The Michigan Daily-Thursday, September 24 1981--PageZ I U.S., Soviets agree to arms talks UNITED NATIONS (UPI) - Secretary of State Alexander Haig and Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko apparently reached agreement yesterday on beginning a new set of arms talks on nuclear missiles stationed in Europe. But the 4-hour negotiating session produced deep disagreements on other issues. The meeing between the two officials represented the highest contact yet between Moscow and Washington since President Reagan took office. U.S. AND SOVIET officials said afterwards that a joint simultaneous statement will be issued today in. Moscow and New York dealing with arms control, and in particular the talks on long-range theater nuclear forces (TNF) stationed in Europe. The statement apparently will announce a date for a new set of talks on limiting the missiles in Europe, a major demand of America's NATO allies. The meeting between Haig and Gromkyo, who were alone for 2 hours and 50 minutes, was described by Haig's spokesman, Dean Fischer as "frank and businesslike" and covering a wide range of inter- national issues. "FRANK AND businesslike" is normally used as a diplomatic code word for discussions that included disagreements and which were not particularly friendly in tone. the agreement to make no statement immediately after the meeting but to issue a joint statement later is the routine generally followed in a situation where agreement on details has been reached and has to be given final clearance by the governments involved. Fischer said that the talks also dealt with a broad range of topics dealing with U.S.-Soviet relations. FISCHER ALSO said Gromyko agreed to meet Haig again Monday in New York, a session that already had been tentatively scheduled. Gromyko waved to reporters after the meeting in the U.S. mission to the United Nations, saying only, "No statement today. Maybe a statement tomorrow." Haig did not talk to reporters but issued his announ- cement about the Thursday statement through, his spokesman. It was the first high-level diplomatic contact bet- ween the Soviet Union and the Reagan ad- ministration and had been preceeded on Tuesday by a harsh and strident speech by Gromyko in the United Nations, where he accused the United States of a long series of crimes, including reneging on the SALT II treaty which was signed, but never ratified by thex United States. Controversial dig finds King David's city JERUSALEM (AP)- Undeterred by riots, legal battles and international protests, archaeologists excavating the Jerusalem of King David have revealed a city of great wealth alongside great poverty. Workers found erotic figurines from the early Israelite period showing that idolatry was common even after David brought monotheism to the hilltop city he made his capital. ARCHAEOLOGISTS believe Jerusalem has been inhabited for 5,000 years. The latest 12-week season un- covered a wall showing the contours of the city in the 18th century B.C., when the Bible says Abraham was sum- moned to the Promised Land from Ur, in present-day Iraq. The dig has added little to the knowledge of ancient Jerusalem, already well-documented in texts. But it "is bringing Jerusalem to life," ex- cavation director Yigal Shiloh said during a tour of the site yesterday, when digging ended for another year. The dig is south of the hilltop where Solomon built the great Jewish temple. A few hundred yards away, some of the great events in Jesus's life took place. ULTRA-ORTHODOX Jews claim Shiloh's crew is digging in a medieval Jewish cemetery, and they rioted several times over the summer in defense of the dead. The controversy led the government to halt the dig but it was overruled by the Supreme Court and the excavations continued. The supreme Rabbinical Council decided yesterday to press Parliament to enact a coalition agreement that would give the council power to halt ar- chaeological excavations. On Tuesday, the executive council of the U.N. Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization condemned digs such as Shiloh's as "a grave danger" to Jerusalem. BUT SHILOH said he would conduct the fifth and final season next summer "in the regular way." "We are trying to draw an ar- chaeological picture of the life and culture of Jerusalem from its capture to its destruction in 586 B.C. by the Babylonians," said Donald T. Ariel, one of Shiloh's assistants. Jerusalem was a Canaanite city of 3,000 people covering a 20-acre hillside when David conquered it in 996 B.C. and built his palace on the hill. DAVID AND.Solomon expanded the city with public buildings, constructing an acropolis resembling the downtown of a modern city. Close to the palace area, ar- chaeologists discovered roomy, well- constructed homes with nearby toilets. Houses lower down the slope were smaller, their stones slapped together with mud. "These were the slums of Jerusalem," said Shiloh. Among the pottery finds was a shard inscribed in characters used in southern Arabia, documenting an early link with the land of the Queen of Sheba. DAVID'S CITY today is a sparsely populated hill in the shadow of the 400- year-old Turkish walls of the Old City in the Arab sector which Israel captured from Jordan in 1967. About four acres in six sections were made available for excavations. Continuing research on the city's 12( year-old water system, the team con cluded from geological surveys that 50-foot vertical shaft linking the city t .an underground spring was not mar made, as originally thought. Ariel said the revised view Warren's Shaft, named after ii discoverer, may be the most importa find of the dig since the sinkhole coun be the natural prototype of a we system later imitated by man.

