Salisbury Blvd. DRUGS' CALL 749-8401 Pascal Asks Extension Of Marina Ban ANNAPOLIS (AP) A 90-day extension of the temporary ban on marina construction in Anne has been requested Countert A. Pascal, county executive.

The extension by the County Council is needed to give more time to a study group drafting legislation on marina development controls, he said. That legiskation would put controls on marina development in the county's creeks and coves. The 11-month moratorium, adopted last April by the County Council, will expire March 17 unless the extension is approved. It was inspired by a proposal to build a 937-foot marina on a former beach club tract on the Magothy River. Kennth A.

Patrick, developer of the planned marina, ran into obstacles that kept him from reaching the county permit stage. In addition, community opposition to the plan has held up a permit Patrick needs from the Army Corps of Engineers. Another proposed marina, on Bodkin Point near the mouth of the Patapsco River, also met strong community opposition. William C.Edmonston, study group chairman, said the organization expects to present its poropsed legislation by March 15.

Schumaker, Salis. 742-5141 New Boom Salisbury, Feb. 4, 1979 THE SUNDAY TIMES Boom Develops In Market Mutuals Money By CHET CURRIER AP Business Writer NEW YORK (AP) The same intense concern over interest-rate trends that has dominated stock-market investors' thinking of late has helped a new boom in money-market mutual funds. These funds, which invest in short term interest bearing securities such Treasury bills and bank certificates of deposit, have attracted record inflows of money in recent weeks. Many of them made their ap pearance during the 1973-74 surge in interest rates, as investors became aware that these investments had reached the point of yielding more than such traditional vehicles as savings accounts.

Donoghue's Money Fund Report, a Holliston, newsletter which developments in that segment of the mutual fund industry, reports that assets of the money funds were growing at a $600 millionaweek pace in mid-January, The previous record for a single week only half that, said the report's publisher, William E. Donoghue. Through the first 24 days of January, he said, the funds had a net inflow of $2.2 billion. Lynch Ready Assets, 'sponsored by the nation's largest brokerage house, has surpassed the $2 billion mark in net assets, making it one of the largest funds in the industry's history, For all of last year, according to the Investment Company Institute, the money funds as a group showed a net increase of $6 billion, bringing their total assets to a record $10.2 billion. Donoghue said the 64 funds he monitors opened 300,000 new accounts during the year.

The attraction, of course, is the current high level of yields offered by the funds from just under 9 percent to more than 10 percent in many cases. Should money, rates decline substantially, that attraction would presumably be reduced. Investors' hopes for an impending downturn in rates seemed to BIG STAR FOODS 701 S. Salisbury Blvd. Salisbury.
