8 WAUSAU DAILY RECORD-HERALD MERRILL DAILY HERALD FRIDAY, JANUARY 23, 1970 Obituaries Poles fear intervention in West German talks The sources said the Poles are trying to forestall this by starting political talks next month, seeking Bonn's recognition of the Oder-Neisse line as the border between Poland and BONN (AP) Poland's Communist government is afraid the Soviets and the East Germans will try to interfere with its economic talks with West Germany, East European sources reported today. Marathon County Court State traffic toll hits 27 By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The deaths of two persons today of injuries suffered earlier sent Wisconsin's 1970 traffic fatality toll to 27. This compared to 21 on this date last year, but 54 at this time in record 1968. Robert Letourneau, 20, of Fond du Lac died today of injuries suffered Thursday night when the car he was in left highway 45 about four miles north of Racine and struck a power pole. Martin Hennessey, 69, of Highland, who was injured Jan.

13 in a collision that claimed the life of Wilfred Ginter of Dicke-ville, died today in a Dodgeville hospital. Iowa County authorities said cars driven by the two men collided head-on on Highway 18-151, one-half mile east of Dodgeville. Mrs. Richard Tolson, 30, Milwaukee, died at a Marshfield hospital Thursday of injuries suffered last Saturday in a two-car crash 5Mi miles south of Marshfield on Highway 13. Kangaroos killed More than a million kangaroos are slaughtered every year.

The meat, most of it gamy and course, is eaten by people in some countries and by pets in others. The hides make fine glove and boot leather. This will enable the Poles to claim they are going to get political concessions from West Germany, and that any interference in the economic talks will undermine the Polish position in the border talks. Poland is highly Interested In obtaining technological know-how, credits and increased Import quotas for Polish goods from West Germany. The informants said the Polish fears were outlined before Christmas to Chancellor Willy Brandt by an emissary from Warsaw.

As a result, Brandt agreed to begin the talks in February, although the exact date has not been set. The Soviets and East Germans reportedly would like to see Bonn give diplomatic recognition to East Germany before other European Communist governments make any progress in contacts with Bonn. The four major victors of World War II-the United States, Britain, France and the Soviet Union established the Oder and Neisse rivers as the "provisional" border between East Germany and Poland, pending agreement on a peace treaty. This border put parts of prewar Germany under Polish rule, and over the years the West German people have been forced to realize that the Oder-Neisse line is now the permanent border, even though a peace treaty has never been concluded. li i I AP Wirt photo New look for the Lennons recent visit to a barber at Aalborg, Denmark.

"There is more to being a bartender than drawing a glass of beer." Judge Maurice M.

Spracker ruled, in upholding the city's bar against female bar tenders. The varied duties of a bar tender are best handled by man ho sairl herause such man, he said, Decause sucn work in a large metropolitan area "is fraught 'with difficulties and dangers." "It is not a matter of denying to a woman a constitutional right to equality of employment," he ruled. "But rather it it is a matter of protecting the women from built-in occupational hazards which are inherent in this type of employment." The ruling was against the Wisconsin Tavern Keepers Association and Mrs. Juanita Kaemmer of Milwaukee, who was refused a license by the city council's license committee. The association claimed the city ordinance denying bartenders licenses to women was unconstitutional because it was based on sex.

Subpoena Whitewater officials ELKHORN (AP) Two vice presidents of Whitewater State University were subpoenaed by the defense Thursday to appear at today's session of a hearing for black students after a fight in a white students' fraternity house. The subpoenas, issued by attorney Percy Julian, who was retained by the American Civil Liberties Union to represent the students, came after he moved that Whitewater President Wil-LIAM Carter be called as a witness. He also moved that Carter be disqualified from making any final determination in the case. Hearing examiner, J.

