British Defense Secretary Michael Heseltine said his country is willing to participate in “Star Wars” research only if British and U.S. scientists are considered full partners with equal access to technological developments. Speaking after a meeting in Washington with Defense Secretary Caspar W. Weinberger, Heseltine said “it just isn’t real” to believe the research can be carried out without a two-way flow of technology.
The Pentagon has recommended that the United States reject changes in the 1949 Geneva Conventions dealing with war prisoners because the revisions could be interpreted as applying to terrorists, officials said. The State Department is making a final review of the revisions, approved by the Carter Administration but never submitted to the Senate. The Pentagon believes the revisions blur the distinction between regular soldiers and guerrillas and could abet terrorism, an official said.
The trial of a Portuguese revolutionary leader and 72 other defendants accused of terrorism was suspended today, on the same day it opened. Judge Adelino Salvado suspended the trial until October 7 because a key witness had been shot and was in a hospital and because of delays in selecting a jury. The main defendant is Lieutenant Colonel Otelo Saraiva de Carvalho, organizer of the army-led revolution in 1974 that ended nearly 50 years of dictatorship. The witness, 34-year-old Jose Rosa Barradas, was shot seven times on Friday by suspected members of the Popular Forces of April 25, a terrorist band that the state charges Colonel Saraiva de Carvalho organized and led. The colonel appeared relaxed as defense lawyers charged in a procedural battle with the prosecution that they had not been able to examine much of the evidence. The lawyers also said they had had little access to their clients and to the 500 witnesses to be called by the court. Only 26 of a pool of 50 jurors appeared today. Questioning of the prospective jurors to arrive at a final eight did not begin as scheduled today.
Two bombings wounded 27 people in Copenhagen. The blasts occurred at a synagogue and at the office of Northwest Orient Airlines. In Beirut, an anonymous caller said the bombings were the work of members of Islamic Holy War and had been in retaliation for Israeli raids in southern Lebanon on Sunday in which three people were reported killed. Islamic Holy War is believed to be a name used by groups of Shiite fundamentalists. They have carried out a string of suicide bombings and kidnappings in Lebanon in a bid to clear the country of Western influence.
The Reagan Administration today canceled a travel advisory issued last month warning American travelers of the “potential danger of terrorist acts” at the Athens airport. Charles Redman, a spokesman for the State Department, said the advisory had been canceled after an inspection of the airport last week by a team of security specialists from the Federal Aviation Administration. “The team found that the Greek Government had taken positive actions which are ongoing to improve airport security and that Athens International Airport now meets international airport security standards,” he said.
Steps taken to improve security at the Athens airport may result in some delays but increased security, Greek officials said today. The steps include the construction of a fence around the perimeter of the airport and the guarding of the perimeter by the armed forces, who are equipped with tanks and supported by police cruisers.
The burial of the dead from a collapsed dam began at a ceremony in Tesero, Italy this evening, just a few hundred yards from the valley that was scarred and swept by floodwaters on Friday. In nearby Trent, a state prosecutor said the tragedy was the sort that happened in “some third world country” and should not have occurred in Italy. The prosecutor, Francesco Simeoni, said at a news conference that he had issued more than 50 judicial notices informing public officials and owners of the mining company that owned the dam that they may face prosecution for criminal negligence.
The Austrian Government said today that it had impounded nearly five million bottles of Austrian wine laced with a poisonous chemical used in antifreeze and urged consumers to stop drinking Austrian vintages pending further tests. It was the first time Austrian authorities had issued a public warning since the chemical was found in wine three months ago. “I recommend urgently a certain restraint when drinking wines until final results of nationwide tests have been carried out,” Health Minister Kurt Steyrer said in a statement. The statement said 4.7 million liters of wine had been impounded by the authorities because the wine contained diethylene-glycol. The warning was issued after wine impounded Friday at a supermarket in the southern town of Graz was found to contain a lethal dose of 16 grams to a litre, the highest level of chemical found so far.
