He spent the night in the infirmary at the Federal Correctional Institution and, after being released in "good health" Tuesday, was taken to Riverhead, N.Y., to face five. charges (not related to the tower incident). Those charges are two counts of burglary, grand larceny, criminal possession of stolen property, criminally selling a dangerous drug and criminal possession of a dangerous drug, police said. 1969 Incident The drug charges, a detective said, arose from a 1969 incident when Chiofalo allegedly sold "a few tabs" of LSD and STP to an undercover agent.

The detective could not explain the other charges. Chiofalo is serving a three-, year term on a conviction of V'l2 "We weren't sure how we were going to do it before, now we can," he said.

U.S. Sen. Lowell P. Weicker, Tuesday saw the devaluation of the dollar greatly benefiting Connecticut in its export business and the proportionate uplift in unemployment.

But he listed unemployment as the continuing number one problem facing the state. "I don't want to be fourth in per capita income during wars, but third in unemployment wars are over," he told a Hartford news conference Tuesday. "Connecticut has too much in the way of skills to be so dependent on the war industry," he added. He announced he has created a specia division in his Washington office to work exclusively on unemployment problems in the state, both legislatively and administratively. He implied its function would be to secure as much federal help for state towns and cities as possible.

Told early Monday he would be tsken to New York on the o'hir charges, he climbed a leg of the water tower on prison grounds to protest the alleged practice of New York authorities taking prisoners from Danbury to New York withont extradition pro-( ceedings. Prison officials, however, said Chiofalo was not enticed to ex-1 tradition proceedings.

Chiofalo late Tues- day was being held without bail Suffolk County who had not set a court date, i Danbury Associate Warden Charles Benson said Chiofalo! came down from the tower of his own accord. He will face no added charge because of the tower incident, Benson said, although an investigation is under way and "disciplinary action" may be taken against him. Enrollment On Decline In Colleges Fall enrollments in the 26 Connecticut independent colleges and universities dropped for the first time in state history this year, while total higher education enrollment increased 2.3 per cent from the previous year to a 130,589 total. I In the public sector, where the number of institutions increased by one to 21, total enrollment rose by 4,529 to a new high of 79,338. I The figures include all full time and part-time and unclassified students.

In the private sector, where the number of institutions decreased by three to 26, total en rollment decreased by 610 to 51,251. The decrease of 1.2 per cent compares cloself with a 1.5; per cent enrollment decrease in the nation's private universities reported last week by the Car negie Commission for Higher Education. Costs a Factor Dr. Charles E. Shain, presi-i dent of Connecticut College and jhead of the Connecticut Confer-'ence of Independent Colleges, attributes the decline to the differential" between private and public institutions, Since the 1970 opening fall figures were compiled, two private colleges, Silvermine College of Art and College of Notre Dame, have ceased operations and one.

Berkeley Divinity School, has merged with Yale University. One new public college, Qui-; nebaug Valley Community Col lege in Danielson. began opera-; tions last September, Shain said the enrollment fig-lures show that the state is not using efficiently the resources nf iha nritroto inctiiuf innc Piii till. riAVUIl.

He believes that, to civil rights activists, President Nixon's record is not good on paper, but that, in the area of housing and education, his record is strong. before his trial was completed. The convict said it convinced him that if he pursued the trial he would get a full 35 years instead of possible lenient sentence for making a plea. When Sweezey did plead guilty, Judge Clarie sentenced him to 18 years behind bars.

Sweezey is presently serving the time at the federal prison in, Leavenworth, Kans. Apparently, according to one news report of the trial at the time, Sweezey was at least aware that a sentence of considerably less than 35 years could be imposed. While one government witness was testifying on March 17, 1 1965, Sweezey interrupted the 1 testimony in a protest and was quoted as remarking, "This man is talking stuff that will put me away for 20 years I want to defend myself." i At the time, Judge Clarie had to warn Sweezey to stop his interruptions. Denied Once After his sentencing, Sweezey was denied an earlier appeal by Judge Clarie; however, later the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals remanded the case back to the judge for a hearing on the convict's complaints.

Sweezey, Anthony F. Kusy, 30, and Henry D. Morin, 35, both of Hartford, were originally charged with the $24,698 holdup of the Farmington Avenue branch of the Mechanics Savings Bank on Sept. 3, 1964.

Emmet Clarie Tuesday reserved decision on the appeal of a 34-year-old convicted bank robber who claimed a statement by his lawyer caused him to plead guilty. During Tuesday's hearing, Richard G. Sweezey, formerly of Boston, dropped another of his claims that he was under the influence of drugs on the day of his guilty March 19, 1965, in front of the same Judge Clarie.

Assistant U.S. Atty. B. Blair Crawford said in court that he was prepared to call five witnesses, including two FBI agents, a convicted co-conspirator, a defense lawyer, and a doctor, to rebutt Sweezey's claim that he was under the influence of drugs. Claims Misinformation Sweezey, who was represented Tuesday by court-appointed counsel, Igor I.

Sikorsky then decided to forego that grounds of appeal. He next argued that his former defense lawyer's statement that he would receive a maximum 35-year sentence, instead of a 25-year penalty, had forced him to plead guilty.
