SALISBURY, Rhodesia (AP)
- An upsurge in fighting even
as blacks and whites prepare for
talks on Rhodesia's future has
killed 10 black guerrillas and
10 civilians, the government re-
ported yesterday.
Government security chiefs
also said guerrillas had shot
three black civilians whose bod-
ies were found roped together.
The initial report gave no furth-
er detail and it was unclear im-
mediately whether the victims
were three black nationalists
missing since last week.
THOSE MEN WERE members
of a nationalist faction led by
Bishop Abel Muzorewa and may
have fallen victim to an out-
break of violence between na-
tionalist groups.
The government communique
said guerrillas over the week-
end blew up part of a road

gombe River in the Rhodes-

Robert Mugabe, said Monday
he was pessimistic about the
chances of success for the Brit-
ish-sponsored Geneva confer-
ence, which is scheduled to be-
gin Oct. 21 and is designed to
produce a biracial interim gov-
ernment for Rhodesia.
MUGABE, a factional leader
with close ties to black Rhodes-
ian guerrillas operating from
nearby Mozambique, said Rho-
desian Prime Minister Ian
Smith's insistence on white con-
trol of the army and police in
an interim government means
there is "obviously no starting
point for talks."
Mugabe and Joshua Nkomo,
another factional leader, have
formed a united front and de-
manded a delay in the Geneva
conference and an immediate
transfer to black rule, without
an interim -regime.
There were reports in London
yesterday that Foreign Ministf
Anthony Crosland was consider-
ing postponing the conference.

government here has consistent-
ly rejected the idea of an im-
mediate transfer of power, and

brief speech of the Eastern Eu-

Ford's remark in the debate
with Carter last week that they
were not dominated by the So-
viet Union.
Carter went to a Columbus
Day Mass in Chicago with May-

or Richard Daley and various:
Italian-American political lead-
ers, and was a feature attrac-
tion of the city's Columbus, Day
parade.
Daley gave Carter another
ringing . endorsement, praisingi
him as a president who would1
eliminate . "leadership without
direction" and heard Carter de-.
clare that a joint commitment
by himself 'and Democratic lead-
ers could "restore our people's
confidence in their own goverl-'
ment."
FORD'S ATTACK on Carter
appeared in the San FranciscoE
Examiner, whose editor, Regt
Murphy, interviewed the Presi-
dent in Texas over the week-
end. Ford accused the Demo-
cratic nominee of inpugning his
integrity by raising questions
about his past campaign financ-
es and relationship with lobby-
ists.
Carter has demanded that
Ford hold a formal news con-
ference to answer questions
about a 1973 audit by the In-
ternal Revenue Service which
said that in 1972, Ford used
money from a home town bank
account in Michigan whichcon-
tained some political contribu-
tions to pay for some clothing
and a family ski vacation.
The audit report said Ford
agreed to count the clothing ex-
penditures as personal income
and pay tax on the amount.
The audit indicated Ford reim-
bursed the account for the va-
cation.I
He also said Ford should ex-
plain the IRS finding that he
got along on $5 or less per
week in pocket money during
1972. The IRS accepted Ford's

explanation, which

CARTER, WHILE not accus-
ing Ford of any wrongdoing,
has criticized long-term federal
officials who develop close
friendships with lobbyists, as
Ford acknowledges having dune.
"I personally resent this at-
tack on my integrity," Ford
was quoted as saying in the
interview. "He knows the
charges are not true. They are
pure demagoguery."
In a statement issued yester-
day, Carter also assailed Ford
for trying to take credit dur-
ing the foreign policy debate
for signing a bill that imposed
tax penalties on U.S. firms that
cooperate with an Arab trade
boycott against Israel.
"He fought tooth and nail
against such a bill," said the
Carter statement, which includ-
ed a copy of a letter from
Treasury Secretary William Si-
mon to^Sen. Abraham Ribicoff,
D-Conn., a member of the Sen-
ate Finance Committee, criticiz-
ing such legislation.
"It is time that Mr. Ford
told the American people the
truth - that he has done noth-
ing meaningful to break the
back of the boycott - that he
has opposed every effort to de-
clare the boycott illegal . ."
Carter said.

HOME COOKING IS OUR SPECIALTY

If you are receiving a degree in Mathematics
or Language before September 1977, the
National Security Agency's Professional
Qualification Test (PQT) can be the key to
a rewarding career.
You must register by November 6 in order
to take the PQT on campus-it will not be
given again during the school year. By
scoring well on this test; you will qualify
for an employment interview. During the
interview, an NSA representative will
discuss the role you might play in furthering
this country's communications security
or in producing vital intelligence infor-
mation.

The PQT helps to measure your aptitude
for career areas such as:
LANGUAGES-Foreign languages are
valuable tools for research, analysis, and
documentation projects. Advanced training
in your primary language or perhaps a new
language can be expected.
COMMUNICATIONS-Developing and
testing logical designs for global conmuni-
cations is a unique pursuit. It follows that
your training programs in this area will be
both extensive and esoteric.
PROGRAMMING -Our vast communications
analysis projects could not be effectively,
managed without the latest computer
hardware/software and people who know
how to use them.
PICK UP A PQT BULLETIN at your college
placement office. It contains a registration form
which you must mail prior to November 6
in order to take the test on November 20.
Electronic Engineering, Computer Science,
Slavic, Mid-Eastern and Asian language
majors may interview without taking the
PQT.
Citizenship is required.
