Statement
If you chanced to pass by artist Charles Ginnever's "Daedalus"
sculpture shortly after it was installed on the Art Museum lawn last
week, you may have seen another type of artistic statement - a price
tag plaed by Lionel Biron on the giant metal edifice. "The price tag is
a poetic metaphor," said Biron, "and should not be taken at face value
alone." In a news release handed out on the spot Biron informed the
public that the $500,000 price tag - a figure arrived at partially by
adding labor and material costs - was not a criticism of the unusual
sculpture. "What shocks most people in my assertion is not the rela-
tive aesthetic worth of the two works of art," Biron said, referring to
"Daedalus" and the price tag, "but the genuine challenge it presents
to economic assumptions upon which our society rests. In other words,
if I were given 'a half million dollars for the price tag and the sculptor
only received 10 per cent of this amount, this would seriously upset
generally held beliefs as to what constitutes the apparently logical
distribution of moneyin our society." Hmmm...

Carter
WASHINGTON (AP) - The Carter
administration opened a new round of
Middle East diplomacy yesterday with
Israeli Foreign Minister Moshe Dayan
and said it would be willing to talk with
the Palestine Liberation Organization
(PLO) if the group accepts United Na-
tions resolutions recognizing Israel.
Dayan carried to President Carter
and Secretary of State Cyrus Vance
proposals for a settlement that would
return some territories to the Arab
countries but maintain Israel military
control over the west bank of the Jor-
dan River.
Administration officials, while not
optimistic about a breakthrough in
negotiations, emphasized a determina-
tion to get the Palestinians admitted to
the peace table.

ing the 1967 Middle East war. Thirty-,
four Americans were killed in the at-

said showed Dayan deliberately or-

CINCINNATI (AP) - A waitress
working in the Beverly Hills Supper
Club the night a fire killed 164 people
told a congressional hearing yesterday
that fire doors at the supper club rour
tinely were kept locked. Janetta John-
son, who was injured trying to get out of
the overcrowded Cabaret Room, also
said aisles leading to the room's single
exit were blocked by tables and chairs.
"It was like trying to get an egg into a
Coke bottle," she said of the jam up at
the door.
"I just knew that smoke was going to
kill me. People were screaming and
pushing trying to get through that sin-
gle exit door."
JOHNSON SAID she had seen the fire
doors unlocked "perhaps eight times"
in the;two years she worked there. She
testified she saw an employe unlock
back fire doors the night of the May 28
fire.
She was one of a series of witnesses
testifying about the fire before the sub-
committee on Consumer Protection and
Finance of the House Committee on In-
terstate and Foreign Commerce.
KENTUCKY GOV. Julian Carroll
predicted yesterday morning that the
owners of the club and former state
Fire Marshal John Calvert might be in-
dicted for "clearly illegal and malici-
ous" activities and for their total dis-
regard for the safety of Beverly Hills
patrons.
He charged that Richard Schilling
and his sons, owners of the club, had en-
gaged in a "conspiracy" with archi-
tects and electrical workers to violate
state building codes.
Carroll, the first to testify yesterday,
told the committee he was going to
place the fire marshal's office "in such
order that there are no more tragedies
it is within the power of the agency to
prevent."

HP-29C/19C
The HP-29C has continuous memory capability so
programs of your-choice are saved, ready- for use, until you
clear them or over write them with more programs.
As a result you can program frequently-needed calcula-
tions once, and then perform them as often as necessary-
hour after hour, day after day-without bother or lost time
caused by reentering your program.
The 29C also retains data in 16 of its 30 registers, so
you can store away needed constants or record data in the
field"lor later use. ,_
As an added convenience, the number in the display is
also saved by continuous memory. And the display format
is kept as well.
You can operate the HP-29C on batteries alone or from
a convenient electrical outlet while batteries are being
recharged.
Battery operating time is significantly extended since
the calculator may be switched off between calculations or
in the midst of writing a program without losing program
steps or data.
