Dems

claim

wiretapping
By The Associated Press
Lawrence O'Brien, chairman of Sen. George McGovern's
presidential campaign, said yesterday that the Watergate
wiretappers had succeeded in bugging his telephone while he
was Democratic national chairman and had made an abortive
attempt to bug McGovern's pre-convention political head-
quarters.
O'Brien told a news conference that at least two tele-
phones-his and the Democratic headquarters telephone of
R. Spencer Oliver, liaison man with Democratic state chair-
men-were tapped for several
dE weeks prior to the June 17
break-in at the Watergate Of-
fice Building headquarters of
the Democratic National Com-
mittee.
O'Brien added that eavesdroppers
in a hotel across the street made
summary transcripts of his tele-
f l bu uphone conversations.

Spokesman for the Israeli
government expressed appreci-
ation for the efforts of the West
German government to save the
lives of the slain athletes.
Repercussions from the kill-
ings are still being felt in West
Germany, however. Arab guer-
rillas warned yesterday that ter-
rorists may try to kill West Ger-
man Jews this weekend with
bomb packages disguised as
Jewish new year's gifts.
The Black September Pales-
tine Commando group,- which
has taken credit for the killings,
'also threatened to "deal Ger-
many a heavy blow" if the three
terrorists being held for their
part in the massacre are not re-
leased.
"We will show the German
imperialists, who dragged the

Have you ever wanted to be
a part of a great metropolitan
newspaper? Well, wC-can't offer
you that, but if you'll narrow
your goals down to a great
campus paper, The Daily's for
you. If you're even a little in-
terested in producing this mass
of newsprint and printers' ink,
come to The Daily's first mass
meeting, Tuesday at 8 p.m.
In their first official reaction
to the massacre the Egyptian
government laidthe sole blame
for the killings on the Bonn gov-
ernment. German officials had
asked the Egyptians to inter-
vene in the situation while, the
hostages were still alive, but the
Egyptians refused to help.
TheEgyptians promised some
sort of "decisive action" against
West Germany but refused to
specify what form that action
might take.
One of Germany's leading Mid-
dle East specialists said that
Arab countries cannot expect
good relations with Bonn in the
future unless they condemn the
shooting.
"Our relationship to the Arab
states will be decisively influ-
enced by their attitude . . . to-
ward the crime of Munich",
said Hans-Juergen Wichnewski,
an unofficial roving ambassador
to the Middle East credited with
pioneering a recent Arab-Ger-
man reconciliation.

know how to solve problems more," he
says.
Stating that "engineers can't afford to be
narrow specialists," Ragone advises them
not to specialize, citing specialization as
the cause for the latest slump in engineer-
ing enrollment. He encourages students to
"stay flexible, stay loose."
As a dean, Ragone feels it is, his duty
to "create conditions to further the process
of education." He says that he should
"make sure that both problem-oriented and
science-oriented divisions survive and work
together."
"The greatness of a school is measured
by it's diversity," Ragone says.
Ragone would "love to foster the in-
volvement of more engineers in government
policy." He advises engin students to work
on staffs of congressmen in order to become
aware of the forces coming into play on
legislators.

After teaching at the University from
1953 to 1962, Ragone left and headed the
metallurgy department of the Atomic Divi-
sion of General Dynamics and helped design
an efficient type of nuclear reactor which
minimized the problem of heated w a s t e
water, thermal pollution. "In those days,
nobody gave a damn," he recalls.
An expert on the problem of automotive
pollution, Ragone has served on numerous
panels discussing the environment, includ-
ing the Committee on Advanced Automotive
Power Systems for the Council of Environ-
mental Quality.
Ragone acted as dean of Dartmouth Col-
lege's engineering school until September 1,
1972 when he assumed the deanship of the
University's College of Engineering, suc-
ceeding Gordon Van Wylen.
Outgoing Dean Van Wylen assumed the
presidency of Hope College in Holland,
