Today's' march will replace the one scheduled for last Friday that was postponed due to bad weather. The day after In a Speech 100 lecture entitled "Limits of Communi- cations Effects," associate professor and a loser in last night's Fourth Ward race William Colburn warned stu- dents that a speech can effect listeners in unexpected ways. "We must ask ourselves what prevents us from being successful in communication," he said. Amid guf- faws from the audience, Colburn alluded to his unex- pected defeat, "I spent a lot of time trying to convince Fourth Ward voters into accepting my views, but now I realize that a tremendous amount of people don't share them." Concluding the class early, Colburn cautioned, "Never show disrespect for other people's views." HRP celebrates As the HRP victory celebration continued into its second day yesterday, the party's Second Ward winner, Kathy Kozachenko, commented on Monday night's elec- tion results. Kozachenko, who campaigned openly as a lesbian, said "This victory is significant because for the first time in this country, an openly gay person has been elected to City Council. Ten years ago, being open- ly gay would've meant automatic defeat. We've picked up a good deal of votes we haven't had before and our victories have proven that this is just a beginning- we'll be around for a long time to stay."

U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger and French Foreign Minister Michel Jo- bert exchanged charges of bad faith. Wash- ington accused the French of willfully im- peding U. S. policies, and Parish claimed the United States was trying to set the members ofethe European Common Mar- ket against each other. IN RECENT weeks, Pompidou - the real architect of French foreign policy - acted to tone down the dispute. But he warned nt his last Cabinet meeting March 27 that he would reject U. S. attempts to control European policy. Relations with the United States and the Common Market are two of the issues dividing the Gaullists and their leftist op- ponents, and - once the period of mourn- ing is over - are sure to be injected into the election campaign. ping the French of difficult times e had cited worries about the the country, about relations with European neighbors and about 's wider role in the world.

Note reports' Cinin knew about fake kidnapers to free Hearst SAN FRANCISCO W)-The exact time and place of Patricia Hearst's release will be disclosed within 78 hours, a communique bearing the signature of the Symbionese Liber- ation Army (SLA) said last night. The communique was received late yesterday by a biweekly un- derground newspaper, the Phoe- nix. Also enclosed was what looked like half of the kidnaped news- paper heiress' driver's license. The newspaper said it had confirmed the authenticity of the partial li- cense which was Ms. Hearst's cor- rect birth date and her signature. The newspaper said it had re- ceived the communique wrapped in a dozen long-stem roses, which were delivered by a local florist. "IF IT'S TRUE we're delighted," said a statement released by mil- lionaire Randolph H e a r s t, Ms. Heart's father. "It sounds like their (SLA's) communique. I wish to believe it." There was no way to confirm that the communique was authen- tic, but it followed the pattern and style of previous SLA communica- tions. - -s w I .. mA in. . , v v! .T iterature, WASHINGTON {P) - Dwight charged Chapin was kept informed about when he fake political literature that Don- Segretti1 ald Segretti distributed in the 1972 that he n campaign and knew what Segretti fornia la was being paid, witnesses testified candidat yesterday.

THE STATEMENT said new sub- poenas may be issued for those materials. The White House earlier declined to say that President Nixon turned over to Jaworski last Friday all the materials the prosecutor had sought in a March 15 subpoena. The special prosecutor's office said that material is being ex- amined now. BUT THE SPOKESMAN said that aside from the March 15 sub- poena, other items still are sought from the White House. "We have made and will make requests for materials whenever we have sufficient cause to be- lieve that they are relevant to the various investigations that fall un- der our mandate, which includes a number of areas other than the main Watergate case," the spokes- man said. "A number of such re- quests are outstanding." In other Watergate-related mat- ters, the Senate Watergate com- mittee made a final plea yesterday to the U. S. Court of Appeals for access to five presidential tape re- cordings. SAMUEL DASH, the committee's chief counsel, promised the court that if the panel is given copies of the tapes it will submit to a pro- tective order preventing their pub- lic release.

With virtually no pressing busi- ness before Council last night, much of the meeting was far more relaxed than the meetings in re- ,cent weeks, although the opening moments were a little tense.. Gay people packed the Council chambers, both to thank the two outgoing HRP Council members, Jerry DeGrieck and Nancy Wech- sler, for their service, and to gloat over the defeat of William Colburn. A SUCCESSION of gay speakers stepped up to the microphone to congratulate Wechsler and De- Grieck and also to condemn Col- burn one last time before his re- tirement. James Toy told the two HRP members, "I wish you peace and love." Subsequently the pair was presented with a cake which was decorated with the words: "Rum- ors of our death (HRP's) are pre- mature." Another man, who announced himself as Diana Ross of Holly- wood, presented Wechsler and De- Grieck with the award for "best councilpeople," in the "First Aca- demy Awards of City Council." HRP and the gay people also pre- sented Colburn with a cake, and the icing on his read, "Good-bye Clyde-Love, Commies and Fag- gots," in response to a Republi- can who allegedly said election night, "The hippies and faggots are taking over the city." AS THE CAKE was presented, the speaker told Colburn, "this one's for you golden boy, just to let you know you're not forgotten." While the gay people and the IIRP members gloated, the Repub- licans were visibly disconcerted. See CITY, Page 2 to be located at the intersection of Eseh chides HEW By BARBARA CORNELL Congressman Marvin Esch yes- terday lashed out what he called "inexcusable bureaucratic bungl- ing" by the Department of Health, Education and Welfare (HEW) in handling a scholarship program to help needy students become doc- tors, dentists, nurses, and other heailth specialists. The program, enacted by Con- gress more than 17 months ago, was designed to help supply health workers to over 5,000 communities listed by the Health Services and Mental Health Administration as having no health care services. ESCH CHARGED t h a t HEW's Office of Health Manpower De- velopment (OHMD), which is im- plementing the program, has been working at an unreasonably slow rate which has virtually elimi- nated the program. James Kissinger, a spokesman for the OHMD, said yesterday he was "as embarrassed as anyone" about the length of time the office spent in getting the program into action. Kissinger said Manpower was given two alternatives, to wait un- til next year, or to try to work under pressure to give as many scholarships as possible this year, "I guess we overestimated our- selves," he admitted. AS A RESULT of the agency's slowness, students who accepted grants through the program this year will serve a year after gradu- ation to pay off only two and a half months of aid. The scholarship p r o g r a m, as passed by Congress, specifies that eligible students receiveaid in monthly installments to6 cover the costs of tuition, books, school sup- plies, and medical expenses. The stipend was set at $600 per month, a rate comparable to pay and al- lowances of armed forces second lieutenant or ensign.
