Opponents of the plan said it could create "all sorts of problems." "Can you see youngsters coming into high school with a six- pack?" asked Rep. Joseph Zeller, D-Lehigh. "They could sit there and get all drunked up." The House voted 113-69 to add an amendment to extend the drinking hours in restaurants on Sunday from 10 p.m. to midnight.

This is enough to confirm that the Communists' intention is not to restore peace by a temperate solution." He praised the military for recapturing most of the territory taken by the Communists in the spring offensive in 1972.

Cmdr. Don Disney, com mander of the Research and Development we of San Dle had assured his committee that the doctrines of executive privilege and the lawyer-client relationship would not be involved in Dean's testimony.

Both Brezhnev and Nixon are hopeful of convincing Congress to grant most-favored nation status to the Soviet Union, a move that would put Russia on the same footing as virtually all other U.S. trading partners and an essential step in expanding trade between the two nations. But a move is under way in the Senate to bar this concession until the Soviets allow Jews to emigrate freely. In an effort to counter this, Brezhnev invited members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee for lunch today at Blair House the guest residence across Pennsylvania Avenue from the White House. His spokesman, Leonid Zamyatin, bristled at suggestions that the party boss would attempt to lobby Congress.

Harbert Fineman, Philadel. phia, introduced a bill in the House Monday aimed at getting Philadelphia full state aid despite the seven-week teachers strike. Under present state law, a school district can lose state aid if it is not open for a full 180-day school year. Fineman's bill, supported by nine other Philadelphia lawmakers, would give a school district the full amount of state aid if it faces "economic hardship" if the aid is cut.

Bit the feds are withholding the money, Swenson says, because the city hasn't told them the exact plan. The city is holding back on its final plan because the federal government hasn't developed its restrictions. "It's bureaucracy, and it's frustrating," Swenson said. The flood forced 1,200 people from their homes here, and Swenson says about 270 people are still living in the federal government's emergency mobile flood housing. Swenson says he is optimistic the city will eventually get $24 million from the state and federal governments for its flood renovation programs.
