Frick, 17, Route 2, was accidentally shot in the foot when a .22 caliber rifle discharged yesterday afternoon in the Nason bottoms.

The sheriff's office said that the gun went off as Frick was walking with four friends in the bottoms. They did not know which of the boys was carrying the gun when the accident occurred. The injured youth was rushed to Good Samaritan Hospital around 3:00 p.m. yesterday and was released after treatment in the emergency room. PLANE CRASH KILLS REUTHER AND 5 OTHERS (Continued From Page One) from the airport.

In his sometimes stormy career, Reuther had survived an assassin's shotgun blast which crippled his right arm and had thwarted an attempt to take him on a non-return, gangland- style ride. He was a participant in the then sensational sit-down strikes of the 1930s in which his fledgling union took over auto plants and held them to force its recognition as bargaining agent. Reuther realized a long-time dream in 1967 when he won a guaranteed annual income from General Motors, Ford and Chrysler. In his tenure he also had seen the average wage at the Big Three rise to $4.02 hourly, with fringe benefits estimated to be worth another $1.75 an hour. The union's other eight top officers, shocked and grieved, described Reuther in a statement as the UAW's "conscience, its heartbeat and its soul," and called upon other unionists "to observe with us a week of mourning in his memory." They left unanswered the question of who will lead them at the bargaining table.

NEW YORK (AP) The stock market continued to drift lower in some of the slowest selling since the summer doldrums of 1967. At noon the Dow Jones average of 30 industrials was off 2.51 at 715.22. Declines led advances by almost 2 to 1. First-hour volume of 1.62 million was the lightest since Aug. 28, 1967, when 1.56 million shares changed hands.

Analysts said there appeared to be little interest in either buying or selling. Continued uneasiness over Cambodian developments and student unrest received a further shake with negative news on th eeconomic front. A Nixon administration official said federal budget deficits were almost certain to occur the present fiscal year. Also, a revision of the wholesale price index for last month by the Labor Department shows no change instead of the small decline initially reported. The Associated Press 60-stock average at noon was off 1.3 to 251.2, with industrials off 1.6 rails off 1.4, and utilities off 0.1 Oils and airlines were mixed, while rails, chemicals, metals, utilities, electronics, aircraft, mail order-retail, motors, steels and rubber issues were off.

A block of 80,600 shares of Allied Chemical went across at 18, off 1. Prices on the New York Stock Exchange included Allied Chemical, off to 18. On the American Stock Exchange, Milgo Electronic was off 1V 8 to Saxon Industries off 2V 8 to 44; Ameco, off 1 to. Asamera Oil, off 5 to and AMK warrants, off to 4VB. BIRTHS Mr.

She weighed eight pounds and eight and one-fourth ounces. with Saigon. Reports from Phnom Penh said the South Vietnamese Marines seized both sides of the ferry landing.

They arrived with an allied flotilla that moved across the border from South Vietnam Saturday. Other reports from the Neak Luong area said 20 to 30 South Vietnamese boats were maneuvering in the waterway between the two sides of the ferry landing. The capture of Neak Luong removed the main obstacle on the road to the hard pressed provincial capital of Svay Rieng, 30 miles west of the Cambodian border. U.S.-trained strike forces of Cambodians, born in South Vietnam and flown to Phnom Penh, are expected to spearhead the drive to clear the rest of the highway to Svay Rieng, about 40 miles southwest of Neak Luong, the Cambodian reports said. Incomplete reports put allied losses in the Mekong River drive as at least four Americans and 13 South Vietnamese killed and two Americans and 21 Vietnamese wounded.

The official announcement that the naval force would make the drive up the Mekong said the purpose was to provide relief supplies for 200,000 Vietnamese living in the Cambodian capital and to bring back to South Vietnam those who wanted to return. The movement of U.S. forces taking part in the river operation or the support being provided to the South Vietnamese was couched in vague terms. The U.S. Command stuck by "an earlier announcement that American forces were "operating within guidance issued by higher authority for this operation and have not violated that Reports from Washington have quoted President Nixon as saying U.S.

forces will not penetrate more than 21.7 miles into Cambodia. The U.S. Command reported two clashes with enemy troops Sunday in Cambodian areas where American troops are searching out enemy stockpiles and base camps. One was in the Fishhook area eight miles southeast of Mimot, and the other was six miles inside Cambodia along the region of South Vietnam's central highlands. Eight American soldiers were reported killed and 18 wounded in those two actions.

Enemy losses were unknown. While the pushes went on into the Cambodian sanctuary areas, U.S. Strategic Air Command B52 bombers Sunday and today kept up their pounding of targets in the Fishhook. Enemy gunners carried out 16 shellings overnight in South Vietnam, but only five caused casualties or damage and these were termed light by U.S. Headquarters.

Others will be allowed to attend topical discussions to finish the academic year.
