2 The News and Observer, S. Viets Back Off Quang Tri SAIGON (UPI)-South Vietnamese paratroopers regrouped on the outskirts of Quang Tri city Monday, temporarily leaving, the northern capital in the hands of entrenched North Vietnamese forces who appeared determined to hold it, U.S. advisers said. Far to the south, a Communist artillery round killed U.S. Brig.

Gen. Richard J. Tallman and three other Americans as they inspected the besieged city of An Loc, the U.S. command said. Two other Americans were wounded by the same shell.

U.S. fighter -bombers stepped up their raids over North Vietnam Sunday, the command spokesmen said. More than 300 "tactical air strikes" and four waves of heavy B52s hit the North from the Demilitarized Zone to within 70 miles of China. UPI correspondent Barney Seibert, reporting from La two miles south of Quang Tri, said U.S. advisers told him "the North Vietnamese are determined to hold" the city.

A captured North Vietnamese soldier reported that despite the American effort to cut the Communist supply lines, his unit in Quang Tri was receiving both supplies and fresh troops up until at least three days ago. Tuesday, July 11, 1972 Gen. Richard Tallman Communist gunners shot down an American A AH1 Cobra helicopter 11 miles Southeast of Quang Tri Saturday, the U.S. command reported, but both crewmen were rescued unharmed. Tallman, deputy adviser to the 11-province region around Saigon, was the first American general killed in action in Vietnam since May 12, 1970, when Maj.

Gen. John Dillard, commander of U.S. Army Engineers, died in a helicopter shot down by the Viet Cong. Unofficial records show that Tallman was the eighth general killed in the war. An admiral was killed in a helicopter crash last Mav: 8, and two other generals have been wounded.

U.S. Is Serious On Peace Talks WASHINGTON (AP) A State Department spokesman said Monday the United States is approaching the resumed Paris negotiations with North Vietnam this week seriously and with willingness to discuss all of the proposals now on the table-but he offered no new approaches to a settlement. News in Brief gladly examine any new proposals from the U.S." The Vietnamese once again said Hanoi considers the seven-point Communist peace proposal the correct basis for settlement of the Vietnam problem. Over the weekend, Henry Kissinger, President Nixon's top adviser on national security affairs, indicated he believed that the Communist side would be more willing to negotiate seriously than it had in the past at the talks resuming on Thursday.

Chess Duel Begins Today REYKJAVIK, Iceland (UPI) -Challenger Bobby Fischer expressed dissatisfaction Monday with some of the arrangements in the hall where his world championship chess match with Boris Spassky of the Soviet Union is scheduled to begin Tuesday. "Fischer does not like the lighting, the board and the pieces, the location of the television cameras and some other minor details," said Fred Cramer, vice president of the U.S. Chess Federation.

Cramer said the "minor details" included the thickness of the window drapes used in the hall. Fischer prefers heavier drapes, he said. "These things are troublesome but not critical," Cramer said. "'The organizers are already doing something about it." Fischer, 29, of Brooklyn, N.Y., slipped unnoticed into the hall early Monday and spent 80 minutes inspecting details arranged for the match that is scheduled to go as many as 24 games. There is a purse of $250,000 in addition to the world chess championship at stake.

Cramer said Fischer was "go, go, go" for the first game, scheduled to begin at 5 p.m. (1 p.m. EST) Tuesday. His evaluation of the American was seconded by a Catholic priest and chess grand master who serves as Fischer's second. Plea Rejected In Lod Trial ZRIFIN, Israel -Japanese terrorist Kozo Okamoto pleaded guilty Monday to taking part in the Lod airport massacre in which 26 persons died, but an Israeli military court rejected his plea and ordered the trial to proceed.

The first prosecution witness to testify was Police Commander Menashe Golan who said Okamoto has signed a confession admitting his role in the bullet-and-bomb attack May 30 at Israel's international airport. Okamoto's attorney said his cleint had signed the confession but only after being promised that he would be allowed to commit suicide. The other two members of the Japanese death squad died in the assault Okamoto said was carried out "in partnership" between his militant Japanese organization, the United Red Army, and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, an extremist Arab guerrilla group. U.S. Strength In Vietnam Drops Again SAIGON (UPI) -The number of U.S.

