..Shuttle' EDWARDS AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. (AP) - Six astronauts overcame 'broken equipment yesterday, fired ;Columbia's rockets and started a bjazing descent to Earth with a cargo of science treasures gathered in a record 1F-day shuttle voyage. The pinpoint landing on a dry lakebed ;rpnway came at 3:47 p.m. Pacific time nearly eight hours later than NASA had planned.

For the first time, the shuttle ap- proached its landing from the north- west. The glide path carried it over the Aleutian Islands of Alaska, across the U.S. coastline 80 miles north of San Francisco, directly over Fresno, then 20 miles east of Bakersfield and on into Edwards. The touchdown ended a mission that began Nov. 28 with a launch from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida as Columbia, returning to the sky for the first time in a year, carried aloft the $1 billion, European-built Spacelab in its cargo bay. COLUMBIA landed weighing 110 tons, heavier than any of the earlier shuttles. The landing delay came after a powerful jolt shuddered through the craft early yesterday morning, followed by the failure of a computer W. Washington.

MSA errs in sexual orientation proposal Continued from Page 1) University..bylaws. MSA PRESIDENT Mary Rowland, saying she was glad to know that such a' clause already existed, added that "a lot of work needs to be done" in establishing equality for gay and lesbian students. She said MSA would try to "let students know" that this is part of their constitution. Jim Toy, gay male advocate for the University's human sexuality office, said the success of such a proposal today if it had made it on the student ballot, is hard to predict. In 1977, "the political climate on campus was more liberal than it is today," he said. Toy also said that while the increased conservatism among students might work against such an amendment, the increased awareness and education of students to homosexuality in recent years could have worked in the amen- dment's favor. inrese-waenssadduato of FACTORY CLOSEOUTS *t Swimwear, * Footwear * Boy wea r 30% Specializes in Quantity Orders 419 E.