An Israeli court sentenced 3 Jews convicted of murder and terrorism to life in prison and 12 other Israeli Jews to terms ranging from three to 10 years. The 15 were convicted July 10 by a three-judge panel of several crimes against Palestinian Arabs in the West Bank. The acts included murder, belonging to a terrorist organization, manslaughter, maiming two Arab mayors and plotting to blow up one of Islam’s holiest shrines, the Dome of the Rock, on Temple Mount in Jerusalem. Under Israeli law, life terms are mandatory in murder convictions. All the nonmurder sentences were partly suspended, reducing to seven years the next longest term. The sentences were widely seen in Jerusalem as relatively lenient, considering the crimes.
India’s major right-wing opposition group urged Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi today to develop nuclear weapons to counter what it described as a threat from Pakistan. The Press Trust of India news agency quoted the Bharatiya Janata Party as saying that Mr. Gandhi’s Government should take “immediate steps to develop our own nuclear bomb in view of reports that the threat of a Pakistani nuclear bomb is real.” Mr. Gandhi said two weeks ago that Pakistan was fairly close to manufacturing a nuclear weapon.
Philippine President Ferdinand E. Marcos said his debt-ridden government has turned the corner on its worst economic crisis since World War II and is winning the war against Communist guerrillas. Opening a session of the National Assembly, Marcos called the war against the Communist New People’s Army “most critical.” He also said inflation is expected to drop to 10% this year from a high of 60% in 1981. Meanwhile, opposition legislators filed an impeachment resolution against Marcos, accusing him of sabotaging the economy by permitting huge overseas investments by his relatives and friends.
New Zealand’s Prime Minister David Lange said today that he knows who bombed the Greenpeace flagship Rainbow Warrior. He did not identify the suspect. The police said there was not enough evidence to prosecute. “From the best information, I have a knowledge of who did it,” Mr. Lange said, “And I know, from the best information I have, why it was done.” Mr. Lange said inquiries into the bombing on July 10, which killed a Greenpeace photographer, Fernando Pereira, showed that it was well financed, meticulously planned and did not involve New Zealanders. Allan Galbraith, who is heading the inquiry, declined to comment on Mr. Lange’s statement. He said the police were “very close” to having enough evidence to issue charges.
The nearly final assignment of seats in Mexico’s national Chamber of Deputies has resulted in a sharp loss of power for the country’s two strongest opposition parties. The conservative National Action Party, the country’s strongest opposition group, will hold 38 seats. That is a net loss of 13 seats in the 400-member chamber, which is the lower house of the Mexican Congress.
As voting was held today in a Haitian referendum on the presidency of Jean-Claude Duvalier, opposition leaders said there was evidence of widespread fraud. The government denied there had been any irregularities. But at voting places visited by foreign reporters, there was not even a pretense of secret balloting, and many people said they had voted several times.
The European Community, underlining its differences with the United States, will negotiate a cooperation agreement with Central American nations, officials said. Included in the pact will be leftist Nicaragua, which is under a U.S. trade embargo, as well as Costa Rica, Honduras, El Salvador, Panama and Guatemala. The agreement will include a major increase in economic aid as well as foreign policy cooperation.
The four Contadora Group nations opened a special meeting on Contadora Island in Panama, where they first met to seek peace in Central America in January, 1983, and urged the Reagan Administration to resume talks with Nicaragua. The United States suspended those talks in January, citing Nicaraguan intransigence. The foreign ministers of Venezuela, Colombia, Mexico and Panama said, “The only thing we’re missing to finish the rough draft of the Act of Peace are the security aspects,” but that is the toughest issue facing them.
Nicaragua may file a second lawsuit before the International Court of Justice at The Hague, in response to the U.S. economic embargo imposed in May, said the American lawyers who represent the Sandinista government. In April, 1984, Nicaragua sued the United States for its financing of anti-government rebels. That case is scheduled to be heard in September, although the Reagan Administration has said it will not accept the court’s jurisdiction in Central America.
Dozens of delegates chanting “Zionist terrorists go home!” marched out of the United Nations women’s conference in Nairobi, Kenya today as the head of the Israeli delegation began to speak. The delegates and their supporters shouted “Palestine! Palestine!” and other slogans in Arabic as they walked through the corridors of the Kenyatta International Conference Center. They returned after the Israeli delegate, Sarah Doron, finished speaking.
