Supreme Court fails
to act on question of
wiretap authorization
Protest
cows go
to Ford
By the Associated Press
While farmers in Wisconsin
were killing calves Tuesday to
protest livestock prices, Ok
lahoma stockmen were launch
ing new strategies of gifts, not
guns, to dramatize their money
plight.
In eastern Oklahoma, cat
tlemen were starting to gather
cattle to be shipped to
Washington and trucked to the
White House for presentation
to Betty Ford.
The First Lady raised the ire
of some of the livestock indus
try recently when she extoled
the economies of serving cas
seroles instead of red meat.
In Oklahoma City, top ag
ricultural executives staged a
T-bone lunch for reporters to
unveil a less frivolous effort, a
new “Give Meat for the Holi
days” promotion.
Behind the high-rise Ok
lahoma Farm Bureau office
building, a temporary pen held
three beef steers as visual aids
behind Calumet rancher
Henry Haley as he lectured on
the inflation woes of the meat
producers.
The “give meat” gift certifi
cate promotion is a joint ven
ture by the Farm Bureau,
Farmers Union, Cattleman’s
Association, Association of
Electric Co-operatives and the
Oklahoma Retail Grocers As
sociation.
“Every livestock producer is
familiar with the current mar
ket situation, and this gives
every farmer or rancher an op
portunity to do something posi
tive about it,” said George
Stone, Farmers’ Union presi
dent.

‘Shack
gets new
quack 5
There’s a new “quack at the
shack ”. Doctor John M. Moore be
came the newest of three staff
physicians this September.
Moore’s wife calls him “the super
Aggie quack for the super quack
shack. He is a native of Dallas.
Starting his career as a pre-med
major at A&M in 1941, he received
his M. D. degree from Baylor Uni
versity at Houston in 1949.
Moore has been awarded Charter
Diplomate of the American Board of
Family Practice and is a Charter
Fellow of the American Academy of
Family Practice.
Moore served his internship at
Jefferson Davis Hospital in Houston
from 1949 to 1950. His first private
practice was done in Brazoria
County where he also served on the
Dow Hospital staff. From the time
he finished there until this year he
was a member of the Memorial
Hospital circuit in Houston at the S.
E. and N. W. units.
Dr. Moore practices on the staff
with two other resident physicians.
Dr. Charles Behrens, also from
Houston, came to A&M in March,
1974, and Dr. Claude Goswick is
the directing physician. In the past,
Moore has also worked with Dr. A.
P. Beutel to whom the new campus
hospital is dedicated.
WASHINGTON (AP)—The Sup
reme Court declined to rule Tues
day on whether federal agents need
authorization from a judge to use
wiretaps in their efforts to detect
spying by foreign powers.
The court’s surprise decision let
stand the conviction of Igor A.
Ivanov, found guilty 10 years ago of
spying for the Soviet Union.
It had been widely assumed the
court would review the case, be
cause attorneys for both Ivanov and
the Justice Department has asked it
to.
Three justices—William O.
Douglas, William J. Brennan Jr.,
and Potter Stewart—favored hear
ing the appeal.
The court does not hear a case,
however, unless four justices want
to.
Justice Thurgood Marshall, who
frequently sides with Douglas and
Brennan, did not take part in the
decision.
Marshall was solicitor general
when the Ivanov case was appealed
to the Supreme Court the first time,
in 1969. At that time, the court sent
the case back to a lower court to
determine whether there had been
illegal wiretaps.
The Ivanov decision came as the
court screened nearly 1,000 cases
which piled up during the summer
recess, accepting 25 for full-scale
review including a hearing.
Cases it agreed to consider in
volve:
—Whether states may deny wel
fare benefits for unborn children, as
35 states do, under federal regula
tions which make it optional.
—The constitutionality ofa Penn
sylvania law providing state-
financed tutoring, textbooks and
equipment for pupils in private
schools.
—Whether a Social Security law
providing death benefits to widows
but not to widowers is unconstitu
tionally discriminatory.
—Whether returning veterans
are entitled to have their military
service counted in computing vaca
tions from their civilian jobs.
In other actions, the court upheld
the constitutionality of the trans-
Alaska pipeline act and agreed to
review a lower court order i ^
ing the builders of the line,
Pipeline Service Co., top
a lawsuit which delayed its (
struction.
The court agreed to review ai
cision curbing the power of
sional committees to obtain M
mation about controversial ori
zations. That stemmed from a
peals court ruling barring the l
nate Internal Security Commits
from subpoenaing bank records;
the United Servicemen’s Fund
The court also agreed tot
whether taxpayers may, insoi
stances, sue the Internal Revem
Serv ice to block collection of ta e
