RALEIGH-Organiied labor, farm groups and the influential Christian Action League are expected to join forces by testifying in behalf of an expanded medical school at East Carolina University at legislative hearings scheduled for today, Wednesday and Thursday.
WUbur Hobby, head of the AFL-CIO in North Carolina was expected to voice organized labors sup^rt for an expanded program of medical education at East Carolina at a 12 noon new conference and later today at a Joint Appropriations Committee public hearing on the question.
John Sledge, assistant state director of the North Carolina Farm Bureau and officials of the North Carolina State Grange are expected to voice the support of those farm organizations for expanding the ECU medical school later this week.
Coy Privett, head of the Christian Action League is also expected to appear at the hearings to voice CAL support for the ECU program.
Jack Brock of Lillington, president of the North Carolina Association of County Commissioners is to testify.
Brock will voice the support of his association, which passed a resolution in support of increased medical services
in
at the groups meeting Raleigh last month.
The resolution approved by his organization, whose members include county officials from all 100 North Carolina counties, said in part that "the North Carolina Association of County Commissioners recognizes that North Carolina suffers from a lack of adequate numbers of providers of primary medical care and an inequity in distribution of such providers between urban and rural areas...
The resolution continued, The Association supports the increase in the numbers of physicians engaged in primary medical care, whether such increase occurs by expansion of existing medical education facilities and class size therein and-or the further development of the East Carolina University Medical School.
Others slated to speak in " favor of expanding the ECU program include Dr. William Hedrick of Raleigh and Dr. James Jones of Jacksonville, both past presidents of the North Carolina Academy of Family Practice; Dr. Lenox Baker, a professor of orthopedic surgery at Duke University Medical School and former secretary of the State Department of Human Resources; former Rocky Mount mayor John Minges;
and Dr. Ed Beddingfeld of Wilson.
Dr. Andrew Best, a former member of the University of North Carolina Board of Governors and currently a member of the Board of Trustees of ECU, as well as other Greenville physicians, are scheduled to appear at the hearings, as is Dr. Edwin Monroe, vice-chancellor for Health Affairs at ECU.
Others that possibly will testify in behalf of the ECU expansion include Howard Lee, mayor of Chapel Hill, and delegations from Dare County and from Snow Hill.
The joint Appropriations Committee public hearings were set earlier this month but were postponed when a group of legislators and representatives of the UNC Board of Governors met in an effort to come to some agreement over the expansion question.
The hearings were rescheduled for today, Wednesday and Thursday when the legislators and UNC board of representatives failed to reach a compromise.
Sen. Ralph Scott, co-chairman of the Joint appropriations group said the full committee will meet Friday to vote on the ECU proposal. Favorable action by the appropriations group vi^l send legislation regarding the ECU question to the House and Senate floors for debate and action.

By JERRY RAYNOR Reflector SUff Writer Hie U. S. Congress has taken action that slaves Title I funds for the Greenville City School by $98,517 while at the same time adding $129,779 to the Pitt Cmuity School Htle I funds.
At the Greenville City School Board meeting Monday night. Superintendent Glenn Cox ex{dained how the unexpected situation developed. Confess, in recent action passing a continuing resolution for funding
School

Mount
of Htle I Federal educational projects, changed basic guidelines in the middle of the school year.
Originally, 1973-74 Title I allocations were figured on distribution percentages to school systems based on 1970 census figures. In the new continuing resolution. Congress has acted to negate use of the current census figures and has gone back 14 years to 1960 census figures. This results in allocations based on 90 percent of funds received for the 1972-73 school year, wliich in turn were based on 1960 coisus figures.
When asked why Congress based the recoit resolution on obsolete data, Cox said the only reason he had been able to gather was that Congress had been faced with lawsuits from
some school systems and changed direction accordingly.
The new congressional ruling results in the allocation of $1,139,895 for 1973-74 in Htle I funds to the Pitt County School System for 11,500 students, an average of $99.10 for each student.
By contrast, the city school system, with 5,660 students and a Htle I allocation of $212,997, receives $37.63 per student. Figure-wise, that means each county student is allocated $61.47 more annually than each student in the city school system.
However, as Greenville City School Htle I Director Charles Dickens points out, the federal project is designed for economically deprived children so that factors other than student population alone enter
into the distribution of funds.
It is the concensus of members of the City School Board that if the situation could be accurately pinpointed, the result would show that the recent congressional action has created a disproportionate situation in the current allocation of fimds.
Cox, in response to a question about the possibility of the county school board recognizing this fact and acting voluntarily to turn over funds to the city school system, said I dont believe the County School Board could do this even if they wanted to, because of the mechanics of federal laws.
Cox added that because of revenue sharing programs and other federal programs. Congress had pulled back on Htle I and other federal aid
programs to schools.
In efforts to complete Title I programs already scheduled and underway during the current school year, Cox explained that a combination of Title I funds due and authorization to use $15,871 in ESAA (non-Title I funds)when combined, resulted in a deficit of $27,304 in funds to complete Title I projects between February 1 and June 30.
To make up this deficit, Cox presented a proposal to use $27,000 from local budget money ($12,000 from salary funds and $15,000 from non-salary funds).
This action the school board approved, stipulating approval with reluctance as the only choice available in not abandoning parts of the program in the middle of the school year.
Courts Commission since 1967 and been a member of the Legislative Services Commissionwhich oversees the operation of the state legislaturesince 1971.
The high cost of living especially utilities, continues to plague the Greenville City Schools. At the February school board meeting Monday night, after being informed the Htle I program had lost nearly $100,000, Supt. Glenn Cox informed board members that a heavy deficit was building up in utilities costs.
When the 1973-74 budget was approved, $31,000 was the figure allocated for local funding of utilities, based on an actual $30,761 paid last year.
With the rising cost of utilities, however, the utilities bill for the schools paid through January already amounts to $38,607.65, or $7,607.65 above the amount budgeted for the entire school year.
Cox told school board members that a request for an additional $35,000 in utilities budget had been submitted to the County Commisssioners. To date, Cox said, commissioners have not made a decision, but have informed Cox they have the request imder advisement.
One of the problems, Cox pointed out, is the new utilities system of billing on peak demand. For example, Cox said, at Aycock the surge of power might all come at one time. This is the peak demand, or what your system might call for a brief time, and^ is not necessarily what you use, but its what you pay for.
In other school board agenda items:
Mrs. Ann Harrison presented a PVAC Slide-Sound presentation and explained work underway in the Optional Program. The Optional
Program now has 15 students enrolled in morning classes and 15 in afternoon classes. Hiese are students between 16 and 18 who have been out of school for one or another reason. Under the Optional Program they are being given an opportunity to attend school on a half-day basis for credit. Also, approval was given to hiring Peter D. Greenspan to work in the program;
Set February 25, March 4 and March 11 as dates for the school board to meet to consider the 1974-75 curricula outline;

Plan Or No Plan; Gas Supply Is Main
Small
Issue
By CAROL B. TYER Reflector Staff Writer I think the Governors plan w(Hild really work wellif we had the gas, George Pugh of Pughs Tire and Service Center said. ^Maybe we can put it into effect next month.
Pugh explained that he oversold last month and has practically no gas to sell for the rest of this month. I dont know what Ill do from now to the end of February, but Ill follow the statewide plan next month if I can, he said.
Id go along with the Governor if I could, Douglas Edmondson of Dougs Spur Station on Dickinson Avenue here said, but I dont have but about 400 gallons a day to pump.
Report Rise In Borrowed Books
I just hate to serve 10 gallons to each car and not serve but 40 people in a day. So I feel like I have to keep on limiting my sales to $2 for the rest of this month. If I can next month. Ill go along. He said he will continue' to turn on his pumps in the middle of the day to maybe relieve some of the before- and after-work congestion at other stations.
Phillip Martin, manager of the Etna Station at the comer of the 264 Bypass and E. 14th Street, said he is enforcing the Governors plan as nearly as possible. He added that he thinks most people are cooperating very well and that lines were shorter today and yesterday then they have been before.
Weve been checking license plates, and Miiether each car is down to half-full as closely as
possible, he said. Weve gone to six days a week to accomodate the even-odd plan and thats cut us back to 1,700 gallons a day. Were keeping the $4 limit weve had for some time in order to serve more people. If we can, next month well start giving people 10 gallons.
Penneys Service Station will be open from 4 to 8 p.m. as in the past. Its supply is so limited that it will be open only four days a week, selling to odd numbers Mondays and Fridays and even numbers Tuesday and Hiur-sdays. These were the hours given out by the store swit-cliboard operator to customers.
Mr. and Mrs. John McCarthy of Johns Colonial on E. Tenth St. said they worked yesterday on large signs posting their hours and their new 10-gallon limit. They will follow the Governors
Plan to the letter, they said. Their hours will be from 7 to 9 a.m. and from 4 to 6 p.m. Hiis afternoon was the first time this week theyve had gas, however. Were not going to police our lot to find if people are even or odd, but were really hoping theyll abide by the plan to make it easier on everyone. Were also happy that Pitt County went along with the statewide plan in order to make it easier on traveling salesmen and other outsiders who buy from us, Mrs. McCarthy said.
I fell like by the end of this week people will have really gotten into the (Soveraors Plan well enough that a lot of the panic will be over and things will be easier for all of us, Phillip Martin said. Of course, theres still a lot less gas available than any of us can ever remember and all of us are going to have to cut back on use of it in every way we can.
PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) -The Multnomah County Library says a sharp increase in the numba* of book borrowers coincided with the onset of the gas shortage in Oregon.
Librarian James Burghardt said Monday that nearly 21,000 more books were loaned out during December 1973 than during Decembr/ 1972. And during January, about 4,500 more books were borrowed than in the same month in 1973, Burghardt said.
People are browsing for bo<^s at noon during their working days so they dont have to make a special trip back to town, he added.

Echeverra To Visit Cuba
MEXICO CITY, Mexico (AP) President Luis Echeverra will visit Cuba in the near future for the first visit by a Mexican chief executive since Fidel Castros revolution in 1959.

