Stylianos Pattakos, Nikolaos Makarezos, and former president George Papadopoulos, the three Greek Army colonels who had led the 1967 military coup in Greece, were sentenced to death after being convicted of treason and insurrection, while eight other defendants (including former president Demetrios Ioannidis) received life sentences, and seven others got terms ranging from 4 to 20 years. On August 25, the Greek cabinet voted to commute the sentences to life imprisonment.

The Greek government rejected opposition demands for an emergency session of parliament to deal with allegations that the administration had hastened a decision to commute the death sentences imposed on the three leaders of the 1967 army coup: former President George Papadopoulos and his aides, Stylianos Pattakos and Nicholas Makarezos.

A furious mob assaulted the headquarters of the pro-Communist Popular Democratic Movement in Leiria, Portugal shortly before midnight last night, sacked it and burned all the furnishings and documents in a huge bonefire in front of the Roman Catholic cathedral. Troops and firemen arrived too late to halt the attack. The soldiers dispersed the crowd and made a number of arrests. There were shots in the air and at least one person was wounded by gunfire. Several soldiers used their rifles to beat demonstrators and journalists.

The attack on the Democratic Movement building came after a charge on the Communist party headquarters in Leiria earlier in the evening was repulsed by troops. The Democratic Movement expected trouble when Catholics announced plans to hold a demonstration here yesterday calling for religious freedom. In a statement, the leftist party warned that it would hold the Bishop of Leiria, the provincial Governor and the Armed Forces Movement responsible for any violence. The attack was led by strongly anti‐Communist peasants from the nearby town of Marinha Grande. They smashed their way into the three‐story building and destroyed everything inside, ripping out doors and windows. They threw chairs, tables and archives out into the street where the crowd set fire to them.

Pope Paul VI deplored the “shameful phenomenon” of kidnapings, social unrest, immorality and political turmoil in the world. Addressing more than 12,000 Holy Year pilgrims at his summer residence at Castel Gandolfo, the Pope called on people of conscience to change the course of society “from this degradation of moral sense.”

Left-wing urban guerrillas have claimed responsibility for the shooting in Valencia, Spain, of a 20-year-old American sailor, the daily Las Provincias reported. The sailor, Donald Croswaye, was shot from a passing car and wounded in the leg as he was leaving a dockside nightclub two days ago. He was from a U.S. Navy ship visiting Valencia.

Bombs blasted a bank and a hardware shop in the Corsican capital of Bastia, but the island was otherwise calm after bloody clashes last week. A woman was slightly wounded in the shop, owned by a French settler from Algeria. Corsican separatists have launched a campaign against the big community of former Algerian settlers who came to Corsica after Algeria’s independence in 1962.

Left-wing forces have mounted an energetic campaign against four potentially important military bases maintained on the Greek island of Crete by the United States and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. The campaign has taken full advantage of the strident anti-American feeling that has flourished in Greece since the Cyprus crisis a year ago, and it is hard to find anyone in Crete who will publicly defend the bases. A senior cabinet minister described the campaign as very dangerous; the government recently issued a detailed statement denying the leftists’ most damaging charges. Many Cretans seem temporarily satisfied, but they are adamantly independent people who voted heavily against Premier Konstantine Karamanlis, so the situation remains volatile. Given more fuel, such as a renewal of American military aid to Turkey, the campaign could flare up, according to local analysts.

Egypt and Israel were reported to have resolved virtually every major substantive issue that had been in the way of a new Sinai agreement. Secretary of State Kissinger said he hoped to conclude the agreement this week. One of the issues that was said to have been resolved was the control of an early-warning system at strategic mountain passes that Israel will give up. American technicians will be assigned to observation points at the Gidi and Mitla passes. The Israelis will maintain the post at Umm Khisheib, with an American contingent present.

Most Israelis, including officials on the negotiating team, are more worried than angry about a Sinai agreement that they feel is inevitable. They know that Israel will surrender territory that would cost Israeli lives to regain and that would have to be regained to avert a catastrophe for Israel if war again broke out. They know the price of the oil they must acquire to replace the production of the Abu Rudeis fields that will revert to Egypt. Another of the many concerns is that with the loss of Abu Rudeis, Israel will lose a further measure of freedom of action because she will depend on the United States to assure her oil supplies.

