CAMBRIDGE, Though many men say they should help with housework and child care, the wife is still almost always the one who changes diapers, washes dishes and oversees household routine, a new survey has t ; J found. Despite the impact of the womens movement, the study reports that 90 percent of wives and 85 percent of hnsbands say the woman does all or most of the household chores. The study, prepared by the Harvard based Project on Human Sexual Development, surveyed 1,400 mothers and fathers in Cleveland who had children between ages 3 and 11. Eliot Tozer, a spokesman for the researchers, said the findings reflect the views of people throughout the United States. The sample represents Cleveland very accurately, and we think that it represents the United States accurately, also, he said. and, overall, it found that not much has changed there. Most parents handle the subject the same way their own parents did Usually, that means avoiding any mention of it. The vast majority of children receive little or no direct Information about erotic activity or its social consequences from their parents, the report said. To find out what kind of examples parents set for their children about sex roles, the researchers asked men if One of the areas it examined was how parents teach their children about sex they thought it was the woman's responsibility to run the house and care for the children. Half the men said it was not. But even in families in which the woman has a paying job, the wife still dot's most of the housework, the study found In fewer than 3 percent of the households, the parents report that tte father does most of the household task Twelve percent said they share '' work equally. In the vast majority ... the home is the wife's responsibility, whether or not Air Hijacking Must parents view sex education as job. A majority of parents said that after themselves, television is the most important source of sex information for she participates in the paid labor force." the report said ' Even those fathers who do not necessarily think this should be so do not reort sharing more equally in household labor The survey, directed by Elizalieth J Roberts, also found Almost 40 percent of the mothers who have girls between 9 and 11 years old say they have never discussed menstruation with them Fewer than 5 percent of the fathers ever talk to their children atxnjt the their children. While most parents discuss pregnancy with their children, fewer than of the mothers and 10 15 percent percent of the fathers ever mention it is caused by intercourse Fewer than 2 percent of the fathers and 6 percent of the mothers ever talk about birth control with their children. sex. pre-marit- wifes Roots Suit His Joke Fell Settlement On Deaf Ears On Venusian Clouds Announced CHARLESTON, Probe Data Released S.C.

Courlander had charged in the damage suit that Haley largely copied from Courlanders novel, The African, which was published in 1967, nine years before Roots. Haley had testified for eight days, conceding on the stand that three brief passages from Courlanders book appeared in Roots." He maintained he hadnt read the book and that material from "The African was passed along s to him by friends and while he was researching his book. Courlander sought half the profits of Haleys book and 60 percent of the profits realized by ABC television for its dramatization of the book, which had a bigger audience than any other program ever. Money terms of the settlement were not disclosed and the lawyers for the various parties declined to talk about it. vhich reportedly has Roots, earned millions, was an account of Haleys search for his familys roots, tracing through slavery in America and back lo Africa.

We would buy ourselves six months, maybe nine months, put the economy in a straitjacket, and get nothing out of Schultze said in response to a it, question. He also said that unemployment could edge up slightly over 6 percent next year from the present rate of 5.8 percent. Schultze and Blumenthal used slightly different figures for their estimate of economic growth next year, with Blumenthal being slightly more pessimistic. - Blumenthal said it would be "appropriate for the economy to grow between 2 percent and 3 percent, down from about 3.7 percent this year, while Schultze said growth would be "something under 3 percent. Administration Forecasts Administration forecasts for the economy have been gradually edging downward since Carter announced his program on Oct. 24 and his dollar support package on Nov. 1. Both plans rely on sharply higher interest rates, which have the effect of dampening economic growth. Blumenthal also told the panel that initial reaction to the administration's $30 billion program to support the dollar has been favorable. As the full realization of the extent of our measures and the degree of our determination to persevere spreads, I believe we will see further dollar strength in the markets, he added. The subcommittee is studying the problems the U.S. dollar is encountering on foreign monetary exchanges. Meanwhile, the Business Council issued its economic forecasts for 1979, saying a recession probably would be avoided, but that inflation would be worse than the administration is forecasting. It projected an increase in economic growth of between 2 percent and 3 percent and an inflation rate of between 7.5 percent amd 8 percent. The administration is saying Inflation will be reduced to the 6.5 to 7 percent range. n The council said inflation could be the same as in 1978 and "substantially ahove Carters target. Opinion Arthur Burns, former chairman of the Federal Reserve Board, said in a speech Thursday night that if a recession does occur it should not cause panic or a reversal of present economic policies. Recessions are passing developments in the life of a nation, and government that becomes obsessed with such phenomena cannot develop the sustained policies that are needed to assure a better economic future for its people, he said. Burns, who is now a resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute here, placed the chief blame for the nation's current inflationary problems on the budget deficits of the past decade. too many years we have engaged in a national fantasy imagining that we could achieve desirable social goals at a bargain price, he "For said. jn Kidney Surgery BOSTON (AP) Kidney transplants, once dangerous, have become so safe under new surgical techniques that the operations are now preferable to dialysis for many patients, doctors say.

Mainly by finding ways to stop a common complication of infection the surgeons have nartransplants rowed the risk of death in patients who receive kidneys from unrelated accident victims to 5 percent. The death rate for these patients at other hospitals is 14 percent. The doctors reported their successes in the New England Journal of Medicine. The only alternative to transplants for patients whose kidneys have failed is dialysis, the cleansing of the blood by g a machine. Dialysis requires treatment sessions three times a week. About 37,000 Americans now receive dialysis, and the number is expected to increase by 50 percent within the next six or seven years. UntU recently, the death rate of people receiving transplants was high. Through 1974, 28 percent of those who received organs from unrelated cadavers died within one year of their operation. end-stag- - The defense rested Tuesday.

Sudler said the Internal Revenue Service had a search warrant giving them permission to look at the discotheques books in connection with an investigation of the flashy playland. The agents seized the books when Schrager appeared Thursday morning, then found the drugs, Sudler said. The disco was sealed off while agents searched it.

The fingerprints came from the van and from a wallet that belonged to the night manager at the cargo depot and was handled by one of the robbers, according to reports. Police say the van was used in the getaway by five masked bandits in the robbery early Monday at the Lufthansa Airlines cargo depot. It was found Wednesday night in Brooklyn. Spokesman Frank Monserrate of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey which runs the area's airports refused to confirm that fingerprints had been taken from the van. Authorities also declined to comment on reports that fingerprints had been lifted from the wallet. Officials have said one of the bandits took family pictures out of the wallet and told the manager he and his family would die if he did not open a safe. The manager complied with the demand. Police have distributed composite sketches of two bandits, based on the memory of one airline employee who saw them when they took off their masks. The FBI has said at least $5 million In currency had been stolen along with an undetermined amount of foreign cash and an estimated $850,000 in gold and jewels.
