Advocates of the reactor program had considered the $80 million a com- promise to keep the project roughly on schedule without actually beginning construction. ORIGINALLY, the House had au- thorized $150 million, enough to start construction. The Senate approved $75 million and a conference committee settled on the $80 million. Supporters of the Clinch River project say the compromise would have given Carter a year to reassess his position. But 48 House members urged Carter to veto both bills, saying they believe there are enough votes in the House to sustain the vetoes.

"I feel very, very Japanese, but my reactions may be American or may be international," she says. "I 'U' study links PBB to nerve defects (Continued from Page 1) comparing 343 Michigan farm children with a similar group from Wisconsin. Barr found that Michigan youngsters claimed they were suffering from more symptoms of deteriorating health - colds, urinary infections and clumsi- ness - than the Wisconsin group. SAYING PBB may be the cause of ill health among Michigan children, Barr qualified his findings by noting that his researchers found no evidence of sickness when. they examined the children. While Barr said he doubted mothers can produce any immediate toxic effec- ts in their children through breastfeed- ing, he said the question of whether PBB is a potential carcinogen trans- mitted to Michigan newborns in their mothers' milk still remains un- answered. New test results in another PBB- related study, conducted by University Medical School professor Jeoffrey Stross here and by Robert Nixon at Detroit's Henry Ford Hospital, suggest that adults living on PBB-contaminated farms are suffering from many nerve defects. BUT STROSS disagrees with Nixon's interpretation that the symptoms - LSAT WE CAN INCREASE memory lapses, inability to concen- trate, personality changes, skin rashes, muscle and joint pains and others - can be directly attributed to PBB expo- sure. "The results are the same, but the in- terpretation is different," Stross said. "You can't say they (the symptoms) are due to PBB." Stross examined 15 patients here and found, through psychiatric interviews that some were suffering from depres- sion and other symptoms comparable" to those found in "organic brain syn- dromes." But Stross emphasized that these symptoms don't necessarily mean patients are suffering from brain damage due to PBB. NIXON, IN DETROIT, examined 8 patients and concluded they were affec- ted by PBB because testing revealed most had enlarged livers and unusually high levels of liver enzymes, a sign of possible damage to the organ. But only one of Stross's patients had an enlarged liver and the researcher said the enzyme level changes Nixon noted were too small to be considered dangerous. Stross emphasized that no definite conclusions can be made since the test group is too small to be statistically significant. Nearly 60 people, all selec- ted by the State's Public Health Depart- ment because they appeared to be suf- fering from PBB exposure, will have been examined by the two researchers when testing is completed. don't think we are really that different these days." A tall, graceful woman, Togo holds her head high, proud of her independ- ence and status. Uncomfortable with the traditional kimono, Togo came to Ann Arbor dressed in a dazzling black and white patterned gown. Heavy gold earrings tugged on her ears and dark sunglasses disguised her aging face. She sparkled as, a western hostess might, yet a subtle Japanese flame still flickered. TOGO IS AT once a delicate and strong woman. Her strong will is illustrated with stories from the Vietnam War. She was one of the first wives of a Japanese official to ac- company her husband in a helicopter during inspections of the front lines. However, the one-time member of the Board of the Japanese Animal Protection Society also tells tales of a soft, sentimental love for animals, particularly sea lions from the Central Park Zoo which she claims have a special affection for her. Togo now leads a fast-paced life in a Western capital city, but she will never, forget her Japanese heritage, the strict family obligations for example. As the only child in her family, she was expected, when her father died, to provide a new male to head the family. She had two options - marriage or male childbirth. SHE CHOSE THE former, and when she wed the ambassador, he cast off his name and was adopted by the Togo family. "Originally my husband was not to be married into my family," she said. "We had been living in sin for practically three weeks because his parents didn't like the idea of the adoption. "So my parents said, -'That's quite alright,' " said Togo. Her parents agreed to adopt any Togo child. FINALLY, HIS parents gave con- sent for the marriage. The wedding was a regal affair, a large ceremony conducted in the Shinto fashion. "We had -a large guest list of mainly my father's friends and my father-in-law's friends, plus a few from our generation," she said. "But I did not wear a kimono. I used to wear kimonos occasionally, but I think it's something you have to wear a great deal and be used to. Anyway, the men in my family never liked them too well." Her disdain for the traditional Japanese clothing betrays her cos- mopolitan outlook. Togo's mother is German, and from age 2-5 she lived in and was schooled in the U.S. "I REMEMBER from my early years pony rides, dixie cups, and sitting in kindergarten threading beads," said Togo of the unmistake- ably American pastimes. "But the Americans are rather as- tonished at my ignorance of many things," added. "They think that being able to speak English as well as I do that I am one of them. For example, in asking prices I would ask how much is a boittle of soda and they would say, 'Oh, lady, our soda fizzles but our prices don't.'" "But in a special way," smiled Togo, "I have always felt very much at home in the U.S." 'Unfit' poem banned from school library V .condChanc4 entss3. o@00 vi ''ly3. 4' '3a YOUR LSA T SCOR E NIXON WIL L present his prelimin- Call or Write: ary findings to the Michigan State University LSAT Preparation Service inc.

'DELTA49 Rstaurant Sunday Special Dinner for $3.10 Home-made Chicken Noodle Soup BOSTON (AP)-School officials in a small New England town have decided that a poem about men ogling women on the street is not fit for high schoolers to read--even though it was written by a 15-year-old girl. The high school's librarian has taken the issue to court, claiming that of- ficials do not have the right to remove a book from the library after it is accep- ted by a librarian. AND STUDENTS and parents have been packing the federal district court here since the trial started Wednesday. The controversy began last July, when the School Committee in Chelsea, oh the northern edge of Boston, was in- formed of the content of a 21-line poem called "The City to a Young Girl." The poem, part of an anthology of verse by teen-agers, describes in earthy language the girl's disgust at being ap- praised as a "piece of meat" by men on the street. in one passage, she describes the city as: "One million horny lip-smacking men Screaming for my body." Sonja Coleman to clip that poem from the book or remove the entire book, en- titled "Male and Female Under 18." She removed the book, but with some supporters formed a group called the Right to Read Defense Committee, which asked the federal court to restore the book to the shelves. In August, Judge Joseph Tauro or- dered the book temporarily put back in the library. But he said students who wanted to read it would have to show a note of parental approval. THE NON-JURY trial, which began last Wednesday, is expected to end this week. Andrew Quigley, the feisty former mayor who is head of the School Com- mittee, testified that the poem is "tasteless, filthy trash.." "A girl reading that without proper instruction could arrive at the opiion that every man walking down the streit is considering her only as a sex object to be violated," he said. "It is not good education, and it is not something to be found in the halls ofb.a school." THE LIBRARIAN, however, said, "It has definite value. It's trying to make a
