fridzy. May 3. 1970 THE DAILY TAR HEEL Pcqe Six r. She Daily ear Izittl fn' A World News J BRIEFS By Unlit & Prtu InttnusiUmcX Major Complex In Cambodia Hit WASHINGTON The White House confirmed Thursday that U.S. troops moving into the "Fishhook" area of Cambodia had uncovered a "major sophisticated enemy base complex." Press Secretary Ronald Ziegler said the complex was larger than any discovered so far in the area where Communist forces operating in South Vietnam had set up their top military headquarters. The top headquarters is known as the Central Office of South Vietnam (COSVN) to Americans. Ziegler said the complex, uncovered by U.S. troops ordered into the ?rea last Thursday by President Nixon, could be one of the base areas used by COSVN. FCC Limits TV Network Time WASHINGTON The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Thursday limited the amount of network television programming most Americans can see in one night to three hours effective Sept. 1, 1971. It said it hoped this would give viewers a wider selection by encouraging new sources of programs. On a 5-2 vote with Chairman Dean Burch and Commissioner Robert Weils dissenting, the commission restricted commercial television stations in the top 50 markets to three hours of network fare between the prime-time hours of 7 and 11 p..m.-or 6 and 10 p.m. in central time. This means that network stations in big cities will have to turn elsewhere for programs to fill the remaining hour. The FCC said it did not envision, exclusively local programming filling the hour, but hoped other sources would start producing programs of nationwide interest now that they will have access to top rated television time. Israel Stages 4-Hour Attack Waves of Israeli warplanes bombed and strafed Egyptian military positions on the Suez Canal for four hours Thursday, an Israeli military spokesman announced. The Israelis also reported a rash of Arab guerrilla attacks in the last 24 hours in which nine Israelis and local Arabs were killed and nine more wounded. The air raid against Egyptian installations on the west bank of the canal was the third in 18 hours. Military observers in Tel Aviv said the strikes appeared to be aimed at relieving the pressure of Egypt's heavy cross-canal bombardments. The Tel Aviv spokesman said in successive sweeps along the canal for four hours, but he gave no details except to say all returned safely. Committee Asks Delay On Moon Shot WASHINGTON The House Appropriations .Committee Thursday endorsed further manned space exploration but urged that the next moon shot be delayed because of the near disaster that befell Apollo 13. In approving a $3.2 billion budget for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) for the fiscal year beginning July 1, the committee said the Oct. 1 launch date for Apollo 14 should be delayed until sometime after the first of 1971. "This is not meant to limit the number of lunar landings presently recommended by NASA," the committee said, "but to give ample time for the study, report, and correction of the Apollo 13 problems." v miltod's YEUOl'J In Full May Your Season, You'll Save Lots and Come Out a Big Winner!

Other speakers will include law professors and faculty members of various state universities. Ellis said Chapel Hill students that plan to attend should be at Ehringhaus Field by 11:45 this morning.

Ellis noted that marchers in Raleigh will be restricted to sidewalks because no parade permits have been issued. Raleigh tbrt?jwts!srn Mutucl Llfi Irts. ZZy awaits faculty's decision :Mobe), coordinator of the protest, said it would go ahead with plans to assemble thousands of persons in LaFayette Square, a tree-lined park directly across Pennsylvania Avenue from the front of the White House. If there is any violence, spokesmen claimed, it would be initiated by police, and they warned it would endanger members of Congress who would be in the forefront of the demonstration. U.S. District Judge George Hart Jr. granted a Justice Depart m e n t request Wednesday permitting the demonstrators to use the Washington Monument 1 r.lcCnrincy 2 James Taylor 1st 8c Second 3 Bth Dimensions Greatest Hits 4 Th Ouess Who "American Woman Jcthro 'Benefit1 FHIDAY 17 fm in , ftm ( FT grounds, which is almost a half-mile south, on the other side of the White House. But Hart specifically ruled out LaFayette Square. The Secret Service had said President Nixon would not be adequately protected with a major demonstration so near and Hart said the park was not big enough to hold the crowd, supposed to number as many as 30,000 persons. Police plans to enforce the court's decision and to cordon off the White House have not been announced. But all police leaves have been cancelled and the entire 4,200-man District of Columbia police force will be ready for duty. npn fWQ QnpFn inr wr Qnn r?i Look for this fabulous half-dozen: He 5 Crosby, Stills a Hash Res.

As antiwar protesters handed out afleii on Washington street comers and roamed Capitol Hill, leading members of Congress expressed sympathy with their anger but cautioned against violence. White He use Press Secretary Ronald Ziegler told newsmen after the university presidents meeting, that "the President is interested in problems of society and student unrest." He said much of the discussion centered on the Vietnam War and Nixon's decision to send U.S. troops into Cambodia, which prompted student leaders to organize a protest march here Saturday. Local authorities were preparing for an expected 30.000 to 35,000 students. The National Student Association reported that 350 colleges and universities had been shut down nationwide. All leaves and days off for the District of Columbia's 4,200 policemen were cancelled for Saturday. The government planned to cordon off the White House so that no one could get closer than one block on Saturday. But the rally organizers, spurning federal court permission for a gathering on the Washington Monument grounds, said demonstrators still would try to mass in front of the White House as originally planned. "We are past the time for fun and games with police in the streets," said pacifist David Dellinger,' one of the "Chicago Seven" defendants. "This is S5.9G Don 58.S0 nog.

"If Pre$jdr.t Nixon ar.d Attorney General John N. Mitchell decide to set vp the Kind of atmosphere where troops will attack the demonstrators, they will hne to attack members of Congress." he said. Senate Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield said he had met with several students from Montana attending eastern schools and jidvixxi them spinst violence. "I've urged them to be dignified, to be calm and not to be dragged into any kind of confrontation." he said. "If they are, he said, "they will be heard loud and clear," but violence would "add further to polarization which is already well along." Similar appeals were made by Sens. Harold E. Hughes, D-Iowa; George McGtnern. D-S.D., and Birch Bayh, D-Ind. Hughes said those who plan acts of violence "play into the hands of those who want to prolong the war abroad and tighten the repression at home." While professing its concern over student turmoil, the administration suffered an embarrassment Thursday with the resignation of Anthony J. "Toby" Moffett, 25, as head of the eight-month-old Office of Students and Youth in the U.S. Office of Education. Moffett told a news conference he could no longer serve as the administration's liaison with college students because of its "increasingly repressive character." He said he was convinced that Nixon and his closest advisers "will sanction even the most vicious tactics against young people and other legitimate political dissenters."
