SAIGON (AP)--When the first American prisoners are released in South Viet-nam or Hanoi, they will see an international assortment of new faces--anda few that look like home.

The four parties that signed the cease-fire agreement--the United States,North Vietnam, South Vietnam and the Viet Cong--will each have an observeron the spot at each prisoner recovery site.

So will each of the members of the International Commission of Controland Supervision who will be present to observe and report on any violations:Canada, Hungary, Poland and Indonesia.

There will be a few additional Americans outside the official circle--thecrews of the U.S. helicopters or medical evacuation planes that will bringthe men out.

The four party Joint Military Commission has a prisoner subcommittee butthe international peacekeeping commission does not.

Under the cease-fire protocols, the military commission must inform thepeacekeeping commission about the arrangements for an exchange of prisoners.Until last night, the International Commission reported it had heard nothing.

"What we are trying to find out is when we will get some notificationfrom the Joint Military Commission because the 15 days is almost up," saidCanadian Counsel Howard Singleton who has been concentrating on prisonerrecovery.

Thursday, February 8, 1973

DOLE- from page onePresident Nixon to end U.S. involvement but that "a lar-ger question today, as the war ends, is not the endingbut the beginning of our involvement--when our men inVietnam were called advisers and when their number wassecretly creeping up and up beyond the limits that theAmerican public knew.

"Our questions must go to such matters as the murdersof President Diem and his brother and the way this per-iod set us irrevocably on the road to the tragic loss,diminution or disruption of so many lives both Americanand Vietnamese," Dole said.

"We must question those early events and those firstpolicies," he added.

PRISONERS- from page oneThe prisoner protocol says only that American and for-

eign prisoners as well as Vietnamese military prisonersshall be returned within 60 days "at a rate no slowerthan the rate of withdrawal from South Vietnam of Unit-ed States forces." But U.S. negotiator Henry Kissingerhas said he expected the prisoners to be released in15-day intervals.Leaders of the international commission's prisoner

recovery teams met for the first time yesterday morningfor what Singleton described as "an informal exchangeof views.

"We knocked around some problems we might face--purelyadministrative and logistical questions such as: Whatsort of transportation do we need? Where will we behoused? How will the teams be organized? Who will headthem?" he said.The Canadians, who invited their fellow members to the

informal session, announced that they were bringing en-ough rations, equipment and mosquito netting to stay outin the field for five days. Other sources said the Poles,Hungarians and Indonesians apparently hadn't thoughtabout long-term arrangements. The Canadians also havetheir teams on two-hour alert too so they can move outon short notice.

Singleton said the team members went back to their re-spective delegations to discuss the questions and hopedto meet again in the next days "because as someone said,maybe we'd be meeting in the jungle."

The military commission is responsible for arrangingthe prisoner releases. The international commission isresponsible for examining the place where the prisonerswere last detained, obtaining POW lists and observing thereleases.

GAZETTEER.a digest of late news

SAN JUAN, P.R. (AP)--The Puerto Rico House of Repres-entatives Tuesday unanimously passed a resolution de-manding immediate withdrawal by the U.S. Navy from Cul-ebra and Viequez, two small offshore islands used by theNavy for gunnery and amphibious training. A similar mea-sure was passed last week by the commonwealth Senate.Both measures were sponsored by members of the PuertoRico Independence Party, Senator Ruben Berrios and Rep-resentative Carlos Gallisa. The legislative action isthe latest development in the continuing controversyover the Navy use of the two neighboring.islands. Cul-ebra and Vieques are located off the Puerto Rican eastcoast and form part of the Navy's Atlantic weapons rangecomplex.

SAN DIEGO, CALIF. (AP)--Three sailors were injuredyesterday in an engineroom fire aboard the destroyerU.S.S. Agerholm, a sister ship of the U.S.S. Basilonewhich was hit by a fatal explosion earlier in the week,naval authorities reported. A spokesman for the Pacificfleet cruiser-destroyer force said the accident occuredat 5:30 a.m. during crew-training exercises in the Pac-ific off San Diego. He said the fuel apparently leakedfrom a broken pipe and exploded as crewmen ignited aboiler. The three sailors were not identified. They weretaken to San Diego Naval Hospital for treatment of burns.A boiler explosion aboard the Basilone during an Atlantictraining exercise on Monday, claimed four lives and in-jured seven sailors.

