STREET OPEN NEW YORK (API The stock market advanced broadly Monday, riding the momentum of last week's strong gain. The opening Dow Jones average of 30 industrials was up a fraction, and gainers took a 2-tol lead over losers on the New York Stock Exchange.

Analysts said it appeared last weeks resurgence of buying had convinced some investors that the rally which carried the market to an eight-month high at Fridays close had further to go. In the economic news, the government reported that business inventories dropped a record $1 49 billion in February, with the bulk of the decline coming in the auto industry under programs of rebates to car buyers The commerce department, which had originally reported an inventory reduction for January, revised that month's figures to show a $5-million increase. Stocks had shown a strong favorable response to the original January figures because they appeared to show that the distribution system was being effectively cleared out to open the way for resumed production. Monday prices included Holiday Inns, up 4 at $UJ4, EG and at $14 1 a. International Telephone and Telegraph at $20 and Citicorp at $35.

On Friday the Dow Jones industrial average finished up its biggest weekly gain in six months with an 8 21 advance to 789 50.

Cavendish told The Herald the flight was made out of frustration and to protest the suspension of his pilot's licence by the Ministry of Transport. "Youve got to have something that pushes you over the edge, and the ministry of transport is enough to drive anyone around the rim. He told The Herald his licence was suspended in January, 1974, because he had sought psychiatric treatment and despite the fact that his 11-year flying record was clear of accidents or violations of regulations. Brooks RCMP interviewed Cavendish for about three hours before he was released and said he appeared to be "a stable guy.

He also was taken to Brooks General Hospital, where a doctor who examined him pronounced him "as sane as me. The dramatic flight began when Cavendish took off from Springbank Airport, east of Calgary, after giving the air traffic controller there a letter explaining his intention to "make like Louis Riel and rebel a they said yes, he refused them communion.

There are unquestionably children in the airlift who are true orphans, but I talked to a number of children who said they are not orphans, Jane Barton, translator for the American Friends Service Committee, said during the weekend. She said she spoke last week to four children who said they were related to a Vietnamese colonel. Three said they were his children and one his niece, she said.

Muoi McConnell, a Vietnamese nurse's aide who volunteered as a translator, said she talked to one airlifted five-year-old girl, Le Thi Bach Nuyen, who turned out to be the daughter of the director of Friends for All Children's Saigon orphanage. Meanwhile, in Los Angeles confusion by county health officials and persons aboard a plane bringing in another group of Vietnamese children resulted in accusations on both sides that the departure of the sick children from the plane was unnecessarily delayed. At Ft. Benning, where 171 Vietnamese children arrived during the weekend, some of the people who arranged for their trip are angry and disappointed. Betty Tisdale, the Columbus housewife who organized the evacuation of children from a Saigon orphanage, clashed with officials of the Pearl S.

Buck Foundation of Perkasie, over the handling of 18 of the 271 children. She said their adoptions had been privately arranged but Frank Davis, an official of the foundation, said before any child could be adopted he or she would have to be positively identified and the prospective parents approved by state adoption officials.
