Wernette said it is possible that the surge in the price of gold "is the greatest international speculative move" since the tulip bulb incident. "This phenomenon does not represent loss of confidence in the dollar," he said . . . "The strength of the American economy justifies confidence."

In an open letter published in the weekly news magazine in Paris L'Express, Salinger said: "You could thereby stress that in your opinion the best remedy would be to give the American people a chance to be heard - by their votes. "No party would have an advantage over the other. The Democrats today are as unprepared as the Republicans for an election." "If you choose to stand again you could, in all honor, call on the American people to confirm the support that you think you still merit." Groucho grouchy Comedian Groucho Marx has obtained a court order holding up publication of a new book because the au- thor failed to clean up his pungent quotes. The book, "The Marx Bros. Scrapbook", was written by Richard Anobile from hours of taped conversations with the 83-year-old comedian over several months. In the suit Marx said the tapes contained a number of "colloquial- isms . . . inappropriate for transcription." He said he had assumed that Anobile would substitute other words each time he used the Anglo-Saxon verb and participle for sexual intercourse. The book is also liberally sprink- led with references to people as "S.O.B.'s" and "fags." Dope note Police arrested three men and recovered illicit drugs with a street value of over one million dollars yesterday when they raided a Bronx apartment on a landlord's tip. Two officers, summoned to the building by the land- lord who said "he thought something funny was going on," burst into the apartment and found eight pounds of cocaine, police said. Police put the total value of the drugs at 1.75 million dollars. Agnew to be disbarred? Norman Ramsey, president of the Maryland State Bar Association, refused to comment yesterday in Baltimore on a published report that the group intends to seek dis- barment of former Vice President Spiro Agnew. The Bal- timore News American quoted a source within the as- sociation as saying that the group would file disbar- ment proceedings against Agnew within a few days. "I have absolutely no comment," Ramsey said. Evi- dence presented by the Justice Department against Agnew listed overt acts allegedly committed in Balti- more County, where Agnew was county executive. Ag- new is registered to vote in that county and owns a home there.

No Sunday Driving The Dutch prepared yesterday for their second suc- cessive Sunday without the family car - and this Sun- day foreign motorists are included in the ban on pleasure driving in Hague. The government axed Sunday driving toall but special permit holders in a bid to save gaso- line after' an oil boycott of Holland by Arab countries. Last Sunday people brought -out their bicycles, horses and carriages, motorbikes, and even roller-skates. Now, police said, they were extending the ban to foreign mo- torists because children tended to regard the empty highways as natural playgrounds for roller-skating, games and even picknicking.

The Sunday MWgizine features a description of the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat in women's orofessional football - as seen through the manic eyes stumbles ast llini By BOB McGINN It wasn't convincing, it wasn't impressive, and it certainly wasn't "cute", but Michigan's 21-6 bludgeoning of Illinois yes- terday in Michigan Stadium was one very important thing-- a win. And with it, Schembechler's Wolverines kept their record unsullied in their relentless bid for a Big Ten championship and a national title. MICHIGAN STAYED even with despised Ohio State, a 35-0 victor over Michigan State, despite the fact that it fumbled the football away four times and was never really able to dominate a Fighting Illini team that entered the fray with a 200 rally 0 . in1 Lansing to impeach President LANSING (UPI) - More than 200 protesters, including two Demo- cratic state representatives and a Unitarian minister, staged an "Im- peach Nixon" rally yesterday on the steps of the state Capitol. Most of those participating in the event were young persons, pri- marily students from nearby Mich- igan State University. However, there were some middle-aged and elderly demonstrators as well. "I WANT HIM out of here. I don't care how it's done," said Harold Rundell, a 71-year-old re- tiree from suburban Haslett. Keynote speaker was the Rev. Robert Green, pastor of an East Lansing Unitarian church. Others who took the podium included State Representatives Perry Bul- lard (D-Ann Arbor) and L y n n Johndahl (D-East Lansing) and Al Dutzy of the local United A u t o Workers Community Action Pro- gram. All the speakers accused Nixon of committing impeachable crim- es and "sabotaging the democratic process." "RICHARD NIXON is guilty, period," Johndahl declared after reciting a list of the President's alleged offenses. "There are many things we can do to bring about his impeach- ment, now that we have started," said Bullard. "The king must go." Organizers distributed petitions calling for Nixon's impeachment and said that when signed they will be sent to U.S. Rep. Charles Cham- berlain (R-Mich.) whose district includes the Lansing area.

