A2's weather
Generally cloudy with rain today, clear-
ing this afternoon and evening. A nice

THE FAMED PEDIATRICIAN and
peace advocate said that the field of
medicine in China has expanded to in-

helpers" that have worked to end the

rupting Spock with applause.
His appearance came about after many
graduating med. school students became
incensed at the school's refusal to invite
the controversial doctor to speak at the
S. Viets refuse to
recognize, any new
cease-fire accords
SAIGON hP-The South Vietnamese
government announced yesterday it does
not intend to sign any new cease-fire
agreements drawn up in Paris by the
United States and North Vietnam.
A second round of talks on bringing an
end to the present Vietnam cease-fire.
violations has been under way in the
French capital between Henry Kissinger
and Hanoi's Le Duc Tho since Wednesday.
AFTER THE announcement by the Sai-
gon government, the U.S. presidential
adviser called off a planned morning
session with Tho but showed up for the
scheduled afternoon meeting smiling and
jovial. He said he canceled the morning
session because "we just needed more
time to prepare something." He did not
say what it was.
The South Vietnamese announcement
raised the question in some quarters that
the government of President Nguyen Van
Thieu might be doubtful about accords
that could result from the Kissinger-Tho
meetings.
The announcement came from the gov-
ernment spokesman, Bui Bao Truc, who
said: "We are not going to sign anything."
ACCORDING TO the South Vietnamese,
the cease-fire documents signed on Jan.
27 were valid enough and the new sessions
in Paris were prompted only by what they
called the truce violations by the Viet Cong
and North Vietnamese.
Meanwhile, in Washington the House
Foreign Affairs Committee approved a
120-day deadline on the president's power
to commit U.S. armed forces abroad with-
out congressional approval. Unlike the
Senate's war powers bill, the House bill
covers the existing bombing in Cambodia.
Rights attacked the counter-commence-
ment exercise, labeling it as "additional
publicity for the University."
He added that "a once every four year
media stunt is no substitute for political
action", he claimed the medical school
students had neglected to take in the past.
NEXT ON THE evening's program was
Kay Weiss of the Advocates for Medical
Information (AMI). She spoke of her
group's research and effortsptokcurb the
experimental use of the drug DES on
involuntary subjects.
In her talk, Weiss also made references
to the controversial medical text "Obste-
trics and Gynecology," by Dr. J. R. Wilt-
son. Spock and the rest of the audience
exploded with applause as she labelled
the attacked book for equating "a wo-
man's role in life with a piece of shit."
The AMI and other campus groups burn-
ed the medical text and other books ear-
lier in the spring as a protest to their
usage as texts at the medical school.
THE NEXT SPEAKER was Kathy Okun
from the Free People's Clinic. tkun, with
a humorous air, suggested that the medi-
cal school had a very good idea when
they invited Young to speak, since he is
nut a doctor. She then suggested that
they were really inviting the character
Marcus Welby.
Okun concluded that it was "too bad"
the medical school had invited a man that
didn't even exist to speak at their com-
mencement.-
Spock introduced his new "radical" out-
look on politics as something "I wouldn't
have believed ten years ago."