WASHINGTON (AP) -Emergency energy legislation is heading toward vin uncertain fate as Senate opponents are se^ng to recommit it once again to a conference with "the House.
Senate Interior Chairman Henry M. Jackson, D-Wash., floor manager of the bill, said Monday the recommittal vote expected to occur late this afternoon would be decided by a razor thin margin but declined to predict which way it would go.
If the vote to recommit fails, the bUl is expected to gain speedy passage and be sent to the House for final action. Jackson said last week that sending the bill back to conference almost certainly would kill it.
Hie measure that would give President Nixon power to order gasoline rationing and other mandatory fuel-saving steps has failed in two previous attempts to gain Senate passage. Opposition centers on a provision that would roll back the price of uncontrolled domestic crude oil from an average price of around $10 per barrel to $5.25. .
Jackson claims the rollback would save consumers $20 million a day while opponents claim it would force the oil companies to cut back on production, making current shortages worse. A few senators argue that the rollback is not enough.
In a press conference Monday, Jackson said the fight against the bill was being led from behind the scenes by the oil companies and the White House. Administration lobbyists acknowledge their opposition to the price rollback, along with certain other provisions.
The White House has worked to block the bills passage on two previous occasions once before Christmas when it backed a filibuster by Republicans and oil state senators and again last month when the President personally urged the Senate to send the bill back to conference to remove a provision designed to limit oil company profits.
The conferees substituted the equally controversial price rollback provision for the excess profits section. Federal Energy chief William E. Simon has labeled the rollback formula unworkable.
WASHINGTON (AP) Even the cost of red tape is up.
The cost of this years presidential budget document is up
40 per cent to $15.05.
This basic, 1,000-page paperback presidential opinion of how much Congress should appropriate for federal operations was $10.70 last year.
And the Government Printing Office says prices are generally up for agency and congressional reports, forms, studies, and the publishing of new laws and regulations.
The prices of many of the 24,-000 pamphlets and publications the office offers for public sale generally has risen by a nickel to several dollars.
Higher production costs is the reason for the increases, says the office, the sole, nonprofit federal publisher.

Alabamans Cheer Pres. Nixon
By HOYT HARWELL Associated Press Writer HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (AP)In 143 minutes in Huntsville, President Nixon met with state Re publican leaders, shared a platform with Gov. George C. Wal lace and told a primarily friendly crowd that the problems of today are problems of peace, not of war.
Nixon came to town Monday to keynote the second annual
Honor America Day celebration and was heard by an estimated 30,000-40,000 people in Big Spring Park.
We live in one of those periods in American history,* he said, where there is a trend toward pessimism and division.
That often occufs at the end of a war, Nixon said. For the first time in 12 years, this country is at peace with the world and our prisoners of war at
home where they belong.
One of these, Lt. Comm. Mike Christian, was an honored guest of the Sertoma Club that sponsored the celebration.
Wallace arrived at the Redstone Arsenal airstrip 30 minutes before Nixon and waited in his airplane until just before the Presidential plane, the Spirit of 76, landed.
Wallace, in his wheelchair, greeted Nixon with a gift-

years while the youngest child. Jay, 4, has had several serious bouts with ordinarily simple illnesses.
The trouble began on a spring day in 1969 as Mark, Tina, 15, and Brett, 11, were going home from school.
The children waved at the crop-dusting plane as it made three or four passes overhead.
Their clothing was still damp from the spray when they got home and then Tina picked up Jay, about 2 months old, Henderson recalled.
All four children became ill within 48 hours, but Mark and Jay were the sickest. Tina and Brett recovered quickly and now apparently have sturdy immunity systems, Henderson said.
Mark had to be hospitalized right away and the headaches and fever lasted several days, Henderson said.
Jay and Mark have continued to have problems.
Mark has been in Childrens Memorial Hospital in Oklahoma City twice, once for a deteriorated ear drum which was suc

Now, Mark has been in a Chickasha hospital for over two weeks and Henderson said the doctors told him he will have to remain there awhile to try to find the right drug to solve his problem.
Henderson said he was telling the familys story in hopes that others might realize the dangers involved with insecticides.
Were at a point where expense means nothing compared with getting him well, Henderson said of Mark.
Henderson said responsibility for the incident was never pinpointed. Its been too long and its too late to do anything now, he said.
I dont know what the cost of medical and doctors bills have been, he said. No one has been pressing us and as long as my hay-hauling business and the trucks hold out, well find a way to pay even if it takes five years.
and we dont mind admitting it.
The governor told Nixon: I say God bless you, and I submit to you that you are among friends here.
Nixon in turn praised Wallaces will to live after he was hit by bullets while campaigning in 1972.

NEW YORK (AP) The curtain was set to rise today on a courtroom drama unparalleled in the last half century of American history, the federal criminal trial of two former members of the Presidents cabinet. Tiey are accused of obstructing justice.
John N. Mitchell, 60, attorney general during President Nixons first term, and Maurice H. Stans, 65, former commerce secretary, were summoned to appear before Federal judge Lee Gagliardi in downtown Foley Square. Eight hundred prospective jurors were to be on call.
Mitchell and Stans are charged with accepting a $200,-000 under-the-table contribution to Nixons 1972 re-election campaign from fugitive financier Robert Vesco, 37. In return, the government claimed, they pledged to exert their influence in sidetracking a Securities and Exchange Commission probe of Vescos multimillion dollar corporate empire.

Mitchell was in charge of Nixons re-election campaign, and Stans was his chief fund raiser on March 8, 1972, when the indictment charges that Vesco offered a $500,000 contribution in return for intercession with the SEC.
The government charged that eventually a sum of $200,900 was agreed upon and that this amount was secretly turned over to Stans in Washington on April 10, 1972. A new law requiring public disclosure of campaign contributions had taken effect three days earlier.
The indictment claims that Mitchell and Stans subsequently brought pressure on the SEC in Vescos behalf. The case was said to have been brought up in a discussion between Nixon and his former White House counsel John W. Dean III. However, there has been no public indication that Nixon was aware of the purported conspiracy between Mitchell, Stans and Vesco.
Mitchell and Stans are additionally charged with six counts of perjury, bringing their maximum sentences upon conviction to 50 years.

WASHINGTON, N.C.-W.R. Roberson Jr., president of WITN-TV here and a member of the North Carolina House of Representatives, voiced suiq;)ort for a d^ree-granting medical school at East Carolina University in an editorial commentary aired by his station yesterday.
AcconUng to Roberson, Back in 1946, when concern for the medical care needs of North Carolina prompted a drive to expand the fledgling medical school at tlie University of North Carolina, it too, was opposed by existing medical schools and by nearly two-thirds of the State Medical Society membership.
Roberson said thse supporting expansion at UNC cited the shortage of doctors in North Carolina.
Then too, as today, opponents cried, there is no^ evidence to support the conclusion that another medical school would add a single physician to those in the State. In 1946, the state ranked 45th in i^ysician population, ratio. Today, according' to Roberson,*28 years later, it is forty-third. . .
Roberson said, Today, there exists in North Carolina, and clearly, here in Eastern Carolina, a medical crisis, udiich can only become more acute. Noting that North Carolina contributed only 1.6 per cent of the nations first year medical students in 1973 not because North Carolinians did not want to enter medical school, but because the opportunities admission are so limited.
for
Roberson emphasized the need for expanded medical training facilities.
TTiere is no doubt that there is a medical void now, both in training and services. It is time the General Assembly dealt with facts and accepted its repon-sibility to provide adequate medical care for all of its citizens; not basing its determination on emotion and cries of preserve the University System.
The issue, Roberson said, is clear and the elected representatives of our great State of North Carolina must face the issue. . .
History will name those who meet this issue with courage and conviction as leaders in providing adequately for the medical needs in North Carolina and in the South.

Anna Thompson Dancer Warned Will Serve To Leave Soviet As Pagette
MOSCOW (AP) Ballet dancer Valery Panov has been warned to leave the Soviet Union immediately or face tough administrative measures, Mrs. Galina Pknov said.
But the former star character dancer with Leningrads Kirov Ballet has repeated his refusal to abandon her, Panovs wife added Monday.

The Soviet officials did not spell out what kind of measures they had in mind, she said.
Panov, a Jew, was fired from the Kirov troupe nearly two years ago when he informed the directors he wanted to emigrate. He has been deprived of work and the opportunity to dance since his dismissal.

Paris Goes Wild Over Styles Of The 1930s
By ALINE M08BY PARIS (UPI) - Parte has put on marcel-waved hair and tango records and gone 19%.
Almost out of sight are flie puffed shoulders and platform soles of the World War II styles' that seized girls in the fashion capital for two years.
The mood in Paris now is very i93(Msh, from ivory cigarette holders to furniture, paintings, ashtrays and clothes of"40 years ago.
The latest trip to the 1930s is the new restaurant Regine, opened by that husky-voiced singer and night club imix^e-.
sario alw is one of Frances most popular show business fixtures.
Regines new restaurant-dtecotheque off the Champs Elysees transporta diners and dancers back to the 30s lacquered walls, mirrors gleaming on ttie ceilings, palm trees, winecolored velvet chairs, a^trays and paintings of the art deco geometric designs, an orchestra wailing foxtrots and tangos.
Wigs and Monocles
For the opening night the tout Paris (all Paris, or everybodv who is anybody)
crowd turned up in the 30s styles right up to marcelled waves and platinum blonde Jean Harlow wigs on the women and oil-plastered hair and monocles on the men.
Princesse (teroline of Monaco, daughter of Princess Grace (Kelly) and Prince Rainier, making her debut in Paris cafe society, looked like Deanne Durbin with her curled hair parted in the middle and a gold lame bow bobbing on one side.
Mrs. Bernard Lanvin, wife of the director of the Lanvin high fashion salon, ^owed up in 1931 pink Lanvin dress dripping
with roses. Regincr wore a gown by Poiret, the first Paris designer of the modem era.
Regine said she collected furnishings for the restaurant from the antique shops tht have sprouted around Paris specializing in angular armchairs, lamps, Lalique crystal and other decor of the 30s.
Harlow and Art-Deco
The 1974 spirit in Paris wallows in nostalgia for the epoch of Jean Harlow, rumble seats and saddle shoes. Boutique windows sparkle >with lame wrap-round blouses, velv
et bias-cut midiskirts and, T-strap sandals.
Some girls wear badges imprinted with photographi of 1935 film stars. Also in ^ ivory, crystal or amber nrk-laces.

