MOSCOW (AP) Henry Kissinger said today his talks with Soviet leaders had been "very cordial," but there would have to be more exchanges before the date of Communist party chief Leonid Brezhnev's visit to the United States is announced. President Nixon's chief adviser on foreign policy told newsmen as he left for London, "We had very cordial talks. We covered all the subjects we came to The talks were very satisfactory." Asked about the Brezhnev visit, which has been expected in late June, Kissinger said, "We have to have some more exchanges before we announce the date." Kissinger spent most of his six-day visit in talks with Brezhnev and other officials in a hideaway at Zavidovo, 60 miles north of Moscow. No details of the talks were disclosed by American or So- Shot Clinic Set The next immunization clinic for school and preschool children in outlying areas of Brown County will be from 10 to 10:45 a.m. next Monday at Wrightstown Elementary School.

The clinic rotates from villages to the Brown County Courthouse, recessing for the summer after a June 11 clinic at the courthouse. Bridge Closing The Walnut Street bridge will be closed from 6 a.m. to noon Sunday to finish cleaning the bridge. The Ashwaubenon Town Board, on a 2-1 vote, approved the rezonlng of two acres of land on the northwest comer of Ridge and Valley View roads Tuesday night to allow for construction of a new Kroll's Restaurant.

The action came after an hour-long public hearing during which expressions of support for 'tfie rezoning were about equally balanced with opposition. Town Chairman John Mon-fort and Sup. Jerome Van Sis-tine voted in favor of zoning the property general business. Sup. Ted Pamperin, who lives in the area of the proposed restaurant, voted against it.

Most of those opposing the rezoning were residents of True Lane which runs along the western edge of the property. Their main concern was that the restaurant would generate a noise problem In the neighborhood during the late evening and early morning hours. But Richard Steinbrinck, an attorney representing the Kroll family, noted that less favorable development, including a beer bar, would be possible under Its current local business zoning classification. A number of other town residents testified that they regularly ate at the Kroll's downtown restaurant, found it to be a clean, orderly, well-run establishment which appealed to family dining and could foresee no special problems. Thomas J.

Kitslaar, appearing on behalf of the current owners of the property, said the only entrances to the restaurant parking lot would be on Ridge and Valley View roads. He said the western edge of the property, facing residential True Lane, would be Sentence 2 For Bribery AtMenasha OSHKOSH (AP) The Share Corp. of Brookfield and one of its salesmen were found guilty today of two counts of bribing a purchasing agent in Menasha. The convictions followed pleas of no contest by salesman Edward Liermann Jr. on his own behalf, and the firm's president, Paul Des Jardins, on behalf of the company.

Liermann was sentenced by Winnebago County Court Judge James Sitter to 45 days in jail and two years probation, and fined $2,000. The company was fined $2,000 for the bribery and an additional $6,000 under a state public nuisance claim. Liermann had been accused of attempting to bribe Alfred Voelker, bookkeeper at the Menasha municipal garage, to accept 10 per cent kickbacks for ordering chemicals from Share. Circuit Court Judge William Crane also issued an order that Share refrain from bribery in the future, which would allow civil contempt charges to be brought against Share and a fine to be levied against it by a judge without a trial. The charges stemmed from a John Doe investigation being conducted by Crane at Oshkosh into alleged bribery of public officials.

It has thus far resulted in convictions of three public employes, two salesmen and two firms. AustinStraubel Certified for Airline Service Austin Straubel Field has been certified to continue serving scheduled airlines. Robert Ziegler, deputy director of the Federal Aviation Agency's Great Lakes Region, presented an operating certifi-c a to Herbert Sanders, chairman of the Brown County Airport Committee, and Joseph Liebergen. airport director, in a ceremony at the airport today. The development, Ziegler said," means the county has met FAA safety and security requirements for certification and will be able to continue serving North Central airlines after May 20 when FAA operating certificates are being required for the first time.

He said he recognized that some safety requirements such as purchase of a new fire truck and additional manpower to operate it have not actually been implemented, but he said the FAA is convinced that steps are being taken toward Implementation of the viet officials or by Kissinger today. He said on his arrival last week he hoped to review Soviet-American relations and an agenda- for Brezhnev's meeting with Nixon in Washington. It was believed that he and Brezhnev dealt with the strategic arms limitation talks (SALT), the negotiations for mutual reduction of forces in Europe, and trade and economic cooperation between the Soviet Union and the United States. It was also possible that Kissinger discussed the Soviet restrictions on Jewish emigration to Israel, as Jewish leaders in Moscow hoped he would. After four days of intensive discussions with Brezhnev and his chief foreign policy advisers, Kissinger was his usual smiling, self-confident self.

