About50 federal and state officers converged in east-central North Dakota looking for Gordon Kahl and another man who were believed to have escaped from the Sunday evening shootout in Medina that killed two marshals, critically wounded a third, and injured two police officers, authorities said. FOUR PEOPLE have been arrested, including Kahl's wife and his son, who had been shot in the chin, chest and stomach and was in critical condition. Kahl had vowed he wouldn't be taken alive, a federal official said. Officers centered their search on a farm once owned by Kahl near Heaton, about 50 miles northeast of Medina. U.S. marshals had been trying to arrest Kahl for violating federal probation, and when officers learned he nanhunt was at a meeting in Medina on Sunday they set up a roadblock to arrest him. BUT THE suspects blasted their way out of the police net and disappeared in- to the sparsely populated countryside as darkness fell. Authorities believe they stole a deputy's car and were able to monitor police talk. Officers had to abandon regular radio communications. "It seemed like there was just a roar of gunfire," said Medina Polic~e Chief Darrell Graf, who was involved in the arrest attempt. KAHL HAD been found guilty in Texas in June 1977 of failing to file federal income tax returns and was sentenced to five years of supervised probation. He had asked for permission to move back to North Dakota, authorities in Texas said, and was sup- posed to report to a federal probation officer in Bismarck. "He didn't believe in nothing, only what he wanted to," said Sheriff Raymond Weatherby of Crane County, Texas.

MSA offices, 3909 Michigan Union Judge blocks ruling on birth control for minors lbnight there's something special brewing at uno's $TRO'S PITCHER AFTER /M. I (Congnued from Page 1) discourage teenagers from seeking bir- th control. A federal court hearing was held yesterday in Washington on a separate challenge to the ruling. THE REQUIREMENT - branded a "squeal rule" by its foes - orders clinics receiving federal funds under the family planning law to tell parents within 10 working days when their daughters age 17 or younger get prescriptions for birth control pills, diaphragms or intrauterine devices. The Reagan administration argues parents have a right to know what their children are doing, and claims the rule is justified by Congress' declaration. It wants to encourage "family par- ticipation" in birth control decisions. Claire Del Real, a Health and Human Services spokesman in Washington, said officials would have no comment until they receive the New York judge's order. ASKED IF it would be obeyed, she replied, "'We're very law-abiding citizens." At the Justice Department, there was no immediate word on whether there would be an appeal. The New York State Health Depar- tment, various health groups and state Attorney General Robert Abrams argued the regulation would reverse progress made in reaching adolescents who need family planning services and in "stemming the tide of unwanted adolescent pregnancies." JUDGE WERKER agreed, saying statistical and medical evidence shows the requirement would deter youths from obtaining family planning ser- vices. Even without birth control, he obser- ved, "Adolescents will not abstain from sexual activity." In Washington, Rep. Henry Waxman (D-Calif.), chairman of the health sub- committee that oversees family plan- ning programs, hailed the ruling. "The proposed rule is bad law and bad policy and will result only in more teenage pregnancies and more abor- tions," he said in a statement. "Today's court decision will mean that family planning programs will still reach adolescents and can still safely prevent pregnancies." Complied from Associated Press and United Press International reports FDIC closes Tenn. bank; 4th largest failure in history KNOXVILLE, Tenn.-The United American Bank, run by former World's Fair chairman Jake Butcher, was ordered closed yesterday due to "large and unusual" loan losses in the fourth largest bank failure in U. S. history. Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. officials said Butcher, a flamboyant, two-time Democratic candidate for governor who once loaned $435,000 to Bert Lance, had resigned as chairman of the bank he operated since 1975. His resignation was required under FDIC regulations. Butcher was ordered barred from the 27-story, blue-glass structure where he reigned supreme over the largest bank in East Tennessee. His name was - on a list of people not allowed into the bank. FDIC spokeswoman Julie Amberson in Washington said details of the problem loans were "not public information, at this point anyway." Arens replaces ousted Sharon JERUSALEM-Moshe Arens, Israel's hawkish ambassador to Washington, accepted the post of defense minister yesterday in place of the ousted Ariel Sharon, who quit the ministry saying, "I am not leaving a beaten man." The Knesset, Israel's Parliament, approved Sharon's removal on Prime; Minister Menachem Begin's request, but Sharon will remain in the cabinet.: Begin will hold the defense minister's authority until Arens is confirmed. Sharon, who ran the Defense Ministry for 18 months, will serve as a minister without portfolio. He resigned the defense post after the Cabinet approved findings of an Israeli judicial commission that Sharon bore: responsibility for allowing the Beirut massacre of Palestinians by Lebanese: