He said it has been deter mined that OTI could undergo a Belgian Cardinal Urges Council To Admit Women VATICAN CITY (UPII - Leo Cardinal Suencns, one of the four executive moderators ap pointed by Pope Paul VI to di rect Ecumenical Council discus sions, today asked council fa thers to admit women to their secret sessions in St. Peter's Basilica. . . The Belgian cardinal also asked that lady auditors, admit ted for the first time to the sec ond session, be increased in number and made more repre sentative in their selection. He also suggested that repre sentatives of religious orders who teach the Gospel through out the world, both men and women, be invited to the coun cil sessions. Cites Women's Uole The cardinal argued that women make up half the pop ulation of the world and that on this basis they should have some voice in the debates on the nature and role of the Catholic Church in the modern world. . The cardinal clearly appeared to mean that both nuns and lay women should be' admitted to council sessions. Cardinal Suencns said that not only members of the hier archy have special gifts from the Holy Ghost, but all mem bers of the church. These gifts, if not directed by church authority, can be "dan gerous and disorderly," but the hierarchy must not make of the church a purely "administrative apparatus" and thereby limit RECOVER MONEY BAGS KUALA LUMPUR, Malaya (UPlr- A MO-man search party combed through swamps and a maze of rubber trees for six hours before finding two canvas bags containing a $50, '000 payroll that had been dropped from a plane a mile too soon.

"It will be a crucial day for all of us." Birmingham policemen have come out strongly asainst the hiring of Negroes. They have warned the council it would re sult in demoralization of the po lice force. George Seibels, chairman of the council's Public Safety Committee, has given no indi cut of $105,000 in its budget without lowering the quality of education offered at the insti tute. His report on possible cut hacks has been sent to Salem for further study by higher edu cation officials. Further, Purvine said OTI faces possible slashes of at least $550,000 in the building program at the new campus site north cast of Klamath Falls. the freedom of the people of God, he said. It was in this light that the cardinal suggested a wider rep resentation of religious and lay persons, both male and female, at the council. Church-State Debate U.S. bishops also were report ed preparing a statement on the need for a modern view of church-state relations. This is one reason for the U.S. hierarchy's strategic si lence on a sentence in a docu ment now being debated which clashes with the cherished U.S. Constitutional concept of sep aration of church and state. The sentence says that Cath olic faithful will "legitimately oppose the-unfortunate separa tion" of church and state. It is in the third chapter of a dogmatic constitution on the church which deals with the role of Catholic laymen in the church and the world. Council fathers began debate on it a week ago. . - . Tho.

But in formed observers expected the committee would recommend refusal to hire the Negroes. King told an estimated 2.000 Negroes at a rally Monday night that Negroes from other parts of the country will come to join in the demonstrations if Negro police'are not hired. "I have traveled to Califor nia, Michigan, New York and Indiana mobilizing national sup port for this movement," King The main item that faces re moval is the radioactive iso tope laboratory, he said. Other items that may have to be cut include lawns, sprinklers, land scaping, streets, parking lots and the lighting system. Purvine explained that t h e radioactive isotope laboratory is designed to be used to train atomic technicians for two hours each day and serve as a physics laboratory the other eight hours of the school day. Purvine also gave a brief progress report on the new campus construction. He said a classroom building and a laboratory building are ncaring completion and will probably be finished in a few weeks. Work has started on the new dormitory and the gymnasium and administration building are proceeding.

The victim, James Small, 27, was still listed in critical condi tion, but doctors said his blood pressure had risen after he re ceived 36 pints of blood in trans fusions. A hospital spokesman said Small was "conscious, re sponsive and alert." Coast Guard officials, mean while, were engaged in a lively debate over who was re sponsible for the accident that almost claimed Small's life. Small was among 12 members of the Dolphin Club competing in a long distance swim across San Francisco Bay when the 32 foot fishing boat, the 'Pacific Dawn, cut through the swim mers at an estimated speed of 12 knots. The boat's propeller sliced off Small's right 1 e g above the knee, and small's left thumb. ', A Dolphin Club official said the Coast Guard had been no tified in advance of the race and implied that the Coast Guard should have provided an escort boat for the swimmers. Rear Adm. Allen Winberg of the Coast Guard denied having received notification of the race. "However, even if the Coast Guard had been advised, the accident still could have taken place," Winberg said, "because the Coast Guard docs not have the facilities to escort such swims." Dolphin Club members agreed that fast action by the Coast Guard probably saved Small's life after the mishap. A Coast Guard cutler reached Small and brought him ashore within seven minutes after receiving a distress call from the Pacific Dawn.

The man tagged by Senate crime investigators as the "boss of all bosses" of the Cosa Nostra syndicate, howev er, will remain in Leavenworth federal prison hospital while the appeal is pending. He is serving a 15-year sen tence and the Justice Depart ment said that he would be in eligible for bail while his attor ney argued the case. Disappointed By Ruling Government officials who had been hoping the Supreme Court would reject Genovese's bid for a new trial were keenly disap pointed by the ruling.
