Paris police distributed a photograph of an “armed, dangerous and determined” man they allege is the terrorist leader who shot and killed two French secret agents and a Lebanese terrorist courier over the weekend. Known only as “Carlos,” police said they did not know the man’s real name or nationality, but said he was known to speak both Spanish and Arabic. Police still refuse to identify the Lebanese who was shot in the gun battle.
The sister of Spain’s General Francisco Franco was quoted as saying her brother, 82, will not retire until solutions are found to the nation’s major problems such as the future of the Spanish Sahara. A newspaper interview quoted her as saying, “I am convinced that my brother wishes to leave the prince (Juan Carlos) a Spain completely at peace, inside and outside.”
A delegation of 14 United States Senators arrived today to assess the future of Soviet‐American relations and spent its first evening here meeting with Soviet Jews seeking to emigrate. The Senators were told by 16 leading Jewish dissidents that Soviet emigration policies had become far harsher than in the past, and that merely applying for permission to emigrate could resule in grave difficulties for applicants. The leaders of the Senatorial delegation are Hubert H. Humphrey, Democrat of Minnesota, and the Senate minority leader, Hugh Scott, a Pennsylvania Republican. This evening’s meeting with Jewish leaders was arranged mainly by Senator Jacob K. Javits, Republican of New York, and Senator Abraham A. Ribicoff, Democrat of Connecticut.
An Ulster Central Intelligence Agency has been set up to channel data on the activities of Irish Republican guerrillas to paramilitary Protestant groups. A UCIA spokesman claimed that members of the Royal Ulster Constabulary and the Ulster Defense Regiment had joined the new agency because “they were fed up with seeing their colleagues shot over the last six years.”
Pope Paul VI marked the 12th anniversary of his reign by conducting the largest ordination ceremony in history. Speaking in St. Peter’s Square before nearly 100,000 Holy Year pilgrims and families of the 354 new priests from 50 nations and every continent, he told them to “go into all the world and preach the Gospel to every nation.”
Premier-designate Rashid Karami of Lebanon said that he expected that a new cabinet would be announced tomorrow in a move to end the country’s worst violence in nearly 20 years. Police sources said that at least 34 people had been killed and 200 wounded Saturday night and Sunday and that the toll in the latest round of fighting between rival rightist and leftist factions, which began early last week, was about 90 dead and 350 wounded. The number of dead since the conflict began two and a half months ago is estimated at 800.
Members of the Arab lobby are visiting scores of American cities and towns to present the Arab view of Middle Eastern affairs. At the White House, at garden clubs and before Rotarians and Daughters of the American Revolution, even at synagogues and before Jewish educational and cultural groups, the Arabs are seeking out anyone who will listen to their side of the dispute. While they are not yet as effective as the pro-Israel lobby, the usual attitude of indifference toward the Arab cause in Congress and among the public is changing.
Israel has decided to seek “preparatory clarifications” from the United States before making her next move in the deadlocked negotiations with Egypt on a new disengagement agreement in Sinai. This was announced in Jerusalem after a four-hour cabinet meeting held in an atmosphere of near-crisis in Israeli-American relations.
Lebanese Premier‐designate Rashid Karami said today that he expected that a new Cabinet would be announced tomorrow in a move to end Lebanon’s worst violence in nearly 20 years. Police sources said that at least 34 people had been killed and 200 wounded last night and today. They said the toll for the latest round of fighting between rival rightist and leftist factions, which began early last week, was about 90 dead and 350 wounded. About 800 are reported to have been killed in the two and a half months since a violent conflict began between rightwing Christian Phalangist militiamen and Palestinian guerrillas. More recently, the fighting has been between Phalangists and the left‐wing Lebanese Muslim party.
Former President Abdul Hamid Khan of Kashmir was sworn in as first prime minister of Pakistan-held Kashmir, or Azad Kashmir as it is now officially called. He is the leader of the People’s Party which won a landslide victory in elections last May 8. His party is the Kashmir arm of the ruling Pakistan People’s Party of Prime Minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto.
While the government of Prime Minister Indira Gandhi took particular pains to assert its authority today, which was to have been the start of a passive resistance campaign against her rule, anti-government rioting broke out in the area of India’s capital city. Squads of policemen wielding lead-tipped riot sticks, rained blows on youths who poured through the streets shouting “Indira Gandhi, get off your throne!” At least 30 demonstrators were arrested as the Government of Prime Minister Gandhi took stern security measures to prevent the protest from spreading. The Government also acted to prevent hoarding and price-gouging by merchants trying to capitalize on the tension around the country. Early this morning, India’s President, Fakhruddin All Ahmed, issued an ordinance, stipulating that it is not necessary to communicate to a detained person the reasons why he or she is detained.
