ITZCU INTLI (THE DOG) symbol for the 10th doy of the ancient Aztec week, NEW YORK ( - The three major networks broadcast Pres- ident Ford's Kansas City speech live last night, but only after a formal White House request that drew a grumble from CBS and an expression of concern from NBC. There were no gripes from ABC. CBS and ABC said they in- itally decided against live cov- erage of the speech on the basis of news judgent. But NBC said it had made no decision on live coverage prior to the formal re- quest for air time. White House Press Secretary Ron Nessen, a former NBC newsman, said in a statement approved by Ford and issued at midday yesterday that "the net- works did not feel that it was newsworthy" to air live cover- age of how Americans can fight inflation and conserve energy. Therefore, he said, "We have Milliken predicts 'U' state fund increase formally requested time for the calling our news bureau in networks this evening." Washington this morning."

S t a t e appropriation figures make up the balk of the Uni- versity's General Fund Budget (this year $158 million) which pays for such programs as teaching, research, student fi- nancial aid, counseling services and administration. In last week's letter, Milliken had said to "assume that tui- tion increases and enrollment decreases are not viable alter- natives" to make up revenues lost if state appropriations to the Ann Arbor campus are slashed from this year's 5105.5 million to $101.3 million, which the governor targeted for next, year's budget. HOWEVER, the governor now admits that the appropriations for next year will almost cer- tainly total more than $106j million. 0 1974.80 Proof. Tequilo. Baron Distillers Import co. New York. New.York.