Spain’s ambassador to Zimbabwe was beaten to death and his body dumped partly clothed on a farm road outside the capital of Harare, authorities reported. Zimbabwe’s Foreign Affairs Ministry said the circumstances of the killing of Jose Blanco Briones, 50, are unclear, but it pledged to bring the killers to justice. Officials said Blanco attended a dinner for Spanish residents in the northwestern Harare area of Mt. Pleasant on Sunday and that his body was discovered the next morning. Spanish officials were en route to investigate.
South Africa’s police are holding 300 people after carrying out more predawn raids, according to civil rights monitoring groups. They said that priests, lawyers, teachers and political activists were among those who have been detained under the country’s newly imposed state of emergency. They joined 113 people seized Sunday by the police, who now have near-absolute powers in 36 cities and towns covered by the emergency decree issued by President P. W. Botha. The police made no immediate comment on the reports.
Apartheid is largely responsible for the violence in South Africa, the Reagan Administration asserted. The statement was sharper in tone than earlier expressions of concern over increasing unrest in South Africa’s black townships. The White House spokesman, Larry Speakes, offered the Administration’s views at a White House briefing this morning, and they were later echoed by State Department spokesmen. The remarks went beyond an Administration statement Saturday that it was “deeply troubled” by the continuing unrest in South Africa. The violence was cited by President P. W. Botha on Saturday in declaring a state of emergency in several areas of South Africa.
Caspar W. Weinberger is under siege by political antagonists, but few of more than two dozen key people interviewed expect any dramatic changes by the Defense Secretary or the Pentagon. William P. Clark, one of President Reagan’s closest confidants, said Mr. Reagan “relies on Mr. Weinberger as a sort of alter ego, a mirror of his deepest instincts” on national security and foreign policy. His influence on some national security issues, such as arms control, seems at least somewhat diminished, and his credibility is under attack on Capitol Hill. Some conservatives charge that he has let the world’s largest bureaucracy run out of control and has failed to set priorities for spending and strategy. In private, Administration colleagues speculate whether Mr. Weinberger, one of the last survivors of President Reagan’s original Cabinet, will endure at the Pentagon, where only two secretaries have had longer tenure.
The President will aid but not lead efforts of Senate Republicans to reach a budget compromise with House Democrats, according to White House officials. They said Mr. Reagan would help by conferring with Congressional leaders and making telephone calls. But in answer to Mr. Dole’s request for Presidential assistance in breaking an impasse between the House and the Senate, the officials said Mr. Reagan would not take the lead. Mr. Dole, the Senate majority leader, asked the President on Sunday to “step into the breach.” “I don’t think he’s going to ride a white horse to Capitol Hill on this one,” Larry Speakes, the White House spokesman, said this morning. “But he’ll be there and his presence will be forceful.”

The FBI seized a seventh suspect, the third Navy employee, in a purported scheme to smuggle spare parts for the Navy’s F-14 jet fighter to Iran. Federal officials said the widening case represented the first time a hostile country had penetrated the Pentagon’s supply system. The seventh suspect, Antonio G. Rodriguez, arrested in Seattle, is an aviation storekeeper on the helicopter landing ship USS Belleau Wood, based near Seattle. Two other Navy employees, a civilian warehouse worker and an aviation storekeeper on the aircraft carrier USS Kitty Hawk, were arrested last week in the case. In addition, three civilians and an Iranian based in London have been arrested in connection with the case.
Federal prosecutors said today that two Navy men accused of spying for the Soviet Union could get a fair trial despite extensive news coverage. Publicity about the defendants, John A. Walker Jr. and his son, Michael, “has been neither inflammatory nor unduly prejudicial,” prosecutors said in response to a defense motion seeking to dismiss the espionage charges. The arguments were made in court papers filed in Federal District Court in Baltimore, where the two men are being prosecuted.
The Justice Department joined blacks claiming they were being denied the right to vote and obtained a consent decree requiring Bessemer, Alabama, to change its form of government. It was the first time the federal government had used a recently amended section of the Voting Rights Act intended to outlaw electoral rules that have the effect of diminishing black participation. Under terms of past settlements, Bessemer officials must change from a three-member city commission elected at large to a mayor-council form of government with six districts.
