The Administration’s strongest effort to convince world opinion of the need for a realistic but positive approaching to dealing with the Soviet Union will be set forth this week by President Reagan during his visit to the United Nations, White House officials said. They said Mr. Reagan, in a major speech to the General Assembly Thursday, would set the stage for the coming meeting with the Soviet leader, Mikhail S. Gorbachev, by providing a “realistic assessment” of the state of relations between the two superpowers.
Politically strengthened by a warm letter of conciliation from President Reagan, Italy’s caretaker Prime Minister, Bettino Craxi, today seemed virtually certain of being asked to form a new government. Politicians in the old Government’s five-party coalition welcomed Mr. Reagan’s letter expressing confidence in Mr. Craxi and in Italian-American friendship, seeing it as a way of ending the fierce polemics between Italy and the United States over the last week. The arguments, as well as the fall of Mr. Craxi’s Government, were brought about by Italy’s decision to free a Palestinian leader accused by Washington of “masterminding” the hijacking of the Achille Lauro cruise ship. After consulting with all the party leaders, the Italian President, Francesco Cossiga, was expected to announce his choice for a new government leader on Monday.
World leaders gathered in New York for the observance of the 40th anniversary of the United Nations. Kings and princes, presidents and prime ministers and generals arrived in a maze of motorcades. Many spent the day sightseeing.
Tens of thousands of demonstrators marched through Brussels to protest deployment of U.S.-made cruise missiles in Belgium, and hundreds of West Germans protested the visit of three American warships, including the battleship Iowa, to Kiel. The Brussels demonstrators carried banners saying, “No Cruise in Belgium, No (Soviet) SS-20s Aimed at Belgium.” In Kiel, about 300 persons, in a protest organized by the West German Communist Party, demonstrated against the U.S. ships’ visit. But about 15,000 people went to the port to tour the vessels, which recently took part in maneuvers in the Baltic.
A worldwide “counterterrorist network” aborted 80 “terror operations” that were under way earlier this year, William J. Casey, director of the CIA, told Time magazine in an interview. He also said that a number of countries provided help and information in the capture of the Achille Lauro hijackers but declined to name them. Casey said about 50 major terrorist organizations operate as mercenaries for hire by various nations, although Iran and Libya maintain their own “apparatus.” On Soviet intelligence, Casey said he “wouldn’t mark it very high.” He said that in the last three years, the Soviets have lost 200 of their intelligence officers, arrested or expelled from 20 to 25 countries.
Egypt said Tunisia had helped the United States intercept the Egyptian plane carrying the four hijackers of the Achille Lauro. President Hosni Mubarak said he was certain that there had been such collusion. A White House spokesman strongly denied it.
Lebanese political leaders said today that Syria had abandoned its efforts to gain the release of Americans kidnapped in Lebanon in the last year and a half. The political leaders said Syria had been angered by the American interception of an Egyptian airliner carrying the hijackers of the cruise ship Achille Lauro. The four hijackers were arrested after the plane was forced to land in Sicily.
President Mohammad Zia ul-Haq of Pakistan said today that he hoped his meeting with Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi of India on Wednesday would “pave the way for a better, friction-free relationship” between the two countries. “We thought we could meet here to explore the possibilities of how to get over the snail’s pace of normalization of relations,” he said in an interview. The two leaders, who are attending the 40th anniversary commemoration of the United Nations, have met twice before, at the funerals of Indira Gandhi, the slain Prime Minister of India, and of Konstantin U. Chernenko, the Soviet leader. On a separate matter, General Zia reiterated his pledge to sign the treaty banning the spread of nuclear weapons and to open his country’s nuclear plants to international safeguards and inspection if India agreed to do the same. He said a regional policy was necessary to deal with the nuclear abilities of the two countries.
A North Korean boat suspected of spying was sunk after a gun battle with a South Korean navy ship off the southeast port of Pusan, South Korea’s Defense Ministry said. It reported no South Korean casualties and said the ship sustained only minor damage. It did not say what happened to the North Korean crew. The North Korean vessel had ignored a challenge to stop and was sunk after a three-hour nighttime chase, South Korean officials said. They suspected an attempt to put armed agents ashore in the south. The clash came a day after the north returned 12 crew members from a South Korean fishing boat seized off the North Korean coast October 6.
