ACLU Asks Court to Acquit Watergate Trial Defendants
WASHINGTON—The American Civil Liberties Union moved Wednesday to have the convictions of the Wategate trial defendants thrown out because they "resumed from . . . frauds upon the court." The ACLU asked permission of U.S. District Court to file a brief in support of Watergate conspirator James W. McCord Jr.'s motion for directed acquittal or a new trial.
Kellev Asks for FBI Freedom
"Those convictions should be set aside and the defendants retried under a properly drawn indictment which charges all of those responsible for the Watergate conspiracy regardless of their station in life," the legal document said.
WASHINGTON—The Senate Judiciary Committee, considering Clarence M. Kelley's nomination for FBI chief, went into recess until Monday, when several witnesses are expected to testify. The committee also said it would seek the FBI to have a degree of independence that would prevent it from becoming a White House police force under the influence of "the wrong director," the wrong attorney general or wrong President." The committee said it would put a stop to law enforcement officers posing as newsmen and pat a stop to FBI agents acting in this manner as undercover agents.
Running Mate Selection Attacked
WASHINGTON—Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey has called on a new Democratic party commission to revise the vice presidential selection process to insure selection of top-grade candidates. "We ought to be offering the people best that this party can offer," the Minnesota governor said in an executive committee to collect proposals on the vice presidential selection process and to decide whether to hold any public hearings.
Peace Commission Fails Again
SAIGON-Vietnam two-part joint military peace-keeping commission, meeting for the third time in six days, failed again to put into effect any of the major 14 points in the Paris communique de la deuxième anniversaire du Vietnam that though the number of violations by the Communists had decreased, the intensity of clashes had increased. The Viet Cong said Saigon's forces had carried out many battalion-sized land-grabbing operations with support from bombers, tanks and artillery. In Camboys, forces also entered sides of Highways 4 and 5, both of which are vital transport routes.
Pope Ready to Leave Vatican
VATICAN CITY—Pope Paul VI is reported ready to abandon the Vatican and St. Peter's Basilica, symbols of his claim to be supreme ruler of Christianity, if it would advance the cause of Christianity. The Pope was quoted as saying he would be prepared to move to the Pope Palace, his see as bishop of Rome, but would never agree to abdicate to Pope. In his words, this would be "against the will of Christ."
$1 Million Fine Asked of IBM
WASHINGTON—The Justice Department has asked a federal judge to hold IBM Corp. in contempt of court for failure to produce some 12,000 documents that the government wants as potential evidence in its long-standing anti-trust action against IBM. Asst. Atty. Gen. Thomas E. Kauper has proposed massive fines against the multi-court entity and asked the court to find IBM in either civil or criminal contempt. He also ordered the central part of IBM's earnings for each day it continues to hold out, which he estimated at $177,000 per day, or a criminal fine of $1 million.
Mexican Jetliner Missing
PUERTO VALLARA, Mexico—A Mexican jetliner with 27 passengers was reported missing today on a flight from Houston, Tex., and witnesses said it apparently exploded as it approached this resort city. Several witnesses reported seeing a flash of fire in the sky over the airport as the aeromexico DC9 approached the airport here. The air traffic control last contacted the DC9 at 10:23 p.m. Wednesday Lawrence time. The plane was then at 14,000 feet over the Pacific about four miles offshore, preparing for its final approach.
EUGENE, Ore.,—Bowling Green's Dave Wotte has run the third fastest mile of all the time in the Hayward Restoration Meet, charging past Oregon's Steve Prefontaine to win in 3:53.3 as six millers broke the estimate mark. Wotte, now with the U.S. Air Force, passed Prefontaine second in 3:54.6, just ahead of John Hartnett of Villanova, who was clocked in 3:54.6. Jim Ryun holds the world record of 5:51.1 for the mile.
Dave Wottle Runs 3:53.3 Mile
Cool Night to Follow Warm Day
It's going to be another pleasant day here in Lawrence, with just the right amount of sun to keep bright walls and comfortable.
The temperature should stay below the mid 80s during the day and drop during the night to the mid 50s. Good weather is expected to continue on through Thursday.
Brezhnev, Nixon Puff Peace Pipe Nuclear Ban Likely Today
CAMP DAVID, Md. (AP)--President Nixon and Soviet Communist leader Leonid I. Brezhnev have reached agreement on a new declaration designed to spur a permanent ban on nuclear weapons, offensive sources disclosed late Wednesday.
The signing is tentatively set for Thursday. At the same time, Nixon and Brexiteer may announce an accord for joint energy in peaceful uses of atomic energy.
The finishing touches on the guidelines for the now-recessed SALT II talks in Geneva were reached by Nixon and Breznev in conferences held in a mountain retreat here.
The agreement could rival in importance the accord reached in Moscow last spring when Nixon and Brenzweig held their first nuclear summit. The agreement would limit on some nuclear defensive weapons
and a temporary limited ban on some offensive weapons.
It was understood the new guidelines reached here were mostly general in nature. But they are intended to accelerate the suspended technical talks covering such complex systems as multi-targeted missile warheads.
The document would not be a treaty, but is essential to essential to the stalled Grassland Conference.
A companion pact would pool U.S. and Soviet research in the field of peaceful uses of nuclear energy, including fast-breeder reactors and controlled explosions.
Gunbattles Disrupt Peron's Homecoming
Nixon and Breznev met late into the evening. Wednesday and planned to

