Batt News Summary
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MEXICO CITY — Mexicans
are drinking less tequila, but for
eigners are drinking more, pro
ducers of the fiery liquor made
from the mezcal plant say.
From 1967 to 1971 exports
more than doubled, growing from
2.0 million liters to 4.2 million,
according to a report by the re
gional chamber of the Jalisco
state tequila industry. Jalisco is
the largest producer of tequila
because it has the perfect con
dition for the special kind of
plant found only in Mexico.
During the same five-year per
iod domestic consumption drop
ped from 21,000 liters to 19,000
liters, the report said.
“1 keep waking up believing that we’ve come from last
to second place in two weeks! Is it true?”
WASHINGTON — The Su
preme Court ruled 7 to 2 Mon
day that the Pentagon Papers
trial of Daniel Ellsberg and An
thony Russo could be resumed
without the government disclos
ing its wiretap logs to the de
fendants.
The ruling, which drew dis
sents from Justices William O.
Douglas and Jilliam J. Brennan
Jr., was in the form of a rou
tine order that turned aside Ells-
berg’s and Russo’s petition for
a hearing. The order contained
no comment on the questions
they had raised.
Moustache Case Is Won By
Black Mississippi Teachers
WASHINGTON, D. C. — A
moustache, sideburns, beard or
goatee, does not affect a teacher’s
performance of his job, a federal
court in Mississippi has ruled in
putting three men back on the
school payroll. In acting against
the black teachers, the Columbus
school board had applied student
personal appearance regulations.
Ezra Baker and Frank A.
Yates, whose contracts were not
renewed for this year, will be
reinstated with back pay for Sep
tember and October. James Con-
ard, who was given a contract
but was suspended, will be rein
stated with back pay.
U. S. District Court Judge Wil
liam C. Keady, in the Oct. 30 rul
ing, awarded $2,000 in attorriey
fees. The National Education As
sociation’s DuShane Emergency
Fund had provided support to the
Mississippi teachers in the form
of legal fees.
Judge Keady said: “We readily
recognize that the vogue of an
adult to wear a moustache, beard,
goatee or sideburns in a particu
lar style or length that he desires
is a personal choice which deter
mines one’s own appearance; and
the state sanction or regulation
which prescribes generally the
grooming habits of adults as a
condition of public employment,
unrelated to one’s ability to per
form his work, can only be viewed
with judicial scrutiny.” Such
regulations, he added, are “de
void of logic and rationality, and
plainly offend” constitutional
rights.
QUITO, Ecuador — The Ecua
dorian navy has opened the new
fishing season with the capture
of eight U. S. tuna boats within
this South American nation’s dis
puted 200-mile sea limit.
Officials said patrol boats ap
prehended the 830-ton Nautilus
and the Freedom on Sunday and
the 1,400-ton Denise Marie, the
Gemini and the Polaris on Mon
day. All were taken in the same
zone between 50 and 63 miles off
Punta de Santa Elena, they said.
The student code, which the
board applied to teachers, banned
beards and goatees, said mous
taches must not extend beyond
the mouth nor sideburns below
the earlobes, and restricted the
length of “afro” hair styles to
three inches. The teachers’ mous
taches reached about three-
fourths of an inch beyond their
mouths.
‘Orderly’ Society
The three teachers, \\'ho had
taught in the Columbus,.school
system six years, had worn their
moustaches several years. Each
man, on the witness stand, “ex
pressed feelings of chagrin, em
barrassment and humiliation in
making the required alteration to
their appearance a n d therefore
refused to conform to the spe
cific restrictions placed on boy
students by the code,” the court
noted. The new restrictions had
been explained at faculty meet
ings before the opening of this
school term.
(Continued from page 1)
that is livable,” said Ardrey. “The
thing that bothers me the most
about America is all the order;
the straight streets, the light-
posts at every corner, the build
ings going up, everything in
order!”
While believing that war is
“obsolete,” Ardrey said that “vio
lence is fun.” He added that
“The American army — I don’t
know if its worse than General
Motors Corp. or better—is one of
those enormous establishments
that devours individuals like
sardines.”
“In Ulster,” Ardrey said, “the
suicides and the mental cases
have all but vanished.” Ardrey
quickly added, T don’t think a
society should tolerate violence
and any society that does, will
only lead to more violence.”

SAN DIEGO, Calif. — The Na
vy dropped charges Monday
against a few of the 123 sailors
who refused to return to the
supercarrier Constellation after
voicing complaints of racial dis
crimination.
A Navy spokesman declined to
say how many of the dissident
seamen were cleared of charges
of being absent without leave but
said “There have been a few.”
“It was a combination of
things left up to the discretion
of the commanding officer who
reviewed each man’s records and
made up his own mind about
him,” the spokesman said.
cus Monday urged party Chair
man Jean Westwood to resign.
The decision came at a meet
ing of the executive committee
of the Democratic governors’ or
ganization and will be forwarded
to the meeting of all 31 Demo
cratic governors and governors-
elect when they meet in St. Louis
Dec. 3.

Democratic party needs a new

President Nixon’s landslide re-
election last week, the leaders of

CHICAGO — Pollster George
Gallup Jr. said Monday the land
slide victory scored by President
Nixon over Sen. George McGov
ern does not mean the President
enjoys widespread support.
Gallup, president and son of
the founder of the American In
stitute of Public Opinion, more
commonly known as the Gallup
Poll, said many of the votes cast
in the victory were reluctantly
give nto Nixon.
Deepwater Port Planned
(Continued from page 1)
the jobs of some 30,000 persons
now employed in the oil refinery
industry in Texas could be placed
in jeopardy. Without adequate
supplies of crude oil, refiners may
eventually be forced to move their
operations to other areas, either
inside or outside the United
States, where crude oil is avail
able,” foresees James R. Bradley,
IERD head.
“Our nation is rapidly running
out of energy sources. Gas and
oil are in short supply; we cannot
use much coal because of pollu
tion problems; and nuclear power
has been slow to develop,” Brad
ley continued. “With insufficient
supplies of energy, our economy
is affected, and our national de
fense readiness may be impaired.”
The study team found deep
water terminals an attractive
solution to the problem of receiv
ing crude oil carried in mammoth
tankers. Such terminals are less
costly than dredging existing
ports, and the environmental im
pact of an offshore terminal
appears to be less than that of
dredging. Other favorable char
acteristics of moored terminals
cited by the report are that they
can be used safely in bad weather,
and as ships get larger and re
quire deeper water, the terminals
can be relocated.
