Park Country Club. But officials are un-
knowing how the potato salad became con-
tained.

"We have hopes that with some lab results that the pieces of the puzzle will fall into place," he said. "We have not implicated any commercial food as responsibility for the
outbreak, but we have not ruled out that possibility."
The latest poisoning victim, Albertina Cabinness of Clovis, was admitted to the hospital after a seizure.
what Mann described as a moderate case of botism.
Fifteen others were listed in serious condition at hospitals in Texas and New York.