More than 2,000 people protesting expansion of Narita International Airport near Tokyo fought 9,500 riot police with stones and steel pipes. Authorities said at least 53 policemen were injured and 239 people were arrested in one of the most violent protests since the facility opened in 1978. Organizers said 200 demonstrators were injured. A coalition of leftists, farmers and students objects to the airport because it forced the eviction of farmers and because they fear it may be used for military purposes.
Soviet Deputy Foreign Minister Leonid F. Ilyichev left Peking after a seventh round of normalization talks with China failed to make progress on the major obstacles between the Communist neighbors. The official New China News Agency called the discussions useful and businesslike, but Chinese negotiator Qian Qichen told reporters at Peking airport that he was dissatisfied because the top problems remained unresolved. The major issues are Cambodia, Afghanistan and Soviet troops on China’s border. An eighth round is scheduled for April, 1986.
Defeat of the anti-Sandinistas was predicted by President Daniel Ortega Saavedra of Nicaragua. He said the military situation had swung sharply in favor of the Sandinista Army, and that the army would decisively defeat the anti-Government rebels “in the next few months.” He also said that the imminence of a “strategic victory” over the United States-supported rebels had been behind his announcement of the suspension of Nicaragua’s civil liberties last week.
Police in Zimbabwe raided squatter camps in Harare before dawn, detaining more than 1,000 people and setting fire to their shantytowns. A police spokesman indicated that many of those arrested will be sent to rural areas for resettlement. Urban squatters in African countries often come from rural areas looking for work. Governments complain that criminals find refuge in their sprawling settlements and that the camps, lacking sanitation, pose health risks.
Commonwealth leaders agreed tonight to impose limited economic sanctions against South Africa and to set up a group to try to persuade the Pretoria Government to negotiate with black leaders on ending apartheid. The agreement gave South Africa six months to “bring about concrete progress” or face tougher sanctions, including a ban on airline flights. Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher of Britain, who initially had opposed economic sanctions, said tonight: “It was worth paying some price to keep the Commonwealth together. It was hard going.” Britain is South Africa’s main trading partner.
A white motorist was reported today to have shot dead a mixed-race man who stoned his car near here Saturday, and three other people were killed during the weekend in political violence around the Cape region. Turmoil, meanwhile, spread to Atteridgeville, a segregated black township outside Pretoria, after the funeral today of a 13-year-old black said to have been kicked to death by a policeman while on his way to a prayer meeting a week ago. In Port Elizabeth, the home of a white activist who has espoused militant black causes was badly damaged by an explosion Saturday night, but the police declined to say whether the blast had been caused by a bomb.
Leon Klinghoffer’s body was ceremoniously returned to New York, his native city. An Army guard of honor saluted when his coffin arrived at Kennedy International Airport. A message of sympathy from President Reagan was read and he was eulogized by New York legislators. Mr. Klinghoffer’s body arrived from Rome where it had been taken after washing up on Syria’s coast. It had been thrown overboard after he had been killed by the hijackers of the Achille Lauro.
President Reagan spends the day at the White House.
Smaller pay rises face Americans in 1986, the fifth consecutive year that the typical American worker will get a raise less than in the previous year. Scores of corporations are planning smaller raises — if they are raising pay at all. Economists say this is very unusual at such an advanced stage in an economic recovery.
Chrysler’s Canadian employees won their union’s principal economic demand, which was to bring their wages and benefits up to levels at General Motors and Ford in Canada. The Canadian United Automobile Workers tentatively agreed to settle its strike that began Thursday over the wage and benefits issue.
Office buildings and hotels are rising in record numbers in cities across the country although vacancy rates in existing structures are exceptionally high. At the same time, millions of moderate-income people are unable to afford adequate housing despite increased home construction and improved economic conditions since the 1982 recession. Experts say the trends are the result of major changes in federal policy and in financial institutions since the 1970’s.
Scrutiny of immigration lawyers by federal officials is part of a wide-ranging investigation into what the officials say are widespread fraudulent schemes to obtain visas, work permits and other benefits for aliens. Immigration lawyers say the investigations are designed to discourage lawyers from vigorous representation of aliens.
