YORKTOWN, N.Y. - The family of
missing Seagrams' whisky heir Samuel
Bronfman, 21, said yesterday that they
have complied with all the demands
made in a letter from kidnapers and are
awaiting further instructions. A family
spokesynan said the "substantial" ran-
som demanded had been gathered and
that the next move is up to the kidnap-
ers of Bronfman, who has been missing
since last Saturday morning. The spokes-
man declined to reveal the letter's other
demands, but he noted that although the
FBI and local officials were involved in
the investigation, the family was pro-
ceeding with independent negotiations
with the kidnapers.
WASHINGTON -The Army disclosed
yesterday the first known death result-
ing from extensive Army-sponsored tests
with mind-affecting drugs. It announced
that a 32-year-old male civilian patient
died in January 1953 "in the course of
a drug test program administered by
the New York State Psychiatric In-
stitute under an Army contract." He
died after receiving an injection of a
mescaline derivative. The man was a
patient at the institute and never knew
that he was the subject of a drug test,
according to a spokesman for the New

York State Mental Hygiene Dept.
VAIL, Colo.-President Ford has put
off, perhaps until later in the week, a
decision on whether to challenge a U.S.
Court of Appeals ruling that his $2-a-
barrel oil import tariff is illegal. Press
Secretary Ron Nessen said yesterday the
President is continuing consultations
with his energy and legal aides in
Washington by telephone.

State
LANSING-There will be no attempt
to override Gov. William Milliken's veto
of the teacher strike bill because the
votes simply are not there, House Speak-
er Bobby Crim (D-Davison) said yes-
terday. The bill would have permitted
strikes of up to four weeks with no
economic sanctions for the first two.
Crim charged that Milliken "has arbi-
trarily committed the state of Michigan
to running the risk of another Crestwood
or Garden City." Crestwood and Garden
City were hit last year by the most bit-
ter teacher disputes in the state's his-
tory.
Local
Late Monday night City Council voted
7-3 to temporarily close a portion of the
westside Dolph Park because of re-

ported rowdyism. The area closed by
Council, commonly referred to as the
"Gravel Pit," is a beach frequented by
"skinny-dippers." Although the closing
was greeted enthusiastically by Council,
the majority held that it was the only
solution to the problem until the park-
land is annexed by the city to place it
within the jurisdiction of local police.
The closing, with no target date for re-
opening, is effective immediately. Sher-
iff's deputies have been requested to
arrest trespassers. Council members
Carol Jones (D-Second Ward), Jamie
Kenworthy (D-Fourth Ward) and Kathy
Kozachenko (HRP-Second Ward) voted
against the motion.
Tonight's events include a feminist-
socialist meeting at 7:30 over at Corn-
tree Co-op, 1910 Hill St.
Weather
If you're going to be outside today you
had better carry along an umbrella be-
cause there will be a 50 per cent chance
of thunder showers throughout the day.
Temperatures will be in the mid-80's
with winds from the south to south-west
at 5-15 m.p.h. It is expected to be partly
cloudy thru Saturday with the mercury
reading between 55-85.

WASHINGTON (P) -The Pre-
sidential Clemency Board said
yesterday it has granted about
6,000 unconditional pardons to
persons who received punitive
military discharges or were con-
victed of desertion or draft
dodging in the Vietnam war
era.
The figure represents about
half of the 12,000 cases the board
has acted on to date. A back-
log of more than 4,000 cases re-
mains to be processed, a task
which board Chairman Charles
Goodell said he expects to be

completed when the board ex-
pires by law on Sept. 15.
THOSE WHO did not receive
pardons were granted pardons
conditioned on work in public
service jobs ranging from 3 to
12 months, Goodell said. A few
were required to work more
than a year, he added.
The board turned down about
700 persons for any degree of
clemency.
About 21,000 persons applied
to the board, but the number

was reduced to between 15,000
and 16,000 because many were
found to be ineligible. These in-
cluded some who committed of-
fenses in World War I and World
War It.
ANOTHER 100,000 persons eli-
gible for clemency did not ap-
ply to the board because of con-
fusion about the program or lack
of motivation, Goodell said.
The board does not consider
cases involving unconvicted
draft dodgers or deserters, or
persons who fled the country to
avoid prosecution.
"As distinct from the Justice
and Defense Department pro-
grams, all of our applicants had
already been punished for their
offenses," said Goodell.