Army troops i in South Vietnam increased last week but overall American military strength fell by 500 men to 47,500, the U.S. command said Monday. A command spokesman said the increase of 100 in. Army strength was the result of "bureaucratic lag" in beginning the ninth phase of the U.S. military withdrawal program.

The eighth phase was completed the previous week, and President Nixon announced the ninth phase would reduce the number of Americans in South Vietnam to 39.000 by Sept. 1.

The occasion was a partial eclipse of the sun, which reached about 60 per cent totality in the Raleigh area. Richard Knapp, assistant director of the Morehead Panetarium in Chapel Hill, said the eclipse began in the Triangle area about 3:40 p.m., and reached its peak at 4:45 and was over at 5:45. The planetarium set up a small telescope to view the eclipse, attracting 25 to 30 spectators, but no scientific experiments were conducted, Knapp said. There is little scientific value in a partial eclipse, he said. Although the National Weather Service had warned that haze might obscure the view, Knapp said there was "quite good visibility" in the Triangle.

The weather service said the haze was present in the morning, but cleared up by the afternoon. The next total eclipse over the United States will be in 1979, but it won't be total in the state, he said. The next total eclipse in North Carolina will come in 2017, he added.

Nutrition Office Continued from Page One or utilities, welfare families General Assembly. "If the funds aren't available in the department, we'll have to go to the General Assembly for support. This office will help solve one of the most serious problems, the lack of coordination between federal state and local nutrition programs," Dr. Levine said. He added that the "battle of nutrition' cannot be won without one "focal point of expertise." The office would also be charged with initiating nutrition programs for young children, obtaining federal and private funds to upgrade nutrition programs, and promoting concern for nutrition in the state.

Two main "problem areas" found by the nutrition task force were low income and inadequate nutrition knowledge by homemakers, Levine said. The July 1971 nutrition survey found that 43 per cent of North Carolina homes with a per capita income under $1,000 had inadequate diets compared with about 24 per cent of those with an income above $2,000. The task force proposed several recommendations to increase the purchasing power of low-income families. They included legislation to bring more job categories under the state minimum wage laws, increasing welfare payments from 86 per cent to 100 per cent of certified needs, and support vocational education and training programs. The report specifically suggested that the minimum wage be extended to agricultural and part-time workers, and that the budget requests of the occupational education program of the state Department of Public Instruction be supported.

It also noted that when welfare payments cannot cover fixed expenses like rent Chases Eclipse widespread over the state by Wednesday.

Manning challenged a Raleigh Forward contention that the present plan has resulted in white flight from the North Raleigh neighborhoods with heavy "integration busing." John Schmidt, a Raleigh Forward representative, testified that while the Raleigh schools have lost more than 1,000 pupils this year, a comparable number has been picked up by the city's private schools.

The loss of white pupils was twice as great in the areas with heavy "integration busing" as in he rest of the city, Schmidt said. After learning that Raleigh Forward had conducted no survey to discover which families had left for private schools or if any of them were Raleigh Forward's 400 members, Manning told Schmidt: "You don't know how many of the pupils moved out to go to other schools because of integration. You don't know where the students in the socalled private schools came from. The facts you have are only that there is an increase in private school enrollment and a corresponding decrease in the public schools." Raleigh Forward's specific request is that northern suburbs now facing busing to formerly black South Raleigh elementary and junior high school's be relieved of the junior high school busing by a shift to other areas. The group suggests that the shift be made gradually, beginning with this year's seventh graders to prevent schedule disruptions for eighth and ninth graders already assigned to schools.

Asst. Supt. Thompson said that if the Raleigh Forward plan is adopted, busing in some present Raleigh Forward areas would be reduced to just one year the sixth grade when a new North Raleigh elementary school is built. Toward the end of the hearing, Raleigh Forward attorney Tucker warned that the school board plan is "picking on North Raleigh and if this continues there are going to be black schools in North Ellsberg, Trial Starts LOS ANGELES (AP) The Pentagon Papers trial got under way Monday with the defense unsuccessfully seeking dismissal of the first 110 jurors who, it claimed, all seemed to be over 30 and were unrepresentative of public opinion. The attorneys for Daniel Ellsberg and Anthony Russo contended the prospective panelists did not represent a crosssection of opinion.