Leaders of the sanctuary movement that has sheltered Central American refugees will go on trial Tuesday in Tucson, Arizona. What some see as an act of conscience the government has called defiance of the immigration law. It has also led to the most serious confrontation between church and state since some churches counseled and harbored draft resisters in the Vietnam war. On trial will be a Quaker, a Presbyterian minister, two Roman Catholic priests, a nun and six church lay workers.
Security measures at the nation’s airports have detected tens of thousands of firearms and may have averted more than 100 hijackings but need to be strengthened, a congressional report said. The report urged more extensive background checks of the people who staff security posts at the airports and more research and development on new technology to detect weapons and explosives. Since 1973, the Federal Aviation Administration’s program for screening passengers and their carry-on baggage has detected more than 30,000 firearms and resulted in the arrest of nearly 13,000 people. An estimated 78.4 billion pieces of carry-on baggage have been screened since 1973, the report noted.
The body of a National Guardsman who drowned when his military ambulance was washed away by a flood was recovered today, but a teen-ager who was lost after her family’s car washed into a lake was still missing. The Guardsman was one of four who were riding in an ambulance Saturday when it was washed into Henson Creek at Fort Hood after more than 8 inches of rain fell on parts of Texas.
The Maryland Senate adjourned early in Annapolis before it could vote on a plan to let Chase Manhattan Bank buy three ailing thrifts, but both chambers were due back in session today, Chase’s deadline on the transaction. If the deal goes through, it would free about $500 million in frozen deposits and relieve the state of the responsibility of insuring funds at the three savings and loan associations.
Disposable diapers have such potential to injure infants that they should carry warning labels, a University of Virginia assistant professor told doctors. Dr. Charles Johnson presented a paper on the hazards of disposable diapers to the American Academy of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, now meeting in Atlanta. Johnson. said that between 1979 and 1983, 15 children in the United States had died from suffocation after ingesting the plastic coverings of disposable diapers.
Long-missing fingerprints from “the Crime of the Century,” the 1932 kidnaping-murder of aviator Charles Lindbergh’s infant son, have surfaced and may help shed light on theories that the Lindbergh baby was never murdered, lawyers said in Trenton, New Jersey. The finding of nine sets of fingerprints, believed to be those of Charles Lindbergh Jr., the aviator’s infant son, “is of tremendous significance,” said Trudy Maran, a New Jersey lawyer representing Anna Hauptmann in the $100-million wrongful-death suit filed over the 1936 execution of her husband. The existence of fingerprints has been confirmed by Colonel Clinton A. Pagano, state police superintendent, who said of his plan for a Tuesday press conference: “We’ll have a number of interesting issues to discuss.”
The state will soon require New York’s more than 220,000 employable welfare recipients to work or enter job training programs and cut benefits for any who refuse to comply, Department of Social Services officials said. Social Services Commissioner Cesar Perales said it was the most comprehensive program in the nation and was designed to make welfare recipients “self-sufficient.”
Prosecutors in New Orleans will resume their attempts today to prove that Louisiana Governor Edwin Edwards and seven associates illegally manipulated the state Health Department to win hospital and nursing home permits while blocking applications from competitors. The trial is entering its sixth week and is expected to go at least another five weeks before a verdict is returned.
A humpback whale that wandered into the Sacramento River almost a week ago was seen smacking its tail on the water’s surface Saturday, apparently a sign of distress, a wildlife official said today. “That’s how whales communicate with each other,” said Susan Bailey, a weekend supervisor at the Marine Mammal Center in Sausalito.
Most states do not keep records on juvenile offenses, even though many recent initiatives have been aimed at singling out likely career criminals, the Justice Department said Sunday. A survey showed that in December, 1984, 26 states indicated they had “no juvenile records.” Even among states that did keep such files, juvenile statistics were considered insignificant. But the department said “evidence suggests that the public is growing more inclined to hold juveniles criminally culpable.”
At 81, Erskine Caldwell is being recognized as one of the South’s great writers. The Georgia Endowment for the Humanities has organized a program in his honor.
