Hearst missed in March
SACRAMENTE—Patricia Hearst and Emily and William Harris narrowly escaped detection in March after the body of a murder victim was found near their home.
**Imrece Sgt. Sam Somers** had the hideout, a run-down duplex, was visited during the investigation of robbery and murder which was unrelated to SLA activism.
But Somers denied a report in this week's Time magazine that the aliases used by the three were found on police records after federal agents discovered the
Time said, that the police, conducting questioning of neighbors, interviewed the Harrises and Hearst, who were using assigned names. Time said Heartt was known as Sue Hendricks, Emily Harris as Suzanne Lanpear and Bill Harris Steve Broudy.
Tax proposal criticized
WASHINGTON—Two congressional economic leaders yesterday on ABC's "Issues and Answers" criticized President Ford's proposed $28 billion tax cut, saying it shouldn't be made permanent and predicting it wouldn't win Congressional approval.
Sen. William Proxmire, chairman of the Senate Banking Committee, said Ford's proposal to cut taxes taken at the start of 1976 election year and sought to delay approval would "leave many businesses unaccounted."
Rep. George H. Mahon, chairman of the House Appropriations Committee, said the proposed tax cut was too large. Ford coupled his proposal for a tax cut last week with a demand that federal spending also be reduced by $28 billion. Proxmire and Mahon agreed that spending cuts could be made.
Venezuela nationalized oil
CARACAS, Venezuela—Twenty-nine oil companies, most of them American, will be presented today with formal compensation offers totaling about $900 million for their nationalized holdings in Venezuela, the government announced over the weekend.
The companies, which operate an oil industry averaging 2.4 million barrels a day, are required to hand over their concessions and property to the state by Dec. 31 under the terms of an oil nationalization law approved by congress and signed by President Carlos Andres Perez on Aug. 29.
Under provisions of the law, the government must make formal compensation offers to the companies by Oct. 13.
Unofficially, it has been reported that compensation will be paid in government bonds over a period of 10 years at an interest rate ranging between six and eight
NY welcomes aid call
NEW YORK-Vice President Nelson A. Rockefeller's call for quick congressional action to help New York City was welcomed yesterday by state and city leaders.
"I was beginning to think there was no voice left in Washington that remembered what this city and its people are all about," said Mayer Abraham D. Beame. The state's Emergency Financial Control Board will receive a stringent new requirement economies from Beame Oct. 15 and must decide whether it is adequate by Oct. 29.
This, Rockefeller will, provide evidence of the sincerity of the city's fiscal reforms and should yield urgent Congressional action.
He said the action was necessary to prevent "catastrophe."
Irish martyr named saint
VATICAN CITY—Pope Paul VI canonized Oliver Flinket, an Irish Catholic nanged by Protestant England, as a martyric saint of the Roman Catholic Church.
The pontifice made no direct reference to Northern Ireland's sectarian violence which Pinkerton, with 10th century archbishop of Armagh and primate of Ireland, had been accused of.
The Irish Republic announced it would release 84 prisoners—none classified as political—in recognition of Plunket's elevation to sainthood.

If that bill passed, Mills said, the
federal agency would pay the fiscal
year's beginning, April 15th.
"That bill won't affect us this year," he to. How to help. "We need a suppleman's appropriation bill."
Mills said the possibility of an appropriation of capitation grants at the fiscal year 1975 level was quite likely for fiscal year 1977.

Department of Health, Education and
Welfare, was recently reported to have

Mills said he couldn't guess how much of
"It would be nice if we got the entire $50,000, because that's how much we're short."
the 890,000 the Med Center would receive for this fiscal year.
The Med Center's decision on whether it will still ask for a supplemental legislative request of $770,000 from the state would amount to how much money is given to the Med Center.
If the fund cut is fully restored, he said, then Med Center officials would probably request withdrawal of the supplemental appropriation and lower the fees to their former level, depending on the date of the appropriation.
"It would depend on what they decide to appropriate," he said.
Med Center officials would be pleased if the funds were allocated for this year, he said.
ROLFS SAID, "I really don't know what procedures ExE is talking about. The commission was established, did its work, and ready to report to the Student Senate."
"The work of the commission is not really subject to faculty approval," he said. "It's totally up to the Senate to what do with the report and where to send it. The report isn't under the jurisdiction of SenEx in any way."
Chris Iliff, commission chairman, and other commission members will discuss the report and answer questions at the Senate's next meeting Oct. 22, Rolfs said. He said there probably would be a motion for the Senate to approve the report.
Gerhard Zuther, SenEx chairman, said at Friday's regular SenEx meeting the report wasn't going through proper channels. SenEx voted to have Zuther send Roffs a SenEx report to have Zuther capture the current status of the commission's report and what would be done with it.
HOWEVER, ROLFS said some of the commission's recommendations would have to go through student-faculty committees to be implemented.
Charges that the Commission on the Quality of Classroom Teaching isn't following proper procedures for the approval and dissemination of its report aren't true, Ed Rolfs, student body president, said yesterday.
"On those matters that directly affect faculty and students, I'm sure student-faculty committees will have the opportunity to get involved," he said. "I'm planning on writing letters to the different governing bodies that might want to consider some of the commission's recommendations."
Arthur Breiphel, faculty SenEx member, said, "Many groups are interested in this report and want to get involved. I think the students will be impressed by it and improve instruction and it wants to help."
Frances Horowitz, faculty SenEx member, said that if the conclusions were acted upon, the action should be handled in an official fashion. This called student and faculty representatives.
Robert Casad,SenEx member, said, "I don't have enough information to feel comfortable about taking a firm stand. We should hear from Shankel about just how important these new faculty positions would be."
Other matters SenEx discussed were increases in the number of faculty positions and changes in selection and review policies in campus,ancellors, deans and department chairmen.
SENEX WASN'T SURE whether to oppose a recent statement by Gov. Robert F. Bennett that he would oppose an increase in response in response to enrollment increases.
Breiphol said, "I know we want and need the faculty positions but as a matter of principle I don't want to tie faculty positions to enrollment. We've been working for a long time to have positions determined by the needs of individual programs."
The University of Kansas full-time enrollment is six per cent higher this fall
SenEx voted to ask Chancellor Archie R. Dykes and Del Shankel, executive vice chancellor, to come to a SenEx meeting "at night" to discuss and explain their views on the subject.
Rolfs says teaching report hasn't been mismanaged
Discussion of the selection and review policies took more than an hour, but no final action was taken. The committee for the organization had already established abilities (FRPR) and for Organization and

SenEx agreed that the initial appointments of vice chancellors, deans and department chairmen shouldn't be for more than five years and that the records of these officials should be reviewed every five years.
Administration have also been studying the policies.
Some SenEx members said review committees for department chairmen should include department members because they should be responsible to their departments.
Joel Gold, faculty SemEx member, said FRPR would discuss the policies at a conference and demonstrate the concentration on how specific the outline of review procedures should be and on whether review committees for department chairmen should include department staff.
"I think we'll sound out the administration," Gold said.
SenEx members said they hoped their list of suggestions for changes in selection and review policies could be completed within a few weeks, but they might be sent to the University Council.
