A United Mine Workers
Union official said today " it
would be a bad move" for the
Carter administration · to
attempt to force striking coal
rniners back to work and said
he doubted if the miilers will
return to work ' even ' if
ordered to do so by the
goveriunenl.
Gov. James A. Rhodes
Monday called on the carter
a!lministration for ."positive
federal action" to solve the
seven-week coal strike an,d
said, it would be a
"catastrophe" if electric
utilities ran out of coal.
"I don 't think the
government should put its
nose into lt," John Guzek,
president of UMW District 6,
headquartered In Bellaire,
Ohio, with 16,000 members in
eastern Ohio and the northern
panhandle of West Virginia,
told UPI today In a telephone
interview.
"If the miners went hack·to
work, that . would let the
electric companies build up
stockpiles and take the
pressure off the. · coa l

companies.
"And I don't think the
miners would go back to
work. AJJ far as I am
co ncerned,

Rhodes, in a lettt!r to

Ohio's major electric utilities

the middle of March.
Although Rhodes did not
name the utility , he
apparently was talking about
Columbus &amp; Southern Ohio
Electric Co. which has less
tlian a 60-day supply
temalnlng. ,
"While "Ohio has taken
. steps ID protect our citizens
and stretch the available coal
supply, I believe the only real
solution to averting a catastrophe rests principally with -

positive federal action," said
Rhodes .
"Due to the inevitable- time
required to re"store full coal'
production and delivery to
generating fa c ilties, Ohio
faces a potential crisis in
e l ectrical generating
production if the current
labor dispute is not settled."
Guzek said" he was
convinced that the large coal
companies are part of major
oil companies and are
deliberately hamperi n g
negotiations.
"I think the big oil
companies that are into the
coal industry want to drive
the price of oll up," said
Guzek. "They are saying to
hell with coal right now. That

Smoking:
risk to fetus
By Lawrence Lamb, M.D.
DEAR DR LAMB - I have
a dear frtend who smokes at
least a pack of ctgarettes a
day She IS four months preg·
nant.lam concerned because
I've been told that cigarette
smoking could cause hann to
the baby She also takes
nerve ptlls I would like your
advtce on this.
DEAR READER - Many
women who smoke have nor·
mal babies, but there t.s

cer~

talnly an mcreased risk to the
pregnancy. Women who
smoke are more prone to a
llllScamage One way this
may happen IS that the
rucotme m the tobacco smoke
l'Onstncts the artertes m the
placenta and may cause local
areas of damage to the
placenta The damaged
placenta 1s unable to sustam
the baby and an abortion
follows
The second problem IS that
babtes born to smoking
mothers wetgh less and as a
group are more prone to convulstons
Medications of all types are
apt to concentrate m the
developmg baby's body at
higher Ievell! than In the
mother's body. A good example 1s alcohol AJ; adults we
have enzymes that help us
metabohze alcohol. The
developmg baby does not
have these enzymes yet and
may be unable to metabolize
alcohol raptdly. The rcsul' IS
the baby's alcohol level will
be many times greater than
drtnklng Dllffi8-to-be.
All things COilSldered - if a
pregnant woman wants to be
good to her baby she should

question Ia on nutrillon My
husband and I both work. I
leave around 10 a m and
return home at 6 p m We
have two children age 7 and
10 When I get horne, of
course, everyooe wants to eat
at once.
Is 11 essential to good health

Milk would be Included, of

children if they desired. The
children's lunches are the
usual school lunch fare of

DEAR READER- '11&gt;ere is
no reason nutritionally why a
meal has to be hot Nutri·
Uonally, cold roast beef iB as
good as hot roast beef. In
fact, hot food lB Irritating to
some people's stomachs It iB
sunply a matter of taste and
the Influence 1t has m getting
people to eat
My only objection to cold
meals IS that lots of the food
people serve for such meals is
high 1n fat and cholesterol.
That mcludes most of the cold
cuts and cheese'. But you can
certainly depend upon
vegetables and fresh frwt
plus usmg a cold roast turkey
or ch1cken or even cold lean
roast beef w1thout that bemg
a problem. Tuna salad or
chicken salad can be fiJ:ed as
a low calone food
YOU need to OVOid being too

why your plan won't work.

