CAMPBELL, Ky. - Piles of carcasses littered the ground a n d frost-winged blackbirds hung grotesquely from the trees yesterday following a massive bird kill carried out by the Army on this sprawling Ken- tucky-Tennessee border post. A run by Huey helicopters spraying the chemical tergitol over the roost was followed by a man-made bath of 70,000 gal- lons of water which formed icicles over a section of the birds' resting places. "THERE WERE a significant number of birds killed," said Lt. Col. John Klose, information officer for the post, although only a portion of the entire 17.5 million birds was sprayed. The tergitol solution, coupled with the chilly bath, stripped the birds' feathers of their pro- tective oils, leaving them at the mercy of the weather as temperatures dipped into the 20s. U.S. Wildlife Resources offi- cials wearing yellow rubber suits began gathering data on the bird kill. MEANWHILE, injured birds fluttered helplessly about the area. An Army spokesman said they would eventually die. The birds, branded a health hazard by local officials, were loused with water by snorkle ,ire trucks. When Army Secretary Howard Callaway authorized the kill this week, he called the birds health hazards to people and animals, potential hazards to aviation and damaging to agri- culture crops in surrounding areas. The birds have been blamed for the spread of his- toplasmosis, a human lung ail- ment. The Army partly attributed the low kill ratio to the fact that six acres of the roosting area were not watered down as heavily as the others. However, one Army official said films of the helicopter runs showed that flocks of birds flew from the roost at each helicopter pass.

The Army just began a program to exterminate the birds in the area, after winning a long court battle with birdwatchers and other fowl lovers.

Sunday: 12 p.m.7- p.m. Try Daily C lassifieds WASHINGTON (1P) - Betty Ford's mail at the White House is running 3 to 1 against her outspoken support of passage of the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) to the Constitution to end sex discrimination. Press Secretary, Sheila Weid- enfeld, said yesterday that mail the White House has counted so far shows 360 in praise of Ford's efforts and 1,128 against. THE FIRST LADY'S staff was not at all reluctant to announce the figures and Ford was re- ported unperturbed by the re- action. "She expected it," said Weidenfeld. Mrs. Ford, visiting with wives of the U.S. Chamber of Com- merce directors at Blair House, explained to a reporter her as- sessment of the mail count: "It's those who are against (ERA) who are doing the writ- ing . . . those who are for it sit back and say 'good for her- push on." "personalized and distinctive" JERRY ERICKSON BILL STEVE DURIS FORD has been making tele- phone calls and writing to legis- lators in several states where ERA has come up for action re- cently, including Illinois, Mis- souri, North Dakota,, Arizona and Nevada. Thirty-four of the 38 states needed have ratified the amendment. She says she plans to continue her personal effort despite the setback of votes in states such as Arizona, Nevada and Utah. Her efforts for ERA on her own have inspired letters to the editors of newspapers around the country, have sparked some editorials and has brought mail to the White House from around the country. Some of the sentiments from the letters to Ford follow: "It is so wonderful to have a First Lady who is concerned about people and not just about clothes or decorating or trees- these are fine but human dignity and freedom concern me more." ad~-an~x-aur BARBER SHOP HOURS: Tues.-Sat.: 8:30-5:30 Wed.: 11:00-8:00 806 South State Street Ann Arbor, Michigan Phone: 668-8669 t ~there's thru \ lsife African Students' Association Lecture Series Panel Discussion on "MIX OF STRATEGIC ALTERNATIVES TO DEVELOPMENT PLAN- NING IN THE SAHELIAN COUNTRIES" DATE: FRI., Feb. 21, 1975 TIME: 8 p.m. PLACE: Modern Language Bldg., Lecture Rm. 1 RENT ME 5A DAY 10C A MILE New VW Super Beetles Pickup and Delivery Available SATISFACTION GUARANTEED OR A NEW PAIR FREE LEVI'S PROMISE: Superior quality, better fit, and honest value.
