Peace Rules Accord Near
PARIS (AP)—Foreign ministers, assembled here for a Vietnam peace conference, agreed agreement Sunday on the rules to round out the Washington-action peace deal.
On the eve of the conference that begins today, two developments were reported in
A ‘hands-off-Vietnam’ pledge by the big powers and the international community in general. This is likely to take the form of a conference declaration.
—a formula that would put the chairmanship of the conference into the orbit of the four-nation Commission of Control and Supervision that is to police the peace
settlement. Members are Canada, Poland,
Indonesia and Hungary.
The conference, provided for in the cease-fire pact signed Jan. 28, has brought together foreign ministers of six Communist regimes, six non-Communist regimes and Secretary-General Kurt Waldheim of the United Nations.
Participants in the conference are the Soviet Union, China, Poland, Hungary, North Vietnam, the Viet Cong's Provisional Revolutionary Government, the United States, Britain, France, Canada, Indonesia and South Vietnam.
Waldheim is taking part as a symbol of the interest of the international community.
Minorities Included In Shawnee Faculties
By CHUCK POTTER
Kansan Staff Writer
OVERLAND PARK-Flifteen minority group student teachers will begin classroom work March 12 in the Shawnee Mission school district as part of what could be a model for a national program to promote minority group teacher education.
Dave Westbrook, director of information services for the district, said recently that the program promised to be a great success and that it would generate generated students and the community.
The 15 student teachers arrived in Shawnee Mission Jan. 29 and began work on curriculum.
The program, Suburban Intercultural Teacher Education (SITE), was established after the Shawnee Mission Board of Education passed a resolution in July which recognized education to strengthen its efforts to recruit qualified teachers from minority groups.
Rasalind Autenirie, program director, outlined four areas of training that the
Student teachers will study the sociological characteristics of Johnson County, instructional methods for suburban classrooms, methods of gaining credibility as an authority figure and will student teach. she said.
A rush of consultations among the delegates improved prospects for a compromise over the chairmanship and other procedural arrangements.
The student teachers are out-of-state college seniors from a wide variety of cultural, racial, ethnic and geographic backgrounds. Anutrienth said.
"We're trying to fill a cultural vacuum in Shawnee Mission," she said. "Students
Formal proceedings will begin at 10 a.m. today in the former Hotel Majestic, now a conference center in downtown Paris near Montparnasse. The difference is expected to last less than a week.

Tuna Recall
An FDA spokesman cautioned shopper to return any Star Kist tuna cans bearing the letter G on the top line of the can code and DA17, as the last digit on the bottom line.
WASHINGTON - A flexible standard for wage increases in new labor contracts will replace the government's 5.5-per-cent guideline left over from Phase 2 controls, sources say. The move to a flexible standard, described as "very carefully workforced," will be by the White House today. It is seen as a Nixon administration concession to labor since several major labor contracts will be negotiated this year.
Moslem Move
CHICAGO—Several cuts of Star Kist tuna from a shipment which the Food and Drug Administration believes may be contaminated, two retail grocery stores in Bloomington, Ind., an FDA spokesman said Sunday. These were the first to have been found in the retail market. About 400 cases of the tuna were found at a warehouse to warehouse in eight states.
VW Prices
NATORE, Bangladesh—Prime Minister Najib Murah Rahman proposed Sunday that Bangladesh and Pakistan immediately halt the war against civilians. He indicated that if Pakistan did not agree, he might dump 300,000 non-Bengali Muslims in the lap of the world convoy Bangladesh had no room for the members of the Urdu-speaking Bilahian ministry, he said.
ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS, N.J.-Prices for Volkswagen sold in the United States will go up an average of 7.2 per cent as a result of the devaluation of the dollar, Volkswagen of America announced Sunday. The increase will apply to all vehicles unloaded at U.S. ports Sunday. Cars currently in stock will continue to have the old suggested list price of $199,000, but the old price of $2,699 will go up $140 to a new national suggested list price of $2,199. All models in the company's Forshe and Audi lines are also affected by the increase.
Art Thefts
Several countries, including the United States and Britain, had favored Waldheim as the only candidate to be head of the NATO but North Vietnam, the Viet Cong's Provisional Revolutionary Government and China objected. All appear to be against any U.N. role in postwar Europe.

Autoren said that SITE would not only provide a broader cultural base for Shawnee Mission students, but would also facilitate the natural transition of the teachers themselves.
"The students participating in SITE come from varied backgrounds," Autenlirle said, "but, just as important, they come from urban areas all over the country. The change from college campus to classroom will be complicated by their move from a rural setting culturally different from their own. SITE will aid in that transition."
Less than 2 per cent of the 44,836 students in the Shawnee Mission district come from minority backgrounds and only 17 of the 2,200 teachers are black, Westbrook said. There are 170 black students in elementary and secondary grades in the district.
Auterriet said the teachers would begin a-week block of concentrate teaching Mary.
"SITE graduates will be given priority consideration for full time teaching positions," she said, "but many are expected to find employment elsewhere because the district has fewer openings that it has student teachers."
She said that although only 15 teachers expected more to be added after this spring,
Other school district officials spoke enthusiastically about the program. Arzell L. Ball, superintendent of schools, called the department of SITE a landmark in education.
"Considering the turmoil in education today," Ball said, "STEEN don't happen any too soon. One program may not solve even a few of the racial and cultural tensions and misunderstandings, but it is definitely a step in the right direction."
Another possibility for chairman that came up for discussion behind the scenes was to select as chairman the foreign minister of France, representing the host country. But this idea was short-lived. South Vietnam obeyed venerably.
It was then that Canada, playing a riddle role in the conference put up the idea of rotating or sharing the chairmanship between the four members of the control

