Page 4 THE BATTALION College Station, Texas Friday, October 2, 1970 Troops may be out next summer b y WASHINGTON <A>> _ Senate Republican Leader Hugh Scott said Wednesday the last U. S. combat troops “will be coming out of Vietnam” by next summer. The Pennsylvanian made the comment to newsmen at the start of Wednesday’s Senate session when asked to amplify remarks made Tuesday to newsmen in Washington and in a political speech in Harrisburg, Pa. On both occasions he predicted President Nixon would have a favorable report to the nation in mid-October on the Vietnam sit uation and probably would an nounce an accelerated troop with drawal schedule. Nixon already has said that another 150,000 troops would be withdrawn by next April, putting the figure remaining there at about 280,000 if the schedule is met. Administration officials also have stated repeatedly over the past months that the U. S. “com bat role” would be ended by next summer. Scott said “something more than 200,000” U. S. troops proba bly would remain in Vietnam for some time to come. When pressed for a definition of “combat” troops, however, Scott said he could not speak with any athority. He did say that air strikes by U. S. planes probably would con tinue as long as U. S. troops were in Vietnam and needed to be protected. Scott did not say whether he would favor turning over to the South Vietnamese soldiers the job of guarding American non-combat support troops. Administration officials have said that even when the “combat role” of U. S. forces ends, security forces probably will be needed as long as American troops remain in substantial numbers. Die be l to assist United Drive here R. Clark Diebel has been named associate director for Texas A&M’s “United Drive,” announced Dean of Science J. M. Prescott, campaign director. Dean Prescott said Diebel, the university’s controller, will be in charge of the financial aspects of the campaign to support Col lege Station’s United Chest and Bryan’s United Fund. The one-week “United Drive” opens Monday, coinciding with the start of campaigns in the two communities. Texas A&M’s new policy, Dean Prescott noted, allows university personnel to contribute to either the Bryan drive. or College Station Contributions not designated for either fund, he added, will be divided between the campaigns in proportion to their budgets. Astros fininsh up HOUSTON <A») _ Pinch-hitter Bob Watson poked a run-scoring single in the ninth inning Thurs day night to give the Houston Astros a 5-4 victory over San Francisco and extend their season-closing win streak to seven games. 27 engineers to help freshmen with projects A&M’s visiting engineer pro gram will bring 27 professionals from 20 Texas industries to the campus October 5-9 to consult with 930 freshmen students in Engineering Design Graphics, Dr. James H. Earle, department head, announced. Student teams are working on a campus car service center, a franchise study, manufacture of an educational toy, a children’s entertainment center, or a prob lem of their own choosing, Earle said. Presentations of solutions will be made when the visiting engineers return in December. Earle said the program serves to motivate new engineer stu dents by bringing them in con tact with practicing members of the profession. A total of 291 engineers have participated since 1966. ★ ★ ★ State Department tests given in December United States Department and Information Agency competitive written examinations will be giv en at A&M Dec. 5, announced Dr. J. M. Nance, campus advisor on State Department matters. The History Department head said persons interested in career appointments as foreign service officers or foreign service infor mation officers must take the exam. Applications must be made on State Department Form DSP-24 and postmarked no later than Oct. 23.

