(AP wirephoto) East warns West Berlin Election center of dispute BERLIN (AP) East Germany's leading spokesman stated emphatically Friday that the Communist bloc will not tolerate election of a new West German president in West Berlin March 5. But Albert Norden. ducked a question at an East Berlin news conference asking what the Commuist side would do about it. Nor did Norden mention Soviet-East German military maneuvers announced by the Russians for early in March between West Berlin and the West Berlin frontier.

In 1965, such maneuvers were used for stop- and-go harassment on the road access routes to West Berlin, 110 air miles inside East Germany. That same year, waves of Soviet MIG fighters howled over Berlin during a session of the West German Parliament.

Harrison Cooperstown D.D.G.M. of Otsego-Schoharie District made his official visit to Cherry Valley Masonic Lodge Monday night. Dinner was served pre- ceeding the meeting members of Cherry Valley Chapter Order of Eastern Star. This time it is the election of a successor to retiring Heinrich Luebke by a West German parliamentary federal assembly that has stirred Communist ire. Despite the East bloc' protests and the announcement of maneuvers, a West German government spokesman in Bonn reaffirmed the West German intention to hold the election in West Berlin.

Referring to the election, Norden said Socialist camp pa- tience is not without bounds in' the face of continued West German "provocations" in West Berlin, which he again claimed is a separate political'entity and not a part of West Germany. He said that if West Germany continues its "provocations challenges and sharpening of the situation" to the detriment of peace and security in Europe, the Bonn government will find itself a victim "of its own absolute miscalculation." Bayh against Nixon election reform plan WASHINGTON (AP) The leader of the Senate fight for direct popular presidential elections accused President Nixon Friday of a "retreat to expediency" in rejecting the plan. Sen. Birch Bayh, predicted neither alternative' suggested by Nixon has a chance of enactment. Bayh, chairman of the Senate constitutional amendments subcommittee, told reporters Nixon sent Congress "proposals of distinctly less merit but which might appear on first glance to have greater political acceptability." The reason for Nixon's stand, Bayh said, is that the President's "appraisal of the current political climate has led him to the conclusion that a popular election plan could not be ratified as an amendment to the Constitution by 1972." He called this "a conscientious judgment but an erroneous one," adding that "1 believe that direct election is an idea whose time has arrived." Nixon proposed a constitutional amendment abolishing individual electors, providing for a popular vote runoff if a candidate fails to get at least 40 per cent of electoral votes, and suggesting that, instead of the current winner-take-all system in a state, electoral votes be divided "in a manner that may more closely approximate the popular vote than does the present system."

Haggerty refused a motion to place all Warren Commission testimony concerning the assassination of President John F. Kennedy into evidence at the Clay Shaw conspiracy trial Friday. Haggerty's ruling came during cross-examination of Marina Oswald Porter, widow of Lee Harvey Oswald, the man named by the Warren Commission as Kennedy's lone assassin.

Shaw is charged with conspiring to kill Kennedy. Chief defense counsel F. Irvin Dymond asked to have the Warren Commission testimony placed into evidence when Asst. Dist. Atty.

James L. Alcock quoted her testimony to the commission and asked if she had lied once about not knowing of an 'Oswald trip to Mexico. "1 didn't lie to the Warren Commission the first time, the second time or the third time," she said of her three appearances before the commission. Haggerty, who earlier denied a defense motion for an acquittal order, said he refused to place the commission testimony into evidence because he did not know what inadmissible evidence had been allowed by the commission. The commission, which found no credible evidence of a conspiracy, has been on trial, in effect, alongside Shaw.

In its official investigation, the commission, headed by Chief Justice Earl Warren, took testimony from 552 witnesses. Dymond's first witness was Mrs. Porter, 27, who was born in Russia and married Oswald there during his stay in that country from October 1959 to June 1962. She has remarried since Oswald's murder two days after the Kennedy assassination on Nov. 22, 1963.

She now lives in Richardson, Tex. During her examination, she described Oswald as a friendless man who seldom gave her any money. She said the most he 'ever gave her at one time was a dollar. Mrs. Porter contradicted the testimony of star prosecution witness Perry Raymond Russo who described Oswald as a bearded beatnik type who once shared an apartment with a New Orleans homosexual, David W.

Ferrie. Russo, a book salesman, testi- irnow Oswald as a "Leon Oswald" who plotted in Septem- direction, but in so doing, do NOT neglect little details.

Mrs. Porter said she had never heard Oswald mention Ferrie, described by Russo and oth- ers as an eccentric homosexual.

Russo testified that when he first met Oswald at Feme's apartment, Oswald was introduced as Ferrie's "roommate." Mrs. Porler testified, howev- er, that Oswald never spent a night away from home while they lived in New Orleans except for one night in jail after his arrest in connection with distributing pro-Cuba leaflets.
