Offshore Oil Structure Plans to Stir Big Fight By LOUIS CASSELS Uuited Press International A new batt'e is shaping up between those concerned about America's j need for more sources of energy and those who worry about pollution of the environment At issue this time are plans by the U.S. government and the oil industry to build giant offshore terminals at which modern large supertankers could unload their sticky cargoes of crude petroleum, '.far-- salient facts of the dispute are as follows: The United States, because of its prodigious consumption of energy, is becoming more and more dependent on imported oil Projections indicate domestic production will meet less than half the nation's petroleum needs by 1985.

"You just can't decide to make a major change, even of a half degree, without help from ground telemetry. "It's just impossible, absurd," he said. Cunningham said the Apollo 7 crew later gave a copy of the picture to Col. Frank Frand-stette- r, owner of the Las Brisas. Richard Underwood, a photo assistant at the Manned Spacecraft Center (MSG) said the photograph included more than just the hotel grounds. "It's a large complex and showed up better than I thought it would," he said.

George A. Simms was sentenced to 25 to 40 years in prison for. the 1969 slaying of Capp James Bird. The Wyoming Su&reme Court affirmed the conviction early in 1972. Simms asked the U.S. Supreme Court to throw out the sentence on grounds the trial jury did not have the same percentage of blacks as the general population of Natrona County, site of the trial. Simms said Natrona County juries ate picked from rolls of property owners and since Negroes are mostly tenants in the county, they do not appear in proportionate numbers on the tax assessment rolls. That means "the entire Negro population of the county ...(is) arbitrarily excluded from jury service, all of which is prejudicial to and d'siriminates against the defendant" Simms' appeal contended. A jury without blacks is not a "jury of peers" in Simms" case, the appeal contended. The prosecution said the official who draws up lists of jurors has no forced into waiving his right to bar testimony by his wife at his trial. He said Norma Jean Simms was not his wife at the time of the preliminary hearing, but they were married before the trial. The trial judge ruled the statement she made at the preliminary hearing could be introduced as evidence. Simms' lawyer said this was an erroneous ruling. In his challenge to the racial makeup of tne jury, Simms mentioned another Wyoming case that went to the Supreme Court Lofton versus Wyoming, which Erospective their race and thus he said made the same contencould not discriminate against tion.
