Seek Missing Capital Boy Sacramento police have asked for aid in search for Richard J. Smith, 11, of 2526 missing since last Monday morning. Sgt. Nancy Rodriguez of the Youth Division said officers are concerned because the boy is small four feet one inch tall and weighs 65 pounds. "Someone might be able to take advantage of him," she said.

The youth's mother, Phyllis Smith, reported to the police she learned the boy never arrived at his school, Newton Booth Elementary School, after he left home at 8 AM Monday. She described him as having blond air, blue eyes and freckles across his nose. He was wearing rust-colored jeans; blue, long-sleeve pullover shirt; white tennis shoes, and a blue windbreaker jacket.

It's long since been due." Bonetti refused to talk about the latest development. Edmonds was willing, however, saying he and his co-property owners have decided to demolish some units. He and his brother-in-law are remodeling six small cabins, Edmonds said, to see if it is economically feasible for them to do the repair work and still be able to rent to single, lowincome persons at a price they can afford. He said tenants will be hardpressed if forced to vacate their units because of demolition. The supervisor pointed out other housing in the county at equivalent rates is lacking.

"That's why we've been reluctant (to close down the small cottages)," he said. Hart, the county chief of environmental health who retires Monday, said in general that inspections by health and building department officials showed some dwellings not necessarily Edmonds' had faulty electrical wiring, weak floors, improper heating, and in some cases, gas leaks. Some units did not have running water, he said. Hart said it has taken the county a long time to move on housing conditions because of "ill-defined" laws which were only recently clarified. He said the county has been getting cooperation from property owners, adding "so far things seem to be going pretty good."

Luvaas served as the committee's assistant chairman, but during the lengthy controversy committee members emphasized the report was done on Luvaas' initiative. The Housing Advisory Committee has prepared its own report on housing conditions in the county. A public hearing will be held on this study June 7 in the county Planning Commission auditorium. "The problem at this point," said Planning Director Robert Peterson, "is the most of the programs we recommend (to improve housing) are now defunct because the federal government has suspended or terminated them. "I suspect when we get through with this thing, we're going to say 'these are problems, and the solutions we indicated initially are not available at this time'." He said he is waiting to find out what President Nixon will propose as alternatives to such standards as the Federal Housing Administration's Section 235 and 236 programs.

Luvaas echoed Peterson's concern about cutbacks in federal spending programs, and said the county must assume responsibility for providng housing for low-income person if they are forced out of the cabin courts. Luvaas is a defendant, as a result of his report, in the BonettiCraighton libel suit. all dogs be vaccinated against the disease. Dog licenses, also required by law, cost $4 and are good for one year. Rabies immunization is a prerequisite to licensing.

Schreiner said only dogs under four months of age are exempt from the rabies requirement. He said all dogs taken to the clinics must be on a leash and accompanied by an adult. The need for the rabies immunization, it was noted, is pointed up by the fact that there were 45 reported cases of rabies in wild animals in the county last year. The disease is readily transmitted between wild animals, domestic pets and humans. The clinic schedule is: Tuesday- Carson Jr.

High McClatchy Newspapers Service KELSEY. El Dorado Co. Ma70 Timm has spent a lot of her years around gold mines and she knows the precious metal when she sees it. "It looks like butter smeared all over the rocks," she says. Now Mrs.

Timm and her husband, Wilber, 77, hope to see more of the buttery substance emerge from the mine they have owned here since the 1930s, the Yellow Jacket. They recently sold mining rights to the Alhambra-Atlanta Mining which plans to invest at least $125,000 and maybe $500,000 to refurbish the Yellow Jacket and begin working the old claim. It has not been worked since 1961, the Timms said, but all the mining equipment is there, much reducing start-up costs. The official US price of gold is now $42 an ounce, but it is bringing at least twice that amount on the world market. Congress is considering legislation to make it legal again for American citizens to buy, sell and hold gold for the first time since 1934.

These three facts may spell a new gold rush in these foothills. Alhambra figures to be ready to strike it rich, no matter which gold price the company's ore will fetch. "We expect $100 a ton ore from the mine on a routine basis," said plant engineer Tom Hilberg, "and several thousand dollars a ton when we strike enrichments." Hilberg figures Yellow Jacket will produce about 12 tons of material each eight-hour shift. "This is a small tonnage operation, but one with high- grade ore," he added. Once the present refurbishing is done and mining resumes, in about two weeks, two miles of gold veins will be accessible.

They run through a number of other claims once owned and worked by the Timms, the Atlanta, Blue Point and Round Hill 1. The Timms will receive monthly payments on the sale and royalties on the gold-producing ores taken from their former claims. They've been at it since 1926, first outfitting. miners in Oakland, then moving into the foothills in 1930 to begin hardrock mining. "We didn't come up here to seek our fortune," Mrs.

Timm explained. "It just happened. If the mines never produced another dime's worth. we've got it made." School, 1324 54th and San Juan High School, 7551 Greenback Lane, Citrus Heights. Wednesday--Washington School, 1716 and Village School, 6845 Larchmont Drive, North Highlands.
