Senior citizens participating in a federally funded lunch program have stopped saying prayers before the meal because one member of the group threatened to file suit if they didn't. Now, the 300 elderly diners in Kalamazoo are merely pausing for a moment of silence before eating, although some are praying on the sidewalk before they enter. Senior Services, Inc.., which operates the federal lunch program, received a letter from an uni- dentified diner this week complaining that pub-. lic prayers before lunch amounted to an illegal mingling of church and state. 0 lappenings... ... are non-existent Sunday.

Tucker, a father of two young sons in Coventry, R.I., has won a battle to force the public schools there to install private shower stalls for boys. He com- plained to the U.S. Department of Health, Edu- cation, and Welfare after discovering that girls had private stalls while boys only had group showers. He called that a form of sex discrim- ination, saying that boys can be as bashful as girls. HEW officials agreed and ordered the school department to plan corrective action. Tuck- er earlier led a .successful campaign to require that doors be put on boys' bathroom stalls. It seems the next barrier on the modesty frontier would be requiring his children to undress in the dark. Wrong side of the bed Steve Mashin lost everything but the shirt on his back Friday night. Returning to his Miami apartment after a night out, he found that burg- lars had haule~d off his television set, stereo and wrist watch. He then decided to drive over to Miami Beach to see his mother and a traffic accident put his car out of commission. After hitch hiking home, Mashin stopped to telephone a friend from a phone booth a block from his apartment. A bandit drove up and stole his last $4. ' ~ - Garcia freed After 14% months in jail, Inez Garcia is free on $5,000 bail pending a retrial in the slaying of a man she says helped rape her. Garcia, 31, was greeted with a shower of flowers and chants of "viva Inez" when she was released Friday from the Monterey County jail. The State Court of Appeals, which overturned her conviction last month, ordered a county court to set bail. Garcia's lawyer, Susan Jordan, called her a "sym- bol of resistance across America" and asked that she be released on her own recognizance. Garcia was convicted in Oct., 1974 of second-degree mur- der for gunning down 300-pound Miguel Jiminez. She said she killed him because he held her down while aiother man raped her. 0 Driving me crazy Does an avalanche of unpaid parking tickets fall on the floor of your car when you open your glove compartment?

Quoting a secret report prepared for a "reputable international organization which is unwilling to be named," it said the United States and Soviet Union were far more deeply com- mitted militarily in the re- gion than either had ad- mitted. In addition, South Africa had between 4,000 and 6,000 soldiers in Ango- la by mid December. t I 6 i Close results likely In clericals election By JAMES NICOLL The clericals union continued counting ballots yesterday from last week's hotly contested election of executive officers and bargaining team members. Results were expected early this morning in this latest duel between the conservative Unity Caucus and their challengers, the Clericals for a Democratic Union (CDU). A close count seems likely. Tabulation of the results were supposed to have been completed Friday night, but a dispute developed over challenged ballots. THE UNITY Caucus and the CDU have been fighting for months over the structure and personnel of the union. Unity Caucus supports close cooperation with the United Auto Workers (UAW), with which the local union is affiliated. It has advocated a more representative form of government for the union, with day-to-day decision making power vested in elected representatives. CDU charges that local union interests are being sacrificed to those of the UAW. Ever since the clericals joined the UAW, there has been considerable resentment against the influence of UAW officials on the running of the local union. CDU ALSO FAVORS a more "democratic" structure of union government, with power being exercised by the membership itself rather than by representatives. The present election concerns the makeup of the bargaining team and the executive officers. The outcome will be crucial to the future of the union. CDU has recently succeeded in changing See CLERICALS, Page 2 sa s THE OBSERVER said the U. S. task force was led by the aircraft carier Independence and supported by a guided - missile cruiser and three de- stroyer escorts. The Defense Department last night denied the report. A Defense Department offic- ial said that the Independence was in the Mediterranean and there were no plans for it or other American ships to sail toward Angolan waters. THE OFFICIAL told Reuter the Independence was in the Mediterranean last month, is there now and had no plans to leave Mediterranean waters. The newspaper said that the report raised several disturb- ing questions, because it show- ed that, despite American ac- cusations that the Soviet Union was stepping up the war, the U. S. apparently took the first step. The report said the Inde- pendence carries 90 F-4 Phan- tom jets and was armed after November 15 with several hun- dred tons of napalm, sidewinder missiles, and anti-personnel fragmentation bombs. THE NEWSPAPER said it understood the Independence took part in a large