V g 9 0f i Page Twelve THE MICHIGAN DAILY Friday, July 24, 1970 CHIEFS WON'T PRACTICE All-Star ZZI P Mfrligi~a :43 rt game Vol. LXXX, No. 52-S Ann Arbor, Michigan-Friday, July 24, 1970 Ten Cents hit by W WASHINGTON (4) - The National Football League Players Association de- cided yesterday against letting the Kan- sas City Chiefs report to training camp as the Federal Mediation and Concilia- tion Service announced both sides in the pro football contract dispute had agreed to meet today. The NFLPA decision not to let the world champion Chiefs start practicing for the July 31 College All-Star Game put the future of the annual charity event in serious jeopardy. NFL owners had offered to lift the lockout of the Chiefs' camp in order to save the game. Federal mediators said both the own- ers' negotiating committee and the NFLPA had agreed to sit down today in Philadelphia and resume contract talks, which have been stalemated over 10 days. The announcement from the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service came after planned meetings at its of- fices in Washington and Baltimore had fallen through, John Mackey, president of the play- ers' association, said the other teams in the league also had shown their firm boycott stand by reaffirming their support of the association. Mackey, said the players were ready to sit- with the owners day and night to resolve any differences as soon as pos- sible. Owners of the 26 NFL teams earlier had said they wanted the talks held in the New York area, and described the stalemated negotiations as "days and possibly weeks apart." George Halas of the Chicago Bears and ~Lamar Hunt of the Kansas City Chiefs, presidents respectively of the National and American conferences, had said the Kansas City camp would be opened immediately if the players asso- ciation directed Chiefs' players to re- port. Most of the NFL teams have begun practices for rookies, but experienced players have been locked out of camp by the owners and forbidden by the players' association from reporting to camp. The main contract disagreement is over payments into the players' pension fund. The two sides reportedly are more than $17 million apart over a four-year contract.

PAUL George Mitterwald's 405-foot home run carried Bert Blyleven, the major league's youngest player, and the Minnesota Twins to a four-hit, 2-1 victory over the Detroit Tigers last night. Mitterwald, who also had two MORE NEAT SPORTS See Page 11 singles, connected off Joe Niek- ro, 10-8, for the tie-breaking run in the seventh inning that gave the 19-year-old Blyleven his fourth victory. The Twins had tied the game 1-1 on Rich Reese's single and a two-base error. Harmon Kil- THE NOTED sociologist David Riesman has argued that you can tell a lot about a nation from the way they treat their children. He feels that the United States has, for most of its 194 years, baen a child-oriented society, a society in which parents would work not so much to better themselves, but rather one in which the thrust of the parents' labor was directed towards insuring a better life for their kids. If the above picture is any indication, those days are on the wane and indeed already may have passed. The bright-eyed and bushy-tailed pussycat in the above picture is not standing in for Ronald Reagan in a Cecil B. DeMille epic saga of the old west. Poor old Tom has just found out that he has won the fashion show seg- ment of the 1970 All-American Glamour Kitty Pageant in Miami Beach, and, judging from his expression, he couldn't really give a damn. The picture, I fear, can hardly do justice to the truly osten- tatious red, white and blue cowboy outfit Tom didn't choose to go with his slightly shrunk 10-gallon hat. And because Tom's owners are from Dallas, Tom's outfit is given added splendor by a Lone Star of Texas immaculately embroidered on his back. After watching a few beauty pageants where the contest- ants are described as -if they were cattle, I am beginning to share the disgust with these events so forcefully expressed by women's liberation. But who, pray tell, is going to stand up for Tom? When a poor simple kittycat is put in such an unnatural condition, is it any wonder that animal psychiatry is becoming a legitimate business? Who will speak for those who can only meow and bark? The love given Tom and thousands of pets like him by owners who flaunt the little dears in countless shows is a sick and selfish love. Cats and dogs are neither things nor people, they are but animals, unperturbed with a moral sense. The love that a pet can give his owner is a simple one, and the demands he makes upon his owner are few and unseflish. When Tom was a small kitten, his heart was pure and unspoiled. But now, Tom is probably something of a sourpuss. It just isn't natural to dress a cat up like a Barbie doll and expose him to multitudes of curious people, bright lights and flashbulbs. A love that bends and shapes its object is really no love at all. Any society that can crush the love of something so simple as a cat or a dog would logically have great trouble in under- standing something as complicated as the love of a child. To love a child is not always an easy thing, but it is the com- plexity of this love that makes it that much more rewarding than loving a pet, providing that the child is loved for what he is. And as for Tom, he'll just have to put up with it-little realizing that, just like the rest of us, all he really needs is love. trip by lebrew then dribbled a slow grounder to first and Detroit first baseman Norm Cash's throw home was too late.

