Senate approves pipeline WASHINGTON (AP) The Senate today passed a bill authorizing private construction of an oil pipeline across Alaska.

Sen. Henry M. Jackson, predicted President Nixon would sign the measure. He told the Senate that if environmentalists tie up the $4.5 billion project with lawsuits, lie will introduce a bill to have the federal government build the pipeline. The measure, pushed along by congressional concern over the energy crisis, cleared the Senate less than 24 hours after passing the House.

The vote was 80 to 5. Voting against the bill were Sens. Birch Bayh, Joseph R. Byden Edward W. Brooke, R- Harold E.

Hughes, D-Iowa; and William Proxmire, D-Wis. Jackson noted that Roy Ash, director of the Office of Management and Budget, has said he will recommend a veto because the bill contains provisions broadening the powers of government regulatory agencies. Secretary of the Interior Rogers C.B. Morton, however, has said he will recommend the President sign the bill. Congressional sources believe Nixon would be reluctant to veto it in light of his own statements that Alaska's vast oil reserves must be tapped to meet fuel shortages.

When the bill came up in the House, Rep. Sam Steiger, moved to have it sent back to a House-Senate conference committee so the challenged features could be removed, His motion was defeated 213 to 162, with Republicans supplying three-quarters of its support. Oil companies say the 789-mile pipeline from the Prudhoe Bay oil fields to the Gulf of Alaska can be completed by 1977 if a permit is issued this year. Rep. Don Young, R-Alaska, told the House this timetable would depend on getting a start in March.

He said a delay of several weeks in passing the bill would probably postpone the project for a year because of difficulties of moving equipment in Alaska's severe winter. Rep. John Melcher, chairman of the conferees, said a renewed conference probably would take until some time next month at least. Steiger, however, argued the matter could be cleared up in a day or two. By Golda Meir Return to banks of Suez sought By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Premier Golda Meir of Israel called today for withdrawal of both Israeli and Egyptian troops to the banks of the Suez Canal where they were before the October war.

Mrs. Meir told the Israeli parliament in a policy speech that a return to the Oct. 22 cease-fire lines, which forms a key part of the Middle East agreement worked out by U.S. Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger, is illusory.

Egypt wants a return to the Oct. 22 lines, which Israel claims were never determined. The agreement says the two parties should immediately start discussions to settle the question. "Israel will never be prepared to withdraw from her present military positions to the imaginary and fictitous line that is called the line of Oct. 22," the premier told parliament.

In another dispute that could upset the cease-fire agreement, the commander of the U.N. peacekeeping forces in the Middle East flew to Tel Aviv in an effort to resolve conflicts over highway checkpoints. Finnish Maj. Gen. Ensio Siilasvuo made the trip after an urgent early morning visit to the scene of a dispute between Israeli and U.N.

troops on the Cairo-Suez highway. A U.N. spokesman indicated the U.N. forces understood they were to replace the Israeli checkpoint under terms of the cease-fire agreement. At the same time Radio Israel reported that Defense Minister Moshe Dayan and Chief of Staff Lt.

Gen. David Elazar had visited the disputed checkpoint. The radio commentator said the trouble resulted from "a misunderstanding by the U.N. Emergency Force of their functions." A high-ranking Israeli official reported Israel is refusing to turn over to the United Nations its control of the highway to Suez and the stranded Egyptian 3rd Army until Egypt fixes a prisoner of war exchange. The official said Finnish U.N.

soldiers set up a roadblock on the Cairo- Suez highway Outside Suez Monday evening, but Israeli soldiers tore it down, and "fisticuffs took place." "It was not very serious," he reported. Then Israeli officers allowed the Finns to set up a checkpoint on the western outskirts of Suez, the source continued, but the Israelis maintained a checkpoint of their own nearby. The official said Israeli and U.N. troops also were maintaining separate checkpoints at Kilometer 101, where the highway crosses the cease-fire line, despite a report Monday by the Israeli state radio that Israel had turned its checkpoint over to the U.N. force.

The cease-fire agreement negotiated by Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger last week provided for both the prisoner exchange and U.N. control of the highway through the Israeli lines to Suez, giving Egypt access to the town and its isolated troops. Gorton: Evans' power must be clarified SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) State Atty.

Gen. Slade Gorton says the governor's power must be clarified in a number of areas related to the energy crisis before the January special legislative session begins. Gorton, speaking at a news conference Monday, said Gov. Dan Evans' authority must be clarified in making emergency allocations I Building plans are discussed RAINIER--Discussion of plans for the proposed elementary school at Rainier occupied most of the Rainier School District's board meeting Monday night. No construction date has been set, according to Superintendent Richard Drees, as the board is still formulating plans and scheduling visitations to other schools to acquire possible ideas as to the type of school that is needed.

