ATTORNEY William KunstleJ,
who defended the Chicago Seven,
said he thought Sachtjen should
have given Armstrong a shorter
sentence.
"I know it was hard for him, and
if he had taken more time I don't
think he could have done it,
Kunstler said.
"I think he missed i great op-

WASHINGTON (P) - F o r m e r
Nixon campaign manager Clark
MacGregor testified yesterday, he
was used and deceived in the Wat-
ergate affair and said the Presi-
dent should submit to questioning
by the Senate Watergate commit-
tee's two ranking members.
In a separate statement, S e n .
Barry Goldwater, (R-Ariz.), said
an apearance by Nixon before the
full Watergate commiu:e may cf
fer the President the only way out
of problems of credibility that now
beseige him.
A third formula was offered by
Sen. Lowell Weicker, (R-Conn.),
who suggested the President' be
asked to invite the entire panel to
the White 'House and submit to
complete questioning.
WEICKER SAID that the. corn-
mittee will vote on his proposal at
its next executive session and that
most Watergate committee mni
bers have greeted the idea enthus-
iastically.
Weicker said no oath should be
required of the President, but in-
sisted that a transcript of the pr:)-
posed session be made public..
Testifyiing before th, commit-
tee, MacGregor, a former Minne-
sota congressman ad White House
aide, said he,believes Nixon migllt
be willing to submit to questions
put informally by We -gate Chair-
man Sam Ervin Jr., (D-N.C.), and
Vice Chairman Howard B a k e r
Jr., (R-Tenn.).
MacGREGOR TOLD newsmen he
had not checked his idea with
Nixon before offering it to the
* committee.
In his testimony, MacGregor dis-
puted parts of the testimon,' of two
previous witnesses and said of his'
campaign experiences:

Next Week: JOHN FORD FESTIVAL
WASHINGTON (P) - Vice Presi-
:ent-designate Gerald Ford denied
at his confirmation hearings yes-
terday any wrongdoing in the hand-
ling of $11,500 in campaign funds
which he did not report to t h e
House.
Itemizing each of the five checks
involved, Ford said that to the best
:f his knowledge they were report-;
ed by the donors in proper public
documents and subsequently re-
ported by the Republican Congres-
sional Campaign Committee as re-
quired by law.
The funds involved were contri-
buted to Ford in 1970 and chan-
neled to the Republican Congres-
sional Campaign Committee which
then sent a similar amount to the
Michigan congressman'sdistrict.
ALTHOUGH FORD did not re-
port the contributions in his per-
sonal statement of campaign fin-
ances filed with the House, he
said they weretalltproperly re-
corded in other places.
Ford also offered himself as a
peacemaker and mediator in al
crisis-ridden government saying, "I
can be a helpful bridge ,between
the executive and the legislative
branch."
Ford called the 5th congres-
sional district of Michigan, which
has elected him to Congress 13
times, "a moderate electorate, and
my own views are not as conserva-
tive as might have been implied.
"I CONSIDER myself a moder-
ate certainly on domestic affairs,"
Ford said, "a conservative on fis-
cal affairs and an internationalist
on foreign policy."
In regard to the 1970 campaign
funds, Ford said he got more mon-
ey than he feeded and sent it to
the GOP committee' to distribute to
others. He said he sometimes told
donors to send money directly to
the House GOP campaign commit-
tee rather than to his campaign.
"Historically, a person in thvd
leadership capacity does get con-
tributions . . . that are way above
our needs for campaigns," said
Ford, the House minority leade".
FORD SAID there was no under-
standing between him and the
"I believe in this case -here is
no violation of the laws whatso-
ever," Ford said.
Ford also denied that the money
he got from the GOP committee
exceeded the limit set by Michigan
law. Ford said the law requires1
that no candidate may spend more
than $10,500 on his own behalf. He
said some money went to commit-
tees other than to the Ford forj
Congress Committee, of which he
was treasurer.
"LATE IN the campaign several
other committees had been estab-
lished on my behalf," Ford said.'

A LUTA CONTINUA
Mozambique, 1971. Directed by Robert Van Lierop; photographed by Robert Fletcher. 32 minutes,
color. English language narration.A
"A LUTA CONTINUA is unquestionably the best available film on the African liberation struggle .
(it) not only portrays the texture and quality of life in free Mozambique with a sensitive and sympa-
thetic camera eye, but it also sets this portrait within an historical and political context."
-Southern African Magazine
TAUW
Senegal, 1970. Directed by Ousmane Sembene. 26 minutes, color. Wolof with English subtitles.
Directed by Ousmone Sembene, Africa's best-known film-maker, "Tauw" focuses on the anomie and
despair caused by Senegal's high rate of unemployment, and the generational clash, in which the old
still cling to Islam, polygamy, and paternal dictatorship, while the young' listen to rock, steal without
guilt, and grapple with man and womanhood in a rapidly changing society.
