Libya Nationalizes 3 U.S. Oil Companies
In Tripoli, Col. Meemmar Khadufy nationalized the Libyan operations of three American oil companies yesterday in response to what he called 'terrorism' against the country's oil industry.
A government deed issued by Khadifa's Revolutionary Command Council ordered total nationalization of the operations of Texaco, California.
In Washington, government officials said if Libya had seized the oil companies' holdings for a political purpose, Washington would encourage them to do so.
Most Truckers Abandon Protest Shutdown
Despite pockets of resistance from militant drivers, the majority of independent truckers yesterday abandoned their protest against assaults.
After 11 violence-scared days that left two drivers dead, scores injured and 100,000 workers temporarily without a job, truck traffic was reported at near-normal levels in most states and vital production was rolling once more to market.
Officials at several Midwest livestock markets reported receipts close to or above prestrike levels. Truck stops in a number of states began pumping
Solzhenitsyn Rejects Prosecutor Summons
Alexander Solizenit, author of "Gaila Archipelago," a harsh criticism of Stalinist labor camps, rejected yesterday in Moscow a summation to the question of what happens to people who fall into the trap.
The prosecutor's office delivered a summons to the apartment of Solzhenitsyn's wife last Friday, but she refused to accept it. The second summons was delivered yesterday and Solzhenitsyn said he refused to acknowledge the legality of the summons.
After a furious campaign of official press denunciations of Solzhentyan and his book, the prosecutor's action could be the start of an attempt to overthrow him.
Four States. D.C. Adopt Gas Ration Plan
Service stations in Washington, D.C., New Jersey, Massachusetts, New York and Washington started rationing gasoline Oregon-style yesterday. Pennsylvania and Maryland will adopt a similar plan later this week, sources said.
The plan restricts gasoline sales on even-numbered days to motorists whose license plates end in even-numbered digits, and vice versa. Generally, motorists whose plate bears letters instead of digits can get gasoline on old days and out-of-state motorists are exempted.

Funding Battle Continues
By BETH RETONDE Kansan Staff Reporter
TOPEKA-Competitive faculty salaries are essential if talented instructors and superior classroom teaching are to be maintained, Chancellor Archie R. Dykes told the Kansas House Ways and Means Committee yesterday.
The committee is reviewing budget requests for the six state supported universities and colleges. Several requests made by the Kansas Board of Regents were made by Mr. Docking's proposed budget, which he presented to the legislature in January.
per cent increase in faculty salaries for the University of Kansas and Wichita State University and an 11 per cent increase for Kansas State University, Emporia State College, Fort Hays State College and Kansas State College at Pittsburg.
Docking has recommended an 8.5 per cent increase in salaries.
IN THE OPENING STATEMENT to the 23-man committee, Carl L. Courtier, chairman of the Board of Regents, said the board fully supported the salary increase because the faculties at the state schools received no salary increase in 1972, even though other state employees were given a raise that year, and because some faculty
members were interested in organizing for the purpose of bargaining for better
Although faculty organization isn't necessarily wrong, he said, the board supports the alternative of giving adequate time to students who have to organize into barrining units.
The other item supported by the regents is a requested 10 per cent increase in other programs. The other request requests to 7.4 per cent for educational programs, 8 per cent for the physical plant, 6 per cent for the Kansas Geological Survey, 6 per cent for research and 6 per cent for education.
Oil Importers Begin Talks
WASHINGTON (AP)—A conference of 13 energy-consuming nations began cautiously yesterday, seeking a new way to agree on "rules of conduct" for buying foreign oil without appearing to threaten oil-exporting countries.
Opening the two-day conference, U.S. Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger said bilateral oil agreements by individual countries are more problems and might make them far worse.
"We believe that it is essential that these
Six of Ling's Houses Condemned

This Property Condemned
Condemnation notices were posted on six houses yesterday by the city minimum house insurance company.

