conspiracy in the Watergate break-in trial, said it was another of the break-in conspirators. G. Gordon Liddy, who told him that he had approved the intelligence operation.
Asked how he knew Liddy meant Mitchell, Hunt said Liddy always referred to Mitchell "as the big man and also as the big boy."
His answer drew a laugh from Mitchell, one of five defendants charged with conspiring to block investigation of the Watersate break-in.
The other defendants are former White House aides H. R. Halerman and John D. Ehrlichman, former assistant attorney general Robert C. Mardian, and Kenneth W. Parkinson, one-time attorney for the Nixon re-election committee.
The prosecutors cited several instances in which Hunt allegedly lied to a grand jury after he was given immunity from prosecution in exchange for his cooperation.
OVER PROTESTS from defense attorneys, U.S. District Judge John J. Sirica agreed to a prosecutive request to call Hunt as a court witness. This meant that both attorneys and their case attorneys could ask leading questions in an attempt to get him to tell all he knows.
Hunt, a former CIA agent and an author of spy novels, told how he was recruited by him to help develop a political intelligence capability for the Nixon re-election committee.
He testified that Luddy "asked me to help him prepare a budget related to certain projects desired by the attorney general, Dean and Mr. Jeb Stuart Magruser."
DEAN WAS THEN White House counsel
and Magruder was acting director of the re-
legislation.
Hunt testified that he helped Likid prepare a budget of nearly $1 million for a plan code-named Gemstone that included illegal break-ins and electronic surveillance as well as kidnapping squads and prosecute to compromise prominent Democrats.
Twice, Liddy's proposed intelligence program was developed in Mitchell's Justice Department office.
But in early April 1972, Hunt said, the plan was scaled down to a budget of "something under $25,000," and it was then that Liddy "the big man had given his approval."
Asked whether the scaled-down plan still contained plans for bugging and illegal commerce.
Hunt said Mitchell was to occupy the same hotel suite in Miami Beach, where both national political conventions were held. He also served as National Chairman Lawrence F. O'Brien.
The Democrats met first. Hunt said Lidy quoted Michelton as telling him, "be sure to vote for her."
Senate sponsors outreach effort for high schools
A program to assist prospective students in getting acquainted with the University of Kansas is being sponsored this fall by the Student Senate.
She said the volunteers would take catalogues to their former high schools and possibly meet with prospective students. She also mentioned that the high school seniors who visit the campus.
KU volunteers involved in the Statewide Activities Program will write to high school counselors within the next two weeks and attempt to establish contacts with high school students. Tede Tasheff, chairman of the Senate's Communications Committee, said recently.
Tasheff said the group would get names of people who had already applied to the University from the Office of Admissions and attempt to contact them.
The University sponsored a recruiting program about five years ago, but the present system will primarily aid students who already want to come here, she said.
About 20 KU students have volunteered to participate in the program. The group is now searching for more students to represent western Kansas, Tashef said.

City garage site reccommended

Kallenbach said disadvantages of the 19th and Haskell site were its non-industrial zoning, protest from surrounding area residents who want to retain the site as a
park and inability to consolidate with county department or water department and by the state agency.
Other sites Kallenbach listed in the top five were 12th and Haskell streets, 2nd and Minnesota streets and E. 23rd Street near the County Yard.
