Rebozo 'Secret Partner' Nixon's friend in San Clemente Deal

SAN CLEMENTE, Calif.—President Nixon's closest friend, C. G. "Bebu" Rebozo, was disclosed yesterday as the secret partner who joined with another friend, Robert Kahn, to build the bunk of the Nixon San Clemente property 2% years ago.
The deal was made public in what the Western White House described as an unprecedented step that it hoped "would to rest once and for all" what were described as "false impressions and false allegations about the purchase of the San Clemente property."
Voluminous documents were released, including what Gerald Warren, deputy press secretary, said was a complete account of the attack. The Coomers and Lybrand of New York City.
It shows that the President and his wife, Mrs. Pat Nixon, agreed in December, 1970, to sell for $1,245,000 all except 5.9 acres of their 28.9-acre property on the Pacific
Ocean to Ablanparal and Rebozo as copatrants in the IDEC Investment Co.
The White House had disclosed last May that Abplaina, a wealthy New York industrialist, had bought the property, and that Nixon retained ownership of his San Clemente home and about one-fourth of the land he originally bought in 1969.
However, the disclosure of Rebozo's partnership in the transaction had been delayed.
The figures in the latest report appeared to be consistent with the figures released in
The documents released gave this account of the complex San Clemente trench.
On July 15, 1969, the Nixons agreed to buy the house and 28 acres of land from a California family for $1.4 million. On Oct. 1, 1970, they adjoined an adjoining 2.9-acre tract for $100,000.
On the larger tract, Nixon paid $400,000 and executed a $1-million mortgage.
On the smaller tract, he paid $20,000 down and got an $80,000 mortgage.
The President made the larger down payment with proceeds of a $450,000 loan from Abplaain, a millionaire and owner of the company that makes most of the products.
A year later Nixon borrowed another $175,000 from Abalampla to pay the first installation on the $1,300 mortgage. He bought his indebtedness to Abalampla at $825.
On Dec. 15, 1917, he sold the smaller parcel and 20.1 acres of the larger parcel to the B&C company. The company assumed $660,000 of the amount owed on the larger tract, the full $64,000 owed on the smaller parcel, and $380,000 in loans made by Ablpmana to Nixon.

Dykes Asks Support In KU's 'New Era'
By BOB SIMISON Kansan Staff Reporter
Chancellor Archie R. Dykes, wearing for the first time the ceremonial silver chancelor's medalation, called yesterday for the visit of the new "new era" of increased importance.
After his official installation as KU's 12th chancellor, Dykees led a 20-minute statement of issues and opportunities facing KU to an opening convocation crowd of 6,000 students, faculty and special guests in Allen Field House.
"I pledge to give unstintingly of my time and energy in the months ahead in responding to the needs and aspirations of our students, and here on the campus and across the state," Dykes said. "This morning, I want to ask all of you-students, faculty and staff—who are going to attend."
He set these goals for his administration, which began July 1 after the 10-month administration of Chancellor Emeritus Raymond Nichols.
"We will maintain our excellence in undergraduate education and our concern
"We will extend this institution in greater service to our state."
"We will stimulate lively involvement in research and scholarship,
"We will labor to improve compensation for a superb faculty.
*We will be sensitive—we will respond*
to the inspiration of the Kansas people.
"We will grow in stature and strength through democratic processes."
Dykes spoke after an introduction in which Gov. Robert Docking called him "a man I am confident can become an officer." The Klineman, a member of the Kansas Board of Regents, then read Dykes the charge of office as Paul Wilson, professor of law and university marshal, hung the silver knife during the kungu around Dykes' neck.
When Dykes turned to face the faculty and students he received a standing welcome. He was flanked on the platform by Docking, Nichols, members of the Board of Education, and the chairmen, the academic deans and the student body, all in academic garb.
Dykes said that he believed the University was "entering a new era and that the circumstances in the future will be very different from those of the past."
"I also believe that the role of education in the society of the future will be even larger than in the past if we respond appropriately to the new opportunities before us," he said.
Speaking in a firm, clear voice, his words pronounced with the vowels of a Tennessee accent, he was a charismatic leader.

"new problems and opportunities to which we must respond in the future."
"Since the student is the primary reason for a university, let us begin there," he said. "This morning, as we begin a new academic year, let us commit ourselves to a continuation and even improvement of the distinguished record the University of Kansas has achieved in the nation's universities for excellence in undergraduate teaching and learning."

But he also pledged that the University would "respond to this challenge" of conflating "conservatism and socialism."
And he said that the University "must be a place where the limits of knowledge are enlarged, where new discoveries are made and where the world is stealthily self- and his world is steadily expanding."
It therefore must seek to achieve excellence in graduate education, research and teaching.

American Party Split In Kansas Squabble
By JOHN PIKE
Corporal Staff Reports
All is far from quiet on the conservative political front in Kansas.
Saturday's convention of the American Party of Kansas, Inc., ended with the newly formed offshoot of the old American Party of Kansas confirmed the election of its new president. The party recognized the national party to recognize it as the legitimate American party in the state.
The convention took place at the Douglas County State Bank, Ninth and Kentucky street.
Each of those actions added heat to the feud between the incorporated party and the original party. It is more probable than ever that the battle will end only with a credentials committee fight at the national convention in New Orleans in October.
The new party, under its state chairman David Stallard, of Topeka, wants to work with the Republican candidates. Members also are concerned about what they claim is a predominance in the Hall faction of people who are registered Republicans and Democrats, rather than
The older group, under its state chairman Ray Hall, a Kansas State University professor, is primarily concerned with the institution, according to the incorporated party.
The party split is concerned primarily with a difference in political opinion between the two parties.
Hall was acknowledged state chairman by both factions until May 25, when Stallard was elected at a party convention in Abilene. Hall's supporters have refused to honor the election, however, because it took place after the delegates were forced to leave their meeting hall because of a bombing attack on the house. 17 of the 25 delegates attending went to another building down the street and held the election.
"This party wants to get organized," Tom Horn, 2039 Naismith Beach, said Saturday. "If my understanding of a political party is that it's to elect candidates to political office."
Hart is the national committeewor
both factions, but a prime mover of the
incorporated party and a strong supporter of Stallard.
Hall has accused Hart of thinking himself an expert at grass-roots politics, and Hart indicated Saturday that that was where his plans for the party lay.
Hart said he wanted to see the party organize at county, ward and precinct levels to elect candidates to all levels of government.
Hall's group was invited to attend the convention, but no opposition was shown to it. Hall and his friends were a part of the
The national party vice chairman, in a telegram to Elwil Shanahan, Kansas secretary of state, stated Friday that the Lawrence convention should not be recognized as a convention of the American Party of Kansas and that the Hall faction was the only group in the state legally entitled to use of the party name.
19,241 Enrolled At 2 Campuses
A record 19,241 students are now enrolled at the University of Kansas according to preliminary figures released by Registrar William Kelly.
At the Lawrence campus, 17,623 students enrolled, an increase of 44 from last fall, and 1,589 students enrolled at the Kansas City University in Kansas City, 264 more than a year ago.
The figures do not reflect late enrolments. Kelly estimated there would be 950 late enrollees at the Lawrence campus and 90 at the Medical Center, which would boost the final University total to about 20,280.
John Conard, director of University relations, said that the 19,241 figure included 142 students in 'easy access' courses designed for Lawrence area residents. The courses are taught in the evenings and on weekends.
On the Lawrence campus, men still outnumber women students by a wide margin, 10.571 to 7.081. Kelly said, however, that there were 38 more women enrolled at Lawrence than a year ago and only six more men.