The new faciliy is expected to serve over 500 children. The plans are being projected beyond eight years. When the attendance increases, Drees explained, the resource and multi-purpose rooms will be converted into classrooms to expand the building. Before an architect is hired, Drees said the board will concentrate on how it will make use of the present staff and how the proposed school will best serve the patrons of the district. In other business, board members discussed the defeated proposed merger of the Tenino-Rainier School Districts, the recent general election and the fuel shortage.

power, waiving environmental laws to permit increased power production and directing utilities to increase power production when they have the ability to do so. The question of which environmental acts will apply to construction of facilities such as oil refineries during an energy shortage also must be clarified, Gorton said. power be canceled for light mefals plants' such as the Kaiser Aluminum Co. plant at Mead or the proposed magnesium plant at Addy, Gorton said many of-the industrial power contracts call for interruptible power. He said such power could be cut off when the general power supply runs low.

He said, a "rule of impossibility" might be applied to power contracts. This would develop when the region reached the point "where all power contracts cannot be honored. In that case, someone has to give way," Gorton said. He speculated a judge in such a situation might rule power should be allocated on the basis of when a power contract began. As to changing the length of the school year to save electricity, Gorton said there has to be "some form of affirmative action by the legislature" to authorize a longer school year.

But he said any law approved in the January legislative session "very likely might not even be effective until the fc next school year" because school contracts already have been signed for the 1973-74 school year. Shifting to discussion of Initiative 276, the state's public disclosure law, Gorton said he hopes the state Supreme Court will rule soon on the constitutionality of the act. He said it is likely the legislature might alter the initiative to exempt the personal disclosure requirements for officials in small towns, school districts and special taxing districts. Gorton criticized a "distressing trend" by candidates in this fall's campaigns to overemphasize small, technical violations of the disclosure law rather than discussing more substantial campaign issues.

The senior 1 class will receive the proceeds from the play, according to Jerry Glaze, senior Class advisor; DETROIT (AP) The fate of the United Auto Workers' proposed contract at Ford Motor Co. remained in doubt today, although the union said it altered a key provision in effort to overcome the objections of many skilled tradesmen. However, union sources said some tradesmen did not know about the change when they voted last week.

At least one unit attempted to take a second vote today, but UAW leaders said it was invalid. Sources close to the union said Ford's 28,000 tradesmen voted against the pact by a 3-1 margin last week. The over-all vote by 180,000 Ford employes could go either way, the sources said. The union said it would have no announcement on the vote until Wednesday. UAW Vice President Ken Bannon said the union had reached an understanding with Ford on Nov.

6 that individual skilled trades units could exempt themselves from the new contract provision for voluntary overtime. Many skilled workers say their jobs could be threatened because the new provision allows Ford to use unskilled workers skilled workers refuse overtime work. About 4,500 skilled tradesmen at Ford's massive River Rouge complex started a second ratification vote on the pact today after learning of the change. But Bannon informed the unit, part Of Local 600, that the second vote was not valid under union rules and would not be recognized. Bannon said the unit originally voted to reject the pact.

A union spokesman said the resubmission of the agreement to the Local 600 tradesmen was not done at the instruction of the international union. He declined comment on reports that other units also were taking second votes. Bull pays dearly for romance with 25 Hereford 'dearies' SHERMAN, Tex. (AP) The case of the late, and possibly great, Ferdinand the Bull and 25 lady friends he is said to have romanced on his fling has ended up in a county courtroom here. The court case is moot for Ferdinand, who paid for his alleged deeds with his life, but important to his owner, Jerry Russell, who says he should in damages.

Ferdinand's troubles apparently were caused not so much by his ardor but by his choice of sweethearts. The Charolais bull tried to associate with Herefords, creating a crossbreed which for some purposes is not considered as valuable as purebred animals. In a suit filed by Russell, it is contended Ferdinand was killed in September 1972 for breaking down a fence and entering a ranch owned by Dick and Richard Arrington of Van Alstyne, for his rcndevous with the polled I Hereford cows. Russell's suit alleges the Arringtons retaliated by killing Ferdinand. Russell is asking $3,500, including $1,000 for the loss of the bull, $1,500 for punitive damages "if indeed the bull was maliciously killed," and $1,000 for breeding services the bull no longer can render.

The Arringtons filed a countersuit in district court asking for $8,500 in damages claiming the bull broke down a fence and serviced 25 polled Herefords. The suit claims the unfortunate rendevouz resulted in 25 crossbreed cows with some $5,000 less value than superior polled Hereford cows. On Monday, the Arringtons' attorneys withdrew the countersuit and went back to county court asking a $2,600 judgment, but that motion was dismissed..
