(AP) A year without pay Is in the future for 50 teachers in the Lansing School District, but the teacher's union is urging the instructors to take a leave of absence instead of being laid off.

The Lansing Education Association, union for the district's 1,100 teachers, Wednesday took an unprecedented stand when it advised teachers to take advantage of the district's leave of absence offer, LEA President Beth Monteith said. Teachers on leave can work as substitutes while taking advantage of contractual fringe benefits, then return to fulltime teaching for the 1981-82 year if possible. PUBLIC WELCOME Those interested craft suppliers, churches, hospital auxiliaries, youth groups, etc, please contact Ruth Hall at 925-0033. Reserve your booth early! Louis Sugo, director of public information for the Wayne County Road Commission, which operates the airport, said Capitol Ih.terr.a-tionai Airways would not press charges against the woman. Neither the woman nor her husband could be reached for comment.

The flight was delayed while police conducted a routine search for bombs or anything else the woman might have left on the plane. An officer said such searches are normal when a stowaway is discovered. No explosives were found and the flight departed before dawn, Sugo said. "The woman was not a stowaway in the classic sense," Sugo said. "Since it was a charter flight and passengers had their boarding passes in advance, it is assumed that she just walked in past the flight attendant with the crowd.

"If there were fewer people, she may have made it. The poor soul must have been awfully lonely." Mrs. Gorsline was carrying $520 in cash and had a small carry-on bag and another small piece of luggage, Sugo said. Al Pittman, president of Capitol, said: "When security and flight personnel came to take the woman off the plane, she offered to pay for the ticket. Obviously, she didn't understand the ramifications of a charter flight." Sugo said the woman was carrying full identification, but said he did not know whether she had a passport.

"Someone said that they thought she had a brown paper-wrapped package," Sugo said. "On that basis, we took all of the precautions and made a full-scale search and found nothing." Mrs. Gorsline apparently speaks little English, a police officer said. The airline's investigation will seek to determine "how the woman circumvented security checkpoints," Pitt-man said. ROMULUS, Mich.

(AP) -Authorities at Detroit Metropolitan Airport are reviewing security operations today "after a woman homesick for fher native Thailand sneaked aboard a charter flight fur Rome. The woman was discovered before the flight left the ground. Hongthong Gorsline. 32, of the Detroit suburb of Taylor, was apprehended and released to her American husband Wednesday, airport authorities said. "We've just got a frightened voung woman," said an air-jport police officer who declined to be identified.

Mrs. Gorsline was discovered when flight atten-tdants took a passenger count and found 253 people aboard the booked-up DC-8, which had 252 seats. The incident caused a three-hour delay in the flight, authorities said. The woman came to the United States with her husband, Joseph, a former serviceman who was stationed in Thailand.