President Anwar Sadat and many other Egyptians appear to view a Sinai agreement as a small but important move in a gamble that will revive the long-stagnant Egyptian economy. But these expectations are not shared by skeptics who see a small advance in Sinai as an insignificant beginning to a long and uncertain process. Mr. Sadat apparently has few limits to his vision of cooperation with the United States, which marks a break in Egypt’s dependence on the Soviet Union. In Mr. Sadat’s gamble, the United States and his “good friend” Secretary of State Kissinger are assigned central roles, according to conversations with many Egyptians and foreigners. The reasoning goes like this: First, through the good offices of the Secretary of State, the Americans will help move Israeli troops back in Sinai, out of artillery range of the Suez Canal, and regain the important fields at Abu Rudeis for the oilpoor Egyptians. Then, with the canal area “safe” for outside investments, it is hoped, the United States will lead capital and technology into Egypt, eventually lifting the living standards of her 35 million people.

Prime Minister Indira Gandhi of India said in an interview broadcast today that the political prisoners arrested in her country in the last two months had not been granted trial because the courts were slow and individual guilt was difficult to prove. Mrs. Gandhi made the comments during a televised interview in which she defended her Government’s declaration of a national state of emergency on June 26. The interview on NBC’s Meet the Press program was taped by satellite last Wednesday, with Mrs. Gandhi in New Delhi and her questioners in Washington. The Prime Minister’s discussion of the possibility of trial for the thousands of political prisoners now believed held in jails came in response to a question about why the allegations against the prisoners had not been aired in court. “Court cases go on for years and years and it is very difficult to prove anything,” Mrs. Gandhi replied. If a person has not personally indulged in arson or whatever, you couldn’t convict him.”

Bangladesh moved toward another phase of violence and chaos over the weekend when staunch supporters of the country’s assassinated leader, Sheik Mujibur Rahman, began to regroup into an underground movement. The members were understood to have vowed to slay every political figure and army officer remotely responsible for the murder last week of the founder father of the nation and more than 20 members of his family and political associates. Other evidence indicated that a conflict was building within the army between senior commanders and the group of young majors who planned the coup without the knowledge of their superior officers. The young majors, who still command armored and other field units, are ensconced with about 200 men and a number of tanks within the walls of the presidential palace. Senior commanders are reported to be trying to persuade them to withdraw from the political arena and return to their normal duties.

King Birendra of the Himalayan kingdom of Nepal stripped Princess Ketaki Rajya Laxmi Rana of her royal title and privileges in one of the rare divorce cases in this Hindu area. A press communique from the royal palace said the king’s ruling came after a three-member commission approved the divorce suit filed by the princess’ husband, Kamud Shumsher Rana. The reason for the divorce suit was not given.

Cambodian Vice Premier Khieu Samphan said government ministers have joined in planting crops and that people throughout Cambodia have enough food for a normal life, a Hanoi broadcast reported. After Cambodia’s five-year war ended in April, millions of Cambodians were threatened with hunger, Khieu Samphan said in an interview with the official Cambodian news agency.

Wang Ping-nan, a former vice foreign minister purged during China’s Cultural Revolution, has been politically “rehabilitated” and named president of the People’s Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries, according to a broadcast from Peking. Wang, 69, became vice foreign minister in April, 1964, after serving as ambassador to Poland. In 1967 he was purged as a traitor to the revolution.

Japan’s second major typhoon in a week left 26 persons dead, three missing and 52 injured, police reported. Typhoon Rita battered western Japan with winds of up to 116 mph, blew out to sea and then-as a tropical storm-lashed into northern Japan. Like Typhoon Phyllis, which killed more than 68 persons a week ago. Rita hit hardest at Shikoku, smallest of Japan’s four main islands. Rail and road traffic were paralyzed in many areas of the nation.

