The systegn, called Hardsite Defense, is built around use of1 modified Sprint interceptor missiles and smaller and less expensive radars then currently used in Safeguard.

THE RAILWAY CLERKS UNION yesterday threatened to renew a nationwide rail shutdown March 1 at the expiration of} an emergency 80 day postponement ordered by Congress. A walkout by the 200,000 ticket sellers and clerical workers would mean a total shutdown of the nation's railroads if other unions honor the clerks' picket lines, as they did during a 24 hour, four union strike last December. Union President C. L. Dennis threatened the service accusing the rail industry of backing off from previous offers on wages and job security and of failing to pay about half its men back pay owed under the 13.5 per cent retroactive pay increase Congress ordered in delay- ing the December strike. U.S. MARINES yesterday clashed with demonstrators who were protesting U.S. Navy target practice on Culbra, an island off Puerto Rico. A chapel built by protesters on a beach used by the Navy for gunnery practice was dismantled by the Marines on Navy orders. About 15 minutes later a group of about 30 demonstrators entered the area in protest. The clash followed. The Marines used tear gas and the demonstrators used Molotov cocktails, according to the Navy. -Associated Press APOLLO 14 astronauts (left to right) Alan Shepard, Stuart Roosa, and Edgar Mitchell ester their egress raft yesterday, wearing decontamination masks after the module splashed down.

Israel rejects Sadat's plan By The Associated Press Premier Golda Meir responded yesterday to Egypt's call for a par- tial withdrawal of Israeli troops from the Suez Canal area with a+ counterproposal that b o t h sides reduce their armed strength along! the waterway.1 The Israeli leader a 1 s o urged talks with Egypt aimed at reop- ening the canal, blocked by ves- sels sunk in the 1967 war, but saida Israel was not willing to tie such! a move to an Israeli troop pull- + back in the area. Any Israeli withdrawal from; the e a s t ban of the waterway would be incumbent on peace1 with Egypt, Meir said. An Egyptian spokesman called the Israeli proposal "a maneu- ver aimed at escaping the blame of world public opinion."I Meir expressed belief that Sa-l dat's offer was aimed at "achiev-o ing a strategic advantage o v e r Israeli forces without substantial progress toward peace." She 'said his proposal "simply isn't clear" and needs considerable clarification. -1 An Egyptian spokesman said any+ Israeli requests for clarification would be regarded by Cairo as as delaying tactic. Meir suggested "face to face: contacts" to clarify the proposal.1 Egypt has always refused to enter direct negotiations with Israel. Apollo returns safely SPACE CENTER, Houston (A - The Apollo 14 astronauts, returning from the moon with 95 lbs. of rock, were on target yesterday as they safely splashed down at 4:50 p.m. EST in the South Pacific. Astronauts Alan Shepard Jr. Stu- art Roosa and Edgar Mitchell re- turned to earth with scientists al- ready hailing their nine-day, 1.15 million mile lunar voyage as the most successful of man's three moon landings. As the command module slam- med into the outer limits of the atmosphere at 76 miles altitude the speed was quickly braked by the thickening atmosphere. Forces six times the pull of gravity pressed against the pilots. During the hottest part of re- entry ionized gases enveloped the plummeting spacecraft and block- ed radio communications for about three minutes. At 10,000 feet, three main chutes unfurled and Apollo 14 floated gently downward into the Pacific at 22 m.p.h. As the module Kitty Hawk descended there appeared to be smoke pouring from it. Mission Control explained the astronauts merely were dumping excess fuel. The final hours of the $400,000 mission were uneventful and quiet as the astronauts busied them- selves with stowage and systems checks. Helicopters were overhead with- in minutes and dropped swimmers to secure the bobbing craft. One of the copters retrieved the as- tronauts and deposited them on the deck of the carrier USS New Orleans. During the 332 hours on the moon, Shepard and Mitchell prowled the barren, dusty terrain for more than nine hours on two outside excursions. They set up a scientific monitoring station and collected a record 95 pounds of rocks and lunar soil, some of which may date back 4.6 billion years to the birth of the moon. The astronauts face 18 days of isolation on earth to protect earth creatures from any germs t h e y may have contracted while on the moon. No such germs were found during the moon landings of Apollo 11 and Apollo 12, but scien- tists fear the moon highlands where Apollo 14 landed may har- bor bacteria not found in the flat lunar plains where the other two landings were made. The rocks will also go into quarantine at the Space Center. Bits of the material will be ex- posed to mice, cockroaches, shrimp and other animals to determine if it has any dangerous effect on earth creatures. The astronauts will be released from quarantine on Feb. 26. Samp- les of the lunar material will later be released to selected scientists all over the world. President Nixon welcomed the astronauts back yesterday. "To each and every one of the many people who contributed to the success of Apollo 14," Nixon declared, "a grateful nation says: well done." top your separates with polka dots . . today's fashion favorite for your separates wardrobe It can be now, with the former QUEEN ELIZABETH providing more accommodations and lower rates The unforgettable. enormously enriching experience of a semester at sea is now within the range of most college students.
