Vogel arrested t‘ofer that night for public in»

However. results of criminal proceedings are inad—

who presided in the civil suit. previous results are
irrelevant because the two respective juries operate
under a different set ofinsti‘uctions.

andit must be 2i unanimous decision. In a civil c2 ise. he
said. jurors have to decide only if a charge is likely to be
true or not. and a minimal vote of 9-3 is acceptable

The jury yesterday considered two questions:

Maximum judge minimizes sentences

Supreme Court without success and the only
judicial procedure left was Sirica's action.

Had the judge taken no action, then the con-
victs’ fate could have been determined by
President Carter.

Maximum John J. Sirica, the US. District
(hurt judge who was involved with the
Watergate case for five years, became not so
maximum Tuesday when he reduced the sen-
fences of some of the scandal’s big names—John
N. Mitchell, HR. Haldeman and John D.
Ehrlichman.

Such reductions are commonplace in federal
cases involving perjury. A person who is sent to
prison for one year for lying under oath usually
ends up sewing about four months.

Sirica cut the Zlgyear to 8-year sentences of
the trio to a period of “not less than one nor more
than four years."

leniency in their behalf.

The campaign of Joe Graves has
taken onthat desperate appearance.
It haslost theintegrity that once was
its most salient characteristic, its
most refreshing attraction.

Last Friday, the Graves campaign
hekl a press conference at Graves
headquarters, conducted by Marty
Barth, campaign manager. Graves
was absent, she said, because the
statementto be issued was coming
from thecampaign, not from Graves
personally. Does she really think it's
possible to separate the two?

In her prepared statement,Barth
said it had come to the attention of
the campaign that while ABC
commissioner. Jim Amato may
have presided over the issuing of
questionable and perhaps illegal
liquor licenses to friends of the

questionable conducton the part of
Mr. Amato," she said, “is the fact
that a major news outlet attempted
to suppress and cover up these
alleged wrongdoings."

WKYT-TV, Channel 27 had
prepared a news documentary on
the sub ject.lt had been scheduled to
air sometime before the mayoral
election, but now may not be run
before then. The investigation and
script was prepared by reporter Al
Parsons

Barth then said, “Why this story
was killed we donot know. Wedo
know the reporter involved was
given no reason why the story was
killed. We also know the reporter
has resigned in disgust.

King’s death comes alive
during TV tribute to Elvis

By BETTY PETERSON

We read allabout that other...the
death. And read. And read Now
this ..the dying:

Elvis Presley stood for an age and
you didn't have to be a fanaticalfan
of the image to be a friend to the
man ifthat age belonged to you. For

commentary

those friends who had not seen him
in the months proceeding his death,
Monday night‘s tribute by CBS was a
reckoning.

 

 

Sure. someone had said he was
battling obesity,that his voice had
lost its range. that his words were
slurred. but this didn't matter to his
frienrb. They would take him this
way just to see him again. But it
shoulm‘thave been.

For when it was over, they wished
they hain ‘t watcle They hadn't
wanted to see him dying. They had
only wanted something more to keep
him alive‘to keep alive the age.

The program, taped two months
prior to h: (bath, had been carefully
edted so thatonly the best of what
was ldt of the Elvis image was
aired

You have to wonder about the
email! of fhd m. Ya: found

yourself straining with him by the
end ofa song, straining to help him
reach for and hold that last note
without dropping it.

Perspiration laved his face like he
stood in a pouring rain and you
wishedhe wouldn‘ttry so hard. He
thought you wanted to see him
swivel his hips but you didn‘t care
about that. He tried anyway and
when they wouldn‘t work, you were
embarased for him.

His movements were contortive
and his fingers seemed to draw up
convulsively at times.

His body appeared to be filled with
an unnatural amount of fluid,
causing a puffiness in his face and a
swelling to the point of tightness
over the rest of his body.

The protruding stomach and fat
fingers didn‘t belong to a man
struggling against obesity, they
belonged to a sick man—~a dying
man.

Before Elvis sang “My Way," he
took a piece of paper from one ofthe
members of the group. “l don’t know
the words," he mumbled and
proceerhd to give the appearance of
reading the first few lines as he
sang:

"And mw theendis near. so i face
the final cwtain. My friencb, I'll
state it cletl‘, 1’] state my caseof
which l‘m certain.“

But after he got into the song, the
paper was forgotten. He had made
this same gesture at other recent
concerts. Was he trying to feign an
indifference to the song so we
wouldn'tassociate ittoo closely with
him? Or was hetrying to tell us
something by eating our attention to
the sorg in this way?

The thinking was that he knew he
was dyingand that his friemls knew
he was dying, so that what happened
was much the same as what always
happens between friends when one is
dying. They pretended. Butthe truth
was in their eyes.

80 all this had gone on before, and
when he died h's frienrb went on
pretendirg. Oh, they knew, but
asong as they were watching his old
movies, listening to h'B old songs,
see'ngthe specials, reading all that
was being written trout him and. .-
they ddn‘th ave to let go completely.
But Monday night they were there
for the dying.

