Blacks ask recognition
CHARLESTON, S.C. - Nearly 2,000 persons marched yesterday in support of striking hospital workers and Rev. Ralph Abernathy vowed to issue a "national call" for reinforcements unless the state recognizes their union.
The Negro orderlies, nurses' aides and kitchen employees are demanding representation by Local 1199B of the Drug and Hospital Workers Union.
USSR move Stalinist
WASHINGTON - Sen. Henry M. Jackson, a strong supporter of President Nixon's proposed Safeguard ABM system, said yesterday, the Soviet Union was drifting back towards Stalinism under leaders who "are not exactly competent."
The Washington Democrat, Nixon's first choice as defense secretary and long a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, said the Kremlin was following "a belligerent course" charted in part by political commissars of the Soviet armed forces.
May Day tests Czech will
PRAGUE — Communist Party Chief Gustav Husak yesterday reviewed Czechoslovakia's May Day observances as successful "tests of the correctness" of the nation's return to Soviet-style Communism.
"The nearly two million people who took part in the May Day processions and meetings confirmed confidence in the leadership of Party and state," Husak told a plenary session of the Slovak Communist Party in Bratislava.

'Life' says he took $20,000
Continued from page 1)
Article II of the Constitution states that "the President, vice president, and all civil officers of the United States shall be removed from office on impeachment for and conviction of treason, bribery or other high crimes and misdemeanors."
Power to impeach
The Senate has the sole power to try cases of impeachment which only the House can bring. Only one member of the Court, associate justice Samuel Chase, was ever tried. He won acquittal March 1, 1805.
Fortas acknowledged in his letter to Life that he had made the visit and was present at a meeting of the foundation "during which some of those present described some of its programs and, as I recall, discussed some of the pending scholarship applications."
Paul Porter, a former Fortas law partner, was quoted by Life as saying the $20,000 was paid after Wolfson asked the justice to help trustees of the foundation decide on future charitable and scholarship programs.
The Fortas letter to Life declining an interview observed that his former law firm had been retained by a Wolfson company before he became a Supreme Court justice.
In August, 1966, a federal grand jury began taking testimony on Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) charges against Wolfson and several of his associates. Indictments were returned in New York City in September and October of that year.
On Dec. 22, 1966, Life reported,
Fortas drew a check for $20,000 from his personal account payable to the foundation, "thus paying back the money he had received from the Wolfson Foundation more than 11 months earlier."
Life wrote that Porter said Fortas returned the $20,000 because, "the
business of the court took so much of his time he couldn't do the work of the foundation."
No 'fix'
Life said that there is no evidence that Wolfson sought to get Fortas to "fix" the proceedings against him but indicated that Fortas' association may have been used for "name dropping" purposes during his criminal trials.
Wolfson lost his Supreme Court appeal on April 1 and on April 25 surrendered himself to authorities at the federal prison camp at Elgin Air Force Base in Florida to begin serving his term.
The financier said three days earlier in an interview with the Wall Street Journal that he could have received a pardon and had been assured this by "somebody who is close as anybody could be to Mr. Johnson."
The Senate's refusal to confirm Fortas to be chief justice last year was one of former President Johnson's most resounding congressional defeats.
The fight began in June when Johnson announced that he would nominate Fortas to succeed Chief Justice Earl Warren and a former Texas congressman, Homer
Fire burns room of Kappa Sigmas
Bob Kaufman, Clavendon Hills, Ill., sophomore, was shooting "carp, not craps," last night while his room was on fire.
Upon returning to the Kappa Sigma house after his outing he also discovered the fire had been extinguished before his arrival.
The alarm was turned in shortly after 12 a.m., and the Lawrence Fire Department arrived shortly thereafter. The fire apparently started in a lounge chair in the room, Kaufman said. It then spread to the draperies and ceiling. Kaufman said he owned the chair.
Several witnesses said they thought it was an electrical fire, but Kaufman believed a cigarette was the cause.
Thornberry, to be an associate justice.
Republicans immediately raised the cry of "cronyism" on grounds Fortas had been a close adviser to Johnson before the President named him to the court in 1965 and Thornberry, a U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals judge, had been a protege of Johnson's.
On Oct. 1, the Senate all but killed chances of Fortas' confirmation by refusing to curb the filibuster and a day later, Johnson withdrew the nomination at the associate justice's request.
Madison riot

appeared at a street dance to tell several young people to lower the volume of the record player. The dance was staged by a group of students despite an earlier rejection of their request for a block party permit.
Police said a large crowd began to gather when the police appeared. Rocks, bricks and other missiles were thrown at the officers, who retaliated with tear gas.
"This is stupid," one youth said later. "If they'd have let us have the damned block none of this would have happened."
Bands of police invaded several homes to apprehend some youths while others fled.
A barricade of scrap wood, garbage cans and other refuse was piled in one street. A nearby construction site served as a supply of rocks.
Tear gas and flight
At one point a squad car rammed the barricade, spraying tear gas as it crashed through into a crowd of youths. The young people retreated into adjacent homes, many of which house students.
Police with gas masks and clubs rushed through the barricade behind the speeding car. The barricade was removed by police but was put back by the youths as soon as the officers rushed to another trouble spot.
Teacher remembered at Danforth Chapel
In the serenity of Danforth Chapel, close friends of the late Miss Elise Neuenschwander gathered yesterday in a memorial service offered in remembrance of her and her nearly 70 years of dedication to KU.
The chapel was dimly lit by the altar light. The campanile chimed respectfully in the distant background as the Rev. Harold M. Mallett of the First Presbyterian Church conducted the service.
Seated in the mahogany pews were aged friends with salt-and-pepper gray or white heads and lined faces indicating the years gone by and reflecting the memories of a forceful character, sparkling eyes and a saving humor, vigorous and dedicated.
There were other faces, some of foreign descent, who seemed to understand the words of the German and French hymns sung

by Reinhold Schmidt, professor of voice.
The younger faces were colleagues or one-time students of hers as was J. Eldon Fields, professor of political science who reminisced about Miss Neuenschwander, the person and the teacher, and J. Neale Carman, professor of French, who recalled the life story of Miss Neuenschwander.
After becoming an American citizen in 1892, Miss Neuenschwander entered KU in 1895 and was graduated in 1898. She studied further in Paris and at Yale, completing her doctorate in philosophy at Yale in 1913.
Miss Neuenschwander returned to KU as a professor in the romance languages and later acted as associate dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.
Her love of profession and unending desire to help others is exemplified in the continuing loan fund and two scholarships she established.

Not that you'd want to. Sometimes it just happens...like after a picnic, or when you bring home a couple of cold 6-paks and forget to put 'em in the refrigerator. Does rechilling goof up the taste or flatten the flavor?
Does it hurt to chill beer twice?
Relax. You don't have to worry.
A really good beer like Budweiser is just
Yes?
as good when you chill it
as good when you chill it twice. We're mighty glad about that. We'd hate to think of all our effort going down the drain
just because the temperature has its ups and downs.
You can understand why when you consider all the extra trouble and extra expense that go into brewing Bud $ ^{\circ} $ . For instance, Budweiser is the only beer in America that's Beech-
wood Aged.
So...it's absolutely okay to chill beer twice.
No? Enough said. (Of course, we have a lot more to say
about Budweiser. But we'll keep it on ice for now.)
Budweiser. is the King of Beers.
(But you know that.)
