(AP Wire photo) Doctor Calls Cocktail Lounge More Dangerous Than LSD WASHINGTON (AP) Dr. Timothy Leary, a pioneer experimenter with the drug LSD, says there is more danger in a cocktail lounge than in the hallucinogenic drug. Leary, a former Harvard Uni- versity lecturer, acknowledged the hazards of LSD's improper use at a Senate hearing Friday, but suggested strict licensing be established so responsible adults could use the drug for "spiritual growth, pursuit of knowl- Appearing before the Senate subcommittee on juvenile delinquency, Leary said the use of LSD is growing out of control and estimated that "one-third of our college students are experi- menting with this drug." Heavy use of the drug by young people has provoked a crisis, he said, but he called it a "crisis of challenge" rather than of peril. And he suggested that univer- Youth Who Tattooed Girl Didn 't Think She 'd Die By KAROL STONGER INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.

(AP) A 15-year-old boy said he thought nothing of tattooing and branding Sylvia Likens because he had no idea she would die. The testimony Friday ended the fourth week of the murder trial of Richard D. Hobbs and four others accused in the torture slaying of Miss Likens, 16. The state contends she was beaten, branded, burned and otherwise abused for two weeks before she died last Oct. 26.

The girl was staying in the home of Gertrude Baniszewski while her parents operated a Building At Club Blasted EDWARDSVILLE A small block building on the Onized Club grounds in Godfrey was rocked by an explosion Friday, apparently after some youngsters had unknowingly left a gas oven on, the Madison County sheriff's office reported. The explosion raised the roof about a foot and blew out the south wall. An employe at the club grounds said the building will have to be rebuilt. Caretaker Hubert Aliens- worth discovered the badly damaged building when he arrived for work at 8 a.m. Friday.

Allensworth had left the premises at 4 p.m. Friday. The sheriff's office said the burner and oven knobs on the oven had been turned on. Sheriff Barney Fraundorf theorized that gas fumes filled the room and were ignited by a spark from the motor of a soda machine which was in operation. "I think some kids probably got in the building Thursday and turned the oven on without knowing better." Fraundorf said.

Mills Says Chairman, Not LBJ Calls Shots By JOHN BECKLER WASHINGTON (AP)-The lotion that Congress is a "rub- stamp" for President Johnon has been rudely challenged one of the real rulers of Capol Hill-Rep. Wilbur D. Mills. Mills, Arkansas Democrat who is chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, helved two administration proposals last week, illustrating a act that the public sometimes orgets.

In Congress, the chairmen of he committees call the shots, iot the President. Mills put aside administration that would have liberalized rade with Communist nations Eastern Europe and re- amped state unemployment insurance systems. "I am not for it," he said, in announcing he would not even introduce the trade bill. "Federal standards are out," he said in disclosing that his committee had cut the heart out of the administration's unemployment insurance bill and would write a new one following suggestions made by the states. White House press secretary 301 D.

Movers, asked Friday or Johnson's reaction to Mills' Sit-In at Chicago Is Ended decision not to introduce the rade bill, said the President itill hopes Congress will act as oon as possible on the measure. Another illustration of a chairman's power was fur- lished recently by Rep. Adam Ilayton Powell, when le refused to call up an admin- stration-backed bill already ap- iroved by his Education and jabor Committee that would permit on-site picketing by con- truction unions. Powell's stand demonstrated hat a determined chairman can even override the speaker of the louse. Speaker John W.

McCormack, is reported to be strongly committed to passage of the bill. But unless Pow- 11 changes his mind, there will be no situs picketing bill this ear. Chairman get their broad from the House rules, )Ut power must be wielded bold- to be effective. And they have have the support of a major- ty of their committee members. Mills commands support In he Ways and Means Committee through a brilliant combination of political skill, legislative acumen and knowledge of his subject.

Powell plays rough. "Remember, I have to sign your travel vouchers," he tells members repeatedly to forestall any attempts to override him. Some chairmen make alliances to command a majority. But others fail to use the power and become captives of more aggressive junior members who do. By LAWRENCE KNUTSON CHICAGO (AP) A loud knocking on the door of University of Chicago President George W.

Beadle's home marked the formal end of mass student demonstration against the school's policy supplying information to draft boards. But President Beadle was not home Friday night to receive the message, so a declaration outlining the students' was slipped under his fron door. Moments earlier, most of the 350 students who had occupied administra filed across the darkened campus, blending freedom songs with the chimes of the university carillon. They left behind a token force of 25 protestors to maintain a and controlled the lion building since hot dog concession at carnivals. The other defendants are Mrs.

Baniszewski, 37; two of her seven children, Paula, 18, and John, 13, and another neighbor boy, Coy Hubbard, also 15. Another Baniszewski daughter, Stephanie, 15, was charged in the killing and was granted a separate trial. Hobbs, first defendant to admit inflicting any of the 150 wounds on Sylvia's body, said he tattooed the girl because "Gertrude told me to do those things on her abdomen." The words, "I am a prostitute and proud of it" were tattooed on the victim. Hobbs could give no reason for branding a figure 3 on her chest. He testified Mrs.

Baniszewski started the tattoo with a needle, then "she said she was getting sick so she handed me the needle and told me to finish it." Hobbs said the only other Injuries he inflicted on Sylvia were striking her chest with his hand "maybe four or five times" while he tattooed her because "she'd flinch a little." The defendant said he returned to the Baniszewski home the night Sylvia died, three days after the tattooing. "Gertrude was crying," he said. "She was scared." He said Sylvia "was still I got down beside her and gave her mouth- to-mouth resuscitation. I noticed her skin was cold so I thought a warm bath might help some." The youth said that while Stephanie and John gave Sylvia a bath he took Mrs. Baniszewski downstairs "because she was too frantic." In cross examining Hobbs, deputy prosecutor LeRoy K.

New asked whether Hobbs wasn't trying to kill Sylvia rather than give her artificial respiration. "You were afraid you'd be caught up with, weren't you?" New asked. "You kept your weight on her so she couldn't sreathe, didn't you? You were tromping on her." 'No sir," Hobbs replied. Hershey Talk At Belleville EDWARDSVILLE-Lt. General Lewis B.
