By AP and Reuter
BEIRUT, Lebanon - Moslem
leftists repulsed Lebanese army
commandos trying to take over
Beirut's hotel district yesterday.
The Moslems capturedrthree
armored personnel carirers and
used them in attacks on Chris-
tian strongholds.
At least 34 bodies were re-
covered yesterday, raising the
toll of known dead since the
start of the week to 287.
HOUSE - TO - HOUSE fighting
raged into the night. Massive
explosions rocked this Arab
capital as Premier Rashid Ka-
rami announced another cease-
fire-the 14th in Lebanon's eight-
month civil war.
The announcement created a
split among Moslem forces ar-
rayed against Lebanon's Chris-
tian minority. Palestinian guer-
rillas said they would abide by
the cease-fire while Lebanese
Moslem leftists rejected it.
Rocket and mortar fire again
hampered ambulances trying to
bring out casualties. They re-
covered, in addition to the
bodies, 80 wounded.
THE DEAD included two army
commandos killed in the hotel
district, a Greek Orthodox priest
shot by snipers near parliament

and a Maronite nun shot three
times ir the' chest at the Saint
Elie hospital.
Christian - Moslem clashes in
Zahle, 35 miles east of Beirut,
claimed another 11 dead and 17
wounded.
The plush St. Georges Hotel
was gutted by fire started by
rocket - propelled grenades and
incendiary bullets. By nightfall,
the 25-story Holiday Inn was
ablaze for the second time since
the highrise war began-along
with two smaller hotels, a syna-
gogue in the Jewish quarter, a
movie theater and office com-
plex and several gas stations.
FIVE MORTAR rounds hit the
government house, cracking the
walls of Karami's office.
All previous ceasefires
achieved during the running
battle between left and right-
wing forces have collapsed into
further bloodshed.
Karami said this latest agree-
ment was reached at a meeting
of the Higher Coordination Com-
mittee, which includes repre-
sentatives of the security forces
and the different factions.
T H E PREMIER, doggedly
persistent in the search for an
end to Lebanon's troubles, said

"all sides" had agreed that se-
curity forces should be posted
in strategic positions.
But he did not explain how
this had been agreed when the
three major leftist factions now
involved in the fight were ab-
sent: the Progressive Socialists,
the Independent Nasserites and
the Communists.
A Phalangist spokesman ex-
pressed doubt the PLO stand
would halt Moslem assaults on
Christian positions. "First the
a r m y and internal security
forces must move in and drive
them out of downtown Beirut,"
he said.
MOSLEM militiamen captured
two armored personnel carriers
from army commendos near the
Phoenicia hotel. They seized a
third after Karami's cease-fire
announcement as the carrier
drove through the seaside resi-
dential area of Ein Mreisseh,F
near the U.S. embassy.
Army troops gave up trying
to dislodge Moslems occupying
the St. Georges Hotel and pulled
out of the Holiday Inn, which
Christian Phalangist forces said
they then occupied.
Part of the 850-man govern-
ment commando force remained
inside the Phoenicia Intercon-
tiental after the army's first ma-
jor intervention of the war. But
the rest of the troops moved to
the Starco office center where
right-wing militiamen of the
Christian Phalange party were
under heavy attack from left-
wing Moslems of the "Ambush-
ers" militia.

information back to the com- IN RELATED actions yester-
mittee. day:

The compromise ended the
third and possibly last fight be-
tween the committee and Ford
and his aides.
Last September Ford cut off
all secret information to the
committee after it publicly dis-
closed four words showing that'
U.S. intelligence had monitored
Egyptian communications just
before the 1973 Mideast war.
FORD AND the committee
later worked out a compromise
under which it agreed not to
vote to make such information
public without advance notice-
and not to make it public with-
out going to court if Ford de-
clared its secrecy vital.
The committee had voted 10
to 2 to subpoena Kissinger to
turn over the State Department
requests for covert operations.
But Pike conceded the commit-
tee was ready to overrule him
if he pressed the contempt vote
for Kissinger's refusal to fully
comply.
The chairman blamed the
shift in the committee's position
on "intensive lobbying" which
he said came from both White

-Pike criticized the adminis-
tration's refusal to disclose
America's help to anti-Commu-
nist factions in Angola as "a
travesty on our Constitution."
At a public affairs forum, Pike
said, "Here we are involved, not
in intelligence gathering, but
even in the assassination of
somebody."
-The House panel was told
by McGeorge Bundy that CIA
assassination plots were not
authorized by the White House.
Bundy, who served under two
Democratic presidents, s a i d,
however, that the White House
was "not aware of everything
done by the CIA."