Interview It was possible that

Initiated by members of
Congress, not the president
Rep. Joe Waggonner, DLa., known as one of 11le best

said Carter's plan "is gomg to

before Congress lB fmished.
"He (Carter) has a rough

"The big problem iB gomg to
be to keep the Congress from
lllCreaslng the las cut as they

The 011ln sticking pomts, In

congressmen, were Carter's
plans to cut hack on business
entertauunent deductions,
tighten taxation of U.S firms
overseas, eliminate federal
deducllons for sales, gasoline
and some other state and
local taxes , and curtail
medical and casualty
deductions.
Ullman smd the portion of
the plan deallng with

tax matters was too
controversial even to

UPI Television Writer
NEW YORK (UPI)- Who says television lSil't varied when11
viewers can watch a Spliced out comedy In the"!!yle of ·~:
documentary or a two,part documentary about the Splice race
The comedy, one of the funnier efforts to appear on the
llCfeen of late, 1s NBC's "Peepmg Times," a satirtcal news
magazine show that will be broadcast Jan. 25, 9-10 p.m.,
Eastern time
One of the best segments of the show deals with j!legal
aliens, .m which a professwnal alten smuggler IS asked hiS
favorite method "By mall," he sa&gt;d. "Parcel post." And the
audience watches while he packages an illegal alien for
shipping.
There's a section on Bigfoot, and the town that fakes
evidence of the creature's existence. The doubting televiSion
intervtewer is shown a home mOVIe of Bigfoot that leaves the
audience With the question, "Why does Bigfoot wear an ankle
bracelet?"
Other nnagUl8Uve subjects explored by Miles Rathbourne
(Alan Oppenheimer) and Dan Cochran (David Letterman)
Include a self-aervtce hospital, the dance class at a refonned
priSOn, and the story of a New York longshoreman who wants
to become a nun
Then there's the story of crime m America and a look at
people serving Ume for having committing vlctlmless crimes,
like the woman who removed the tag from her couch - you
know, the one that says "Do not remove under penalty of law I"
- and the fellow who taped a baseball game without the
express written consent of the commissioner
David Frost and Marvin Mlnoff are the esecutlve producers
of the show, created, produced and directed by Rudy DeLuca
and Barry Levinson
Over on PBS, "Nova" marks the 20th anniversary of Amerl· ·
ca's first venture Into space with a two one-bour programs to
be broadcast Jan. 25 and Feb. I, 8 p.m. Eastern time (check
local listings).
The first show, "One Small Step," 1races the space race
from 1957 when the Soviets launched Sputnik through
America'semerglng dominance crowned by the landing on the
moon, through to the SovletAmencan handshake m space In .
July. 1975.
'
The second stanza is titled "The Final Frontier," which
might frike a chord wtth "Star Trek" fans, whose presslire
led to naming the first space shuttle the Enterprise
But the real fascination of the second ahow lies wtth other
developmeniB that might he within our grasp.
These are the visions of Gerard O'Neill, a theoretical
physicist at Princeton University, who asks, "In the long run,
is a planetary surface the place for a technological
civlllzatlon ?"
Instead, he suggests the colonizaUon of space and predicts
that within 200 years there will be more people living m space
than on earth

Ewbank still refuses to answer
CANTON, OHIO (UPI) Weeb Ewbank, tbe ooly coach
to wm champtonshlps m both
the National and Amer&gt;can
Football Leagues and one of
ftve newly-elected pro
football Hall of Famers, still
refuses to answer The
Question.
Who was better - Johnny
Urutas or Joe Namath'
Ewbank was fortunate to
have coached both super
quarterbacks, Unltas guiding
the BalUmore Colts to NFL
titles in !958 and 1959 and
N8011th leadmg the New
York J~ts to a milestone
trtumph over the Colts In
Super Bowl Ill. The 1958
game often has been caUed
"the greatest football game
ever played" and the Jets'
trtumph In Super Bowl Dl
was a pivotal contest which
established the equality of the
fledgling ,' AFL
and
contr&gt;buted m&gt;ghtily to the
consolidation of some of its
teams into the NFL.
Elected along with Ewbank
were wide receiver Lance
Alworth, one of the AFL's
first stars; lmebacker Ray
Nttschke 01 the famous VInce
Lornbardl Green Bay Packer
teams of the 1960s, Larry
Wilson, former free safely of
the St. Loula Cardinals, and
Tuffy Leemans, a hardnmnlng fullback for the New
York Giants In the 19308 and
194011.

