Muskie has urged President Nixon to take a new initiative toward ending the Vietnam war by proposing a cease-fire. The Maine Democrat said in an interview though he supports peace efforts being made by the President, the time has come for a fresh approach. Vietnam “would show that we are really serious about negotiations.” But Muskie said, “I think the President should propose a cease-fire. It would involve some risks, of course, but If we are ever going to end the war we will have to take risks.

Clifford says that ih view of changes in the world situation, the United States can and should reduce the fighting in Vletoam and, by the end of 1970, withdraw all ground combat troops. ' Clifford served President Lyndon B. Johnson through 1968 as secretary of defense. His statement, at times scorchingly critical of the Saigon government, argues that the basic U.S. objective — to keep the Communist North from seizing the South — has been largely accomplished. He says he contended while in office that “the more we continued to do in South Vietnam, the iess likely the South Vietnamese were to shoulder their own burden.” “Nothing we might do pould be so beneficial or could so add to the political maturity of South Vietnam as to begin to withdraw our com'iat troops,” he writes In the current Foreign Affairs, quarterly of the Council on Foreign Relations. ‘NOHHNG MORE ’TO GAIN’ “Moreover, In, my opinion, we cannot realistically expect to achieve anything more through our military force, and the time has come to begin to disengage.” lu, 1965, Clifford writes, Hanoi-sup-ported forces were about to take over the South and only a heavy U.S. military presence could prevent it. Muskie conceded search and destroy missims might be necessary to hold down casualties sustained by U.S. troops if they fought only on the defensive. However, he said what he is interested in is holding fighting to a level that will not dilute the credibility of American peace overtures. Clifford said in an article in the quarterly Foreign Affairs, that all American ground troops should be removed from the war zone by the end of 1970. Clifford’s article switched him and present Defense Secretary Melvin R. Laird to opposite positions from those they held last year. Laird said during the presidential campaign there was a Pentagon plan for withdrawal of 90,000 U.S. troops by the end of 1969. As secretary, Clifford called a news conference to deny it.

The leaders, also Democrats, are concerned a court decision favoring Powell would produce the uninspiring spectacle of Congress defying the law by refusing to pay up. SAGINAW (AP)—A man and woman were slain and two persons wounded in a downtown Saginaw bar today in a wild shooting spree for which police said they could find no motive. After pumping three bullets into a woman and two into a man, police said the gunman then turned his 45-caliber pistol on himself, inflicting a wound in his side. In its decision Monday that Powell was illegally, excluded from his seat two years ago, the Supreme Court said his claim for back pay would have to be decided by a lower court. Although eager to avoid a trial and its consequences, the leaders decided at a meeting yesterday there would be no offers of partial payment or return of Powell’s seniority or restoration of his chairmanship of the House Education and Labor Committee. PARIS (AP) - The United States and South Vietnam accused the other side today of undermining the Vietnam peace talks by demanding the ouster of the Saigon government and by trying to achieve its alms by force and “terror. The charges were made at the 22nd full-scale session of the talks. Ambassador Lawrence E. Walsh, speaking in the absence of the chief U.S. negotiator, Henry Cabot Lodge, described as inflexible and rigid the attitude of North Vietnam and the Vietcong-backed provisional revolutionary governm^ril. South Vietnam’s representative, Pham Dang Lam, said; “Your attitude clearly lacks the .good faith which is essential in all serious negotiations.

Ho.lly Light Due for Busy Corner
HOLLY — The much sought-after traffic light at North Holly and Grange Hall roads is forthcoming, according to County Road Commission officials.
Paul Forsberg, chairman of WHAR (Why Have Awful Roads), said the road commission has scheduled the traffic light project for late summer.
The WHAR committee and local residents have pressured the road commission and government officials for the traffic light period for over a year.
A light is desired at the intersection because of the increasingly heavy load of commuter traffic to the Flint area from Holly.
The majority of these sessions have entailed explanation of teacher contract proposals and discussion of noneconomic matters such as medical insurance benefits administrative controls, class sizes, school calendar, etc.
Money matters gradually are becoming the focal point of discussions.

