Ehrlichman's lawyers have said the former president's testimony is vi authenticating the tapes today and have said they hope to finish that task without requiring Nixon's testimony.

Assistant. special prosecutor Richard Ben-Veniste said none of the 26 tapes the prosecutors plan to introduce into evidence starting next week have any gaps resulting from the Secret Service's method of changing tape reels. Defense sources said, however, there were other flaws in the system that probably prevented other presidential conversations from being picked up by the taping system. on prosecution and defense lawyers to suggest how to proceed as a result of Millers affadavit. A Secret Service employe testified Wednesday that Nixon's White House taping system had flaws that make it suspect as a complete record of his White House conversations.

SECRET SERVICE technician James G. Baker testified at the cover-up trial that as much as three minutes of some presidential conversations went unrecorded while tape reels were being changed. Baker, a retired Air Force sergeant, testified as one of a series of witnesses summoned to authenticate 26 White House tapes the prosecution plans to play for the jury. The prosecution resumed the process of PPC Given Court Ulitimatum version from Chapter 11 to Chapter 10 has been set for Dec. 4 in Jackson at the Bankruptcy Court on the third floor of the federal building.

The question will become moot unless the company obtains enough money to continue operations over the next two weeks and to avoid liquidation. Several weeks ago a petition was filed to change the proceeding to a Chapter 10 action, which would allow reorganization of PPC under a different name and through procedures that are different from those permitted under Chapter 11 proceedings. A hearing on the con Teacher Is Charged In Shooti ng I ncident TRENTON Peabody High School teacher J.W. Burkhead faces preliminary hearing Nov. 22 on charges of assault and battery with intent to commit felonious homicide in the shooting injury of a student last Friday night.

The teacher was arrested on a warrant signed by Mrs. Jerry Cooper, mother of Jimmy McKelvy, 17, who was shot in the abdomen when he drove a car onto Burkhead's property late Friday night. He was hospitalized and listed in fair condition the next day. Peabody principal Ancil Walker said Burkhead was at school but "the principal "does not know yet" whether the charges will affect the teacher's position. The incident grew out of a plot by McKelvy and two other youths to throw eggs at Burkhead's house while the teacher was at a football game, authorities saidj.Officers quoted Burkhead as saying he saw the students drive onto his property near the front of the house, after which Burkhead fired one shot from a 12-gauge shotgun.

The teacher said he fired the shot in defense of his property, and had no knowledge of the identity of the car's occupants. Young McKelvy was the only passenger in the car who sustained injury. On the recommendation of the attorney general's office, Burkhead was released on his own recognizance after being charged. Wallace. 1-Jackson.

The petition for what is known as a unified or organized bar was filed by 13 attorneys from across the' state. The TBA now has about 3300 members and about 2,200 other Tennessee lawyers do not belong to the bar association. The bar association's board of governors voted at Gatlinburg in December to defer discussion on filing a petition for a unified bar, pending more time to discuss the issue with other lawyers. "Now there is no need for them (governors) to act," said F. Graham Bartlett, TBA president from Knoxville.

"Unless the Supreme Court requests the Tennessee bar to file something or to give its opinion, I don't see there is any need for us to take any action." Those signing the petition are Earl Ailor, Knoxville, chairman of the TBA grievance committee; George Benton, Jackson; William Leech Colum- bia; J.Paul Coleman, City; Ernest Taylor, Morristown; Leo Bearman, Russell Sugarmon and' William Walsh, all Memphis; and George Barrett, Louis Farrell Bill Willis Jr. and Jayne Ann Woods, all Nashville.
