Franco has relapse
MADRID—Doctors issued a medical bulletin last night saying that 82-year-old Gen. Francisco suffered a relapse following a heart attack two days ago. The statement opened the way for a constitutional transfer of power to the governor, who has been under orders to abort the abortion. The cabinet was expected to start the transfer in motion when it met today.
"The chief state of头发 has suffered a relapse and incipient heart failure has appeared," said the brief bulletin from Franco's 11 attending physicians.
A spokesman at the leader's palace said France was recovering. He said reports that the head of state was in a coma were lies, but didn't directly repudiate the claims.
Italian poet wins Nobel
STOCKHOLM-Eugenio Montale, Italy's grand old poet of nature, love and art, was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature yesterday by a sharply divided audience.
The 79-year old Montale, a Nobel candidate and said to be the choice of older members of the academy, won over 80-year-old U.S. novelist Belle Bellow, the *New York Times* editor.
Reached at his apartment in the heart of old Milan, Montale's eyes lit up after learning of the award, which 'some believe was long overdue.
"I am struck . . . I am happy," he said. "This makes my life, which always was unhappy, less unhappy."
CBS aives up rooms
NEW YORK—A dispute over hotel space for the Republican National Convention in Kansas City next summer appeared to be settled yesterday.
A spokesman for the Columbia Broadcasting System said the network had decided to give up the 700 hotel rooms it had reserved in the Kansas City area for
"It's been resolved," a CBS spokesman said of the dispute. "We've turned back the rooms to the Republicans for the four days of the convention. We will maintain."
Victim's life defended
MORRISTOWN, N.J. — a neurologist who specializes in the treatment of coma victims said yesterday that Karen Anne Quinlan's physical condition was too grotesque to describe, but said that no physician has the right to take steps that could end her life.
The testimony was by Dr. Sidney Diamond, one of three neurologists presented at women opposing treatment. Quinna's adoptive parents that doctors be ordered to give them a prescription were "suspect."
Rolfs proposes reduction in Student Senate seats
Ed Rolfs, student body president, has sent a letter to the Elections Committee recommending that the number of student senators elected each year be cut in half
According to Mike Pendergar, Student Senate public relations coordinator, Rolfs proposed the cut, hoping to make the Senate more efficient and senators more informed.
The proposal also recommended that freshmen and sophomores be elected senators, so the students would be conducted each year. The eleventh would be in November, with elected senators taking office in January. Under the new plan, all unselected senators begin work immediately.
Pendergast said yesterday the delay would allow new senators time to become accustomed to the procedures of the Senate meetings.
"Right now, you walk into the Senate totally new, unless you've gone to previous meetings," she said.
According to Rolfs' proposal, the number of Senate seats would be reduced to 50. The proposal' stated that senators will still be elected by their schools.
Britt Buckley, Elections Committee chairman, said that he liked the idea of reducing the number of senators but that it would have to cope with the majority of senators.
The trial recessed until Monday, when more medical testimony will be presented.
Buckley said one of the reasons apathy existed in the Senate was because many senators were elected with a low total of 37 members and a lack of interest by people within the schools.
Buckley said the Elections Committee was examining an alternate plan geared to elect the governor.
"We're looking into the districting of the campus right now, but its still in the plan."
Buckley said the committee would obtain a map from the office of the registrar in charge.
According to Buckley, most students would be better represented by people who live near them than by people elected from their schools.
Pendergast said the proposal wouldn't affect student representation on Senate committees because committee membership was open to all students.
In the proposal, Rolfs stressed the retainment of the procedure allowing the president and vice-presidential candidates to run as a team.
"To me, the Senate does not have enough direction as it is, and the executive branch of the student government should assume role of providing that direction," Rolfs said.
“Consider the situation where a president and vice-president agreed on very little in terms of policy, but could possibility that at the same time the vice-president received more votes than the president. Under those circumstances,” he added, “would really be the student body president.”
The proposal will be discussed by the Elections Committee Oct. 28, according to BURKE.

House committee extends tax reduction
WASHINGTON (AP) — The House Ways and Means Committee yesterday approved a one-year $12.7 billion 1976 extension of the personal 1975 income tax reductions.
President Ford has said repeatedly he would veto any tax reducing bill that didn't benefit him.
The extension was approved, 21-to-16, after the committee killed ideas for making the extension contingent on a federal spending limit for the next fiscal year.
The proposal, by Rep. Al Ullman, D-Ore., was accepted as part of a wide-ranging tax bill which the committee is preparing for presentation to the full House next month.
The Ullman proposal would extend and make permanent the 1975 Tax Reduction Act's temporary boost in minimum and maximum standard deductions.
From 496 original entries, 74 pieces by 51 artists were selected for the exhibition, Eileen Murphy, exhibition coordinator and professor of design, said yesterday.
taxpayer claimed the current $750 personal exemption.
Furthermore, Ullman's proposal would, only for 1976, replace the 1975 Tax Reaction Act, which permitted taxpayers to credit. This credit had been allowed for every taxpayer or dependent for whom a
For most tax payers, there would be a maximum tax credit of $240 per return. There also would be a minimum tax credit of $30 spice for the taxpayer and dependents only. Thus, in some cases, the $30 minimum would override the general $240 maximum.
"The judges selected pieces that stood on their own as a whole and as a personal experience."
For instance, rather than the $240 general maximum, $270 would be provided to a taxpayer family composed of husband, wife and seven children.
Artists who are or have been residents of Kansas or the greater Kansas City area are invited to enter the show. Many of the entrants current or former KU students, Murphy said.
James Moeseer, dean of the School of Fine Arts, will present seven cash awards for outstanding works at the exhibition, which opens at 8 p.m. Friday.
Award winners are: Angela Crawford, Omaha senior; Missy Hamilton, Manhattan; Elizabeth Lady, Lawrence; Susan Galloway, Clarksville, IL; Hal Davis, Memphis; and a former KU student, Lawrence Kirkland, Corvallis, Neb., who will receive two awards for two separate pieces.
FTC to stick to oil antitrust suit
The suit accuses the companies of raising consumer prices and company profits.
WASHINGTON (AP)—The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) rejected a judge's advice yesterday and decided to go ahead with the proposed agreement against the eight major U.S. oil companies.
An administrative law judge of the FTC had recommended that the commission consider dropping it and, instead, launch a broad-scale investigation of the industry.
Named in the FTC antitrust suit are Exxon, Gulf, Shell, Tecmo, Atlantic Richfield, Standard Oil of California and Standard Oil of Indiana.
The suit says the companies monopolized the flow of oil from well to gas pump, giving
them power to shut off supplies to independent stations.
At a hearing of the House Energy Research subcommittee, Colorado Gov. Richard D. Lamm, representing the National Governors' Conference, took issue with a $6 billion loan guarantee program passed by the Senate.
The program will provide loan guarantees to companies interested in developing novel sources of energy. Lamm asked that it include a provision that no guarantees be issued without the consent of the state involved.
Govs, Thomas P. Salmon of Vernont, Ed Herscher of Wyoming and Arthur Link of North Dakota supported Lamm's arguments.
