Mrs. J. Frank Dobie recalled interests and the friendship of her late husband and Dykes, a 1921 A&M graduate who made the presentation with his daugh ter. Dudley R. Dobie, San Marcos book dealer and cousin of the renowned Southwestern folklorist and author, commented on the Dobie collection. It is one of three major collections now held by Texas colleges and universi ties. It consists of 600 items, many personally inscribed by Dobie with comments about peo ple and books. Dudley Dobie called it a unique collection because of the unique background between the author and collector. ♦ “It is not complete,” Dykes said, “but I doubt there will ever be a complete Dobie collection. I pledge to keep working at the job as long as I live, and I hope my daughter will take up the work after I’m gone.” A&M Board of Directors reso lutions expressing gratitude for the collection were presented to Dykes and Mrs. Goldsmith. Dykes also presented the first copy of his new book, “My Dobie Collection,” to President Wil liams. Copyrights and all royal ties of the book published by the A&M Press will go to the Friends of the Library, organized follow ing the Dobie collection presen tation ceremony. Sterling C. Evans, former A&M board president and class mate of Dykes, was elected char ter chairman. Louis Hartung of San Antonio was elected vice- chairman. Among more than 100 persons attending the ceremony were Ralph W. Yarborough, Texas book dealers and collectors, news men and A&M faculty members. Reporter says U. S. pilots killed S. Vietnamese civilians NEW YORK (A*) — The re porter who broke the story of the My Lai massacre says four U.S. Army helicopter pilots killed 10 South Vietnamese ci vilians in 1969 when they vio lated their division’s rules of engagement and that they were never court-martialed.

BEER ON TAP 20c Monday - Friday — 4:30 p. m. - 6 p. m. 317 University Dr. North Gate Writing in the Oct. 9 issue of New Yorker magazine, Seymour M. Hersh recounted an incident which he said involved heli copters shooting up a “no-fire” zone. According to Hersh, the rules of the Americal Division pro vided that aircraft fired on from such friendly populated areas could fire back only when the source of fire could be identified, the return fire could be surely aimed and the intensity of the shooting required a response. Four helicopters on a recon naissance mission were passing over the hamlets of Phu Vinh and Diem Pho in 1969 when a lieutenant thought he saw civil ians fleeing, Hersh said. Another pilot reportedly said he had heard about 50 rounds of rifle fire directed at his craft, although he did not actually see any weapons fired. The lieutenant requested and received permission from a duty officer to open fire, Hersh re ported, the result being that 2,000 rounds of .30-caliber machine- gun fire and 74 rockets were poured on various targets. Ten civilians were killed and 15 wounded. After complaints from Viet namese officials, Hersh reported, Gen. Lloyd B. Ramsey, then Americal Division commander, ordered an investigation which resulted in letters of reprimand for the pilots. Hersh, who won a Pulitzer Prize for the My Lai disclosures, contended that Ramsey should have investigated the incident to determine if a war crime had been committed, in compliance with a directive from the U.S. Military Assistance Command. Eskimos challenge ownership of oil fields WASHINGTON <A>> — Alaskan Eskimos have filed suit challeng ing state ownership of the oil- rich North Slope and seeking to invalidate Alaska’s $912-million sale of North Slope oil leases. The Arctic Slope Native Asso ciation filed the suit in U.S. Dis trict Court here Tuesday against Secretary of the Interior Rogers, C. B. Morton and other officials of the Interior Department. The suit charges that the state government’s selection of North Slope lands in 1964 under the Alaska Statehood Act violated Cadets answer call for blood A critical Tuesday call for blood donors at St. Joseph’s Hos pital in Bryan was answered by the Corps of Cadets at A&M.

The Interior secretary’s ap proval of the selection violated the constitutional requirement of due process of law, the Eskimos charged. “Finally,” their suit said, “all leases, sales, conditional leases and conditional sales made under the authority of such tentative approvals are invalid and in vio lation of Section 6 of the Alaska Statehood Act for the land leased or sold was not ‘vacant, unap propriated, or unreserved’ as re quired by that section.” “For as far back as anyone knows, the plaintiff Eskimo peo ple have occupied, used and exer cised dominion over the entire Arctic Slope region of Alaska,” the suit claimed, adding that “at the very least, the plaintiffs have what is known as aboriginal title . . .” The effort of seven oil compa nies to build an 800-mile pipeline from the North Slope oil fields to a seaport on Alaska’s southern coast has been stalled for more than a year by a lawsuit filed by conservationists. The Eskimos’ suit makes no mention of that $2.5-billion proj ect but could cast doubt not only on the pipeline but on the owner ship of the entire 56.5 million acres of land north of the Brooks Range of mountains and all the North Slope oil.
