April 16, 1977 State woman shot at bus station CHICAGO (AP) A young Wisconsin woman was shot and seriously wounded Friday night outside the Greyhound Bus Station by a man who police said commandeered a cab, then was captured only a block away. Sharyl Sturtevant, 20, of Superior, was in stable condition in Henrotin Hospital after being shot once in the chest, a hospital spokesman said.

Vitamins can be sold in stores MADISON, Wis. (AP) Vitamins are not necessarily drugs and may be sold in stores other than drug stores, Atty. Gen. Bronson La Follette said Friday. La Follette's opinion was in response to a request from the Assembly.

The request was following the introduction of a bill which would prohibit the sale of vitamins by establishments other than drug stores. Vitamins not intended for use in the diagnosis, cure, investigation, treatment or prevention of diseases are not drugs, La Follette said. The attorney general noted that the U.S. Supreme Court has upheld a federal regulation that vitamins up to a certain dosage are merely food supplements. "I recognize some cases, as of persons suffering from scurvy or rickets, a vitamin deficiency may be so severe as to constitute a disease," La Follette said.

"In the ordinary case, however, vitamins are purchased merely as a diet supplement and are not intended to be used for the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment or prevention of disease." Bill prohibits denial of hospital emergency aid MADISON, Wis. (AP) Hospitals would be prohibited from denying emergency treatment to persons who could not pay their bills under legislation introduced by Rep. Milton Lorman, R-Fort Atkinson. "I look at this bill as preventive medicine," Lorman said. "For part all Wisconsin hospitals do an excellent job in their emergency rooms and quickly treat pateints.

Hospitals could be fined $1,000 for violation. Says tax plan hampers mineral exploration CRANDON, Wis. (AP) Proposed mining tax legislation for Wisconsin has already hampered mineral exploration, a lumber company spokesman complained to legislators Friday. Gordon Connor, vice president of Connor Forest Products Laona, told a joint legislative committee that several mining firms had backed out of deals to explore for minerals on land owned by his company because of the pending legislation.

Under the proposal, mining firms would pay nothing on the first $100,000 in net proceeds year. The tax rate would be 8 per cent for up to $1 million; 12 per cent for up to $10 million and 16 per cent for more than $10 million. That "is not only unreasonable, it's confiscatory," Connor said.

By ROBERT GLASS Associated Press Writer PHILADELPHIA (AP) An aerospace engineer whose colleagues call him the "garbageman of has developed a way to pluck orbiting satellites from space and bring them safely back to earth. The plan is the first practical method devised for clearing some 3,000 man made objects now littering the galaxy hundreds of miles above the earth, said Dr.

Marshall Kaplan of Pennsylvania State University. Kaplan said he presented the proposal this week to the National Aeronautics Space Administration, which commissioned his research and is considering the plan for the Space Shuttle program in mid1979. The Defense Department also is "very interested" in the retrieval proposal as a way in which foreign satellites could be captured if they posed a threat to the United States, Kaplan said. "It is getting messy up there, and the Air Force may be thinking it would be cheaper retrieve the satellites than to continue tracking them," Kaplan said. He said the main reason for bringing the space junk back to earth is so scientists could study those that failed and relaunch others, saving millions of dollars.

The satellites cost between $2 million and $40 million. "'The biggest obstacle to capturing objects in space is the fact that many of them are spin- Purchase of school land requested WITTENBERG A delegation representing the Village Board of Wittenberg and the Wittenberg Chamber of Commerce has asked the Wittenberg Birnamwood school, board if it would sell 10 to 17 acres of land for an industrial site. The request, made at this week's school board meeting, involves land at the northwest corner of the Witt Birn High School site. Allen Voelz, spokesman for the delegation, noted the land is being sought for relocation of an industry which has been in the village for two generations. The firm needs acreage to expand its business, and if suitable land cannot be found, it will leave the village.

It was hoped the new operation could be begun by July 1. After much discussion, it was noted the school board could not act on its own to sell district land and that the decision must be made by either a special school district meeting or at the annual meeting. Part of the area in question had been promised to the high school agriculture department for tree planting purposes and the district is also currently involved in long range planning for tennis courts and diamonds for existing school athletic teams. Although it was noted that transfer of the industry would cause a loss of valuation in the village for school taxing purposes, Richard Dignan, superintendent, said the school board's first responsibility is to determine if the land will be needed for school purposes. The delegation was asked to submit a more complete study on the sewer and water installation to the requested land.

In other action, Dignan reported on the work with the CESA 7 and the Marathon County Handicapped Board in the transition of placing all programs with the agency. He also reported a sex discrimination suit initiated by Mary Brinckman had been dismissed by the Department of Labor, Industry and Human Relations and an employe grievance will be Chairman of GM granted pay increase to $955,000 DETROIT (AP) Executives of the nation's top two automakers have been granted raises bringing their salaries to the highest U.S. levels for corporate leaders. General Motors which reported record profits and sales last year, granted bonuses, and increases bringing Chairman Thomas A. Murphy's pay to $955,000, while No.

2 automaker Ford Motor Co. announced it had tripled the wages of chairman Henry Ford II and President Lee Iacocca for 1976 to a record $970,000. The executives' pay was disclosed Friday in proxy statements announcing the firms' annual shareholder meetings next month. The pay increases, mostly resulting from sharply higher bonuses, reestablished the auto industry at the top of the corporate pay ladder. According to a recent Business Week survey completed prior to the pay disclosures, Harold S.

Geneen, chairman of International Telephone Telegraph, had been listed as the top salaried executive of 1976 with total pay of $846,398. Auto executive salaries plunged in 1974 and 1975 when an industry recession triggered elimination or reduction of The Family of JAMES L.

Under the plan, the space shuttle would carry a cargo of water and point a giant nozzle at the spinning satellite. Because water in a vacuum freezes when it strikes an object, the satellite would temporarily be coated with ice. As the ice turned from solid to gas, Kaplan said, it would slow the satellite's momentum, permitting a linkup. Kaplan said satellites that are not spinning pose no problems other than hookup. Kaplan and Douglas Freesland, a graduate assistant, developed the retrieval method during a 32-month study commissioned by the NASA Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala.

For years the space center has puzzled over what to do about costly satellites orbiting uselessly. Scientists have been concerned that the space junk could cause an outer space collision. While the probability of that happening is small, Kaplan said, the Air Force does track all man made objects over a certain size. settled by a single arbitrator rather than a panel of three arbitrators. Another employe grievance was tabled until April 25.

The board adjourned into closed session for the purpose of bargaining with school administrators. Incentives urged to cut health costs MILWAUKEE (AP) Doctors and patients should have more incentive to cut down costs of health care, the State Medical Society of Wisconsin was told Friday. "You have patients who badger doctors, you know 'Put me in the hospital, I'm covered (by insurance) or 'Don't send me just yet, I can't face the said Walter director of health policy and planning for the Inter-Study health research group of Excelsior, Minn. "And most doctors are agreeable to that, since it's covered and doesn't hurt them or the patient." McClure suggested different approaches. One was paying a fixed amount ahead of time to a group of doctors who agree to provide all health care the people need, greatly decreasing the incentive to provide unnecessary services.

And another was requiring patients to pay a percentage of their bills rather than having deductible insurance. BERGERSON, George Arrangements Pending at Peterson Funeral Home. PETERSON Funeral Home Ph. 845-6900 903 East Third St. BRAATZ, Mrs.
