T h e agencies conditionally funded by the Council last night at the recommendations of the Community Development staff include, Public Housing Tenants Organization, Washtenaw County Legal Aid, Washtenaw County Camp Placement, Ann Arbor Community Center, Arrowwood H u m a n Services, Washtenaw County Council on Aging, Ann Arbor Community Health Cen- ter, Ann Arbor Visiting Nurse Association, Student-Parent Cen- ter, Bryant Steering Committee, National Organization of Wo- wen's Committee on Domestic Violence, Octagon House, Salva- tion Army and the Chapin Com- munity Action Center. AS A PART of the pre-certifi- cation process the public service organizations submitted a resume of how they wojpld use CDBG funds, the agencies' goals, objectives, and links to the CDBG target area, a state- ment on the co-ordination of services at the community level, a statement on the agencies' affirmative action policies, a staffing chart, and the agencies' budgets. The CDBG target area is the portion of the city very roughly bounded by Stadium on the south, State Street on the east, Fuller and Sunset on the north, and Seventh on the west. There are exceptions to this roughly sketched target area. The excep- tions were made to include out- lying "pockets of poverty" and public housing areas. Noting the decline in the total CDBG appropriation for the city. from $2.38 million for this year to $1,9 million next year, Mayor Albert Wheeler asked the mem- bers of City Council to "down- play certain personal objectives in light of some larger objec- tives, that is we're losing CDBG money. By the sixth year of the program (1979-80) we'll be down to $1.3 million." " Wheeler also said the city was pursuing a number of other pos- sible sources of revenue from the federal government. It is ex- pected that within two weeks a special assistant will be appoint- ed to the city administrator, for the sole purpose of seeking out federal funds." NAPANOCH, N.Y. (A'} - More than 100 inmates took seven hostages yesterday in the mess area of a medium-security state prison, following a disturbance apparently involving food, authori- ties said. No serious injuries were reported at the Eastern Correctional Facility in the Catskill~Mountains, and authorities believed the inmates were not armed with guns or knives. ONE GUARD reportedly was released by the inmates after suffering minor injuries. A specially trained Corrections Emergency Response Team, formed after the bloody 1971 uprising at Attica state prison, re- captured a prison hospital here that had also been held by inmates. In Rochester, Gov. Hugh Carey said the mess hall would be retaken "without bloodshed.' STATE OFFICIALS said they could not say for sure who the other hostages were. A spokesman said earlier reports that there were 17 hostages had been discounted. Prison Supt. Jack Czarnetsky said the trouble began shortly before 9 a.m. when an inmate was overpowered by a guard in the mess area. Details were not available,abut initial reports said the inmates had been upset with the way brealtfast was prepared, The inmates initially took over the prison hospital section as weBl, but the emergency team was able ,to recapture the hospital. RUBY RYLES a corrections spokeswoman, said she was not sure how the emergency team had recaptured the hospital, but that no shots were fired and no gas was used. The emergency team, one of several created afterthe uprising at Attica, is made up of volunteers from various facilities who are called-in for disturbances, fires and natural disasters. AS NEGOTIATIONS proceeded, a half dozen rescue squads gathered outside the prison in humid, overcast weather. Occa- atonally, state police helicopters flew over the castle-like facility, about 70 miles north of New York City. The prison holds 680 inmates and has a capacity of 711. }, This is something we are ready for in our prisons because they are overcrowded and taking in 180 to 220 persons a month," Carey said at a briefing in Rochester. "We will enforce the laws in this state. Prisoners inside prisons will not be allowed to harm persons, especially correction officers."

SEKABIRA SAID that one morning he and nine others were placed on a special de- tail by military policemen to bury the mutilated, bullet-rid- died bodies of about a dozen men in uniforms of air force officers. He said some had their hands amputated and three were still alive. "One of the three asked for water, and instead was given a bayonet in the chest inofin- ish him off," he said. Police supervising the burial said the victims were thieves. TWO DAYS later another truck-load of mangled corpses arrived. A prisoner who had been held since 1970 claimed that one of those buried in the mass grave was a former prime, minister and chief jus- tice, Ben Kiwanuka, who dis- appeared after Amin seized power in the 1971 coup.

On July 20, almost three weeks after the Israeli rescue mission, pri- soners watched as the bodies of the elderly white woman and a police officer were buried. Last March, Sekabira said he and about 20 other prisoners were taken by motorboat to Parsland, a onetime tourist re- sort on Lake Victoria. There, he said, they were ordered out of their prison garb and into ar- my uniforms. ON MARCH 26, boatloads of regular soldiers and officers arrived with drinks, fond -and a band, saying that there would be a party hosted by Amin. Then an army colonel and a major catted the troops togeth- er and read off a list of names of those said to have been plot- ting again Amin. The men whose names were read were marched off and shot. Sekabira and his fellow prisoners helped bury them. Soon after, Amin arrived on the island and inspected the graves end then led the singing and dancing, Sekabira said. SEKABIRA CLAIMED he was then approached by Amin and asked why he.had been impri- soned. He explained what hap- pened, and said that Amin of- fered to give him his freedom if he made no mention of his two fellow students or the shooting of soldiers on the is- land. Sekabira said he agreed and on June 13, still camped on the island, was told he was taken by boat back to Kampala, giv- en his clothes, a prisoner's re- lease f rm and 48 shillings (about ) as "saving on dis- charge." Sekabira reported to the Uni- versity of Mekerere, where he had studied for 2 years be- fore, but was denied readmis- sion. He finally decided to flee Uganda.
