John Dean, counsel to the president, told Liddy in the fall of 1971 to set up a first class intelligence operation to en sure Nixon’s re-election. While working in this operation, Lid dy submitted a plan to kill colunmist Jack Anderson, who had endangered the life of a U.S. intelligence source abroad by identifying him in publica tion. In May 1972, Liddy and partner E. Howard Hunt were sent by superiors into the Democratic party offices in the Watergate Hotel to plant listening de vices. A second break-in was ordered to gather a file of derogatory material on Republican party leaders. This time the break-iii was not suc cessful because Liddy’s electronic ex pert James McCord, chief of security for the Committee to Re-elect the Presi dent, and four Cuban Americans were arrested in the hotel. Liddy acquired the nickname of “the Sphinx” by not divulging any informa tion about himself or his work within the Nixon re-election committee. Tickets are available at the Rudder Box Office.

Gordon Liddy ft WA CS deal faces Capitol Hill tests ts er United Press International Washington — The Saudi AW ACS package, still in deep trouble P Capitol Hill, faces its first key con- giessional tests this week and the initial Mtlook is pot good for President Bagan’s $8.5 billion proposal. Pfhe House Foreign Affairs and the enate Foreign Relations committees ire planning to vote on resolutions of fcapproval Tuesday and Wednesday. A fejority in both panels is committed (gainst the sale. 11 Unless minds are changed between now and then, both panels are expected to recommend that the package be vetoed. But that will not keep it from consideration by the full houses. The deadline is Oct. 31. At least 23 of the 36 members of the House Foreign Affairs Committee are opposed to the Saudi package, whose most controversial features are 1,177 Sidewinder missiles and the five Air borne Warning and Control System air craft. At least 10 of the Senate panel’s 17 members also feel the same way. Nine of them — including two Republicans — are co-sponsoring a resolution of dis approval introduced in the Senate Thursday. APO auction today “ at Rudder Fountain it By FAR A ALEXANDER Battalion Reporter HGoing, going, gone. Another Aggie sold at the Aggie Auction. | Alpha Phi Omega, a national service fraternity, is scheduled to auction Texas jA&M students today from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Rudder Fountain. The indentured servant auction is a iund-raising project for the United Way campus drive, Chairman Jane Bishop i said. p Yell leaders, Student Government | members, Corps of Cadet officers and j other recognizable students will be au ctioned for prices starting at $3. Bishop said these individuals were chosen because the best way to raise | money is to auction people who are rec- Ognized, such as student leaders. I Once purchased, a servant must work one hour, performing tasks left up to the buyer s discretion, but nothing illegalor immoral can be requested, she said. A contract insuring the servant’s moral, legal, and physical protection must be signed as a safety precaution. I The servant may have to walk a mile. clean a house or do 50 push-ups in an hour of service. But if the service is not performed within two weeks, the ser vant is released from obligation, Bishop said. The chairman said the auction is a way to solicit contributions to the Un ited Way instead of taking money at collection tables. She said APO initially wanted to auc tion professors to promote a better stu dent-teacher relationship but that the organization would not have had enough time to talk to professors about the project. She encouraged student participa tion. “If you can’t buy one, be one,” she said. “It is a good way to meet other people and do something good for someone.” The United Way campus drive is a part of the organization’s Brazos County drive which started Sept.4. United Way supports 19 agencies in the Brazos County area, including Boy Scouts, Boy’s Club, the Arthritis Foundation, and the Brazos Valley Museum. Reagan made it clear Sunday on his return to Washington that, despite the grim figures, he has not “really gone to bat yet” for the proposal. And he pointed out he is fighting “the prop agandizing against this (that) has been going on for a couple of years.” The House committee is expected to submit its own resolution probably to day. A proposal against the AWACS sale, circulated in the House since last spring, has been signed by 255 mem bers — 37 more than needed for a veto. In the Senate, Sen. Robert Pack- wood, R-Ore., and 49 co-sponsors — one less than the needed majority — submitted their resolution of disapprov al late Thursday, shortly after President Reagan’s press conference defending the sale. The Senate committee expects to hear from Secretary of State Alexander Haig before its vote Wednesday and will hear today from public experts, in cluding Harold Saunders, President Carter’s assistant secretary of state for the Middle East. Sen. S.I. Hayakawa, R-Calif., still considered uncommitted on the sale, plans to introduce legislation to give the Senate control over the final sale of the AWACS to Saudi Arabia. Interviewed on NBC’s “Meet the Press’ Sunday, Defense Secretary Cas par Weinberger was asked how he in terpreted Reagan’s remark last week that he would “not permit the oil fields of Saudi Arabia to fall into unfriendly hands.” “I think what he had in mind specific ally was that if there should be anything that resembled an internal revolution in Saudi Arabia — we think that’s very remote — that he would not do what was done in the case of Iran, which was to stand by passively and in fact virtually advise the existing government and the world that the United States would not take any action to help, ” Weinberger said. In a separate interview, on CBS’ “Face the Nation,” Senate Armed Ser vices Committee Chairman John Tower of Texas said it is “iffy” to speculate how Saudi Arabia would be protected. He said, “the same internal condi tions do not exist” in Saudi Arabia as did in Iran. Both Tower and Weinberger insisted the controversial AWACS sale to Saudi Arabia should go through. Newsweek magazine, in its Oct. 12 issue, reports Haig recently admitted to Saudi leaders the Reagan administra tion lacks the votes to gain congressional approval for the sale, but told them the White House would continue to press for the deal. United Press International FORT WORTH — Cemetery work ers tried today to keep “ghouls” away from Lee Harvey Oswald’s grave. His widow, Marina Oswald Porter, began a new life, the wife of a carpenter — not an accused presidential assassin — her children spared from her ordeal. The exhumation of her first hus band’s body was the most extraordinary event for Porter in almost 18 years, when she learned on Nov. 22, 1963 that she was married to the man accused of assassinating President John F. Ken nedy. Two days later, he was dead. It was also a day during which the Russian spy theory of a British author was discredited by the precise realities of 1980s science, that Robert Oswald was vindicated from insistence that his brother’s body not be disturbed and three years of legal battles ended over a body nearly virtually a skeleton. After almost four hours of painstaking tests and examinations in Dallas, a medical team emerged to deliver the verdict: The body exhumed early Sun day was the same Lee Harvey Oswald buried nearly 18 years earlier, not an imposter as theorized by author Michael Eddowes who witnessed the exhumation. While a huge group of reporters questioned the experts, a black hearse whisked the remains in a motorcade back to Rose Hill Burial Park for re interment just eight hours after the ex humation. The cemetery closed its gates for the day and manager Neal Wretberg work ed into the evening trying to keep “ghouls” from scaling the fence to grab at clods of red earth that formerly sur rounded the coffin. Numerous specta tors lined a nearby fence and cars pulled over. “I’ve got ’em coming over the fence right now,” said Wretberg. “They’re ghouls. They’re grabbing some of the sod as ‘souvenirs. ” Wretberg ordered around-the-clock security for the Oswald grave. Porter said she no longer wanted to bear the stigma of being Marina “Oswald” Porter. “Now I have my answers and from now on I only want to be Mrs. Porter,” she told UPI. “I always intended for this to be a private matter but it became public because ofcircumstances beyond my control.” The four-member team of physicians — assisted by several other hand picked specialists — was relatively cer tain early into the autopsy that there was no imposter. Linda Norton, the pathologist who headed the investigating team, said: “Beyond any doubt — and I mean abso lutely any doubt — the person buried under the name Lee Harvey Oswald is in fact Lee Harvey Oswald.” Filing to open Tuesday for freshman elections By DENISE RICHTER Battalion Stall Filing for freshman elections opens Tuesday at 8 a.m. in the Student Gov ernment Office, 216A Memorial Stu dent Center, and closes Friday at 5 p.m. The election is scheduled for Oct. 27.