Christian militiamen Sept. 16-18. The commission said Sharon should have stopped Christian militiamen: from committing the atrocity inside the Israeli-ringed Sabra and Chatilla camps. It also said Begin and other top officials bore partial responsibility. In Washington, Arens told Israel radio's correspondent: "The portfolio was offered by the prime minister ... I accepted it immediately."; Republicans to pick new leader LANSING - Michigan Republicans will gather in Detroit this weekend to: decide whether the troubled GOP's fortunes should be entrusted to a veterani party official or one of two newer faces. Spencer Abraham of East Lansing, pollster for Republican Richard: Headlee's unsuccessful gubernatorial campaign, is widely seen as the fron trunner in the three-way contest, but it is far from clear he has locked it up. Chasing him are Richard Chrysler, a successful Livingston County businessman, and Ranny Riecker, long-time GOP national commit- teewoman from Midland. The contest is expected to be the lively highlight of an otherwise dull Friday-Saturday convention. Some feel a measure of bitterness cannot be: avoided, although others insist the party members will willingly pull together behind whoever emerges as the winner. Administration will protect EPA employee who squealed WASHINGTON - In a surprise turnabout, the administration reached a: negotiated settlement yesterday with a whistleblower at the Environmental Protection Agency, who said afterward he now has evidence that EPA: misdeeds go all the way to the White House. Hugh Kaufman, whose allegations have triggered a half-dozen congressional investigations into EPA's $1.6 billion "superfund" program,' called the settlement a victory both for him and for other agency employees who will be testifying before Congress in coming weeks. . . "This should send a signal to all EPA employees that they can get protec- tion if they testify," Kaufman said. After three hours of closed-door discussions, attorneys for both sides emerged with an eight-point agreement in which -the EPA promised to protect Kaufman's rights and Kaufman agreed to reimburse the agency for: personal long distance calls made at work. Asked about Kaufman's allegations of criminal conspiracy to deprive: Kaufman of his rights, EPA spokesman Chris Rice said, "We have no knowledge of any criminal wrongdoing. However, if Mr. Kaufman has: evidence of a criminal act, it is his responsibility to turn that evidence over to the Department of Justice." Pentagon bargains with base closings to save 1iitary budget WASHINGTON - A key defense official says the Pentagon may haul out a list of proposed base closings and challenge congressmen to bear some of the: brunt "if the heat gets heavy" for deep cuts in the military budget. The official, who discussed the matter only on condition that he not be: identified, denied threatening Congress. But his message, in a recent inter-: view, obviously was designed as food for political thought on Capitol Hill. "We've got a list of bases we'd like to get rid of," he said. At the same time, he made clear that the list could be left to gather dust if members of the Senate and House don't delve too deeply into President Reagan's $238.6 billion military spending program for fiscal 1984. If they do, he suggested, they should be willing to share the sacrifices -: including the risk of voter dismay over the loss of local facilities. The list includes some bases the Pentagon has been trying to close for nearly a decade, the official said. But he did not name any specific locations. "All we'd have to do would be to reach into the bottom drawer and pull out the list," he said. oJbje £t-Otan WaOu Vol. XCIII, No. 112; Tuesday, February 15, 1983 The Michigan Daily is edited and managed by students at The University of Michigan.

"I'm not suggesting corruption," said the medical school's Stuart Baggaley, who had to watch the Plant Department put up his $3000 wall. "It just simply isn't cost efficient." OTHER MANAGERS say they are content with the work done by the Plant Department, but they say they don't have the background to know if private contractors- would be able to do the work any cheaper since they've always used the University. Plant Department Director Russell Reister defends the costs involved in most of the work. He said his office of- ten sends workers out in teams, even when only one person is necessary, in SHORT OR LONG Hairstyles for Men and Women DASCOLA STYLISTS Liberty off State.......668-9329 east U. at South U......662-0354 Arborland...............971-9975 Maple Village..........761-2733 order to eliminate the need for more trucks. If teams were split for jobs in which only one person was needed, "we'd have to have twice as many trucks," Reister said. Reister also said the .department's charges were not excessive. He said managers tend to base their ideas of what constitutes a reasonable cost on what it would cost them to do it them- selves, rather than the cost of having a professional contractor do it. "They don't understand safety regulations," Reister said. "Quite honestly, they lack the technical knowledge' to make good, sound judgements." Reister may be right. But the ad- ministrator who paid several hundred dollars to have a shed put up sees the situation differently. "You know," he said, "it was one of those things they say you can put up in your backyard in an afternoon."