Argentine President Isable Martinez de Perón was re-elected head of the Perónist movement and her candidates won the other leadership posts late last night at a tumultuous party congress that saw half the delegates walk out. The dramatic display or Perónist disunity came at a time when the government is under withering criticism from the opposition parties and restlessness in the armed forces is growing. Mrs. Perón, who attended the party congress briefly, conceded in a speech that “we have been governing badly for the last months.” Since late June, her Government has been engulfed by a political and economic crisis that has left Argentina virtually rudderless. Inflation, shortages and recession have weakened the hold of labor leaders over the increasingly militant rank and file. Political dissension within the Perónist movement has further shaken Mrs. Perón’s administration.

The impending meeting of black and white Rhodesian leaders — initially between Prime Minister Ian Smith and the National African Council — on a new constitution was substantially broadened with the announcement that Prime Minister John Vorster of South Africa and President Kenneth Kaunda of Zambia would participate in the first direct talks on how to avoid racial warfare in southern Africa. The South African and Zambian leaders will be present when Prime Minister Ian D. Smith of Rhodesia meets with the African National Council, an organization of several Rhodesian black nationalist leaders. They will begin preliminary talks on a new constitution for that racially divided country. The Rhodesian constitutional discussions will take place on a special South African train parked on the Zambezi River bridge just below the falls and on the present border between white‐ruled and black‐ruled Africa.


President Ford and Donald S. Macdonald, Canada’s Minister of Energy, Mines and Resources, declared today at the dedication of Libby Dam in Montana that their nations would have to go it alone in confronting energy problems. Mr. Ford and Mr. Macdonald pulled together on a large switch to begin generating electricity at the $470‐million dam, built with Canadian cooperation, on the Kootenai River in northwest Montana. Mr. Macdonald declared moments earlier that “Canada does not constitute some vast storehouse of energy.” He said that Ottawa had no choice but to phase out the shipment of Canadian crude oil and natural gas to the United States. Mr. Ford agreed, echoing Mr. Macdonald’s words that “enlightened self‐interest” should govern the extent of cooperation between the two countries on energy matters.

The Mobil Oil Corporation, the nation’s third largest oil company, broke ranks with other major petroleum companies by publicly opposing President Ford’s plan to decontrol all domestic oil prices next Sunday. Rawleigh Warner Jr., Mobil’s chairman, asked Congress to phase decontrol. Rawleigh Warner Jr., chairman of the nation’s third largest oil company, urged Congress, in effect, to override the President’s promised veto of a congressional bill that would extend such controls beyond August 31. Mr. Warner, in a letter mailed to members of Congress last. Friday, asserted that immediate total decontrol would unleash inflation and other problems and pose a “shock to America’s fragile economic recovery.” Instead, he urged Congress to enact a phased decontrol of oil prices over an extended period of time in the hope that a more healthy economy would take such higher fuel costs in stride. Mobil’s move is expected to further exacerbate the political conflict over national energy policies.

Asserting that “we are in the midst of a corporate crime wave,” Ralph Nader and four members of Congress, including three from the New York metropolitan area, urged the establishment of a division on corporate crime within the Justice Department. They made their recommendation in a letter to Attorney General Edward Levi, in which they asked for his support. The letter dealt mainly with violations by large corporations of the campaign finance laws and payments from secret political funds.

New York Representative Elizabeth Holtzman, in letters to Secretary of State Kissinger, has charged anew that the State Department is blocking efforts to investigate alleged Nazi war criminals living in the United States. In an exchange of correspondence with Mr. Kissinger’s office that she released yesterday, the Brooklyn Democrat accused the State Department of “continuing failure” to get in touch with officials in the Soviet Union and Eastern European nations for information on the suspects, as requested repeatedly by the Immigration and Naturalization Service. She called the State Department’s actions “plainly dilatory” and “utterly incomprehensible.”

In one of his most pessimistic assessments of the city’s fiscal crisis, Governor Carey of New York said that unless the federal government intervened, New York City had only a 50-50 chance of avoiding default. “If everything goes right, it’s 50-50,” he said in an interview. “But if the federal government said that default was not possible, the 50-50 would go to 90-10.” Asked whether his pessimism might not make it even more difficult to prevent default, the governor said: “I can’t mislead people about how serious the situation is.”