Ed Covington, housing inspector, said that he has placed noticed on the condemned building.
Covington said he looked for "dangerous, unhealthy situations" when he inspected
Ling had been given until the end of last November to repair conditions that were in violation of the city's housing code. Ling would comment on the condemnations last night.
六 apartment houses near the University of Kansas campus were condemned yesterday by the city minimum housing inspector. All six houses are owned by Daniel Ling, professor of physics and astronomy.
The condemned houses are at 1128, 1131,
1228, and 1301 Ohio St., 1245 Louisiana St.
and 1321 Tennessee St. Many of the apart-
ments in these buildings are rented by
University students.
"It was kind of shocking to come home and find out I wasn't supposed to live here anymore," said Mark Creamer of 1321 Tennessee St.
controversy between the owner of the buildings and the city.
Tenants living in the six houses said they weren't warned that their houses were going to collapse.
Most of the problems stem from electrical violations, he said.
"We're certainly not prepared to move out," said Bow Dibson, Ferguson, Mo. "Just keep it on."
None of the tenants said they knew of anyone making complaints about their housing conditions and all called Ling a "good landlord."
Creamer said he would probably move out soon but she said the city wouldn't be able to do that.
Bowman said the apartment above hers had a problem with cockroaches in the kitchen. Sometimes, she said, they cover the floor at night.
There's no point in fixing the broken pipes now, he said, because the main furnace is broken and the basement can't be kept there to keep the pipes from freezing again.
Creamer said his apartment had had no water at all because the pipes had burst. He said he took showers at a friend's house and brought in drinking and plumbing water.
He said, however, that there were heaters in all the rooms so the temperature in the house was comfortable despite the broken furnace.
Creamer he thought the condemnations were "a political thing." He said he thought the city was after Ling Hsu and his reputation for owning "trashed-ut places."
Covington said that according to the city ordinance the tenants would have to vacate their properties.
"This is, of course, ridiculous," he said. He said, however, that it would defeat the purpose of the housing ordinances if tenants were allowed to occupy the houses for an infrequent period of time.
"Sure it's a hassle," he said, "an expensive hassle."
Covington said he was helping the tenants in a round-about way.
Linda Triplet, director of the Consumer Protection Association (CPA) said yesterday that the CPA had referred only five complaints from tenants about substandard housing to Covington's office last semester.
"When a cop gives you a ticket he's doing it because he wants to save your life, but when you get the ticket you think he's an s.o. b." he said.
arrangements follow agreed rules of conduct." Kissinger said.
The tenants are better off moving out of these houses, 'he said.
Many tenants don't complain, she said,
because they don't mind or because they
aren't.
THE EUROPEAN NATIONS at the conference have been pressing for an early meeting of both consuming nations and oil-roducing nations.
Those attending the sessions include foreign ministers, finance chiefs and energy experts from the United States, Japan, Canada and Norway and nine members of the European Common Market: France, West Germany, the Netherlands, Great Britain, Italy, Denmark, Ireland, Luxembourg and Belgium.
THE CONFERENCE participants have repeatedly emphasized that they had no intention of making this meeting into a diplomatic event. The United Nations producing nations that precipitated the world crisis by cutting off deliveries to some countries last October and by sharply influencing them.
Walter Schoel, West Germany's foreign minister and president of the Council of European Communities, urged a conference of all interested nations—including all developing countries—by April 1, one month earlier than proposed by Kissinger.
Arab oil shipments have since been resumed to most European countries but
Kissinger said the United States would seek no help at this conference in response.
DYKES TOLD THE COMMITTEE that increased funding of operating expenses was necessary to help the University keep inflated costs for materials and supplies.
EUROPE RELIES on imports for about 60 per cent of its energy.
Kissinger warned that failure to resolve the energy problem by international cooperation "would threaten the world with a vicious cycle of competition, autarchy, rivalry and depression such as led to the collapse of world order in the '30s."
"The most immediate and critical problem concerns price," Kissinger said.
"The 10 per cent increase the regents have requested will help us hold our own and perhaps make some small improvement," he said. "The inflationary spiral has been particularly acute in books and publications for our libraries, in support for many of our medical programs, and in a number of the scientific fields."
Del Shankel, executive vice chancellor for the Lawrence campus, also appeared before the committee to emphasize specific needs if were needed at the Lawrence campus.
THESE ITEMS INCLUDED women's intercollegiate athletics, Supportive Educational Services, laboratory equipment, North Hall and a new computation center.
The University had requested $88,575 to fund women's intercollegiate athletics. Docking had deleted from his budget the entire amount the regents had requested.
Shankel said the moral and ethical commitment to provide the same opportunities to women as to men, regulations requiring equitable support for both men's and women's programs and women's incomes justified the funding of the program.
Shankel said federal funds could be lost if equitable facilities weren't provided by the state. He also said the number of women's intercollegiate athletic events had increased from 185 in 2006 to 188, a number of men's events has increased to 185 from 160 during the same time period.
"I don't like the federal threat any better than any of you, but it is there and I believe that unless we make provisions for com-
municipalities to deal with this we could be heading for trouble," he said.
"The BOARD WAS CONVINCED," Courter said, "after listening to the administrators, that this is an area where we must make sure we respond for those who want to participate.

Potato Provides Food for Thought
By BUNNY MILLER
Kansas Staff Reporter
If you've been wondering lately why you haven't been thinking too clearly and if you've noticed an increased sex urge, you may need too much meat and not enough potatoes.
If what some scientists are saying is true, meat lovers may be sexual athletes but they aren't as bright as potato, bread and dessert freaks.
Recent studies say that certain foods may cause insomnia and exaggerated sexual activity. A different food group, they say, may produce more desirable effects, such as increased brain alertness, increased attention, and reduced appetite and increased motivation.
Scientists base this theory on animal studies showing that different types of foodstuffs can alter the amount of a brain cell, which is involved in the activity of brain nerve cells.
Carbohydrates, found in sugars and
Every student in a residence hall knows that spaghetti shows up on the menu a lot more often than steak. For years the so-called starchiness of dorm food has been a point of complaint. But now these students can spoon in all the potatoes and bread they desire, and smile with the knowledge that they are feeding their brains.
If the studies are valid, University of Kansas residence hall residents can rest easy. Their daily fare contains plenty of "brain food."
starchy foods like spaghetti, increase the available serotonin, scientists say. But lots of protein foods, like steak or milk, can reduce it.
Lenore Ekdahl, food service director, said the residence hall menu "follow the four basic food groups all the way through." Each meal, she said, contains three ounces of protein, at least three vegetables and a fresh fruit.
She said the Academy of Science recently
A week's residence hall menu showed that students could choose from about 48 dishes containing mainly carbohydrates or sugars and about 36 dishes containing pure protein or partly protein foods. This doesn't include pasta in the food, which is available at every meal.
recommended a reduction from 70 grams of protein a day to 56 grams. This reduced protein requirement has no connection with the "brain food" reports, she said.
A typical lunch or dinner includes two meat dishes, a potato dish, bread or rolls, a yellow and a green vegetable, tossed salad and a pickle salad, two or three desserts and a soup.
Could residence hall cafeterias cut out protein foods entirely? Could droom residents subsist on a diet made entirely of brain food, breads, vegetables, fruits and desserts? Ekdahl answers with a resounding "no."
"We have to have a balanced diet," she said. "That's the only way."
