a record for any U.S. corporation. Losses totaled $299 million in the fourth quarter, but company officials said the loan guarantees and improving sales will make 1981 a much better year. Chrysler already has received $800 million of the $1.5 million in loan guarantees authorized by Congress in December 1979. Company officials have said they will not seek the other $300 million.

An earlier version of the latest agreement, tentatively approved by the loan board last month, called for Chrysler to pay off $500 million of its debt at 30 cents on the dollar over a year's time, beginning later this spring. The quick $68 million payment called for in the new version will count against that payment. The rest of the debt is to be converted to Chrysler preferred stock.

Cox pointed out to the commissioners as they looked at slides of the site, that a concrete foundation already has been poured for the school.

Cox said a pumping station probably would be required for a trunk line because the church property is situated in such a low lying area. "It's an awfully expensive line to serve one or two customers." Cox said. "Without a (sewer) subdistrict out there our hands are tied," Commission Chairman Johnson Craig said. He directed Cox to notify the church's pastor of the commission's denial of his request. In other matters, the commission approved a resolution drawn by commission attorney Bill Dean to accept temporary easements into the West Alexander Plant granted by Junior Anderson and Abney Mills, and drop the easement the commission has on its current entrance.

The easements granted are valid until December 1981. The commission plans to build a new entrance way into the plant on an easement granted below Cincinnati Milacron.

Now Bailie says he wants to make wine. "Jerusalem artichoke wine isn't a grabber. You may have to hold your nose to drink it," he said. But if the wine could be converted to alcohol, the artichoke may gain value as a source for liquid fuel, he says.

can methane be produced from Jerusalem artichokes? The answer was yes. And not only can you get methane from the "poor man's potatoes" but also edible chips, chiffon pie and maybe wine. So says Richard C. Bailie, a chemical engineering professor at West Virginia University, who got $29,817 from the U.S. Energy Department to study the vegetable, which is a tuber and not an artichoke.

Bailie says the Jerusalem artichoke would be a more reliable source of methane than food grains like corn. "They can grow on marginal land, and with three to five times the yield per acre in comparison to corn. require no cultivation, no fertilization and they're drought resistant," he says. They also rot quickly, providing 60 percent methane and 40 percent carbon dioxide. "The rate they convert to methane is probably three times as fast as with other materials," Bailie says.