DEAR ABBY: I am a widow woman planning a tour with a friend. Ill be sharing a room with her which will create a problem because I snore. I know I snore loudly because those who have heard me say it is most annoying.
Im told I sleep with my mouth open, so that must be the reason. My friend doesnt know about my snoring, and I hesitate to tell her before attempting to remedy it. Any suggestions? SNORING PROBLEM
DEAR PROBLEM: First see a nose and throat doctor. Often a minor surgical correction will solve the snoring problem. Some have solved the open-moutii Ht>blem by applying adhesive tape over the mouth, or using a chin strap. If all else fails, buy your roommate some ear plugs.
DEAR ABBY: I am 16, and my problem is my oversexed brother in law. I babysit for their 2-year-old child. My sister would wring his neck if she knew how fresh he gets with me and every other female who comes within 2 feet of him. [Hes even propositioned my motherat^ shes 60!]
My sister and this lecher are building a imw home now and he tells everybody that he and my sister and their little daughter bathe together! My sis is seven months pregnmit now, and this over-sexed dude says he is looking for a kingsized bathtub so they can ALL bathe together after the new baby comes. He says there is nothing wrong with nudity or sex, and anyone who says there is is evil-minded.
Tell me, Abby, is he nuts, or am I evil-minded?
SISSIE
DEAR SISSIE: There is nothing wrong with nudity or sex under the proper circumstances, but any man whod proposition his mother in law IS nuts.
DEIAR ABBY: Regarding your item concerning the women who are interested in obtaining false fannies: I would like to make a contribution. BABE IN OMAHA

By CECILY BROWNSTONE Associated Press Food Editor Biscuit mix was first introduced in 1931 and co<rfis have been using it merrily ever since. An innovative way to use the mix came to our attention recently and when we served the result at a Sunday brunch our tasters applauded it. Crunchy walnuts give delicious flavor and texture to the raisin-honey filling around which the tender biscuit dough is wrapped.

With a fork stir together the biscuit mix and water until a dough forms it should be moderately stiff. Turn out on a floured pastry cloth; with a floured stockinet-covered rolling pin, roll out to a 12 by 9 inch rectangle. C!ut in 3-inch squares. Stir together the walnuts, raisins and honey; place 1 tablespoon (about) of the mixture over center of each square of dough; fold points together to enclose filling and with your palms, shape each into a ball. Brush with melted butter (there will be some leftover) and place about an inch apart on a cookie sheet. Bake in a preheated 400-degree oven until lightly browned 12 to 14 minutes. Meanwhile, stir together the sugar and cinnamon. At once brush each bun with the remaining melted butter and roll in the sugar-cinnamon mixture. Serve hot. Makes 12.

York and married him six ^ peoirfe due to business, months later, she moved to London.
Today Mrs. Dent-Brocklehurst, 32, is the only American and only woman in what the English call the stately home business. Her home,
Sudeley Castle, begins its fourth tourist season this summer. She directs the business alone, since her husband died in 1972.
The young mother of two children presides over an 87-room castle which dates parUy from the 12th century and is not only home but historical monument.
When we were first married, my husband was a stockbroker in London and his mother lived at Sudeley. She opened the house to guests, but in a very casual manner. She decided five years ago to turn it over to us, and we thought wed make a go of operating a stately home.
It wasnt easy at first because I started staying four days a week in the country and three days in London to prepare the house to receive visitors in a big way. We had to create facilities for visitors such as restaurants, parking lots and gift shops, as well as organize the exhibitions, Mrs.
I even judge dog shows, she added.
Mrs. Dent-Brocklehurst studied art and fashion in college, as well as interior design.
When I first lived in London, I had a fashion business so it came in very useful. Fashion remains a big interest of mine and when Im in London I still work with a designer, she said.
For the future, she hopes to build a separate exhibiton building at Sudeley for theatrical productions and concerts. Then, says Mrs, Dent-Brocklehurst, Well be able to do larger exhibits than we are now able to do.
BPW Observes Anniversary At Banquet
The Greenville Business and Professional Womens Club celebrated its 36th anniversary Thursday evening at the Ramada Inn with a Valentine banquet.

I am really concerned about my son. Hes never been a talker but hes beginning to sound like the people on television commercials who talk in bulletins.

Last week, my son set a record. He spt^e a total of 12 words. . .three of them to me. (After I nearly severed my finger, with a serrated bread knife he mumbled, Right on. Mom.)
When he comes home from school, I feel like Ironside interrogating a suspect.

Hes no Buckley, shrugged his father.
Are you kidding? I tried lying in the middle of the floor when he came home from school one afternoon just to see if the sight of my lying there unconscious would generate conversation.

terview here.
Sudeley was the home of Queen Katherine Parr, last wife of Henry VIII, and her tomb may be seen in the castle chapel.
There are many marvelous things about Sudeley, but at the beginning there was very little a visitor could actually see. We carved the exhibition area out of the walls and developed an indoor sound and light drama for the 20-room tour. Portraits, mementos and so on that were already in the collection had to be exhibited properly, she added.
Among items in the collection are Queen Elizabeth Is christening gown and Queen Marie Antoinettes tapestry bed-hang-ings, as well as a prayer book that belonged to (^ueen Katherine Parr.
Located in the Cotswolds approximately 20 miles from Stratford-on-Avon, Sudeley traces its history back to King Ethelred II.
The estate itself is about 2,-000 acres, all let off in farmland, Mrs. Dent-Brocklehurst said. In the operating season we have about 65 people working at Sudeley, but two-thirds are temporary staff.
The castle garden is open to visitors, as is an ornamental aviary her husband constructed for birds he collected.
We have a childrens play park and small childrens zoo with lambs, piglets and rabbits. My own children Henry, 7, and Mollie, 5, take a great interest in the zoo because they get to tame the animate, she added.

Following the welcome, Miss Smith announced that one of the local members, Mrs. Naomi Edwards, has been elected to the board of directors of District IX.
Mary Daugherty introduced the speaker, Mrs. Williams, vdio spoke on facts and objectives of National Federation of BPW aubs. She stated that the BPW Federation is the largest organization of working women in the United States and has a membership of 155,000, adding that there are 80 clubs in North Carolina.
Mrs. Williams brought out that the National Federation is working for the ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment, which amendment coincides with one of the Federations main objectives, to elevate the standards of working women.

Women, Too, Published News In Colonial Days
POUGHKEEPSIE, N Y. (AP) Despite childbearing and heavy household chores, women became newspaper publishers in Colonial America, according to a Vassar College Library exhibit.
By 1820, at least 32 women had published American newspapers. Mrs. Clementina Rind published the Virginia Gazette in Williamsburg in 1773-74. With its slogan open to all parties but influenced by none, it is still published by the Williamsburg Restoration.
Soon after founding the Maryland Journal and the Baltimore Advertiser, William Goddard turned the publication over to his sister, Mary, an expert compositor. She printed the Declaration of Independence as a broadside and edited the paper through the Revolutionary War.
Benjamin Franklins sister-in-law and her son, James, published the Newport Mercury and Weekly Advertiser in 1762-63.
While John Peter Zenger, a freedom-of-the-press pioneer, was imprisoned in 1733 for criticizing an unpopular governor, his wife got out the paper. She later succeeded her husband as publisher of the New York Journal.

We are often pr<me to think of tuberculdsis as a disease of the past.
A recent news story and map in The Daily Reector tells us otherwise, however.
Tuberculosis is still a problem for Eastern North Carolina and there were 128 cases diagnosed in the 22-county Eastern Lung Association area.

