Major aspects of Peking's policy include: Readiness to receive Mr. Nixon before May, 1972, even if U.S.

diplomatic efforts prevent China from being seated in the United Nations this fall on its own terms.

Determination to contine to reject any plan to reconvene the Geneva conference as a way of ending the Indochina war.

It also would provide for a national education program on the metric system.

The defendants, nine men and three women, laughed, shouted and raised fists in black-power salutes.

The Panthers and police traded shots for several hours the night of Sept. 15 at the Desire housing project headquarters of the Panthers. No one was injured. The charges specifically stated that the 12 black militants tried to kill five individual officers. Defense attorney Ernest Jones had told the jury that a history of 400 years of brutality to black people in America was enough to convince the Panthers that the New Orleans Police Department had come to kill them.

Police Superintendent Clarence Giarrusso and several other officers had testified that they moved into Desire after a night in which two undercover agents were brutally beaten at the militants' headquarters. Police said there were also fire-bombings, snipings and assaults that night. Both sides centered their arguments on two main points: Who fired first, and what was the intent of the Panthers in firing on police? No prosecution witness said he saw any defendant actually shooting.

Park he This is Residents Subdivision BY DOROTHY WEDDELL Free Press Real Estate Writer Apparently a park is not accepted by people as being a park--until it is "enclosed" or defined by non-park structures. At least that's the conclusion reached by Douglas A.

Colwell, president of Douglas Homes after studying a survey taken at Highgate on the Green, a single-family home subdivision on Loon Lake Rd. west of Benstein in Wixom. Colwell decided to take the survey after he noticed that families tended to select lots at a distance from the park. Lots abutting the park areas cost no more. The idea of "open space" residential planning is relatively new in the Detroit area.

However, developers Thompson-Brown have been quite successful in marketing their "commons" communities. When Colwell decided to incorporate park areas in his land plan, he laid out a fouracre park with play facilities in the geographical center of the community. Few trees are in this park. Over in a far corner of the subdivision, he put a small one-acre park with Council Schedules Workshop The worldwide trade association for the shopping center industry, the International Council of Shopping (ICSC), will launch Centers. 1972 program of special events with an ICSC Education Week at Michigan State University, August 9-13.

Shopping center professionals from throughout Canada, the United States, and Puerto Rico will convene for the council's Management and Promotion Institutes held simultaneously at the East Lansing campus' Kellogg Center for Continuing Education. Each institute, divided into basic and advanced courses, will offer training in shopping center skills with practical classroom, seminar and workshop sessions on lease analysis, cash flow, budgeting, merchants associations, market research, public demonstrators and their rights, increasing sales, and many others. THE COURSES will be led by authorities in the industry such as John D. Smith, ICSC past president and center manager for Atlanta's Lenox Robert L. Bermant, National Shopping Centers Rye, N.Y.; Ronald Gamble and Lawrence Treger, both with the Rouse Columbia, Bruce Andrews of Shopping Centers Southfield; and Dr.

Paul E. Smith of Michigan State. Both institutes' basic courses are intensive programs geared toward providing the basics for those just entering or planning to enter the specialized fields of shopping center management or promotion. The Basic Management course is the only one of its kind given in the entire country. The advanced courses are designed for the professional with at least one year's experience.

These courses are qualifying prerequisites for examinations for ICSC's Certified Shopping Center Manager (CSM) and Accredited Shopping Center Promotion Director (ASPD) designations. Registration fee for each of the five-day institutes is $180 for members and $240 for nonmembers and must be arranged through ICSC headquarters at 445 Park Avenue, New York, N.Y. 10022. Plush Footing The trend to indoor-outdoor carpeting has led to some imaginative uses of floor covering. Suppliers report that some families have carpeted shower stalls, others have carpeted garage floors.

Highgate's "passive" Slow to Open many trees but no play or recreational equipment. Highgate homeowners pay $30 each for yearly maintenance costs in the two park areas. Colwell wanted to find out how families felt about the parks once they had lived with them for a while. If they didn't like them, or didn't make use of them, there would be no point in planning more park areas in the remaining stages of the subdivision's development. The residents' answers to Colwell's questionnaire surprised him.

Seventy- percent of the families said the open space idea was a significant factor in their decision to buy in Highgate. Thirty percent found the park areas more appealing to live with than they had expected. Of those families living on one of the parks, 75 percent reported their location desirable, 12 percent said it was "all right," and another 12 percent felt the park to be somewhat of a nuisance. More than 80 percent felt the open space idea made for a safer community and no one felt it was less safe. Almost 90 percent preferred the asphalt trails in the parks as a means of subdivision mobility as opposed to city sidewalks in front of the houses at an additional cost.

ANOTHER surprising statistic to the developer was the volume of use the parks get. Over 75 percent of the families use the park-for walking, bicycling, talking to neighbors, or as a children's playground. deforty percent of the responpreferred the smaller, shaded, passive (no play equipment) park to the larger one. Colwell's last multiplechoice question was: If you were transferred to another area, would you look for your new home (A) in a community without an open space design, park Accept Space open space design, (C) open space would not be a factor one way or the other. Only six percent marked while 82 percent marked Obviously, Colwell will include other park areas in the subdividion, which will eventually cover 118 acres of homes in the $28,000 to $40,000 price range.