Ward Rector, a former state Supreme Court Justice, denied both motions. He will make recommendations to Carter following the hearing. Rector, who indicated the hearing might wind up today, also said he would give each side a week to file written briefs in the case, and even after that was expected to make his recommendation available only to Carter. Carter said any student could appeal his decision to the Board of Regents. UWS YoiUlff I schools must accept change GREEN BAY (AP) Educational institutions must be "creatively adaptive to the continuance of change" if they are to survive in an era of confrontation policies, a University of Wisconsin official said Thursday.

"Constructive change isn't made through threats of violence," Chancellor Edwin Young of the university's Madison campus told the Northeast Area Association of County Agriculture and Extension Education Committees. The chancellor criticized protesters who justify the use of violence as the only means of producing change. "Change is an evolutionary process," Young said. "If we are to have a successful revolution of thought and action in this country, it will be produced by those who have a long-range dedication and commitment to making society responsible to our citizens' needs." 903 East Third St. PAGE, Mrs.

He suggested authorizing $2.5 billion per year in federal construction grants for the next five years the federal share for $25 billion worth of facilities. Muskie said there should be a doubling of the pace in setting air quality standards and an attack on "every source of pollution." Unnecessary enf orcement delays must be eliminated, he added. Close bridge MILWAUKEE (AP) The old bridge leading to the new War Memorial Building on the lakef ront will be closed, rather repaired, the Milwaukee County Park Commission ruled Thursday. The 45-year-old span will be closed to vehicles Monday morning after the rush hour. It is to be razed, starting late in 1972, for construction of the proposed Lake Freeway.

A pedestrian oriented deck will be built spanning the freeway. Traffic will be rerouted on Clybourne traffic engineers said. "Close examination of the underside of the deck supports reveals deterioration of the concrete and-or steel to such an extent that the factor of safety for use of the bridge by auto traffic has been reduced by 30 per cent ormore," a report to the commission said. Was injured in attack Miss Margaret Clark, 624 Franklin who was injured Jan. 7 in Chicago, was injured by a would-be mugger and was not struck by a car as reported.

In a note to the Record-Herald today, Miss Clark said she was struck from behind by a would-be robber as she walked from a bus stop to where she is living in Chicago.

The car version of the accident was reported here by friends. gram in this field ever in the nation's history." Among other things, the President called for a $10 billion, five-year program to reduce water pollution. "A sense of urgency will help," Muskie said, "but we must also act." The senator's recommendations covered water and air quality, resource recovery and managing solid wastes, noise pollution control, reorganizing der consideration, the officials say, to fulfill the President's Thursday pledge of "strengthened enforcement procedures.

One change would place mortj weight on the pollution causerf at low-speed city driving. Much of the compliance testing is now done at medium and high speeds where pollution is less. Jumbo jet completes maiden trip NEW YORK (AP) After a delay of nearly seven hours and cancellations by 128 impatient passengers, a Boeing 747 jumbo jetliner has returned from London, completing its maiden transatlantic commercial round trip. The Pan American World Airways jet arrived Thursday with 150 of the 278 passengers booked for the flight. It had carried 332 on its eastward flight out of a 362-passenger capacity.

The flight originally was due back at Kennedy Airport at 12:25 p.m. Thursday, but after a series of delays, lost an additional hour on the westward Atlantic flight and arrived seven hours late. There were 128 passenger cancellations on the return trip, perhaps the greatest number ever compiled for a single airliner. On the first leg of the trip, from New York to London, the flight was delayed more than six hours at Kennedy while passengers changed to a second 747 because an engine on the first overheated. Another hour was lost in London because of unloading problems.

"It wasn't worth the hassle," said computer salesman Jack Zoll, 24, the first passenger off the flight in New York. "It certainly was nothing spectacular," Zoll added. "The flight was very rough and I wouldn't go out of my way to take it again." Schram Funeral Home Since 1888 536-4646 Alfonsi may seek state post MINOCQUA Rep. Paul Alfonsi, R-Minocqua, revealed this week he is seriously considering becoming a candidate for lieutenant governor. Alfonsi announced last week he would not seek re-election to an 11th term in the Assembly.

