Bread-Bakers v105.n035.16

In bread-bakers.v105.n034, Popthebaker@aol.com mentioned the classic 
baguette is made from pain ordinaire, a lean indirect dough.

Can anyone provide a recipe for pain ordinaire and the type flour a 
baguette is made? I haven't tasted a decent baguette since I left 
France in 1957. I've attempted to make them but without much success.

There are no bakeries in my area that will even attempt to make them.

I would appreciate any help in this endeavor.