To one reporter who asked if he had "settled Vietnam," Kissinger replied, "We settled everything." Then he laughed. It was apparent from his brief remarks that everything had not been settled. He gave no indication how much progress had been made on the major issues involving the two superpowers. "I won't say any more until I have reported to the President," Kissinger told reporters. There was certainly ample time for Kissinger, Brezhnev and Foreign Minister Andrei A.

Gromyko to "review" bilateral questions. The White House emissary was closeted with Brezhnev Saturday, Sunday, Monday and possibly Tuesday. Diplomats in Moscow couldn't remember a precedent for this kind of personal attention given by the top Soviet official to an emissary of a capitalist government. tions for proper tooth care, including frequent brushing, use of dental floss and application of fluorides. "We realize it is not realistic to exppect children to eliminate all sweets from their diets," the report said.

Delegates objected to a leg-1 1 a i bill which would create a state commission to supervise state dental care. The proposed commission, a report said, would simply duplicate existing bureaucratic supervision and would in-t "possible political overtones." MADISON A Democratic majteeeeirm today as the Assembly rejected a Republican amendment to continue to operate indefinitely the state reformatory in Green Bay. The reformatory was to be phased out under Gov. Patrick Lucey's proposalh Defeat of the amendment to the state budget bill, which also included two other state institutions, was by a margin of 53-44. The suggested budget change would also have maintained in service Central State Hospital at Waupun, where criminally insane patients are confined, and the State Children's Home at Sparta in western Wisconsin.

Author of the amendment to continue the operation of the institutions was Rep. John Go-wer, Green Bay Republican. When Rep. Cletus Van-derperren, rural Green Bay Democrat, protested that Democrats had not been in- vited as authors of the effort to continue the institutions, the Assembly approved a Republican request to add Van-derperren's name to the amendment. As Lucey's budget now stands, the reformatory would be continued in operation for an unspecified time with a maximum population of 300, or about half of its capacity.

Vanderperren was the sponsor of that change that was accepted by the legislature's finance committee as it revised in some details the original Lucey document. As the budget bill now stands, the reformatory would continue on a reduced population as long as the total of inmates in maximum security Ring, Cash Taken in Home Burglary Here The theft of a diamond ring valued at $400 and about $30 and cash from the Curtis Schoen residence, 1825 Shawano Tuesday night is being investigated by city police.

The Assembly continued to debate a long-schedule of Re-publican amendments, including another that would ask for operation of the reformatory indefinitely without reference to the two other institutions Lucey wants to close. Gower said the trend of commitments by the courts indicate that the state maximum security confinement institutions will be crowded during the next two years, in contradiction to the claims of Lucey and his advisors that a lower population of offenders provides an opportunity for the state to reform what he calls an archaic prison system.

A Republican-sponsored bill aimed at keeping the Reformatory open by requiring that all male offenders between 16 and 25 be sent to the institution before being placed anywhere else was delayed in the state Senate by procedural maneuvering. The bill was stalled Tuesday when State Sen. Thomas Petri, Fond du Lac, a co-sponsor, called for an appeal to Lt. Gov. Martin Schreiber's ruling that the bill must contain a fiscal note, that 'is stating what it will cost.

Two weeks ago it was ruled no fiscal note was necessary. but Tuesday Schreiber said the cost statement would be necessaary.

Sterr President-Elect Of State Dental Group Children's Service Unit Honors Board Members MILWAUKEE (AP) Schools jeopardize students' dental health when they yield to youngsters' demands for soft drinks and candy in the cafeteria, the Wisconsin Dental Society said Tuesday. "Students feel they can eat anything they want, but they just do not know the facts;" Dr. Joseph M. Doherty remarked during the society's annual meeting. "Schools are being bombarded by sweets," he said.

"Everytime there is a birthday, someone brings sweets to school." Convention delegates, citing the ability of sugar to stimulate tooth decay, approved a report which said it is folly "for schools to teach the need for reducing sugar intake while at the same time making candy and sweetened beverages available in the lunchroom or through dispensing machines." "When you see machines dispensing sweets, you know something is wrong in their educational efforts," Dr. M. C. Arra said. Arra is chief of the state Di-vision of Health's Dental Health, Section.

Doherty is his deputy. A typical American, the U.S. Argiculture Department reports, consumes 120 pounds of sugar and sweetener annually, a 40 per cent consumption increase since 1940.
