Rv the Associated Press
Two American war prisoners flew home Tuesday and officials said most of the first group to be released would be back on U.S. soil for the weekend. But doctors report that a few asked to remain for plastic surgery to repair their wounds before going
“It’s less cosmetic than practical,” said a hospital staff member. “Some of these men have bad scars on their arms from being bound and wounded in others or in others wounded badly.”
one of the 27 Americans freed Monday by the Viet Cong reported he spent much of his five years' captivity in schackles and salitary confinement.
"I have spoken more since I was freed yesterday and in all the five years I was a prisoner," Michael Hugh Klonge, a civilian officer with the Clark Air Base Hospital in the Philippines.

sensitive. Kiome's doctors found him in good
condition. But like many of the men who have come back to freedom, he may have recurrence of malaria and probably suffers from a vitamin deficiency,
A few other Americans reportedly told of beatings and ill treatment, such as salt rubbed on wounds by their captors. Their comments were relayed by military spokesman Dan Hagen. They talked directly prevented newsmen from taking directly with the returned prisoners.

At the same time, Col. Bui Tin, chief spokesmen for the North Vietnamese delegation in Paris, also said the group of American missionaries held in South Vietnam would be released in

House Examines Equal Rights Law
Rejection of two Kansas House resolutions to rescind ratification of an equal rights amendment to the federal constitution seems probable, according to Emily Taylor, dean of women at the University of Kansas.
She said she expected committee action on the resolutions Wednesday.
Taylor, who testified against the resolutions before the KFC committee and two committees meeting
Tuesday said, "It would surprise me very much if the resolutions were passed."
More than 100 people attended the hearing in the Kansas capital to hear testimony on House Resolution 10-16 which provides for outright rejection of the ratification.
Eight Candidates Vie . . .

join with us in returning the government to the people.
`WE OPPOSE secret meetings. Let’s throw the doors of city hall open to the taxpayers and install three men on the front door, so that they can intern the interior for it to do the job which needs to be done, three men who are business-minded, who will take the time necessary to restore to city hall government run in a businesslike manner for the good of every citizen.
Two other candidates, Tola M. Ross, $9, of 2206 Orchard Lane, and Anna Laura Rusk, 2019 Ohio St., filed Monday in the commission race.
Koss, owner of Baskin-Robbies Ice Cream Store, 1524 W. 23rd St., said she considered her background as a business woman an asset in her bid for city commissioner.
SHE SAID that her campaign would focus on studying the role of the city manager and on proper utilization of Lawrence's one-half cent sales tax, which, she said, was established to assist in the maintenance of police and fire departments.
Rusk, who has been a resident of
Boston, can easily be a need for a
long term plan for the city.
One of her campaign suggestions is to use various monies now in deposit to build a new bridge across the Kansas River and restore waterway traffic. She is cooperating with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to dredge the river or add a second channel or canal with locks. This, she said, would make possible local commerce and drive traffic to seagoing ships at all ports.

News Briefs By the Associated Press Pact with Cuba
MIAMI BEACH-Secretary of State William Rogers said Tuesday an agreement with Cuba on curbing hijacking would be signed in a "few days." Rogers, who came to Schultz in June, met Schultz to discuss foreign trade issues with ALF-CIO leaders, refused to give newsmen any further details. In Washington, the State Department said a note received from Rogers during the weekend "made it clear only procedural details remain to be worked out."
Airport Security
WASHINGTON—The Federal Aviation Administration ordered airport managementes Tuesday to post an armed guard at each boarding point beginning the week of Sept. 25, a legal move to stave off the requirements originally scheduled to take effect Feb. 6. The guards will replace the U.S. deputy marshals and customs officers now embodying the law. Airline employees screening boarding passengers and inspecting hand luggage.
Government Cut
TOPEKA—A gradual reduction in the size of the Selective Service system staff in Kansas is scheduled during the remainder of this calendar year, Junior Elder, state Selective Service director, said Tuesday. The present 101-member staff was to be reduced 70 by June 30, ten more to be cut by Sept. 30, and another 10 by Dec. 15.
ENGINEERS
RUSK SAID SHE would call for the initiation of plans for constructing an administrative building to house city and county government and the retention of funds from the settlement 800 to 1,000 persons to accommodate various city and county meetings, she said.
City Commissioner J. R. Pullam, who last week withdrew from the commission race, filed for re-election the second time Tuesday.
Pulliam, 44, said that because of his past experience on the Lawrence Planning Commission and the Lawrence City Department, he would provide service to the community, especially with the Clinton Lake Planning Project, implementation of Federal Revenue Sharing, the East Lawrence Neighborhood Initiative (NDP), and anticipated NDP projects.

politics the Senate he does in administrative
He has been accused of playing politics to insure being named to the Chancellor and Athletic Director Search committees and the State College Coordinating Committee.
ADMINISTRATION SOURCES, however, deny that Dillon ever exerted pressure to be named to any administrative body. Rick Von Ende, University Executive Secretary, said he knew of no efforts by Dillon to be nominated for the position. Raymond Nicholas said flatly that "there was no campaigning or electioneering" in the selection of the search committees.
Max Bigford, Executive Secretary of the Board of Regents and the State Colleges Coordinating Committee, said that because he is a member of the student body as its president, it was only
logical that he be named to the Chancellor Search Committee. He noted that the minutes of the Sept. 15 Regent's meeting, when the committee members were announced, specified the president and vice president, the student body, the faculty, and the alumni.
Bickford said the State Colleges Coordinating Committee received a list of nominations for its officers, two names for each position. The committee voted to name the name listed for each position, and Dillon's name was the first list for chairman.
IN SPEAKING of his administrative activities, Dillon said, "It's been my experience that while people have told me that I probably would be a token student on one or two committees it hasn't been that way at all.
I think student input is very high right now."
Harley Huggins, D-Kansas City, called ratification of the amendment last March a cruel哼 on the state of Kansas. Huggins, a Republican, headed testimony against ratification.
Taylor, in testifying before the committee, said, "It doesn't change biological laws." There's no requirement that men start keeping house, but it would be help-
Some question was raised about whether the ratification could be rescinded, but Taylor said Tuesday that attention that a recent lawsuit brought against him in Kansas, held that it could not be changed.
She said the ratification passed in the Kansas Senate and was opposed by only eight senators.
Taylor said Tuesday night that 27 states had now ratified the amendment, the latest being New Mexico and South Dakota. She said the state has not ratified it however, but had tabled the indictment.

OUTRAGEOUS!
WEED FROM THE DEVIL'S GARDEN!
"THE WORST FILM I CAN RECALL SITTING THROUGH...EVER. A young victim is seduced into smoking the devil weed. No one seems to inhale, but it must be powerful stuff. Before the film is over, they all become screaming maniacs lumbering around like Frankenstein monsters, murdering people, leaping out of twelfth floor windows and tearing at their throats shouting 'Give me a reef!'." An incredible series of gross and ludicrous distortions that thirty six years later becomes hilarious when seen from the other side of the generation gap, a gap this film did so much to create."
