This year's first hearing on the State's Budget was marked by the pleas of a score of speakers urging additional state funds in order to maintain the City University of New York's free tuition policy. And several weeks later, after the Board of Regents announced tuition hikes at the State University, a SUNY-Aibany Student leader appeared on a local television 'claiming that he and his fellow students have a right to a free education-ijust like at CUNY. Unfortunately, there is no such thing as \free\ education. On the contrary, ali education is quite expensive as one look at your school tax bills in the State Budget will clearly show. \Free\ means only that other people pay. 'Why shouldn't those who will benefit from a higher education be the one who pay a. reasonable share of the costs? Perhaps our SUNY and CUNY students would change their minds if they sat down and figured out exactly how many extra pennies elderly pensioners will have to pay from, let's say, the new \hot dog\ tax to cover the bill for the \free\ education of, let's say, Playboy magazine's March Playmate of the Month, Ellen Michaels. Miss March is described as a student at CUNY's Queenborough Community college who \splits for the sun and surf of Miami during school vacations and as many week ends as possible in _ between.\ As the New York State Council of Economic Advisers warned in 1970 \a zero tuition policy in fact frequently discriminates against those whom such a policy is thought to aid most (low-income families}, and its continuation would damage efforts to provide quaility education increasingly fo New York students.\ By BARBARA REHM CHICAGO (UPI)-A man described as a \drifting film editor hard up for money\ hijacked a Miami-to-Chicago Delta Air Lines plane Monday, but surrendered meekly to authorities about 40 minutes after the jet landed at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport. William Herbert Green III, 30, a native of Berea, Ohio, was scheduled for arraignment to- day on air piracy charges. Greene was arrested as he came out the door of Delta flight 952, a four-engine Convair 880 carrying 85 passengers and a crew of six. He had already allowed the passengers to depart the plane. \This man said he had been drifting around the United States for months,\ Chicago FBI chief Roy K. Moore. \He had no gun-although he threatened violence in a note to the crew. He said he had recently had lived in Universal City, Calif., and . was last employed as a film editor.\ The hijacker was quoted as saying he wanted \the standard extortion rate for a big jet, $500,000 in small bills.\ He allowed the flight to continue to Chicago, let the passengers depart the aircraft and de- manded to be flown to the Bahama Islands. \He tells us that he 'got the idea for the hijacking after MORE GIFTS TO JOURNAL=REGISTER CAMP FUND 1.

