4 Page 2-Sunday, November 21, 1982-The Michigan Daily NEW TACTICS HARDER TO COMBAT Terrorists elude security efforts EDITOR 'S NOTE- Ten years ago, Palestinian commandos massacred 11 Israelis at the Munich Olympic games, riveting world at- .tention on international terrorism. Today, terrorism eludes a growing net work of security forces, spreading steadily in ever-changing Patterns. By MORT ROSENBLUM AP Special Correspondent AMSTERDAM (AP)- A Dutch Justice Ministry official, palms spread in futility, is blunt: "Eliminating terrorism is an absolute impossibility. OK, we're ready for the hijackings and hostage-taking. But for most of it, we can only sit and wait." In a decade of containing terrorism, Italy shattered the Red Brigades and West Germany all but obliterated the Baader-Meinhof group. Dutch marines, behind the roar of diving jets, recap- tured a train, persuading hijackers that terror will not free the Moluccan islan- ds from Indonesia. But European and U.S officials say groups are springing up faster than police can track them. And, they say, entrenched nationalists, "Palestinians, Irish and others," use new tactics to elude authorities who cooperate only partially across borders. "THESE NEW groups are very small, very aggressive and very dangerous," the Dutch specialist says, asking the anonymity that is customary in this delicate area. "And the old problems remain." If terrorist groups do not threaten governments' survival, officials say, they push free societies toward repressive measures, forcing innocent citizens onto a vaguely defined bat- tlefield. On Aug. 9 in Paris, terrorists burst in- to Jo Goldenberg's delicatessen and sprayed gunfire, killing six people. FRANCE suffered 112 incidents in a 30-day period this summer, many of them victimless bombings by Corsican autonomists. In Italy, where terrorism is declining, leftists and rightists struck 428 times in See WORLD, Page 6 Nominations Are Now Being Accepted for the Rackham Pre- Doctoral Rak o iP e Fellowships For students who have substantially com- pleted all course requirements and depart- mental exams required for admission to candidacy; Stipend plus Tuition for 2'/2 terms.

JON HEISE, Director, The International Center, U. of M. IN BRIEF Compiled from Associated Press and United Press International reports Salvadoran troops retake towns held by leftist guerrillas SAN SALVADOR, El Salvador- Hundreds of troops began leaving Chalatenango Province in north El Salvador after retaking four of six towns seized by leftist rebels last month, military sources said yesterday. One of the sources, who asked not be named, said the military suffered 40 dead and 60 wounded during the 10-day operation by 5,000 soldiers. The Defense Ministry has refused to disclose army casualties. It was not immediately clear if the entire operation had ended or if only part of the force was leaving the area, which rebels opposed to the U.S.- backed government attacked last month in a major offensive. The sources also did not explain why the army retook the rebel-held towns 50 miles north of San Salvador. The Defense Ministry earlier claimed it did not consider the towns valuable because they were worthless "ghost towns." Soviet officials say Andropov leads candidates for president MOSCOW- Yuri Andropov, the new Soviet Communist Party chief, has consolidated his power far more rapidly than expected and now appears to be the top candidate to assume the late Leonid Brezhnev's other post, that of president, Soviet sources and Communist diplomats say. When Brezhnev died Nov. 10, the betting was that Andropov held the edge in taking Brezhnev's party post but no one ruled out Konstantin Chernenko, Brezhnev's long-time friend and aide. In the past few days, sources have confirmed that Andropov, 68, and Cher- nenko, 71, waged a tough battle to succeed Brezhnev but that Andropov won after getting the support of Defense Minister Dmitri Ustinov, Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko and Ukrainian party boss Vladimir Sherbitsky. When Andropov was named general secretary of the party two days after Brezhnev died, it was believed that Chernenko would be named president, a job which confers head-of-state status. He is still seen as having an outside shot at the job-but only if Andropov has decided that he doesn't want it. Pope attacks mafia in Sicily PALERMO, Sicily- A heavily guarded Pope John Paul II traveled to this Mafia stronghold yesterday and lashed out at the wave of "barbarous violence" that has claimed 130 lives in gangland murders this year, in- cluding four just hours before his arrival. Police picked up two West Germans and an Austrian carrying empty car- tridge magazines and a bayonet in backpacks near the papal route two hours before the pope got to Palermo. However, they had no guns, police said. Police said two of the men would be placed under formal arrest but did not say what they would be charged with. They said later they did not believe the incident was linked to the papal visit, but refused to elaborate. The pope was shot and wounded by a Turkish extremist in St. Peter's Square on May 13, 1981 and a year later escaped unharmed when charged by a bayonet-wielding renegade Spanish priest in Fatima, Portugal. After his motorcade passed just yards from the spot where Italy's top crime fighter was assassinated in September, the pope went to a palm-lined central square Saturday and threw down an immediate challenge to Palermo authorities and citizens to put an end to the killings. PLO renews effort to free captured American in Lebanon4 DAMASCUS, Syria- The Palestine Liberation Organization has renewed its efforts for the release of David Dodge, the acting president of the American University of Beirut who was kidnapped four months ago.' A PLO source here said the kidnappers are getting nervous and at one point threatened to kill the 58-year-old Dodge, but a top PLO official urged them not to and has personally taken charge of attempts to win Dodge's freedom. Dodge, abducted July 19 from the American University of Beirut campus during the Israeli siege of West Beirut, is still in good health, according to the well-placed source who declined use of his name. "We know exactly who has him," he added. "We are talking with them." The PLO official said the name of the small, radical group that abducted Dodge was known to the PLO but it was not part of the PLO. Western and Lebanese sources in Beirut have said they believe Dodge was abducted by a small group of Pro-Iranian Lebanese radicals who had broken away from Amal, a political and paramilitary organization of Lebanese Shiite Moslems who follow the teachings of Iran's- Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini. Walesa meets with Polish bishop WARSAW, Poland- Solidarity leader Lech Walesa met yesterday in War- saw with Archbishop Jozef Glemp, Roman Catholic primate of Poland. It was the former union leader's first trip outside his Gdansk home since his release last week from 11 months of imprisonment. There was no word of the subject of the 2 -hour meeting between Walesa and Glemp, who had personally appealed for the Solidarity leader's release. The last reported meeting between the two men took place four days before martial law was imposed on Dec. 13 and Walesa was taken into deten- tion. Aides would not say whether the meeting had any connection with a U.S. television report that security agents had attempted to smear Walesa by showing sexually "compromising" pictures, tapes and documents to church officials. Walesa, wearing a gray suit with a Black Madonna badge in its lapel and carrying a bunch of flowers, looked serious when he left the primate's palace in Warsaw's Old Town shortly after 2:30 p.m. Vol. XCIII, No. 64 Sunday, November 21, 1982 The Michigan Daily is edited and managed by students at The University of Michigan.
