Cubans hijack another one
MIAMI (UPI) - Four Cubans hijacked a Newak-to-Miami jetliner with 93 persons aboard to Havana Monday, the 12th hijacking this year. A few hours later a young New York student and his girlfriend were bluffed out of hijacking another big New York-to-Miami jet.
The four Cubans were
identified from a passenger list as three members of the W Hernandez family, a man, wife and daughter about 16, and another man, J Babin.
The two men forced their way into the cockpit of Eastern Airlines flight 7 by holding stewardess Margaret Bolton, of Philadelphia, at the point of a seven-inch steak knife.
Sirhan will take stand
LOS ANGELES (UPI) -Sirhan B. Sirhan is scheduled to be sworn today as a witness at his trial for the murder of Sen. Robert F. Kennedy but his testimony will be limited to the state of his own finances.
Testimony of the defendant is part of the defense plan to try to prove that the grand jury that indicted Sirhan, 24, for murder did in fact discriminate against him because it included no person in his low economic bracket.
Delaving tactics
Chief defense counsel Grant Cooper announced in court last Thursday that the defendant and his mother, Mary, 56, would be called to testify when court reconvenes Tuesday.
Cooper has been accused of using delaying tactics in the trial but he points out an attorney must take every step possible to defend his client and says this is what he is doing.
The trial opened Jan. 7, seven months after the slaying of Sen. Kennedy at the Ambassador Hotel. It took three weeks of court sessions to get a jury of eight men and four women.
Then Cooper's motion to quash the indictments on grounds the grand jury did not represent a cross-section of the people had to be heard.
On Thursday Cooper asked for a recess until Tuesday so he and his aides could scrutinize answers to a questionnaire sent to more than 100 Los Angeles County Superior Court judges.
System is wrong
The judges each year select two nominees to the grand jury. Cooper claims that the selection system is wrong because low income or minority groups seldom, if ever, are represented on the jury.
During arguments over the motion last week, prosecutor Lynn Compton contended that the question of representation was irrelevant. He said on the evidence any grand jury would have indicted Sirhan. He pointed out that Cooper, in questioning prospective jurors, repeatedly stated the defense could concede that Sirhan fired the bullet that killed Sen. Kennedy.
Compton, however, was over-ruled by Superior Court Judge Herbert V. Walker.
If Walker should rule for the
defense and reject the indictment, the district attorney's office would merely file a new complaint against the defendant, ask for a preliminary hearing in Municipal Court and the whole process of trying Sirhan would begin anew.
New frosh find adjustment easy
Despite the newness of their living quarters and classmates, many of the new freshmen who entered KU this semester said they had no real difficulties in making adjustments to college life.
Some freshmen indicated they missed the orientation period, since it was the time to meet new people and to get acquainted with the campus, but a majority didn't feel that this was a disadvantage.
"I have found the adjustment relatively easy to make," Nancy Beaman, Kansas City, said. "I graduated from high school a semester early, but I would have been bored and unhappy if I had stayed there rather than coming to KU."
Cyuthia Freeman, Topeka, said she had few difficulties other than finding the right classrooms in the right buildings. She reported the rumors she had heard concerning the size of the classes and the impersonal feeling of a large university just weren't true.
"The only problem with entering KU at second semester was that many of the classes I wanted are offered only in the fall semester," Dave Allen, Topeka, said.
Most of the freshman said they appreciated the help with enrollment that the College-Within-a-College offered them because it allowed them to enroll in classes with people they knew.
HONG KONG (UPI) Blame it on the speedup of modern communications. This came out on the teleprinter of the Hong Kong government information services:
"A fire has just been reported (pause) . . . It involves some rubbish (pause) . . . It has just been put out."

easy atmosphere to apartment life." he said.
One of the apartment type features that has been instituted into the construction of the house is the Princeton style arrangement—a single study room connected by two adjacent sleeping rooms.
In keeping with the freedom of apartment living the Phi Gams are planning to have more open houses such as the university residence halls currently have. In addition, Nohe has introduced a by-law into the IFC which would permit the fraternities to have parties at which they could serve liquor.