NATO ex- ercise called Ocean Safari in November and afterward dock- ed at Portsmouth, Enelnnd: It sailed on the night of No- vembr 27-28, accomnanied by two frkzates, the. USS Bowen and T115 Airgsworth, and Ports- mo th authorities were told the vessels were leaving for the United States. The task force then stonped in the Azores to take on food, sunnlies and fuel in the first half of December, according to the secret report. TbE REPORT was dated De- cember 14 and was the third written since, early November for the international organiza- tion, the Observer said. Daily Photo by KEN HNK INDIANA'S Scott May (42) fires a jump shot over the outstretched arms of Michigan's Wayman Britt (32) in first half action at Crisler Arena yesterday afternoon. May didn't have one of his best games against the Blue cagers but teammate Kent Benson (54) more than made up for him as the junior center drilled in 33 paints for the victorious Hoosiers who retained the top posi- tion in the Big Ten with a 80-74 win. BENSON TOO MUCH, 80-74 Indiana r By BILL STIEG Indiana's fast start and Kent Benson's career- high 33 points frustrated Michigan's hopes of upset as the top-ranked. Hoosiers repelled the Wolverines, 80-74 at Crisler Arena yesterday. A record crowd of 14,063 watched undefeated Indiana - go ahead 16-2 in the first six minutes. Benson scored six in that stretch, and went on to hit 16 of 18 jumpers, lay-ups and hook shots to hold the Wolverines at bay. THOUGH MICHIGAN never led, a late surge made it 74-70 at 1:57. But a double-teaming de- fense left Hoosier guard Bob Wilkerson open tin- der the basket. He scored and Michigan center Phil Hubbard fouled him hard after the shot. Jim Crews replacedtthe stunned Wilkerson and hit two free throws to make it 78-70 and put away Indiana's 12th win. Moments earlier, Michigan had a chance to pull within two after Hoosier Quinn Buckner (,pels Blue travelled,' one of an uncommon 27 turnovers by Lidiana. Steve Grote drove the baseline but his shot underneath was blocked by the 6-11 Benson. Indiana controlled the ensuing jump ball and Wilkerson scored 15 secolds later.. INDIANA'S turnovers let Michigan battle back from its sloppy start and the Maize and Blue trailed only 36-33 at halftime. But Hubbard's four fo-ls forced Michigan into a rarely-used zone defense to start the second half, and the Hoosiers had little trouble getting open and hitting their shots. "I didn't think they were a great shooting team until today," said Wolverine coach Johnny Orr. "They shot very well, but I thought they pushed Ioff on a couple rebounds." By the time Michigan abandoned the zone, Indiana was ahead 53-44 and the Hoosiers' leading scorer, Scott May, had regained his shooting See HOOSIERS, Page 8 Draft lottery may be cancelled WASHINGTON (I)-Registra- tion for the standby military draft and the annual draft lot- tery probably will be called off this year because of the budget crunch, informed sources say. In past years the date of the annual lottery, deciding the or- der in which men would be call- ed up if necessary, has been an- nounced by early January, but there are no signs of it hap- pening this year. AND IT HAD been reported that the date for carrying out the revised system of registra- tion would be announced by now, but President Ford has issued no proclamation setting a date, nor has he indicated he will. Both the lottery and the regis- tration this year would involve men who turned age 18 last year. If neither event is held they would be the first 18-year- olds not processed in any fashion since the two-year lapse of the draft law in 1947-48. Asked about this situation, Selective Service Director Byron Pepitone noted that future plans are up to Ford and he refused to speculate on what the Presi- dent's decision might be. THE SELECTIVE Service Act says "it shall be the duty of every male . . . between ;the ages of 18 and 26, to present himself and to submit to regis- tration at such time or times and place or places, and in such manner, as shall be determined by proclamation of the Presi- dent." This means it is possible for registration and lotteries to be delayed for several years with- out any action .by Congress. With Ford pushing the Office of Management and Budget to cut spending by all federal agencies, it is likely Selecrive Service activities will De cut back since nobody is being draft- ed. THE AGENCY already :as drastically curtailed its size-and activity in the face of demands on Capitol Hill for reducing is budget. Congress last fall voted a reduced appropriation of $37 5 million. At the same time, a P,.) Egon report says only 14 ,,r cent of the Army deserters who partici- pated in President Focd's clem- ency program "mention Viet- nam as being in any way respon- sible for their decision to leave." "Their reasons for lea'ing were generally unassociated with the war," said the Penta- gon report on the President's program, which was aimed at healing national divisiveness over the Vietnam war. HALF OF the men desevted because of personal, family or financial problems, lh repvrt said. Similar reasons were given by most deserters during World War II and the Korean War, it added. Most of the remainder were enable to adjust to Army lfe, according to Pentagon officials. The report summarized the Pentagon's part in the Presi- dent's clemency program, which also affected draft dodgers who never got into uniform. The program ran from Sapt. 15, 1974, until last March 31.
