The Daily Tar Heel Friday, March 5, 1971 Langley reviews JUIB o 9 aece -no 7 V 9 J 6 A ? Apes i IDT oil lie v r 7 Niso0 meets press JLL afffer day off plaenisi WASHINGTON-President Nixon conferred with his top foreign policy advisers Thursday in preparation for his news conference discussion of the expanding ground war in Southeast Asia. The President kept his schedule free of appointments and worked in his hide-away office adjacent to the White House prior to his 9 p.m. EST appearance. He talked only with top-ranking aides, including Secretary of State William P. Rogers and Dr. Henry A. Kissinger, his chief national security adviser. The news conference, his 19th since taking office, was limited at Nixon's request to a discussion of foreign policy. This apparently reflected his desire to more fully explain the reasons behind geographically expanding the ground war into Laos at a time when American troops are pulling out. The American supported South Vietnamese invasion of the Laotian panhandle coupled with recent threats by South Vietnamese President Nguyen Van Thieu to move into North Vietnam appear to have given a boost to the flagging antiwar movement in the United States. Laos offensive advances SAIGON-South Vietnamese troops in Laos Thursday drove to within three miles of the vital Ho Chi Minh Trail junction of Sepone where the Pentagon said Communists had launched the first major SAM missile attacks against U.S. planes outside North Vietnam. The South Vietnamese were reported to have used leapfrogging tactics in their push toward Sepone, the town military sources said earlier was a prime target of the Laotian offensive to cut Communist supply lines to the south. The advance into Laos, bolstered by 3,000 Vietnamese marines, was announced in Saigon following an almost three-week stall because of intense North Vietnamese pressure and high South Vietnamese casualties. Military spokesmen said the South Vietnamese were now 22 to 25 miles along French colonial Highway 9 inside Laos and about three miles from Sepone. Since their initial border crossing and push, the South Vietnamese task force had been unable to move more than 1 8 miles inside Laos until the announcement Thursday. Amendment passes committee WASHINGTON The Senate Judiciary Committee, moving with uncommon speed, unanimously approved a constitutional amendment Thursday that would give 1 8-year-olds the right to vote in all elections. In a rare display of agreement on a constitutional question, conservatives and liberals, Republicans and Democrats got behind a bill to straighten out what they felt was certain to become an electoral mess next year without the amendment. The House Judiciary Committee approved the same amendment 32-2 Tuesday. Congress gave 1 8-year-olds the vote last year, but the Supreme Court said it had no power to extend them the vote except for federal elections. So, they have the right to vote for President, senator and congressman, but could -Tint .vfthe...frr statp. tfwfmrvr mnvrvr or rhrrl hrnrH mpmher iin1p: trip, stntps CTnanpp.n rne.ir laws to aurvw rnem to -i mi 1a a i a - i i r r- 1 1 1 i i uirow meir proteuurea ruuo uomusion.

D, R Five Easy Pieces This movie cannot be called a complete success, simply because many of its scenes just do not come off, especially in the first half hour. When they do work it is due partly to some fine scripting and excellent work in minor roles but mostly to the absolutely stunning acting of Jack Nicholson, giving. intercollegiate photography competition.

It's just a corny slab of meat for the "mass audience." A lot of pretty good actors are made to look rather silly. CH Wednesday about a possible South Vietnamese invasion into North Vietnam. Kelly said the signature campaign '"provides an opportunity in a minimal way for people to declare that they are against the war." We aren't trying to mobilize people because the machine can't be stopped," he said, "but there is little else we can do. We all have friends who are getting killed in Indochina." Kelly said a meeting will be held at 7 p.m. today in 111 Murphey for anyone interested in helping collect signatures. 80 teams scheduled in 71 Quiz Bowl More than 80 teams are scheduled to compete in the 1971 Carolina Union Quiz Bowl starting Monday, March 8 at 7 p.m. in 202-204 in the Carolina Union.