Speaking at dedication ceremonies Sunday afternoon for the new 260,000 square foot campus on Old Byron Road, Dr. Boyer said the school is in many ways \at the heart\\ of the State University of New York's jacker Arrested O'Hare Airport getting aboard the plane.' He said that he wrote a note and handed it to stewardess (Julie) O'Neal about four or five minutes after the takeoff from West Palm Beach, Fla,\ Moore said. . Earl Boyd, the plane's co- pilot, talked to the hijacker for about 40 minutes after the plane landed, sitting in a seat next to him. After the passengers got off, Boyd told the hijacker he had a choice of flying to Nassau and facing charges there or getting off the plane in Chicago. Greene left with Boyd and was arrested by FBI agents without struggle at the door of the plane. Most passengers aboard the craft said they didn't know anything was wrong until they landed and were met by special buses which rolled them off for questioning by the FBI. Reds Have Small Hope For Talks PARIS (UPTD)-Communist di- plomatic sources said today they had little hope for an early resumption of the Vietnam peace talks. They said the Communist military offensive in South Vietnam will go on unabated. < \There is definitely no _ question of stopping the libera- tion forces advance\ to meet a U.S. and South Vietnamese pre- | condition for the reactivation of the suspended conference, the sources said. Xuan Thuy, chief negotiator for the North Vietnamese, Monday laid down two demands the United States must meet before negotiations could start again. A He said President Nixon must order a stop to air strikes over North Vietnam and lift his boycott of the regular semipub- | lic meetings held on Thursday for the past 39 months. If these conditions were met, Thuy indicated, parallel secret negotiations could start with Le Duc Tho, the high-ranking Hanoi government official with | whom presidential advisor Hen- ry A. Kissinger held private - talks last summer. Thuy suggested the peace | conference resume April 27, - educational network. The five-year history of Genesee Community College began in 1967 when temporary facilities opened with a full-time enrollment of 378 students. The anticipated enrollment for the coming year is 1,600 full-time, over 500 part-time, and more than 4,000 community service students. | Dr. Boyer said the new school will provide education to a wide spectrum of students from the community and not just to a fortunate few. He said the school's dedication was in a sense a. rededication of the community to the single most important element in the educational system the student. \A college in our midst,\ Dr. Boyer said to the capacity crowd which had jammed into the new Genesee Community College Forum, \says a great deal about our own priorities. \We are saying,\ he con- tinued, \that learning is im- Sadat Warns Of Possible Attack By United Press International Egyptian President Anwar Sadat warned Monday that an Israeli attack could come \at any moment'\ but said Egypt was prepared to repel any such strike. In Israel air raid sirens sounded throughout the country, mourning its nearly 6,000 war dead in 25 years of statehood. In a three-hour briefing to the Arab Socialist Union, Egypt's only political party, Sadat said 'his country was \in a state of complete preparedness because we expect an Israeli aggres- sion, using the pretext of a pre- emptive war, at any moment....\ In his speech, carried by Cairo Radio, Sadat said of the prospects for a peace settle- ment: \The doors have been closed to all the solutions that meet our basic principles, due to Israel's arrogance and the American stance. We have taken the decision to enter the battle and this is final.\ In Tel Aviv, Prime Minister Golda Meir in a speech to the relatives of fallen soldiers said the nation must never forget \why ourchildren went to war and why they died\ in the three wars since the 1948 war of independence. \They fought for the establishment of a Jewish state, for its defense, for the survival of the nation.\ _ Monday was the eve of Israel's 25th year as a state. The government ordered a 24- hour mourning period and the nation's theaters, cinemas and other places of entertainment were shut down. Radio and television broadcast special programs and flags flew at half-staff throughout the coun- try guerrilla group, said in a newsletter distributed in Beirut that Jordan is massing troops portant.\ He described the in- stitution as a kind of barometer of the direction the community is taking and he paid tribute to the architecture of the structure. As he looked up at the opaque sky-lights and the curving, almost medieval brick walls of the forum, Dr. Boyer com- plimented the architects on their design. \I think they've seen to it that things have been kept in human scale,\ Dr. Boyer said, \so that the building does not compete with us, but rather compliments us.\ Dr. Boyer, who appeared on 'the program with Dr. Cornelius V. Robbins, president of the college, Mrs. Alfred L. George, chairman of the college board of trustees and the college choir under the direction of Theodore Ashizawa, urged the community to support the new school. \In so doing,\ the educator said, \we are not just honoring an institution, but a comitment.\ Pasquale D. Dilavra; Expert on Sandstone ALBION Pasquale A. DiLaura, 82, of 301 East Ave., retired sandstone expert and civic leader for many years, died in Arnold Gregory Memorial Hospital yesterday after a long illness. Born in Alfenda, Italy, he came to America at the age of six. He was a graduate of Holley High School and Rochester Business Institute and moved to Albion in 1915. His forefathers had been stonecutters for 950 years and they helped take care of the structural requirements of Rome \The Eternal City\ so it was only natural he gravitated toward it. He tried three years in the construction business and became the youngest foreman the city of Rochester ever had. During a lull in the stone in- dustry in 1914 he built houses in Detroit, Mich., and had a major part in making the Billy Sunday Tabernacle into an exposition building. After World War I he was in- strumental in reorganizing three quarry companies and reac- tivating the Medina sandstone business in Orleans County,. As president of the DiLaura Stone Co., he produced curbing and building stone for many cities in. Northeastern United States. The stock market crash closed down most of the quarries in this area. He constructed several of the stone buildings at Hamlin State Park and other stone houses in Western New York. His stone and masonry work were utilized in constructing 15 of the bridges on the Monroe County section of the Lake Ontario State Parkway. He wrote a detailed article on the Medina sandstone industry that will be included in a.new Al Fatah, the largest Arab Orleans County history being compiled by Cary Lattin, Orleans historian. _ Active in community affairs, backed by armor and Ameri- he is the only person known to can-made artillery along its have served on the Albion Village borders with Syria and Iraq.

Mills, a contender for the Democratic presidential nomination, said Monday the Nixon administration's Phase II economic policies cannot check inflation. The Arkansas congressman, chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, told the 5th annual institutional investor conference that the economic policies constitute \mismanage- ment\ and that such an ap- proach would have \an unfor- tunate impact on the economy.\ \In fact, in view of the re- cent surge in prices, I do not believe the present program is adequate to check inflation,\ Mills said. He said wage - price controls were urgently needed but should not be expected to bear the entire burden of inflation. \If we want an effective anti- inflation program, we also must provide responsible fiscal and monetary management in addi- tion to wage - price controls,\ Mills said.

