POW's release disputed (Continued from Page 1) "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 South Vietnam hnd the Commu- nists continued yesterday with 700 Viet Cong and North Vietnamese freed at Quang Tri in exchange for 585 government soldiers and 5001 Communists released in Tay Ninh p r o v i n c e near the Cambodian border. is a AUDITIONS ANN ARBOR CIVIC THEATRE THE MOST HAPPY FELLA MASS MEETING, 7:30, MARCH 21 All persons interested should attend Auditions: 7:30 Mar. 23; 2:00 p.m. Mar. 24 Bring music and dress to dance STUDIO ROOM, MICHIGAN LEAGUE K I .

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. * Previous academic perform- ance, especially undergraduate per- formance, demic scores. iy," says Forence ti truf, assi * A biographical sketch. ant director of the medical tech- .

I The number of males in the nursing school, however, has re- mained constant over the past five years. There were ten males in the school in 1968 and there are 12 More cinema picks (Continued from Page 3) much gold means to.you, -DAVID GRUBER Save the Tiger Wayside 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.

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.