Studying for finals:

sometimes - not from the
Public Health standpoint," says
Dr. John Ogden of Health Ser-
vices East Clinic.
"WE SEE people who have
viruses. Often, it's because
they're keeping very irregular
hours. That makes people less
resistant," Ogden adds.
Some students float through
exams with a "pass now - die
later" approach. They "wait
until the last minute, stay up all
night, take the exams and then
collapse in front of the door in
little puddles," says Davol.
The secretaries who process
incoming patients s u f f e r
through finals, too. Secretary
Paulina Mears complains,
"Students are a lot more irrit-
able, and they seem to get up-

set faster."
ANOTHER, WHO declined to
give her name, says, "A lot of
times, kids want to get notes
to excuse themselves from ex-
ams. Some are really dumb,
like this one yesterday who
slept through his final. That fel-
low was out of luck."
HOWEVER, nurse Vivian
Ardnt says that most patients
requesting medical excuses
have valid reasons. But "they
want immediate attention and
immediate antibiotics," she
adds.
"More people complain of
anxiety, but they recognize
their own anxiety. With the diz-
ziness that goes along with flu,
they're just not able to concen-
trate," Ardnt concludes.

Senate votes to
extend tax breaks



THE YEAR

OF THE ALL-AMERICAN

(Continued from Page t)
recession reductions voted by
Congress last spring. But the'
new bill increases standard
deductions, for those who do
not itemize, and increases the
existing $30 credit for every
taxpayer and each dependent
to $45.
SINCE~THE bill covers only
six months, expiring July 1, the
value of the tax reductions
would be cut by one-half unless
Congress later extends the cuts.
However, because the new
cuts would expire in the middle
of an election year, Congress is
likely to extend them for an-
other six months.
The Senate bill would reduce

taxes in the first six months of
1975 by $6.24 billion, compared
with $6.47 billion voted by the
House. Of the Senate amount,
all but $590 million, represent-
ing a cut for small business,
would go to individuals.
CONGRESSI.O N A L
tax experts say that a family
of four with $15,000 income
would expect to pay $1,101 in
taxes if the Senate bill is passed
and then extended for the re-
mainder of 1976. That would be
$270 less than if the current,
temporary reductions expired.
A single person making $15,-
000 would save $45; a married
couple with no dependents at
that income level would save
$90.
The most significant differ-
ence between the Senate and
House bills is an extension of
the "work bonus" for poor
working families with children
included in the Senate version.
Under this provision, a work-
ing family with children is al-
lowed to escape taxation on 10
per cent of its earned income
up to $4,000, and lesser amounts
on income between $4,000 and
$8,000.
OTHER features of the Sen-
ate bill:
" Increases the minimum
standard deduction to $1,800 for
single persons and $2,200 for
joint returns, from the current
$$1,600 and $1,900 respectively;
" Increase the $30-per-person
tax credit to $45; and
*rExtends for six months the
corporate tax-rate changes vot-
ed earlier this year.

A phone call. A simple,
ten-cent phone call for a cab
could save your friend's life. 4
If your friend has been
drinking too much, he shouldn't
be driving.
The automobile crash is
the number one cause of death
of people your age. And the
ironic thing is that the drunk
drivers responsible for killing
young people are most often
other young people.
Take a minute. Spend a
dime. Call a cab. That's all. If
you can't do that, drive him
yourself. Or let him sleep on
your couch.
We're not asking you to
be a doctor or a cop.Just a friend.

HEALING
Restoring health, wholeness, harmony, justice
In our culture, healing of mind, body, spirit and community are most
often considered separately, for instance, through psychology, medi-
cine, religion, and politics. Are there principles, processes, images,
forms on which seemingly diverse kinds of healing are based?
