Forty of the Stratofortresses unleashed 1,000 tons of bombs on coastal supply routes south of Vinh leading both to the demili tarized zone and the Laos border. Vinh is 170 miles north of the DMZ. The United States, how ever, maintained its halt in air and naval attacks above the 20th parallel, which is 80 miles south of Hanoi.

Publisher prices subject to change.) peace settlement worked out earlier this month in Paris be tween U.S. and North Vietnamese negotiators. The agreement, when signed, would mean a cease-fire in Viet nam, an end to all air and naval operations against North Viet nam, withdrawal of all American forces from Vietnam, and the re lease of more than 500 U.S. air men held prisoner by Hanoi. In a commentary, Saigon’s offi cial television network said South Vietnam had been urging the United States against hasty ac tion in concluding a peace agree ment. It noted that President Nixon had been advocating “peace with honor and this we shall have.” Radio Hanoi assailed the Nixon administration for not signing the agreement Tuesday, as originally scheduled by both sides. It ac cused Washington of taking a “tricky attitude in not respecting what it had agreed upon, not only evading the signing of the agree ment but also seeking to change the agreement which had been reached.” Ambassador Pham Dang Lam, head of the South Vietnamese delegation to the peace talks, told Japanese officials in Tokyo some details remain to be ironed out before signing of a cease-fire accord. He mentioned his gov ernments’ desire for further clari fication of the matter of with drawal of North Vietnamese troops from South Vietnam. It is known that both the United States and North Viet nam are trying to build up as much war stockpiles as they can before a cease-fire. While North Vietnam is trying to push war materiels southward down the Ho Chi Minh trail in Laos and across the DMZ, the United States has launched a crash program to supply South Vietnam with all the military equipment it can before the peace agreement places a limitation on American military aid. Good news Grank Funk fans, Funk’s new album, “Phoenix,” is plumb full of the same musical characteristics GFR has always been known for. Not only is “Phoenix” loud and energetic, but it’s also dull and repetitious. An added bonus is the most shallow, pointless lyrics since “Closer to Home.” Vet Med Dean To Resign, Become Full-Time Prof The music world had feared that the abrupt departure of the superpromoter-organizer Terry Knight might affect GFR’s music. “Phoenix” answers this with a resounding “NO!” We are so good we can play bad without anyone even showing us how!” Grand Funk Railroad was born May 1, 1969, when T. Knight signed a recording agreement with Mark Farner, Donald Brew er and Melvin Schacher, all of Flint, Michigan. Knight was a struggling one man rock show at the time and the other guys were members of The Pack, a rock band formerly known as Terry Knight and The Pack. But the past was forgotten, and this time Knight would only manage leav ing the performing to Mark, Don and Mel. The combination worked. of Terry Knight. But you’d new know it except for the incredt dumb-looking album cover, del nitely not Terry’s style. I don] want to give the impression tk “Phoenix” is a bad album, becatist it isn’t. But “Phoenix” reminii me of a good album about »i much as Col. Adams reminds m of Alice Cooper. One cut off of it, “I JustGotu Know,” is a real foot stomps, The trouble is my foot keen stomping the record instead oftk floor. Another cut, “She’s Gotti Move Me” is about how one of tie members of GFR fell in lovewit! a 14-year-old girl before how old she was. After findiii out her real age, he sensibly si mitted to himself that she w much too mature for him, and* began looking for someone moii his own speed. If I had picked “Phoenix" q in a $1.98 grab pile at Gibsoni it would have satisfied me. when I think that the samegm; that put out “Phoenix” has seva gold records and the largest ott door billboard in the world, I jus feel like stomping my foot.

Price, dean of A&M’s College of Veterinary Medicine, has announced plans to return to full-time teaching but will con tinue in the deanship until his successor has been named. President Jack K. Williams said he accepted Dr. Price’s re quest for reassignment with “re luctance and misgiving.” Dr. Williams also said he had asked Dean Price to work closely Dr. A. A. Price may have Okay, Mr. Nixon... You stopped the War just before the election... Nixon’s trying to make the same deal on Viet Nam he could have made four years ago. But even the pressure of the election can’t make Mr. Nixon solve the big problems he and the Repub licans have given us. INFLATION A cost of living increase of 17.6 percent.... Food prices so high that even families with a good income find it difficult to get by. What about II I I J ) Inflation, _ and UNEMPLOYMENT When Nixon took office, there were 3 million people looking for work. Today, there are over 5 million unemployed. And welfare rolls have doubled. CORRUPTION Your tax dollars are being used to pass special favors around like never before in history. A Wheat Deal with Russia; bailing out Lockheed;letting ITT off the hook; pushing milk prices up. Mean while, over $10 million in secret contributions finds its way to Nixon’s campaign pockets. Crooks, spies and burglars hired to disrupt the Democratic campaign have been traced to the White House itself. No wonder we have lost confidence in our government. We have an alternative to this kind of government. Stop listening to all the nonsense the Republicans are putting out, trying to scare you away from the Democratic Party. They try it every election. George McGovern will slow down inflation. He’ll bring unemployment to an end. And he’ll stop the corruption in Washington. Even the Republicans admit that George McGovern is a man of the highest honesty and integrity. We need that kind of man in the White House.

Cal houn Jr., vice president for aca demic affairs, on the matter of a replacement. The TAMU president noted the College of Veterinary Medicine has “reached preeminence in the nation” during the 15 years Dr. Price has served as its dean. “I am proud of the progress of the College of Veterinary Med icine and believe its challenge and opportunity in service to the people of Texas are even greater in the years ahead,” Dr. Price observed. The dean said his request to return to the classroom was made after “careful deliberation over an extended period of time.” “The position of dean has been a pleasant and constructive chal lenge to me,” Dr. Price added, “and I am grateful for the sup port and encouragement which has been given me by more peo ple than I can ever thank.” In conjunction with his dean- ship, Dr. Price is professor of veterinary medicine and sur gery. He joined TAMU as an in structor in 1949, the same year he earned his D.V.M. degree here. He also holds a B.S. degree in dairy husbandry and M.S. in veterinary physiology, both awarded by TAMU. Dean Price is a past president of the American Association of Veterinary Medical Colleges. In a breathtaking climb to star dom and the 70 per cent tax bracket, GFR amassed seven gold records and in the summer of ’71 filled Shea Stadium for the first rock concert held there since the Beatties in 1965. he Texas Thanks to Budget Records it at j on jj e Northgate for supplying “PW Gales To Report On ArgentinaTri] It least we think they did those things, as Terry Knight was also in charge of their press releases. But it doesn’t really matter how much money Grand Funk made since now Knight is suing Mark, Don and Mel for $15 million and they are also suing him for $8 million. So they could all be broke when it’s all over, since not even Knight claims GFR made over about $5 million in the short three years of their existence. Their surprising success is slightly enigmaish. From their first show at the Atlanta Pop Festival on July 4, 1969, to last weekend in Houston, music critics all over the country have called Grand Funk Railroad worthless. Not only did this fail to bother GFR, but they gloated over the criticism, as shown by the cover slips in their recent double-record collection of their greatest hits.