(AP) - Workers were inspec- ting up to 200 loosened thermal tiles on the space shuttle Columbia yesterday assessing damage from a propellant spill to determine how long the spacecraft's second mission must be delayed.. More than 200 of the spacecraft's 31,000 heat-resistant tiles were affected by Tuesday's spill, officials of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration said. THE SPILL HAS delayed the shuttles's second mission at least a week and possibly two beyond the scheduled Oct. 9 date, NASA officials have said. But if damage is found inside the craft and the shuttle has to be removed from the launch- pad, postponement could be "in excess of a month," said shuttle operations director George Page. The adhesive that holds the' silica-and-fiber tiles to the spacecraft's aluminum skin was destroyed by the propellant, the caustic oxidizer nitrogen tetroxide. Page said the tiles themselves, which measure about 6 inches square, were not damaged. the spill took place at a servicing panel during a fueling operation of the reactor-control system, a group of thrusters which control the spacecraft's pitch and roll during orbit and re-entry. THE TILES PROTECT the shuttle against the high tem- peratures of re-entry into the atmosphere. They are in- dividually sized, fitted and bonded onto 75 percent of the or- biter's external surface. Theaccident was caused by a faulty valve or a seal on the ground fueling system leading to the servicing panel, said Mark Hess, a spokesman for the space center. Hess said engineers would try to do all necessary repairs at the launch pad. Page had indicated Tuesday that if damage was found within the spacecraft, the whole shuttle system would have to be removed from the pad and disassembled. Repair work on the orbiter would then be carried out at its hangar, Page said. postponed *for rep airs .. ...... ... .. v."ns ."r ".v::. -.wn::...vK":"}: N:::: nz ::": :v:..,: .......}:"iji}ii}.'{'i :? ::4:"istiS"::"X ::: i'r:i->:{:?:":"Y:j"L;:}:;:j;i:%::":Y:"$Y:'Y:Y .......................... .................................................................................... ... .. ................... w ...:. . ...{...'.$..rt .. v .. ......... . ....... ... v............,...v. h....................................; ..........:.......... --...:....................... ....................... :4::^: }:::: :w :::."::::::::::::::::. i;< ter: Our men rival theirs in looks (Continued from Page 1) the street. Winston, who appears in gym shorts, said his enthusiasm for the project has waned. "I WAS EXCITED. Now I'm kind of ambivalent. I had sort of forgotten about it and then I remembered 'My God! It's coming out! "Winston said. Winston thought the calendar might be considered "mild exploitation, but nothing I'd get excited about." Ralph Everson, a senior in the medical school, expressed another common emotion of the models-disbelief. When approached in a bar by Ander- son, Everson said, he first thought the whole thing was a "hoax." "THEN SHE GAVE me her business card and I decided the whole thing was on the level," he said. Everson said he "can't wait to see" the calendar, and regrets that he will be out of town on the day of its publication.

"I'll probably be razzed to death. I'll probably be a summer mon- th, and my friends are already calling me 'Mr. August,' " he said. Goodsir, describing his reaction as "embarrassed but flattered," said he was discovered at Dooley's when the bar manager pointed him out to Ander- son. Although the students receive no fee for the calendar, Anderson said, the publicity may lead to lucrative future promotional jobs for the students.