Twenty-five University of Kansas students have enrolled in a life drawing course sponsored by SUA and the Free University, according to Mark Pierce, Seward, Kan., senior and SUA Fine Arts chairman.
The House last week voted to take care of the agencies for the remaining four months of the fiscal year with a stopgap measure which was called a continuing resolution.
This semester a $2 fee is required because SUA had budgeted money for only one semester's funding. The money is used to pay the models who pose for the class, he
A joint committee of Congress is studying the problem of budget control. Under a procedure that is being considered Congress would act in three steps to:
This permits the agencies to spend on the basis of previous actions taken by Congress. The agencies now are operating under such a resolution but it expires Wednesday.
Feedback to Have Rival; Sachem to Publish Guide
Because of space and financial limitations the School of Fine Arts is usually unable to accept students for their drawing courses who are not enrolled in Fine Arts,
The Senate will take up the new resolution Monday.
Pierce said that he was originally apprehensive about the class. He was afraid that some people might enroll in the course only because they would be able to draw modelets. He said he was not sure that students would approach the class seriously.
This is the second semester that the life drawing course has been offered in the Free University. Last semester the course was offered to the students who were offered to the students for no charges.
Perse said people could benefit from a life drawing course, particularly those who have a desire or need for drawing and could benefit from courses through the KU School of Fine Arts.
WASHINGTON (AP)—President must act this week to provide money for agencies covered by two appropriations bills stymied between President Nixon and Congress.
The Curriculum and Instruction Survey, which produces Feedback, will have a rival this year. A new system of class evaluation is being used, as used at Harvard University for 37 years.
SUA,Free U Again Offer Life Drawing
However, the course has been a success, he said. The students approach the class
A 3.6 billion foreign aid bill has been blocked because Congress has not been able to agree with the administration on terms of the basic legislation authorizing this money.
Sachem, the senior men's honor society is working on its own evaluation booklet, according to Ben Mann, Independence, Mo., senior and president of the society.
The situation illustrates one of the many difficulties facing Congress in its struggle to set up machinery to bring the federal budget under control.
Nixon-Congress Feud Creates Funding Group
"We are going to try to do what Feedback does but not in a numerical manner." Mann said. "We're going to use a written feedback system," he will provide more complete evaluations."

Mann said the idea for the survey, which will be called "An Unofficial Guide to KU," is that students would
"Walt Stromquist, who graduated from KU and is now at Harvard, came to us with the idea because he liked the booklet being used at Harvard," Mann said.
Drawing the human anatomy is one of the most difficult tasks in art, Pierce said.
"I think everyone works pretty hard,
They are all involved in their own personal

3. Exact a final clean bill making cuts or other changes necessary to assure that the final spending total stays within the ceiling.
The crucial step in this process would be the third. Obviously it would not work if the White House and the Capitol got into a battle as they did in the current year and some of the money bills were not enacted until eight months or more into the fiscal year.
2. Act on the money bills separately through the session as at present;
Mann said questionnaires were being made up now. Students in fraternities, sororites and residence halls will be asked to fill out the questionnaires, he said.
"The students can write what they want to," Mann said. "The questionnaires will be totally unstructured. The living groups will give us a good cross section of students."
After the questionaires are filled out, Mann said, the answers will be given to a team of 10 to 15 writers. Each writer will cover three departments or schools. He said these writers, who are graduate students and seniors, would condense answers into a one- or two-paragraph evaluation of the course and the course.
Mann said that Feedback was for both faculty and students but that the new publication would be for students because it was written by students.
The group realizes the limitations of such a project, he said.
"We don't expect to cover every course," he said, but Feedback can only cover the two most critical areas.
"We are the manspon source," he said.
If we can't find enough people to work, the company must make a difference.
Mann said that the honor society was backing the project but that it was not too costly.
Mann said that the honor society had been working on the project since the last week in January. The society's budget is apportioned among the items provided by Stromoum, Mann said.
"But we can't publish without ad- vtributing," Mann said. "We have sold some space, but we are not even near the minimum we need."
The group is seeking advertising from local merchants, Mum said, and it needs at least $150 million to fund the project.
Federgereg said he had nothing to do with a possible grand jury investigation of the Beech case, requested Tuesday by city commission candidate Gene Miller.
Mann said the tentative target date for
student access to the booklet was April 15.
Further Study Undertaken In Misuse of City Funds
Miller said at the time that Beech had said that a superior had ordered him to take his place.
Jerry Federede, special agent for the Kansas Attorney General's office, met with Lawrence City Manager Buford Watson and Douglas County investigator Jim Huskey to discuss his investigation. Federede described as accusations made in connection with the Robert Beech case.
"The Beech case is closed as far as I'm concerned," Federgreen said. "We're just checking on certain procedures the city has done, and I can't investigate it. I can't tell you at this time."
Beech, a former city collection office supervisor, pleaded no contest Thursday in Division I of Douglas County District Court to a charge of missing city water department funds. Judge Frank Gray sentenced Beech to three years probation.
"We had some people come into our office earlier in the week and make certain accusations, and all I'm doing is finding out if they're giving us the straight facts."
Federeregard would not say what the accusations specifically were nor would he name the person or persons who made them. He did admit, however, that the accusations were connected with the Beech case.
Federgereen said that he had talked with Ivy Hedges, the city's assistant director of finance; various secretaries who have handled accounts; and Watson. He would not say whether he planned to talk to other city employees.
