A temporary home has been set up in the new Graphics Cen ter in the MSC, but the committee is still looking for a 10’ by 10’ area to serve as its permanent base of operations. The A&M Chess Committee de feated Texas, 3-1, in the radio chess matches. Under the radio system, it took 15 seconds for a move to be transferred from one board to the other. Four concurrent games were played in this first “Tourna ment of the Air.” President Nixon announced Thurs day he was withdrawing the nom ination of L. Patrick Gray III to be director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. He said he acted at Gray’s request. In a statement, Nixon said: “In fairness to Mr. Gray, and out of my overriding concern for the effective conduct of the vitally important business of the FBI, I have regretfully agreed to with draw Mr. Gray’s nomination.” , Nixon, who did not say who he would name to succeed Gray as head of the FBI, did declare that he has asked Gray to remain as acting director until a nominee is confirmed. The President said, after talk ing to Gray by telephone for five minutes, “it is obvious that Mr. Gray’s nomination will not be con firmed by the Senate.” To bolster this contention, action Thursday by the Senate Judiciary Committee which had been handling the matter. The committee earlier Thurs day agreed to a showdown vote next week on the nomination aft er Democrats moved to postpone action indefinitely. In his statement, Nixon describ ed Gray as “an able, honest and dedicated American” who had been do and suspicion” because he had cooperated with White House counsel John Dean III in making available FBI reports on the Wa tergate conspiracy. Nixon said Gray’s “compliance with this completely proper and necessary request” caused the in nuendo and suspicion “and there by seriously tarnished his fine record as acting director and FDA Considers Legal Action Against Tuna Fish Canners WASHINGTON <A>)_The Food and Drug Administration an nounced Thursday it is consider ing legal action against Star Kist Foods, the company which recalled two lots of tuna fish blamed for sickening 232 persons.

The agency said the charges it is considering against Star Kist are based on its inspections of Star Kist’s American Samoa plant since discovery of the decomposed fish. The FDA announcement did not specify what legal action the agency might take. The maximum fine it can levy is $1,000. Caesar Roy of FDA’s office of compliance had said earlier that the decomposed tuna, packed at the American Samoa plant Nov. 30 and Dec. 1 last year, could have been spotted by a trained inspector. “A layman could have missed it,” said Roy. “An individual well trained in organoleptic detection would not miss this decomposi tion.” Organoleptic inspection involves observing and smelling fish. “We have all kinds of quality control. How that occurred we don’t know,” said Thomas Vir gil, manager of marketing for Star Kist. Fish products, unlike red meat and poultry, are not processed under the constant supervision of government inspectors. The FDA inspects plants such as Star Kist’s periodically. Inspec tors were in the plant in January 1972, but the FDA declined to re lease their inspection report pend ing its possible legal action. In Washington, Gray had an nounced he had asked that his nomination be withdrawn shortly before Nixon made his formal an nouncement. Atty. Gen. Richard G. Klein- dienst said through a spokesman that he was deeply disappointed by what he called the turn of events. “He is one of the most loyal Americans I know,” said Klein- dienst. “He was an excellent choice to be permanent director and should have been confirmed.” The spokesman said Gray tele phoned Kleindienst and told him of his decision about an hour before he issued his statement. “I have asked the President to withdraw my nomination for the position of director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation,” Gray said in a brief statement. “The basis for this decision is my deep conviction that the FBI, a great and unique American in stitution of vital service to the President and the American peo ple, is entitled to permanent lead ership at the earliest possible time.” Gray’s statement was released by a FBI spokesman. Gray, who has headed the giant law-enforcement bureau since the death of J. Edgar Hoover last May, has become entangled in the controversy over the bugging of Democratic national headquarters in the Watergate office-apartment complex. Senators have criticized Gray for turning over FBI reports on the probe of the incident to Dean. Others have accused Gray of making speeches of a political nature during last fall’s election campaign. Gray denied this, say ing the speeches were in line with his job as temporary head of the FBI. Earlier Thursday, the Senate Judiciary Committee agreed to a showdown vote next week on Gray’s nomination. Sen. Robert C. Byrd, D-W.Va., forced the issue at a hastily called afternoon meeting by moving to postpone action indefinitely — a motion tantamount to killing it. A&M Has Answer To Sidewalk Cafe By ROBERT STACCHINI A&M’s answer to a French side walk cafe is now open for busi ness. The facility, called the MSC Parisian Cafe, officially opened Tuesday. Anita Davidson, acting manager of the MSC Food Serv ices, created the new facility. She thought A&M students needed a place that could offer both a fast meal and a cozy atmosphere. The whole idea started because of the pending renovation of the old MSC building. The snackbar at the east end closed down on Monday, and, rather than doing without such a facility, the MSC Food Services initiated a mini snackbar and named it the MSC Parisian Cafe. The cafe is in the center of the old building in what was once a lounge area. Davidson had 20 tables with bright red and white tablecloths moved into the area. With the help of Hugo Stein, maintenance foreman with TAMU Food Services, she designed a brightly colored booth. Later a red and black colored booth, where short order items will be prepar ed, was installed. “I think of it as a place where students can go for a short meal and not have to wait in a long line,” Davidson said. The facility looks like a typical sidewalk cafe where one can sit and observe others walking about while eating. “Right now the facility is some what limited to the number it can accommodate. But if business warrants, more tables will be put into service,” Davidson said. The cafe, staffed by four per sons including Joe Medina as chef and E. McCoy as supervisor, is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday. “Everybody should come to the cafe for it has a touch of the prices of the past,” said Col. Fred Dollar, A&M Food Services Di rector. Hamburgers sell for 49 cents. “We hope to keep it open until construction warrants that we close down,” Davidson said. In the meantime, Davidson is preparing to be assistant manag er at the new University Tower Club when it opens. “After we fi nally close down, we will evaluate the feasibility of having other cafes around the campus,” Da vidson said. way WU TFXAS * AUTO CLUB COLLEGE STATION, TEXAS "The World's Fastest Speedway lexaslwin200's Indy Championship Cars 200 Miles PLUS USAC Late Model Stock Cars 200 Miles BOTH EVENTS ON THE 2 MILE OVAL Saturday, April 7 1 pm TEXAS A&M SPECIAL Regular $6 Infield Tickets JUST $3 TO AGGIES Available ONLY AT MSC Ponderosa Specials • Friday Evening Fish Fry — $2.00 • Sunday Noon Lunch $2.00 • Special Weekend Rates for Parents & Students Call 846-5794 Ponderosa Motor Inn Watch & Jewelry Repair — Engraving Diamonds Set In Senior Rings Seiko & Bulova Watches Rings enlarged to show detail.