Several districts in Northern Oakland county area are reportedly “close” to contract settlement with a few barely past the opening explanation rounds due to pending millage votes and failures.
However, administrators anticipate a long, hot summer at the negotiation table since in many cases these school boards have little to work with in terms
Bcxrf-Bait-Cabin Firm Is Denied Okay to Repair
WEST BLOOMFIELD TOWNSHIP -A Pine Lake boat and cabin-tental and bait store has been denied permission to repair damages caused when a car smashed into it recently.
Owners of the business say the Township Board of Appeajs is Violating their rights and those of the public.
Shorty Hook’s Place, 3730-3735 Orchard Lake, had been classified as a non-conforming commercial property since it and several nearby commercial establishments were rezoned residential in June 1966.
t * *
The board based its denial this week on estimated that repairs will cost more than 50 per cent of the building’s value. Owners deny this. Board members .say the building’s assessed valuation— the 50 per cent figure—is the maximum allowed for repair of non-conforming buildings.
CONDEMNATION NEXT
Condemnation proceedings are expected next, according to Mrs. Evelyn Tholl, co-owner of the business. It has been in operation more than 40 years.
Several properties along Orchard Lake Road bordering Pine Lake were rezoned in June 1966 from commercial to residential because of inadequate parking facilities, according to board of appeals Chairman Thomas Papez.
The rezonlng was part of a "Master Plan of the Future” worked out by various associations on the lake, according to Mrs. Tholl.
“Not only do we feel that our rights arc being violated but also those of the public which has made use of Pine Lake.
LAKE IS STOCKED “Indeed, the State of Michigan stocks Pine Lake for use by the public. The loss of businesses on Pine Lake would in effect make Pine Lake a private lake, thus depriving the public of one more recreational area,” she said.

of negotiating money due to the trend of millagd defeats last ^ring, inflation, rapidly increasing enrollments and limited state aid.
FALLING SHORT
Birmingham, for example, anticipated a need for $1.5 million as a must for negotiation money but is down instead to $600,000.
It is expected that board negotiators will be firmer than usual in resisting salary increases for teachers since cutbacks in both administrative and teaching areas will be in the offing subject to the outcome of negotiations.
Despite the threat of intensive cutbacks in some district after settlements are reached, superintendents feel their salary scales will have to strike a balance with the scales reached in districts that have already settled.
Negotiations get particularly difficult according to Richard Fell, assistant superintendent for business affairs in the Pontiac Schools, in districts which have a higher percentage of long-term teachers, who draw the maximum on the scale.
NOT FOR 3 MONTHS
Pontiac officials do not expect contract ratification until September.
Some of the smaller districts have a larger percentage of beginning teachers or staffers with only two to four years experience, which makes for a smaller wage package. Settlements in these di.stricts usually a(te wrapped up earlier.
* ★ *
Average starting minimum ranges in ratified contracts are in the $730047500 range.
Clyde Fisher, superintendent of the Brandon District — where negotiations are now at an impasse until a repeat millage election is held in July — said, “We know we are going to have to settle somewhere in that average bracket if we are to remain competitive, regardle.ss of the district’s poor financial situation.” *
AMOUNTS ASKED
The_4^verage minimum salary request in most contract proposals is around $8,000. Across-the-board requests for all teachers, averaged around $1200 to $1500.
The highest minimums accorded teachers in Southeastern Michigan thus far Include $7,600 in Utica and $7,800 in Dearborn. Detroit teachers agreed to increases approximating the average of increases in school systems in Wayne County’s largest cities.

Bargaining in most districts has been stepped up to several hours per day until settlements are reached.

Avon Planners Oppose Proposal to Buil(d Retail Business Setup
AVON TOWNSHIP - Planning commissioners last night unanimously recommended denial for a request to build a lawnmower and snow equipment sales and service store smack in the middle of a $45,000-and-up residential area.
Applicant was Vern H o u g h t e n , represented by attorney Robert Childs, who asked for the rezoning of 3.9 acres on Walton Boulevard abutting Lochmoor Hills subdivision (Shagbark Road) from single-family residential to retail business to include lawn mower and snow equipment sales and service, a furniture store and offices.