Barry Blasts Jackson 'Myth'
By ROWLAND EVANS andROBERTNOVAK
WASHINGTONA blist
ering attack on Sen. Henry M. Jackson by his old friend Sen. Barry M. Goldwater stunned a blue-ribbon audience of top U.S. industrialists here last week who had invited the 1964 Republican presidential nominee to give them a closed-door political talk.
The Goldwater assault was not personal, but in strictly political terms it sought to lay bare what Goldwater called the myth of Jackson as a conservative Democrat close to big business.
Not at all, said the usually mild-mannered Goldwater: Scoop Jackson was parading in conservative-Democratric sheepskin, concealing the wolf of economic populism.
Playing on his virtual ostracism by the left wing of the Democratic party, Jackson has concealed the economic liberalism that makes other Liberal Democrats anathema to U.S. business, Godwater said.
But in fact, Goldwater went on. Jackson represents a profound threat to American business. He cited Jacksons sponsorship of the bill to place government and public members on boards of directors of major U.S. oil companies. That, he implied, could be the beginning of the end of the free enterprise system.
The next target, Goldwater said, will be steel. As prime architect of federalizing major American industries, Goldwater claimed, Jackson must be perceived as a skillful and dangerous antagonist. Moreover, with full political backing of the powerful American-Jewish community, said Goldwater, and his 100 per cent pro-labor voting record, Jackson looms today as the most potent presidential threat against the Republicans in 1976.
A Rhodes Misstep?
Rep. John Rhodes of Arizona, the new House Republican leader, may have caught his toe in a crack by blocking an ambitious freshman conservative. Rep. Robert Bauman of Maryland, from the Republican vacancy on the impeachment-potent House Judiciary Committee.
Bauman not only strongly bid for the job but had support from the pwerful California delegation in the Republican Committee on Committees, as well as many Republican freshmen.
A hard-line conservative, Bauman lost when Rhodes, supported by the Republican leadership, recruited Rep. Delbert L. Latta of Ohio, an experienced 16-year veteran of the House and persuaded him to take the hot seat
despite Lattas membership on the coveted House Rules Committee.
The decision not to give the seat to Bauman brought Rhodes face to face with his first intraparty battle since taking over from Vice President Gerald Ford. Thus, Bauman had some support in the executive committee, which recommends assignments to the much larger Committee on Committees. There he polled some 40-plus votes, a good minority showing. Both groups, chaired by Rhodes, usually operate unanimously.
Rhodes, whose leadership, popularity stems partly from his overt independence of White ^House pressure, has now disenchanted many freshman Republicans. To them the issue was not Baumans conservative ideology but their right to get a fair share of party power at a time of ballyhooed congressional reform.
Simon vs. Ash (cont.)
Energy czar William Simon instructed an aide to make certain that Irving R. Levine, NBCs interviewer when Simon appeared on the Today show last Wednesday, was fully aware of Simons anger at Roy Ash, head of the Office of Management and Budget, for forecasting a quick end of the energy crisis.
Simons intent: make
certain that Levine (a seasoned reporter who needed no such hints) would bring up Ashs prediction the next morning and ask Simons reaction. Simons reply (a verbatim replay of the reply Secretary of the Treasury George Shultz gave to former White House aide Melvin R. Laird last fall when Laird called for a temporary tax hike was): Keep your cotton-pickin hands off the energy crisis.
In truth, Ashs forecast that the gasoline famine would end in a few months infuriated not only Simon but every energy expert in town. Unless the Arab oil boycott ended now and Saudi Arabia immediately tripled its present 6 million barrels a day production ratea political and engineering impossibilitythe shortage will last years, not months.
Why did Ash gush? Because, as an unblinking follower of the Chicago school of economics, he apparently is convinced that if prices keep rising, as they are now, the free enterprise system will find a way to lift the sui^ly. But politicians also say Ashs rosy forecast was designed to make President Nixon look gooda game that will backlash on the President when maddening gas station lines continue into the spring.

Lt. Cjow, Hunt Makes Point On Allocations
We are with Lt. Gov. Jim Hunt all the way in his contention that gas companies which have pulled out of North Cardina should not take their gas allocation with them.
He contends that five or six percent of North Carolinas supplies were lost because of this.
The companies can pull out if they want but the allocation should be made on the basis of the total usage for the state in previous years. The Federal Energy Office should see to this.

The governor makes $38,500, and the appointive or elected state department heads including Dr. Craig Phillips, superintendent of public instruction, are paid in the low to middle thirties.
Still Higher
But even with a salary higher than the governor, Jones is not the highest paid public official in the state. A number of employes of the University of North Carolina make more. Dr. William Friday, for example, head of the statewide system is paid $42,000 annually.
And some of his employes make more than that, with the salary scale for teaching physicians at Memorial Hospital connected with the medical school at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill receiving up to $43,800 per year.
Chancellors at the univeristy campuses are right around the $40,000 range, and also are provided housing, maid service, and a car.
A study of the list of superintendentss salaries in local school systems shows 10 who are paid more than $30,000 per year. The highest salaries result from hefty local supplements paid by local school boards over and above the state salary level.
Nine local superintendents are paid no local supplements. ^ Those are primarily in the less populated counties of Cherokee, Clay, Hertford, Mitchell, Polk, Robeson (town of Maxton), Tyrrell, Wayne, and Yancey.
The highest local supplement paid in the state is in Charlotte-Mecklenburg' where Jones receives $12,636 in local money. Four local units pay a supplement over $10,(XX) annually, including Shelby ($11,400); Durhamc^ City ($10,420); High Point ($10,140); and Charlotte.
Over $30,000
The 10 local school systems which pay salaries of $30,(K^ or up are Durham County ($30,000); Durham City ($30,700); High Point
($31,500); Winston-Salem, Forsyth ($33,696); Gaston ($30,136); Greensboro ($32,837); Guilford Chunty ($31,837); Charlotte-Mecklenburg ($39,000); Wake County ($32,072); and Raleigh ($30,580).
Almost making the elite list are Shelby ($29,952); Cumberland County ($29,408); Lee-Sanford ($28,000); Rocky Mount ($29,712) ; Chapel Hill ($28,632); Lumberton ($28,392); Union County ($28,064); and Burlington ($29,064).
The 10 lowest-paying school systems are, listed from the bottom up:
Clay County ($16,308); Yancey County ($16,824); Mitchell (hunty ($16,824); Tyrrell ($16,992); Polk ($17,856); Hyde ($18,162); Graham ($18,192); Cherokee ($18,192); Gates ($18,354); and Hertford ($18,552).
By comparison, principals salaries in North Carolina schools range from a low of $13,368 to a maximum of $19,224 depending on the number of teachers in the school
State salaries for teachers range from a low of $7,560 for a beginner with a bachelors degree to a high off $10,170 for a bachelors. A masters degree can push that up to $11,680, and a doctorate in the field of instruction can raise the salary to $12,680. Those figures do not include local supplements, and teachers are paid for a 10-month work year while principals and superintendents work 12 months.

To the editor:
Im writing in regards to the gas situation. I heard on tv last night that they were letting the race cars have 30 gallons of gas. To me, this is a waste. When people are sick and you have to take them to the doctor, you have to sit in line for an hour to get $2 worth of gas.
I dont think this is fair, and I do think something should be done about it.

THE SOURCE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS
It is of course a matter ot great importance that a Christian live a righteous life, but it is a mattr erf equal importance that his righteousness have a proper source.
The righteousness of some men pas its source inexpediency. It pays to be honest. Dissolute living, they reason, impairs their powers and should therefore be avoided. Fear keeps some peofrfe from doing things they know to be wrong. Still other
people are good because they have never had an opportunity to be anything else.
Of course, it is better to live a good life under these circumstances than to lead an evil one, but true righteousness begins with Jesus Christ. Paul said that after his conversion he secured a righteousness that was not his won, but was the ri^teousness of God throt^ Jesus Christ. A righteousness wdiidi begins in self will md in self. A righteousness which begins'in Christ will travel on to eternity.

Seven For Solzhenitsyn
The first stories last week of the arrest of Alexander Solzhenitsyn said that the Russian police sent seven men to pick him up. Seven men! If laughter can be found in this affair, let us find laughter here.
Seven men! The masters of the Kremlin might as well have sent a battalion, or two divisions, or a thousand armored cars. In making this arrest, the many would have been as helpless as the few.
How do you arrest an idea? How do you put truth in irons? They came too late for Solzhenitsyn. They should have seized him 50 years ago.

The story speaks at two levels of time and truth. 'The first has to do with the Soviet Union of this century. The second has to do with man past and man future.

A vast deal of nonsense has been written in recent years to the effect that the Communist revolution has matured, or come of age. Specialists in Kreminology have found
Other Editors Say Self-Supporting?
(Henderson Dispatch)
Beginning March 2, which is only two weeks hence, it will cost ten cents instead of eight cents to mail a letter. Its the highest rate in the nearly 200-year history of the nations mail service. Not only letters, but all other classes of mail will be handled at higher rates.
The U. S. Postal Service, successor to the traditional Post Office Department, claims it needs an additional $1.5 billion to put the service in the black in its operations. But the question we would like for some one to explain, and which goes unanswered, is why the postal body should be made self-supporting when no other department, agency, commission, or what not, has to pay its way. They are provided for in the colossal Federal budget. Why not the post office?
TTie department claims the extra money is needed to finance pay increases granted to personnel. We find no fault with salary schedules, but people in the post office should come under the same program as others, and should be compensated accordingly from the same source.
Originally, the Post Office Department was established as a service to the American people. Instead, it has become a business orgainzation which lacks sufficient business acumen to live within its income. In effect, increases soon to become (^rative might be termed a tax to produce revenue toward offsetting the red ink.
But the question goes unanswered as to why the postal service should be expected to pay its own way when no other department of government ,ck)es.
There have been hints that business may be lost as a result of the upcoming increases. It would not be surjH-ising, and might produce a more realistic ai^roach by those in authority. We can remember when a letter could be mailed for two cents and a postal care cost only one cent. But those days are gone forever. Other commodities and services also have increased through the years, but as to the mails the jump is about 5(X) percent from the so-called good old days.
cracks In the Iron Curtain. The cheery watchword is detente.
Yet nothing has changed, nothing at all. Communism is as fearful, as suspicious, as paranoid as it was in the bloody days of Stalin. The party cannot rule by reason; it can rule by force alone. In Hungary, in Czechoslovakia, in Poland, on Gorky Street last week, it is always the same: Dissent is equated with heresy, and public criticism with darkest treason. The Soviet Union has the mightiest army on earth, the greatest navy and the deadliest missies. And the Soviet Union is afraidafraid of a novelist, afraid of a mans ideas.
But the encouraging thingthe part of the story that lifts us upis that man endures. For 50 years the Communist masters have labored to put out the fires of human freedom. They have made the press an instrument of propaganda. They have herded their children into state nurseries. They have purged their libraries and monopolized the book stalls. They have jammed the air waves and stopped up the peoples ears. They have banned travel in the free world. They have corrupted law and perverted education.
Solzhenitsyn is fifty-five. He was reared in this darkness, punished by imprisonment, denied access to every tool that might sharpen his intellect. But the fires cannot be wholly extinguished. 'The spark never quite goes out. It is a lesson that tyrants learn in time: Something in the soul of stubborn man goes on.

