HENRY CABOT LODGE, chief U.S. negotiator in the Viet-
nam peace talks, has been asked to return from Paris next week
for "consultations and instructions."
The announcement, which came yesterday, also said Nixon would
meet tomorrow with Secretary of Defense Melvin Laird, Gen. Earle
Wheeler, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and other service
chiefs as he embarks on a new round of Vietnam policy consultations.
AMERICAN DEATHS IN VIETNAM DROPPED last week to
the lowest toll in three years.
Official sources said yesterday if the downward trend continues,'
President Nixon might be prompted to speed up troop withdrawals.
Lack of enemy activity was given as the reason for a recent pull-
out from the Shau Valley, seized last spring after a controversial battle
for Hamburger Hill.
However, U.S. officials have declined to speculate whether the
increasing lull foreshadows a political breakthrough toward ending
the war.
CZECHOSLOVAKIA YESTERDAY barred its citizens from
private travel to the West in the most stringent frontier control
since the 1968 Soviet invasion.
Relatively free travel had been allowed even before the ouster of
Stalinist Antonin Novotny as president in 1968, and had been one
of the last freedoms remaining since the invasion.
Airline and travel officials were informed all exit permits in
private passports have been declared invalid immediately.
The cutoff went into effect at midnight Wednesday and caught
hundreds of travelers at airports and frontier crossings.
THE SUPREME COURT yesterday agreed to decide whether
public school in Mississippi-and possibly throughout the south-
must be integrated immediately.
The court will rule on an appeal by the NAACP Legal Defense and
Educational Fund that demands the immediate desegregation of 222
schools in 33 Mississippi districts.
The Justice Department advised the court to reject the appeal
or postpone action, however, the court granted a hearing for Oc-
tober 23.
A BLACK JUDGE yesterday dismissed curfew violation
charges brought against nearly 204 blacks arrested during the
past four days of Las Vegas disorders.
Municipal Court Judge Robert'E. Mullen said he had been assured
his action would end the violence. He added his action would apply
both to those who had pleaded guilty to the charge and those awaiting
arraignment for trial.
The curfew, lasting from dusk until dawn, was in effect Mondaya
and Tuesday night during the worst of the unrest which broke out1
Sunday on the city's predominantly black west side. The curfew
applied only to that area.

A JETLINER WAS HIJACKED TO (UBA yesterday, the
Federal Aviation Administration reported.
The National Airlines plane bound from Los Angeles to
Miami was over Texas when the pilot notified authorities he was,
being diverted to Havana.
There was no immediate word on how many people were aboard.
The plane was the thirty-first U.S. airliner of a total of 46 that
have been forced to Cuba this year.

CHICAGO (J11 )- Gov. Richard
B. Ogilvie yesterday ordered 2,000,
members of the National Guard
to active duty in Chicago after
street battles the night before
between police and some 300
young radicals.
Ogilvie said in Springfield that
Brig. Gen. Richard T. Dunn, who
has been in Chicago for two days,
recommended the Army-affiliated
guard be activated as a result of
the fighting that took place on the
near north side.
The governor said he talked with
Mayor Richard J. Daley about!

the plans of the radicals Tuesday
and Gen. Dunn was asked to ob-
serve the situation.
A spokesman for Ogilvie said
Dunn's recommendation was bas-,
ed on the violence Wednesday,
night and the fear that more dis-
orders might occur last night.
Daley praised police for their
restraint during Wednesday's hit-
and-run skirmishes with young
persons who stormed out of Lin-
coln Park following a bonfire and
rally.
One SDS group, the Weather-
man, sponsored the Lincoln Park

Would you wear a towel to
class ?'
This burning question plagued
the women of Helen Newberry
Wednesday night after Leslie
Siegal, '73. wore a turkish towel
as a skirt to dinner.
She was subsequently charged
with violating Helen Newberry
dress regulations which stipu-
late that one must be attired in
"school dress (skirt)" for din-
ner.
Kathy McGuire, dorm presi-
dent and prosecuting attorney,

charged that turkish towels,
though they may fit Webster's
definition of a skirt, are n o t
normal school dress.
After a 45-minute p u b I i c
trial. a four-man jury ruled
Miss Siegal was not guilty of
violating the rules, apparently
deciding that turkish towels are
school clothes.
Trial proceedings were delay-
ed nearly 15 minutes because
Miss Siegal contended that one
of the jurors was biased. The
juror in question was the head
waitress who had warned Miss
Siegal before dinner that she was
H in violation of the rules.
The juror was replaced.
Nearly 50 people jammed the
Helen Newberry sun-porch for
the trial and the presiding
judge had to quiet the rambunc-
tious crowd at least five times.
The opening remarks for the
prosecution included an ex-
planation of existing dorm rules
and the presentation as evidence
of two fashion magazines to es-
tablish what school dress is.
"Leslie came to dinner in a
green t-shirt, a pink towel, and
blue floppy hat," Miss McGuire