"At the moment, I'm giving serious consideration to seeking office on the state ticket as a candidate for lieutenant governor," Alfonsi told a Minocqua paper. Alfonsi, 61, was unsuccessful in a 1940 bid for governor on the Progressive Party ticket. He served in the Assembly' from 1932 until stepping out of office during World War II.

Muskie, chairman of the Senate subcommittee on air and water pollution, said he is "encouraged by the sense of urgency which the President has expressed" regarding the quality of the environment. President Nixon, in his State of the Union message Thursday, said he will propose "the most comprehensive and costly pro breakthroughs is two-fold: Carmakers, freed from required yearly tinkering, can design the necessary major exhaust improvements. Regulations can be framed in terms of public health needs rather than the short-term capabilities of the industry.

The auto industry and government agree the standard internal combustion engine can still be used to meet the 1975 standards if fuels are improved and new exhaust-burning devices are developed. But government and industry disagree over the internal combustion engine's potential for meeting the even tougher antipollution standards expected for 1980. HEW pollution fighters say it will be "one heck of a job" to reach those goals without new propulsion systems such as steam, electricity, or gas turbine. Automakers think they can do the job with today's standard engine. Several changes are also un- while Florida was "denied an allocation of its proportionate share." Under the Constitution only the Supreme Court may consider suits between the states.

But it does not have to hear suits it deems invalid. No action was taken immediately on Kirk's motion to file suit. seaway tolls Revenues from the seaway over the years have not been enough to meet the costs. Legislation has been introduced in Congress to have the United States assume the original costs of construction. Seaway traffic was less in 1969 than it was in 1968.

This was partly due to a strme in the Canadian iron mines. Oberlin said no formal steps have been taken towards negotiations. Such negotiations would be necessary before tolls could be increased. Seeks national school desegregation standards WASHINGTON (AP) President Nixon's campaign against auto pollution will skip year-by-year changes in exhaust standards and impose tough requirements for the 1975 model year that would lower emission ceilings 33 to 78 per cent, government officials say. And tentative goals for 1980, according to Health, Education and Welfare Department sources, are reductions of 80 to 99 per cent from the 1971 standards.

Publication of the 1975 standards is expected within 90 days. The President, terming the automobile "our worst polluter of the air," said in his State of the Union address Thursday: "We shall intensify our research, set increasingly strict standards and strengthen enforcement procedures and we shall do it now." The purpose of laying aside requirements for gradual, annual improvements in the control of harmful exhaust in favor of more dramatic, long-term adopt a "unitary" system of education. Kirk said it will be impossible for Florida to meet the deadline. Therefore, he asked the court for permission to sue the 49 other states and Finch since the other states would continue to receive their "proportionate allocation of tax funds derived from the federal government" To review WASHINGTON AP) Informal discussions are going on between the U.S. and Canada to determine whether the present level of tolls on vessels using the St.

Lawrence Seaway meet financial requirements. David Oberlin, administrator of the St. Lawrence Seaway Development Corp. said Thursday that the tolls charged do not meet the costs. When the seaway was authorized by Congress it was stipulated that the tolls should be sufficient to pay the estimated $130 million construction costs and the cost of operations.

WASHINGTON (AP) Gov. Claude Kirk of Florida appealed today to the Supreme Court for national standards to govern the desegregation of public schools in all 50 states. He said the court should define what it means by a "unitary" school system and consider setting a single date for all the states to accomplish desegregation. Kirk also asked the justices to bar Robert H. Finch, the secretary of Health, Education and Welfare, from withholding any federal funds from Florida for failure to accomplish desegregation in Bay and Alachua counties by Feb.

1. The governor, who appeared personally at the court to file his case, said the state would not have available the "millions of dollars" needed to bus school children in the counties until September after the next session of the state legislature. The court, on Jan. 14, ordered officials in Bay and Alachua and in 12 other districts in Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana and Mississippi to desegregate their public schools by Feb. 1 and MticrSr Sbctthci SIXTH ADAMS STREET, WAUSAU ANTONE STEFL Arrangements pending.
