He is responding more to political than military pressures, informed observers believe, and is gambling that the requirements of the Vietnam war will not upset the need to placate campus dissidents and other opponents of administration policy.

Volunteer Base The armed services get nearly 800,000 volunteers a year, wincn torms a base on which to determine the size of needed draft calls. About 60 percent of these are draft-oriented," the experts say, meaning they iigure they probably will be drafted anyway.

That leaves about 300,000 true volunteers. If the threat of being drafted is restricted to only 12 months, as Nixon plans, Pentagon officials say they might lose some "draft-oriented" enlistees. On the other hand, under the new plan, many 19 year olds will learn in advance when they will be drafted and volunteering at that age should sharply increase. Chairman L. Mendel Riv ers says his House Armed Services Committee will take up Nixon's lottery plan by November but indicates the committee will be hard to convince.

"We don't think he needs ST. 9 i4 ff wants one, we'll consider it. The chairman appeared to squelch a widespread feeling Congress would not even consider the lottery plan this year but they left prospects for approval as doubtful as ever. Epidemic of Unrest The objective of both the moving age and lottery systems is to reduce the draft vulnerability period from seven years between ages 18 and 25 to one. With colleges reopening this month, with Dr.

Benjamin Spock organizing antiwar protest marches, with a step-up in congressional criticism of the pace of U.S. troop withdrawals from Vietnam, the administration has feared an epidemic of unrest without some change in the situation. A hasty reaction of the National Student. Association which represents more than 400 college student governments, indicates that the administration's action will be considered as inadquate. 111 la f- -V i If A ilJGl iii Triumphant Museum Opening ically to the present avant-garde.

There are photographs by Dorothea Lange (in a special show), Edward Weston, Imogen Cunningham. It is impossible to report briefly on the history galleries and their immense profu California memorabilia; or on the science section (thus far incomplete) with its stress on ecology, geography, physics, animals. In view of the volume of such materials, I predict that within 15 years the Oakland Museum will be talking about ways to expand. P. i FI i -n jt IT' Hi Hi zi sion ot intimate and grand 17 tr Vii BUSS By Alexander Fried Art Critic After eight years of design and planning, five of construction (including mechanical delays) and final weeks of argument about policy, the Oakland Museum triumphantly opened its doors yesterday.

The opening, unmarred by visible controversy, was a great event for Oakland, and it will eventually mean more and more to the entire Bay Area. j. Officially it contains three facets of display on different but adjacent levels in its Gallery of California Art, Cowell Hall of California History and Hall of Natural Sciences. Building an Attraction But the museum building is itself a major attraction, which art and architectural experts of the whole country have greeted with respect. On first acquaintance, yesterday's many visitors of all types, ethnic backgrounds' and ages seemed to find the three-tiered building practical and refreshingly unusual as a total environment.

Linking its interiors and exterior by a network of courts, terraces, roofs, corridors and broad steps, the museum's beautiful landscape use of trees, shrubs, flowers, grass and occasional sculpture brings a warmly congenial feeling to its basic strong stone shapes. The architects took a risk in huddling their structure fairly deeply into the ground. Whether you want to sit in the sun or swing on the green, this is the shirt to wear. It's comfortable and carefree. 100 Orion acrylic machine washes and dries wrinklefree.

And its landscaped terraces and roofs offer a fine outlook to the city profile, nearby Lake Merritt and beyond. Admittedly, California art is a limited field of specialization for a museum.

But available international master art nowadays has become so scarce and costly that to count on acquiring masses of it very soon would be foolish. Fascinating However, the past and present character of California is richly fascinating. The museum's art display perfectly lit, tastefully hung and laid out with a fine order and variety makes the most of the fascination. Paintings and other pictures greatly outnumber the sculptures. Also there are furniture (some of it oddly placed in the open midfloor), handcrafts, utensils, etc.

ranging from picturesque, naive, documentary or provincial interest to art of distinguished quality. There are pictures of Gold Rush subjects, rancho life, California Indian fantasies, old Oakland and San Francisco, trains and boats and unpolluted mountain, river, coastal and Yosemite landscapes of the idyllic past. cerning the physical or men tal condition of drivers on the applications is removed before being given to the firms, as required by law.

"Under these stringent requirements," Reagan's statement said, "only two firms were purchasing the information and each has been furnishing the department five copies of all mailings sent to any portion of the list" The department identified the firms as Abstract and Record Service, a Los Angeles mail advertising firm, and R.

Polk also sends auto manufacturers' notices to car owners warning them of defects in their vehicles which must be corrected. Portraits and figures, when not too crude, at least bring back the nostalgias of period dress and personality. There are Spanish Colonial religious works.

Marine Capt. Vince Donile, 29, who parachuted to safety in the Bay near Hunters Point after the collision, was on hand in civilian clothes to watch the show. His partner in the air, Lt. Ernie Christianson, with whose plane he collided, declined to discuss the collision, stressing instead what he termed the "safety record" of the Blue Angels.

Christianson, 27, an Annapolis graduate, said: 'We don't have to justify our show. The good that comes from the show is our justification. People know of the Blue Angels not because of the accidents but buecause of the demonstrations we put on for them." Yesterday, four Blue Angels performed high speed close formation stunts in their $1.9 million F4 Pnaa-tom aircraft, flying low so the crowds could watch. The Red Barons, another stunt group, and a group of parachutists also performed. i Alter watching the free wheeling show in the air, mo-torists climbed back into their cars in the late afternoon to spend almost an hour driving out of the spectator-packed air station.

The Governor said the "consumer protection" a c-tion is designed "to prevent the invasion of privacy," Reagan said he has asked the department to cancel its two contracts for the sale of license lists. One contract is with a mail advertising firm. Information Survey Reagan said he also has asked all cabinet members to survey information sold or given away by other state departments and report back to him. The Governor pointed out his action does not affect the department's policy of answering, for a fee, individual inquires about non confidential information in the driver's license file. A spokesman for the Motor Vehicle Department said that under the contracts, two fk-ms receive copies of about 3.5 million original and renewal applications for driver's licenses each year.

They pay the state about one-half cent per application copy.