MEXICO CI^, Mexico (AP) While United States motorist wait in lines for gasoline, their Mexican neighbors get all they want for the asking.
Mexico City officials issued dire warnings several months ago about possible gasoline rationing, but nothing has happened. And officials of PE-MEX, the state-operated fuel monopoly, dont expect to see it happen.
After 15 years of frozen prices, PEMEX recently raised prices for gasoline sold at its filling stations, the only stations allowed to operate in Mexico.
Low-grade octane gasoline went from about the equivalent of 26 cents a gallon to 45 cents.
PEMEX said the price increase would finance a 10-year exploration program within Mexican territory for new fuel deposits to cope with the current worldwide energy shortage. About $3 billion is ear-, marked for such activities for 1974-1976.
PEMEX' was given little chance of success when it was formed in 1938 after left-leaning President Lazardo Cardenas nationalized 14 U.S. and British petroleurn companies.
The Mexican government paid more than $130 million in compensation to the expropriated companies, making the last payment in 1962.
PEMEX is interested only in supplying Mexican consumers and exports little of its production.
It carries out every task from exploring for oil, refining it and shipping it in its own tankers.
It has 78,000 employes, assets of over $3 billion and supplies more than 90 per cent of domestic oil consumption.
It makes a slim profit every year. In 1971, for example, profits totalled about $1.4 million.

Many Families Had No Cushion
By JOHN CUNNIFF .
AP Business Analyst
NEW YORK (AP) The sharp rise in loan delinquency rates that began in Novemter and December comes as a disaiq)ointment but no surprise to those who have been analyzing the condition of household finances.
They knew that families had built up an unusual amount of debt in the past two or three years and that many ol them had no cushion at all to protect ttiem frcxn a nasty financial comedowa
In the latt^ part <rf 1973 numy families rapidly began reducing their d^t load, but figures released by the American Bankers Associatimi ABA show dearly that a god many of thn were overtaken by the economic slump.
The ABA said delinquences rose to 2.$3 per cent of the number of outstanding in
stalment loans on December 31, the highest in the 10 years the statistical series has been kept. Last October the rate was 2.12 per cent
Similar findings are revealed by other sources. Home mortagage delinquencies, for example, have b^un to rise slightly even though the rate remains in the vidnity of 1 per cent.
Ihe tipirff that {M'oblems might be devel<q)ing came during 1972 when lenders saw a sharp increase in the amount of instalment credit outstanding in relation to disposable personal income.
Historically, the percentage (rf debt to disposade income has been less than 1.5 per cent In the 1960s that^ ratio was exceeded only in 1965, when it reached l.K per cent
But the percentage rose to more than 2 per cent in 1972, and when 1973 figures are complete they probably will
show a rate of about 2.25 per cent.
At least one well known economic consultant Lionel D. Edie & Co., terms the increase alarming and maintains that the C(Midition is even worse when instalment credit and mortgage debt are added in.
New mortgage debt for the household sector of the economy has been rising at an annual rate of $40 billion during the past two years, Edie notes, compared to only $24 biUion in 1971.
While the over-all downturn in the economy, including layoffs, is blamed for the situation, it has been worsed by particular factors. The gasdine sh(xtage is clearly producing housdiold crises.
William Ford, chief economist for the bankers associ-^ ation, conunented:
The gasdine shortage has been particularly troublesone because it has triggered sharp declines in
the resale value d cars, particularly large ones, and recreational vehicles, which further compound the delinquency problem.
Automobile repbssessiois rose during November and December, a time when the ABA claims tlwy usually decline. It noted the biggest delinquency rate of any category was the 3.54 per cent for md>ile homes.
To some extent the situation might correct itself. Individuals react almost instinctively to econqmic conditions, reducing their spending if they can when they feel threatened by adverse conditions. At the same time, lenders become more selective.
But for those already committed to spending projects there is no recourse but to get the mon^ up. And the statistics sh<w that a good numy Americans are having trouble doing that.I t

The subcommittee investiga-'' tion, and an Associated Press inquiry, turned up some anomalies in the ways the boards pjractice.
The three women who make up the State Board of Cosmetic Art Examiners (hairdressers) are paid salaries of $8,277 for members and $8,913 for the chairman per year; in addition, their travel expenses are paid by the state.
According to their boards executive secretary, Catherine Munn, they meet every month for about three days. Their function is to administer the examinations for beauticians licenses and set board policy on the required schooling, etc.
The physicians and surgeons on the Board of Medical Examiners meet almost as often, according to their executive secretary, Bryant Paris. But they get paid $10 per day, or about $240 per year, for their time. The boards chairman. Dr. Bryant L. Galusha of Charlotte, gets an additional $1,000 per year. Travel expenses are paid by the state.-
Some of the boards have virtually no staff; others pay their full-time executive directors salaries ranging from $8,300 per year to more than $20,000 per year.
Exact figures on the boards are difficult to come by because there is no uniform auditing requirement. State Auditor Henry Bridges has a brown cardboard box with a hodgepodge of reports in his office. They tell varying amounts about salaries paid and to whom.
The boards also very widely in the case with which they permit newcomers to enter their profession.
Some, like accountants and engineers, fail more than half of the people who take their exams. Others, like barbers, pass nearly everyone who applies.
Other boards have different ways of limiting entry. The Board of Arhcitects, for example, requires that young people with college degrees in architecture serve apprenticeships of three to four years before they are even permitted to take the examination.

As for todays world, it has to be said that his act of martydom will not accomplish much. He has not loosened so much as one stone in the monolith. The Russian people will not be roused to counterrevolution. After a week or two, when the story drops out of the news, detente will continue as before. If Solzhenitsyn had been executed or imprisoned, the prospect might be different, but the Kremlin masters are brutal, not stupid. Exiles, even brilliant exiles, get to be tedious old men. Banishment was better.
Yet things will not be precisely as before. Within the Soviet Union, the story will be told, arid told again, of how the seven came for Solzhenitsyn; and under the snows of Russia the story will sleep like a single, indomitable seed.

With all the power they possess, it is not surprising that appointments to the various boards are often coveted, piu:-ticularly when they carry a salary.
Some professions, like physicians, elect all their boards members. Others nominate members for selection by the governor. Still others have their members picked by the governor.
Gov. Jhn Holshousers appointments secretary, Laney Funderburk, recalls that%bout 150 barbers lobbied for appolnt-mit to the Barber Examiners board when a vacancy came up several months ago.
Why khould they? It pays about $14,000 per year, their expenses are paid, (for traveling around the state to inspect barber shops) and they set their own schedules, Funderburk said.
Higher has prepared and introduced a series of bills he says will eliminate some of the most abnormal practices.
One would prohibit board members from being full-time paid employes of the board, except that one may be hired as executive secretary.
Another would limit apprenticeship terms to one year. Yet another would completely eliminate the Board of Hearing Aid Dealers and Fitters.
Hightower has also in
troduced a bill requiring boards to establish the passing grade on an exam before it is given. This would isrevent a board from adjusting the passing grade after the exam to insure that only a limited number of people could get licenses in any one year.
I dont know for sure that this has happened, but the possibility existed and this will take care of that, Hightower said.
Another bill would require that the state auditors office aduit the bodes of each board every year. Another would eliminate the grants made by two engineering boards to the N.C. Engineering Foundation at N.C. State University.

Those grants, permitted in the law establishing the boards, amounted to $85,000 last year. Hightowers bill would require the boards to lower their licensing fees by that amount.

Angered By FlunkingOut
By RANDOLPH E. SCHMID Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) .A young soldier has indicated his anger at flunking out of flight school may have prompted his erratic two-hour helicopter flight aroimd the nations capital ending in a hail of gunfire on the White House lawn.
Army Pfc. Robert Kenneth Preston is undergoing psychiatric examination at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in the wake of the chase early Sunday morning.
Preston, 20, was taken to the hospital Monday after civilian charges of unlawfully entering the White House grounds were dropped and he was turned over to military custody.
Asked at his court appearance what prompted the wild chase, Preston did not comment. But when reporters asked if it was because of an-'ger at having flunked out of flight school he responded could be.
Military officials said they were studying whether any charges would be placed against Preston for violations of military regulations.
The chase began shortly after midnight on Sunday when an Army UHlB Huey helicopter was stolen from Ft. Meade, Md., about 25 miles from Washington.
It ended two hours later when the chopper landed on the south lawn, about 100 yards from the White House, under shotgun fire from officers of the Executive Protective Service and pursued by a helicopter manned by Maryland State Police.
Preston was treated for superficial wounds.
President Nixon was in Key Biscayne, Fla., at the time and no members of his family were at home.
In the South, President Nguyen Van Thieu has reorganized his cabinet in the wake of a gambling scandal in Saigon and amid a desperate economic situation.
South Vietnam is virtually bri^e, surviving only by massive doses of aid from the United States government. Foreign exchange reserves have dropped to less than $125 million; $200 million is considered the critical point. Inflation is up more than 60 per c^t; the piaster has been devalued 19 per cent, and some items have increased in price 300 per cent.
The president was not happy about the performance of the cabinet, said one associate, and one main reason was the serious and dangerous situation of the Vietnamese economy at a time the people were losing faith and confidence in the cabinet. He had to try to salvage prestige.
He wants to convince the people in the street that he is

at least listening to public opinion. Thats why he gave orders to clean up the gambling in Saigon.
Nearly 600 gamblers were arrested, high^anking police commanders were fired and so was the minister of veterans affairs, who owned a house that was being used as a casino. The next day he called for the resignation of the cabinet.
Thieu is retaining about 75 per cent of his ministers, but he is eliminating some ministries and putting the rest into blocs to be headed by vice premiers. The new cabinet also reportedly includes some economic experts who studied in the United States.
In North Vietnam, the leaders of the Communist government have outlined a two-year economic plan for reconstruction and development which U.S. analysts see as a shift away from any major venture in South Vietnam in the near future.
Air address by Vice Premier Le Thanh Nghi to the National Assembly earlier this month underscored the economic struggle facing the North and the problem of corruption and waste, something not generally publicized in Hanoi.
VENICE, Calif. (AP) - Most towns would welcome them: the well-showered, well-paid middle class with their sports cars and their briiaved chil-dri.
But in Venice discovered by the Beatniks in the 50s, flower children in the 60s and inhabited by enclaves of blacks and Mexican-Americans old-time residents resent the coming of the middle class and the high cost of living that accompanies them.
Venice is Los Angeles bohemian slum by the sea. First built in 1904, it became part of the City of Los Angeles in 1925 and was patterned after the Italian city of palazzos and gondoliers.
But its fortunes declined in the 1930s and the poor moved into its ramshackle cottages, and its canals and bridges fell apart.
In the last several years modem apartment houses have been built along the entire beachfront, attracting well-heeled residents with sleek sports cars.
One black man says: When I first came to Venice, I lived in a place over by the canals that rented for $90 a month. Now it rents for $200. The cat who rented it could pay $350 if he wanted to. He just wants to live in Venice because he thinks its funky. Cats like him move in here and pay so much, theyve priced the poor people right outa sight.
One property owper complained at a Town Council meeting recently: Our community is in imminent peril of being wiped out by an anonymous band of speculators who see a bonanza on this strip of land.
Its a simple matter of supply and demand, says developer J. Allen Radford, whose 10-story apartment building looms over the 50-year-old cottages.
Theres only so much land near the water anything near it is going to keep increasing in value, he says. There are some poor people down there now, but they wont get to remain by the water. The property is too valuable. Theyll have to go.
Average property assess
ments went up 50 per cent last year, the city says. Tax bills went up as much as $1,000.
One newer resident, a young man living with an older woman, says: Venice is the only place where it costs a lot to live poor. Were paying $385 here by the beach. Its worth it. For example, we can live out of