Livonia Votes, Joins SEMCOG
Livonia (population 110,000) joined the Southeastern Michigan Council o f Governments (SEMCOG) last night by a 5-2 city council vote, SEMCOG Chairman William Mainland of Milford disclosed this morning.
Livonia’s entry follows the withdrawal of Troy from SEMCOG. Councilman Jerry Raymond spoke for the Livonia council majority, saying, “If we do not completely approve of SER|COG as it is, the place to do changing would be as a member rather than as a nonmember on the sidelines.”
★
Mainland said that the Troy issue was not brought, up by the Council or Mainland, but the atmosphere denoted awareness of rumblings by Troy, Hazel Park and Royal Oak.
Rochester Knolls subdivisions. Abiding Presence Lutheran Church and more than 200 signatures on a petition from township residents at large. In all, objectors presented more than 4 0 0 signatures on petitions.
Childs declared that Walton Boulevard was “undesirable” for residential frontage and that Houghten’s plans for his property would provide enough distance between his business and individual homes to prevent a nuisance situation.
‘STRIP ZONING’
Stanley Ppchia, 126 Shagbark, led off the opposition, claiming that Houghten’s proposal would cause “rubbish, noise, traffic problems, smoke and bright night lights.” Pachla added that the request was one for “strip zoning,” a practice the planning commission has previously declared verboten for Avon Township.
Henry Schreiber, 157 Tartan, said the residents bought their homes “in full confidence that the area would never be" zoned anything but singid-home residential. I assume Mr, Houghton bought his property with the^||tme knowledge.”
Childs then argued that the heavy traffic on Walton would not be desirable for residential purposes and that the zoning should be changed for a more suitable purpose. — like Houghten’s proposal.
“Two wrongs do not make a right,” Schreiber countered. “Because we have a traffic problem does not mean that it should be compounded by another entrance and exit traffic situation. And, by the, most of Walton near Lochmoor is used for single-home residential.”
TRUSTEE REVIEW DUE
'The commission’s planning consultant and engineering firms both presented studies of the request and both recommended denial of the rezoning.
The question will come before the next Avon Township board of trustees meeting, June 25, for final decision.
Vote, Recall Drives Mapped in Troy District
TROY — A kickoff and a kick-out are on the agenda for Monday’s pubUc meeting of dtitens Acting for Responsible Education (CARE), beginning at 7:30 p.m. at Troy High School, Uvemois at Big Beaver Road.
Besides announcing promotional plans for the $7.2-million building bond proposition on the July 28 sdioot ballot, , CARE members will map plans for a recall election against school board Treasurer Harold Janes.
★ k k
CARE Vice Chairman Jack B. Muir announced June 11 that If Janes did not resign hiS [k)st voluntarily, his organization would organize a recall drive.
Upshot was Janes’ instigation of a state attorney general’s investigation into financial mismanagement by the Troy Board of Education and administration. ’The attorney general’s report was released three weeks ago, completely vindicating present and former board members and finding the administration only technically guilty of misusing $105,000 of a 1965 bond issue.
STORMY EXIT
At that June 11 meeting, Muir’s declaration of war against Janes was followed by the stormy exit of Janes, Board Trustee Leonard Lucas and a former board candidate, Mrs. Melania Francuck.
Board members Rev. Richard C. Snoad, Robert W. Dolmage and Donald W. Richards, along with former trustees Gordon R. Sparks, Lloyd A. Stage and Alex 'Tunstall had earlier demanded Janes’ resignation following the attorney general’s report.
k k k
Janes labeled the attempts a “political smear” and refused to submit to the pressure from either group. Lucas called the ouster attempts “a witch hunt.”

BY ED BLUNDEN
The college newspaper editors of today have no corner on telling it like it is. This has been going on for decades. And I was there, in the center of things . . . so I thought, anyway.
Can it> be less than 10 years ago that I held various editorships! on that hard-hitttngl journal, the Wayne State University Daily Colleg-| ian? Yes it Was, nwj aging clippings say.
But these same clip-l pings tell me something I else — things haven’t] changed so much after] all. Take a look at these’ three burning issues BLUNDEN that tore at us in those years 1959-61;
• Students' attitude towards t n 6 i r campus.
• Swearing
• The ROTC program
★ * k ^
On subject No, 1, countless stories'and editorials Vfef written by the newspaper staff attacking the student atti-
tudes which we labeled simply “Apathy.”
“Down with apathy” was our cry. But in those days it seemed futile. The seyes were even apathetic toward each other, and any type of dance, get-together or social event was doomed to failure. It was hard to get anyone to even complain about the cafeteria food, or when they took the parking away, or the cutoff of street car service.
This attitude must be known as the “Good Old Days” to present administrators.
On issue No. 2, there was a delicious scandal on the campus about swear words that was taken up by all three Detroit newspapers (remember the Times?). But the whole thing sounds extremely strange today.
It started when a girl student’s parents demanded the resignation of a certain sociology teacher for swearing. In the subsequoit furor and investigation, it was revealed the man had indeed used swear wwds itt his classroom.; He had been informing Ms future aodal worken of some of the language they would be \ .
encountering in their actual casework.
But a further shocking disclosure was also made — the teacher had been seen after his evening graduate study class at a local tavern, drjpking beer with his students! A check at WSU revealed the man is still teaching there, having survived the crisis with only scars, apparently. -
The third issue, ROTC, caused a nearprotest on the campus — well at least loud lamentation. This, too, had a peculiar twist in the light of today.
Objections were raised by a vocal minority, when the administration and federal government, paring costs, attempted' to close down the existing Air Force officer training program. “You can’t do that to us,” the 200 or so future officers cried, and the Daily Collegian bravely rallied to their side.
Another check at WSU revealed the miniprotest failed, and ROTC quietly faded away.
So that’s one issue the edit or s of, the South End, successor to the (Collegian, haven’t got to ABitnrtoUr* about — thanks to the apathetic .geaeratiaii.

The three-point revision' of the City Charter sponsored by the Pontiac Council of Concerned Citizens (PCCC), for which a petition drive is under way to put it on the ballot, has much to recommend it. The revisions would:
• Change the present method of electing City Commissioners from election at large to election by Districts.
• Shorten the residency requirement for the office.
• Lower the qualifying age for candidates.
We consider these revisions desirable and supported the proposals of the PCCC.