Lightning killed a 12-year-old boy and an 11-year-old boy, and a 9-year-old girl was reportedly swept down a sewer in swirling waters of a flooded street during a storm that struck the Cleveland area. The heavy thunderstorms flooded the Cleveland Zoo, stranding animals in water up to their necks, but all of them were saved. Police said streets broke up in several parts of the city because sewers were unable to handle water from the summer storm that dropped up to 4 inches of rain. A police dispatcher said there were reports of looting of abandoned houses in the Fourth District, but he could not say how extensive it was. He also said that the district was “a total wreck. We’ve had storm sewer back pressure blow streets 10 feet into the air, actually.” Small boats from the Coast Guard and harbor police were sent to rescue persons from flooded houses and cars.

Defiant coal miners meeting near Charleston, West Virginia, vowed to continue an illegal strike in the surrounding coal mines until they got a signed document permitting them to strike over local grievances without reprisals. Only a handful of the state’s mining force has avoided the mushrooming strike. Pickets have carried the walkout into neighboring states of Ohio, Kentucky and Virginia. More than 2,500 miners meeting in a roadside park made plans for a noon rally today outside the Federal Building in Charleston, where union leader Sim Howze was to appear on a contempt of court charge.

Oklahoma has established its own refugee relocation program, pledging to find sponsors for 1,500 Vietnamese. That number is in addition to the 1,919 Vietnamese refugees already sponsored by individual residents of Oklahoma. Within the first four days of its operation here last week the volunteer‐staffed Oklahoma placement office placed 400 refugees. The idea for the state to officially become involved in the refugee project originated with William E. Foster, an assistant to Governor David L. Boren. Mr. Foster’s family had already sponsored one refugee.

Federal prosecutors investigating political corruption in Maryland have subpoenaed records of Governor Marvin Mandel’s twice-monthly salary checks and allowances for the operation of the governor’s mansion. The subpoenas from the U.S. attorney’s office in Baltimore were delivered to state Comptroller Louis L. Goldstein. “Those figures are no secret. The whole world knows them. They’re in the budget every year. I don’t know why they sent subpoenas,” the governor said. Mandel gets an annual salary of $25,000. The allowance for government House has been around $29,000 for years but was increased to $40,000 this year.

A large part of the American tuna fleet is meeting at sea for a demonstration in San Diego Bay tomorrow to dramatize the fishermen’s anger over violations of an international conservation zone extending across 5 million square miles of the eastern Pacific. The American Tuna Boat Association reported that at least 43 seiners, cutting short their voyages because of meager catches outside the restricted zone with losses totaling about $12‐million, were already assembled around. Mexico’s Offshore Coronado Islands in preparation for the demonstration. The protest, backed by a threat to join the poachers in the conservation area, is aimed at forcing a showdown with Washington over intrusions of the zone by foreign flag vessels in disregard of a 1966 international treaty sponsored by the United States.

The parents of Mary Jo Kopechne indicate in an article published by New Times magazine that they are not satisfied with Senator Edward M. Kennedy’s account of the auto mishap that look their daughter’s life. In the interview, the Kopechnes say they believe Miss Kopechne was sleeping in the back seat of Mr. Kennedy’s car when it plunged off a bridge on Chappaquiddick Island six years ago. Her mother, Gwen Kopechne, is quoted further as saying that she believes Mr. Kennedy a Massachusetts Democrat, “was still confused” about the mishap when he made his first statements and also “had poor advice, right from the time it happened.” “I think the got so involved in this lousy advice and then couldn’t back out and tell the truth. He got deeper and beeper into it,” Mrs. Kopechne is quoted as saying in the magazine article scheduled to be published tomorrow.

The Federal Trade Commission accused Block Drug Co. of making false and unsubstantiated advertising claims for its denture products — Polident Cleanser and Poli-Grip adhesive. Block ranks second in the big denture market, which has annual sales of up to $132 million. The FTC complaint said the use of Poli-Grip or Super Poli-Grip did not spare denture wearers embarrassment or discomfort when eating such “problem” foods as apples, steak, corn-on-the-cob and caramels. The FTC alleged also that the Jersey City, New Jersey, firm had no basis for claiming that Polident cleaned better than a rival product.

The Monsanto Co. has deducted more than $1 million for political contributions from the salaries of at least 1,800 executive’s since 1968, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported. The newspaper said Monsanto lobbyists had channeled money from the contributions plan to political candidates ranging from a Southern sheriff to the U.S. President. The paper said the candidates had in common conservative, pro-business policies. Company President John W. Hanley confirmed that funds were deducted from executives’ salaries but said the contributions were strictly voluntary and no employee was pressured to participate.