GOP Watergate Fears See Basis In Michigan
By CARL P. LEUBSDORF AP Political Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) - The Democratic victory in the Michigan congressional district formerly represented by Vice President Gerald R. Ford has given striking substance to the fears of many Republicans that Watergate and President Nixon mean electoral disaster in November.
It deals a sharp, and perhaps fatal, blow to the persistent contention by GOP National Chairman George Bush that Watergate wont hurt Republicans who had nothing to do with it.
Victorious Democrat Richard VanderVeen had based his campaign against Republican Robert VanderLaan on the theme that Nixon should resign so that Ford could assume the presidency.
But few observers thought this would be sufficient to turn the solidly Republican district, which has elected only GOP congressmen since 1910, into the second straight Democratic victory of the six special congressional elections scheduled between now and June.
With the impeachment investigation of President Nixon gaining steam in the House Judiciary Committee, congressmen of both parties have been watching these special elections to see if President Nixons Watergate, economic and energy troubles will rub off on GOP candidates.
The first special election, in Pennsylvanias 12th district Feb. 5, produced a narrow Democratic victory in a merg-inally Democratic district formerly represented by a Republican. The margin was so close that both parties saw encouragement in the result.
However, the Democratic victory in Michigan is as clear-cut as it was unexpected.
Ford had won 61 per cent in his two most recent elections - and President Nixon amassed a similar margin in 1972. But in a turnout significantly smaller than those elections. Democrat VanderVeen polled more than 53 per cent of Mondays vote.
Unlike the Pennsylvania race, where organized labor, outside speakers and outside organizers were extremely ac
tive, the Michigan contest was fought largely by the candidates and their local supporters.
The only big name to take part was Ford himself. The vice president spoke in Grand Rapids 10 days ago and was the guest of honor at a welcome
home celebration in mid-January.
Meanwhile, more bad news may be looming for the Republicans in two weeks when a solidly GOP district in Cincinnati, Ohio, holds its special congressional contest in a race where Democrats felt their ' chances were better than in-Michigan.
$31,695 In Grants Cited
A total of $31,695 in grants from government agencies and private corporations was received by East Carolina University during January.
The largest grant, given by the Eastern North Carolina Association for the N. C. Regional Medical Program, was a Health Manpower Develop
ment grant to the ECU School of Allied Health and Social Professions.
The grant amounted to $23,470.
The ECU Department of Chemistry and the ECU School of Businexs each received $2,500 from the E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Co. under the du Pont companys 1974 support program for university level business, science and engineering education.
Other grants to ECU included an award of $2,500 to Dr. Lynis Dohm of the ECU School of Medicine for his heart research and Dr. D. D. Gross of the ECU Department of Philosophy for an African-Asian Institute.

By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
For The Citadels Bulldogs, the magic number was six.
The Bulldogs not only snapped a six-game losing streak but nailed down the No. 6 spot in the Southern Conference basketball championship tournament with a 65-47 romp Monday night over Virginia Militarys Keydets.
But the Bulldogs will have to wait until later this week to see whether their third-seeded opponent will be Richmonds Spiders, Davidsons Wildcats or East Carolinas Pirates.
By winning, The Citadel upped its league record to 4-8 with one game remaining and dropped the Keydets to 3-9 in their final conference encounter.
Even a triumph in their final game cant pu^ the Bulldogs any higher, for William and
points for the Spiders. Eartha Furst scored 31 points and sophomore Warren Baker for West Virginia, which fell to 9-12.
Freshman Billy Langloh scored 15 of his 19 points in the second half as Virginia, 8-13, rallied from a 31-30 deficit at intermission to send William and Mary to its 14th defeat in 22 starts.
Bob McKeags layup gave Virginia the lead for good early in the second half, and the Cav
aliers made it stand up even though they played without Wally Walker, who has an ankle injury. Gus Gerard had 13 points for Virginia, Mike Ari-zin 18 for the Indians.
I hope this doesnt take any of the luster off the great team feeling we have right now, said WUliam and Marys George Balanis, who suffered his first defeat in three starts since taking over last week from Ed Ashnault.

William and Mary went outside the league Monday night and took a 72-62 licking from Virginias Cavaliers of the Atlantic Coast Conference, but Richmonds Spiders evened the nonleague record with an 84-83 squeeze past West Virginias Mountaineers.
All conference teams are idle tonight.
A pair of freshmen were the standouts, Rodney McKeever scoring 22 points for The Citadel and John Krovic getting 22 for VMl, but The Citadel was in command most of the way.
The Bulldogs, upping their over-all record to 10-11 and dropping the Keydets to 6-16, built a 57-31 margin with 5:18 left, but Krovic got 10 of his points in the last four minutes as the Keydets closed the gap a little.
VMl shot only 31.7 per cent from the floor to 48.8 per cent for The Citadel and committed 30 turnovers to 17 for the Bulldogs.
Carlton Macks layup with 34 seconds left snapped an 81-81 tie for Richmond, and Eric Grays free throw a few seconds later offset a West Virginia field goal at the buzzer.
The Spiders built a nine-point lead with 12:08 left, but West Virginia rallied for a final 77-75 lead before Aron Stewart, Bob McCurdy and Mack scored six straight points for the Spiders, now 12-11 over-all.

The Pant-HERS had little trouble with their foe, moving easily into the semi-finals of the tournament. They will meet the winner of the East Duplin-Princeton game on Wednesday at 8:30 p.m.
In the other game. Eastern Wayne advanced with a win over Clement. Theyll meet the survivor of the Charles B. Aycock-South Lenoir game on Wednesday at 7 p.m. The finals will be held Friday at 7:30 p.m. with the winner moving on to the
state tournament in High Point next week.
North Pitt jumped out early, streaking to an 11-4 lead after one period. The Pant-HERS increased their scoring by two points in the second frame, and held Union to the same score, four. 'That made it 24-8 at the half.
Union got on track in the third period, pushing through 12 points, but they still couldnt halt the Big Orange Machine, which ground out 14 points for a 38-20 lead. North Pit^ then finished them off with a 12-8 final period to win handily.

Pitt, which finished second in the league will now meet regular season champion James Sprunt. Pitt will host the game, to be played Wednesday at Win-tervilles A. G. Cox Gym.
The Paladins opened up an 8-4 lead in the early minutes of the game and extended that to six, 14-8, before Martin Tech put on a rally and finally tied it up at 20-20. Martin then took a 22-20 lead with about four minutes left. The two then exchanged baskets until the horn, with the half ending in a 27-27 deadlock.
Pitt inched back into the lead, taking a three^int edge, but Martin came back again to tie it
but Pitt regained the lead for good at 51-48. For the final six minutes of the game, the Paladins played control ball, working to burn off the clock and get the good shots. They extended their lead out to six and held that margin at the end.
Robert Hardy led Pitt Tech with 17 points, while Danny Thomas had 15 and Charles Jenkins had 13. K. Wallace led Martin with 13, while E. Briley had 12 and D. Moore had 10.
only by beating the Spiders and then winning on Saturday when they host sixth-place Citadel.
Even then, the outcome would hinge on the outcome of the Spiker-Indian game.
East Carolina lost its chance to have a shot at second place Saturday night when it lost to Davidson College. The Wildcats, with only a date with Appalachian State left, seem assured of second unless Richmond sweeps both of its final games.
Our defense, both individually and as a team, was not as effective as it has been lately, Coach Tom Quinn said of the game. But our offense did pretty good. We scored nearly 15 points over Davidsons defensive average, and 10 better than our offensive average. And our field goal percentage was over our average too. I cant fault the offense.
Quinn said that the defense, along with the offensive rebounding, which he called nil was the difference in the game. Tom Marsh, Reggie Lee and Larry Hunt all had out
standing games, he added.
The real difference could have been the fact that they were at home, they were having their last home game of the year, they were honoring their seniors, and they wanted revenge for the licking we gave them here. And perhaps, too, they have quality, experienced depth where we have quality, inexperienced depth.
Quinn noted that Nicky White, with only one rebound, Roger Atkinson and Donnie 0\^ens didnt have their usual nights against Davidson. Im sure they are going to snap back right away. Everyone has bad nights, he said.
Quinn feels that the Pirates really should be given part of the credit for the comeback Davidson has had. They were riding high at the start of the season. They had played 20 games already in Australia, and had a great advantage over the rest of us. And I think maybe they were overconfident. We knocked the wind out of their sails, and got them thinking. They lost two more in the con-

