 Pat Nixon Bjt 350
By WILL GRIMSLEY
AP Special Correspondent
    PASADENA, Calif. (AP) - Pat Nixon had some bowl day advice Monday
for those millions of housewives frustrated by husbands who keep
glued to the television screens for the weekend and holiday football
games.
    ''They should get right in there and join him - that's what
I do,'' the First Lady said in an informal interview during a visit
here to attend the Rose Bowl game between her alma mater, Southern
California, and Ohio State.
    The President's wife said there were misconceptions about how much
football Nixon gets to see.
    ''He loves football - and so do I,'' she said. ''But he usually
works while he watches and there are constant interruptions. When he
has to go to the telephone, I make it a practice to try to keep up
with what is happening so I may fill him in.''
    Mrs. Nixon flew in Sunday night from Camp David, where the
President watched his favorite Washington Redskins and the Miami
Dolphins win their way into the Super bowl. She checked into the
Pasadena hotel which is the Ohio State headquarters.
    ''Going up an elevator I heard all those Ohio State people
talking about the game and predicting what they were going
to do to Southern Cal,'' she said. ''It was all I could do
to keep my mouth shut.''
    ''But today I'll be cheering my lungs out for the Trojans.''
    Mrs. Nixon, who was graduated from the Southern California's
School of Education in 1937, rode in the Rose Bowl parade behind
the Southern Cal band and in front of the Trojan float. She
was escorted by Dr. John Hubbard, Southern California president,
and Mrs. Hubbard.
    ''I am sure we will win,'' Mrs. Nixon predicted before the game.
    The President's wife acknowledged that if one doesn't like
sports, one might get lonesome around the White House.
    ''Take Julie, for instance. She has to look at a lot of baseball,''
Mrs. Nixon said, referring to her younger daughter, Mrs. David
Eisenhower
    ''David, you know, is wild about baseball.''
    And the President? While his wife prepared to watch the Rose Bowl,
Nixon was entertaining at the White House. His guest Redskins
Coach George Allen and his family.

 Deadly Prank 370
    NEWHALL, Calif. (AP) - Sheriff's deputies retrieved from a
canyon Sunday a body thought to be that of a college student
left in the wilds by fraternity brothers to ''teach him a lesson.''
    The body was at the bottom of a 500-foot cliff in the Angeles
National Forest about 3 1/2 miles north of where three fraternity
members said they abandoned Fred Phillip Bronner, a 21-year-old
student at nearby Pierce College.
    Bronner, from Los Angeles, was last seen Dec. 22 by three Chi Chi
Chi fraternity members who told police they left him on a desolate
road at 2 a.m. to teach him a ''lesson'' because they considered him
to be ''obnoxious.''
    Their missing person report was filed six days later.
    His father, Leon Bronner, a 52-year-old Polish immigrant, earlier
told newsmen, ''I know it is not possible for this child to
survive. My son, he was not an athlete. He was fat and he was
raised like a momma's boy. He never ALKED. We always drove him.''
    Bronner, 5-foot-10 and 270 pounds, was we
ring only a pair of red
gym trunks and a blue sports coat when he was turned out in the
chill night about 10 miles from Interstate 5 and told to find his
way back, fraternity oembers told police.
    A sherifd's spokesman said he thought no charges would be
brought against the members of the fraternity. ''If Bronner
went voluntarily, they (the fraternity members) 
re only guilty
of stupidity,'' he said.
    Bronner's mother said in aitearful interview Saturday uhe
had not wanted her son to join a fra'45b8i$jj2IPII!!J 1/4!WAW 1/4W 1/4A 1/4 1/4J!
    ''I said I would never permit my son to join a fraternity,''
she said. ''I remember reading about how boys died because
of being forced to swallow liver. But he was a grown man,
so what kould I do?
    ''I hope all the fraternities will be closed down because
of 5his,'' she contcnued. ''How c$n they take my son from
his bed at two in the morning and leave him in the mountains?
They call themselves brothers, but they're not.''
    A family spokesman said the fraternity members, who could
not be reached Sunday, only admitted having taken Bronner ''to
the boondocks'' after his parents became worried and threatened
to call the police.

 Blast 280
    LISBON (AP) - Four relatively weak bombs exploded at various
points in Lisbon late Sunday afternoon, wounding three Portuguese
children, two of them seriously.
    The first went off about 5 p.m. in the hands of two children
who found it in a litter basket at a passageway of the Praca
do Comercio ferryboat station.
    Both children, a 9-year-old girl and her 7-year-old brother,
were severely wounded on the arms and face. They were taken
to a hospital for emergency treatment.
    At roughly the same time, two bombs exploded at the Santa
Apolonia railroad station, one in a wastebasket within the
station and the other just outside the building next to the
station wall. Neither caused any injuries or damage.
    The fourth explosion occurred on the edge of the Olivais
sports field in suburban Moscavide, injuring a child.
    Authorities said the explosive at Praca do Comercio had a
timing device set for about 5 p.m. They surmised the others
also were time bombs.
    A sidewalk vendor who identified herself as Maria Docarmo
R. Falardo said she witnessed the first explosion from her
stand in front of the ferryboat station.
    She said she saw a fairly well-dressed man place a small package
or bundle into the litter bucket several yards away at the
other end of the station entrances, then head into the station
to board a ferry.
    She said the children went to investigate and ''they had
just taken it out and were examining the bundle. There was
a tremendous noise, then shouts and cries and excitement.''
