"We are not prepared to go
ahead until we have a timetable
for those held in Laos," he said.
"As soon as the next group of
prisoners are released and safely
in our custody an care, we will re-
sume countdown."
South Vietnam also issued a
statement yesterday saying it was
unhappy over their prisoner ex-
change with the Communists. I
A communique from the foreign
affairs ministry said the North
Vietnamese and Viet Cong were
holding a large number of govern-
ment soldiers who they refused to,
release.
It said the discrepancy of POWs,
ceasefire violations and infiltration
of Communist troops created ob-
stacles which prevented mutual
confidence between the two sides.
South Vietnam and the Viet Cong
are scheduled to begin bilateral
talks on March 29 over adminis-
tration of the ceasefire.
Prisoner exchanges b e t w e e n

Both women and blacks have
been accepted to the med school
disproportionately to the numbers
in which they have applied.
Campbell attributes the disapro-
portionate acceptance of blacks to
"the smaller number of black ap-
plicants and the goal of black ad-
missions."
As for women, he says, "There
are a lot of awfully good people in
the women's group. Their overall
grade point average and test
scores are better than those of the
male applicants."
Admission to the medical school
depends on the decision of the ad-
missions board and is based on
several criteria:
* State of residency. The Uni-
versity, being a state-supported in-
stitution, discriminates in favor of
Michigan residents in medical
school admissions as does the Uni-
versity in admissions to other
schools.
* Age. The board favors appli-
cants that are 25 years old or
younger because studies h a v e
shown that older students tend not
to perform as well as younger ones
and have a higher dropout rate.

What should we think of a
frustrated dress manufacturer
who complains that his business
is driving him into the ground
and then schemes to burn it
down so as to use the insurance
for paying off debts. What of the
fact that he will not consider
making ends meet by scaling
down his life in outer suburbia?
or by giving up his remote con-
trol tape recorder? or bytretriev-
ing his daughter from that ex-
clusive school in Europe? And,
just to broaden things out a bit
more (but make them no deep-
er), how do we take the knowl-
edge that our man, Marry Stoner
(Jack Lemmon), is at bottom not
a tragic figure, but a bewildered,
sentimental fool who sometimes
foams at the mouth because the
scriptwriter (Stephen Shagan)
had some silly idea that despair
increases one's word power? Oh,
for those good old days when
American meant baseball and
batting averages, and neighbor-
ly games in the park, and. above
all, good, friendly business tac-
tics. There never was such an
America, but the script, already
silly, is sophomoric as well, so
forget historical accuracy.
Reflecting upon the preceding
it would seem that Harry Stoner
is a man in a hole contemplat-
ing covering himself over. And
he should know better. After all,
there is the counter - culture to
consider. Enter the budding
groupie. Harry picks up a girl
who reached Enlightenment by
hitching up and down the strip
24 hours a day asking drivers if
they want to ball. She asks
Harry if he wants to ball. He
would rather splutter and dredge
up famous names from the past.
He asksdher what she would most
like to do. She wants to make it
with Mick Jagger. I want to
machine-gun the screen. Far out.

CAROL JONES URGES TRANSIT
MILLAGE PROPOSAL SUPPORT
"The city must begin now to reverse those trends which have led to insur-
5 mountable problems in other cities - haphazard sprawl, traffic congestion
on vast expanses of asphalt, and the separation of the rich from the poor.
I strongly support the AATA public transportation proposition as a first
step in turning the city around, away from cars and roads. The widening
anid construction of new roads has been an irresponsible non-solution to
the problem of traffic congestion and does not meet the transportation
needs of those who cannot afford or do not want cars. We must re-allocate
our attention, money and resources from roads and parking facilities to
public transportation. Proposition A will allow the city to levy 2Y2 mills of
property tax to support a convenient, flexible bus system which will pro-
vide fast, ecologically sound, door-to-door transportation between any two
places in the city for 25c.
