Navy Rescues Yacht Adrift Under Fire Near Lebanon TEL AVIV — A disabled Israeli yacht with 11 passengers aboard was re- scued by a navy patrol boat as it wallowed in heavy seas several hundred yards off the Lebanese coast under fire from terrorist shore bat- teries last week. The Marina, a sailing vessel with auxiliary engine, left Kishon anchor- age on Haifa Bay early last Monday on a pleasure trip to Larnaca, Cyprus. Her skipper, Israel Lauber, and his passengers, who in- cluded three women, are all amateur sailors. A clogged fuel line caused the engine to fail when the craft was two hours out to sea. Sails were raised but a gale developed and the yacht made for land in the vicinity of Rosh Hanikra on the Israeli-Lebanese bor- der. A sudden shift in the i wind caused her to drift [ N---- northward in the direction of the terrorist stronghold - — at Tyre. Lauber called the Haifa maritime station by radio telephone for assistance. The navy was informed and a patrol boat of the Daboor class rushed to the scene. When it ar- rived, the Marina was drifting helplessly about [ 400 yards off shore and under fire. The naval craft opened fire with its own gun while attempts were made to get a tow line aboard the yacht. The Marina was pulled out of danger and the two was later transferred to a tug sent north from Haifa. India Recognizes PLO Terrorists LONDON (JTA) — The government of India last week became the first gov- ernment to extend full dip- lomatic recognition to the Palestine Liberation Organization. PLO chief Yasir Arafat was in New Delhi for a two-day visit at the invita- tion of Prime Minister In- dira Ghandi. At the same time, the Ita- lian government has made several statements in sup- port of "a solution of the Palestinian problem." Although the statement reaffirmed Israel's rights to secure borders, it also spoke of Italy's recognition of the PLO as the representative of the Palestinian people. In Vienna, Arafat was quoted in a newspaper interview as saying that he has no intention of destroy- ing anything, presumably including Israel. But the PLO's No. 2 man, Salai Khalaf, speaking in Abu Dhabi, called for a military alliance of the Arab states and Palestinians to confront Israel.
