State agencies wage campaign
to prohibit secret documents

Scandal rocks
Scotland Yard

LANSING (UPI)-Two watch-'
dog agencies have launched a
statewide campaign to pass
legislation that would outlaw
most secret documents in state
and local government.
Officers of Common Cause of
Michigan and the Public Interest
Research Group in Michigan
said yesterday they will urge
all interested citizens and groups
to support the new Freedom of
Information Act to be introduc-
ed in the House this week.
EDWARD Petrini, PIRGIM

legal director, said the bill is
aimed at ensuring that citizens
are granted access to all gov-
ernmental facts, even if they
are unfavorable to those in
power.
He said it closes loopholes in
current law and provides fines
up to $500 if officials refuse to
supply information.
"It does no good for agencies1
to give access in 99 per cent of
the "cases, then deny it in that
one per cent when an embar-
rassing fact is involved," Pe-
trini told a news conference.

dar showed himself astute, witty
and clever in his performance,
narticularly in the transition
frrn the second theme of the
first movement to the point
where the orchestra takes over.
THE SHOW was followed by
the oresentation of citations of
merit to both Menuhin and San-
dcr for the donation of their
musical services in this Second
Anni al Benefit Concert. The
nresert'4ions were made by

The oresentation was also fol-
lowed by a $25-a-head cocktail
party reycention at the Michigan
L.,agi'e, where, for the forking
over of that amount, one could
meet Sandor, Rector, Britton and
