" - Princess can't cook In an exclusive British Broadcasting Company (BBC) interview last night Princess Anne told reporters she can make breakfast and sew buttons, but doesn't think she can "make a consistantly good cook." The princess denied she was "boisterous, bossy or moody" but ad- mitted to being "an old-fashioned girl" and somewhat "square." Her husband-to-be, Lt. Mark Phillips, was asked if it took courage to propose to a princess. "You've got to be brave to propose to anybody," he said grinning. ! Juicers rejoice!

RPP rn Tribal Funding, an organization charged with allo- cating revenue sharing funds for a variety of youth services, has come under fire from several city of- ficials for its decision to rent office space from the Rainbow People's Party. The officials, primarily Republican City Council members, charge that as a result of overlapping membership, the organizations are in effect using the money to rent office space from themselves. A tri-partisan council subcommittee reviewing the matter, however, has found nothing illegal about the arrangement although it has criticized the groups for exercising bad judgement in making the deal. THE SUBCOMMITTEE has temporarily cut off arrangement stirs conflict funding to the organization until several safeguards can be written into the contract, delineating itemized expenditures. Under the revenue sharing program adopted by council last March Tribal Funding received nearly $18,000 to finance youth services including a new community ballroom, an indoor concert series, a food cooperative and the Psychedelic Rangers. To date the organization has received only $1,379 about half of which has been spent for office space in an RPP owned building at 1510 Hill St., known as the First Zenta Church. RPP MEMBER FRANK Bach said Tribal Funding has rented offices from RPP since last August only because no other facilities were available. Although many RPP members are involved in Tribal Funding activities, Bach pointed out only two party members serve on the nine-person board of directors. Asst. City Administrator Michael Rogers, who ov- ersees the revenue sharing program, has found noth- ing legally wrong with Tribal Funding's action. "There has been a good faith effort on their part to perform on the contract," he said. Rogers added that he believes the organization could not find other office space in the city. NONETHELESS, the council committee has recom- President anoitherM mended that new guidelines be put in Tribal Fund- ing's contract to guarantee the federal funds will not be misspent. These guidelines will be presented to council in several weeks but are not presently in final form. Subcommitte member William Colburn (R-Third Ward) stressed that after two meetings with Tribal Funding representatives he found the group had not violated the contracts, although it "could have used better judgment." He added that "some individuals on council" take the position that the organization's actions consti- tute grounds to void the agreement. See RPP, Page 2 reports Fatergate recording mi, 0 WASHINGTON (Reuter) -President Nixon disclosed yesterday that he is unable to find a recorded memoran- dum he made of a conversa- tion with former White House Counsel John Dean, concern- ing a meeting the two men held last April 15. The admission of the miss- ing tape, the third piece of missing Watergate evidence, was made personally by the President in a written state- ment to reporters yesterday and by Fred Buzhardt, White House attorney, in testimony before Judge John Sirica. At the same time Nixon an- nounced he would give the Judge other material, including dictation belts on which he personally re- corded his notes of conversations with Watergate-related figures and written notes he took during some of his meetings. The new missing tape is a per- sonal dictation the President made about his impressions of his April 15 meeting with Dean. According to Dean, Nixon told him on April 15 that he had been joking when he referred on an= ear- lier occasion to the possibility of raising one million dollars to buy the silence of the convicted Water- gate burglars. SIRICA WAS informed last week that the regular White House tap- ing system, also failed to record that April 15 conversation. White House aides say the tape had run out earlier in the day. They also asserted that there was no tape of a telephone conver- sation between the President and former Attorney2GeneralbJohn Mitchell on June 20, 1972, because Nixon used a phone that was not connected to the recording system. Presidential Spokesman Ronald Ziegler openly acknowledged that the credibility of the White House might have been further strained by yesterday's admission. "I CAN SEE a dramatic news lead, something else is missing," he said, but he insisted that the President's decision to give Judge Sirica other recordings and ma- terial would end the Watergate affair once and for all. The President said he would provide thescourt with: -The portion of a dictation belt containing his recollections of his unrecorded conversation with Mit- chell; THE PORTION of the'dictation belt on which he recorded his re- collections of meetings with Dean on March 21 last - meetings at which, he has saidrpreviously, he learned for the first time of the extent of the Watergate affair and its subsequent cover-up; -Written notes he made during' his meeting with Dean on April 15 and placed in his personal files; and -All other materials covered by court orders. HE AGREED THAT a group of court-approved experts employing the most advanced technological methods should examine all tapes for any evidence of alteration to them. In related action, a House of Representatives judiciary subcom- mittee yesterday approved legis- lation to create a court-appointed special Watergate prosecutor to- tally independent of President Nix- on. The bill would authorize a panel of three judges of the U. S.