The Orioles, who lost their igers first game against the new Roy- als last season and then won 11 in a row, have beaten Kansas City nine times this season, pull- ing within one of the major league record of 21 set by the New York Yankees against the St. Louis Browns in 1927. , * * * Pirates gain PITTSBURGH - Dave Cash, who tripled in a run and scored in a three-run second inning, capped a three-run eighth with a sacrifice fly and the Pitts- burgh Pirates overcame the At- lanta Braves 6-5 last night.

Canada's Toomas Arusee cap- tured t h e 200-meter butterfly and Beverly Boys won the wo- men's highboard diving. In action yesterday afternoon, Marilyn Neufville, a 17-year-old London schoolgirl from Jamai- ca, set a world record of 51 sec- onds flat for the women's 400 meters at the British Common- wealth Games and then refused to say a word about it. She sat with her team manager, Nor- man Hill, at a bizarrenews con- ference and just silently shook her head at every question. Miss Neufville has been a fig- ure of controversy since she de- cided to run for Jamaica in the games. She has competed for Britain in international match- es but defied British officials and missed a meet against East Germany in order to train with the Jamaican team. Hill said, "She is very tense and since her future position is in doubt she doesn't want to put hier foot in It." The Jamaican girl knocked seven tenths of a second off the record, jointly held by French girls Nicole Ducies and Colette Besson. It was the first track a n d field world record of the Games, which saw Games records con- tinue to fall in both track and swimming. ,,,,,,,, ..

Plamondon, currently on the FBI's ten most wanted list, was charged with car- rying a concealed weapon At the time of his apprehension, he was accompanied by Milton "Skip" Taube,' White Panther' Party Minister of Defense, and John W. Forest, Detroit Region Minister of Edu- cation for the party. According to a spokesman for the Michigan State Police, Taube and Forest are also being held on the concealed weapons charge. Forest is also under indictment in the bombing case, but he was arrested and released on bail when the Detroit grand jury handed down the indictment against him Oct. 8. The arrest of Plamondon came about quite by accident. The three men were driving in.the Cheboygan area when they were stopped and given a warning for littering, after one of the men threw a can of beer out of their car window. At the time of this encounter, Taube and Forest gave their their real names. Pla- mondon used an alias. in St. Police then put out a tracer, and when the three were identified, a bulletin was issued to apprehend them. Police at the Newberry post of the state police and the Mackinac County Sheriff's department arrested them at about 1:30 p.m. fifty miles West of St. Ignace A derringer was found on Plamondon, leading to the concealed weapons' charge. Panther Minister of Information Ken Ign ace Kelley called the carrying concealed wea- pons' charge, "a ruse," adding that neither Taube nor Forest were carrying weapons. Kelley added that Taube would probably be held on a charge of aiding and abetting a federal fugitive, a felony, carrying a maximum penalty of 10 years and a $10,000 fine. State police indicated that no such charge had been lodged and could only be lodged by the FBI. The FBI has refused to comment on any aspect of the arrest. A statement issued by Kelley indicated that the three men, currently being held in the Mackinac County Jail, would be moved to Wayne County Jail and ar- raigned there today. However, neither the State Police nor the FBI would confirm the report. Kelley said he feared ball for Plamon- don could be set as high as $100,000 or $200,000. State Polilce said that Plamondon ad- ditionally has outstanding narcotics charges against him in New Jersey, Il- linois and Michigan. and also is wanted in Michigan on obscenity charges. State Police said that federal treasury departments agents also have a federal warrant charging him with furnishing false information to gun dealers for putr- chasing firearms.
