Buzhardt also contacted spe-
cial Watergate prosecutor Archi-
bald Cox to express the White
House's "very severe concern,"
Ziegler said, adding that Buz-
hardt had acted "immediately
and automatically on his own,"
rather than on Nixon's orders.
ASKED ABOUT a possible pre-
sidential appearance before the
Senate Watergate committee,
Ziegler said: "There's no consid-
eration being given that at all"
In federal court yesterday,
Roy Sheppard was granted im-
munity for his testimony before
the Senate committee which re-
sumes its televised hearings June
s. Sheppard is the trucking com-
pany employe who removed car-
tons of documents from the
White House after the Watergate
breakin last year, reportedly on
orders.
William Iundley attorney for
fortmer Ails.(en JohiMitchell,
appeared at the courthouse to pick
up two grand jur exhibits lie
said were Mitchell's appointment
diaries.
HE SAID he is taking the note-
books to New York for a pre-trial
hearing Wednesday in the case
involving a $200,0100 contribution
tn Nixon's 1972 eelictuonamn-
paign.

At a White louse briefing yes-
terday, Henry Kissinger acknowl-
edged his office supplied the
names of Kissinger aides to be
tapped in an investigation of
news leaks in 1969.
"IT WAS LEGAL, it followed
regular procedures and it follow-
ed established criteria," the
President's national security ad-
viser told newssmen.
"I don't find wiretapping a
particularl attractive proced-
ure," Kissinger said. "I don't
find leakage of documents a par-
ticularly attractive procedure."
He said his office "supplied the
names of some individuals who
had access to the information
being investigated." Asked to ex-
plain the reference to his office,
Kissinger reolied:
"I'M RESPONSIBLE for what
happens in my office and I
wouldn't give the names of who
did it."
Kissinger, responding to a ques-
tion, said he does not intentd to
resign because of controversy
surrounding his role in the mat-
ter. As to the damage of his
o w n credibility, Kissinger re-
plied: "I'm not the best judge of
my own credibility."

Rainbow people sue
govt. over wiretaps

(Continued from Page 1)
violated their clientn' constitu-
tional rights.
Last August the U. S. Supreme
Court ruled that the government
had to reveal the information or
cease prosecution. The govern-
ment dropped all charges against
the three.
The suit alleges the surveil-
lance methods employed in the
case violated the trio's right to
free speech and "to engage in
unfettered political expression."
CURRENTLY the RPP attor-
neys, Hugh "Buck" Davis of
Detroit and Peter Weisman in
the capital, are seeking a court
order forcing the FBI to release
details of the wiretapping opera-
tion. They expect litigation may
prevent the actual suit from be-
ing heard for at least a year.
During the press conference,
Sinclair spoke for the group and
consistently tried to link the
surveill'snce of RPP to the Water-
-gate and Ellsberg incidents.
"The entire affair is part of a
government fabrication to sup-

press all opposition political par-
ties," S in clIa ir said. "WThey
painted us as being subversives
and crazies.
"THE GOVERNMENT had its
tirn, now we will get our day in
court."
He added that lie hoped the soit
would provide "vindication for
the fosr-year smear campaign
w-ged by the federal govern-
nient" against RPP.
Sincl'sir indicated RPP will file
a similar suit against State At-
torney General Frank Kelley in
nnection with the case now pend-
connection with the case now
pending against Plamondon and
snother party member.
The two have been charged
with armed robberv and several
other felonies while making a
msarijuana deal. Their trial is
scheduled to begin on July 16.
SINCLAIR SAID Plamondon is
being made the subject of "po-
litical persecution" by the state
authorities. He sould not, how-
ever, sy when the Kelley suit
=sill he filed.

PRESIDENTIAL ADVISER HENRY KISSINGER, who said yes-
terday that wiretapping is "a distasteful thing," but acknowledged
that his office supplied the names of Kissinger aides to be tapped
in an investigation of news leaks.

end of April.
" Safety corridors are to be set
up for personnel of- one side to
travel through the territory of
the other.
* Step-by-step demobilization
will be carried out by both sides.
Both sides will establish poits
of entry for the replacement of
war material on a one-for-one
basis.
* All remaining military and
civilian prisoners of war will be
released.
THERE WAS no guarantee that
the new pact, as reported by the
sources here, would work any
better than the original cease-
fire. The rules for enforcement
as described by the informants
remain basically the same as in
the Jan. 27 agreement.

But there are provisions in the
new accord to facilitate the work
of the International Commission
of Control and Supervision and
the Joint Military Commission
composed of South Vietnamese
and Viet Cong delegations.
Perhaps even more significant
were reports that Washington has
applied pressure on President
Nguyen Van Thieu to keep his
side of the bargain.
U.S. MILITARY and economic
aid keeps the Thieu regime afloat
and gives plenty of levers for
U.S. officials to apply.
U.S. economic aid was also
seen as a factor in getting Hanoi
to nake the Viet Cong hold to
their word, President Nixon has
warned indirectly of retaliation
bombing.

LSA rules Green
misused class time

"With r e s p e c t to Professor
Green's use of the slide show,
there is substantial doubt as to
the appropriateness of the pre-
sentation of the material in
Chemistry 227."
IN REGARD to Dunn's action,
the committee said despite the
lack of specific guidelines in the
case, "the chairman's action in
relieving Prof. Green of his
teaching duties was mistaken."
"It should be added," the re-
port continued, "that Prof. Dunn
infortted the Executive Commit-
tee of his intentions,and that the
committee must therefore share
responsibility for this action."
Dunn refused to comment on
the decision until he had time to
"seriously study the document."
Green also refused to comment.
GREEN WAS DENIED tenure
by the Chemistry department
later in the year. However, the
review released yesterday dealt
only with the Ad Hoc commit-
tee decision.
Committee member Raymond
Grew said "I think an extra-
ordinary effort was made to be
fair. What we came up with was
something we all believed to be
correct."
He was particularly concern-
ed with the definition of academ-
ic freedom. The report found
both the University and the 'i-

vidual faculty member to be re-
sponsible for academic freedom.
"At the same time, a faculty
member has responsibility to be
circumspect in the presentation
of material . . . This responsibil-
ity was lightly assumed in this
case," the report concluded.

Bergren indicated the c i t y
might incur problems because of
the price increase. The city has
only budgeted a four cent per
gallon increase, he said.
THE CITY originally sought
contract offers on gasoline last
April but no companies entered
bids. Several weeks ago the city
tried again. Of 14 firms con-
tacted, only Gulf submitted an
offer.
"We are feeling the fuel short-
age squeeze, just like everyone
else," commented Acting City Ad-
ministrator George Owers last
last m'ght.