CEASE-FIRE JEOPARDIZED: Israeli troops dismantle U.N.,, roadblock to Suez By BILL HEENAN Like the rest of the nation, the University community will be ask- ed to tighten its belt and button its sweater this winter in an effort to conserve the ever dwindling supply of power resources. That appeal was formally made by the University's Energy Con- servation Task Force yesterday which met to set down guidelines on energy use. Appointed by Pres- ident Robben Fleming last month to deal with the impending energy crisis, the task force yesterday decided to: -DECREASE CAMPUS r o o m temperature to 65-68 degres, ex- cept in University Hospital; -Uniformly reduce unnecessary hallway and corridor lighting; and, -Enlist public support and par- ticipation for conservation efforts. THE TASK FORCE was told that the lowering of temperatures in University buildings had already been tried and further experi- mentation with the plan would be continued. According to Donald Wendel, plant department director, the deans of the schools of education and natural resources have agreed to have their buildings used as energy guinea pigs over the Thanksgiving vacation. WENDEL SAID that experts will be able to estimate energy sav- ings by shutting off the air han- dling systems in the two buildings. He explained that most buildings are steam heated by both peri- meter radiation - radiators a n d heated overhead exhaust vents. 'NO MORE HA VOC' By cutting off the overhead vents, energy is saved by eliminat- ing heat necessary to warm the fresh air. Last weekend, the vents wazre shut off in both North Hall and the Administration Building. Wen- del reported that the effects on the Administration Building were minimal although employes com- plained about being "zapped" by unusually heavy static electricity. NORTH HALL, on the other hand, experienced a severe drop in temperature down to 58 degres. Wendel attributed the drop to the building's "ancient leaky steam radiators." Wendel stressed, however, that a reduction in heating on a cam- pus-wide basis would be ,an enor- mous undertaking. "It will take a tremendous amount of man-days to dismantle and readjust heating registers in every room in some 200-odd Uni versity buildings," he commented. He predicted the operation might take all winter. ASSISTANT HOUSING Director Claude Orr was charged with the task of heading up the campaign to inform dorm residents on ways to save power. In a pamphlet slated for distri- bution to dorm staff members, Orr recommends students close win- ows, maintain minimum lighting and take shorter showers to help the conservation effort. THE TASK FORCE further an- nounced that it was studying the possibility of reducing the speed limits of University vehicles. In See OFFICIALS, Page 8 (Reuter) - The shaky Mideast cease-fire appeared shakier than ever last night as Israeli troops dismantled a United-Nations road- block outside the town of Suez following a confrontation with U.N. forces. The incident could delay the first prisoner-of-war exchanges stipu- lated under the six-point agree- ment signed by Egypt and Israel Sunday. THE CONFRONTATION came on a day when representatives of several different countries held a series of meetings on the issue of peace in the Middle East. An Israeli military communique said Israeli soldiers took down the roadblock at the western entrance to the Egyptian town of Suez, said by Israel to be completely sur- rounded by its forces. They acted when U.N. forces, who had erected the roadblock after dusk, turned down an Israeli request to remove it, the com- munique said. There was no im- mediate indication if force was Checkmate agrees to boycott Farah pants used during the incident. THIS FIRST SERIOUS snag fol- lowing Sunday's ceasefire sign- ing came after Israeli and Egyp- tian officers met on the Suez-Cairo road at kilometer 101 to discuss implementation of the agreements. Authoritative sources in Tel Aviv said the meeting ended in dead-, lock after two-and-a-half hours. The sources said the two sides could not agree on how to interpret the agreement over the question of the hand-over of Israeli check- poinnts to the U.N. force. In Cairo, U.N. spokesman Rudolf Stajduhar said before last night's incident at Suez that the two sides would meet againtomorrow at the request of one of them-though he declined to specify which one. UNDER THE agreement, Israel's handing over of the checkpoints at kilometer 101 and at Suez were necessary preliminaries to the P.O.W. exchange which the Red Cross is waiting to arrange. Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir, in London for a weekend meeting of the Socialist Interna- tional, pledged yesterday that Is- rael would do everything possible to make the cease-fire work. She demanded swift action, how- ever, on the part of the Syrians in Problems plague By DAN BLUGARMAN Dave Horning, owner of Check- mate Clothes announced yesterday that his store will not purchase any more Farah slacks until that com- pany's unionization problems are settled. The decision was seen as a vic- tory for the Farah Strike Support Committee which has been picket- ing several local clothing stores incl'iding Checkmate. the workers' effort to unionize the company. According to Horning, the store had stopped buying Farah products last year in response to student requests. This fall, the Farah line was re-ordered on the assumption that the issue was no longer a con- troversial one. PICKETERS SAY they will con- tinue to march outside of Fiegel's By CINDY HILL Perhaps the venerable halls of Hill Auditorium-which have seen Van Cliburn, Leonard Bernstein and innumerable concerts and bal- let companies-were never meant to see the era of the Moody Blues, B.B. King or Judy Collins. In any case, University officials have decided the building was cer- tainly not meant to tolerate the smoke-both of tobacco and other The new guidelines stipulate that UAC-Daystar may not invite any musical group or individual who is likely to draw crowds that may create such disturbances. The agreement pertains to not only Hill Auditorium, but Crisler Arena and Power Center as well. UNFORTUNATELY, the decree puts the responsibility for the audience on UAC-Daystar, and as Daystar right in the middle." University Chief Financial Offi- cer Wilbur Pierpont did not know how the organization could make this determination either, except perhaps by reading reports from other campuses. "THAT'S THEIR problem, that's their business," said Pierpont. It's not the first time UAC-Day- star has faced the prospect of hav-