The North American Soccer League, the major professional soccer football league in North America, played its 8th championship, but the first to be called the “Soccer Bowl”. In a match of two expansion teams playing their first seasons, the Tampa Bay Rowdies defeated the Portland Timbers, 2 to 0, with goals coming from Arsène Auguste of Haiti and Clyde Best of Bermuda.

PGA Tournament Players Championship, Colonial CC: Al Geiberger leads wire-to-wire to finish 3 strokes ahead of runner-up Dave Stockton.


Major League Baseball:

Bill Lee gained his 17th victory while Wilbur Wood drew his 17th defeat as the Red Sox beat the White Sox, 6–1. Wood yielded a homer by Carl Yastrzemski in first inning. The White Sox picked up their lone run in the fifth with the aid of an error. The Red Sox broke away in their half, scoring twice on a double by Fred Lynn, single by Dwight Evans, sacrifice fly by Rick Burleson and singles by Bob Montgomery and Bob Heise. Jim Rice added a run to the Red Sox total with a homer in the sixth.

Strikeout artists Frank Tanana and Nolan Ryan each fanned eight as the Angels swept the Yankees in a doubleheader, 9–0 and 4–3. Tanana, who hurled the route in the opener and yielded only four hits, brought his season’s whiff total to 197 for 189 ⅓ innings. The Angels backed their lefthander with a 13-hit attack, including a two-run homer by Mike Miley. In the nightcap, the Angels collected only four hits, but capitalized on seven walks and six errors. Ryan was kayoed in the seventh. The righthander’s strikeouts increased his total to 186 for 198 ⅓ innings. The Angels scored what proved to be the winning run in the eighth. Walt Williams dropped a fly ball by Leroy Stanton, who reached second on the error. John Balaz sacrificed and Jerry Remy drove in a run with a sacrifice fly. The Yankees came back with homers by Graig Nettles and Ed Herrmann off Dick Lange in their half of the eighth, but Jim Brewer saved the game as the Angels’ fifth pitcher.

With the bases loaded in the ninth inning, Lenny Randle beat the throw home on Mike Hargrove’s grounder to Tim Nordbrook to bring the Rangers an 8–7 victory over the Orioles. The Rangers, who had an early homer by Dave Nelson, went ahead in the eighth, 7–6, when Tom Grieve hit for the circuit with a man on base, but Ken Singleton tied the score with a boundary belt in the ninth. Randle singled with one out in the Rangers’ half, Cesar Tovar doubled and Nelson was handed an intentional pass before Hargrove grounded to Nordbrook, whose throw home was too late to force Randle.

After giving up seven hits in the first five innings, Jim Hughes did not yield another safety the rest of the way and pitched the Twins to a 3–1 victory over the Tigers. The Twins broke a 1–1 tie in the fifth inning and beat Mickey Lolich with two runs on a triple by Dave McKay and singles by Glenn Borgmann, Jerry Terrell and Craig Kusick.

Hal McRae and George Brett figured in the scoring of four runs as the Royals ended their three-game losing streak by defeating the Indians, 5–2. McRae homered in the first inning and batted in another run with a grounder in the fifth. Brett tripled a run across in the fourth and scored himself when George Hendrick made a bad throw home after catching a short fly ball by Al Cowens.

The Brewers ended their eight-game losing streak by coming from behind to defeat the Athletics, 7–6. The crowd of 17,231 at game raised the Brewers’ total to 1,106,127, breaking the club’s attendance record of 1,092,158 in 1973. The A’s built up a 5–1 lead before the Brewers erupted for three runs in the seventh inning on singles by Charlie Moore and Bill Sharp, sacrifice fly by Mike Hegan and homer by Kurt Bevacqua. Robin Yount led off the eighth with a homer to tie the score. Hank Aaron walked and gave way to Pedro Garcia. Darrell Porter singled. Moore then doubled, driving in both Garcia and Porter for the winning blow. However, the Brewers needed a sensational relief performance by Tom Murphy in the ninth to save the game. After four consecutive walks forced in a run with none out, Murphy retired Gene Tenace and Rich McKinney on pop-ups and struck out Phil Garner.

