Long arms of the law A federal biologist says the state of Washing- ton has exceeded its legal reach with a new regu- lation designed to protect the octopus. A new state law now makes it a gross misdemeanor, punishable by a fine of up to $1,000 or a year in the can to "molest" or "harass" an octopus. Bill High, who works for the National Marine Fisheries Service, is something of an expert on the subject, having studied the octopus for 19 years. He was also world champion octopus wrestler in 1963. High says the average diver is just "interested in how the creature lives," but Fisheries Director Donald Moos.says there is evi- dence that when the giant mollusks are treated poorly by divers, they often die afterward. The largest octopuses in the world are found in Wash- ington's Puget Sound and off the coast of British Columbia. " Political poet A leading South Korean political prisoner, poet Kim Chi-ha, was returned to court yesterday in Seoul to face charges of violating the nation's repressive anti-Communist law, for which the maximum penalty is death. Kim is already serv- ing a life sentence on a conviction for participating in an allegedly Communist-inspired plot to over- throw the government in April 1974. The new charges against Kim stem from a newspaper article; he wrote last April accusing the govern- ment of fabricating a "Communist conspiracy" to justify a series of mass arrests in 1974. The 35-year-old Kim is the author of several prohibited poems, including "The Five Bandits" and "The Rumor." Both are satirical works" expressing anxiety and anger about corruption and injustice among Korean officials. Kamikaze A Japanese actor-pilot in a World War II Kamikaze pilot's uniform he donned for publicity pictures crashed in a light plane yesterday into the home of Yoshio Kodama, a key figure in Japan's Lockheed payoff scandal. The actor, Mit- suyasu Maeno was killed in the crash, but neither Kodama nor 11 others in the house were injured. Kodama, 65 and bedridden since a stroke two years ago, was charged with tax evasion after a U.S. Senate subcommittee was told he paid $7 million to promote the sale of Lockheed airplanes in Japan. Kantaro Hamada, a cartoonist who lives near Kodama, said he watched the plane through binoculars as it circled overhead and that the pilot appeared to cut the engine. "It looked like a Kamikaze crash," said Hamada. The plane crashed into a second-floor veranda of the house, starting a fire that spread to the first-floor an hour before it was brought under control.

Military sources said the president drew a revolver as she was surroupded by air force troops at the mu- nicipal airport here but was rapidly disarmed. PERON apparently tried to flee the country as a military noose tightened around the cap- ital in the final phase of a coup which had been expected for several weeks. She left Government House here by helicopter shortly after 1 a.m., local time, apparently heading for her residence in the suburb of Olivos. But she ordered the pilot to divert to the municipal airport, in the hope she would be able to fly abroad. Air force troops surrounded the helicopter as it touched down. SHORTLY afterward the 45- year-old widow president was transferred to an air force Fok- ker F-28 which informed sources said was taking her to the win- ter residence of Argentine pres- idents, at Messidor near Bari- loche in the foothills of the An- des Mountains. As Peron was flown to the Andes foothills, a column of tanks and armored troop car- riers roared- through the busi- ness district of Buenos Aires to take up position around Govern- ment House. The sources said a three-man delegation-a general, an ad- SUSAN~ RO WNMILLER,{ahorof6te rap stuy Author tlls crow ofseul injustice r r - X }k B yNM RDoily Photo by SULINE LUB Pensively surveying her audience, cupping her chin in her hands, Susan Brownmiller, author of the highly acclaimed study on rape, "Against Our Will," told a Hill Aud. crowd yesterday, It is my major thesis that the threat and use of rape is a conscious effort by all men as a class, to keep all 9 women as a class, in a state of fear." "Our lives," Brownmiller told the predominantly female audience, "are profoundly affected by the fact that men can turn their bodies against us and use it as a weapon." miral and an air force brigadier general-were heading for Casa Rosada (Pink House) just after midnight to demand Peron's resignation. MEANWHILE, troops occu- pied key positions throughout the country and a column of tanks was reported to be mov- ing into the capital from the Campo de Mayo base on the northeastern outskirts. Tanks were already in posi- tion in La Plata, capital of Buenos Aires Province where one third of the country's 27 million people live, and inform- ed sources said provincial Gov- ernor Victorio Calabro already has surrendered his post to an army general. See COUP, Page 2 City plans layoffs By RICK SOBLE Beginning July 1, the city will probably start laying