WASHINGTON—The controversial Concord superscript i is making money on flights to the United States, spokesman for two airlines said yesterday.

Both airlines said they wouldn't be prepared to talk about profits until the end of the 16-month test.
Pat Nixon released soon
LONG BEACH, Calif. - Pat Nixon should be out of the hospital within 10 days and completely recover from the partial paralysis brought on by a stroke, her doctor
The family's physician, Dr. John Lungen, said a specialist who examined the former First Lady believed the partial paralysis that has affected her leg, arm and hand was caused by an attack on her brain.
Although Mrs. Nixon remained in serious condition, Langren said slurring of her speech had lessened and her blood pressure was under control.
Dr. Lungren told a daily news briefing that the change was possible because Mrs. Nixon no longer needed constant monitoring of her heart.
Mrs. Solzhenitsun ticketed
HAYS—Alexander Solenzhtysen, exiled Soviet author, thought he was headed for a U.S. jail last month when his wife was stopped for speeding in central Kansas. Highway patrolman Keith Denchfield said he stopped a van driven by Solenzhtysen's wife on Interstate 70 in Trego County. Denchfield said Solenzhtysen emerged from the van and came to aid his wife as she was struggling with the language, but the Nobel prize winner also became confused.
Dumfries wrote a ticket with a note on the back of it to Mrs. Solzhenysnay's brother in Vermont explaining the violation. The ticket was paid by money order a day earlier.

Janitor shoots 6 in swree

after that. It means a lot to us that we maintain our credibility.
Hall said city Manager Butford Watson's credibility among police officers and firefighters is growing.
Hall said he thought city officials had tried to split the two departments by giving a good package to the policemen and a poor package to the firemen.
"The same applies to our commitment to the firemen. We knew what they were after and the steps they would take to get it, and we said we would stay together no matter how bad it turned out. We can't, and we have no intention to, back out on them now." Hall said.
BECAUSE OF Watson's apparent lack of
action on promises he has made to police and fire department representatives in the past, Hall said, the members of the LPOA would no longer accept terms in the nature of a gentleman's agreement. Only those on paper would suffice, Hall said.
The officers and firefighters aren't alone in their fight for benefits.
Hall explained that any action by the LPOA, such as yesterday's handbill distribution and law enforcement speed-up, was the decision of its members and no one else.
"The officers have the full support of their wives and families," Hall said. "That's what I am asking for."
Negotiations between Watson and
tremen are scheduled to resume at 10
am.

McMurray said he would meet today with City Manager Buford Watson to discuss what services would be required of a consultant who would conduct the study.
He said he hoped bids could be accepted from the consultant's position by the end of the week.

said the city wouldn't be ready to accept
bids for a consultant "until the firemen go

A study of the mass transit needs of Lawrence will begin soon, Steve McMurray, chairman of the Student Senate Transportation Committee, said recently.
IN APRL, the United States Department of Transportation gave $16,000 to KU and Lawrence to pay for 80 per cent of a study of the impact in the city and ways of fulfilling them.
The University and the city commission agreed to make $3,500 in matching funds available for the study. The Lawrence School Board contributed the remaining $3,500.
He said he would provide information and
KU, Lawrence study mass transit system
The Continental Walk for Disarmament and Social Justice participants are expected to arrive in Lawrence this evening for a three day stay. Two walkers, Stuart Ward and Champney, arrived yesterday to make lodging arrangements with local families.
He said he hoped the study would help determine how successful the student bus service was and whether it needed to expand to other parts of the city.
Their walk started January 31 in San Francisco. Bankers plan to arrive in Hawaii.
Mc Murry said the transportation study would examine all forms of mass transportation in the city, including buses, bicycle paths, sidewalks and taxis and would consider such factors as patronage and the adequacy of facilities.
Population patterns, land use and the exiting transit system are areas the MTA uses to serve its residents.
"The city and the University need to work together to see whether a much larger scale of transportation service is needed," he said.
Course designed to aid elderly
HE SAID that a consultant might find that Lawrence's mass transit system was adequate, but that an evaluation of the communities were adequately served.
He is perhaps best known for his *mus* in Hanoi in 1968 as a member of the American Friends Service Committee of the Quaker Movement, which has maintained the release of three American POWs.

