Zumwalt, and believes it indicates the Navy is doing everything it can to bring Portsmouth back up to the position it should have in relation to other Navy shipyards. The next step by the congressional delegation is to make sure Portsmouth has its share of modernization funding in the fiscal year 1973 instead of the projected 1975. Wyman and Sen. Thomas J. Mclntyre have been working on their respective House and Senate Armed Services Committees to make this certain.

The modernization wasn't completed in time for some items to be included in the fiscal year now in the works, but the senator and Wyman have identified certain high priority items, totalling about $4 million, for insertion in the next fiscal year budget.

Mrs. Russell Hankin, 1412 South mother of seven who said she's had children in the local system for 20 years, asked the council not to cut funds that could hurt the special education program. In opening the session Mayor Brady said he would allow a maximum of three minutes by a speaker on any single item or a total of 10 minutes on several items, but not all speakers kept strictly to the rules.

Mrs. Carol Jones, 15 Concord Way, passed in a petition of 136 signatures on behalf of parents in the Atlantic Heights area supporting the budget. A "regular" at i hearings, LeRoy B. Terrio, 950 Sagamore received some jeering as he walked to the mike and shot back that razzing someone before he even spoke didn't demonstrate a quality education. He said that "It's time we put a halt to all this increasing until we get a little bit of our tax rate back." He also called for "a little bit of excellent quality," charging that if children were taught to read properly in the lower grades there wouldn't be any need for a remedial reading program in the schools.

He said that program was like private tutoring and should be paid for by parents as such.

"And most important," he said, "there is the treaty and related executive agreement which will limit, for the first' time, both offensive and defen-, sive strategic nuclear weapons in the arsenals of the United i States and the U.S.S.R." Mustering arguments against conservative critics of the missiles accords, Nixon continued: "Three-fifths of all the people alive in the world today have! spent their whole lifetimes un-' der the shadow of nuclear war which could be touched off by the arms race among the great powers "With this step we have enhanced the security of both nations. We have begun to check the wasteful and dangerous spiral of nuclear arms which has dominated relations between our two countries for a generation." "No power on earth is stronger than the United States of America today," he said. "None will be stronger than the United States of America in the future." Critics say the ABM treaty, which limits the United States and the Soviet Union to two ABM sites each, and the offensive-missiles agreement, which imposes ceilings on numbers of long-range rockets at existing levels, will hand the Soviets a wide and unbeatable missile margin. Nixon made brief mention of his "heartwarming welcome in last stop in his four-nation trip which also in-1 eluded Austria and Iran--and went into little detail on some major aspects of his week-long talks with Soviet Communist party chief Leonid Brezhnev.

Russell of the New York firm of Anderson, Allegaert, and Russell. Alex Smith, another Atlanta attorney, represented the Ladies Professional Golfers A i- ation. The judge set June 12 as the date for taking depositions with the case to be heard shortly thereafter.

Miss Blalock said, "I'm delighted to be allowed to play in the tournament next week. She added that she is very sorry this "unpleasant situation has come up." She said she never knowingly violated any rule. The golfer's father. Richard Blalock, told The Herald he had spoken with his daughter this morning and "she's coming home as soon as she can make arrangements.

Blalock issued a statement on the affair expressing the belief there was more to the suspension than punishment for violation of the rules.

"Janie's respect for the rules of golf is well known," the statement read. "By her own statement she has never knowingly departed from them, and I think those who know her best would agree with this.

Blalock refused to elaborate on what "more" was "befiind the LPGA action," saying he didn't have sufficient information. He did say a one-year suspension for the violation at the Blue Grass Invitational seemed harsh.
