Papermakers to try recycling waste for fuel MADISON (AP) An experiment using waste products instead of coal as fuel three paper-making firms will begin in Wisconsin next "month, the state Solid Waste Recycling Authority was told 'Friday. On about May 3 three paper companies i begin burning pclletized waste as an alternative to other forms of fuel, authority coordinator Warren Potter, said. The authority will pay for the first 200 to 240 tons of the i a shipped from St. Louis, Potter said, in order to deter- i waste product can efficiently be used as fuel. The three paper companies.

Consolidated Paper Co. of Appleton, John Strange Paper Corp. of Menasha and Fort Howard Paper Co. of Green Bay, will be responsible for analyzing the effects of using the pelletized mate- rials. In addition.

Potter said contracts were being negotiated for use of the waste material as a supplemental fuel source by the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh and the Wisconsin State Prison at Waupun. The pellets are compressed community waste that has been cleaned of metals and glass, and their use is aimed at i the need for large usage of coal. Potter said the state is assuming the estimated $24,000 cost of buying the pelletized material in order to dter- mine whether Wisconsin should construct waste treatment plants that would produce the pellets. "We are trying to obtain a sample of this material and provide it free to the companies so they can get some hands-on experience," Potter said. "The companies will handle the material, burn and stack tests so we can prove or disprove the usefulness of this as a fuel." He said the authority is trying to test the product and create a market for it at the same time in order to gauge the feasibility and acceptance of its use.

He estimated the 240 tons would last about six weeks, at which time the authority will attempt to write contracts for further use of the pelletized fuel. Discriminatory grants UW rejects restricted gifts WHITEWATER, Wis. (AP)'-- A proposed policy change which would allow gifts and grants to the University of Wisconsin to include discriminatory requiremenls lost on a 7-7 tie vote of the UW Board of Regents Friday. The proposal would have permitled acceplance of gifts that "carry restrictions based upon sex, race, color, creed, religion or national origin," although an amendment stated that no gift or bequest would be accepted if it was meant to promote discrimination against specific groups. As a result of the proposal's defeat, the regents took no action on two proposed bequests.

One, for $10,000, was designated to go to a law student of "character, gentlemanliness, dedication and The other was aimed at providing $7,812 for the "living expenses of a Christian girl or girls with limited Leading the fight against the proposed change in policy were Regents John Lavine of Chippewa Falls and Arthur DeBardeleben of Park Falls. They contended the change would sanction and encourage gifts with discriminatory restrictions. would put us in the position of classification (of students) that is absolutely discraceful.r DeBardeleben said. Other regents argued, however, that if the policy wai changed, proposed gifts would still have to be approved by the UW administration and the regents. "Our policy is not going to preclude anyone from writing in their will whatever they want to," Regent Ody Fish of Pewaukee said.

In other action, the regents approved using S560.400 in enrollment funds released by the legislature's Joint Finance Committee to expand enrollment limits by 200 students each at the Milwaukee and La Crosse campuses and by 100 students at the Eau Claire campus. The regents also heard Donald Smith, UW senior vice president, report that discussions with the Legislative Audit Bureau had proceeded well concerning an audit of the UW. Smith said six campus surveys had been completed, and he said auditors apparently would "confine itself to management practices." instead of judging the quality of education. The regents named Robert S. Zigman oC.

Poll on funerals finds customers satisfied I A A Nine out of 10 persons responding to a poll conducted on behalf of the National Funeral Directors Association were "very satisfied" with services provided by undertakers, the organization said Friday. The association, based in Milwaukee, released findings by Central Surveys of Shenandoah.

Iowa, uhich interviewed by telephone 1.005 persons who had arranged funerals in the last 10 years. Other findings, according to the association: Ninety-five per cent felt the funeral director ddd a good job of explaining charges for services, facilities and merchandise. Ninety-seven per cent said the funeral director and his staff were helpful and considerate in all ways. Most persons felt the funeral directors' charges were "in line" rather than high or low. The association also said most people do not favor increased government regulation of funeral practices and that by a 12-1 margin, respondents preferred state and local regulation of funeral practices.

Last August, the Federal Trade Commission proposed trade regulations that would bar undertakers from various practices, including bait and switch selling tactics uhich display cheaper caskets in poor condition and unatlractive colors.

