IrOJ OSEE lOWS HAPPENCALL WDWfY As the stomach churns The greatest show on earth mnay soon be the one going on inside your stomach. According to University Prof. of Surgery Thomas Dent the melding of a flexible tube which can see inside body cavities and a miniature TV camera - a video endoscope - allows surgeons to see, before they make an incision, precisely where they may operate in the stomach, duodenum or colon. The process eliminates guesswork, and best of all it's broadcast in living color. The possibilities for exploitation are, of course, endless. Prime time, Cosell narration, Pepto-Bismol spon- sorship, Turns commercials ... and FCC censorship. Just in case your tummy lands on the chopping block and subsequently on national TV, you ought to be prepared. So dress up those gastric ulcers and polish those polyps. You never know when someone, somewhere will walk up to you, shove a camera in your chitterlings and say: 'ive us the inside story."

Robert Bauman (R- Md.) oughta know better, but Bauman claims he still supports the idea of televising House ses- sions. Colleagues of Bauman's, however, are wondering about the congressman's motives after he revealed the conversation he had with he English cab driver. On a recent jaunt to the land of tea and scones, ' Bauman asked the cabbie what he thought of the. British parliament. "I never\ knew what a bunch of bloody baboons ran this country, " the driver answered, "until they put the show on the radio recently." When they finally put your "show" on the tu4e, Bauman, don't forget we told you so. On the outside... What a drag it is getting cold. Today we shouldshave a high of 36 (big deal) which will be enough to melt some of the snow, ruin your shoes, mess up your carpeting... you know the story. By evening, however, the melted snow will be replaced. There'll also be a little freezing rain, and the temperature will drop to-a chilling 300. The rain will continue. Cold will go on.

SALISBURY, Rhodesia (AP) - Rho- desian forces smashed two black na- tionalist bases in Mozambique, killed at least 1,200 guerrillas and destroyed large quantities of war material, the government said yesterday. The most devastating raids Rhodesia has conducted across the border came as Prime Minister, Ian Smith was making plans to meet with moderate black leaders inside the country to dis- cuss eventual majority rule. THE MILITARY command said ground and air forces launched the five- day operation last Wednesday against the guerrillas' main base camp at Chi- moio, 54 miles across the border, and a second camp in Mozambique's north- western province of Tete, 132 miles in- side the Marxist country. One Rhodesian soldier was killed and eight were wounded, the government said. The raids, the fourth operation in- to Mozambique officially acknowledged by Rhodesia, were conducted "in the in- terests of self defense," the military command's communique said. "Large quantities of war material in- cluding weapons, vehicles, am- munition, fuel, buildings and docu- ments were destroyed," it said. INTELLIGENCE sources said both of the camps were strategic bases for guerrillas of Robert Mugabe's Zim- babwe African National Union, largest of the two guerrilla armies fighting to topple Smith's white minority govern- ment. Officials believe Mugabe has about, 9,000 men, more than 3,500 in Rhodesia and the rest in Mozambique. If 1,200 guerrillas were killed in the raid, it would mean he has lost nearly one-fifth of his forces. The second guerrilla army, the Zim- babwe African Peoples' Union headed by Joshua Nkomo, is estimated to have about 3,000 men, several hundred inside Rhodesia and others in neighboring Zambia. MOZAMBIQUE closed its 800-mile border with Rhodesia in March 1976'and since that time hostilities between the countries have increased steadily as Mozambique stepped up its support of the guerrillas. The military command said Rhodesi- an troops had not clashed with Mozam- bique troops. "The aims of these com- bined air and ground actions were suc- cessfully achieved," the military said. In the first raid against Mozambique in August 1976, Rhodesian. troops de- stroyed what they called a terrorist camp 25 miles inside Mozambique, kill- ing 340 persons, including 300 guerril- las. Mozambique claimed it was a refu- gee camp and said up to 1,000 persons were killed. In other raids in October 1976 and again early this year, few guerrilla casualties were reported but troops. brought back truckloadsof arms and ammunition and said they destroyed tons of other equipment before with- drawing. ,.