The five men were chosen
by the Hall of Fame's 29member board of selel'lors,
composed of reporters from
each NFL City, at an annual
selection meeting m New
Orleans Jan. 14 Their
election brought the number
of Hall of Fame members to
98 and they wW be formally
Inducted In Canton, July 29,
when the Philadelphia Eagles
play the Miami Dolphins In
the annual AFC.NFC Hall of
Fame game.
The reactions of the new
Hall of Famers to the1r
election amounted to a
commentary on some 40
years of pro footbaU ·
Ewbank. "I am fortunate
enough to have had good ball
players, to have won
championships m both
leagues and to have been
admitted to the Indiana Han
of Fame and now thiS If I
ever make to to heaven ' I've •
really had a great life, I am
fortunate to have had two of
the best quarterbacks
(Unltas and Na011th) and
people have' alwaya tried to
get me fo say which was beat.
I always say I was fortunate
to have had two of the beat.
The 1959 Colt team was the
best I ever coached."
Atworth· "When I got the
call, It was a shock. I had put
&gt;tout of my mind. ! didn't feel
anyme out of the AFL would
get lt.I called my mother and
dad and I told them and we all
cried. ·I was In the stands In
¥

Miami when Weeb's Jets beat
Baltimore and I loved it.
(Turning to Ewbank), I ap.
preclate what you did,
Weeb."
Nltschl\e "When they
called' me, I satd 'you've got
to be kidding.' I thought It
was a crank call. My wife
said she watched me take the
call and said she thought
there had been a death in tbe
family I grew up m the
suburbs of Chicago and it was
rough. I lost my dad when I
was .three and my mother
when I was 13. Sports kept me
straight. I played lor one of
the greatest teams ever put
together and to be the first
defensive player chosen for
the Hall from that team is
something very special "
Wilson "Yes, I or&gt;gUl8ted
the safety blitz m a game
against the Giants but I don't
remember the year. I was too
slow to be a rumlng back or a
cornerback. I'm surprised at
bemg selected. I never had an
opportunity ' to play on a
championship team like the
rest of these guys.''

Bob Howsam. president of

argued that the Blue sale

UMW loses .in appeal
opposing arbitration
&lt;

•'

WASHINGTON - The
Supreme Court, in a defeat
for the United Mine Workers
of America, opened the )Yay
Monday for two West
Virginia mine operators to
take their complaint about
1976 work stoppages to arbitration .

The suit was brought by
Cedar Coal Co. in Kanawha
County, W. Va ., and Southern
Ohio Coal Co. in Marion
County as a result. of work

stoppages by members .of
UMWA Locals 1766 and 1949
respectively after pickets
appeared at the entrance to
their mines . The companies

sought damages on grounds
that they had a "no-strike"
contract with the union and it
was violated.
The justices declined
without comment to review
the union's appeal from a 4th
U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals
ruling sending to arbitration
the issue of whether union

members should have
crossed "stranger" picket
lines to go to work before
·iurther proceedings on strike
damages.
The union argued in its

appeal that it cannot be
required to submit any
dispute to arbitration if it has
not agreed to do so.
" Arbitration is HI-equipped

and ill-suited, especially in
the coal industry, to pro cess
strike damage claims, Which

can amount ... to multimillion dollar claims," the
union argued .'
The 4th Circuit, said the
question of Whether union
locals "might be required to
cross

the · picket

lines

established should be decided
by the arbitrators prior to
proceeding with the damages
aspects of t he cases."
A Senate subcommittee
just last week approved an
amendment empowering
employ~rs

to seek injundions

barring wildcat strikes in
response
to
so-called
''stranger picketing." under

which workers at one facility
........ or even total outsiders -

can and often do ·close doWII
another facility without union
authorization. It is a corrimon
practice in the coalfields,
where UMW members
respect

Unes,
authorized or not.

economist. Dr. Donald Chaflln, chairman of Wilmington

prices have been as high as f45 per hundredweight.
"Hog producers are responding to profitable prlces by
increasing produdion," said Chaflin. 11The. nation's ~ine
