Batt News Summary Marines Recruit On Campus WASHINGTON — A complaint from a 12-year-old schoolboy about a four-cent price increase on paint for his model airplanes resulted Tuesday in a $150,000 suit by the Justice Department against a hobby products manu facturer. Filing of the action against Testor Corp. of Rockford, Ill., in U.S. District Court in Chicago was announced by the Cost of Living Council. SAIGON — A mistaken U.S. bombing just south of Da Nang took a heavy toll of Vietnamese civilian casualties Tuesday and wrecked a hamlet, the U.S. Com mand reported. The Saigon command said the casualty toll rose to 21 civilians killed. More than a score of ci vilians were wounded. The U.S. Command said 29, the Saigon command 23. CINCINNATI, Ohio — In an unprecedented move, the Ameri can Medical Association voted Tuesday to take strong action against a “significant problem” of narcotic-dependence, alcohol ism and psychiatric disorders among America’s practicing phy sicians. The recommendations approved Tuesday could ultimately lead to loss of licenses to practice by such doctors. But the AMA stressed that any disciplinary or other action would be in the “compassionate” interest of the doctors themselves, as well as protecting the public and the “reputation of the medical pro fession” as a whole. WASHINGTON — Canada will hold up its decision on joining a Vietnam cease-fire supervisory commission until it learns the results of an international con ference that won’t convene for 30 days after the fighting stops, a diplomatic source said Tuesday. The Canadian position could put a crimp in U.S. planning since presidential adviser Henry A. Kissinger wants a supervisory apparatus in place when a cease fire goes into effect. WASHINGTON — Mexican Army Gen. Humberto Mariles Cortes and six others have been arrested in France in connection with the seizure of 132 pounds of heroin, the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs announced Tuesday.

It was commissioned by the Muhammad Ali Fan Club, which sprang into action when Ali was stripped of his world heavyweight title in 1968. Hitler Deputy Said To Be Alive In S. America LONDON <A>>—Hitler deputy Martin Bormann posed as a Roman Catholic priest in Bolivia during the late 1950s before using millions in smuggled Nazi loot to build a vast business em pire, the Daily Express said Wednesday. The article is one of a copy righted series that claims Bor mann, Hitler’s right-hand man during World War II, escaped Berlin after Hitler’s death and paid Argentina dictator Juan D. Peron $200 million for refuge. Bormann would now be 72. The series was written by American spy expert Ladislas Farago in collaboration with Stewart Steven, formerly the newspaper’s foreign editor. It is distributed in the United States by the Chicago Tribune-New York Daily News syndicate. Farago said Bormann left Ar gentina for Brazil when Peron was ousted from power in 1955, and later went to Bolivia. He dropped the identify of Eliezer Goldstein, under which he had entered Argentina, the article added, and picked the name Augustin von der Lange Lerrbach —adapted from a character in a ribald Goethe play. Wednesday’s installment re ported that while in Bolivia Bor mann participated in Catholic services, including weddings, bap tisms and funerals. It said he left Bolivia after the 1960 capture of Adolf Eichmann and went by way of Peru to Chile, where he bought a farm close to the Argentine border. At that point, the article said, Bormann began to build his busi ness empire based on funds and treasure smuggled out of Ger many in the last stages of the war. His interests, the paper said, include a monopoly of the timber market in northern Ar gentina and southern Paraguay. A Marine Corps officer selec tion team is on campus this week to explain the Corps’ Platoon Leaders Class (PLC) and Officer Candidate Course (OCC) com missioning programs and admin ister tests to interested students.

Captain Lucas also will meet with the Texas A&M chapter of the Semper Fidelis Society at 7:30 tonight in Room 210 of the Physics Building. THE BATTALION College Station, Texas Wednesday, November 29,1972 The Beachboys started out as a family act in 1961. Dennis, Brian and Carl Wilson, their cousin Mike Love and neighbor A1 Jar- dine, managed by Mr. Wilson. Brian had three nervous break downs between ’63 and ’66. Studio guitarist Glen Campbell took his place in live performances. In 1965 they all studied at the Ma- harishi’s place in India. In 1967 a quiet young man who had 16 wives and an intense stare moved in with Dennis Wilson. His name was Charles Manson and he stay ed for seven months. By 1970 they weren’t the same Beachboys that had sung about the California girls with long blonde hair. Nearly 10 years had gone by and their music showed it. Their latest album is a double record deal, “So Tough” and a re-release of “Pet Sounds.” That’s right, the same “Pet Sounds” of 1966. Those two together in one cover make the best buy any where, and the top album of the 70s. Now that the influence of the old Beachboy music is a little dim, “Pet Sounds” is easier to accept on its own merits. It should be, since the amount of music crammed in it is unbelievable. It has been for six years, of course, only now the impact of non-Beachboy music by the Beachboys is gone. “Pet Sounds” is nice; nice thoughts, nice harmonies, nice sounds. Both sides slide by effort lessly. Their version of “Sloop John B.” is included as are Beach- boy originals “Caroline No” and “God Only Knows,” along with 11 others. “Wouldn’t It Be Nice” is perfect, the feeling it has in it couldn’t be done better. From 1966 to 1972 is what the change to “So Tough” represents. The harmonies are a little lower, though just as clear. The instru mentation is more complicated but still, characteristically, only backs up the vocals. “Marcella” is the only track released as a single but every other song on “So Tough” is just as good. “All This Is That” is so tough they should have named the album after it. Can you think of a song where five different voices are distinguishable, all singing the same word at the same time? “He Came Down” has it, a masterful production job. In one package, “So Tough” and “Pet Sounds” are unbeatable. If you’re not a Beachboy fan, good, since the ones we remem ber just aren’t. Their music shows it, and it’s a change for the better.
