Whales are saved from ice Two California gray whales were rescued from an icy prison near Barrow, Alaska, Wednesday when two Soviet icebreakers crushed ice nearly three stories deep to reach the trapped animals. The whales, which had been trapped for nearly three weeks, were reported to be in good physical condition. Rescue efforts were hampered Tuesday when the whales refused to swin through a shallow strip of water two miles nearer to the oncoming icebreakers. However, another at-tempt to coax the whales through the shoal later in the day was successful. To reach the nearest completely ice-free water, the whales must now swim 200 miles to the Chukchi Sea.

COMMUNITY KCCM to feature "Corrections: What Should Society Expect" "Corrections: What Should Society Ex-pect," an address by J. Michael Quinlan, will be featured live on KCCM 91.1 FM, Minnesota Public Radio on Thursday, Nov. 3, at 12 noon. As director of the Federal Bureau of Prisons, J. Michael Quinlan is responsible for the confinement of over 44,000 offenders committed to the custody of the Attorney General. Of all the social problems, incarceration of criminals stands out as one of the most con-troversial and difficult to solve. Issues such as capital punishment often gain public attention, because of press coverage and human rights' appeals. But equally distressing are the issues of overcrowding, premature parole, the slow mechanism of the judicial system, and — not least of all — the ambivalence of our society's moral responsibilities to remove dangerous persons from harm's way. Underlying these concerns are compelling economic issues, such as the overwhelming cost of maintaining each prisoner per year. As crime rates soar, a growing need will need to be faced to find new directions and new answers to old questions. These issues will be addressed by J. Michael Quilan in this program of the Westminster Town Hall Forum series presented by Westminster Presbyterian Church, Minneapolis, Minn.
