Page2A I Old, New Displays Featured The ancient Oriental opposes the modern Western in two art exhibits on display through Friday at the North Texas Stale University Library. The first floor exhibits are located East (the Oriental) and West (the modern) of the library entrance. Among the Oriental artifacts, donated for the exhibit by the North Texas State Museum, are 'six-inch high red lacquer wood carvings of lions around a red lacquer wood carved plate depicting a peasant scene. Microscopic ivory elephants, so tiny they look like flakes of dust, march across a velvet cushion. Books of Chinese history and folklore are opened among the figurines.

A teak headrest, carved out of one piece of wood, is displayed above several coolie pipes with jade mouthpieces, used to smoke opium. Tiny slippers, for Chinese ladies with wrapped feet, are near figurines of Chinese fishermen in costume. The exhibit was arranged by Dr. Barbara Butler of the North Texas Museum. The modern display is the Senior Art Exhibition, the second in what John W.

Brester, assistant central services librarian, said is expected to be a continuing program of art exhibits in the library by NTSU art students and faculty. The theme of the Senior Art exhibit is art education and advertising art. Jim Hamilton, a Denton senior, has a widely varied display, ranging from psychedelic acrylic and felt tip pen sketches to black and white photographs and a finely sketched and dignified brochure. The felt tip pen sketches include a brightly colored advertising for golf or golf products. Immediately above golf ad is a digni- iied brochure for the NTSU choir in a delicate black and vhite sketch.

Next to it is a 3arge, bright, orange poster with a motorcyclist in appar- ent motion, advertising Hondas. His black and white photo- graphs include one of a r.ude young girl seated on a chair and another of a young man in hunting gear and Indian hat seated on a stool in a forest, his rifle propped beside him. Hamilton also designed gift boxes in unusual shapes and psychedelic colors as well as a photographic ad resembling a shadow box lined with pictures. Robert Houston, a senior from Waco, also displayed a varied talent ranging from delicate and heavy jewlery to an unnamed acrylic and sketches of robust nudes. Getting His Goat lift Little Mark Frerck, 6, of Houston climbed to what he thought was a safe spot while watching goats at Houston's Busch Gardens Tuesday, only to have this kid follow him to his perch.

Henslev. July 4 In Denton Safe, If Not Sane Except for those who used a fifth, the fourth was a fairly safe holiday in Denton. It was safe, but not completely sane. For something like holiday spirit or even fate seemed to hover over the Denton area Tuesday. For instance, officers who periodically make raids and bring marijuana to the police station found marijuana being brought to them, A startled service station attendant was cleaning a rest room and there found the narcotic stashed.

He at once reported it to the Police Department, where it was tagged and locked up. Then there was the man who lost his concrete mixer. It is now in the police department's stolen files and officers are on the lookout. But the Dentonite who will remember July 4 the longest MOTOROLA Quazar RINEY'S TV AND APPLIANCES 187 US Eagle Drive probably is the man who was minding his own business. In the midst of his golf game at TWU golf course he made a bad slice.

The ball sailed neatly and accurately into the center of a Public Utilities truck wind- shielf. The glass was smashed beyond repair. Even without the goofy season, law enforcement officers stayed busy. Although no major wrecks were reported in the area, a sudden rain turned driving conditions to hazardous. During the rainstorm, Texas Highway Patrol units investigated about a half dozen accidents, all reported as minor.

The Denton Police Department reported about an equal number during the day. No injuries were reported.

Warning On Prices Holds True By The Associated Press Consumers warned by supermarket officials to expect higher meat prices are finding the warning all too true. An Associated Press survey of about two dozen cities shows that grocery bills -particularly for the better of beef and for pork have increased anywhere from a dime a pound on up in the two weeks since the latest warning was issued. Cabinet officials scheduled a meeting in Washington today with officials of food chains and called in farmers for a Thursday session to help in preparing a food prices report that President Nixon has requested by July 10.

Shoppers, meanwhile, were issuing their own reports. "The food prices are just terrible now," said a woman in a Seattle, supermarket. "I know how much the prices have gone up because I just started shopping regularly a year and a half ago when I was married." "Prices are out of sight," said a man in a Kansas City store. "The very first thing the government should have done in its economic program was to put controls on food prices." Supermarket executives warned consumers on June 16 to expect a rise in prices, particularly of meat. They said that wholesale costs have been going up and the retail outlets no longer could absorb the increase.

The AP checked prices in a dozen cities on June 16, then checked again two weeks later to see if there had been any change. Among the findings: In Seattle, the prices of 10 items were checked. Five went up, one went down and four remained steady. Increases included veal round steak, which went from $2.25 to $2.39 a pound, and rib pork chops, up two cents to $1.09 a pound.

Fischer's Antics Make Foe Too Mad To Play REYKJAVIK, Iceland (UPD --The future of the world chess championship once more is in doubt, this time because Soviet titleholder Boris Spassky wants American challenger Bobby Fischer punished for his behavior. The 24-game championship match was scheduled to start Sunday, but Fischer, a 29- year-old chess genius from Brooklyn failed to turn up mostly because he wanted Hanrahan's more money than the $125,000 purse put up by the organizers. All appeared saved when a British millionaire banker-and chess fan--dug into his own pocket to offer another $125,000.

Fischer was on the next plane to Reykjavik and arrived Tuesday morning, where he quickly left the airport not to be seen since. Came the draw Tuesday to see who would play while for the first game and Fischer was asleep. So he sent his second, while Spassky was there in person. The world champion, 35, apparently decided he had had enough of Fischer's antics and issued a statement that said: "Fischer broke the rules of holding the contest by refusing to come for the ceremony of opening the match. By this, Fischer insulted me, personally, and the Chess Federation of the U.S.S.R., which I represent." Crash Kills Eight On Rainy Highway CHICAGO (UPD-The conspiracy trial of Cook County State's Attorney Edward V.

Hanrahan begins today after almost 11 months of court battles in the controversial 1969 Black Panther case. Hanrahan, 51, was charged with conspiring with an assistant and 12 policemen to cover up evidence and prevent prosecution of police who raided a Black Panther apartment Dec. 4, 1969. Hanrahan, who won renomi- nation in the Democratic primary March 21 by defeating a liberal independent and a candidate backed by Mayor Richard J. Daley, has refused to plead to the charges, saying the charges are invalid.

ABILENE (AP)-Eight motorists died as two cars smashed together in heavy rain Tuesday near the north edge of Abilene, Two others suffered critical injuries. State police said an automobile carrying six persons tried to pass another- vehicle, skidded and collided with one carrying four persons the opposite direction. All were Abilene residents. Investigators blamed high speed and slick paving for the accident. It happened on Farm Road 600 about 300 yards outside the city limits.

Officers said five of the dead were in the car which sought to pass--Herman Suiters, 16; Brenda Joy Walker, 15; 'Curtis L. Renfro, 18; and Debra Bell and Ka thy Livingston, both 34. Those killed in the other vehicle were Teresina C. Sher- man, 54; her daughter Linda, 18, just graduated from high school, and son Jeffery, 13. The injured are Michael Renfro, 16, who was with the five teen-agers dying in one car, and Roddy Lee Quails, 12, in the other with the Shermans.

Witnesses said the impact twisted the front of one auto at a 90 degree angle from the: body.
