The pret- ty pink card was sent here by James Stillwater as testimonial to the power of personal advertis- ing. Stillwater placed a personal in the Daily last July asking for an "intelligent, warm, honest, not over-weight woman who is interested in a serious relationship." lie said he "received telephone calls from one or two losers, a woman who wanted to know what kind of results I was getting, a student from Iraq who wanted me to sell him the names and telephone numbers of the women in whom I was not interested, and a most remarkable woman with whom I quickly fell in love." That woman was Susan Jarchow, and the happy couple will be joined in holy matrimony the 27th of December.

All defendants had pleaded not guilty to the charges, which were dismissed after an agreement had been reached by the University and GEO leaders. " Happenings... . .

Ky gets booed Cornell University is one place former South Vietnamese Vice President Nguyen Cao Ky will not remember fondly. He was booed off stage there in what he called the worst reception he has re- ceived in this country. During a 25-minute ques- tion-and-answer session before he fled an audience of 1,800 last night, Ky denied that he had carried a kilo of heroin into the United States, had partici- pated in stealing land from peasants and once said he admired Nazi leader Adolf Hitler. About a third of the audience repeatedly booed and jeered at Ky's responses. As the booing grew louder, Ky retreated from the stage. However, Ky said he would continue to accept speaking engagements around the country. Snper rin-off! Look, up in the sky! Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's a rip-off!

