Eitan stated flatly in newspaper interviews that he has no intention of quit- ting despite demands by MK Uri Avneri of the Shelli faction for his resignation. A petition in support of Eitan was circulated bear- ing hundreds of signatures of students and paratroop- ers. Nevertheless, Avneri said that if Eitan refuses to resign, Shelli would de- mand the appointment of a judicial investigating corn- mittee to find out whey Eitan reduced the sentence of 24 year-old former Lt. Daniel Pinto from eight to two years. Avneri denied that he was in any way responsi- ble for foreign news- paper reports published over the weekend de- scribing the evidence that led to Pinto's convic- tion. Those facts had been withheld from the Israeli public by military censorship.

Eitan issued a statement reiterating that he had ac- cepted the court's guilty verdict, but stood by his de- cision to reduce Pinto's sen- tence on grounds that the of- ficer had faced a dangerous situation to which he over- reacted. Avneri has charged that Eitan sought to minimize Pinto's crime although he was aware of the gruesome details. Maariv published a let- ter from a Jerusalem mayor who had defended one of the soldiers on evi- dence .supplied by a fel- low officer who was him- self found guilty of loot- ing and stealing arms during the Lebanese op- eration and was sen- tenced to a year in prison and reduced in rank. The officer was subsequently pardoned by the area commander. But the defense lawyer contended that his tes- timony in the Pinto case was unreliable since the witness' relations with the defendant were unfriendly, the case also has political implications. Gen. (Res) Mattityahu Peleld, a member of Shelli, charged that Chief of Staff Eitan unnecessarily in- jected himself into political issues. He cited Eitan's support for West Bank settlements and his acceptance of the Gush Emunim settlers as part of the regional defense system. Herut MK Itzhak Livni retorted that the at- ALUMINUM SIDING Custom Trim tacks on Eitan began only after he made statements to the .effect that Israel needs the West Bank settlements for security reasons. 545-4110 Try My Prices! ask for PETER 855-1400 What can FENBY - STEIN TALENT AGENCY DO FOR YOU?

OF STATE POLICE UPHOLSTERY Ontario Autopsy Agreement OKd NEW YORK (JTA) — A spokesman for Agudath Is- rael of America has re- ported that its Toronto branch reached an agree- ment to protect the rights of observant Jews in medical- legal autopsies and the routine removal from bodies of the pituitary gland. The agreement was reached at a meeting of four Toronto Orthodox rabbis, with Roy McMurtry, On- tario solicitor general; Member of Parliament David Rotenberg; and Dr. H.B. Cotnam, Ontario chief coroner. The meeting was ar- ranged to discuss the impli- cations of recently passed Ontario legislation calling for removal of the pituitary gland during a coroner's au- topsy, the spokesman said. Rabbi Shlomo Noach Man- del, chairman of the com- mission on legislation and civic action of the Toronto Agudath Israel, who headed the rabbinical delegation, noted that according to Jewish religious law, any alteration in a corpse, such as during an autopsy, or by removal of an organ, is a de- secration of the dead.