Two ships were put out of action but\ it was uncertain whether one was hit by a PT boat in a repetition of the 1964 Gulf of Tonkin incident. Despite unusually heavy B52 and fighter-bomber strikes in South Vietnam the Communist widened their offensive and burned four refugee villages near the coastal city of Quang Ngai, 160 miles below the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ). Military sources said the Communists also had occupied all towns and villages in Binh Dinh Province north of An Loc, 60 miles north of Saigon. Fighting was reported three miles from An Loc today and the South Vietnamese comman- der predicted heavy Communist onslaughts against An Loc tonight or Wednesday. Military sources said B52 strikes Monday a mile north of An Loc wiped out a North Nixon Aide Talk in IMT WASHINGTON (UPI) -Pres- idential Assistant Peter M. Flanigan agreed today to give \limited\ Senate testimony about his role in settlement of. a huge government antitrust suit - against International Telephone and Telegraph (ITT). Sen. James O. Eastland, D- Miss., chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, revealed the break in the White House- Senate impasse over the nomination of Richard G. Kleindienst to become attorney general by reading to the panel a letter from Flanigan dated today. | Some key Democrats had said they would not vote on Kleindienst's confirmation un- less Flanigan testified. In his letter, Flanigan noted that last week Presidential Counsel John W. Dean III \explained that I could not accept an invitation calling for Vietnamese regiment of about 1,400 men in a quarter-mile wide bombing pattern when the bombers struck in force. Weather Good for Raids The U.S. command said in the 24 hours ending at noon today some of the heaviest raids of the Indochina War were carried out. It said 20 B52 missions were flown over the South and 524 tactical air strikes were flown in the heaviest strikes since command records began in 1969. Senior. U.S. officials said they had no word of any bomb halt over North Vietnam. They said they would be \surprised\ if there was a halt and hoped none had been called. They reported the weather over North Vietnam was clear, an . indication new strikes might be carried out. . The war also blazed up today in Quang Tri Province, just below the Demilitarized Zone, and front dispatches said the Quang Tri combat base 10 miles below the DMZ and Artillery Base Pedro 12 milés to the southwest were hit today with at least 200 rounds of 130 l e Probe testimony - relating to the performance of my duties as a member of the immediate staff of the President.

Other front dispatches said every South Vietnamese base in Kontum Province was shelled as usual today but that Tan Canh, headquarters of a South Vietnamese regiment, was hit by 105 mm artillery, indicating main Communist forces were drawing close. The Communists kept the An Khe Pass supply route blocked and ambushed a South Korean column, killing four men and knocking out two armored personnel carriers. North Vietnamese Regroup A front dispatch said the situation at Fire Base Bas- togne, a key defense for the city of Hue 12 miles to the ° northeast had eased today, apparently because the North | Vietnamese were regrouping. | Helicopters were flying in supplies against comparatively small ground fire. The command said an explo- sion aboard the guided missile frigate Worden killed one sailor and injured nine on Sunday. A shell from a North Vietnamese shore battery hit the destroyer Buchanan on Monday, killing one sailor and wounding seven, it said. There were indications that the Worden may have been hit by fire from an attacking North Vietnamese torpedo boat, but the command said it was not certain. © Three ships of the naval armada standing off the North _ Vietnamese coast - including four aircraft carriers plus another 10 destroyers and cruisers-had been hit earlier by shore batteries but no injuries were reported. The ships have been shelling North Vietnam and Communist posi- tions in the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) and South Vietnam. Albion Firemen Represented ALBION - For the first time in the history of the organization, three full-time salaried em- ployees of the Albion Fire: Department will be represented tonight during 1972-73 contract talks with the Village of Albion by their own bargaining agent.

The loss of the main guidance system was the most serious trouble in the first two days of the 12-day mission to the unexplored lunar highlands. It occurred when the moonship was 164,000 miles from earth. Controllers found the source of the problem and radioed commands up to Thomas K. Mattingly, the pilot of the command ship Casper, who quickly fixed the system after an alarm sounded at 3:12 a.m. EST. . ''We're go at this time,\ Flight director Philip Schaffer reported after the complex electronic device used to steer the astronauts through track- less space was back in service. Good News The astronauts lost two hours of sleep because of the trouble and when they awoke at 11 a.m. EST they were told that - the interference had been eliminated with a change in procedures. *Now, you're talking,\ said Young. \That's the best news I've heard today.\ The problem involved a gyroscope-controlled navigation platform suspended so that it can swivel freely, regardless of the position of the spacecraft. The platform is aligned to star references and is s to retain this \fix\ and provide a reference against which movements of the spacecraft can be measured. But instead of moving freely, this crucial navigation device locked in one position, making it useless for navigation. Lander Okay - Apollo 16 has a backup guidance system that was not affected, but Mission Control said if the primary system had been knocked out permanently, the astronauts would not have been permitted to swing into lunar orbit Wednesday. Instead they would have looped around the moon and return to earth. Before the guidance problem developed, the astronauts re- checked the lunar lander Orion, and found that it was go for Thursday's descent to an alpine plateau on the ancient, unex- plored lunar highlands. | | After ' Mattingly freed the locked guidance unit, he had to align it with stars so the system would know where it was.

Traditionally, salaried em- ployees in the Fire Department here have tied their pay scale to the contracts negotiated between the Albion Police Department and the village board. Personnel say salary increments have run below but parallel to wages of the police. They argue, however, that in recent years, the difference between their salaries and the wages of the police have in- creased markedly. They say that while the police have negotiated successfully for salary hikes, Fire Department personnel have seen their wages slip steadily in relation to police salaries. The Fire Department, a volunteer unit, has four full-time employees. The chief dispatcher, however ; will not be represented tonight by the AFL-CIO affiliated bargaining agent.