By ANN MARIE LIPINSKI and DAVID WEINBERG When the Ann Arbor City Council convened for the first time under newly-elected Democratic Mayor Albert Wheeler last April, the atmosphere was tense, the meeting unorganized. and a host of uanswered questions hung in the air. There were only four new faces on council following the April 7 elections, but they represented an enormous shift in partisan power. THE REPUBLICANS lost their seven-member majority and now held only five council seats. The Democratic tally also changed as they gained a seat, boosting their membership to five. The only constant was the single vote of the Socialist Human Rights Party (SHRP) held by Kathy Kozachenko. Adding to the uncertainties that the new 5-5-1 split created was the question of Wheeler's status as city Mayor. No one was See IN-FIGHTING, Page 7 SHRP power waning By ANN MARIE LIPINSKI and DAVID WEINBERG Councilwoman Kathy Kozachenko reached the boiling point two months ago. An entire term of frustration exploded and the council chambers erupted in chaos as she. shouted: "I won't shut-up. I'm'speaking right now . . . I never said I'd play by the rules." Kozachenko, the sole Socialist Human Rights Party (SHRP) representative on City Council, later accused Councilwoman Carol Jones (D-Second Ward) of attempting to pull the microphone away from her. ALTHOUGH this scene was an isolated incident, it was indica- tive of Kozachenkos long-standing discontent. Almost since the day she took office in April, 1974, she has felt frustrated and isolated from the others members of council. And at the core of her hos- tility toward city politics and the electoral system in general sits one key fact: Kathy Kozachenko has given up on City Council. "It's a very odd thing for me to ever have been on City Coun- cil," she said recently. "In fact I've forgotten how odd it is. It's not where I want to be. It's not with the people I want to be with, See KOZACHENKO, Page 2 Wheeler Kozachenko CONTEMPT THREAT AVERTED House dros Kissinger case ICompromises with Ford By AP and Reuter WASHINGTON - T h e House of Representatives Intelligence Committee yes- terday dropped its effort to charge Secretary of State Henry Kissinger with con- tempt of Congress after the White House provided it with information on covert operations. Drawing scattered ap- plause, Chairman Otis Pike (D-N.Y.) t o 1 d the House that Ford aides have "sub- stantially complied" with a subpoena against Kissinger for information - although the committee will not be allowed to see the docu- ments it wanted. PIKE TOLD the committee he was dropping the contempt ac- tion on promise of getting de- tails of 20 State Department re- quests for covert U.S. political operations abroad since 1961. "W~e did not get everything we wanted," Pike told his com- mittee, "but we got more than they were willing to give up." The committee had approved a contempt of Congress citation Nov. 14. If the House had voted the citation, Kissinger could theoretically have been sen- tenced to a year in jail and be given a $1,000 fine, but Pike had said repeatedly there was never any danger of Kissinger going to jail. THE COMMITTEE'S senior Republican, Rep. Robert Mc- Clory of Illinois, said the elev- enth hour compromise offer sent to Pike Tuesday afternoon from White House aides was ordered by Ford personally. "When the President got back (from China) they met with the President at once and the Presi- dent told them to give us what we want," McClory said. Pike agreed to drop the con- tempt action against Kissinger after getting a report from a committee delegation that the information puts Kissinger in "substantial compliance" with a committee subpoena. COUNSEL A. Searle Field said the delegation got "very good assurance" at the White House that the committee will get the information on the co- vert operations it needs. He said William Hyland, di- rector of the State Department's Bureau of Intelligence, briefed <. the delegationtdirectly from the .. 20 State Department proposals and from top secret minutes of the National Security Council's Committee of 40 meeting. Apparently because Ford had c l a i im e d executive privilege against turning over everything the committee subpoenaed, Hy- land emphasized that the com- mittee members were not al- lowed to see the documents themselves. THE DOCUMENTS will not be turned over to the committee but Field said the staff prob- ably will take detailed notes at Kissinger See HOUSE, Page 3 Senate panel posses taX cut extension bill WASHINGTON (P) - The Senate Finance Committee yester- day approved a bill to continue this year's temporary tax cuts for another six months. Despite a presidential veto threat, the panel refused to tie the politically-sensitive measure to a cut in federal spending. The tax cut, which is slightly more generous to poorer and larger families than the bill voted last week by the House, was approved by the Finance Committee 14 to 4. ON AN 11 to S vote minutes earlier, the committee rejected an effort by Sen. Carl Curtis, (R-Neb.), to condition the tax cut on a dollar-for-dollar reduction in federal spending. Earlier in the day, President Ford renewed his threat to veto any taxcut nothtied to a federal-spending reduction.tShortly after that word reached Capitol Hill, Senate Democrats voted unani- mously to reject Ford's conditions. Democrats say Congress will be able to muster the required two-thirds majority and override the expected veto. If the veto is sustained, the average American worker would see his or her taxes rise by eight per cent beginning in January. The Senate is expected to consider the tax-cut bill early next week. EXPECTED approval would send the measure to conference with the House, and the bill could go to Ford by Wednesday. Should he veto the bill immediately, Congress could attempt to override before adjourning around Dec. 19 for the holidays. Democrats have emphasized that if Ford attempts to block their Christmas recess in order to force action on the bill, they will send him the identical measure a second time. The Senate version of the tax cut basically continues the anti- See SENATE, Page 3 AP Photo HOUSE INTELLIGENCE Committee Chairman Otis Pike, left, and A.

If the Regents approve the increase, doubles and triples would cost an additional $112 next year and singles would jump $188. rated THE SIX-MEMBER commit- tee's recommendation, with a possible minority proposal for a smaller, 7.1 per cent hike, will be presented to Housing Direc- tor John Feldkamp and Vice President for Student Services Henry Johnson by the end of the month. Any final decision on a rate increase rests with the Regents. Senate approves bill for New York loans Ike The committee, an advisory group of students and adminis- trators, investigated several al- ternatives, such as service cuts, before reaching their tentative decision last week. Committee member Anne Johnson, a New- berry resident, says, "Student services have been cut down to the bare minimum. We can't anymore." "You need a 6.6 per cent hike to break even," claims David Faye, one of two members sup- porting only the 7.1 per cent in- crease. "We think it's the ut- most that students can pay." THE COMMITTEE considered combining weekend meals by serving West Quad residents at Svith Quad, Mosher-Jordan at Markley and Alice Lloyd at Stockwell. The action would save $96,000 annually.