Continuing its legal battle with Democratic Governor Mark White, the Justice Department asked a federal court to order Texas to seek “within five days” U.S. approval of a special congressional election set for August 3. Assistant Attorney General William Bradford Reynolds, who heads the civil rights division, said the state’s failure to get federal clearance violated the Voting Rights Act of 1965. A civil suit filed earlier said that the act requires advance approval of the special election to ensure that the schedule does not discriminate against minority voters.
Two space-walking mechanics will perform electrical “bypass surgery” next month to save a costly satellite, shuttle flight commander Joe Engle said at the Johnson Space Center in Houston. Engle, co-pilot Richard Covey and James van Hoften, William Fisher and Mike Lounge are to take off on the shuttle Discovery August 24 from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. After launching three communications satellites, Discovery’s astronauts will rendezvous with the ailing Syncom relay station to repair it, and to begin one of the most daring space walks ever.
A utility’s financial problems may have contributed to reduced safety at a nuclear plant, according to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. It has told a House panel that problems that played a major role in an accident at a nuclear reactor in northwest Ohio last month might have been caused in part because the budget of the operator, Toledo Edison, was strained by cost overruns at reactors under construction.
A new national park could be created within a year if Congress approves, according to the new director of the National Park Service, William Penn Mott Jr. He said a team was working out boundaries for a proposed tall-grass prairie preserve in Osage County in north-central Oklahoma. Conservationists have urged a prairie preserve for 50 years.
U.S. Attorney General Edwin Meese 3d never paid a $10 jaywalking ticket issued five years ago and a warrant for his arrest was re-issued today, officials said. Mr. Meese’s brother, George, who heads the California Department of Motor Vehicles, told Los Angeles officials he would pay the $130.50, according to Ted Goldstein, a spokesman for the City Attorney. A Los Angeles traffic officer issued the ticket for jaywalking across Airport Boulevard on June 11, 1980. A Justice Department spokesman, Terry Eastland, said Mr. Meese was looking into the matter. “If he has a bill to pay, I’m sure he’ll pay it,” he said.
A $500 million postal deficit expected this year makes an increase in postal rates within the next year inevitable, according to postal experts and union officials. When the rates were raised last February, Postal Service officials predicted they would make further rate increases unnecessary for at least three years.
A court ruled invalid a District of Columbia ballot initiative intended to guarantee shelter for the homeless. Superior Court Judge Annice Wagner said the measure, passed by a wide margin last fall, dictated the appropriation of funds, a power reserved to the district city council and Congress. “Judge Wagner’s decision is extremely important because it recognizes that initiatives which impose an open-ended financial obligation on the district are invalid,” D.C. Mayor Marion Barry Jr. said in a statement.
The Alaska Legislature opened a historic hearing into whether Governor Bill Sheffield should be impeached over allegations that he steered a lucrative state lease to a political crony and lied to a grand jury. The governor said he was looking forward to telling his side of the story. Senate President Don Bennett, a Republican, voiced the hope that the hearings, which are being carried on radio and television to much of the state, would be “cathartic” for Alaska. “The major thing that is at stake for the people of our state is to have confidence in government and to have confidence in our system,” he said.
Governor George C. Wallace of Alabama underwent tests today to prepare him for surgery aimed at relieving the pain that has troubled him since a 1972 assassination attempt left him paralyzed from the waist down. The Governor is in Craig Hospital in Englewood, a Denver suburb. The surgery, scheduled for Wednesday, involves the placement of electrodes in the affected area of the spinal cord. Currents sent through the electrodes generate heat lesions that, if successful, destroy the cells and fibers that provide pain sensations to the brain.
Pittsburgh negotiators for Westinghouse Electric Corp. and seven labor unions reached agreement on a three-year contract, averting a walkout by 28,500 hourly and white-collar workers from plants nationwide. The agreement confirms a 3% bonus for blue-collar workers in the first year, and 3% wage increases in each of the last two years, a union official said.
A teacher who lost her job six years ago for spanking a student has been ordered reinstated with back wages. The teacher, Hester Willis, was dismissed after the Grand Rapids Public School District said she acted too harshly in dealing with a third-grader at Palmer Elementary School. The State Education Department’s Tenure Commission upheld the dismissal, but a judge found fault with the ruling and sent it back to the panel. Last month, the commission ordered that she could have her job back.
