Tech royalty Melinda Mulloy of Timber Lake and James Gustafson of Brooklyn Center, were crowned king and queen of M-Week festivities at the South Dakota School of Mines Technology coronation ceremony Thursday evening. M-Week activites continue Friday with Barnett's widow is offered his legislative seat SIOUX FALLS (AP) Kathy Barnett of Aberdeen, wife of the late Rep. Joe Barnett, has been asked by Gov. Bill Janklow to succeed her husband in the Legislature.
Mrs. Barnett confirmed Thursday that Janklow had offered her the position, but she said she has not made a decision on the appointment yet. Mrs. Barnett said she had no timetable for her answer but that she wanted to give the request more thought. Barnett served as Republican majority leader of the state House of Representatives from 1979 until his death May 1.
He was first elected to the House in 1966. State Sen. Peg Lamont, R-Aberdeen, said she recommended Mrs. Barnett to Janklow early after Rep. Barnett died.
"She reflects her husband's goals and standards. She also has enormous capability and stamina. I think it would be a wonderful appointment," Mrs. Lamont said. Mrs.
Lamont said she expected Mrs. Barnett would seek election to the office if she accepted the governor's appointment. "I think if she did it at all, she would do it with a plan to run for the office." Jim Soyer, an aide to Janklow, said it is the governor's practice to offer positions to the spouse when the position is vacated by death. Richard Kolker of Groton, chairman of the Brown County Republican Party, said a list of names has been prepared to submit for consideration should Mrs. Barnett turn down the appointment.
FIRST CHURCH OF CHRIST, SCIENTIST INVITES THE PUBLIC TO A FREE LECTURE ENTITLED: "GOD'S PROTECTING POWER" by Patricia Lyeth Webb, C.S.B., NY, NY (Member of the Christian Science Board of Lectureship) TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, at 8:00 P.M. At the Rushmore Plaza Civic Center, Rm. 101 Rapid City, South Dakota Child Care Provided Fire restrictions lifted in most of Black Hills Dick Willis Outdoor Writer Fire restrictions have been lifted on the Black Hills National Forest in South Dakota. But most fires are still banned in the Wyoming Black Hills, which are dryer. Forest Supervisor James Mathers lifted the restrictions Thursday.
"I hope the worst fire season is over, but I wouldn't guarantee it by any stretch of the imagination," said Al Braddock, at Forest Service headquarters in Custer. "The critical fire season, I think, is over. We're back to normal." Braddock said there is still danger. However, it is not nearly as dangerous as several weeks ago when one little match under a log could have been started it on fire. All fires in the Black Hills except those in developed campgrounds had been banned until Thursday.
There were also restrictions on logging. Recent rains in western South Dakota helped, Braddock said. "What we looked at yesterday was precipitation in the last 13 days since the beginning of the month," Braddock said. "The majority of the forest has had over 1 inch of rain. Our fuel moistures are better, I won't say safe.
thing that is neat we're getting another greenup. That greenup always helps in the fall because it dampens any fire that starts, and slows it down." Drug charge rumors denied in Philip PHILIP Haakon County has empaneled its first general grand jury in four years. But rumors that multiple drug-related indictments had been issued against many prominent citizens are untrue, say authorities. "The grand jury hasn't issued multiple indictments against anybody," said Haakon County State's Attorney Tom C. Barnett who admitted to hearing his own name named in the rumor.
The grand jury began Aug. 22, said Barnett, but he declined to say whether the panel is investigating illicit drug activity. The panel, however, has indicted one person for destruction of public property. Sheriff Danny Gartner did say, "'We are investigating some illicit drug-type operations." However, they don't involve any people named in the rumor, the sheriff said. Barnett said the rumors are slanderous, untrue and designed to divert the grand jury's work or impede its investigation.
The rumors are "so widespread and given so much credibility I felt it was necessary to set the record straight," said the prosecutor.

A total of 338 fires burned 41,630 acres.
They cost millions of dollars to put out. Wood and grass has soaked up water from rain in the past 10 days. "Now you would have to use fine fuels to start a log, like if you or I wanted start a campfire," Braddock said. "The majority of the forest is back to where it is acceptable to rescind restrictions. The Bear Lodge Mountains in the Wyoming Black Hills have gotten only two-tenths of an inch of rain.
It is still illegal to have a fire there except in developed recreation sites, and to smoke cigarettes in most places. There are also restrictions on welding and using chainsaws. Logging will be allowed in the after. noon again. "Logging is an acceptable risk now, based on the amount that is going on up there and where it's going on," Braddock said.

UNDER Daschle urges farm families, groups to work together WASHINGTON (AP) Rep.
Tom Daschle, said farm families and farm organizations should work together to win White House backing for a 1985 farm bill as strong as the one adopted Tuesday by the House Agricultural Committee. "The threat of a veto could kill everything the House Agriculture Committee has accomplished unless farm families ban together to change his (Reagan's) mind," said Daschle. The Reagan Administration said the measure was too expensive and risked presidential veto unless key provisions are rewritten when it goes before the full House, probably next week. Daschle said the White House threatened to veto the proposed farm bill unless immediate cuts in farm prices are made. "It is absolutely imperative that the farm community unite in demanding that these veto threats be removed and that a farm bill offering as a bare minimum at least the $4.50 wheat and $3.25 for feed grains contained in our House committee bill be enacted by the Congress," said Daschle.
