emergency session of the Peoples'
Assembly, Egypt's parliament, for Sat-
urday to "place before the representa-
tives of the people all the facts of the
situation."
It was from that same rostrum that
Sadat launched the historic quest for
peace that brough him to Jerusalem
Nov. 19 for a first dramatic meeting
with leaders of the nation his country
fought in four wars.
THAT MEETING led to another bet-
ween Sadat and Prime Minister
Menahem Begin on Christmas day at
Ismailia, Egypt. Unable to reach a
breakthrough in matters of substance,
Sadat and Begin arranged the political
conference in Jerusalem and parallel
military talks in Cairo.
The first session of the military talks
adjourned last week to await develop-
ments of the Jerusalem talks. They
were scheduled to .resume today but
Israeli television reported the talks ap-
parenty will be postponed.
Kamel left the hotel at 9:15 p.m.
(2:15 p.m. EST) and climbed into a
black limousine for the ride to
Israel's Ben Gurion airport, where
the Egyptian jet waited to take him
home.
ALI HAMDY EL GAMMAL, editor
of the semi-official Egyptian news-
paper Al Ahram, told reporters when
demands that Israel pull back to its
pre-1967 war borders and give the
Palestinians self-determination.
Begin, in the customary after
dinner toast, said there was a
"national consensus" against total

"have self-determination in 21 sover-
eign Arab states." .
Begin went on to compare Palestin-
ian self-government with Hitler's
expansionist policies during the
1930's.
KAMEL, TAKEN aback by his
host's injection of politics into what
had been billed as relaxed social
event, gave a cool response, stating
again the basic elements Egypt
considers required for peace -
Israeli withdrawal from all lands
occupied in the 1967 Middle East war
and statehood for the Palestinians.
When the talks convened Tuesday
morning, Kamel startled Israelis
with his unwavering restatement of
Egyptian peace terms.
Some Israeli officials said they had
hoped Egyptian negotiators would be

ister said the Israelis had kept the
talks "fluid," moving them "into side

to make the negotiations become en-
grossed in obscure and vague ques-
tions."

man, offering a brighter note, said:
"We are making progress." There is
"no crisis, no deadlock, no break-
down."
An hour later, Sadat made his dra-
matic announcement.
The Egyptian President had beer
growing increasingly pessimistic of
the direction of the talks. In a week-
end interview he said there was nc
chance Israel and Egypt could agree
on a declaration of principles for
peace.
HIS GLOOMY prognosis was un-
derlined by a dispute over an agenda
for the talks that threatened to abort
them before they began.
Under last-minute pressure from
Vance, Israel andaEgypt forged a
compromise agenda that skimmed
over areas of basic disagreement,
leaving them for later talks.

AHMED, a member of the Organi-
zation of Arab Students, said most
Arab students here feel that the
break in negotiations is "a technical
bluff on the part of Sadat to pressure
the Americans to pressure the Is-
raelis to make more concessions."
In addition, Ahmed said, Sadat is
trying ti "assuage Arab critics and
gain back some lost prestige."
Added Ahmed: "Maybe he's hop-
ing that after this show of force, the
concessions will seem less harsh."
JOHN DIRECTOR* coordinator
for the Student Union for Progressive
Judaism, said, "I'm disappointed
and a little bit surprised." Director
feels Israel could have been more
flexible. "I'm hoping that Sadat
thinks this maneuver may force
Israel to come back to the peace
table with something he believes is
more negotiable," he said.
Despite yesterday's development,
Director is optimistic that the peace
talks will continue. "Peace is imper-
ative," he said.
County deputy cleare
of assault4
By R. J. SMITH
A deputy with the Washtenaw
sheriff's department was acquitted
yesterday in Ann Arbor 15th District
Courtofyassault chargesstemming
from an incident that occurred last
October.
Fred Hollifield and Deputy George
Chapman, who was acquitted Tues-
day, were charged in connection with
a road-side dispute involving two Ann
Arbor residents, Charles Gray and
Richard Benzinger.
IT ALL started when Gray's car
stalled at the intersection of Stadium
and Packard at 3 p.m. October 2.
Benzinger, driving behind Gray, got
out to help him. At this point,
charges
Hollifield and Chapman arrived on
the scene.
According to Hollifield's attorney,
JohnBarr,ethe defendants say they
honked their horn as the light
changed and Hollifield got out of the
car. Gray, they say, made an
obscene gesture to the deputies, and
began talking very heatedly. Tem-
pers flared, and Gray struck Holli-
field.
Barr said Gray and Benzinger
claimed that the deputies honked
their horn, Hollifield walked from the
car and punched Gray, breaking his
glasses.
Hollifield was taken to the hospital
after the fight, and both Gray and
Benzinger reported injuries.