1985 World Series, Game Two:
The Royals went up 2–0 in the fourth off of Danny Cox when Willie Wilson hit a leadoff single that was followed by back-to-back RBI doubles by George Brett and Frank White. However Charlie Leibrandt continued a history of tough luck in the postseason. The previous year, he had lost Game 3 of the 1984 ALCS, 1–0, to the Detroit Tigers when he pitched a three-hit complete game. He lost Game 4 in the 1985 ALCS in the ninth inning. Clinging to a two-run lead in the ninth of this game, manager Dick Howser opted to not send in his relief ace Dan Quisenberry to close out the game. Leibrandt allowed a leadoff double to Willie McGee, then was only one out from tying the series at one apiece when he allowed an RBI single to Jack Clark. After a double and walk loaded the bases, Terry Pendleton cleared them with a double and gave the Cardinals a 4–2 lead. Quisenberry came in and after he walked Darrell Porter he got out of the inning. Jeff Lahti earned a save with a scoreless bottom of the inning. The Cardinals’ four run ninth would be the only inning in the series in which they scored more than one run. The Cardinals now lead the series, 2–0, with two road wins, and the next three games to be played in St. Louis.
St. Louis Cardinals 4, Kansas City Royals 2
NFL Football:
Warren Moon threw two touchdown passes and Mike Rozier ran for another as Houston snapped a five-game losing streak, thumping the Bengals, 44–27. The Oilers (2–5) defense contributed to the victory by recovering two fumbles and intercepting three Boomer Esiason passes in the second half. Moon threw a 34-yard touchdown to Drew Hill and a 24-yard strike to Mike McCloskey in the fourth quarter. The Oilers jumped to a 17–3 lead in the second quarter on Larry Moriarty’s first touchdown run of the season, Tony Zendejas’s 34-yard field goal and Rozier’s 3-yard run. The Bengals (2–5) rallied to 17–13 at the half on field goals of 47 and 22 by Jim Breech and Esiason’s 20-yard touchdown pass to Eddie Brown. Houston regained the momentum in the third quarter when Bo Eason intercepted an Esiason pass and returned it 55 yards to the Cincinnati 30, setting up a 1-yard touchdown by Stan Edwards. Zendejas added a 28-yard field goal and the nose guard Mike Stensrud set up Moon’s 34-yard strike to Hill by intercepting another Esiason pass.
James Jones rushed for a career-high 116 yards and a touchdown and Ed Murray kicked three field goals as Detroit downed San Francisco, 23–21. Jones, who carried the ball 30 times and helped the Lions (4–3) gain 162 yards rushing, scored from 2 yards out early in the second quarter. Detroit had gained just 84 yards rushing in its last two games, which it lost by a combined 54 points. Murray kicked field goals of 24 and 41 yards in the second quarter and added a 45-yarder near the end of the third period as Detroit built a 23–14 lead. San Francisco (3–4) pulled to 23-21 early in the fourth quarter when Roger Craig ran 11 yards into the end zone to cap a 10-play, 95-yard drive, but were unable to get close enough to get anymore points.
Tommy Kramer threw a 26-yard touchdown pass to Leo Lewis with 19 seconds to play to lift Minnesota over the Chargers, 21–17. Kramer completed 31 of 46 passes for 311 yards. An interception by Linden King with about 11 minutes to play had set up San Diego’s go-ahead touchdown, a 1-yard dive by Jim Spencer with 6:13 to play on a drive directed by Dan Fouts, who replaced an ineffective Mark Herrmann in the fourth quarter after having missed most of the last two games with a knee injury. Fouts completed 7 of 10 passes for 63 yards after replacing Herrmann, who was 12 of 26 for 128 yards. Spencer ran for 86 yards and two touchdowns for the Chargers (3–4). Five plays after John Turner intercepted Herrmann’s final pass of the game late in the third quarter and returned it to Minnesota’s 36-yard line, Kramer found the tight end Mark Mullarkey wide open for a 51-yard touchdown pass on the first play of the fourth period to give the Vikings (4–3) a 14–10 lead.