The New York student charged with trying to hijack National Airlines flight 11 was identified as Michael A. Peparo, about 20, a student at Duchess Community College in Poughkeepsie, N. V.
The short, slender Peparo, whose black hair flowed to the shoulders, brandished a knife and an aerosol mosquito spray can he claimed was a bomb. There were 66 passengers and a crew of seven on the flight.
Peparo's home town was given by the BFL as Cold Spring. N. Y.
A stewardess on the National jet said the flight engineer pulled a pistol on the youth when his back was turned after the plane was on the ground. The youth had agreed to let the plane land to take on more fuel to get to Havana, and then had agreed to let the passengers get off.
Aboard the hijacked plane, an Eastern Air Lines jet, was television's "Candid Camera" producer Allen Funt. Two men and two women, all smartly dressed in long topcoats, were the first off of the Boeing 727 jet when it landed in Havana at 12:27 p.m. EST after the hijacking of Florida's east coast.
The four were taken into custody by Cuban security police. They were not further identified.
The house interior is still not finished and posed a problem when the Phi Gams first moved in. "Moving in was a problem because we didn't have any beds or study desks, but we were so happy at being in our new house that we gladly put up with it for a few days," said Nobe.
Members of Phi Gamma Delta, who moved into their new house last Tuesday, are once more a jubilant group. Scattered throughout apartment houses in Lawrence and in university residence halls since their old house was destroyed by fire a year and a half ago, the Phi Gams have been reunited.
Fiji's are home again
House president, Martin Nohe, said the primary problem was one of coordination and communication since the house was split up.
Apartment living did not entirely dampen house prestige, however. As Nohe wryly commented, "For one thing our grade point average actually improved from last year."
Despite the niceties of apartment living many were still glad to resume fraternity life. One was Jim Hoganson, Columbus, Neb., senior, who said,"apartment life is nice, but you just don't have the same feeling of friendship as when you live closely with 70 other guys."
Nohe himself felt apartment living was in some respects advantageous and for that reason plans to incorporate an apartment style of living into the house. "There is a more free and
The freshmen are probably the happiest group of all at the new move, never having lived in a fraternity house at all. Pledge class president Fritz Arko, Kansas City freshman said, "all of us lived on one wing of Oliver Hall so we were pretty unified, but we were really anxious to move into the house."

WHERE YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR CORPORATE ECONOMIC GROWTH
The most common measure of corporate economic growth is earnings. Though it is simple enough to set an objective of growth in earnings, achievement requires dedication, hard work, imagination and carefully thought-out plans.
Normally such growth stems from certain basic procedures: increased out-put of traditional product lines; research and development programs; diversification; or acquisition or merger. The larger the company, the more complex the pattern for growth becomes. In the case of Jersey Standard, our international scope adds to the complexity. Accordingly, earnings growth has resulted from a mix of the above basic procedures.
Under our decentralized system of management, procedures followed by affiliates world-wide in achieving earnings growth are tailored to fit local patterns. Affiliate management has latitude and authority to respond to local conditions and the head-quarters office provides regional coordination.
This system implements our objective of being a flexible, aggressive enterprise. It recognizes the importance of a proper blend of both short and long-term investments. It permits a balanced commitment of money and manpower.And it assures adaptation to the various social and political environments in which we operate.
Our plans for growth in earnings,however, are only as good as the people who develop and implement them. For Jersey Standard to grow,we must have personnel of the highest caliber—and a forward-looking aggressive, management team.
Isn't something like this really what you've been preparing for?
Make it a point to see the Jersey Standard representatives when they visit your campus—and talk over the various management opportunities in our world-wide family of companies.
Jersey representatives will be here on February 14
