Judge orders
Detroit recount
DETROIT (AP)-A federal judge
ruled yesterday that the Census Bureau
seriously undercounted the nation's
1980 population, particularly
minorities, and gave the bureau 30 days
to propose a plan for increasing its
figures by at least 5 million people.
U.S. District Judge Horace Gilmore,
ruling in a case brought by the city of
Detroit, said that the adjustment must
be made before the census.figures can
be used to reapportion Congress of
distribute federal funds.
THE BUREAU HAS estimated as
much as $500 billion in government aid
will be apportioned nationwide based
on the 1980 headcount. Detroit said it
lost $52 million in federal funds during
the last decade because 67,000 people
were missed in the 1970 census.
Commerce Secretary Philip Klut-
znick, whose department is in charge of
the Census Bureau, said in a statement:
"The question of appealing the decision
would have to be discussed with the at-
torneys and any final decision regar-
ding such an action would rest with the
solicitor general."
Detroit officials, who had sued on the
contention that the population of the
nation's sixth-largest city was under-
counted in the tally, hailed the ruling.
So did leaders of other big cities-many
of which have challenged census
estimates themselves.
"THAT'S GREAT . . . That's fan-
tastic," said Marion Barry Jr., the
major of Washington, D.C. Barry said
the census figures show the District of
Columbia with 635,000 residents-20,000
to 25,000 fewer than Barry claims.
In.New York City, where a similar
suit is pending, Mayor Edward Koch
said, "It's a terrific decision. We come"
under the same umbrella. We have the
same problems."
A census official in Washington who
asked not to be quoted by name reflec-
ted that "you can get a fairly good ad-
justment at the state level and perhaps
large cities, but below that you have the
problem of not ever being sure that ad-
justment is not worse than the original
count that you took."

Government urges women
to stop using Rely tampons
The government, in an attempt to reinforce warnings issued last week by
the FDA, urged women yesterday to stop using Rely tampons because they
may increase the risk of developing the sometimes-fatal toxic shock syn-
drome.
The disease is blamed for the deaths of 29 women since 1975. Procter and
Gamble officials estimated that all of the product will be off store shelves by
mid-October.
The FDA, in its warning last week, also said women using other brands
have suffered from the syndrome. It recommended that women reduce the
risk of contracting the disease by using napkins during part of their men-
strual periods, or stop using tampons altogether.
Rose Kennedy 'satisfactory'
follow ing intestinal surgery,. i5""II r
Ninety-year-old Rose Kennedy
was reported in satisfactory and
stable condition yesterday, one
day after she was hospitalized for
her second intestinal operation in
a year.
The head of the famous Ken-
nedy family and mother of a
president and two U.S. senators,
Kennedy underwent an operation
to remove a "kink" in her in-
testine, according to nursing
supervisor Priscilla Seerence
Dr. Russell Boles, who assisted ;
in the surgery, estimated that
Kennedy would be hospitalized
seven to 10 days. He said such an
operation is a routine procedure
for elderly patients with in-
testinal blockage.
Attorney General to appeal
ruling on Tisch Amendment
Attorney General Frank Kelley said yesterday he will appeal a new court
ruling on the handling of the Tisch Tax Cut Amendment, claiming the state's
right to control its own elections is at stake.
Kelley plans to file appeals simultaneously in two Michigan courts over
Ingham County Circuit Judge James 4Gidding's decision ordering that of-
ficial election posters state that the Tisch proposal would radically alter key
sections of the MichiganrConstitution.
Earlier this month, Giddings barred the Tisch proposal from the ballot,
ruling invalid petitions circulated for the bill because they did not mention
all of the constitutional provisions it would alter or abolish.
Zeppelin drummer dead
John Bonham, drummer of the internationally acclaimed rock group Led
Zeppelin, was found dead yesterday at the hone of the group's lead guitarist.
He was 32.
No apparent cause of death was reported. A spokesman for Atlantic
Records-International said no further statements would be issued until after
today's autopsy.
Police said the band had been rehearsing into the early hours of yesterday
morning at lead guitarist John Paul Jones' luxurious home on the banks of
the River Thames.
Actors make tentative pact
Members of the Screen Actors Guild and the American Federation of
Television and Radio Artists reached a tentative pact with movie and
television producers ,yesterday in Hollywood, but quick resumption of
filming may be blocked as dissatisfaction with some of the terms and expan-
ded picketing by musicians continues.
If the 67,000 combined-members of the guild and the AFTA approve the
new contract, they will end the longest strike to occur in the history of their
unions.
However, the major networks said it would still be at least six to eight
weeks before unfinished television programs could be completed after the
actors return to work.