off municipal employes in an effort to balance the general fund budget, according to Adminis- trator Sylvester Murray. Murray announced his- pro- jected city budget for the fiscal year of 1976-77 last Monday night, and the figures were not promising. E S T I M A T E D revenues were calculated at $20,194,370, while expenses were estimated at $21,442,580; a budget deficit of $1,248,000. Murray will present the offic- ial city budget to Council on April 12, and he promises it will be balanced, even if work- ers have to be laid off. If Murray does propose lay- offs on April 12, Council will still have the option of rejecting the plan before any actual fir- ing could begin on July 1. THE CITY could also choose to make up the projected bud- get deficit by trying to increase revenues rather than cutting back on expenses. Murray said that additional money could be raised by in- creasing property taxes or by asking for more state and fed- eral aid. He added, however, that local See CITY, Page 2 From Wire Service Reports RALEIGH, N. C. - Ron- ald Reagan won North Car- olina's Republican presi- dential p r i m a r y elec- tion last night, reviving his challenge for the White House with a startling up- set over President Ford. Ford conceded his first defeat, congratulated Rea- gan - and said he remains confident of victory in the contest for the Republican presidential nomination. D E M O C R A T I C front- runner 'Jimmy Carter won his primary test in a runaway over George Wallace and four other entries. Reagan's first triumph after a season of primary defeats was magnified by the fact that it was unexpected, the comeback he needed to silence suggestions that he quit the campaign. The reasons for his victory embraced the light voter turn- out, which favored him be- cause of his more committed supporters, and his tough cam- paign speeches in which he at- tacked Secretary of State Hen- ry Kissinger and the Ford Ad- ministration's policy of detente with, the Soviet Union. HE WON comfortably against the odds. With all of the ballots count- ed, Reagan. had 52 per cent of the Republican, Ford 46. In the Democratic race, for- mer Georgia Governor Carter scored an expected victory over Alabama Governor George Wal- lace, taking 54 per cent of the vote and boosting his string of primary victories to five. REAGAN WAS flying from LaCrosse, Wis., to Los Angeles after the election ended.

Trowbridge is officially an- nouncing his candidacy today during a 9 a.m. press confer- ence at the Holiday Inn, West Bank. TROWBRIDGE, the first poli- tician to proclaim his candidacy in this race, is presently round- ing off the first year of his two year term as an Ann Arbor councilman. According to Trowbridge, he has been asked to run for the congressional office by "some of the key leaders in town." "I've been asked many times to run," he said yesterday, "but I just began taking it seriously two or three weeks ago. As soon as I was sure that I had the support, I decided I wanted to do it." TROWBRIDGE said he is wi lling to work "masochistical- ly" at paring down government bM reau racy which he maintains "hns just gotten too damn big." "I would like to think that I could at least miake some noise in Washington," he said. Should Trowbridge land the post which will go up for grabs in this November's general elec- tion, he would be forced to sur- render his duties as city coun- cilman. See TROWBRIDGE, Page 2 Financial difficulties- closingMatrix* seek support to re-open By MB DILLON Ann Arbor's Matrix Theater, a division of the non-profit New World Media Project, Inc. will close its doors on April 9, 1976 due to financial difficulty. Reopening of the community theater will depend on the outcome of a refinancing drive that will run until April 11. "Our immediate refinancing goal is $20,000," said Dallas Kenny, general coordinator of the New World Media Project. "THAT WOULD put us back on the track for a year and pay off the members of the Ann Arbor community who loaned us money," he said. The Matrix is a small community theater that presents local talent shows, special childrens' programs, live theater and regular film showings. Kenny said he believes that there are a lot of people in Ann Arbor who want to support a community theater like the Matrix but so far he has received very little aid. "IF WE DON'T come up with the money it'll be curtains for us," he said. "We'll be bankrupt." BULLETIN DALLAS RP--Secretary of State Henry Kissinger refused to rule out a U.S. invasion of Cuba yesterday after saying the Ford administration is serious in its warnings against further Cuba intervention in Africa. Kissinger was asked specifically whether the U.S. might invade Cuba if it defied his warnings. Ile said, "I do not want to answer that question." He also said, "What we will do I can't say, but we are serious, and we have pointed this out to Cuba. We were accused of not making our issues clear in A m m lo h, - . -- ti.,..t ..- 4 .._,.. 7, ...., , ..