State troopers were sent to the tiny town of Lee, Maine today, one day after fundamentalist churchgoers were attacked by townspeople wielding pipes and chains in a display of violence that some said might be repeated. “I will never rule it out,” said John W. Crooker, 43 years old, who forced his way into the Lee Baptist Church with at least six other men Sunday evening, setting off a fracas over the custody of his teen-age daughter that left several people injured. Mr. Crooker said he was not armed. Debbie Dunphy, the wife of the pastor, Daniel Dunphy, agreed that another confrontation waa possible “if anything isn’t done about what’s happening.” Her husband spent the day with his lawyer in Bangor and was not available for comment.
A new national Jewish foundation was organized to fill “a gap in Jewish institutionalized giving” and will work with other religious denominations making grants to fight poverty and injustice, officials said in Washington. The Jewish Fund for Justice will for the first time give American Jews a seat and “a presence” on a national Ecumenical Review Board, which includes representatives of major Protestant and Catholic grantmaking agencies, said the fund’s executive director, Lois Roisman.
The second tropical storm of the season, with winds gusting to 50 miles per hour, developed 130 miles off Florida’s west coast today and was pelting the peninsula with heavy rain. Gale warnings were posted over a 200-mile area stretching from the Florida Keys to Venice, 60 miles south of Tampa. The National Hurricane Center said Tropical Storm Bob was 130 miles west-southwest of Fort Myers and remained nearly stationary.
Dan Marino, the Miami Dolphins’ quarterback, began training camp yesterday, but reluctantly. He wants a new contract, something Joe Robbie, the Dolphins’ owner, had promised him in January, during the week before Super Bowl XIX. But so far, Robbie has not engaged Marino’s attorney, Marvin Demoff, in any substantive negotiations.
Major League Baseball:
The Red Sox topped the A’s, 6–4. Wade Boggs extended the longest hitting streak in the major leagues this season to 25 games with two doubles and a single. Boggs, who has reached base in 46 consecutive games, drove in two runs and scored a pair in helping Tim Lollar win his Boston debut. Lollar (4-5), acquired from the White Sox on July 11, pitched six innings and gave up eight hits.
Billy Martin won’t divulge his plans, but it appears likely the Yankee manager is about to alter his pitching rotation within the next several days. Dennis Rasmussen, whose season has been a constant struggle, flunked an important test tonight when he failed to hold a 3–0 lead in the fifth inning. The Yankees lost the game to the Kansas City Royals, 5–4, and Rasmussen may have lost his chance to remain in the big leagues. Rasmussen, who has won just one time in his last 11 starts, seemed in control after giving up only one hit through the first four innings. But the Royals sent 10 batters to the plate and scored five runs in the fifth, four of them coming when Willie Wilson and Hal McRae each hit two-run singles.
Minnesota does all its scoring in he 2nd as the beat the Orioles, 5–4. Kent Hrbek hits his second grand slam in 5 days for the Twins. Hrbek’s slam erased a 2–0 deficit. Manager Earl Weaver, was ejected in the third inning for arguing after Minnesota’s Randy Bush made a running catch of Fred Lynn’s line drive. Weaver spent several minutes arguing with umpires, then, after he was ejected, marched out toward Bush in left field. Weaver was led back to the dugout by two umpires and then bowed to the crowd. Minnesota Manager Ray Miller announced his club would play the game under protest because his starter, Mike Smithson (9–7), was not allowed to warm up during the delay.
Carlton Fisk hit his 26th home run, matching his career high, and Gene Nelson (6–4) pitched seven shutout innings to lift the White Sox to a 9–4 win over the visiting Tigers. Fisk, who leads the majors in homers, led off the second inning with an upper-deck clout to give Chicago a 1–0 lead against Randy O’Neal (5–3). Fisk has hit eight homers since July 6, and eight of his last 13 hits have been home runs. Chicago has won six of its last seven; Detroit has lost seven of nine.
Ben Oglivie homered and knocked in five runs as Milwaukee clobbered California, 16–3. The Brewers sent 13 men to the plate in the eighth when they exploded for eight runs on only four hits to take a 16–3 lead. California’s Rod Carew had two hits to give him 2,987, tying him with Edgar Rice for 16th place on the career list.