Mostyn of Waco have been awarded Texas Power and Light scholarships for their electrical engineering stud ies at A&M. Awards were presented to the students Tuesday by Pitt Pitt man, TP&L engineer of Dallas who studied under one of the scholarships at the university. Bill Ranton, TP&L employe re lations assistant manager, was also present for the awards. Pitt man received his B.S. at A&M in 1966 and afterwards earned a master’s degree in electrical en gineering. Zemanek and Shankle received $600 a year TP&L scholarships. Mostyn was presented a special one-time $120 award. Twin 200 races will not be held DETROIT (A*) — The inaugural Texas “Twin 200-S” United States Auto Club Indy championship car and stock car race, scheduled for Oct. 25 at Texas International Speedway near Bryan has been cancelled, the speedway’s direc tors announced today. Les Richter, president of Amer ican Raceways, Inc., under whose management Texas International Speedway operates, said the race was cancelled because of a major shift in the management and the realignment of operations. Ben Parks and Les Richter, recently appointed chairman of the board and president of Amer ican Raceways, respectively, and Lybrand, Ross Brothers and Montgomery, a nationally recog nized auditing firm, are still formulating plans for carrying forward a concept to present auto racing at the track. William J. Smyth, executive director of the U.S. Auto Club, expressed disappointment that the time factor involved in a com plete management change-over would not permit the Texans to see A. J. Foyt, Johnny Ruther ford, Jim McElreath, Lloyd Ruby and other Texas drivers compet ing for the first time with their Indy cars in their home state this year. Campus unrest report supported despite Agnew By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Three prominent Republicans backed up the report of the President’s commission on cam pus unrest Wednesday and dis agreed with the interpretation placed on it by Vice President Spiro T. Agnew. And the commission’s young est member, Joseph Rhodes Jr., a 22-year-old Harvard University fellow who has been embroiled in controversy with the vice pres ident since shortly after being named to the commission, said it was regrettable that Agnew had attacked the report while the President was still out of the country. The Republicans were White House counselor Robert Finch, and New York’s Sen. Charles E. Goodell and Mayor John V. Lindsay. Finch, appearing at St. Mar tin’s College in Lacey, Wash., disagreed with Agnew’s criticism that the report was imprecise.

I would hope a lot of people would not prejudge this report, but will wait and see what the commission has to say about Kent State and Jackson State.” The commission’s conclusions about the killing of students dur ing disturbances at the two in stitutions are due to be released this week. Finch said they would include “some very specific recommendations with regard to interrelations between the com munity and the school.” Goodell said Agnew “has long been saying that it is the duty of men in public office to speak out against violence in our uni versities . . . that is precisely what this report does—only the report, unlike the vice president, speaks in balanced and moderate language.” New York’s Mayor Lindsay said, “It is not required that we agree with every word in the report. But its call for balanced action from all sectors of society is sound. “That it makes us all responsi ble for the future is sound. To deny this, as the vice president and a number of congressmen have done, is a dismaying dis service to this community and every community where citizens seek to ease tensions and reduce the potential for strife among us.” Latest peace plan has ‘nothing new’ Season starts resort. One -yan-Uoliege Station. Dogs and (able. For information call 846- rite Box 6358, College Station, 17t4 PARIS <-#») — The United States said today that a careful review of the Viet Cong’s latest eight- point plan for peace has turned up nothing that could advance a negotiated settlement of the Viet nam war. South Vietnam also told the 86th session of the Paris peace talks that it has tried in vain to discover something new in the plan, presented Sept. 17 by Mrs. Nguyen Thi Binh, the Viet Cong’s top delegate. South Vietnamese Ambassador Pham Dan Lam is sued an urgent reminder that his country is very much a part of the war and insists on a major voice in any peace settlement. U.S. Ambassador David K. E. Bruce told the conference that “I have seen nothing which leads me to revise my opinion that your fundamental demands seem unchanged.” These demands—uni lateral U.S. withdrawal and a new Saigon government—have already been rejected by the United States. Bruce said the demand for the removal of Saigon’s president, vice president and premier re mains unacceptable.” He implied that to make such a demand was a “breach of our agreement” to begin plenary talks. Bruce and Lam expressed their positions as speculation mounted that secret talks be tween North Vietnam and the United States had begun on the basis of Mrs. Binh’s self-styled “peace initiative.” Bruce and his deputy, Philir) C. Habib, must report to Presi dent Nixon in Ireland this week end on the status of the talks. Last weekend Nixon sent his principal counselor, Henry A. Kissinger, to Paris to confer with the delegation. Bruce said when he took over the U.S. delegation recently that he had been given broad lati tude by Nixon to seek a settle ment but could only exercise the latitude when the other side showed some flexibility. Mrs. Binh’s proposals have drawn U.S. interest and could be the signal of this long-sought flexibility. U.S. delegation sources, however, were extremely reluctant to expound on this pos sibility. Mrs. Binh, told the conference today that she considered the U.S. answer to her plan a “nega- ative” response. The United States, she said, has turned down the date she had set for the total withdrawal of U.S. troops and has thus exposed more clearly “its scheme of prolonging its war of aggression.” Ride ’ii Shoot to be held for local youth A “Ride ’N Shoot” will be con ducted for children on October 4 and 11 from 2-6 p.m. at Pleasant Acres.
