'Union goon' safe
Political payoff sparks conflict
WASHINGTON (UPI) — Sen.
Paul J. Fannin, R-Ariz., said
Sunday the Democratic party
apparently received a $100,000
political payoff last year after
the Johnson administration
refused to extradite a labor leader
wanted in Canada on a perjury
charge.
His allegation was made in a speech drafted for delivery on the Senate floor Monday in support of his amendment to the tax reform bill which would strip unions of their tax-exempt status if they engage in political activity.
The speech concerned Hal Banks, a U.S. citizen who was a leader of Canada's Seafarer's International Union in 1963 when he was cited for his testimony before a royal Canadian commission about an assault that occurred in 1958.
Banks was found by a Canadian newspaperman living on a union yacht in the Brooklyn section of New York City. Canada sought his return but Secretary

"Shortly after his decision," Fannin said, "$5,000 checks began pouring into various Democratic presidential campaign committees around the country until the total contribution amounted to $100,000—which was reached within a few days. . . .
of State Dean Rusk, after a hearing in his office, rejected the request.
"It is not right," Fannin said, for a union goon . . . to be allowed to roam free in the United States as the result of what appears to be a $100,000 political payoff."
Fannin said he has been pressing Rusk's successor, Secretary of State William P. Rogers, to review Rusk's decision. Fannin said he has not received a reply from Rogers.
"Actually, I'm an actress and part time student at the University of California at Los Angeles," said red-headed, 20-year-old Claudia Jennings. "I'm not a bunny—some people think the two are the same."
Miss Jennings was in Lawrence to visit a high school friend, Mary Rudiger, Evanston, Ill., sophomore. She arrived Sunday afternoon and will leave Monday afternoon for Little Rock, Ark., to work with a theatre in the round group.
An intoxicating new adult game!

Playboy Magazine discovered Miss Jennings while she was working with a theatre group in Los Angeles, she said.
"They started photographing me about a year ago for the magazine," she said. "It took about six months because I was working all the time. They took thousands and thousands of pictures."
Playboy has provided her with "great publicity," Miss Jennings said. After her photograph appeared in the magazine, Twentieth Century Fox gave her a screen test and she now has a contract for two movies a year.
The November playmate ot Playboy Magazine sat calmly in the living room of the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity house Sunday afternoon and looked "almost" like any other coed.
"Sometimes people think they know me but they can't quite place me," she explained. "They come up to me and say 'I've seen your face' and I'm thinking 'that isn't all you've seen,' " she said laughingly.

Of the book readers, 31.2 per cent prefer modern novels, followed by historical and biographical novels and travel books. There was very little interest in poetry.
"They just sture like they don't think I'm real."
Although she doesn't think any father would be happy to see his daughter in the Playboy center foldout, Claudia's parents were "a lot better about it" than she thought they would be.
Her father is an advertising
manager and her mother is a professor at the University of Chicago.
She has never been in Kansas before, Miss Jennings said, although she almost came to KU with Mary Rudiger. At that time she was modeling in Chicago and decided to stay with that instead.