WASHINGTON (AP)--President Nixon urged Congress yester-day to promptly authorize $3.559 billion in foreign aidwhich he described as essential in "continuing our eff-orts to build a lasting structure of peace." Congressadjourned last year without completing action on thePresident's foreign aid proposals, enacting instead acontinuing resolution which expires Feb. 28. "Foreignassistance plays an indispensable role in the achieve-ment of our foreign policy and national security goals,"Nixon wrote.

Michel Gauvin: portrait of a peacekeeperSAIGON (AP)--Michel Gauvin, the first chairman of Viet-

nam's international peacekeeping force, combines theold world charm of his native Quebec with a seasoneddiplomat's hard-nosed approach to peace at any time.

He is an optimist who dreams of peace, but a pragmat-ist in working to achieve it. He is outspoken in Eng-lish, French and Quebec's own colorful combination ofboth.

Almost from the moment of cease-fire 10 days ago, Am-bassador Gauvin has been the prime mover and doer onthe International Commission for Control and Supervision,the man in a hurry to get prisoner exchanges started andobservation teams into the field.

With the help of Indonesia,Canada in the person ofGauvin, persuaded Poland and Hungary, the other nationson the international body, that they could get rolling,

"There were two distinct philosophies at the beginn-ing," Gauvin said yesterday in an interview. "One wasthe technical argument that the commission could not actwithout the cooperation of all four signatories to thecease-fire agreement.

"The other was the approach of practicability: Thatregardless of the fact that the Joint Military Commiss-ion was not yet working, certain steps could be taken,like setting up regional headquarters, that would putus ahead when they were ready. It was a question ofwhether the commission could just deal with two partiesof former belligerents instead of four. Canada stood onthe side of practicability."

Gauvin declined to reveal which two countries optedfor the hard technical line. But sources inside the In-donesian contingent indicated their chief delegate, Lt.Gen. Dharsono, quickly lined up with Canada.

The Canadian ambassador's approach, steamrolling aheadwithout waiting for a secretariat, reflects Prime Min-ister Pierre Elliott Trudeau's warning that Canada'sforces are in Vietnam to "observe a peace, not watch awar" and that the troops will be withdrawn in 60 daysif there is no satisfactory progress.

Gauvin has stressed that if there is dissension in thecommission over cease-fire violations, prisoner exchang-es or any issue, Canada will file its own minority reportand tell the world why.

"We are not going to contribute to making this commiss-ion impotent for the sake of presenting a united frontor for the sake of preserving the rule of unanimity,"he said in the interview.

The ebullient diplomat's pragmatism stems from exper-ience two decades ago with the previous InternationalControl Commission. It bogged down in political standoffsover technicalities and procedures and ultimately becametotally ineffectual.

But with the current observer teams in place in allseven regional headquarters and gradually fanning out in-to the countryside, he remained optimistic about changesfor success this time.

On leave from his post as Canada's ambassador to Greece,

the 53-year-old Gauvin has taken up residence in an oldFrench villa in Saigon's Chinese quarter of Cholon. Hesat for the interview amid empty bookcases, tall Chin-ese vases and a handsome portrait of the queen of Eng-land, reflecting on his part in other peacekeepingmissions around the world.

Guavin's thoughts went back to the Congo, 1964, whenhe helped evacuate Canadians from Stanleyville and firstmet Bogdan Wasileswke, his Polish counterpart on thepresent Vietnam commission.

Gauvin also remembered the 1965 civil war in theDominican Republic, when he first encountered EllsworthBunker, now U.S. ambassador to Vietnait, then on a spec-ial mission for President Lyndon B. Johnson. The otherday, as he presented his credentials, they remindedeach other "how much more complex is the Vietnamesesituation."Mostly, his memories go back to when he spent six

weeks in Hanoi and nearly a year in Saigon with theold control commission. Saigon has changed a good dealsince then, the Hondas taking over from the bicycles andFrench influence giving away to American.