Mark Malone threw a 45-yard touchdown pass to Louis Lipps and Frank Pollard scored on a 14-yard run in a three-minute span in the first quarter to lift Pittsburgh past St. Louis, 23–10. Gary Anderson kicked three field goals as the Steelers (3–4) ended a three-game losing streak by turning three Cardinal turnovers into scores. St. Louis (3–4) lost its third in a row. Neil Lomax, the St. Louis quarterback, passed for only 26 yards in the first half as the Cardinals offense crossed the 50-yard line only once in the first three quarters. St. Louis has scored only 27 points in its last three games. Lipps got behind the Cardinal cornerback Cedric Mack to catch his seventh touchdown pass of the season with 3:00 left in the first period. The catch gave the Steelers a 7–3 lead. The Steelers made it 14–3 on the final play of the quarter, with Pollard racing untouched into the end zone.
Rookie defensive back Daniel Hunter returned an interception 20 yards to set up a 24-yard field goal by Rich Karlis 9 minutes 19 seconds into overtime to lift the Denver Broncos to a 13–10 victory today over the Seattle Seahawks. The Bronco defense, compensating for an offense that went sour after the first half, sacked the Seattle quarterback Dave Krieg three times in the overtime period, including the two plays immediately preceding Hunter’s interception. The Seahawks (4–3) had overcome a 10–0 deficit as Krieg threw a 9-yard touchdown pass to Largent late in the third quarter and Norm Johnson kicked a 39-yard field goal with 5:46 remaining in regulation. Denver (5–2) took the game’s opening kickoff and drove for its only touchdown. Sammy Winder capped the 80-yard, 9-play drive with a twisting, 36-yard touchdown run. The Broncos made it 10–0 early in the third quarter, capitalizing on safety Tony Lilly’s interception at the Seahawk 30-yard line. Karlis hit the 45-yard field goal with 10:30 left in the period.
The Giants knew that if they could shut down the Washington Redskins’ running game today, they would probably win. In addition, if they could put together a good running game of their own, they almost surely would win. That is just what happened. The Redskin running game was choked off, the Giant running game thrived and the Giants churned out a 17–3 victory. The Redskins had never scored so few points in Joe Gibbs’s five years as head coach. Coach Bill Parcells of the Giants called his team’s victory “probably our best overall game all year.” Lawrence Taylor, the Giants’ all-pro linebacker who had been in a slump, had a big game because, he said, “I played pretty good and I hustled pretty well.” The Giants held Riggins to 35 yards in 11 carries. George Rogers, who alternated with Riggins in the one-back offense, made 25 yards in 6 carries. In all, the Redskins gained only 69 yards rushing. The Giants also made seven sacks — two by Taylor, two by Andy Headen, one and a half by Leonard Marshall and one and a half by Jerome Sally. The victory moved the Giants to within a game of the first-place Dallas Cowboys in the National Conference’s Eastern Division. The Cowboys, after a 16–14 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, have a 5–2 record. The Giants are 4–3.
So there they were, on the 8-yard line, with a fourth down and 34 seconds left in the game. The Los Angeles Raiders were trailing the Cleveland Browns, 20–14, and in the huddle Marc Wilson had just called something known to his teammates as “94-option.” But as the Raiders made their way to the line, with nearly 78,000 fans imploring the Browns’ defense to hang on for one more snap, Wilson shouted a critical addendum to the play to his tight end, Todd Christensen. “Get open.” So that’s all it takes. Christensen, a master receiver close to the goal line, ran toward the end zone, faked a move to the outside, which froze the linebacker Chip Banks, and then cut to his right in front of the strong safety Al Gross. When he looked up, the ball was there for a touchdown. Chris Bahr kicked the extra point, and that’s how the Raiders beat the Browns, 21–20, for a fourth-straight victory that pushed their record to 5–2 in the American Conference West.
Mike Lansford kicked three field goals to go with an Eric Dickerson touchdown and the defense intercepted six passes as Los Angeles raised its record to 7–0, downing the Chiefs, 16–0. Every member of the Rams’ starting secondary had either an interception or a fumble recovery as the Rams recorded their first shutout in six years. The Chiefs dropped to 3–4 with their third straight loss. After a scoreless first period, the Rams took charge with 13 points in the second quarter, capitalizing on three turnovers. The Kansas City quarterback Todd Blackledge, playing for the injured Bill Kenney, threw five interceptions to equal the Chiefs’ single-game record.
