He finally did so at 8 p.m., but left a representative from attorney's law firm until he could return Saturday morning. The Arizona Corporation Commission fired Bushnell Friday, a day after the Arizona Supreme Court upheld a lower court decision that Bushnell had a conflict of interest when he acquired a loan from an insurance company under his jurisdiction. When Bushnell refused to leave, George Livermore, who was named by the commission to temporarily act as director, ordered the locks on the office changed. According to Bushnell's attorney, John Savoy, Livermore then hired a guard from a private detective agency to guard the door.

1) Middle East Plans Split U.N. Council UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (AP) The 10 nonperma-nenl members of the Security Council split Friday night over two different proposals for a U.N. special representative to go to the Middle East and seek a settlement of the Israel i-Arab war of last June. The split was apparent after a private, informal meeting of their representatives that lasted 3 hours and 25 minutes.

The council president for October, Japanese Ambassador Senjin Tsuruoka, told reporters two proposals were put on the table and the group would meet again at 11 a.m. EDT Monday to discuss them. Danish Foreign Minister Hans Tabor added that Canada and Denmark had sub-, mitted one of the proposals and six other countries the other. He withheld details. Each proposal was intended to become the basis of a resolution for the council to adopt some time next week.

ded: "I am not sure what Egypt is up to." In Cairo, a close confidante of President Gamal Abdel Nasser wrote in the semiofficial newspaper Al Ahram that the Arabs gained a psychological advantage by sinking the Elath. Don't Forget To Set Clocks Back An Hour CHICAGO (AP) That hour of time that most states lost the last Sunday in April when clocks were turned ahead will be repossessed Sunday when Standard Time is re Hundreds of Egyptians cheered I and waved flags. Officers and men on the destroyer returned the welcome with salutes and martial music. To the west, two submarines and a destroyer sailed into Alexandria to a tumultuous welcome by whistling tugs and cheers from those aboard fishing boats. The Cairo press described the arrival of the Soviet warships as a "courtesy call." But it was noted that the Russians, who first put into port in July, returned several units Sept, 4 after a brief Israeli air raid on Port Said.

Now the sinking of the Israeli destroyer Elath by Egyptian missiles Oct. 21 and the fierce Israeli-Egyptian cannonading across the southern end of the Suez Canal Tuesday again has brought the situation to a dangerous stage. The arrival of the warships was accompanied by an attack op Israel by the Soviet government newspaper Izvestia in Moscow. It declared "any minute the sparks of the old fire can burst into raging flames." Izvestia accused Israeli lead ers of "criminally playing with peace and the destiny of their own country" and charged they were encouraged by the U.S. decision this week to send some arms to Israel.

Izvestia again demanded that Israel surender all the Arab territory it conquered in the June 5-10 war with Egypt, Jor dan and Syria. On the east bank of the Suez Canal, an Israel colonel commanding forces opposite the Port of Suez asserted that Algerian, Kuwaiti and Sudanese sol diers had joined Egyptians in a gradual buildup on the west bank. The colonel said the uniforms of Algeria, Kuwait and Sudan had been identified. He de clared thousands of Arab soldiers, equipped with tanks and artillery, were arrayed along the 107-mile canal and that a sizable force was within 12 miles of the port of Suez.

A Russian correspondent said in a Hanoi dispatch published by the Soviet government newspaper Izvestia that the American raids since Tuesday have been "the heaviest of the entire war." Hanoi's official Vietnam News Agency said in a broadcast dispatch that Lt. Cmdr. John Sydney McCain and Lt. J.G. Charles Donald Rice were captured after raids Thursday.

It gave no further information on Rice, but said McCain para chuted into a Hanoi lake after a surface-to-air missile blasted his jet. Lt. Cmdr. John S. McCain III, a Navy Skyhawk pilot, is the son of Adm.

While spokesmen in Saigon declined confirmation, the admiral said at his London headquarters that the Pentagon had notified him his son was missing over North Vietnam.

The men said the blood was their own. They issued a statement saying, "We shed our blood willingly and gratefully in what we hope is a sacrificial and constructive act." All four were arrested by the FBI on authorization of U.S. Attorney Stephen Sachs and will have a preliminary hearing Monday. Two were until then on personal bonds of $1,000. The other two, including the priest, the Rev.

Philip Berrigan, refused to sign the bonds and were taken to the federal section of the city jail for the weekend. Berrigan, who has been involved in a number of controversies because of his stands on civil rights and Vietnam, said, when asked the source of the blood, "suffice to say that it is our own." Held in the Baltimore City Jail with Berrigan, pending the hearing Monday, was Thomas Lewis, an art teacher. The two released were the Rev. James Mengelof of the United Church ot Christ and David Eberhardt, secretary of the Baltimore In-terfaith Peace Mission to which all four belong.

Nixon, holding a news conference at the same time in another hotel, said: "I have no understandings or agreements with any potential candidates. I will make Both men's remarks were prompted by a NBC News report that Reagan would support Nixon in the Nebraska, New Hampshire and Wisconsin primaries. NBC correspondent Nancy Dickerson, in Washington, said that, "If Nixon is beaten fair and square," his support would go to Reagan.

Reagan, who later addressed 1,800 members of the Illinois State Chamber of Commerce, told the newsmen that "the only understanding is that I told Richard Nixon that I was not a candidate." Reagan said he would be the favorite son of the California Republicans for "political pu-poses only." Nixon, who is expected to announce in January his decision about 1968, said that if he decides to run for the nomination he would enter several primary elections.