A Telenet course exploring the problems of the aged in Kansas will be offered this fall through the School of Social Welfare and the Division of Continuing Education, according to Theodore Ernst, professor of social Welfare and designer of the course.
Teleten is an instructional system set up by the Regents of the University of Kansas, Erust said, that allows teachers to broadcast lectures as well as exchange conversation directly with students at various locations throughout the state.
He said he thought other countries would leave us alone and then follow total nuclear
The course can't be taken for college credit but will provide "a basic understanding of the policies that affect the aged and financially available to the aged," Ermus said last week.
KU faculty and other persons with experience and expertise with problems of the nursing profession.
THE COURSE consists of four units lasting 28 weeks from Sept. 10 through April 15. Each unit is made up of seven sessions offered 4 p.m.-7 p.m. on Fridays at the 27th and 36th periods. The course offers one four-hour Saturday morning workshop at Lawrence, Wichita, Hays and Pittsburg.
The course will be directed towards those persons involved with the aged in Kansas, such as social workers, nurses, nursing home operators, clergy, librarians and high school principals, as well as the aged themselves, he said.
the United States would take the first step towards disarmment," he said.
He said that more than 12 per cent of the population in Kansas was over 65 and that in some rural counties in Kansas more than 25 per cent of the population was over 65
because of the movement to urban centers by rural young people
"BY THE YEAR 2000, the aged population combined with those children and youth who are also termed non-working people, will exceed the working population," he said.
"The course deals with the psychological and sociological forces that affect the aged—how a person adapts to aging—as well as training people to utilize the resources available to the aged," Ernst said.
Besides the Tenet course, Ernst said, KU is interested in setting up a Kansas area agency on aging that would serve Wyan-
ton residents by providing them with setting up information and referral systems.
Harris, describing Hearst as a convert to the SLA, said the newspaper he acted “totally spontaneously” when she fired a colleague who had criticized the Harrises’ detraway from a shooflining.
DWINDLING BUYING power and inadequate health care and housing have become the most critical problems for the aged in New York City. They will be devoted to these issues. Ermadt said.
Ernst said one reason she was more concerned for the ageed that there were simply more persons over 65 than ever before. Twenty years ago when I first met her, I would never remember their grandparents; now some students know their great-grandparents."
He said that until the passage of the Older American Act in 1965, the federal government paid little attention to the problems of the aged. The act authorized block grants to state and local government to fund programs for the aged.
Ernst said the main purpose of service for the aged was to enable them to live independently, with supportive services provided by the community.
THE PALE, slender Harris, wearing blue jeans and an open-necked blue print blouse, was calm as she stood at a lectern where he heavily guarded bullet-proof courtroom.
The heirus has testified she fired a fire as "reflex action" to the Harris' orders.
Soltsky, who died on her 28th birthday May 17, 1974, was slain along with five other SLA "soldiers" in a battle with Los Angeles police.
"I would like to see a government out of a peace walk with the people firmly on the ground talking with one another," Meacham said.
But her composure broke briefly when the prosecutor interposed loud objections and Superior Court Judge Mark Brandler upheld him.
Tertimony was scheduled to begin today.
Hethlathry was s Schwenched to begin today. HELSINKY AND her husband, William, are on trial for robbery, robbery and assault. Hearst, a codefender, is scheduled to be tried separately.
Champney has been with the walk since its beginning in San Francisco.
Emily Harris disputes Hearst trial testimony
Harris, in the role of her own lawyer,
delivered an opening statement to jurors
that challenged for the first time Heart's
version of events involving the trio.
But for that twist of fate, Harris said, Hearest would have perished in a Symbionese Liberation Army hideout—and Lucia "Mizmoon" Sölskyl would have died.
"This is a great way to see the country," he said. "I've worn out three pairs of tennis shoes."
LOS ANGELES (AP) -Emily Harris told her juries yesterday that Patricia Hearst escaped death in a fire shotout only by "a flash of light," and she would go along for the ride, on a shopping trip.
He predicted that other solutions to the problem of utilizing the increased age population might include an increased flexibility in retirement ages and employment of the aged to care for children of working parents.

"That's argumentative," said Deputy
Champney heard about the walk while attending Wilmington College, Wilmington, Ohio. He said he hoped his walking would help the disarmment issue.
Hearst swore at her San Francisco bank robbery trial that she never joined ranks with the organization.
FEDERAL PROGRAMS such as the Foster Grandparent program, RSVP (Retired Senior Volunteer Program) and programs that make use of the expertise of retread business executives would continue and expand, Ernst said.

"I've never done this before," Harris said softly. A brief recess was called, then Harris returned red-eyed. A legal aide confirmed she had been crying. But the 29-year-old defendant resumed her talk in a calm voice.