As part of the current drive against corruption, Korean Government investigators have turned up several cases of alleged flight of capital in violation of the foreign exchange laws and President Park Chung Hee’s most recent emergency decree. Officials said that the amounts involved, while sizable for individuals, were not economically important. But the incidents posed a social and political threat as South Korean businessmen spent scarce foreign exchange for high living abroad, getting around import controls or evading taxes, the officials said.
A wealthy Quebec woman was freed in a police raid on a farmhouse near Sherbrooke, where two men had been holding her for $1 million ransom. Lina Blanchet, 63, was reported “weakened” after her five-day ordeal but otherwise unharmed. The men surrendered. Earlier, Mrs. Blanchet’s son Gaston failed in an attempt to hand over an undisclosed sum of money at a hotel in St. Liboire, 40 miles from Sherbrooke. But an unmarked police car followed a suspicious-looking car to the area of the farmhouse and the raid was ordered.
Residents of Regina, Saskatchewan, were warned to boil drinking water until officials.isolate the source of sewage contamination of the water supply following a devastating “tropical monsoon” that barreled north from Montana, piled up greenish clouds nine miles high over the city of 90,000 and brought 6 inches of rain in less than four hours. Dr. John Chiou, the city health officer, said the contamination apparently came from breaks in water and sewer line mains and flooded reserve wells.
The ship Greenpeace V, operated by the environmentalist Canadian group Greenpeace Foundation, made the first of many confrontations with whalers to save the world’s whales from being hunted to extinction. Paul Watson and several other members of the crew conducted the first “hunt sabotage” against the Soviet whaling ship Dalniy Vostok, steering rafts between the ships and the whales in an effort to prevent the firing of harpoons. In that first meeting, the Soviets fired their harpoons anyway, without injury to the Greenpeace members.
Six of eight Latin‐American countries that signed a declaration of intent in December to limit their acquisition of offensive weapons have made progress in political and military talks since then, according to foreign diplomats and American officials. But the arms race continues in Latin America, the diplomats and officials noted, making some of them skeptical about the future of the so‐called Ayacucho Pact.
The Brazilian Senate by a 29 to 21 vote killed a motion of impeachment against Sen. Wilson Campos, a member of the government party who was accused of soliciting a bribe from an industrialist in Pernambuco state. Political observers said the government might use its strong executive powers to remove Campos anyway. President Ernesto Geisel is reported to favor impeachment to show that legislative corruption will not be tolerated by his regime.
The Peronist movement emerged today more divided than ever before in its 30 years’ existence, with a minority backing President Isabel Martinez de Perón and a growing majority falling behind the powerful labor movement. In a nationwide speech last night, Mrs. Perón denounced labor leaders as irresponsible for pressing for inflationary wage demands. She ordered a rollback of salary agreements recently obtained by the major unions. Labor leaders decided to postpone their response until a general session of ranking trade union members could be held tomorrow. The Minister of Labor, Ricardo Otero, resigned shortly after Mrs. Perón’s speech.
Representatives of Angola’s three competing guerrilla forces met here this weekend to discuss the formation of a single Angolan army made up of soldiers from all of them. A sense of emergency surrounded the closed talks, because the general economy of Angola and the civil administration in several parts of the country have been severely disrupted by clashes between guerrilla groups in recent weeks. More than 1,000 deaths have been reported. Noting that the talks started Friday and would continue as long as necessary, the transitional government’s Minister of Information, Rui Monteiro, said: “The government does not work efficiently without discipline. A single army is very necessary.”
The Marine Corps, whose military mission has been directed to the Pacific Ocean since World War II, is quietly being reoriented to the Atlantic Ocean and a possible role in Western Europe. This emerging Defense Department concept appears to be accepted by the new Marine command under General Louis Wilson, but not since the military unification battles of 25 years ago has there been such a significant shift.