Ed Halicki of the San Francisco Giants pitched a no-hitter against the New York Mets; the Giants wouldn’t win another no-hitter until 2009. Halicki, the Giants’ 6-7 righthander, pitched the first no-hitter in the National League this season and won the nightcap of a doubleheader, 6–0, after the Mets had pounded their way to a 9–5 victory in the opener on the strength of a grand-slam homer by Dave Kingman. Halicki’s no-hitter was the first in Candlestick Park since Gaylord Perry, then with the Giants, and Ray Washburn of the Cardinals turned in back-to-back gems in 1968. Halicki struck out 10. Only three Mets reached base. Rusty Staub was safe on an error by Derrel Thomas in the fifth, Mike Vail walked in the sixth and Del Unser drew a pass in the ninth. Controversy arises when Rusty Staub hits a ball off Halicki’s leg, which caroms to the 2B Derrel Thomas, who picks it up then drops it. Official scorer Joe Sargis rules it an E-4. New York columnist Dick Young, watching the game on TV, writes that it should be a hit and accuses Sargis of subscribing to the theory that the first hit off a starter should be a “good one.” The no-hitter stands but UPI’s Sargis loses his job as a sometime scorer.

Lou Brock stole the 800th base of his career in the first inning when the Cardinals scored three runs to start on their way to a 6–2 victory over the Braves. After Brock singled and stole second, Willie Davis doubled, Brock stopping at third. Ted Simmons grounded to Rob Belloir and was safe at first as Brock scored when the Braves failed to catch Davis in a rundown between second and third. Davis then crossed the plate on a grounder by Reggie Smith and Simmons made it home when Earl Williams bobbled a grounder by Ted Sizemore. Brock added his 801st stolen base in the fourth inning.

Al Oliver drove in three runs with a homer and triple in support of Jerry Reuss, who pitched the Pirates to a 5–1 victory over the Reds. With a crowd of 35,598 on hand, the Pirates’ home attendance went over the million mark for the sixth straight season. The Reds scored their run in the first inning on a single by Pete Rose, forceout by Doug Flynn, single by Joe Morgan and sacrifice fly by Johnny Bench, but the Pirates came back with two in their half on a single by Rennie Stennett, Oliver’s triple and a sacrifice fly by Willie Stargell. Oliver blasted his homer with Stennett on base via a single in the third inning.

Jose Cruz cracked two homers and Bob Watson and Cliff Johnson hit one apiece as the Astros overpowered the Cubs, 8–4. Johnson’s homer was his fifth in the last five games, setting a Houston club record. Wilbur Howard also had a big day, collecting four of the Astros’ 14 hits. The Cubs were held to six hits by Larry Dierker, including a homer by Andre Thornton.

After Randy Jones posted his 17th victory, winning the first game of a doubleheader, 7–2, the Padres also defeated the Phillies in the second game, 7–6, in 12 innings. The defeats dropped the Phillies three games behind the Pirates in the East Division race and into a tie with the Cardinals for second place. In the opener, the Padres picked up two unearned runs in the first inning and then clinched the outcome in the third when Bobby Tolan singled and Dave Winfield homered. In the nightcap, the Phillies forced the game into overtime with two runs in the ninth on singles by Dave Cash, Larry Bowa and Greg Luzinski and a double by Ollie Brown. However in the 12th, Bob Davis walked, took second on a balk by Ron Schueler and scored the Padres’ winning run when Tolan singled.

A wild pitch by Mike Marshall and throwing error by John Hale helped the Expos score three runs in the 14th inning to defeat the Dodgers, 5–3. Davey Lopes stole three bases before his record string of 38 successful thefts in a row was snapped when the Dodgers’ speedster was thrown out by Gary Carter, Expos’ catcher. Carter walked to open the 14th, took third on a single by Pete Mackanin and scored on Marshall’s wild pitch to break a 2–2 tie. After Jose Morales walked, Pepe Frias lifted a foul fly to Hale and when the right fielder uncorked a wild throw to third, Mackanin scored. Jim Lyttle then doubled to drive in Morales.
