Aim' Arbor. Nlichi;a n 48,10$ RECORD DEFIC Carter (Continued from Page1) end following two days of talks in Washington with businessper- sons and members of Congress. Carter left Washington Friday night, saying that when he en- ters the White House on Jan. 20, he will give priority to jobs and would recommend tax cuts only to the extent they were needed to stimulate the econo- my. ONE ADVISER suggested that y the prospect of proposing a rec- ord budget deficit so soon after taking, office is among the rea- - sons Carter is delaying any quick decision on a tax cut or jobs program for 1977. There also is some concern in the Carter camp that Con- IT POSSIBLE: plans gress may balk at approving a record deficit. It is partly to counter these concerns that Carter has his transition staff preparing an an ti-inflation program that could be disclosed at the same tim any economic initiatives are an- nounced after the President elect is sworn in Jan. 20. SEVERAL Democratic con gresspersons he met in Wash ington told him that creatin new job opportunities was the soundest way to meet economi challenges, because tax cut would not help the army o eight million unemployed. The deficit for fiscal 1977 which started on Oct. 1, already is likely to be near $60 billion Not at Miss Porter's I I 1" over 80 courses offered in art 0 dance * photography Z J FRI.-SAT.-SUN. PAUL SIEBEL $3.00 budget , according to congressional budg- et experts. Anything Carter does e to increase spending or cut tax- s es is almost certain to push it - above the record deficit of $65.6 d billion in fiscal 1976, they add. e If Carter decides on the $15 - billion to $20 billion jobs and - tax cut program his advisers are recommending, the poten- - tial 1977 budget deficit could - be as high as $80 billion. e CARTER HAS repeatedly gone c out of his way to emphasize s that he hasn't yet committed f himself to any program. He said recently that he prefers spend- ing for jobs rather than a tax ycut to stimulate the economy. , PART OF CARTER'S problem in getting public support for lar- ger budget deficits is that ma- ny fiscal conservatives, includ- ing Treasury Secretary William Simon and Federal Reserve Board Chairman Arthur Burns, have blamed the persistent defi- cits of the past 15 years for the nation's inflation problems. But Arthur Okun, chairman of the Council of Economic Advis- ers under President Lyndon Johnson, said Friday there is little danger that large budget deficits will increase inflation while the economy is operating below its capacity. (Continued from Page 1) decorum and deportment were of the essence is confronted by the pitiless reality of a baby found dead under a dormitory bed. Authorities are .investigating the case of a sophomore who gave birth to the full-term baby boy, found dead in a plastic bag on Nov. 15. The cause of death has not been disclosed, but the state medical examiner expects to issue a report this week. The young mother, who has not been identified, first en- tered the school last Septem-. ber. She was hospitalized after the body was discovered and now is recuperating at her home, out of state. Did her parents, the school authorities, or other students know she was pregnant? Headmaster Warren Hance won't comment. ' ON DEC. 3, he called an as- sembly and told the' students: "The ordeal and trauma which she experienced is beyond my comprehension. To the best of my knowledge, there were no other persons involved in this matter." "Our school is like a. braided rug," Hance said. "Each of our aims, our activities, our good times, and our bad times are so entwined with one another that when something tragic oc- curs to one of us, we are all affected by it." The girls have been warned not to talk with reporters. Some trot ofd with a toss of their po- ny-tails. Some seem frightened and apologetic. "PLEASE, I'M SORRY, but I just can't talk," said one girl. "We heard she was pregnant when she got here," said one school employe, who asked not to be identified. "It's really no big deal. Girls get pregnant all the time. It's, just because this is the exclusive Miss Porter's School that it's news. "Elsewhere babies are found in garbage cans, and nobody cares." THE TOWN OF Farmington is neither aghast nor abuzz about the case. Some boys from Farmington High School have driven past Miss Porter's and shouted obscenities or sung thel song: "Having My Baby." But mostly, people feel sorry. Oh, yes, I saw the girl. I could tell she was pregnant," said one elderly shopkeeper who also asked to remain anony- mous. "She used to come in, here with other girls. She was wearing a maternity top or smock," she said. "Too bad that with the mon- ey her family must have she couldn't have had an abortion, or put the baby up for adop- tion."

One of the best singers in the business Paul Siebel numbers among his admirers David Bromberg, who used to back him up, Emmy Lou Harris, who used to sing with him in the Village, and Linda Ronstadt. A couple of his more famous songs are "Louise" and "Any Day W o m a n" (recorded by Bonnie Reitt). HOOT-75c, Wednesdays "Too bad she couldn't of went to her own mother," said How- ard Griffin, a gravedigger. GARY PAWLOS, 16, a Farm- ington High School pupil, said there are a few snickers at the public school, "because Miss Porter's girls are supposed to be so dainty and proper." But he said most felt sorry for the girl and thought she should have had an abortion or put the child up for adoption. Alfie Frugge, 62, leaned on his mop at the Sarah Porter Me- morial where the lady, monocle in her lap, looked sharply down from an oil painting. "Well, sometimes I think it's bad that the old discipline and old morality of Miss Porter gives way," he said. "But I guess it's right. The world is changing. And nothing's going to keep babies from being born. It's just too bad that baby didn't live."