usually have to dig into money budgeted for food. To increase the homemaker's knowledge of nutrition, the task force proposed the following measures: The Department of Human Resources' budget request for increase in the number of nutrition workers in local health programs be supported. "Deployment of prepared nutrition workers would enchance the quality of services so badly needed at the local level and would augment advancement of nutrition education throughout the state," the report said. Two counties currently employ nutrition workers in generalized community health programs, and nutrition workers are employed by other agencies in four other counties. The Board of Higher Education encourage nutrition education training for elementary and secondary teachers, and that the board "take steps to seek the availability" of renewal courses in nutrition education for certified elementary teachers.

The task force also recommended that the 1973 General Assembly provide the six per cent matching funds to continue the national school lunch program in North Carolina. It is estimated that this would require about $3.25 million in state funds. The 1971 study found that over one-fourth of North Caroina families and 43 per cent of the state's pre-school children exist on diets of "unquestioned poor quality." The study also found that poor nutrition is two to three times more common among blacks than whites, occurs most frequently in Eastern North Carolina and, although found primarily among the poor, reaches across all economic brackets. Continued from Page One tality was extended 116 seconds. That time could spell the difference between success and failure when data from some of the experiments is analyzed.

The moon's shadow could be seen upon a thick layer of fluffy clouds 14,000 feet below the converted Air Force cargo jet. The shadow was moving south-eastward at 1,000 miles an hour and its dark edge extended 50 miles in either direction from the flying laboratory. Beyond that in both directions the sun shone brightly on the clouds. Before totality the scientists were relaxed and some even read newspapers and magazines on a five-hour flight from Spokane, Wash. But when the final moment neared, tension mounted in the crowded observation bay.

Those in the direct path watched the sky darken as at dusk, saw stars appear and felt an evening-like drop in temperature. The sun was encircled with a ring, and as its light filtered through valleys at the edge of the moon prior to totality, the phenomenon known as Bailey's Beads became visible. The eclipse began at the Sakhalin Islands just north of Japan and its dark shadow moved across Siberia and Alaska, through Canada and over the Atlantic to vanish south of the Azores. Dusk struck the Alaska area about midmorning and University of Alaska scientists carried out a series of rocket launchings designed to record data from the moon's passage between the sun and the earth. Dr.

Franklin Branley, chairman of the Hayden Panetarium in New York, entertained 1,000 persons who gathered in the Central Park Mall to watch the eclipse, which darkened 79.5 per cent of the sun there. Branley recounted how in ancient times an eclipse was believed to be the result of a dragon swallowing the sun. To force the beast to disgorge the sun, witch doctors and other practitioners of such arts chanted and danced until the. sun reappeared. Scientists from Canada's National Research Council were in East Quoddy, Novia Scotia, 85 miles northwest of Halifax, shortly before the eclipse moved out into the Atlantic.

Terry Sanford, a dark horse in the presidential race. SCOTT Gov. Bob Scott and other North Carolina Democratic leaders were predicting Monday in advance of the national convention's opening session that a majority of the Tar Heel delegates would oppose seating the contested McGovern delegates from California. Scott told the Associated Press: "I'm going to have to go with the Credentials Committee on McGovern. I don't think people in North Carolina want him to be the nominee.

And he could easily be the nominee if the committee's recommendations not to seat his California delegates aren't followed by the convention." McGovern supporters were saying in advance of the Monday night session that the South Dakotan would receive at least 20 North Carolina votes in the California challenge. North Carolina Democratic Chairman John Church didn't agree. "I'd put it a lot closer to eight," Church told the AP. "I don't think he's got anything like 20 supporters in this Former State Sen. Jeff Allen of Biscoe, a 'Tar Heel delegate, said of McGovern, "The folks back: home just aren't for him.

He's talking too liberal for us." NAMED Gov. Bob Scott announced Monday the appointment of James B.

Scott said that Hunt, a Wilson attorney, "is uniquely qualified to serve on this important council. He has a strong academic background in economic development and agricultural policy analysis.

He has also put his knowledge to practical use by serving as an economic adviser to the King of Nepal." -34 min. -43 min. -34 min, -43 min. -19 min -33 min, -15 min -17 min. -15 min, -17 min.
