Boone, FTC
reach accord
WASHINGTON (AP) - Singer Pat
Boone, in an action that may
discourage advertising that features
show business personalities, agreed

preparation, will not cure acne as
claimed in the television and magazine
advertisements featuring Boone and
his daughter, Debbie Boone, also a
popular singer.

is ordered by the commission or a court
