Steve McQueen. 'The Reivers' . 'Open ad NEWARK, N.J. (P) - A controver- sial "open admissions" policy born out of a black student demonstration at Rutgers University last year appar- ently is a success after one semester of operation. The program, which is in effect on the Camden, New Brunswick a n d Newark campuses of Rutgers, New Jersey's state university, offers non- credit "developmental courses" in Eng- lish and mathematics, social studies, science, communications skills, and composition to any high school grad- uate in the area. The student takes the courses, along with some credit work, and when stu- dent and counselor are satisfied with the student's progress, he can move missions' plan succeeding at Rutgers MICHIGAN Eventually: "VIVA MAX" into one o fthe university's regular programs. Tuition and books are provided with- out cost. A staff of 75, including teacher-counsellors was hired for the program. John Martin, assistant provost at Rutgers, said, "The program's success- ful as far as we can tell. We're en- couraged." "We're talking about high risk stu- dents here," one university official said. "Very few institutions would stick their necks out to take such a risk." Vice President Spiro T. Agnew has criticized programs such as the one at Rutgers as the product of "s o m e strange madness." The 527 students who probably would not be in college without the program are beginning their second semester in the school's urban uni- versity department. "It's nice, I dig it," says student William Bain, studying to be a com- puter specialist. While 13 per cent of the students have dropped out - for academic, financial and personal reasons - the other 87 per cent have remained. One student at the Camden cam- pus, Michael Duke, made the dean's list, and another, John Spuhler, was elected treasurer of the freshman class. About one-third are making average grades - C, in their credit work, and according to Dr. Rodney Carlisle, chairman of the department at Cam- den, would have qualified for regular college admission. "So often," he said, "their street cultures and their bad schools have prevented them from showing their potential. But with motivation and some help they can do it." To succeed, the administrators and students feel, the program and the courses that follow it must be re- sponsive to, the. minorities who study them. "Sure, give us Western Civilization," says Mrs. Frances Matlhare, who is black and who heads the N e w a r k program, "but don't forget my ances- tors." "The students want to know," says Cheryl Evans, a black assistant to Mrs. Matlhare, "just what does 'Western Civ' have to do with the starving peo- ple on my block. They want answers." One course open to the students cov- ers the movement of the black man from Africa to the United States, and looks at" the black leaders such as Dr. Martin Luther King, Malcolm X and the Black Panthers. The State Senate has approved a supplemental appropriation of $747,- 515 for this semester, and Republican Gov. William Cahill is expected to recommend retention of the program. ------ -......---I , i i i 1 I : I I I I I Feb. 14, 15, Sot., Sun. THE 400 BLOWS ...... .:.::. Dir.