BUENOS AIRES (AP)—Gunmen opened fire in a threed of two million that waited Wednesday to welcome Juan Domingo Peron back to Argentina. Scores fell dead or wounded, and Peron landed at another airport.

Peron, en route from exile in Madrid, put down at a military air base several miles away. He canceled his public appearance, and he left the airport Wednesday night, the government said.
Two earlier gunbattles that left three persons wounded appeared to involve rival Peronist groups. Peronists in the crowd blamed a Marxist guerrilla group for the prolonged gunfire that spoiled Peron's peaceful return from 18 years in exile.
The shots were fired into the crowd from a clump of trees 300 yards from the speaker's stand. Peronist security guards returned the fire and charged toward the trees.
The new Peronist president, Hector J. Campora, said after arriving with the former Argentine leader that the fighting was caused by "elements who are against our nation."
Sporadic shooting near the international airport continued after dusk as hundreds of thousands of Peronists started back toward the capital.
Witnesses said some of the gunmen fled in cars, but others were captured. Minutes later, other shots rang out and the fighting spread.
Police withdrew quickly from the area after the shooting broke out.
The Trotskyite People's Revolutionary Army, a Marxist guerrilla group, has pledged to disrupt the new Peronist government.
Peron was topped by a military coup in 1965 after 9 years of rule with dictatorial powers, which the military and his followers were prohibited by the military from putting up a presidential candidate until this year. This return to power is his seconde in the last six months.

Minorities Explored Today
The University of Kansas is not a community unto itself but at one with the people it serves. Kansas staff writers provide a look at some ongoing services
to and for minority groups, within and without the Lawrence campus, on pages 2,3 and 4 of today's Kansan.
Blacks Promised Equality
By GERALD EWING
Positive commitments to do everything possible to reduce the inequities associated with minority groups at the University of Kansas were given by Chancellor Designate Archie Dykes and Chancellor Raymond Nichols in meetings Wednesday.
Dykes, contacted by telephone at his office at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville, said that in the case of any minority group, the University had an obligation to take those steps which seemed necessary to meet the needs of all students.
"The important thing is that people are committed to responding to the needs of all people, black and white, rich and poor, or whatever." Dykes said, "The University has to serve to nerve all of the people in my concern what he be that we do that in every way possible."
DYKES SAID THAT at this time, he didn't have any specific plans he might implement to help the minority groups at KU.
“What one would do would vary from circumstance to circumstance and from location to location. What would be suitable here in Tennessee might not be suitable in Kansas. You have to adapt the steps you would take to a given situation,” he said.
Like most major universities, the University of Tennessee has had instances of racial problems and complaints by black students that discrimination does exist.
DYKES SAID MUCH of the concern centered on the number of black faculty within the university and the number of black students admitted to the university.
See related pictures and stories on pages 2,3 and 4.
He said the administration at Tennessee responded to these problems in two or three ways.
One way was a series of programs about the campus that were designed to bring more black students to the university, to better meet areas where they didn't normally enroll.
Connally Hopes To Leave Job, But Not Upset
Dykes cited one program in which the College of Engineering recruited blacks and provided financial aid for them for the first two years of their college education. The last two years would be taken by a co-ap program where the student would work one quarter for either the Tennessee Valley Authority, Alcoa Corporation or General

WASHINGTON - John B. Connally said Wednesday he was not unhappy or upset about his White House job, but wanted to quit as soon as possible.
He seemed to deny published reports that he was restless and displeased about his White House role, and felt cut off from ready access to President Nixon. But Connally puzzled newsman at the White House by declaring:
"You have some leakers who are fairly accurate in what they have been leaking to."
THE ONE-TIME Texas governor, who shifted from the Democratic to Republican party eight days before becoming a part-time, unpaid presidential consultant on May 10, was asked how long he planned to remain on the job.
“As short a time as possible,”
he responded to the question he had to return to
him because of illness.
Asked if he had conveyed his wishes to Nixon, Connally told the news conference he was "trying to send word to him through you all."
