Bulk mail centers blasted
WASHINGTON—The chairman of the House Postal Facility said yesterday that the new centers for handling bulk mail were "a management blender of the first
Post-officials said they were unaware of the damage rate until Rep. Charles H. Wilson, D-Calf, and chairman of the board, a surprise visit to a city where 90 percent of damaged parcels were
The officials and they had been following statistics on how many parcels of wrappings had to be repaired. The managers reported that many items had been torn loose from their wrappings.
Postal offices disagreed, saying the $1-billion system will "show a return on investment of 10 per cent" a year over what the old system would have cost it
Wilson said he believes that the bulk mail centers "will cost the American public millions of dollars while lowering the quality of mail service."
Soviet harassment charged
MOSCOW—The United States accused Soviet officials of organizing a "deadly" attack on the base. A Russian missile bomb hit which sent embassy staffers spilling from their offices.
A State Department spokesman in Washington said, "Soviet authorities have apparently downed the path of irresponsibility" by organizing a harassment campaign against them.
The United States warned that such harassment could jeopardize American-Soviet relations, already strained following Soviet intervention in Angola.
The formal U.S. protest was the first claim that official Soviet groups were in contact with the attackers, although there were also telephone calls had threatened "the shooting of individuals" in the embassy, and a statement from the intelligence community.
The protest said all possible measures were being taken to protect the lives and property of Soviet citizens working in the United States.
Senate rejects Concorde ban
WASHINGTON—The U.S. Senate refused yesterday to prohibit the Concord supersonic jet from making scheduled flights into all U.S. airports.
By a 50-31 vote, the Senate rejected an amendment that would have added the Concorde ban to a bill authorizing $4.7 billion over 10 years to fund airport facilities.
The Senate ban on the Concordia, if it had passed, would have been permanent and would have applied to all U.S. airports. The House already had passed legislation prohibiting the Concordia, but the house bill only banned the plane for six months.
Junta arrests Peron aides
BUENOS AIRES, Argentina—In nearly deposed President Isabel Peron's report, the military said that all union officials were reported the greatest yesterday as the military installed forces.
The 45-year-old Mrs. Peron was custodied early Wednesday in a bloodless coup. The jung, led by Gen. Jorge. Vilda, named one of those seized as Mrs. Peron's private assets.
The junta also raided the metalworkers' union headquarters and stormed the Communist party office, arresting a number of persons, one of whom reportedly
Sirt censorship was imposed on the local media, congress was dissolved, and political and labor union activity was banned while the junta seized control of the city. The mayor, Larry Johnson, was arrested.
The junta has said a president will be named later, and some observers expect Videla to be installed in that position.
U.S. dissents in Israel vote
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (AP)—The United States vetoed a Security Council resolution last night that would have rebuked Israel for its entrenchment in Jerusalem and its administration of other occupied Arab territories.
William W. Scranton, U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, had charged in a speech Tuesday that Israeli settlements in the territories were obstructing peace in the Mideast. Scranton said he voted the way he did because the resolution would have hampered a new U.S. effort to restrain the peace process.
ALL THE 14 OTHER members of the Security Council voted for the resolution, which was proposed by a group of candidates. The committee carefully tailored to avoid the U.S. veto.
Scratton said, "We are engaged ... at this moment in an effort to regain momentum in the negotiating process that has brought some unusual progress, and I think it is fair to say there has been more progress in this effort than anything that has been undertaken since the 1967 war."
HE DID NOT elaborate. The veto was the 19th cast by the United States in the council vote on the war in Vietnam.
THE VETO came at the conclusion of four days of debate in which Israel came under sustained fire from Arab, nonaligned West European and Communist nations for its use in East Jerusalem and to entrench itself in territories seized during the 1967 war.

KU theater grant cut
Funds that had helped support the University of Kansas playwriting program will be withheld from the University next year.
For the past six years, KU has received the grant from the Shubert Foundation in New York. Last year the annual amount was cut from $10,000 to $5,000.
The grant helped produce "Pepsi Threnodies," which went to the regional competition of the American College Theatre Festival (ACTF) in 1975, and "Congersonas," which won the ACTF award this year.
Ron Williams, director of the William Inge Theatre, said yesterday the annual Shubert Foundation grant had been cut because of a lack of money.
Author Paul Stephen Lim, Philippines graduate student, and director David Cook, Lawrence graduate student, were given fellowships for "Conspirsonas,"
Jed Davis, director of the University Theatre, said the loss of the Shubert Foundation grant wouldn't cripple the playwriting program. He said the grant had been used as an addition to funds provided by both regular University theater channels.
The grant has been used in many ways. The money bought props for the University and fringe theatres and provided fellowships for graduate students. Other persons who helped produce the plays.
This year the money will also help cover the costs of sending “Compersonas” to Washington and be presented to the President of the Comedy Center for the Arts, as part of the ACTF. April 5-18.
Wills said that he had contacted the foundation to "make sure they knew about Compersa's winning" because "the company contributed helped develop the program."
Students review Revue
About 20 students attended the meeting,
about help KU-I improve next year's
work.
"Everyone becomes a critic after Rock Chalk, and that's good," said John Schwartz. Wichita senior and producer of this year's Revue.
discussed. It was suggested that there should be a technical adviser to coordinate crews and point out problems that might be overlooked by the production staff.
Technical difficulties with staging and orchestration were the main problems
"There needs to be better coordination and organization of the entire layout of the production," said Steve Mokofay, set director and stage crew chief of this year's Revue.
Representatives from some groups in this year's revue said more practice time with the orchestra and more time on stage to perform, plus lighting and cues would be beneficial.
2 Senate committee heads elected
Two of the Student Senate's newly appointed standing committees elected to chair the Senate.
The newly-elected chairmen are Steve McMurry, Norton senior. Student Rights, Privileges and Responsibilities; and Jeff Leawood, Leawood sophomore. Student Services.
Teddie Tasehoff, student body president,
visited the two committees and explained
The Student Rights committee appointed Reggie Robinson, Salina freshman, and Molly Wood, Wichita senior, to a task force which will look into student representation on University policy-making bodies. Students are guaranteed 20 per cent representation in all school and department policy-making groups.
Several members of the Academic Affairs committee will also be appointed to the task committee.
The Student Rights Committee also requested Jim Cox, Senate parliamentarian, to begin a preliminary investigation about a ruling on the use of Senate printing equipment, made at the Wednesday Senate meeting Kevin Flynn, Senate executive secretary.
Flynn had ruled that no Senate-funded group could use Senate equipment and funds for printing publications of a "political" or "editorial" nature.
A resolution sponsored by Bill Blessing, Kansas City, Kan., senior and passed by the Senate Wednesday, had requested the Rights committee to look into the matter.
The Services committee also will start the work on establishing a paper recycling
program in University residence halls in cooperation with the Association of University Residence Halls, set up a summer job-clearing house for students, review the findings of the Student Union Task Force and monitor the performance of Senate-funded groups in preparation for the spring budget hearings.
