By FRANK CORMIER Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON (P) - Richard Milhous Nixon, returned from the p~olitically dead to become 37th President of the United States, is shunning the contro- versies of yesteryear in a new search for consensus. Marching under the inaugural banner of "Forward Together," Nixon moves into the White House with the same air of deli- beration and caution that mark- ed his election campaign. To a generation of voters once removed from those who cast first ballots in 1968, this stance seems almost alien to the Nixon of 15 or 20 years ago known for his hard-nosed partisanship. If Nixon's apparent shift away from narrow partisanship is part of the Nixon phenomenon, more remarkable is the fact that he sits in the White House just g SUGGESTED FOR MATURE AUDIENCES G TECNICOLORtFROM WARNER BROS.-SEVEN ARTS f BY POPULAR DEMAND!

After losing the closest presi- dential election in 76 years to John F. Kennedy in 1960, Nixon two years later was defeated for governor of California. Standing before television cameras, he voiced to newsmen the bitter- ness of a two-time loser: "You won't h a v e Nixon to d kick around any longer because, gentlemen, this is my last press confer once." The Nixon career has been marked by obstacles encounter- ed and, one way or another, ov- ercome. Although he professes no fondness for the Horatio Al- ger-type myth, there is a bit of that in his past. His Quaker parents, Frank and Hannah Nixon, never knew dire poverty y e t flirted fre- quently with economic distress, because of ambitious plans gone awry and costly illness t h a t Ending E Wednesday Christopher Plummer Orson Welles Dial 8-6416 Lilli Palmer An unsurpassed cast in one of the great plays of the ages!

Parttime jobs, a scholarship and some help from the family enabled Nixon to graduate from Whittier College and the Duke Law School. He was elected student body president at each, excelled on the debating teams and won high scholastic honors. With law degree in hand, Nixon considered becoming an FBI agent and was promised an interview with J. Edgar Hoover. Instead he returned to Whittier and worked in a private law firm headed by the Republican city attorney. With the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, Nixon offered his services to the federal govern- ment and moved to Washington to help set up rubber rationing for the wartime Office of Price Administration. Pat Nixon went to work for Uncle Sam, too. After a few weeks in the capi- tol, Nixon sought a Navy com- mission, although as a Quaker he could have claimed exemp- tion from active service. The commission was granted in the summer of 1942 and Nixon serv- ed successively in landlocked Iowa, the combat-scarred is- lands of the South Pacific, Southern California and Wash- ington. While still wearing the uni- form of a lieutenant commander, Nixon entered politics in 1946 by invitation-not through his own initiative. Republicans back in Whittier were seeking a candidate to challenge a 10-year House vet- eran, Jerry Voorhis; they even rana help-wanted advertise- ment in a local newspaper. Someone suggested "Nixon's the one" and he flew home for a job interview. The campaign transformed Nixon into a controversial polit- ical figure-and a winner.

A Soviet government statement, given by Leonid Zam- yatin, head of the Foreign Ministry press section, said agree- ment with the United States on restricting the arms race "Is quite feasible though not an easy thing." . The United States had stalled on opening negotiations because of the Soviet-bloc occupation of Czechoslovakia. AIR FORCE STARLIFTERS landed at Nuernberg's airport yesterday carrying U.S.-based combat troops for maneuvers near the Czech border. The exercises, in which about 15,000 troops will partici- pate, come under the direction of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. The participating U.S. forces will be about 20 miles from the frontier behind which the Russian A r m y now lies In strength. The Soviet Union called the planned maneuvers a provo- cation. THE NATIONAL GUARD guarded the streets of Wi- mington, Del. last night for the last time a f ter nine months of dusk-to-dawn patrols to prevent a repetition of last April's riots Governor-elect Russell W. Peterson announced Sunday night that one of his first official acts 'after his inauguration today would be to deactivate the guard patrols. * . . THE SUPREME COURT yesterday ruled that cities and states cannot require referral of anti-discrimination laws in open housing to voters. In an 8-1 decision, the Court held that laws intended to improve housing conditions for blacks- and other minorities cannot constitutionally be subjected to voter sanction not demanded of other laws. The decision answered a procedure instituted in Akron, Ohio in 1964 to give voters veto-power over open housing or- dinances. THE SENATE confirmed 11 of President Nixon's 12 new Cabinet members, The only nominee not given immediate approval was Gov. Walter J. Hickel of Alaska as secretary of the interior. The Senate Interior Committee had approved his ap- pointment yesterday after five days of close scrutiny that produced controversy over his policy views and financial holdings. The Senate is expected to vote on his appointment today. THE SPEED which marked the agreement on the new phase of the Vietnam peace talks caught the United States by surprise. Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge, who only arrived in Paris last night, announced that there would be no talks today. Lodge will be briefed by his colleagues, including Ambassador Cyrus R. Vance, the holdover deputy chairman of the U.S. delegation. * . . VIET CONG BROADCASTS called yesterday for a stepped up, war to drive out the United States forces and overthrow theSaigon government. They also proposed a national general meeting to discuss peace and a political settlement. The broadcasts followed a weekend of intensified Viet Cong shellings and terrorist incidents. However, a U.S. spokes- man said there had been no reports of new thrusts against towns or military posts. * . . CMDR. LLOYD M. BUCHER, captain of the USS Pu- eblo, said yesterday that there was no destruct system on board to destroy secret equipment and code when the in- telligence ship was captured by North Koreans. In his opening testimony at a court of inquiry Into the seizure of the Pueblo last year, Bucher said that he had ad- dressed a classified letter to the chief of naval operations re- questing the system, but was told that it was impossible to include it without a "great deal of expense and time." THE TRIAL OF CLAY SHAW, accused of conspiring to kill President John F. Kennedy, is scheduled to begin today in New Orleans. Dist. Atty. Jim Garrison withdrew a motion for a delay yesterday. An assistant to Garrison said the prosecution was ready to proceed but refused to discuss the reasons behind the withdrawal.