By BOB CULLEN Associated Press Writer RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) After many weeks of trying harder. North Carolina State basketball Coach Norm Sloan finds it nice to be the No. 1 team of college basketball.
Sloans team was top-ranked in the Associated Press poll this week, ending a long run as number two behind perennial champion UCLA. The Bruins dropped two games over the weekend and fell to third.
N.C. State, with a 20-1 record, edged Notre Dame by a slim margin for the top spot.
Despite its new status, Sloan said his team will still try harder.
I think it will help us. It comes at a good time to give a boost to our morale. The teams well be playing from now on are all Atlantic Coast Conference teams, and they couldnt be gunning for us any more than they are already. Well have a little more pride.
Sloan was informed of the poll results at practice Monday afternoon. Is that right? he asked. Told it was, he said, Were proud and pleased. Sloan stopped practice briefly to inform his players. Their reaction was restrained.
Its not that were not enthused, said 7-foot-4 center Tom Burleson. Its just that weve got a lot of things on our minds, including a home game with Duke Wednesday night.
Sloan said the sports writers who picked the Wolfpack had a good case.
Were a vastly improved ball club from December (when UCTA beat N.C. State by 18 points in St. Louis). Our two new starters of this season have come a long way.
Morris Rivers (a junior college transfer at guard) is playing beautifully now and Tim Stoddard at the big forward position is getting over a slow start.
Defensively, were coming together much better, particularly with our press. Weve beaten two of the top five teams (Maryland and North Carolina) on their home courts; we beat Purdue on its home court when it was leading the Big Ten.
Though the poll recognition is nice, Sloan said, its not the goal the team is seeking. Pursuit of the real goal starts next month with the ACC tournament, which N.C. State must win to enter the NCAA tournament.
We want to be No. 1 in March, Sloan said.

ference, and that really got them going good.
But Quinn looks forward to the conference tournament, where the Bucs have a good chance to meet them again. But I cant see where they can improve any between now and then. I do see some areas where we can improve.
Richmond, which beat the Pirates by one point with four seconds left in their meeting earlier in the season, will be out to do it again Wednesday night.
We played well against them, and we are better now. Of course, theyve improved too, Quinn said. -'They have three quality players in the front line in Aron Stewart, Steve McCurdy and Eric Gray. Its as fine a front line as there is in the conference.
But we played well enough to win there, and only some great breaks and an unbelievable freak kind of finish let them win it, the coach said.
Quinn feels that the loss to Davidson will make the Pirates a better team. We learned a lot from that game, he said. These next two games are very important to us, especially since both of these teams beat us on the road.
Stewart is the leading scorer for the Spiders, as well as being tops in the league. Hes hitting at a 26.3 average. Gray is hitting 17.3, while McCurdy has a 15.8 average.
Nicky White, continues to lead the Pirates with a 13.8 average, while Lee is scoring 11.5 per game. Atkinson is 9.1, Robert Geter, 8.8, and Owens, 7.6.

The Worry Clinic
Producers, Not Brointrusters
Tlie
Prof. Smileys students include a barber who commutes from a Village of 900 peojde. Note this deft use of Applied Psychology. We need far more people who are resourcesful producers, instead of braintrusters. Thats doubly true of Congress and istate legislatures!
ByGEORGE W. CRANE Ph.D., M. D.
CASE Z-556: Robert Smiley teaches Marketing at Purdue University.
Recently, he stopped for a visit when I was down in Indiana at the newspaper syndicate office.
Dr. Crane," he said, one of mj> students is a barber from a little town of 900 pofNilation.
He is a good Applied Psychologist, too, for he has set up a goal of $350 per wepk for his village barber shop.
And last week he hit $370.
For he is unusually alert and ambitious. He thus stresses hair styling for the older men of the community.
Since the custom of long hair for the male sex has been in vogue, he offers a free hair styling job to key men just so they can publicize his tonsorial artistry.
Then, as they are asked where they got the attractive hairdo, they mention this barbers name.
Dr. Crane, dont you think he typifies the type of man who would be a success in almost any field?
Think Ahead
Yes, I certainly appreciate this barbers ambition and practical psychology.
You must first think ahead," runs a superb adage, if you wish to get ahead."
That is similar to another business maxium which states:
Plan your work; then work ;your plan!
And I also salute Robert Smiley for his own demonstration of those axioms for success.
For he has had a versatile experience in our American Free Enterprise system, having worked in advertising and also been a radio announcer.
With his keen mind and business insights derived from his university teaching in the field of Marketing, he might very profitably end in the UJS. Congress.
For we certainly need versatile men as candidates of both the major political parties.
And by versatile, I refer to men who not only know how to motivate voters so they can win elections.
But also candidates with Horse Sense, who realize that government is really the major business of America and sh(nild be conducted efficiently, without boon-doggling and waste of our taxes.
Perhaps we have far too many lawyers in our state and national legislatures.
Instead, we need more farmers, barbers, retail merchants, doctors and others who
really are out creating new products and trying to mr-chandise them at a profit.
Our Watergate bunglers wore chiefly lawyers!
And those who have complicated American business by braintruster laws about pollution oi water, air and foodstuffs, Ijave produced most of our econothk chaos the past few years.
Dad, my Congressman son, Philip, told me on the phone not long ago, America would be much better off if Congress had taken a prolonged vacation the past couple of years!
For legislators constantly want to concoct new laws and boost taxes, most of which merely complicate and retard the sound inrogress of American business.
Send for my booklet Common Fallacies in Logic and Political Tricks, enclosing a long stamped, return envelope, plus 25 cents.
(Always write to Dr. Crane in care of this newspaper, enclosing a long stamped, addressed envelope and 25 cents to cover typing and printing costs when you send for one of his boddets.)
The FBIs Uniform Crime Reports indicated that one-half the assaults on law enforcement officers occur between 8:00 p.m. and 2:00 p.m.

Opening lead: King of 0.
Todays declarer had no side suit of his own to develop, so he embarrassed the opposition by establishing theirs. In the pass-out position, South's jump bid of two hearts is not forcing. His hand was too good offensively to balance with one heart, for that might sound to his partner as if he were simply competing for the part score and did not have much of a hand. North gave full weight to his prime controls when he raised to game.
West led the king of diamonds and shifted to the queen of clubs. Tho this defense was the best available at trick two. Wests choice
of card conveyed a lot of information to declarer. East was now marked with the king of clubs, and since he had failed to respond to his partners opening bid, he could not hold the king of spades as well. Thus, the spade finesse was doomed to failure, and there were only nine tricks in sight.
The black suits offered no glimmer of developing a tenth trick, so declarer had to turn to diamonds as his only chance. He won the ace of clubs and made a key loser-on-loser play when he , led the ten of diamonds from dummy, and discarded a club from his hand as West won the jack.
West could do no better than lead another Club. De-c 1 a r e r ruffed, drew two rounds of trumps, ending in dummy, and led the nine of diamonds. Again he refused to ruff, instead discarding a spade. West was helpless. He was forced to win the ace of diamonds. Dummys eight of diamonds was now set up as a winner, and declarers spade holding could not be attacked, for West would be leading into the ace -queen tenace. When West elected to play another club, declarer ruffed, entered dummy with a trump and discarded the queen of spades on the established diamond. All declarer lost were three diamond tricks!

Siphoning Sees Rash Of Victims
PITTSBURGH, Pa. (AP) -The FHttsburgh Poison Center says it has been flooded with victims of the ^rgy crisis people who inadvertently swallow gasoline while siphoning it.
We were getting at least 20 cases a day for a while, Marge Stagman said Sunday while on duty as a nurse at the center. Its let up in the last week, but weve still had six or seven today.
No deaths have been reported but several persons have been hospitalized.
Miss Stagman says the rash of cases doesnt necessarily mean the people involved were stealing gasoline.
We had some who were siphoning it from their lawnmo-wers, she said, and we had others who owned two cars and were transferring the gasoline from one to the other.

Alaskans Await Oil Pipeline Wealth CLASSIFIED
By ROBERT C. MILLER ANCHORAGE, Alaska (tPI) -- The trans-Alaska pipeline permit. Anally signed in Washington, has brightened every Alaskans eye with prospects of instant wealth, fantastic growth and happiness evor after. ^
The Interior Department permit that erased the last major obstacle to the building of the 789-mile oil line is believed by many Alaskans to be a more important document than attainment of statehood. But then statehood never offered Alaska such goodies as indefinite budget surpluses in the state treasury, more than 18,000 new jobs, 40,000 more people and the right to tap a 670 square mile oil field with a market value of at least $64 billion.
Economists say it could be worth three times that amount over its 20-year life expectancy.
One economist, Robert Richards, estimates that by 1981 Alaska will have doubled its employment and increased its 330,000 population by 60 per cent, thanks to the North Slope field.
Pew in Alaska believe Interior Secretary Rogers Mortons optimistic forecast that the first oil will reach the pipeline terminus at Valdez, Alaska, by 1977. Those familiar with the magnitude of the task, the intangibles head and the terrain to be crossed, add another year or even 18 months to Mortons (n-ediction.
Final Cost Nor will anyone make anything but a rough guess as to the final cost of what was estimated as a $900 million project when conceived five years ago. The round figure of
PI AM I S
MOM'S 67TIN6' 66TT(?AWT TWSHaeS INlMg^OAP...
$5 billion is being quoted by oil officials as the minimum eost. Even the states proAts from its royalties and taxes is staggering.
Gov. William Egan figures $1.07 billion will pour into the states bank accounts by 1983 if the crude sells at the present $8.18 a barrel price.
The same survey estimates the oil companies yearly
profits at $2.86 billion, based on the Aow of 2 million barrels of oil through the pipeline each day. It wasnt too long ago that the gross national iH'oduct of the entire United States was less thn that.
The North Slope will evoitu-ally become the biggest bargain on the books of Britidi
Petroleum, Exxon, Atlantic Richfleld and Sohio (Standard of Ohio). They paid a mere $12 million for their North Slope leases which have turned out to hold about 90 per cent of its oil. The remaining 10 per cent were sold by the state for $900 million on Sept. 19, 1969, to an assortment of bidders and have so far proven worthless.
This $900 million and the interest from its investment has made Alaska one of the few states with a bank account instead of a mortgage. The state found it profitable to Ay the money immediately to New York on the sale day to bank it so as not to lose the interest that would accrue during the weekend.
Navy Dusters Gov. Egan estimates there will be $367 million left from this inheritance a year from July, the end of the next Ascal yeara figure doubted by his Republican opposition.

