SLA HEIST:
Saxbe calls Hearst
a common criminal

namues new
government
LAGOS, Nigeria (R) - Army
Strong-man Lt. Col. Seyni Koun-
tie named a 12-man "provision-
al" military council today to
rule the drought-stricken West
African republic of Niger.
Kountie, who seized power
Monday,) was named president
of the council which was an-
nounced in broadcasts from the
capital on Niamey radio moni-
tored in Lagos.
The army toppled the 15-year-
old regime of President Hamani
Diori, 57, who ruled the land-
locked former French colony
since independence in 1960.
NIGERIA'S ambassador to Ni-
ger, Sanni Kantagora, returned
to Lagos in-a military aircraft to
confirm the death of Diori's wife,
Aissa, who was shot to death in
the overthrow.
Kantagora, who returned with
Niger's ambassador to Nigeria,
Ibrahim Loutou, said the death of
Ms. Diori, the mother of four
sons and two daughters, was
"accidental." He gave no further
details.
Kantagora and Loutou said
they were returning to Lagos to
report on the coup to Gen. Ya-
kubu Gowon, the military ruler
of .Nigeria.
Gowon, a close personal friend
of Diori's, is also chairman of
the Organization of African Un-
ity.
GANTAGORA told the press at
Ikeja airport outside Lagos that
Diori was alive, under house ar-
rest and being attended by his
aide de camp and two servants.
He said Niamey, the capital,
was calm.
The radio broadcast said the
council was dominated by junior
officers, including captains and
lieutenants of Niger's 2,500-man
army.
Kountie, a 42-year-old French-
trained soldier, was named chief
of staff of the army by Diori in
1973.
Radio Niamey continued to 'read
scores of letters lavishly prais-
ing the army takeover.
THE BROADCASTS said funer-
al services were held Tuesday
for two soldiers killed during the
coup.
Government offices were oper-
ating normally and stores were
open, the broadcasts said.
The radio announced that 37
political prisoners had been re-
leased. Special measures havej
been taken to avoid vandalism
in the capital, the radio said,
and a curfew from 7:30 p.m. to
6 a.m. Is still in force.

KENT STATE:
Supreme Court rules

WASHINGTON, (Reuter) -
Attorney General William Saxbe
yesterday called kidnap victim
Patricia Hearst a common crim-
inal for her role in a San Fran-
cisco bank holdup.
He told a press conference,
"It would appear to me she was
not a reluctant participant in this
robbery."
Hearst was photographed -
along with one male and three
other female thieves, all alleged
members of the group which
claims to have kidnapped the
publishing heiress, the Symbio-
nese Liberation Army (SLA) --
carrying an automatic rifle dur-
ing the bank heist in San Fran-
cisco on Monday.
"The entire group we are talk-
ing about are common crimi-
nals," Saxbe said.
He said that if the SLA hideout
were found, the Federal Bureau
of Investigation would be justi-
fied in breaking into it.
However, Patricia Hearst's fi-
ance says he believes the Sym-
bionese Liberation Army contriv-
ed the bank holdup. Steven Weed,
26, told reporters Tuesday that
Monday's bank heist was de-
signed "to get people to believe
she ishconverted without having
to let her go."
He also said he believed
Hearst "is being humiliated at
the hands of a group of people
who are determined not to let
her get out of this alive."
Meanwhile, John Kelly, who
heads the San Francisco FBI
office, said the SLA could have
forced Hearst to participate in
the robbery by threatening to
harm her or her family.
"She may have been under all
kinds of duress," he said. "They

could have said they were going
to try to kidnap her sister or
something. Who knows what they
told her?"
Initial reports following the
robbery - in which two people
were wounded-suggested. Hearst
was coerced into participating by
the SLA, which kidnaped her
from her Berkeley apartment
more than two months ago..
The last communication from
the SLA to Hearst's.father, pub-
lisher Randolph Hearst -receiv-
ed two weeks ago. yesterday --
included a tape recording in
which Hearst renounced her par-
ents and declared allegiance to
the SLA.
Also included was a photo-
graph of Hearst dressed in fa-
tigues, carrying an automatic
weapon and standing in front of
a huge SLA flag.
The attorney general said he
based his belief that Hearst vol-
untarily took part in the robbery
on testimony of witnesses in the
bank, the photos of the holdup
and reports from the FBI.
"There are two crimes in-
volved here," Saxbe said, "A
kidnaping - if it was a kidnap-
ing - and a bank robbery. One
does not wash out the .other."

WASHINGTON, (Reuter) -
The Supreme Court ruled yester-
day that lower federal courts
were wrong to dismiss suits
brought on behalf of three Kent
State University students slain
by Ohio National Guardsmen
during a 1970 anti-war demon-
stration.
The eight justices participating
in yesterday's decision ruled
unafiimously that the represen-
tatives of the dead students
should have been granted a hear-
ing.
Justice, William Douglas sat
out the case for undisclosed rea-
sons.
THE SUITS on behalf of the
studentswere originally denied
by a U. S. District Court - a
ruling later upheld by a U. S.
Court of Appeals - which said
the cases were barred by the
11th amendment to the Consti-
tution, which holds, in effect,
that a state may be sued only
when it grants permission.
The District Court miscon-
strued the 11th amendment, Chief
Justice Warren Burger said on
behalf of the high court.
For at least six decades, he
said, the amendment has been

interpreted to provide "no shield
for a state official confronted
by a claim that he had deprived
another of a federal right under
the color of state law."
The high court's ruling means
the suits - damage actions -
will be brought to trial.
DEFENDANTS are
former Governor James Rhodes;
Sylvester Del Corso, state com-
mander of the Ohio National
Guard; Robert Canterbury, his
chief assistant; Harry Jones, a
major in Ohio's state militia or-
ganization; John Martin and an-
other guard captain; and Rob-
ert White, president of the uni-
versity.
The fatal confrontation occur-

wrong
red May 4, 1970, when the Kent
State campus, like many others
in the nation, was the scene of
student demonstrations against
the decision to send U. S. troops
into Cambodia.
A small detachment of guards-
men marched through the throng
of students and, upon reaching
the top of a small rise, reported-
ly turned and fired into the
crowd. .
Four students were killed.
The guardsmen's actions were
supported by state officials who
said that while the- discharging
of the weapons was probably a
mistake, it was done in a sin-
cere attempt to maintain order,
as they were charged to do un-
der state law.

This week's letters
were kind of
dull, but I did get
a neat package.
It contained a home
built mouse trap. Not
one of those hurtful, snapper, killer,
5 & 10 things. But a genuine can't-hurt-
you-and-I'm-sorry-if-I - scared - you
kind of a thing. It was made of scrap
wood and window screen (see illus.)
and I got a very together friend of
mine to do a blueprint and instruc-
tions. I also have a friend with a copy
machine, soif you'd like a copy of the
plan just mail me the mouse coupon.

club soda, %A of a can of frozen lemon-

lemon and orange slices. To make
more just double, triple or quadruple
everything.
Listen to Mama, and pass

Isn't it time you stopped
cutting your own hair?
So you do a pretty good job. But pretty good isn't enough
if you really want to get your head together beautifully.
Even yard-long hair needs the touch of an expert to behave
its best. And now as the pendulum swings to shorter hair,
you might even want a new look. Our trimmers never pressure
you to cut your hair too short. They'll never snip a snip
without checking with you. So if you really love your hair
(as much as we do) come to the Trimmers.
