sides to achieve an agreement,"
Ford said. "Some of the rhetoric
concentration has had the im-
pact of making negotiations
much more difficult."
Ford seemed to be echoing re-E
marks made only the day before
by former Secretary of State
Henry Kissinger. In a Washing-
ton speech, Kissinger was re-
ported to have warned the Car-
ter administration of its over.-
dependence on "rhetoric" in the
SALT negotiations.

Minister Andrei Gromyko have

THE THOUGHT that the new
administration may have "froz-

"worries me a bit," Ford said.
"They could and probably will4
be subjected to very, very vig-t
orous condemnation by elements<
inside the U.S."
"I respect that the over-opti-
mism, rhetoric and possible mis-
calculations might have seriousT
repercussions as far as U.S.-
Soviet relations are concerned,"
he said.l
"It appears to me that the'
perceived relationship (between1
the U.S. and the Soviets) is at
a very low point, perhaps the
lowest in the last five or six
years. I hope this apparent de-1
cay in good relations between
the two sides is only tempo-
rary."E
"THE TWO superpowers must
- in my judgment-work cooper-1
atively and make a maximum
effort (to ,reach an agreementt
on arms)," Ford said. {
The current strategic arms,
limitations treaty expires this
October, and, if the two coun-
tries fail to reach a new agree-
ment by then, Ford noted there
will be "very adverse affects,
not only on the U.S. and the So-
viet Union, but on the world as:
a whole."

"It's too early to tell whether
the new technique will be suc-
cessful. . . . It may be produc-
tive or it may be harmful," Ford
added.
FORD, WHO seemed comfort-
able standing before some 400
class members and almost 100
reporters, smiled frequently in
response to students' questions.
Answering one query about the
low percentage of blacks who
voted Republican last Novem-
ber, Ford quipped, "Of course,
I think black voters who didn't
vote for me made a mistake."
On a more serious note, he said
the Republican record "was not
adequately conveyed" to blacks.
The formerapresident appear-
ed to make a special effort to
keep his name among those who
are considered candidates for
the presidency in 1980. Describ-
ing his feelings toward the pres-
idency, Ford said "regardless
of the burden, it has been a
great experience, and I would
try to repeat it, if I had the op-'
portunity."

"We're currently gathering in-
formation from various poll
workers and challengers as to'
which ones (precincts) might
have had problems," Wheeler
said.
AFTER Belcher petitions for,
a recount, Wheeler will have 48
hours to decide which, if any,
precincts he wants recounted.
He indicated he would meet with
his staff to make those deci-
sions this morning.
Wheeler said he was sur-
prised that he had retained his
one-vote lead following the can-
vassers' tally because the origi-
nal results of the election had
been phoned in from various
precincts.
"I'm surprised there hadn't
been some mistakes with people
calling in totals," he said.
CANVASSER Beals said he,
too, had expected a change in
the original vote total. "It's un-
