11 ie MuitgrxnenAcKatiscr PAGE 2B TUESDAY, JULY 28,1992, Flag Reward boosted to $175 1 for information in cat tarring for dunking an 8-week-old kitten in a tar bucket last Tuesday. The kitten was rescued and immediately adopted, but suffered hair loss and discomfort when her body was stiffened by the lingering dispute over the banner, a historian said. Cameron Napier, head of the group that oversees the First White House of the Confederacy, said she was encouraged by Mr. Tankersley's comments. Mrs.

Napier said the Battle Flag is historically inaccurate and should not be displayed over the Capitol, which is due to reopen this fall after extensive renovation. Mrs. Napier said she, like Mr. Tankersley, would prefer no Confederate flag fly over the Capitol. In the interest of compromise, both said they would support replacing the rebel banner with the Stars and Bars.

"There are some people who would call me a traitor. But it was a mistake to begin with. Why keep a mistake up there?" said Mrs. Napier. Civil rights groups and black legislators contend the Battle Flag, often used by white supremacist groups such as the Ku Klux Klan, is a symbol of racial oppression and bigotry.

The battle flag was raised over the dome during the Civil War centennial and never was removed, Mrs. Napier said. "They've got to do something before the Capitol reopens," said Mrs. Napier. "Nothing's up there now, and people are wanting to know what's going on." when Capitol renovations are completed and the flags are replaced atop the dome.

Mr. Tankersley said the Battle Flag does not belong on the dome. "You don't put a battle flag on a pole. It's inappropriate," Mr. Tankersley said.

"It's like going to church in your underwear. There's nothing immoral about it. There's nothing illegal about it. But it's inappropriate. Besides, it makes other people in the church uncomfortable." Jim Buckalew, executive assistant to Mayor Folmar, said the mayor opposes the Confederate Battle Flag on grounds of accuracy.

"He just basically feels like it needs to be historically correct," Mr. Buckalew said. The support of Mayor Folmar and Mr. Tankersley for removing the Confederate Battle Flag shows progress is being made in iprr rt rri fprj i yi NAME TIME DATE FUNERAL HOME ALIEN, Mr. Clvin D.

"It's less offensive than the Battle Flag but I see no reason why either of them has to be on top of the Capitol." Johnnie Carr, president of the Montgomery Improvement Association, doubted the possibility of a compromise.

The issue likely will resurface in October Millbrook Continued from 1B mously to the proposal. Those concerns ranged from getting approval from the town of Coosada, also served by the water system, to the city of Millbrook being held liable if the water authority defaulted on payments, which will be financed over 15 years.

"It's got Millbrook's name flashing on it," said Councilman Chip Hicks. Water authority representatives said the water system is offering its assets as collatoral for the loan, so there would be no financial danger to the city if the authority defaulted on payments. The authority, which serves about 2,300 households in west Elmore County, also plans to seek approval this week for the corporation from the Coosada Town Council.

Willis said 85 percent of the work is being done in Millbrook. Mayor Rex Fronduti said he wanted Coosada's approval simply as a good-neighbor policy. "I think once the city of Millbrook and the council understood all the implications they are for going along with this. This city council is for anything that will better this community," Millbrook attorny Robert Allen said after the meeting. The water authority, which received customer approval for the improvements in a vote this year, has had to virtually halt adding new customers because the system's 30-year-old tank could not supply any increase, authority members said.

The council is expected to appoint corporation members sometime in August. The corporation likely would be dissolved once the project is paid off, Mr. Willis said. in listing endangered species, although they can influence critical habitat areas. Mr.

Clemens said his friends in the scientific community say the Fish and Wildlife Service uses "fatally flawed science" in determining which species need protection. "The problem is, it doesn't have to be good science, it just has to be their opinion, and it becomes law because of what they have in their hip pocket," he said. "When they get that Endangered Species Act in their hip pockets, they are almost impossible to stop." Mr. Clemens said anyone who owns timberland, mines minerals or otherwise makes money off the earth should work to change the act when it comes up before Congress next year. eral of Mrs.

Gantt's children and grandchildren, have since been convicted or pleaded guilty to selling crack cocaine in front of the house. Judge Thompson did not specifically order the U.S. marshals to release Mrs. Gantt's house. Therefore, U.S.

Marshal Walter Bamberg said he would not release the house until he was given a direct order to do so. On Monday, Mr. Harmon filed a motion asking Judge Thompson to delay releasing the woman's house while the U.S. attorney's appeal of his order is pending. Judge Thompson did not immediately rule on the motion.

Judge Hobbs' order specifically directs the U.S. Marshals Service to release Oscar Perry's house. The complaint said no court date was set in the suit against Michael Kiker for four months while the case was on file, although a date usually is set within three days of the clerk's office receiving the suit. "Those cases weren't treated in the ordinary course of business in the clerk's office. That's obvious.

She was making judicial decisions on these cases," Russell County Chief Circuit Court Judge Jack Miller said, referring to Carol Kiker. The register declined comment on all allegations, except to say through her attorney that she denies causing delays in the cases. Devon Kiker said his office did not assign Sue Kiker's case a hearing date because she and her husband lived together long enough to establish a common-law marriage. He said that made her suit to transfer her Georgia divorce to Russell County unnecessary. Judge Miller said such a decision should be made by a judge, not a court clerk or register.

In a July 14 letter to the Ethics Commission, Sue Kiker complained that her case "has not been processed as all the other cases have been because Carol and Devon's son is involved." HOLMES, Eugene M.