"The old commission worked in English but communicatedin French," he reminisced. "Now the basic language ofthe commission is English, even though we have notformally agreed on it and the Polish delegate went toschool in France and is fluent in the language."

Despite the roar of traffic and the G.I. influence,Gauvin 18 years later has found little difference inthe Vietnamese people: "I like them very much. Theyare resilient. Ihey have existed for a thousand yearsas a nation under all kinds of invasions and foreigninfluences and have remained themselves. Can you saythe same for any country in Europe?"

Gauvin is emphatic in saying his role, on behalf ofCanada, is different from peacekeeping missions in theCongo, the Middle East, the Dominican Republic or Cy-prus.

"We are not here to enforce a peace. This is an un-armed force, except for the officers' sidearms," hesaid, pounding the table. "We are here to observe theimplementation of the cease-fire agreed to by the foursignatories. We are here to mediate if required, toassist whenever we can. It is not the same as Cyprusor the Congo."

Do seasoned diplomats involved in the everyday work-ings of peace ever lose their tempers?Halting his table pounding in midair, Gauvin consid-

ered the question. *I hope I never lose my temper," hesaid with gathering cala. Up to now I have had no rea-son even to raise my voice in the commission sessions."

Looking back on how he got into the peace business,his thoughts drifted to World War II, when he came a-shore on a Normandy Beach on D-Day with a brent gun andmortar unit. A little over a month later, he was hitin the leg by shrapnel and then evacuated to England.

The memories of fighting led to reflections on thebiblical promise: "Blessed are the peacemakers, for theyshall be called the children of God."

Dancer puts frosting on cakeSAN JOSE, CALIF. (AP)--A dancer who loves to surprise people has carved

out a new career for herself by jumping out of cakes at parties.Brandy--who uses the jingle name professionally--will perform wearing any

costume you like--or none at all. She'll even bring her own cake--a two-tiered creation of white papier mache and red plastic flowers.

The 32-year-old brunette who has worked as a clerk and on an assemblyline said she has met with success since she started popping out of pastrysix months ago. "Partly because of the nostalgia craze, people want to havethe glamor of movies right there in front of them," she said. "Not too manypeople can produce a cake and a girl to pop out of it."

Brandy, who charges $35 a performance, said that "jumping out of a cakeis harder than you might think.

"First they wheel you into the dining room, and it's a pretty rocky rideover the doorsteps. Then you have to scrunch down inside with your head onyour knees and your feet braced and wait two or three minutes until every-one's through singing and then right at the end I go--blast--and pop out."

Rotary-engine

Japanese car

gains attentionNEW YORK (AP)--A Japanese car bas-

ed on a German's invention may besetting the stage for an Americanautomotive revolution.

It's called the Mazda--introduced,by stages, during the last two yearsacross most of the United States--andits trump card is a rotary combustionengine developed from the originalbuilt by Dr. Felix Wankel in Germanyin 1957.

For the present Mazda's manufact-urer, Toyo Kogyo, has no major rot-ary-engine rivals in America. Butthere are firm indications it will getsome heavy competition before long.General Motors, biggest of the

auto makers, has paid several install-ments of a $50-million fee for theright to produce Wankel engines andhas said it may begin offering themas a limited-quantity option on its1975 model Vegas.

G.M. won't discuss its plans beyondthat. One industry observer who hasfollowed the Wankel's progress close-ly, however, predicts G.M. will bemarketing a new Wankel-powered frontwheel drive compact by 1976, produc-ing about 600,000 units the first year.

Yesterday American Motors formallyinjected its name into the Wankelpicture. The company saidit would bepermitted to make and sell rotaryengines under a license arrangementwith Curtiss-Wright Corp.

Chairman Roy D. Chapin Jr. toldthe company's annual meeting in De-troit that American Motors believesthe rotary engine will "play an im-portant role as a power plant forcars and trucks of the future."

No other major U.S. company hasequaled G.M.'s commitment so far,but Mazda counts 21 car makers world-wide now at work on Wankel develop-ment.