The Israeli planes, reported to be two U.S.-built Phantom jets, hit the scrap metal plant in a suburb of Cairo by accident "as a result of technical error", an Israeli army spokesman said. The Egyptian demonstrators accused the United States of colla- borating with Israel in the raid. Some Arab newspapers urged the Egyptians to strike at civilian targets in Israel and U.S. interests in the Middle East in reprisal for the factory bombing. The Egyptian representative to the U.N. has sent a letter to all member nations protesting "the crime committed by Israel against Icivilians." Meanwhile, the United States strongly condemned the attack on the Egyptian factory, but administration officials said it would have no effect on President Nixon's decision on whether to sell Israel 25 phantom jets and 100 skyhawks. Nixon is expected to an- nounce his decision sometime this month. * * A MAYOR GINO J. ARCONTI of Danbury, Conn. declared a state of emergency in the wake of a bank robbery and three bombings. Two bank robbers, armed with a machine gun and a sawed-off shotgun, first bombed the police headquarters, injuring eight police- men and several civilians, none critically. They then moved to the Union Savings Bank, about three blocks from the police station where they removed $40,000 from the cash drawers. They fled, leaving a bomb which subsequently exploded, in- juring several people. The robbers then ran to their car, parked at a shopping center about four blocks away, and left a bomb in the parking lot which exploded and damaged several cars as they escaped.I Bombings also occurred in Berkeley, Calif. where two bombs exploded in a police parking lot. The successive blasts of explosive packed in sections of pipe wounded seven policemen, one seriously, destroyed three cars and shattered windows in a nearby apartment complex. * * * THREE SOUTHERN STATES have been allowed tofile a motion asking permission to intervene on the side of the Federal government in a Pasadena, Calif. school segregation. The three states, Mississippi, Alabama and Louisiana, were given permission to file their motion by U.S. District Court Judge Manuel' Real. This action is part of an effort by southern states to establish uniformity in federally-ordered school integration. Mississippi Atty Gen. A. F. Summer said southern states were: given only two weeks to comply with federal court desegregation or- ders, whereas Pasadena was allowed until next September to integrate its schools. DISPOSAL OF chemical warfare stocks in Colorado will cost four times as much as the original plan for dumping the munitions in the Atlantic Ocean. Lt. Col. Sampson Bass, director of the disposal operation, said the dismantling and burning of obsolete nerve and mustard gas munitions at the Rocky Mountain, Colo. arsenal will cost $14.6 million over the next three years. This compares with a $3 million cost which had been anticipated for the now-rejected Army proposal to move the stocks by train to the east coast for subsequent dumping in the ocean. Bass feels the extra cost is justified on the grounds of greater safety.F A national Academy of Sciences group advised the Army last year that it would besafer to break down the munitions and get rid of their contents at the arsenal rather than try to ship them by train and carry them out to sea for dumping.

Har- rold Carswell yesterday over a whites-only land deal by the Supreme Court nominee. The Palm Beach Post said yes. terday that the deed, to a piece of property sold, by Carswell and his wife in 1966 contained . a whites-only clause. The newspaper said the anti-black restriction was apparently first established by Carswell's brother-in-law, Jack Simmons Jr. A convenant written into the deed for the Wakulla County pro- perty, which included 38 acres on Ochlocknee Bay, said "ownership, occupancy and use shall be re- stricted to members of the Cau- casian race." The property sold for about $4,800, the Post said. "I think if you look across the country at various real estate documents you would find that this particular incident is not iso- lated at all," said Ronald L. Zieg- ler, press secretary to President Nixon. He said, however, that the Pre- sident had nothbeen aware of the transaction when he nominated Carswell. Nixon was on a long ted Press weekend vacation at Key Biscayne. "I would imagine that most of the land transactions in the past b a few in Florida might have had such a clause," said Rep. Rogers Morton, (R-Kentucky), who was attending a Republican fund-raising party in Deerfield Beach.

(IP) - A'j converted cattle transport sailed from this Bay of Fundy port last night, taking some 500 American youths to Cuba for the s u g a r cane harvest. The freighter, Luis Arcos Berg- nes, arrived here Thursday with 216 members of the "Venceremos Brigade" who has been working on the harvest in Cuba since No- vember. They were replaced by the 500 other youths, also brigade mem- bers, who came to Saint John on buses from the United States. The vessel's departure was de- layed because. Canadian port of- ficials, noting the planned in- crease in the number of passeng- ers, became concerned that there were not enough life jackets and other emergency equipment aboard, and wanted to insure the needed supplies could be obtained. The brigade was formed 1 a s t fall to aid Cubans in harvestingl their sugar crop. Returning mem- bers of the group denounced theE "corrupt and antihuman system,"1 of government in the U n i t e d States, saying they "understand better than ever the necessity for total destruction of U.S. imperial- ism ."'. Late Thursday night, Americanj customs officials in Calais, Maine, allowed three busloads of return- ing youths to enter the United States, but only after seizing many Cuban-manufactured items which they carried. The goods seized included sug- ar, metals and souvenirs. In ad- dition, customs spokesmen said, they were "retaining" most books and posters being brought back, including English versions of Com- munist publications. The outbound youths boarded the ship late Thursday afternoon. Exactly what type of accommoda- tions the freighter offered could not be detetmined.
