"Knowing Changes in ratings system By Frank Sanello *' UPI Entertainment Reporter HOLLYWOOD -- The Cuisinart juicing of a monster and grisly demise of an Indian in Steven Spielberg's latest films may have been the catalyst to alter the mo tion picture rating system. Reports of angry audiences marching out of theaters after the mother in "Gremlins" stuffed a ti tle monster in the microwave and another beast in a fruit juicer, along with even greater dismay over an Indian priest who uses his bare hands to pluck out a victim's heart in "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom/' have finally convinced the industry to sub divide the PG movie rating. Jack Valenti, head of the Motion Picture Association of America, told UPI that after haggling for years he was holding meetings with the studios, distributors and exhibitors to create "some category that will contain more in formation and a strong ad- onitory caution so parents will IOW if the movie is something more than PG and less than R." Founded by Valenti more than 16 years ago, the MPAA's Classification and Ratings Ad- minstration puts all member studio films in one of four categories: G (for all audiences), PG (parental guidance), R (restricted: under 17 not admitted unless accompanied by a parent or adult guardian) and X (no one under 17 admitted). The new rating, which will pro bably be called PG-13. will warn parents that preteen children should not see the film. Unlike the R and X ratings, the new PG- 13 will be voluntarily enforced by parents. I POOLS N STUFF EVERYTHING YOU NEED POOLS-SPAS-SAUNAS U.P.S. A D.H.L.

She has saved the taxpayers thousands of dollars over the past two years by repairing the tattered flags of the County Farm Park War Memorial. County Court Commissioner Gene Huckstep calls Mrs. Froemsdorf a "super senior citizen." It was Huckstep who first brought the problem of the damaged flags to her attention. The memorial, which was com pleted about two years ago, sits atop one of the highest hills In the county. Because the flagpole rises 80 feet above the hill, the flag Is often buffeted by strong winds. The original flag, measuring 15- by-25 feet, soon was badly torn. County officials have ex perimented with several different types of flags, but all became rag ged. Mrs. Froemsdorf, 73, first learn ed about the situation while hav ing coffee with Huckstep and some friends at a pancake house. Huckstep mentioned to the group that the flags needed repair, and an initial bid was $100 per flag. "I said, 'Gene, I'll fix those flags cheaper than that!" ' Mrs. Froemsdorf said. "I don't do anything else for my community," she said. "Knowing the county Judges like I do -- I've lived here all of my life and I know all three of them real well -- I thought, 'Now here's an op portunity that I can do something forthecounty.'" The county reimburses Mrs. Froemsdorf for all the materials she uses. But she donates her time for free. Huckstep has told her that she has saved the county more than $2,000. "That made me feel real good," she said. Mrs. Froemsdorf lives In an apartment above the Acme Elec tric Co., a business run by her three children. When she is work ing on a flag, it takes up most of the space she has. "It's a chore," she said. "It stretches clear into the living room from the kitchen, through a hallway. You have to walk over it togetout." "I've always done It just alone and thought nothing of it," said Mrs. Froemsdorf. "I didn't even dream that it would amount to anything. I figure I live in this county and that's something I can do for my county." Mrs. Froemsdorf, who flies the Stars and Stripes outside her apartment, said she notices the condition of the hilltop flag everytime she drives by. "I keep an eye on it," she said. "I do it as a labor of love for my county." Jhu&l/aSwi. HARDWARE STORES We've got what it takes ANNIVERSARY BUNT DAYS SAVE Weather All \ Set-n-Hue end Mervelustre" Reduced to Spring 1980 Prices!

Computer crackdown imminent By Barbara Rosewicz United Press International WASHINGTON - The House Judiciary Committee took the first step this week toward mak ing it a crime for home computer operators to break into confiden tial financial data banks.

His proposal would make it a misdemeanor to raid computer files containing private credit histories or banking information. Penalty would be up to a year in prison and a $5,000 fine. GUckman propose$ the amend ment specifically t6 outlaw such incidents as the r&ent raid by computer "hackers" on TRW In formation Services Division com puters that contain credit in formation on 90 million people. The term "hackers" is used for home computer oprators who break secret codes to gain access via telephone lines into private or government computer files- The bill, which now goes to the full House, also provides stiffer penalties for breaking into government computers and ob taining classified information or disclosing any confidential in formation gained through an il legal computer break-in.