eulogists had surmised that there was oil on the North Slope for years, and a huge area was set aside as a Navy reserve, iMit the few shallow wells drilled for the Navy were dusters.
Atlantic Richfield brought in the first well in Febrimry, 1968 and then proved they were onto something big when their
second well drilled seven miles away came in.
Stamping your brand on the largest oil field ever discovered in North America lo<dcs good in the annual stockholders reports; getting the estimated 24 billion barrels out of the frozen Arctic and into cracking plants is another story.

million converting the 115,000-ton tanker Manhattan into the worlds biggest icebreaking tanker and tried taking the oil out the Northwest Passage. The failure of this experiment left only one alternativea pipeline.
Whats $2Mt BUIhm? Alaska oil men estimate the consortium has already spent $2.5 bUlion and not even welded the first two lengths of pipe.
But whats two and a half billion in this game? one engineer asked. Two million barrels of oil a day will be flowing through that line when we get it into full production. The Arst years profits should be more thn that.
Alyeska, the company formed to build the pipeline, expects to spend this year building roads and clearing sites for the pumping stations and the Valdez terminus. With luck, Alyeska engineers hope to get some pipe lid in Keystone Canyon near Valdez.
Men Only Camps The road linking Valdez to Prudhoe Bay is to be completed next year, then pipe laying will
start south of the Yukon River while construction starts on the pumping stations and Valdez facilities. In 1976 Alyeska hopes to complete the pipeline north of the Yukon. About 5-6,000 workers will be wcH-king on the project this year and 10,000 to 13,000 the next two years. It will be a men only task force as Alyeska says there will be no facilities for families near the construction camps. The work will proceed lO hours a day, seven days a week weather permitting.
To prepare for the event, Egan has asked the legislature for an additional $49.3 million pipeline impact appropriation. Hiis would be used to build additional schools, grant loans to pipeline route communities and beef up local police forces. Alaskans, histori-caUy familiar with the behavior of their gold-seeking ancestors, are expecting the worst.
For every one desirable job seeker attracted by the pipeline, State Rep. Alfred Ose said, there will be five deadbeats.
Julie Is Moved Into White House Suite
By FRANCES LEWINE Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) With her entire family escorting her, Julie Nixon Eisenhower has been moved from Indiana University Hospital to a suite at the White House.
Presidmt Nixon Aew from a public appearance in Huntsville, Ala., to give his ailing daughter a lift from Indianapolis to the capital by presictential motorcade, plane and helicopter on Monday.
Mrs. Eisenhower, who underwent surgery for a bleeding ovarian cyst at Indianapolis last Thursday, went right to bed in a second-Aoor suite, with doctors and a nurse from the White House medical dis-poisary on call if needed.
During the hours flight to Washington, Mrs. Eisenhower rested in a bedroom of the presidential jet plane, visiting with members of her family.
Presidential Press Secretary Ronald L. Ziegler said assistant White House physician William Lukash found his 25-year-old patient very weak on the way home.
Indiana University Medical School specialists permitted Mrs. Eisenhower to go home three days earlier than luual after such an operation. They said she would need at least three more weeks of reaq;>er-
ation before resuming normal activities.
As she departed the hospital with her husband, David, pushing her vdieelchair and followed by the President, Mrs. Nixon and Julies sister, Tricia Cox, Mrs. Eisenhower bade farewell to the 30 nurses, doctors and staff who cared for her.
' She hugged several nurses and introduced Mrs. Donna Lautner to the President as the one who took care of me one of those nights when I felt so sick.

NEW YORK (AP) The stock market racked up a strong gain today as investors looked for favorable Middle East developments to emerge from a meeting of two Arab foreign ministers with President Nixon.
The 11:30 a.m. Dow Jones average of 30 industrial stocks was up 13.07 at 833.39, and gainers overwhelmed losers by 4-to-l on the New York Stock Exchange.
The advance came on top of a 10.20 rise in the Dow industrials Friday. Brokers said the surge was traceable primarily to apparently rising hopes that Arab oil-producing countries soon would relax their embargo on shipments to the United States and possibly roll back prices somewhat.
Gains were widespread in travel and leisure-industry stocks and other companies whose business is linked to availability of oil. Ramada Inns was up % at 6V4 in active trad-J ing; Walt Disney Productions climbed 1% to 42%, and Marriott, a motel chain operator, rose 1% to 16%.
Oil issues also gained. On the active list. Gulf rose % to 22%, Continental Oil was up % to 43 V4, and Phillips Petroleum climbed 1% to 49%.
Redman Industries was the Big Boards most-active stock, up % at 4. The NYSEs 11 a.m. index of all its listed common stocks was ahead .74 at 50.07.
On the American Stock Exchange, the market-value index rose .84 to 95.11. The Amex volume leader was Total Petroleum of North America, up 9-16 at 8 11-16.

MindszentyWill Visit The U.S.
VIENA (AP) Joszef Cardinal Mindszenty plans to visit the United States later this year.
The 82-year-old cardinal was relieved two weeks ago by Pope Paul VI as archbishop of Estergom and primate of Hungary.
'The cardinals visit was planned a long time ago and prior to the Popes decision, an aide to the cardinal said Monday.
Monsignor Tibor Mesaros said the visit was to give courage and confidence to the many Americans of Hungarian origin.

By WILLIAM DiMASCIO Associated Press Writer HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) Thomas Gatch Jr.s bid to make the first balloon flight across the Atlantic has suffered a slight setback, but he is stiU cruising along at 35,500 feet above the sea.
After crossing the coastline north of Atlantic City, N.J., Monday night, Gatch reported by radio that one of his 10 superpressure balloons had ruptured and was draped over a porthole on his pressurized gondola, Light Heart.
Gatch said he heard a loud noise when the balloon apparently burst, just over an hour after take-off.
The 48-year-old bachelor from Alexandria, Va., lifted off from Harrisburg International Airport at 7:29 p.m. EDT Monday on a flight he hopes will take him to southern France or northern Spain in approximately 52 hours. At 10 p.m. EDT, Aeronautical Instrument & Radio Co. in New York reported Gatch at about 200 miles southeast of New York City.
Scholarship To New Bern Coed
Rachel H. Ipock, senior student in the East Carolina University Department of Business Administoation, is the 1974 recipient of the Greenville Credit Women-lnternational Scholarship.
The Credit Women annually award the scholarship to a female student in the ECU School of Business who is a resident of eastern North Carolina.
President of the organization is Angelene H. Venters.
Ms. Ipock is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Alton C. Hathcock, 1815 Spencer Ave., New Bern. She will graduate this May.
Aides said the timetable Would change because the ruptured balloon would force Gatch to fly lower than the 39,-000 feet originally planned. They said the craft could lose two more balloons without placing the flier in danger.
The radio monitoring station in New York reported the Light Heart was traveling about 150/ miles per hour in an eastbound jet stream when it crossed the coastline.
The Army Reserve colonel spent $60,000 and two years planning the flight with the transparent polyester balloons, which measure 26 feet in diameter when fully inflated. The helium expands as the balloon ascends, and the balloons would have been fully inflated at 39,000 feet, aides said.
Gatchs fiberglass and plastic gondola is equipped with two radios, provisions for 10 days and styrofoam flotation devices.
Urges Talents Turn To Energy
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (AP) Vice President Gerald R. Ford has urged American engineers to use their ingenuity to solve the energy shortage.
Ford told a meeting of Chat-tanooga-area engineers that there is no shortage of American engineering talent, only a shortage of time.
Fortunately, in this crisis as in similar situations in the past, ingenuity can be a substitute for time, Ford said Monday night.
Among the challenges Ford assigned to the engineers were finding ways to stop waste of energy, increase production in the shortest possiMe time, preserve air and water quality and keep costs at a minimum.

Reps. Walter Jones (D-1), Richardson Preyer (D-6) ^nd James Martin (R-9) voted yea.
Reps. L. H. Fountain (D-2), David Henderson (D-3), Ike Andrews (D-4), Wilmer Mizell (R-5), Charles Rose (D-7), Earl Ruth (R-8), James Broyhill (R-10) and Roy Taylor (D-11) voted nay.

authorize the pass through ol diesel fuel cost hikes.
Federal mediators who settled the truckers strike thus were given the authority to back up their promises.
Supporters of the resolution argued that truckers deserve economic relief.
Some opponents argued thtft it was unfair to force shippers to absorb the rising cost of fuel. Other opponents argued against suspending the thirty-day rule without first conducting committee hearings.
Jones, Fountain, Henderson, Andrews, Mizell, Preyer, Rose, Ruth, Martin, Broyhill and Taylor voted yea.
SOLAR ENERGY Passed, 253 for and two against, a bill to authorize $50 million through fiscal 1979 for research into harnessing sunlight to heat and
cool buildings.
The measure now goes to the Senate.
If the bill becomes law, th 1 National Aeronautics and Space * Administration the Department of Housing and Urban Development and the National Science Foundation will Jointly administer a solar energy program.
Many buildings around the country are heated with solar energy, but they require conventional furnaces to provide heat when the sun does not shine.
Supporters estimated that if five per cent of the nations homes used solar -energy, the nation would cut its heating bills by $2 billion, and free vast-supplies of conventional fuels for other uses.
Houses heated with solar energy use a grid of small pipes on their southern roof face.-Water passes through the pipes, is heated by the sun, then is* pumped to a basement reser-' voir. Once the reservoir is/ heated, it becomes a source of heat for the whole house.
Jones, Fountain, Andrews, Mizell, Preyer, Rose, Ruth, Martin, Broyhill and Taylor voted yea.
Henderson did not vote. /