Fuad Reveiz’s 43-yard field goal with six seconds remaining spoiled a Tampa Bay comeback and gave Miami a 41–38 victory over the Buccaneers. Reveiz’s game-winning kick came at the end of a 4-play, 45-yard drive that the quarterback Dan Marino started from his own 29-yard line with 38 seconds left. It snapped a tie the Buccaneers had gained with 17 unanswered points in the fourth quarter. Marino, who threw for 302 yards, began the march with an 11-yard completion to Duriel Harris. He then teamed with Tony Nathan on plays covering 19 and 15 yards to give the Dolphins a first down at the Tampa Bay 26. Marino also threw three touchdown passes as the Dolphins withstood four scoring passes by Tampa Bay’s quarterback, Steve DeBerg, to the tight end Jimmie Giles. Marino tossed scoring passes of 16 yards to Nat Moore and 4 yards to Jim Jensen on Miami’s first two offensive possessions. The Dolphins (5–2) rolled to a 24–14 halftime lead and led 38–21 after Nathan scored on a 1-yard run and Marino threw a 3-yard scoring pass to Bruce Hardy in the third quarter. Tampa Bay (0–7) capitalized on two Marino turnovers — a fumble and interception — in the first eight minutes of the fourth quarter to get back in the game.
Ron Jaworski’s touchdown pass to Kenny Jackson in the fourth quarter today gave the Philadelphia Eagles a 16–14 victory over the Dallas Cowboys. The Eagles were behind, 14–9, with 10 minutes 7 seconds remaining in the game when a Jaworski pass was tipped by Everson Walls, the Cowboy cornerback, into the hands of Jackson at the Dallas 25. Jaworski, despite being sacked four times, completed 22 of 35 passes for a career-high 380 yards. He directed three drives that wound up in field goals of 39, 33 and 36 yards by Paul McFadden.
With an injured Freeman McNeil wanting to play but merely a sideline cheerleader who was shaking teammates’ hands as they came off the field, the Jets’ five-game winning streak ended today where other bad memories remain for them. The New England Patriots, a team starting a quarterback who had seemed as if his better playing days were behind him, scored a 20–13 upset. Last season here, the Patriots pushed the Jets, who came into that game with a 6–2 record, on a downward spiral. Steve Grogan, the 32-year-old quarterback whose surgically-repaired knee made him a reserve, scored the winning touchdown with fewer than 4 minutes remaining to break a 13–13 tie. Playing because Tony Eason had a sprained shoulder, Grogan dashed 3 yards to his left on a bootleg after faking a handoff to the right that drew all the Jets to that side of the field. It was the first rushing touchdown by the Patriots since the season’s opener.
Rookie Mike Gann returned a fumble 42 yards for a touchdown and Cliff Austin ran back a kickoff 96 yards for another as Atlanta won for the first time this season, beating the Saints, 31–24. The Saints (3–4) also had two crucial interceptions — one leading to an Atlanta touchdown and the other stopping a scoring threat after reaching the Falcons’ one. Besides the three critical turnovers, the Saints also lost a 61-yard kickoff return by Carl Roaches at the start of the second half on a penalty. Gann’s fumble return touchdown came with 8:04 left in the second quarter, breaking a 7–7 deadlock and putting the Falcons ahead to stay.
With the help of Buffalo’s old and new running back Joe Cribbs, Greg Bell rushed for two touchdowns as the Bills snapped an eight-game losing streak Sunday with a 21–9 victory over the Indianapolis Colts. It was Hank Bullough’s first victory as an NFL coach and avenged a 49–17 defeat to the Colts in his debut two weeks ago. Buffalo is 1–6, while Indianapolis fell to 2–5. “It was a long time coming,” Bullough said of the victory. Asked if Cribbs, who was playing in his first game since signing with Buffalo September 11, contributed to the victory, despite his unimpressive statistics, Bullough said: “What type of statistics do you go by? Why not go by blocking. That is the statistic that counts for me. That’s a team statistic.” Cribbs, the former Buffalo star who spent two years in the United States Football League, rushed for 41 yards and caught two passes for 12 yards, but Bullough’s ledger shows Cribbs with several crucial blocks, including the key ones on Bell’s two touchdown runs.