Houston man pursues lost companion MSC Council to vote on budget revisions - MSC committee budget revisions and reviews will be discussed and voted n at tonight’s MSC Council meeting, e meeting is at 6 p.m. in 216 Memo- al Student Center. The MSC Council and Directorate’s 1981-82 budget was allocated by Stu- lent Government members in Febru- iry, but committee budget revisions are till necessary because the allocated fonds were less than requested, MSC Council President Doug Dedeker said. These revisions also reflect a prefer ence change on behalf of MSC commit tee olficers, he said. Dedeker said some new officers were chosen in April after the committee budgets were approved, and some new officers have different jpriorities and requests concerning the ibudget. Some committees were also unsure as to their budget needs at the time of allocation, he added, and this will give them an opportunity to make requests and explain how their budget alloca tions will be used. The committees facing budget changes are: MSC Video, MSC Great Issues, MSC Hospitality, MSC Opera and Performing Arts Society, MSC Poli tical Forum and MSC Travel. MSC Cepheid Variable and MSC Basement committees will undergo the same type revisions at a later meeting, after they have had time to accurately project their needs, Dedeker said. He said the council will review com mittees’ budget again later in the school year. “The purpose of these budget re views is to keep (the committees) on track during the year,” Dedeker said. Budgets are also reviewed periodical ly by the council’s financial officers.

I was truly impressed by her interest and knowledge in marketing and her interest in me and my job,” he continued. At the time, Paulin, a 1979 mechanic al engineering graduate of Texas A&M, was employed by the Computer Service Bureau in Houston. “I gave her my business card and asked her to call me, so we could get together again and talk about her career in marketing. I had this feeling inside that she was going to call me,” he said. But not long after that, Paulin said he changed jobs and changed phone num bers. He hasn’t heard from the girl yet. “She was your cheerleader-type — tall, long dark hair and dark eyes. She was very pretty,” he said. “I don’t remember her name because I felt she would call me, but I do re member that her parents were mem bers of the Lakeside Country Club in K Ipk * !
