"Hey Brownie! The Bow-Meow Dinner/Dance and Raffle was a sellout
event! Lots of lives will be saved because of it." The first place
$10,000 was Camille Mascrens of gallup, the second place $500 winner was
Edward Becenti and Anderson Brown, both of Gallup and the third place
of $250 went to Richard Padilla. These cute little critters are up for
adoption at the Humane Society on North Highway 491. Call 863-2626 for

Lindsay Mapes, the secretary/treasurer of the Gallup Alcohol Action Team,
puts a door hanger on a home near Helena Drive early Sunday morning. The
group distributed nearly 3,000 door hangers in Gallup over the weekend
in an effort to rally votes for the no-alcohol-sales-before-noon referendum.
Mapes and others in the group have been the targets of harassing phone
calls because of their roles in the organization. [Photo by Matt Hinshaw/Independent]