Justice William O. Douglas’ Supreme Court colleagues have moved to discount any decisive vote by the ailing jurist whenever he is not present to cast it. Time magazine says in its latest issue. “Court sources deny that any formal agreement was ratified. But a majority apparently decided that both justice and the appearance of justice would be better served if Douglas were physically present for cases in which he was the critical vote,” it said. Douglas, who has refused to resign, has been convalescing from a stroke he suffered last New Year’s Eve. The court has announced no 5–4 decisions since that date.
In a sweeping criticism of the Civil Aeronautics Board, a Senate study has concluded that the agency for the last five years has regularly violated its own rules — and perhaps in some instances federal law — while acting to protect the interests of the airlines at the expense of the traveler.
Two black leaders said the extra-high unemployment rate among blacks could soon revive serious racial conflict in the United States. Roy Wilkins, executive director of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and Margaret Bush Wilson, NAACP national chairman, said President Ford had done nothing to alleviate unemployment or the social causes of crime in black communities. They made their comments in a nationally televised interview on the eve of the NAACP’s national convention in Washington, which Mr. Ford is expected to address. As for the President’s speech, “We expect a lot of rhetoric and we don’t expect any specifics,” Wilkins said.
Negotiations that an Indian leader thought might lead to the surrender of men wanted in the killing in Pine Ridge, South Dakota Thursday of two Federal Bureau of Investigation agents never got started because of misunderstandings and mistrust, interviews with members of both sides indicated today. Meanwhile, residents of the district in which the killings occurred began signing a petition calling for an end to the heavy FBI presence. They protested that agents were searching their homes illegally. However, an FBI spokesman said that the agency would not be influenced by the feelings of the residents. “We intend to stay here as long as we need to,” he said.
Mary Louise Smith, Republican national chairman, said the best way to increase the number of women candidates was for women to become active at all levels of political parties. Mrs. Smith spoke to 2,000 delegates in Boston on the final day of the second convention of the National Women’s Political Caucus, formed four years ago to help women get political power. “We need more women here-women who distinguish themselves as campaign managers, finance directors, in dozens of jobs like these. It is not enough to have women at the bottom and the top. We need women in key positions all along the line.”
The multibillion dollar military airplane business is shrinking, partly because fighter planes have become so expensive that the Air Force and Navy have to restrict the number they order. A result is fiercer competition than ever before among the airplane manufacturers. The LTV Aerospace Corporation has taken the unusual step of filing a formal complaint with the General Accounting Office, the investigative arm of Congress, against the Navy, the company’s principal customer, for selecting the fighter offered by two other companies.
A panel headed by David Rockefeller Jr. has undertaken an intensive project aimed at strengthening the role of the arts in education. It is expected to issue a report in the fall of 1976 that it hopes will influence curricula at all educational levels and direct public attention to “the significant role that the arts must play in education and beyond.” The American Council for the Arts in Education will administer the project.
In the wake of 43 known deaths from intrauterine contraceptive devices, the Food and Drug Administration is proposing the first uniform labeling for IUDs used by about 4 million American women. Such labeling now is required on only two other prescription products-oral contraceptives and aerosolized asthma drugs. The IUD labels would advise physicians to explain insertion and removal techniques and describe adverse reactions or problems to look for. A separate brochure would be included for women. A statistical analysis has found that IUDs are somewhat less effective than the pill but safer in terms of fewer deaths. Both methods were less hazardous, however, than unprotected intercourse and the maternal mortality rate.
Mostly they sit and talk quietly among themselves or lie on the campers’ cots in the crowded tents and Quonset huts, staring into nowhere, dreaming private dreams of the homes they left behind. They are among the 325 or so South Vietnamese refugees in this country who have decided since their escape at the end of April that more than aything else they want to go home. About 1,700 others of the more than 130.000 who fled as Saigon was taken over by the Communists have expressed a desire to return, but they are still being housed at Pacific bases, such as those on Guam and Wake.
Ninety cents a gallon for gas by Thanksgiving? That’s what motorists will be paying if Congress permits President Ford to deregulate prices of oil and natural gas, according to studies made by the staff of Senator Adlai E. Stevenson III (D-Illinois). The projection also assumes that oil-exporting nations will proceed on October 1 with their threatened $3-per-barrel price increase.
Amy, the 1975 Atlantic hurricane season’s first tropical storm, took shape as it drifted slowly east in the open seas after skirting the North Carolina coast, the National Hurricane Center said in Miami. “It has winds up to 55 mph but it’s a good distance from land,” a forecaster said. Its rough seas and waves up to 15 feet high were causing some erosion near Cape Hatteras on the North Carolina coast. The broad center of the storm was 200 miles southeast of Cape Hatteras and was moving slowly to the east.
