Pomp, protest welcome Teng B) AP and Reuter WASHINGTON - Surprised by screaming protesters, President Carter welcomed China's Teng Hsiao-ping to the United States yesterday and invited him to join in a "common journey" tow rd peace and stability in Asia and the world. Teng, unsmiling target of the protesters only yards away, said Sino-American relations "are at a new beginning and the world is at a new turning point." Speaking in Chinese, he said he ex- pected "fruitful results" from his talks with the President. DURING THE welcoming ceremony on the White House south lawn, Carter and Teng seemed startled when two demon- strators, standing among reporters and cameramen on a gran- dstand facing the official platform about 15 feet away, twice. disrupted their speeches by shouting epithets at the thinese vice premier. First a woman, identified later as Sonia Ransom, 26, of Seat- tIe, Wash., broke into Carter's welcoming remarks to scream: "Teng Hsiao-ping - you are a murderer!" She was dragged away by Secret Service agents. A few minutes later, a man with a camera around his neck pulled some papers from his pocket and shouted excitedly: "Traitor. Down with Teng Hsiao-ping. You cannot make this a garden party!" The man was identified as Keith Kozimoto, 28, of New York City. THE MAN AND woman were arrested and charged with disorderly conduct.

Khomeini to re-enter Iran; TEHRAN, Iran (AP:) - Moslem f rioters, furious over the government'sn refusal to bow to Ayatullah Ruhollah Khomeini's leadership, went on ap vengeful rampage of arson here yesterday. Later, it was announced a Iran's airports would reopen, allowing Khomeini to return from his long exile. T As fires raged in southern Tehran, troops opened fire to scatter the angry mobs of protesters, and at least-three E protesters were reported killed.f THE RIOTERS, bent on ridding theirr country of "sinful" Western influences, set fire to a nightclub, a brewery, liquor % stores and a pork-processing plant and n attacked brothels. A police general wasy badly beaten. In an incident late Sunday, a U.S. Airc Force major, identified as Larry'Davis of Missouri, was shot and wounded bya an unknown assailant. Davis wasa hospitalized in satisfactory condition. G It appeared that Khomeini, architect of the anti-shah movement, might fly open s rom France to Iran as early as Wed- nesday. FOR DAYS, authorities blocked his planned triumphant homecoming by shutting down Iran's airports. Officials at Tehran airport said it and the coun- try's other airports would reopen Tuesday, but probably would not begin receiving planes until Wednesday. At his home outside Paris, Khomeini's aides said he was ready to fly to Iran as soon as the airports reopened, Prime Minister Shahpour Bakhtiar, who has hinted of plots by the Iranian military against Khomeini, said the 78- year-old Moslem clergyman could return to Iran as soon as his security could be ensured. BUT KHOMEINI himself declared in a statement Monday, "We don't ask , any security from Bakhtiar or anyone. God is the best protector of my safety."

B parole law in dispute By STEVEN SHAER First in a two part series Proposal B was overwhelmingly approved by Michigan's electorate in last November's election and has been in effect since December 10. Although it is too early to tell if it will be effective in reducing the state's crime rate the new law is being assailed by critics as being unfair, costly, and futile. The new law is very simple in its application. No parole will be granted to any prisoner convicted of any one of 80 enumerated crimes until at least the minimum sentence-has been served. L. BROOKS 'PATTERSON, the Oaklan County Prosecuting Attorney who was the major catalyst in placing the proposal on the ballot, believes that the majority of violent crimes committed in Michigan are perpetrated by the same'individual again and again. By eliminating parole for the violent criminal Patterson forsees a reduction in the rate of serious crime. "Most people will agree that approximately 15 per cent of the criminal population commit 65 per cent of violent crimes," Patterson said in an interview last Friday. "If you can sock it to them you diminish crime." The Michigan Department of Corrections, which went on record against the proposal long before its passage, said that of all persons arrested for serious violent crime in the state, on4, 13 per cent had previousprison terms. The department already experiencing severe overcrowding in Michigan prisons, opposes the law due to the increase in prison' popultion it will produce. Patterson said that statistics like these do not take into account crimes a parolee commits but where there is no arrest. "WE'VE ARRESTED MANY people who were on parole who have confessed to hundreds of crimes they were not caught for," Patterson emphasized. Horace Gilmore, a Wayne County Circuit Court judge who opposed the proposal prior to the election disagrees with Pat- terson. "(Proposal B) was sold as a crime preventive; it doesn't do this. It only affects those in jail." He added that the "percentage of violent crimes commit- ted on parole are relatively small." Before the new law went into effect, all prisoners, except those convicted of first degree murder, were entitled to the provisions of "good time." Utilizing a statutory formula ap- plied equally to all prisoners convicted of the identical crime, the parole board figured out the amount of "good time" days the prisoner had coming. If the prisoner behaved while in prison, he would go before the parole board at a date substan- tially earlier than the minimum sentence he had received in court. The parole board could then grant the inmate early release on parole. A POINT OF CONTROVERSY evolving out of Proposal B is that parole is still available to those who were convicted See PROPOSAL, Page 9 Tuesday * The forces of toppled Cam- bodia Premier Pol Pot claim to be closing in on Phnom Penh from all directions.

Carter granted executive clemency to Miss Hearst, perhaps the nation's most celebrated federal prisoner, and commuted her seven-year sentence for bank robbery. AN ANNOUNCEMENT of the President's action, taken on the recommendation of the Justice Depar- tment, said Miss Hearst will be freed Thursday from the federal prison at Pleasanton, Calif. She has served 22 months of her sentence. The White House said Miss Hearst, who will be 25 next month, "has been punished substantially" for her part in the holdup of a San Francisco bank two months after she was kidnapped by the Symbionese Liberation Army in 1974. The announcement said she "needs no further rehabilitation, and it is the consensus of all involved in her proceedings and confinement that she is no risk to the community and that, on the contrary, she will be a law-abiding citizen." TO WIN HER freedom, Miss Hearst had to agree to a series of parole-like conditions that she must observe for a one-year period. Terry Adamson, a Justice Department spokesman, said a department official spoke to Miss Hearst earlier in the day and won her agreement. The conditions include requirements that she not leave the country without permission of the attorney general, that she avoidanyone who has a criminal record, that she keep no firearms and that she submit to possible unspecified additional supervision by the attorney general. Hearst was kidnapped' on February 4, 1974 by an underground urban guerrilla group known as the Symbionese Liberation Army (SLA). DESPITE EMOTIONAL appeals by her parents for her release, Miss Hear- st announced in a taped message two months later that she was changing her name to Tania andstaying on to fight alongside the SLA. She eluded a widespread police sear- ch for 18 months but was eventually captured in San Francisco and convic- ted of joining SLA members in' a 1974 robbery of the Hibernia Bank.

The program, which began rather quitely last fall, has upset many groups across the state who find its implemen- tation dangerous to the livelihood of the state's'public colleges and universities. stituted under Public Act 105 of 1978, provides an additional $6.2 million in financial aid to all freshpeople in private and religious colleges in Michigan. The act provides a $500 reimbursement to any freshperson who chooses to attend a private institution - regardless of the student's financial need. Students in public colleges and universities are ineligible for this aid. The cost of the program will escalate next year, when both freshpeonle and (MEA), the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), and the Parent- Teachers Association (PTA), have combined their manpower and are currently circulating petitions calling for a halt to the program and placing the issue before Michigan voters in 1980. The groups need to gather 180,000 signatures by March 15 of this year, and a drive began yesterday at the Univer- sity to garner additional support for the cause.
