WASHINGTON — Dwight
Eisenhower s image on the dollar
coin is being replaced by that of a
woman.
President Carter Tuesday signed
a bill authorizing the likeness of suf
fragette Susan B. Anthony on one
side of the new dollar coin, and the
Aoollo moon landing on the other.
The new coin will replace the
heavier Eisenhower dollar now in
circulation.
“I am particularly pleased that the
new dollar coin will — for the first
time in history — bear the image of
a great American woman,” Carter
said. “The life of Susan B. Anthony
exemplifies the ideals for which our
country stands.
“The ‘Anthony dollar' will sym
bolize for all American women the
achievement of their unalienable
right to vote,” he added. “It will be
a constant reminder of the continu
ing struggle for the equality of all
Americans.”
WOMEN OF AMERICA,
WE’VE GOT THE
BASS SHOE THAT’S
RIGHT FOR YOU.

press
United Press International
WASHINGTON — The upcoming talks on a separate Egyptian-
Israeli peace treaty and Israeli withdrawals from the Sinai will be
conducted behind a Camp David-style news blackout.
After a meeting between President Carter and Israeli Foreign
Minister Moshe Dayan Tuesday, White House spokesman Jody Pow
ell said there was agreement, “on their mutual desire not to attempt
to resolve any differences publicly. ”
Carter was expected to have a similar meeting Wednesday with the
Egyptian delegation to the conference.
The talks will take place in Blair House, across Pennsylvania Av
enue from the White House, beginning today.
The conference, expected to last two to three weeks, will be closed
to press coverage. There will be one daily press briefing at the State
Department.
Although officials have been open about the discussions since the
end of the Camp David conference, the 13-day summit was con
ducted in total isolation, with only brief and unrevealing descriptions
supplied by the American spokesman on a daily basis.
Carter told a news conference Tuesday the talks will link the Sinai
agreement with discussions on the wider subject of a settlement for
the West Bank and Gaza.
Although they are not legally inter-connected, there was a clear
understanding in the minds of myself. President Sadat and Prime
Minister Begin that the issues were inter-related,” Carter said.
Carters careful phrasing put him in the middle of an apparent
Israeli-Egyptian difference of view.
The Egyptians consider the more complex West Bank issue to be
vitally linked with a separate Egyptian-Israeli peace; the Israelis con
sider the two frameworks achieved at Camp David to be indepen
dent.
names, turned, smiled and seated
themselves to wait anxiously for the
decision. Only girls from Texas
A&M University were interviewed.
Thirty-eight girls were selected to
participate in the show.
Tina Parsons, fashion director for
the new group, said they tried to
select a representative group of col
lege girls.
The girls, who will be modeling
spring fashions from Sakowitz of
Houston, will be required to attend
a workshop being presented by
Barry Horn of Ben Shaw Modeling
Agency. They will go to Houston in
February for fitting. Parsons added
that the group is going to try to hold
an exercise class every week in
preparation for the show.
Debbie Astelford, an agriculture
education major from Plano, said
she came to the interviews because
whe always wanted to be a model. “I
like clothes and fashion,” she said.
“This is a great opportunity.”
“Girls, Girls, Girls” will try to
have a show once each month
featuring clothing from local shops.
Parsons said.
About three years ago,
Neiman-Marcus sponsored fashion
shows for modeling group called
“Mamselles” which featured girls
from several Texas universities, in
cluding some from Texas A&M.
