He said his CSA superior in Washington authorized his participation in a manpower conference at Michigan State University on April 4-5. He said he stayed on in the Battle Creek area because "I was concerned that the potential conflict of interest situation could create a problem for the CAA board of directors." Cossingham said he talked with WMU officials on April 9, returned to Washington for three days, and then returned for the April 16 CAA board meeting and the special board meeting last Friday. After the April 16 board meeting, he said, "I called Bob (Robert Smith (CSA assistant director for community action) and he gave me permission to stay here until we get this thing (Continued from B-l) I'll never teach my courses in the same way again." Asked if he wanted to continue as executive director of the agency, Chandler said: "No, I wouldn't want to continue (after July 15). I'm an academic person." He said there was no conflict of interest because he did not do the study and handle the job of interim director simultaneously. "The conflict of interest issue is a bogus issue, a false issue," he said.

Chandler said he is being paid $14,532 for six months' work as interim director of CAA. He said his contract with the CAA board included the arrangement that he be paid at the same rate as Cos-singham was paid, about $27,000 annually, and that Cossingham's fringe benefits be translated into salary. He said he also was given the use of a CAA car and a credit card for gasoline. Cossingham has been staying in the He said fees charged for delinquent property taxes traditionally cover bond interest expenses.

When Maria first moved in with and later married Kazim Mohammed, she took the children with her.

Caban initially saw the children on weekends, but then the Mohammeds filed an adoption petition. Caban filed his own petition. The local judge, saying he found no fault with either set of parents, ruled it was in the children's best interests to be adopted by the Mohammeds, meaning Caban had no rights to the children. In its decision Tuesday, the Supreme Court ruled that was a form of unconstitutional sex discrimination against men. In other decisions: The court upheld a Georgia law that allows mothers of illegitimate children, but not fathers, to sue for the child's wrongful death.

The court struck down a North Carolina Supreme Court ruling that had tightened safeguards to the rights of criminal suspects to remain silent or get help from a lawyer during police questioning. The justices voted 6-3 that police may question suspects who do not "explicitly" give up their so-called "Miranda" rights. The firing of the typesetter for allegedly leaking information to an ABC News reporter followed a heated confrontation in Burger's chambers, the AP was told. WASHINGTON (AP) Abdiel Caban may get a chance to see again his son and his daughter. The New York man's hopes to renew contact with his children were kept alive Tuesday by a Supreme Court decision that struck down a state law barring fathers of children born out of wedlock from contesting their offspring's adoption.

In the 5-4 ruling, the justices said fathers who have neither abandoned their illegitimate children nor been proved unfit have a legal right to protect their parental rights. The decision could have broad ramifications as more men and women live together without being married and the number of births out of wedlock increases. The Census Bureau reported that in 1975 nearly a half-million children were born out of wedlock. And in a related development, reports last week that gave premature word of Supreme Court decisions quickly led Chief Justice Warren E. Burger to fire a typesetter from his job in the court's print shop, The Associated Press has learned.

The case of Abdiel Caban and Maria Acevedo was the story of a love affair gone sour and the couple fighting for rights to their children. While the couple lived together, they had two children. But the relationship II api txcerr seek whk CIGAH6TTES AND OTHER KROGER SUGAR 5 (o)(oV COUPONS WITH PUS CHASf LWT1 OumCMfNTS MOUMCMfNTS Court spokesman Barrett McGurn refused to verify the firing or to comment on whether the court's investigation into the apparent leaks has ended. But the fired printer, John Tucci, who denied Burger's accusations, confirmed his firing. Tucci works for the Government Printing Office, not the Supreme Court, and his status at the GPO was uncertain.

Leaks about Supreme Court deliberations are extremely rare, and no one is believed to have been fired in any such previous incidents. ABC News reported accurately on its nationally televised evening news program April 16 that Justice Byron R. White would speak for the court in an important libel law ruling adverse to the news media. Two days later, the court announced its ruling that public figures suing for libel may inquire into a journalist's "state of mind" and the editorial process that led to the allegedly libelous statement. ABC also reported that Burger would speak for the court in a decision dealing with the rights of prisoners being considered for parole.

That decision has not yet been made public.

Strike forces tenants to run own buildings NEW YORK AP) From Park Avenue to the outer reaches of Brooklyn and Queens, more than a million apartment dwellers were without regular elevator operators, doormen, and garbage collectors today in the second day of a strike of 25,000 building workers.

Tenants of many high-rise apartment houses organized themselves into security squads, drawing up shifts for elevator duty and bringing down their own trash as the men who normally do these jobs were out on the sidewalk, hoisting picket signs. Many had gone through the same thing for 17 days three years ago and had used the same strategies for survival then. "They're doing their thing. They're into strike," said Wallace Martin, superintendent of 565 Park Avenue near 62nd Street. Martin paused in the conversation to assure a woman tenant that when Rachel, her cook, arrived, she would be allowed past the new security guard posted at the entrance.

Qeorge Sutherland, building manager of 580 Park, said that he corporate executives who pay up to $2,400 a month maintenance on co-ops for which they may have paid up to $250,000 might enjoy playing at being elevator operators for a few days. The strike was called against 3,000 buildings in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens and Staten island Tuesday after lengthy negotiations broke down, mainly over union demands for job security. The union is demanding a $50 increase over the current $220 weekly pay in a one-year contract, while the landlords have offered $35 more a week over a three-year contract. 28'.
