(AP) Spaceship Columbia crowned a busy, bittersweet mission yesterday, bursting like a like a silver wraith through mottled California skies to its second flawless desert landing. With Joe Engle in command and Richard Truly beside him, the winged shuttle hit Earth right on time, right on target: the oil-black centerline on wide- open Rogers Dry Lake in California's Mojave Desert. "TOUCHDOWN..Welcome home," said Mission Control. For Engle and Truly it was a perfect ending for a troubled msision, halted three days early only because an elec- - trical generator broke down. Crowds, estimated at 220,000 people, cheered "Go" asColumbia passed overhead on its-final approach to runway 23. The astronauts headed quickly for home in Houston while technicians swarmed over the first ship to go into space twice. After two hours, Columbia was towed to its hangar, accompanied by a convoy of service trucks. "THE BIRD is real solid," said Engle as the 106-ton ship emerged from a 17-minute blackout and speeded across the Pacific at five times the speed of sound. "It's a great day for the Ace Moving Co.," shuttle communicator Rick Hauck said from Missin Control, Houston. When the shuttle becomes operational after two more test flights, it will be a delivery van, hauling up satellites, scientific cargo and secret defenseprojects. "It's a great day for the United States and the space program," said James Beggs, head ' of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. Mideast expert says Israel fears Saudis may be new U.S. ally. By SEAN ROSS Israel's main fear in the recent sale of sophisticated AWACS radar planes" to Saudi Arabia is not so much of a poten- tial attack from the Saudis but more a fear of being replaced as the chief U.S. ally in the Middle East, according to Max Holland, a Middle East affairs specialist.I Some opponents of the AWACS sale had contended that Saudi Arabia might use the planes in an invasion of Israel or that the equipment might fall into the, wrong hands were there to be a revolution or coup in the country. Speaking Friday night at a two-day conference on the Middle East however, Holland said that Israelis are more concerned that the sale may be part of a grand U.S. strategy to even- tually build American military bases in Saudi Arabia, making the oil-rich nation the new primary U.S. ally in the region. "THE REAGAN administration has made clear its determination to make Saudi Arabia the bastin of U.S. in- terests ip the Middle East," Holland said. "This is what scared the Israelis so much.' Israel is afraid that Saudi Arabia will become our most favored partner." 'Holland traced the rift back to the OPEC oil embargo of 1973 when the United States, he said, began to feel torn between its traditional support of Israel and its increasing reliance on Saudi oil. "After 1973,, Israel became much more intent on becomiig part of America's political domination of the Middle East," he said. But the United States sought more in- fluence in the strategically important Middle East and- made overtures to other nations, including Egypt and Saudi Arabia, complicating the U.S. relationship with Israel. U.S. initiatives in the Middle East were fur- ther complicated by the Iranian revolutin and the subsequent taking of 53 American hostages in Tehran, Holland said. "The Carter Doctrine marked America's will to intervene directly again in the Middle East," he said. YET, HOLLAND, a Middle East Af- fairs specialist with the American Friends Services Committee, warned that the AWACS bargain may backfire for the Saudis, alienating some of the Saudis' Arab allies. "Saiudi Arabia is making a big mistake by heading into a military em- brace with the United States," Holland said. "The possibilities are very good that these weapons (the AWACS) could be used against Saudi Arabia." Holland made his remarks during the opening day Friday of a two-day session on "The Tradgedies of Lebanon - A Search for Solution," billed by the AFSC as a "Middle East Peace Con- ference." Holland defended the im- promptu switch in the topic of his lec- ture, which was delivered in Ann Arbor Friday night before the conference moved to Birmingham for more sessions yesterday, by declaring that the AWACS sale is "typical" of U.,S. foreign policy initiatives in the Middle East. "Everywhere you look in regard to America and the Middle East, our resonse has been military, even when the problems are socio-economic ones." ?Piihiill" Nleeds ride out of .town?
