Disaster officials surveying the area after the quake yesterday were amazed at the relatively light damage. e m o r "We've had more damage from smaller quakes," said* William Chambers, director of the Humboldt County Office of Emergency Services. The quake temporarily knocked out electricity to some fL ses 7,500 homes, but Pacific Gas & Electric Co. said power was quickly restored. A nuclear power station, shut down since 1976 for fear of an earthquake disaster, came through the quake with no Sdamage, its manager said. THE, MOST SERIOUS injuries reported were suffered by five members of a Eureka family, wlen their car crashed off + I i EY a shattered overpass on U.S. 101 and a pickup truck smashed out. They were hospitalized with serious injuries. The truck driver sustained minor injuries. At the Northwestern Pacific Railroad yard in Eureka, brakeman Jeff Whalen, 29, said locomotives were "jumping up and down" on the tracks. "BOXCAR DOORS WERE slamming. All the power tran- sformers were going off around town, lighting up the sky," Whalen said. Greg O'Neill of Crescent City, Calif., said, "I seriously thought it was the end of the world." He said the quake woke him up, started slow, built up, lasted about a minute, and knocked things off the shelves of his mobile home. A paper pulp mill suffered costly damage when the quake ruptured water and power lines and a home was extensively damaged when a candle, lighted after the electricity failed, touched off a fire. The quake was felt 250 miles south, in the San Francisco area, and northward to central Oregon. Residents reported furniture moving, dishes rattling, but no extensive damage. down on top of them, police saki.

The report, compiled by the National Cancer Institute, said survival statistics can be considered a useful measure of the success of cancer treatment. Dr. Max Myers, who with Dr. Ben- jamin Hankey prepared the report, said survival rates "can indicate whether there has been overall improvement in the detection, diagnosis and treatment, of cancer patients." AS NOTED IN part of the report disclosed last week, the improved sur- vival rates are not uniform according to race.

Black men have significantly lower survival rates than whites for eight of 14 types of cancers surveyed, the report said. These include cancers of the lung, rectum, colon, larynx, prostate, blad- der, and Hodgkin's Disease. Black women have much lower sur- vival rates than whites -for nine of 17 cancer types surveyed, the study con- tinued. Japanese man saling Everest KATMANDU, Nepal (UPI) - A Japanese adventurer who crossed the North Pole in a dog sled and rafted down the Amazon River is trying to conquer the frozen summit of 29, 028- foot Mount Everest. Naomi Uemura, 39, and five fellow; citizens are the first Japanese to try to scale the icy reaches of the world's highest mountain in wintertime. "Winds will be as high as 93 mph and temperatures, above 24,000 feet, will be as low as 44 degrees below zero Fahrenheit," the 39-year-old Vermura said. The climbers plan to scale the forbid- ding Everest via the Southeast Ridge, a. normal route for mountaineers. Uemura said they plan to reach base camp by the end of November and would make the first summit bid during the first 10 days of January. If that fails, they will descend to base camp and try again at the end of the same month. IN BRIEF' Compiled from Associated Press and United Press international reports Four Ann Arbor teenagers killed in crash near Alpena Four Ann Arbor teenagers, on a weekend camping trip, were killed when their car crashed head-on into another vehicle on U.S. 23 near Alpena. The four victims were students at Community High School. They were identified by State Police as James Millar, 19; Sloane Staples, 19; Willie Randall, 18; and Michelle Miller, 17. Millar apparently was driving the compact car in which his friends were riding when it collided head-on with another vehicle. Both cars were y engulfed in flames upon impact and the four victims were burned beyond recognition, police said. The driver of the second car, Tim Cousineau, 39, of Bay City, was taken to Alpena General Hospital. He was listed in fair condition. Investigators said it was not immediately known which car crossed the center line. Tish seeks new vote Robert Tisch, the author of the Tisch tax cut amendment that was defeated in Tuesday's election, said yesterday he will ask the courts for a new vote on the controversial measure-Proposal D. Tisch claims the state officials' alleged use of taxpayer money in fighting Proposal D amounts to fraud. Proposal D would lave cut local property taxes by more than 50 percent and forced the state to make up lost local revenues-about $2 billion. It was defeated by more than 400,000 votes. Inflation outpaces incomes; Michigan drop sharpest WASHINGTON-Inflation more than doubled personal income gains for April through June, according to government figures released yesterday. Michigan residents' incomes fell the most, at a full 1 percent, while total per- sonal income nationwide rose 1.1 percent. Inflation rose 2.6 percent in the same three months. Personal income in the Southwest rose 2.5 percent-the largest increase in the nation. Five states-Michigan, Kentucky, Idaho, Oregon, and Alaska-recorded actual declines in personal incomes. Personal income in Oklahoma was up 3 percent. Payroll declines in the five hardest hit states were attributed to produc- tion cuts in the car industry, and in iron, steel, lumber, textiles, paper, and chemicals.4 Chicago tops Los Angeles in latest census figures CHICAGO-The latest census figures show that Chicago has resumed its place as the nation's "second city." But Los Angeles may catch up yet. Initial figures released by the U.S. Census Bureau during the summer showed Los Angeles with a narrow lead over Chicago. But the newest set of figures-still termed "preliminary"-gave Chicago the edge. Census figures delivered last week to the offices of Chicago Mayor Jane Byrne and the area's congressional representatives show Chicago had an April 1 population of 2,969,570. It was the first -time in 60 years Chicago's population has dropped below 3 million. Los Angeles had 2,950,010 residents, according to census data-a gain of about 140,000 since 1970. New York is still the largest U.S. city with a population of about 6.8million. Voyager finds new moon orbiting Saturn PASADENA, Calif.-Voyager 1 found a new modn of Saturn, the 15th now known, before a rain storm in Spain wiped out five hours of pictures and science data from the spacecraft, scientists said yesterday. The new moon, only about 50 miles in diameter, was sighted by Voyager cameras just outside Saturn's A-Ring. It was the third moon of the ringed planet discovered by Voyager 1 in the past few days. The satellite antenna in Madrid is one of three that form a worldwide receiving network for Voyager 1. Exceptionally heavy rain cut that anten- na's.service to Voyager, interrupting transmission of the data. Voyager 1 is about 1 billion miles from Earth. Iraq claims boat seizure Iran and Iraq both reported intensified fighting yesterday in the battle for Iranian stronghold Abadan. Iraq said it captured 41 Iranian patrol boats, sunk two Iranian gunboats, and captured a naval base near Abadan. Iran said its U.S.-built Phantom warplanes struck at an Iraqi oil refinery about 140 miles north of Baghdad. Meanwhile, Baghdad radio broadcast an Iraqi war communique saying its forces killed 27 Iranians in fighting at Abadan. Much of the 48-day war's fighting has focused on Abadan because it is the site of one of the world's largest oil refineries. Bahama to rescue Hiatians MIAMI-The Bahamian government has agreed to rescue 102 Haitians stranded on a tiny island-more than a month after the U.S. Coast Guard fir- st reported the Hiatians's plight, coast guard officials said yesterday. Five refugees reportedly starved to death. The rescue vessel is scheduled to arrive tomorrow at Cayo Lobos-Key of the Wolves-an island about 25 miles off the coast of Cuba. It is within the jurisdiction of the Bahamas. Volume XCI, No. 58 Sunday, November 9,1980 The Michigan Daily is edited and managed by students at the University of Michigan.