The Texas Rangers edged the Indians, 2–1. Oddibe McDowell homered leading off the eighth inning to give Texas the victory over Cleveland. McDowell’s homer, his sixth, came on an 0–1 curve from Cleveland starter Vern Ruhle, 2–6. The ball just cleared the right–field wall, making a winner of reliever Greg Harris, 3–3. “I wasn’t looking for a curveball,” McDowell said, “but he made a mistake and got it up and I got lucky.” McDowell, who was hitting only .207 coming into the game, is now hitting .353 in his last four games to raise his season average to .217. “I’m not used to not hitting for an average, but I’m settling down and I’m seeing the ball better,” McDowell said.
The Blue Jays beat the Mariners, 3–1. The Blue Jays found a fifth starter in Tom Filer and rediscovered relief ace Bill Caudill. Filer allowed one hit over seven innings and Caudill, looking like the relief ace of old, recorded the final two outs as Toronto defeated Seattle. The win was Filer’s first as a Blue Jay and also his first major league victory since July 3, 1982, when he was with the Chicago Cubs.
Run-scoring singles by pinch-hitters Terry Pendleton and Steve Braun with two out in the eighth inning gave the St. Louis Cardinals a 4–3 victory today over the Giants. Joaquin Andujar, with the most victories in the major leagues, brought his record to 16–4. The first-place Cardinals increased their lead over the Mets to a game and a half in the National League East. The Giants had taken a 3–2 lead in the sixth inning on a home run by Jeff Leonard.
John Russell belts a 1st-inning grand slam off Joe Niekro, but it takes a two-out 9th inning walkoff homer by Mike Schmidt to give the Phils a 7–6 victory over Houston. Schmidt gets a second chance at bat when Phil Garner drops his foul fly for an error. Reliever Jeff Heathcock (0–1) had struck out the first two Phillies in the ninth before Schmidt’s homer.
Sid Fernandez pitched no-hit ball against the Cincinnati Reds for six innings last night in Shea Stadium, and even struck out 13 batters before he was finished. But, as Casey Stengel used to say, “You got to get 27 outs to win.” And he didn’t. With nine outs to go, Dave Concepcion led off the seventh inning by hitting a change-up into the left-field bullpen, and Fernandez kissed his no-hitter goodbye. Before he got three outs, the Reds got three runs, and they went on to beat the Mets, 5–1, behind some even fancier pitching of their own. They got it from Mario Soto, their best but most puzzling pitcher, who had lost eight straight games in nine starts since June 4. But last night, Soto, now 9–11, withstood the no-hit syndrome, shut out the Mets until the bottom of the ninth, gave them only six hits and no walks and won for the first time in 48 days.
The Braves whipped the Expos, 7–1. Rick Mahler (14–8) pitched a six-hitter, and Terry Harper had a two-run homer for Atlanta to cap a four-run third inning for the Braves. Mahler struck out five batters and walked two. He lost a bid for his first shutout of the season when Vance Law hit a run-scoring double in the eighth inning.
The Cubs won a 5–3 victory over the Padres. Keith Moreland’s single up the middle in the eighth inning scored Davey Lopes from third base to break a 3–3 tie. The Cubs added a run in the ninth. Ron Cey doubled and Billy Hatcher ran for him. Bob Dernier then hit a single to make it 5–3. Ron Meredith (1–0) got his first major league win.
The Pirates downed the Dodgers, 6–3. Sam Khalifa’s three-run homer allowed Larry McWilliams to pick up his fifth victory against seven losses. The loss prevented the Dodgers from increasing their lead in the National League West. Los Angeles leads San Diego by one-half-game. With the Pirates ahead 2–1 in the fourth, Jason Thompson led off with a walk against loser Rick Honeycutt (6–9). One out later, Sixto Lezcano singled before Khalifa belted a 3–2 pitch into the left-field bleachers. The Dodgers closed to 5–3 in the sixth on Steve Sax’s two-run double but Tony Pena put Pittsburgh ahead 6–3 in the eighth with his seventh home run of the season.
