WASHINGTON — The Supreme
Court, in a downpour of orders,
starting its new term, agreed
Monday to take up a potpourri of
cases involving everything from
child sterilization to lawyer solicita
tion and sex-segregated pension
plans.
The justices rejected appeals in
volving such sensitive minority is
sues as the firing of a homosexual
teacher, racial quotas ordered for
Chicago police promotions, and the
Kiwanis Club’s policy of excluding
women from membership.
In a piece of good news for civil
rights groups, however, they let
stand a controversial desegregation
plan for Wilmington, Del., that re
quires the merger of school districts
encompassing almost two-thirds of
the state’s students.
The court rejected Richard Ni
xon’s appeal of a judge’s ruling that
his White House tapes may be
screened for evidence in a civil
damage suit involving anti-war dem
onstrators arrested at the Capitol
in 1971.
But it appeared to put to an end
government efforts to prosecute
Frank DeMarco Jr., the lawyer who
prepared Nixon’s 1969 tax return,
on charges of conspiring to defraud
the United States.
The court agreed to hear argu
ments later this term on a ruling
that shook up the communications
industry by requiring newspapers to
give up ownership of broadcast sta
tions operating in the same market.
At stake are 60 newspaper-
television station cross-ownerships
and many more combinations in
volving radio stations.
The justices also agreed to decide
whether a judge who approved a
mother’s request to have her 15-
year-old girl sterilized can be sued
for damages by the daughter. The
7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals
ruled in an Indiana case that the an
swer is yes.
In addition, the justices offered to
rule this winter or next spring
whether an employer may require
women workers, who have a longer
average life span than men, to make
larger pension fund contributions.
They also accepted for review
cases involving:
—A judge’s ruling that police
armed with a warrant acted unlaw
fully when they searched offices of
the Stanford Daily in 1971 for
photos of demonstrators.
—Whether authorities must ob
tain a warrant before re-entering a
fire-damaged building to gather
evidence of arson.
—Whether the organized bar
may penalize a lawyer who recom
mends his own services to a pro
spective client.
—Challenges to a Maryland law
which bars oil companies from
operating their own retail service
stations and requires them to sell
gasoline to dealers at a uniform
price.
—Whether The Minnesota Pen
sion Act, designed to protect work
ers when a plant is closed or a pri
vate pension plan is terminated,
clashes with federal law.
The court upheld Tennessee’s col
lege student aid program, which
goes to applicants attending both
secular and church-related institu
tions.

ENGINEERING GRADUATES,
WORK IN A PLACE WORTH WRITING HOME ABOUT.
In Saudi Arabia you'll be near the cradle
of civilization.
You'll see awe-inspiring sights such
as the carved cliff tombs of Madain Salih,
created over 2,000 years ago some 600
kilometers north of Jiddah.
You'll have plenty of time to explore,
too, because you'll have a 40-day paid
vacation and 12 paid holidays each year.
You'll have money enough to travel in
style. Your base salary will be competitive
with what you can earn in the States. Plus,
you'll receive a generous tax-protected
expatriate premium.
That means your Saudi Arabian take-
home pay will be approximately equal to
your gross pay in the States.
In addition, you'll be close to the
world's top vacation spots.Travel through
out the Middle East. Or fly to Rome, Paris
and London. Or visit India to the east,
Africa to the west.
We'll even fly you back to the States,
free, while you're vacationing.
You'll be working for the world's larg
est oil producing company, and one of
the fastest growing. Currently, we have
over $20 billion worth of projects under
way in Saudi Arabia, and advancement
opportunities are exceptional.
We're looking for Mechanical,
Geological, Chemical, Electrical, and
Petroleum Engineers with bachelor's,
master's, or Ph.D. degrees. If you're
graduating this fall, spring, or sum
mer, we'dlike to talk to you.
Additional information is available
now in your career planning office.
