The annexation was approved by six councilmen with four abstentions. Approved unanimously was the annexation of a slightly smaller tract of land on the north side of Highway 93 South. The land includes the location of 93 Tavern and the Westerner Motel. Following the action, Root, on the request of Alderman Fred Kluesner, explained annexation procedure as follows: The council passes a resolution of intention to annex. The intention is advertised in The Times and 20 days are given in which written protests may be submitted.

The council then has a meet ing (such as Monday night's) at which protests are heard. If they are judged insufficient, the annexation may be approved. Protests Limited Only persons who actually live on and own the land to be annexed may protest unless the annexation is specifically pro hibited by some section of law, such as that prohibiting annexa tion of industrial sites.

In Operation Texas, several battalions of Leathernecks, moving in with air and artillery support, stabbed at long-held Viet Cong territory near Quang Ngai City, 330 miles northeast of Saigon. They reported killing 46 Reds In ground action and per haps many more in Marine jet strikes on enemy positions. The Marines faced a Communist force believed to be of battalion size.

Two other Marine battalions launched Operation Oregon against a Viet Cong company 15 miles northwest of the old imperial capital of Hue. Fighting was reported heavy throughout Monday morning, then it dwindled. A Marine spokesman said ground assaults killed 14 Viet Cong, artillery fire another 13 and air strikes seven.

In the third case, the court reversed, 6 to 3, a decision by the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts banning "Fanny Hill," the stpry of an 18th century London prostitute. Prurient Appeal But even here, Brennan said for the majority, "evidence that the book was commercially exploited for the sake of prurient appeal might justify the conclusion that the book was utterly without redeeming social importance." Fourteen separate opinions were filed by the nine justices. Three, Hugo L. Black, William O. Douglas and Potter Stewart, called separately for reversal of the Ginzburg and Mishkin convictions.

Lockridge said there is no evidence of foul play. He emphasized the bulletin meant only police are attempting to locate the woman. Detective Lockridge said the parents of Pearson, a divorcee, were concerned and came to Missoula. They are from Portland, Ore.

Karlberg protested the annex ation of about five acres of land which includes the location of the Blair building on the city's southwest limits near U.S.

93 South. But City Atty. Fred Root said his opinion is that the protests were insufficient. One protest concerned the fact that the land is used for transportation pur poses, a factor which under some circumstances would in validate annexation. Other protests voiced by Karl berg were that the land was not now platted, although it once had been, and that the city had no good reason to annex the property.