But Raymond Majcrus. state director of the United Auto Workers, said employer members would be naive to expect their labor colleagues to agree lo making the unemployment compensation fund solvent wilhoul also improving benefits. "If that's the posture we're in today, we're at the same point we were at months ago." Majenis said. "That's not going to happen.

News briefs Men ordered to swear loyalty APRIL 10, 1776 The New Hampshire Committee of Safely today ordered that all males over 21 sign a statement of allegiance to the American cause. Postal rates hiked WASHINGTON (UPI) Beginning April 18, the Postal Service will impose rates with up to 33 per cent increases on charges for special delivery, money orders, registered mail, insurance and other special services. The Postal Service Friday said the hikes were "temporary" under provisions of the law which vest final authority in the Postal Rate Commission, which can order modifications. The recommended changes were filed with the commission on Jan. 5.

It was estimated that the higher fees would generate $5 million a month in increased revenues. Under the new schedules, the basic special delivery charge will go from 60 cents to'80 cents; the minimum money order fee from 25 to 30 cents: the certified mail fee from 30 to 40 cents, and the minimum registered mail charge from 95 cents to $1.25. Increases also will become effective at the same time in the charges for COD mail (collect on delivery) and special handling, as well as international mail services. The Postal Service said special delivery charges had not been raised since 197i: certified mail charges since 1966, and special handling fees since 1957.

Chiropractic law challenged MADISON (AP) The constitutionality of a state law requiring insurance companies to offer optional coverage for chiropractic treatment was challenged Friday in Circuit Court at Madison. A complaint filed by Reserve Life Insurance co.

contends the statute violates state and federal constitutional provisions forbidding the passage of laws impairing the obligation of contracts. Attorneys for Reserve Life said the complaint is the result of a ruling by Insurance Commissioner Harold Wilde that the insurance company is required to pay a claim for chiropractic services by one of its policy-holders. According to the complaint, chiropractic treatment makes no significant contribution to health care. Circuit Judge Richard Bardwell was assigned the case but no hearing date was set. Dog turns out to be man CHICAGO (UPI) Two Chicago policemen spent about 30 minutes today barking and meowing, trying to coax what they thought was a dog out of a large cardboard box.

Instead, out stepped a 13-year-old burglary suspect. Patrolmen Russell Harper and John Cummings were called to a store on Chicago's West Side to investigate reports that an injured dog was trapped behind an eight- foot burglar fence at the store entrance. Harper said several area residents had called police to complain about the "dog" barking. The burglary suspect, he said had hidden in the box when the store closed and was barking at passersby to make them think he was a watch dog. "When we got here, all we could see was something moving inside the box." Harper said.

"I wasn't about to climb over fence and get attacked by some big dog. We didn't know what was in there." After about 30 minutes of exchanging barks with the "dog" Harper. Cummings and several other policemen started to open the gales to put a dog noose on the animal. "All of a sudden this big kid backs out of the box." Harper said. "We couldn't believe it.

The kid was at least 5 feet. 8 inches tall and had a crow bar. hammer, flashlight and gloves on him."

Seafarer is tested DETROIT (AP) Low frequency waves like those to be used Project Seafarer is built did not actually cause rats to lose weight in his Navy-funded study, a Temple University researcher says. While Dr. Joseph Noval said Friday the rats didn't lose weight, he noted they didn't gain as fat as non-exposed rats. There was a 20 lo 30 per cent difference in the rale of weight increase, he said.

Noval's statement disputed the conclusion drawn by a Syracuse. N.Y., scientist, who revealed the existence of the two-year-old study earlier this week. Dr. Andrew Marino said the experiment, which he discovered while surveying work done in the field for the National Research Council, showed extra low frequency (ELF) waves caused some rats lo lose weight. Marino said the results of the study were never published although unfavorable lo Seafarer, a massive underground communications grid that could be built in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, or possibly in two western states.

It all started when LEAA officials decided several months ago that their bureaucracy had outgrown its present quarters in Iwo privately-owned office buildings near the Justice Department, LEAA is a part of the department So LEAA asked the department's administrative division lo find the agency still more office space.

The department quickly arranged to move scores of LEAA employes from the old quarters into a new office building eight blocks away. The ensuing uproar was described in "The a newsletter published by Local 2830 of the American Federation of State. County and Municipal Employes, which represents LEAA workers.