In one of EmilyDickinson's many
poems concerning death, she writes
after the (bath of a friend:

"And We—We placed the flair,

And drew the Head erect, And then ' ‘

an awful leiaire, Belef to regrlate."

We have placethe hair and drawn
the head erect. Perhaps now it is
time...

incident is that the Graves cam-
paign made little if any effort to find
out why the story was not run. At
least three people at WKYT—TV
could have explained it — the station
manager, the program director or
the news director.

Ken Kurtz. news director for
WKYT, was present at the press
conference. In fact, the Graves
campaign called him the day before
to invite him to the cmference, but
did not ask him about the story.To
Kurtz‘ knowletge. no one at WKYT-
TV was asked. '

At the conference, Kurtz
responded indignantly to Barth’s
charges. The story was not run,
Kurtz said, “because our legal
counsel advised as it contained at
least six potentially libelous or

more proof can be found.

“AndParsons did not resign in
disgtst to my knowledge. Frankly,
he quit to take a higher paying job
with a mayoral candidate in
Jacksonville, Fla. A simple phone
call to me would have explained that
to you."

Barth‘s statement went on to say.
”There are powerful people who
evidently do not want the govemor
and Jim Amato in particular to be
embarrassed -— to be implicated in
possible illegal activity.

“Worse yet, they do not want to
dry up a source for dispersing
political favors to political friends, a
practice we are finding all too often
in the present administration."

The joint li.S.~vSoviet
statement ontlie Middle East
represents the Iatt-st attempt
to bring the question to 3

Geneva con ference. The.
statement has brought
criticism from Israeli

government spokesmen and
from American Jewish
leaders

The joint statement issued
last Saturday. calls for
Israel‘s withdrawal from
land occupied sine e the 19637

ments of dernilitarized zones
patrolled by l'iiited Nations
tiYNi peace keeping forces
and for the recognition of the
"legitimate rights" of
Palestinian Arabs

The immediate barrier to a
Geneva conference is the
dispute ovc r the composition
of the Arab delegation. Israel
refuses to negotiate with the
Palestine Liberation
Orgruiiration iI’Lti i. which it
brands as “terrorist" ',

Israel insists on a united
Arab delegation which ex-
cludes all known PLO
members, though the \rabs
have agreed to be
represent ed as a united
group. they emphasize that
the PLO is the legitimate
representative of Palestinian
Arab interests and must be
included

The ultimate conflict is
over the creation of a
Palestinian state. probably
on the West Bank of the
Jordan Israel is afraid that
the American eovei'nnicnt‘s
reference to “Palestinian
rights" primers an intention
to force the creation of a
Palestinian siwtr- on it. the
ctiiieerreai that
such a state would be a base
for tet'it,::~: n' operations
against their country.
'I‘lieI'S is in ii delicate and

 

lsraelis are

contradictory position.
seeking on the one hand to
persuade Israel that there is
no change in policy while on
the other, assuring the Arabs
that progress is being made
toward resolving the
Palestinian question.

Israel‘s reluctance to ac-
cept a Palestinian state is
understandable because of
past events. The PLO position
has historically been to deny
the legit i maey oflsrael and to
tail for a secular state in
Palestine.

Many Israelis survived the
li'ilticast in Nazi occupied
lands during. the I93tis and
lthlS.

liven those Jews who had
no direct experience in the
tragedy accurately perceive
European history as a
progression of pogroms and
similar iepressiori Indeed,
repression of Jews continues
in the Soviet Union and
elsewhere.

These people think that the
only security is a strong,
militant Jewish state. They
also think a PLOcontrolled
state ill Palestine would
jeopardize their nation;
believing the PLO's spirit is
best typified by the murders
:ll the Munich Olympics in
Hill

Nevertheless. the op-
portunities for peace are
better now than they have
been for some time. Last
month. Israeli troops invaded
the border regions of Lebanon
to force Palestinian troops
away from the area. A
potentially dangerous
situation was avoided when
both sides withdrew.

In another development,
PLO leader Yassir Arafat
indicated to ABC com-
iiiei‘itator Barbara Walters
that his group is ready to
arm- to [N resolution 242,
which among other things,
itiiara ntees the right of Israel
to exist as aJevn‘sh state.

Israel. for its part. has

 

 

increased the hopes for an
agreement by cracking down
on unauthorized Jewish
settlements on the occupied
West Bank.

Certainly Israel will have
no security until a lasting
peace is achieved. But peace
isn't possible until the rights
of the Palestinians are
acknowleged Arafat‘s PLO
willnot be satisfied unless it
has its own state,which was
part of the original 1948 UN
partition plan.

The Carter Administration
is trying to manuever the
parties to the Geneva
bargaining table. In addition
to the politicaladvantages of
reactinga settlement and the
concern over US.
vulnerability in the event of
another Arab oil embargo,
Carter and Secretary of State
Cyrus Vance know that the
Middle East will remain a
threat to world peace unless
something constructive is
done.

Once the parties are finally
brought to Geneva. the
success of their talks will
depend on Israel’s
willingness to okay 3 PLO
state.

Undoubtedly such ac»

security, including
demiiitarized buffer zones

also be a part of the deal,
