Special Days
The special inspector's staff has decided that any action involving alleged incidental involvement in the Watergate scandal should be up to the House impeachment inquiry rather than a grand jury, it was learned yesterday.

Sources close to the investigation said that the request for presidential testimony was made at the insistence of the grand jurors and that unless they continued to insist, no effort would be made to force Nixon to testify.

Rebel Soldiers Take Over Ethiopian City
Rebel army units took over Asmara, Ethiopia's second-largest city, yesterday to back demands for more pay, unofficial sources said.
There were reports that the uprising in Asmara, a city of 250,000 about 450 miles north of the capital city of Addis Ababa, had also spread 90 miles further.

Students Can Benefit From Tax Laws
If you take the Pill or have had a legal abortion, acupuncture or sterilization surgery, you can now deduct them as part of your medical care. You return. This is just one of several recent decisions by the Internal Revenue Service that have caused more confusion than ever.
Although students are often baffled at the complexities of the income tax return form, most of them have it relatively easy, local income tax services said yesterday.
Most students use the short Form 1040A with its standardized deductions table, such as Item #275.
"The average student doesn't take the itemized deduction," said Mogens Andersen, manager of H&R Block, Inc., at 723 Massachusetts St.
A student can earn up to $2,060 a year and not have to file a return at all, be said, because anyone who joins standard a tax return will receive a standard deduction of $1,300, and a personal tax credit.
"The reasons why students who make less file tax returns is because they want to get their money withheld in taxes back," he said. "$2,000 will get all of his withholding back."
Few students benefit from using the longer form and itemizing deductions because they don't earn enough and they do not understand the secretary for Murt I. Beal Accounting and
"They usually deduct some medical expenses and contributions," she said. "In some cases then can deduct school expenses.
There are six businesses in Lawrence that process individual income tax returns. Every year probably less than 200 students use the services.
Several services, however, reported that many more students call in for information to help them fill out their forms. Often, a student's parents will take care of his tax form for him, said Jim Christening, owner of the Tax Service at 2529 Missouri St.
The services take from 15 minutes to an hour to work the average student's federal and state income tax returns, depending on the income forms and special problems the student has.
Charges vary from service to service. Sieg said his firm charged a minimum of $10 an hour. Most students pay H&R Block's minimum fee of $ .Andersson said. He added that this fee had remained the same for many years. Christiinasson said that his minimum fee
Christianson said that his minimum fee was $10 but that he charged less and sometimes nothing to persons who didn't earn very much.

Nixon Future Unknown House Speaker Says
WASHINGTON (AP)—House Speaker Carl Albert, D-Oklahoma, said yesterday he didn't know whether President Nixon would be impeached.
Commenting on Nixon's statement at a Monday night news conference that he didn't expect to be impeached, Albert told reporters:
"If I would see as far ahead as the "President, I'd be president instead of something else . . . I don't now what will happen."

Asked whether he agreed with Nixon's statement that the energy crises is over, Mr. Bush asked if his party would
Asked whether he would support a price rollback on crude oil, the paying energy bill provides. Albert said, "I don't think it matters," and Piper wells. That would be self-defeating."
Stripper wells are those that produce a minimum amount of oil. Their output has a much higher rate than most other wells.
