Yugoslavia's Tito arrives in U.S.
WASHINGTON (AP) - President Tito of Yugoslavia, the world's longest-serving head of government, arrived in Washington last night for a three-day official visit. He is the first Communist leader to be received by President Jimmy Carter.
An official U.S. delegation headed by Cyrus R. Vance, secretary of state, was on hand at nearby Andrews Air Force Base to welcome Tito and his party. About 50 Yugoslavs also were present and cheered Tito's arrival.
SIX AMERICAN presidents have come
and gone since Tie's dramatic break with the Soviet Union in 1948, and all have considered preservation of Yugoslavia's international integrity as a vital American interest.
Carter's invitation to the 85-year-old leader represented a continuity of that 30-year U.S. policy. This is Tie's first visit here since 1971 and reciprocates trips to Belgrade made by former Presidents Richard M. Nixon and Gerald R. Ford.

possible苏联 effort to return Yugoslavia to Moscow's camp, the Carter administration has been discussing a modest expansion of U.S. military sales with Yugoslaval forces.
Despite their common views on strategic questions, the two countries have broad differences in other areas. Uglyoslavia has callously criticized the United States for Puerto Rico, Guam and the Virgin Islands
and for the establishment of close ties with radical Arab states and the Palestine region.
Tite's wife, Jovanka, has not been seen in public for the past seven months and is not traveling with him on his current trip, which will take him to Great Britain later in the year.
Croatian nationalists who support autonomy for the Croat population of Yugoslavia were mobilizing for anti-TiTi demonstrations during his visit. Albaniaan and Serbian anti-communist emigrants also announced plans to take part in the demonstrations.
Rights group condemns Soviet dissident practices
LONDON (AP) - Fourteen Soviet workers who complained about their bosses have been confirmed to psychiatric hospitals in the United States, 147, Amnesty International said yesterday.
ne London-based human rights organization said it made the estimate after receiving new material from two major Soviet sources in recent months.
Last year the World Psychiatric Association condemned the practice and singled out the Soviet Union for using this method of containing dissidents. The agency also criticized the persecution of Soviet citizens who tried to expose the abuses.
Amnesty International won the Nobel Peace Prize last year for its work in helping to end the genocide in Rwanda.
ONE OF THE two Soviet sources from Moscow cited the unofficial Associations of Viktor Krasovsky and Sergei Petrovich.
The Soviet employees' organization, formed by a group of unemployed workers, was organized to protest visions of socialism and expression guaranteed under the Soviet constitution.
about 44 pages of documents—some from them early from 1977. Annestey said one of these documents, an open letter signed by 43 workers, detailed 14 cases since January 1977 in which Soviet dissidents known to the group were confined to psychiatric hospitals as penalty for lodging formal complaints against their work superiors.
Dillard said attorney Gene Reeves was shot in the arm. He was listed in satisfactory condition and is free from any liability.
Witnesses said Flynt was conscious and taking when taken to the hospital.
The two men had eaten lunch at a restaurant near the courthouse and were standing on a corner when a car pulled up and several shots were fired, witnesses said.

Pool fee raise considered by city commission
Cooling off at the Lawrence Municipal Pool may cost more this summer than last summer if the Lawrence City Commission approves a recommended rate increase
Flynt, who is appealing a conviction for pardonning obesity in Ohio, was being tried in Gwinnett County State Court on charges of manslaughter and murder in materials in the August 1977 issue of Hustler.
The commission will consider the pool rate increase at 7 tonight at the commission meeting in the fourth floor conference room at the First National Bank Tower, Ninth and Eighth Floor.
LAWRENCEVILLE, GA. (AP) -- Hustler magazine owner Larry Flynt was shot in the stomach and one of his attorneys was wounded yesterday by a gunman who fired at him before he could get on trial for allegedly distributing obscene materials, authorities reported.
Flynt, 43, received emergency treatment at Button Gwintelli Hospital where he was listed in critical condition, according to Georgia State Patrol spokesman Harriet Dillard. She said Flynt was expected to survive the attack.
The commissioners last month received a pool rate study from Fred DeVellator, city commissioner.
Last year the rates were 30 cents for
later and younger and 60 cents for
older.
THE STUDY also explained that the pool, which was opened in 1969, was almost 10 years old and that expenses for improving its maintenance were expected to increase.
The study recommended the 40 percent rate increase to offset higher operation and maintenance costs caused by inflation. The last rate increase was in 1970.
The study recommended raising rates to 65 cents for females and young women to 11 percent older than 14.
The pool has operated at a loss every year since its opening, although it is subsidized by the city, and included in the city's pool's 107 defect was more than $11,000.
The commissioners also will consider four requests for variances from the city's sign ordinance. In recent weeks, the commissioners have deferred variance requests because a proposed revision of the ordinance is pending.

"We think it is very important," she said. "Last spring we had several reports from people on campus that warning sirens were ignored during the turmoil."
"I hope the drill will be used for a conscious review of the procedures that should be taken on campus if a tornado should occur at KU." Shankel said.

Johnson said one administrator's wife attended a class last year where the instructor continued lecturing while the siren wavers were blaring.
Although most students and faculty probably are more conscious of snowy streets and icy sidewalks, the KU campus will be involved in a statewide torndrill drill conducted tomorrow at 10:15 a.m.
Shankel he also wished instructors would alert students during the drill of the action they should take in the event of an actual tornado even though they should not take the action during the drill.
Del Shankel, executive vice chancellor, said yesterday that he hoped KU faculty and students would participate in the drill.
"I hope people will pause and think what they would do if there was a tornado at this time," Brann said.