charged. "I believe this is not
in accord with 'school dress.'"
"Boo," said many of the aud-
ience.
Defending Miss Siegal w a s
four-man legal team from the
literary college - Paul Bader,
'71. Howard Fruman, '7-, Joel
Seyber, '71 and Mary Ann Dres-
ner. '73. Opening the defense,
Bader said a verdict against
Miss Siegal "might eliminate in-
novation for mankind."
"That's denying Leslie's right
to be a trend setter," he added
with a bright red towel draped
over his shoulder "for effect."
Miss Dresner, taking over Miss
Siegal's defense, maintained
that a towel "is probably longer
and thicker than many of the
skirts worn. It's a wrap skirt
only instead of being made out
of wool or cotton it's made out
of terry cloth."
''Hurrah," yelled a majority
of those present.
After the trial, Miss Siegal
said. "I think the dress code is
completely ridiculous. I believe
the dorm has no right to tell me
ivhat to wear."

rally for 400 persons which end-
ed in two hours of street skirm-
ishes between police and c 1u b-
carrying, helmeted youths. There
were 65 persons arrested and 34I
.persons, including 21 policemen,
injured.
The Weatherman's rival for con-
trol of SDS and recruitment of
many unaligned young radicaTs,1
is Revolutionary Youth M o v e -
ment II which sponsored a demon-
stration yesterday at the U. S.
courthouse where eight political'
activists - the Chicago Eight -
are being tried on charges ofa
crossing state lines in a conspir-
acy to incite riots.
About 150 persons were in the
courthouse plaza but there were
no incidents.
Twelve women including B e r -
nardine Dohrn, 27, former inter-
organizational secretary of SDS,
were arrested yesterday after they
rushed police during a demonstra-
tion near the Conrod Hilton hotel.
Police said women marched six
abreast at Balboa Drive and
Michigan Avenue and refused
police orders to disperse. Offic-
ials said the women, many of
whom wore helmets and carried
clubs and chains, planned to
march to an induction center.
Those arrested were charged
with aggravated battery, m o b
action and resisting arrest. The
others were permitted to continue
the march. Seven policement were
slightly injured.
Leaders of both SDS wings pre-'
dicted 5,000 to 15,000 young per-
sons would attend the demon-
strations planned through tomor-
row in Chicago.
Daley said at a news conference
that Wednesday night's window-
smashing "guerrilla tactics" were
"an outrage against the com-
munity."
He said he would not hesitate
to request National Guard troops
to help quell rioting if necessary,!
but he has no plans to do so at
present.

10-7 ballot
follows week
of delay
WASHINGTON 11) The Sen-
ate Judiciary Committee ap-
proved the Supreme Court
nomination of Clement F.
Haynsworth Jr. yesterday, op-
ening the way for a spirited
struggle on the floor.
The vote was 10-6 to climax a
two-hour closed debate o v e r
Haynsworth's business dealings.
Maryland Republican Charles
Mac Mathias withheld his vote on
grounds information he asked for
was not immediately available.
Some hours later, however, Ma-.
thias in a letter to the committee
Chairman asked to be recorded in
r opposition to the nomination,
making the final vote 10-7.
Before the committee took its
vote on the nomination, it reject-
ed, 14-3, a motion by Mathias to
postpone action again.-
The committee postponed its
vote twice before, last week and
again Wednesday after Sen. Rob-
ert P. Griffin, the Republican
whip from Michigan, publicly
joined the opposition to Hayns-
worth.
Judiciary Chairman James o.
Eastland (D-Miss.), said it would
be at least a week before minority
and majority reports could be pre-
pared, a formality necessary be-
fore floor debate can start.
Sen. Birch Bayh, the Indiana
Democrat and Judiciary Commit-
tee member who has been leading
the opposition to Haynsworth, said
it may be two weeks before debate
begins.
Despite the solid vote to report
the nomination of Haynsworth, a
judge on the 4th Court of Appeals
for the past 12 years, prospects
for confirmation remained highly
uncertain with each side claiming
the majority required to confirm
or reject the nominee.
Bayh, in a news conference out-
side the committee room, several
times referred to "half the Sen-
ate" being against the nomination.
Eastland, who has conceded that
there might be 30 to 35 votes
against confirmation, said yester-
day, "He'll be confirmed by a sub-
stantial vote."
Estimates reportedly compiled
by the Democratic leadership
ranged from what was described
as a "rock bottom" 52 votes
against the nomination to a high
of 63.
The 63 figure was said to in-
clude every member of the Senate
who wants to vote against Hayns-
worth, but might for one reason
or another be obliged to go the
other way.
President Nixon has in a d e it
clear to his Republican colleagues
that he expects their support on
the nomination.
As an example of the uncer-
tainty, one Republican senator
who was considered solidly behind
the administration told a reporter
privately yesterday that not only
would he vote against it on the
floor, but might speak out before
then.
This same senator said also that
another Republican whose vote is
considered influential now is
ready to join the opposition.
Bayh in a "bill of particulars"
has listed seven instances in which
he said Haynsworth took part in
a decision while holding an inter-
est in one of the companies in-
volved in the case.