In fact, the fourth - ranked Maize and Blue had to come from behind for the first time in their nine starts to stamp out the up- set dreams of the stubborn visitors. BUT COME from behind they did, however halting and impre- cise their efforts may have been. "Remember one thing, guys," a relieved Schembechler told report- ers afterward, "we won the foot- ball game, and they didn't. That's all that really counts." Many felt that the Illini would prove to be the same stiffs much of the Big Ten has grown to be, but Schembechler's traditional storm warnings were, for once, on target.- IN THE end Michigan needed a fluke 20-yard ramble by tight end Paul Seal with a Dennis Franklin fumble to cinch the verdict, and that didn't come until midway into the fourth period. Until then Coach Bob Black- man's crew was very much in the ball game, a fact the proud Black- man was quick to point out. "The last score by Seal took the heart out of my team," he offered, "but we were in it until then. We're awfully disappointed, be- cause a lot of our guys played great games." AFTER A scoreless first quar- ter in which a runaway Irish Set- ter pranced up and down the grid- iron for a full three minutes to merit the loudest roar of the frig- id afternoon, the Illini began the game's first sustained drive. Mixing the quick-opening bolts of halfbacks George Uremovich and Lonnie Perrin and a delay- ing pass to fullback Steve Greene, junior quarterback Jeff Hollenbach marched his team 57 yards in ten plays. Two third down passes to tight end Doug Kleber went awry, so soccer - style placekicker Dan Bea- ver drilled a 41-yard field goal, putting the Wolverines on the short end for the initial time this au- tumn. MICHIGAN'S sluggish offense again failed to mount any kind of attack and Illinois took over on its own 38.

Rule change threatens Meir O-s Democrats ' new' image truce plan, Yoglurt sales soar: Age-old gfood product earns modern profits By J. FRALEY, JR. Proposed changes in nationwide rules may jeopardize the image of the Democratic Party-the party that in 1972 proclaimed itself "new" and "grass roots" and "of the people." The Democratic National Com- mittee is driving to abolish the "quota system" of delegate renre- sentationaat its conventions. This system last year insured propor- tional representation of minorities, and was a major contributing force to the emergence of the "new coalition" of women and blacks that nominated Sen. George Mc- Govern for president. THE QUOTA system was based' on the makeup of party member- ship-i.e. 11 per cent black mem- bership would mean 11 per cent black delegates. Under the pro- posed changes the party will en- courage minority representation through an affirmative action pro- gram, with each state and local delegation being required to pro- duce evidence that its delegate selection process was open. Explains Delegate Selection Com- mission staff member Doris Hard- esty: "Last year the quota was suggested. This time we'll say (to state party chapters), 'Did you implement a plan to give an op- portunity for everyone?' If the method is fair, then the results will stand on themselves." Another change being considered by the DNC is elimination of win- ner-take-all primaries, replacing them with proportional allocation of delegates based on candidate preference--providing a candidate secures at least 10 per cent of the vote. A THIRD proposed change is abolition of "automatic delegates" accompanying a state delegation to the national convention. This will eliminate governors, state legislatorsand other office holders who in the past have been ad- mitted into the national conven- tion as ex officio delegates. The new rules will be adopted or rejected when the DNC meets in February or March of next year. LAST YEAR was the first time the party operated under a quota system for minority representa- tion. The quota resulted in the inclusion of an unprecedented number of women and blacks in the national convention, and cul- minated in McGovern's nomina- tion. After the McGovern forces' re- sounding defeat at the polls last Noveniber, however, the party is ". they copped out on real representation .of minorities." -City Councilwoman Carol Jones up for grabs - with traditional Democrats struggling to regain control. Reaction of local politicians to the proposed rule changes was generally favorable, though some voiced reservations. LAIRD HARRIS, city Democratic Party chairman, said he had fear- ed the proposed rules would be "a much larger step backward" than they actually are. "There is not much difference between the wording of the new rules and old rules," said Harris. Harris expressed confidence that the new rules would not counter- act changes made in the party over the past few years. "Even if all the McGovern re- forms were wiped out," he said, "we would never have gone back to the '68 situation. I'll make a prediction: Quotas and other things will not remain an issue. The party will find other things to fight about." CITY COUNCILWOMAN Carol Jones (D-Second Ward) disagreed. "The problem with the changes is that they copped out on real rep- resentation of minorities," she said. "They tried to make changes that are a kind of backlash ef- fect," said Jones. She said she fears a return by the party to pre- 1972 practices. She called the party's progress toward wider representation of blacks and women "a snail's pace," and said she was on the whole "disappointed" with the proposed new rules. See NEW, Page 2 noes ior long eae By The Associated Press Premier Golda Meir, after hesi- tating for a day to clear up Israeli misgivings, accepted U.S. Secre- tary of State Henry Kissinger's truce plan yesterday. She s a i d Israel will sign it today in t h e hope the plan will lead t9 per- manent peace in the Middle East. With Egyptian acceptance al- ready disclosed in Cairo's semi-of- ficial press, Meir's final okay low- ered the last apparent barrier to a formal signing ceremony by Is- raeli and Egyptian representatives. SYRIA, THE third major coin- batant in the war that started Oct. 6, had not accepted the p an, which goes farther than UN cease- fire resolutions. A UN spokesperson in Cairo said the signing ceremony was sched- uled for 3 p.m. today - 8 a.m. EST - on the Cairo-Suez high-1 way about 60 miles from the Egyp- tian capital. Meir said Israel will be represented by Maj. Gen. Aha- ron Yariv, one of her top aide:. The Egyptian representative was not immediately announced.

Even though half the people in this country still have never tasted yoghurt, it has been accorded the ultimate sign of acceptance by the giants of mass merchandising. They are offering their private label brands to compete with the better- known advertised brands such as Danon and Light & Lively.
