were set on fire. The beach is 13
miles from Jerusalem and three
miles south of the Abdullah Bridge
spanning the Jordan River.
There were conflicting reports
about the origin of the shell fire.
One source said the victims were
caught in a mortar and artillery
duel between Israeli and Jordanian
forces. A Jordanian military spokes -
man in Amman said there had
been a 90-minute exchange of fire
near Al Maghtass, four miles north
of the Dead Sea, Tuesday. Ottwr
reports attributed the shelling to
Iraqi units stationed in Jordan.
They said the shell fragments were
from mortar shells used by the
Iraqi army but not by Jordanian
forces.
Miss Anderson and Miss Bon-
net were visiting Israel on their
way home from Kinshasa in the
Congo where they had taught
at the American Community
School for the past two years.
The school is run by the Chris-
tian services program of the
Mennonite Brotherhood.
The girls had gone to the
beach with 23 other tourists. The
beach is reached by a winding
and steep road which made it
almost impossible to escape
ists, although in several cases,
tourists had to rush for shelter.
Amman Radio blamed Israel for
the fatality, claiming Israel delib-
erately endangered the lives of
foreign visitors for propaganda ad-
vantages. Kallia, where the 122-
millimeter shells fell, is popular
for its health spa and fresh water
springs. but it is less than a mile
from the cease-fire line and has
come under sporadic rocket and-
artillery fire.
Fatah Leaders Tell Cairo Paper
They've Changed Tactics
LONDON (JTA) — The comman-
der of the El Fatah guerrilla or-
ganization says his group has
changed its tactics from hit-and-run
raids to direct though limited con-
frontations with the Israel army.
According to the Cairo newspaper
Al Akhbar, which published an in-
terview with Yassir Arafat, the
commando leader who cited a re-
cent battle with Israeli troops in
the Samarian hills north of Jeru-
salem as an example of the new
tactics.
According to Israeli spokes-
men, a band of eight Arabs was
wiped out in a four-hour battle
last week in which three Israeli
soldiers lost their lives. The
guerillas • were concealed in
caves and Israeli forces used ar-
tillery to blast them out. The
Al Akhbar interview gave no
reason for the change in tactics.
Israeli soldiers, who escaped a
hand grenade that missed their ve-
hicle in Gaza's busy Medina
Square Monday, rushed to the aid
of local Arabs who were wounded
when the missile exploded in a
crowded coffee house. One Arab
was killed, and two were reported
injured.
Israel's strongest assault on Jor-
dan this year occurred Wednesday
when Israeli jet fighters attacked
Iraqi and Jordanian artillery units
for five straight hours.
Arab gun batteries were attacked
by jet planes which had crossed the
Jordan River cease-fire line to a 30-