On the night of June 29-30, 20-year-old Donald Watt Cressey of Bellevue, Washington, the senior cook at Old Faithful Lodge in Yellowstone National Park, attended a “hot potting” (hot-spring swimming) party on Nez Perce Creek along with 10 to 20 other people. Cressey died after somehow entering a 179 °F (82 °C)-hot spring fully clothed. Because the rest of the group drove home without noticing Cressey’s absence, park rangers would suspect foul play, and the FBI would investigate.
There is 8.10″ (20.57 cm) of rainfall today in Litchville, North Dakota (state 24-hour record).
Canadian Open Golf (Peter Jackson Classic), St. George’s CC: JoAnne Carner wins in a playoff with Carol Mann.
Major League Baseball:
Working with only two days of rest, Mike Cuellar spaced five hits and pitched the Orioles to a 2–1 victory over the Tigers. Ray Bare, who started for the Tigers, was even more frugal, allowing only four hits, but two walks in the eighth inning helped beat him. After Brooks Robinson batted in a run for the Orioles in the fifth inning, the Tigers tied the score in the sixth when Gary Sutherland doubled and Willie Horton singled. With two out in the eighth, Bare walked both Tim Nordbook and Al Bumbry, paving the way for the Orioles’ winning run on a single by Lee May.
Making his first start of the season, Roger Moret came out ahead in a duel with Catfish Hunter when the Red Sox scored on doubles by Bernie Carbo and Rick Burleson in the eighth inning to defeat the Yankees, 3–2. The Yankees counted both their runs in the fifth on a homer by Chris Chambliss and doubles by Sandy Alomar and Bobby Bonds. The Red Sox came back with one in their half of the fifth on a single by Cecil Cooper and double by Carlton Fisk before tying the game in the seventh on a pass to Fred Lynn, single by Cooper and sacrifice fly by Rico Petrocelli.
After scoring three times through errors, the Brewers pushed over an earned run in the ninth inning and defeated the Indians, 4–3, for their 14th victory in the last 20 games. Don Hood, who started for the Indians, allowed only four hits in the first eight innings and retired the last 14 batters in a row before being lifted after George Scott led off with a double for the Brewers in the ninth. Following the appearance of Tom Buskey in relief, Sixto Lezcano sacrificed Scott to third. Buskey then passed Darrell Porter intentionally, bringing up Bobby Mitchell, who hit a long fly to left field, enabling Scott to score after the catch.
The relief work of Dave Hamilton, who pitched 2 ⅓ hitless innings, enabled the White Sox to extend their winning streak to eight games with a 3–1 victory over the Royals. A double by Bucky Dent and homer by Bill Melton supplied two runs for the White Sox in the third and their other tally followed in the fourth on a single by Jorge Orta, a stolen base, wild throw and squeeze bunt by Brian Downing. With two out in the seventh, the Royals staged a threat when Al Cowens singled and Buck Martinez walked to force the exit of Jim Kaat. Rich Gossage, in relief, gave up a run-scoring single by Harmon Killebrew and passed Jim Wohlford to load the bases before Hamilton came in to retire Tony Solaita on a fly ball.
In a game that featured one big inning by each club, the Rangers defeated the Twins, 9–7, to bring Mike Bacsik credit for his first major league victory. The Rangers went on their scoring spree in the fourth, piling up eight runs. Singles by Mike Hargrove, Jim Spencer and Lenny Randle, an error and singles by Roy Smalley, Jim Sundberg and Cesar Tovar accounted for the first five runs before Mike Cubbage climaxed the outburst by hitting a homer with two men on base. The Twins flexed their muscles in the sixth, scoring seven times. After the first three runs had crossed the plate, the Twins called on Tony Oliva as a pinch-hitter with the bases loaded. The Rangers brought in southpaw Jim Umbarger to face the lefthanded batter. Oliva promptly kicked the percentage theory in the teeth by smashing a grand-slam homer. The Twins’ rally died at that point, while the Rangers added an insurance run in their half on singles by Tovar and Hargrove and a grounder by Spencer.