While many observers say there arestill too many "ifs" in the pictureto draw a long-range conclusion, thereare some who predict that the Wankelwill have essentially replaced thetraditional piston engine by theearly 1980s.

The "Las Lobitas" (female wolves) are on top of the league at this pointwith an almost perfect 8-1 record, most assuredly due to Coach Wolf'spowerhouse of hitters. Cathy Baughman heads the list, with Bunny Wimpy,Joyce Wolfe and Debbie Parsons in last year'sgood form.

Not to far behind in second place is Ponder's Wonders. Coach Bill Pond-ers' players may not be what they say they are, but a 6-3 record is prettyclose. It also keeps them near first with hopes of finishing the seasonin "wonderful" fashion.With Lyn Ponder, Pat Manese, Lillian Augenfeld and Liz Dwyer firing the

field up, they could challenge for first position.

Hank Stence's first team, the D-Jets, has shapedtogether into a finelooking team, no pun intended, but haven't been able to keep it togetherin the late innings. With Lenny Krall's help, and more from his wifeRachael, the team has maintained it's composure with a 3-6 record.Then there's the Cookies, probably the youngest team out on the field,

led by Bob Pugh and Gary Baughman. With an 1-8 record, this league hasproven the old adage, age before beauty.

* Coach loses weight during each game

(AP)--For some reason, possiblybecause, they're somewhat more vis-ible, basketball coaches seem tosuffer more than their counterpartsin football and baseball.Roy Rubin, who was fired two weeks

ago as coach of the Philadelphia76ers of the National BasketballAssociation, suffered the extent oflosing 45 pounds. He did it in 105days as coach. There were 47 losinggames in that time, which means heaveraged close to a pound a game.

Since the 76ers only won four gameswith Rubin as coach, he had littlechance to gain any weight back.

Roy Rubin. slim and trim Rubin was replaced as coach byone of his players, Kevin Loughery.who hasn't had much time to loseweight so far.

Chaparrals sold; will play in armory

(UPI)--The Dallas Chaparrals' franchise has been sold to a New Jerseysyndicate. The team will eventually play in a sports complex to be builtin East Rutherford, New Jersey. The New York Giants football team and arace track also are planned for the new enterprise. Until the complex isbuilt, the Chaps starting next season will play in the Jersey City armory.

Well, now that the Jamaican AllStars have left Guantanamo Bay andtaken the-1972-73 Inter-CommandBasketball season with them an 0-3record, let's take a look at what'shappening in Inter-Command Volleyball.A team to talk about would be last

Navy cuts back on food qualityby JO3 Stacie Lawrence

Certain quality items served in the Flagship Mess will no longer beserved in an effort to save money.

The change, which affects all Navy mess halls, came out in a recentmessage from the CNO which said the food cut is due to a large increaseof 20 percent in food costs to the Navy.

"Although action has been initiated to ensure adeqaute monetary all-owances for general mess operations, additional action is required toreduce expenditure of MPN funds for subsistence," the message states.As well as cutting certain items from their menus, Navy mess halls

must now substitute low cost items for high cost items.

Not just the Navy is affected by high costs. The Marine Corps alsohas its problems with allowances for mess operations. Marine mess hallsare starting a new system of beef purchasing which the Navy has alsostarted.At Camp Bulkeley, as well as at the Flagship Mess, the galleys are

purchasing specific cuts of beef, rather than the whole steer. Thisway every cut is eaten, whereas with the old system of buying the wholesteer, every part of it must be used whether needed or not.

The items that will be cut from the Flagship Mess are: minute steaks,frozen beef tenderloins, lamb chops, Canadian bacon and pork spareribs,flounder, haddock fillets, fresh and frozen lobster, oysters, salmonsteaks, scallops and raw peeled shrimp. Other items are: frozen aspara-gus, fresh cauliflower, frozen corn-on-the-cob, sweet peppers, onionrings, frozen raspberries, mixed nuts, canned blueberrypie filling, fro-zen pizzas, duck, and rabbit. There will be no more ice cream sand-whiches, cones, bars and ices on a stick. Still other items are: bone-less pork loin and pork slices, canned apricot and commercial bakeryproducts. Also cooks will start using dry milk for baking.
