The whole bill for this law rammed through Congress last December will be around $50 billion, and many leaders in the auto, oil and chemical industries say motorists and the public may get little or nothing in return for the money.

On Saturday, meanwhile, ex-Heavyweight Champ Muhammad Ali will appear on ABC-TV "Wide World of Sports" to discuss the 8-0 Supreme Court ruling that reversed a lower court decision and declared that, as a Muslim, he was entitled to draft exemption as a conscientious objector.

By RICK DU BROW HOLLYWOOD (UPI) The July 4 weekend will offer a number of special telecasts concerning the Supreme Court from its recent major decisions about the Pentagon papers and Muhammad Ali, to an interview with Chief Justice Warren Burger. Tonight, for instance, CBS-TV will present a one-hour broadcast entitled "The Court and a Free Press." This program will detail the decision of the Supreme Court in the case of The New York Times' and The Washington Post's publication of the Vietnam War documents amid much controversy. CBS-TV says the hour "wiU examine the historic decision and the events that led to it." Also tonight, the Pentagon papers will be a central subject of a one-hour prime time NBC-TV interview with Dean Rusk, who was Secretary of State through the administrations of Presidents Kennedy and Johnson, and who will be questioned about decisions involving the Vietnam War during those years. Rusk is now a professor at the University of Georgia. And the program, "An NBC News Special: Dean Rusk Discusses the Pentagon Papers," is scheduled to be taped this afternoon in Atlanta, with Edwin Newman and Barbara Walters as the interviewers.

VETERAN'S CORNER By TONY GRODZKI Veterans in training under the G.I. Bill are entitled to more money when they get married or have children. For example, a full time student in school will have his $175 a month increased to 205 when he gets married and to $230 if he becomes a father. Veterans taking cooperative, apprenticeship, on-the-job or farm cooperative training also have their VA payments in creased when they get married and have children.

Apprenticeship and on-the-job trainees get additional payments for only two dependents, while the others get them for all dependents. Previously veterans were paid the additional amounts only from the date they notified the VA of their hew dependent. Under new legislation however, students have one year from the event to submit the marriage license or birth certificate to the VA. Since the new law is not retroactive, veteran students who were married or had a child before December 24, 1970, and failed to notify the VA, can be paid only from that date.

The extension of the route totals 22 miles.