While Ken Holtzman and Rollie Fingers collaborated on a two-hitter, the Athletics made merry with the offerings of Nolan Ryan, knocking him out in the seventh inning, to defeat the Angels, 7–1. The Angels got both their hits and their run off Holtzman on doubles by Tommy Harper and Leroy Stanton in the first inning. Fingers relieved with two out in the seventh after Holtzman walked two batters. Ryan, making his first appearance since pulling a groin muscle June 18, gave up nine hits, walked seven and yielded four runs. Don Kirkwood was tagged for the A’s last three tallies. Claudell Washington accounted for four RBIs with a sacrifice fly, single and grounder.
With George Foster, Joe Morgan and Merv Rettenmund hitting homers, the Reds extended their winning streak to six games with a 4–1 victory in the opener of a doubleheader before being stopped by the Padres in the nightcap, 4–3. The Reds added to their major league fielding record in the twin bill, playing their 13th and 14th consecutive games without committing an error. Jack Billingham, with last-out help from Will McEnaney, notched his sixth straight victory in the lidlifter. Singles by Enzo Hernandez and Bobby Tolan, together with a grounder by Tito Fuentes, produced the Padres’ run in the third inning before the Reds swung into action with their homers. In the nightcap, Brent Strom posted his third successive complete-game victory for the Padres. Gene Locklear batted in two runs with a double in the third to start the Padres’ scoring. Doubles by Mike Ivie and Randy Hundley added a tally in the sixth and what proved to be the winning run followed in the seventh on a pass to Fuentes and singles by Locklear and Ivie. Foster hit his second homer of the day for the Reds, connecting with a man on base in the eighth inning.
At Shea, the Phillies sweep a pair from the Mets, winning 9–6 and 4–3 in 12 innings. Jerry Koosman gives up 7 runs in 1 ⅔ innings in the opener to take the loss. Larry Christenson is a bit better, allowing 6 runs in 5 innings for the win. In game 2 the Phils tie the score at 3 all in the 9th. After starter Tom Seaver puts two men on base, pinch hitter Johnny Oakes lines a single that breaks the jaw of reliever Bob Apodaca to load the bases. Apodaca will miss a month. Pinch hitter Ollie Brown, who had 3 hits in game 1, then walks to drive in the tying run. Greg Luzinski’s 2-out home run in the 12th makes a winner out of Tug McGraw.
After a two-run homer by Al Oliver with two out in the ninth inning lifted the Pirates to a 4–3 victory, Jerry Reuss shut out the Cubs, 7–0, to complete the sweep of a doubleheader. Richie Hebner also had a homer for the Pirates in the lidlifter, but Don Kessinger drove in two runs with a double in the seventh inning to put the Cubs ahead, 3–2. In the Pirates’ ninth, Bill Robinson delivered a pinch-single and took second on a sacrifice by Rennie Stennett. After Ed Kirkpatrick was retired, Oliver came up and hit his game-winning homer off Rick Reuschel. Reuss’ shutout was the fourth of the season for the lefthander. Willie Stargell backed Reuss with a single, double and homer.
The Braves bunched four hits for all their runs in the fourth inning and defeated the Astros, 3–1. Marty Perez and Darrell Evans hit singles and both scored on a double by Larvell Blanks, who also crossed the plate when Rowland Office singled. The Astros loaded the bases against Carl Morton in the sixth, but failed to score when Milt May grounded into a double play. Morton then gave up a run on a walk and singles by Wilbur Howard and Greg Gross in the eighth before yielding the mound to Max Leon, who got out of the inning without further scoring.
Two Expos’ batters with low averages, Barry Foote (.083) and Nate Colbert (.186), smashed consecutive homers in the eighth inning during a five-run outburst that beat the Cardinals, 7–3. Bob Bailey walked and Larry Lintz came in to run before Foote scored his round-tripper. Colbert followed with his first homer since being obtained by the Expos from the Tigers on June 15. Three singles, an error and sacrifice fly added two more runs before the inning ended. Steve Renko, who overcame a shaky start, pitched his first complete game of the season for the Expos.
Tom Bradley, who returned recently from a two-month stay in the minors, gained his first victory of the season when the Giants defeated the Dodgers, 5–2, to complete a sweep of the four-game series. Bradley blanked the Dodgers on three hits until the eighth inning when Leron Lee singled and Davey Lopes homered. Bill Buckner followed with a single before Randy Moffitt took over to save Bradley’s decision. Derrel Thomas drove in two runs with a single and homer to lead the Giants’ 10-hit attack on Don Sutton, who was chased in the seventh and wound up with his third straight defeat.
