The paper ran a lucky number contest recently, and the reader with the number 69161 on his or her paper was entitled to $250 cash. But when the paper hit the stands, every paper-all 39,000 copies-had, you guessed it, num- ber 69161. Sure enough, traffic quickly backed up nearly a half-mile from the newspaper's office, and phone lines were jammed as thousands of lucky winners tried to claim their prize. The money was finally awarded to the first caller. A Shopper's News vice-president blamed the mishap on a stamping machine malfunction.

MOSCOW (AP)-Soviet scientists say they have gathered evidence poin- ting to the existence in Siberia of a dark, shaggy-haired, shrill-voiced wild man in some ways resembling the legendary Snow Man of the Himalayas. The Soviet news agency Tass said specialists at the Institute of Language, Literature and History in Soviet Yakuti have been evaluating testimony *of Siberians who claim they encountered the manlike creature called "Chuchunaa." THE NAME MEANS "fugitive" or "outcast" in one of the dialects of Yakutia, a vast expanse of forest, mountains and frozen tundra in north- eastern Siberia. "The famous Himalayan Snow Man, Yeti, whom many explorers believe exists, might prove to have a Yakutian relative," wrote Tass correspondent Sergi Bulantsev on the institute's fin- dings. The Himalayan Snow Man is also known as the Abominable Snow Man. Large tracks in the snow are ascribed to such a creature. Some scientists believe that, if he exists, he may be a form of unclassified ape. IN THE AMERICAN northwest, there also have been reports of a huge creature known as a Sasquatch, or "Big Foot", which has been described by various people who claim to have seen it as looking like a bear or ape. The Tass story said "there is a lot of testimony of witnesses who ran into the wild man" in Yakutia's Verkhoyansk region, about 400 miles north of the city of Yakutsk. "The old-timers of highland villages of the Verkhoyansk region warn guests who come from afar: 'Don't go alone in the darkness. Be careful in the moun- tains. Don't go to the river-Chuchunaa might appear,' " the account said. ACCORDING TO the witnesses, Tass said, "Chuchunaa" was described as tall and thin, standing about 6 feet 6 in- ches, with long arms hanging below his knees. "He feeds on raw meat and wears a reindeer skin," the story said. "He cannot speak, but only utters shrill screams." The creature was in the habit of sneaking up to people's dwellings and stealing food, Tass said. Upon seeing a hunter or a reindeer breeder, he would run away in most instances, but sometimes would start fighting. "REINDEER BREEDERS, hunters, mushroom and berry collectors ran into him most frequently at dawn or late in the evening," the account noted. WASHINGTON (AP) -J The chair- man of the Senate Energy Committee, Sen. Henry Jackson, circulated a pro- posal yesterday calling for natural gas deregulation by 1985 as part of a new ef- fort to put President Carter's derailed energy program back on the congres- sional track. Jackson met yesterday with Energy Secretary James Schlesinger to outline the new proposal, which according to a staff analysis would cost consumers about $9 billion more through 1985 than Carter's own proposal for continued price controls. A JACKSON AIDE, Betsy Moler, said Schlesinger did not indicate whether the administration could support the senator's proposal but that Jackson was hopeful of winning White House support. The measure would immediately boost the price ceiling for "new" gas, produced from wells drilled after 1974 from the current $1.47 to $1.84 per'1,000 cubic feet, compared to Carter's pro- posal for a new $1.75 price ceiling. And under the proposal, prices could rise by 3 percent a year beyond the national in- flation rate, until the controls were lif- ted. THE PROPOSAL also would give the president the power to reimpose the controls if price increases to consumers got out of hand. It would also extend price controls during the interim period to now-unregulated intrastate gas, which is used in states where it is pro- duced, such as Texas and Louisiana. And the president would have the authority to order gas moved from the intrastate market to cold-weather states to meet emergencies like last winter's prolonged cold spell. Jackson, whom the Carter admini- stration has called upon to break the months-long stalemate, was trying to drum up the nine votes needed to end the logjam so he could present the proposal as a formal compromise early next week. THERE WAS NO immediate indica- tion, however, that the Washington Democrat had-yet mustered the needed support, although he was believed to be within a vote or two of that goal. Sources close to the ongoing Senate energy negotiations said that if this pro- posal doesn't pass there's a good chan- ce nothing will. Differences among the 17 Senate negotiators remain so wide "I still think it's possible we may not get a bill," said Energy Committee Chief Counsel Mike Harvey, who drafted the proposed com- promise at Jackson's behest. CARTER'S ENTIRE energy program has been stalled because of an inability of senators on the House-Sen- ate energy conference committee to settle their own differences on. deregu- lation of natural gas. The energy bill approved by the Senate would deregulate newly pro- duced gas after two years, but critics claimed the Senate bill would cost con- sumers $70 billion more in gas bills through 1985 above the some $20 billion the administration measure would cost. The Jackson proposal was described in an accompanying memorandum as a "bottom-line position," indicating that is as far as Jackson is willing to go to appease forces favoring deregulation. Other details provided by witnesses described "Chuchunaa" as barefooted, shaggy-haired, "with a face as big as that of a human being, only very dark. His small forehead protruded above the eyes, like a peaked cap," Tass said. It added that "he ran away from people very quickly, leaping." TASS QUOTED a senior staff mem- ber of the Yakutia institute, Semyon Nikolayev, as saying: "Almost all wit- nesses speak about Chuchunaa as a reality, without the fantastic details so usual for legends." The scientist offered this hypothesis as a possible explanation for the creature's existence: "AT SOME PERIOD, when on Yakutia's territory some groups of the ancient population were ousted by others, part of the aborgines left for areas with different access from the. outside. A suitable place for them, in this case, would have been the upper reaches of the Yana and Indigirka rivers and their tributaries." Gas deregulation plan proposed t:r'i 1-ti i.. " Auto accident An 18-year-old University student was struck by a car and taken to University Hospital Thurs. night. Police said Ethan Schwartz was walking down E. University when he was hit by a car driven by 43- year-old Charles Rawlings. According to police, Rawlings said he hit Schwartz because he swerved to avoid hitting an oncoming car. But witnesses at the scene said they saw no other car. Schwartz was taken by ambulance to University hospital and released yesterday morning. On the outside... Oh, well. Today will clearly be unclear because of increasingly cloudy skies during the day and a chance of light snow in the afternoon. High today will be 26, with a low of 16. More light snow and more cloudy skies tonight. Expect snow to pile up to about 2 inches. Sunday will be as unclear as today, but at least the snow will end, and we'll have a high of 20 and low of 9. Viet ambassador expelledbyU.So n~mn n rn1ucr n it [*rkn n o Daily Official Bulletin WASHINGTON (UPI) - The United States yesterday took the unprecented step of expelling the Vietnamese am- bassador to the United Nations, in the wake of accusations he had been part of a spy ring. "The State department today official- ly requested the Socialist Republic of Vietnam's permanent representative to the United Nations, Dinh Ba Thi, to leave the United States," said depart- ment spokesman John Trattner. "THIS ACTION is taken pursuant to the United Nations headquarters agree- ment under which the United States re- taing the right to request the departure of members of foreign missions who, have abused the privilege of their resi- dence." Although U.N. diplomats have been expelled for spying, this is the first time that an ambassador who is head of a mission has been ordered to leave.
