4 Page 2 - The Michigan Daily - Wednesday, October 2, 1985 Israelis kill 30 in retaliation for slayings TUNIS, Tunisia (UPI) -,Israeli F- 16 warplanes bombed and destroyed the Palestine Liberation Organization headquarters yester- day, killing at least 30 people and in- juring 30 others in retaliation for the Yom Kippur slayings of three Israelis in Cyprus. The single-engine jets flew a 1,550, mile round trip for the attack on the PLO command center in this North African nation - Israel's longest retaliatory air strike ever. The planes refueled in midflight, the Israeli army said in Jerusalem. THE JETS swept low over the coast to strike Yasser Arafat's headquar- ters only 12 miles south of the. Tunisian capital. Although Arafat escaped the devastating attack, the Israeli bombs destroyed his political headquarters, his residence and the homes of several PLO officials. Dressed in military fatigues and appearing distressed, Arafat and an aide inspected the damage and talked with the wounded. Arafat has made his main headquarters in Tunisia sin- ce being driven out of Beirut by the Israelis in 1982. In Tel Aviv, Defense Minister Yit- zhak Rabin told a briefing the raid was to retaliate for the Yom Kippur slayings of three Israelis aboard a yacht in Cyprus. And he called it a warning to terrorists "that the long arm of the IDF (Israel Defense For- ces) will reach them wherever they are." ALTHOUGH a caller claiming to represent the PLO group "Force 17" claimed responsibility for the attack in Cyprus, the PLO has denied in- volvement. Palestinian sources in the Tunisian capital said at least 30 people, believed to be Palestinians, were killed and 30 others were wounded in the bombing attack by four to six Israeli F-16 jets. At least one of the dead was a mem- ber of Force 17, the sources said. ISRAEL HAS bombed guerrilla bases in neighboring Lebanon 13 times this year, but it was the first time it has struck any other country since June 7, 1981, when its warplanes bombed an Iraqi nuclear reactor near Baghdad. Israel also mounted the airborne mission in 1976 and rescured hostages held at Entebbe airport in Uganda. Yesterday's raid provoked ex- pressions of anger from other Arab countries and Tunisia called for ac- tion by the U.N. Security Council. Waking up can be painful NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION Applications now available in 160 Rackham Deadline Nov. 15, 1985 (Continued from Page 1) But for the most part, boredom keeps students in a state of hiber- nation. And bored, according to Pachella, is something students should not be. "(College) should be the time of your life," he explains. "There are people out there who would die for this opportunity." i But, he said, most students view college as work. "Grades are like their pay." And sometimes even the promise of a huge salary someday isn't enough to keep students from hitting the snooze, rolling over, and dozing. Five-year plan begins fourth year (Continued from Page 1) The art school, the least affected of the three, losing $164,000, also seems to be the quickest to recover of the three. According to Barbara Cer- venka, an assistant dean at the school, enrollment is back up to the pre- review days of 550 students. Cervenka credits this to a nation-wide recruit- ment campaign last year. Trying to ease the impact of the $10 million in cuts to the three schools, Frye last years extended the five- year plan over seven years. The University has now redistribued $12 million of the funds, an additional $4 million this year, while the final $4 million had been scheduled to be redistributed next year. But to make the cuts more "or- derly" and to make up for two years of lost time to the budget reviews, Frye decided that the final $4 million will be spread over three years, en- ding in the 1988-89 academic year. "It seemed to make more sense this way," Sauve said. "If you tell the schools they have to make their cuts now, they may have to lay off some of their staff." IN BRIEF COMPILED FROM ASSOCIATED PRESS AND UNITED PRESS INTERNATIONAL REPORTS Reagan sets Krugerrand ban WASHINGTON - President Reagan yesterday banned importation of Krugerrands, effective Oct. 11, putting into place a key element of the administration's program of limited economic sanctions designed to move South Africa away from its system of racial segregation. The president acted in an executive order issued as a follow-up to san- ctions imposed on Sept. 9, which he said were designed to deal with an "unusual and extraordinary" emergency in South Africa. That nation is in the grip of turmoil over the racial separation policy, apartheid. Reagan said he acted "in view of the continuing nature of that emergency. " Secretary of State George Shultz told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on Sept. 17 that the ban on Krugerrand imports was expected to take effect within weeks. In his Sept. 9 executive order, Reagan said the United States would con- sult with trading partners in the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade before imposing a ban on importation of the gold coins. New anti-AIDS drug tested MINNEAPOLIS - An experimental new drug stops the AIDS virus from reproducing and attacking blood cells in the laboratory, and initial tests show it can be given safely to AIDS victims, researchers said yesterday. "I think this is very promising. This is one of the most potent drugs" against the AIDS virus, said Dr. Hiroaki Mitsuya of the National Cancer Institute. "The advantage of this agent is that it is less toxic in vitro," or in the test tube, than other experimental AIDS medicines. The drug, known chemically as azidothymidine, has been code named compound S by its developer, the pharmaceutical firm Burroughs Wellcome. The effort to treat AIDS has been stymied by the difficulty of attacking viruses in general and the virus that causes this lethal disease in par- ticular. The new drug works by short-circuiting the chemical process that the virus uses to make copies of itself inside human white blood cells. Location of Soviets unknown; caller claims two hostages dead BEIRUT, Lebanon - A caller claiming to represent Islamic Jihad terrorists said two of four kidnapped Soviet officials were killed yester- day and the others would be executed unless Moscow stopped Syrian- backed assaults on the city of Tripoli. Another report said the Soviets were alive. The death claim, made in a call to a Western news agency in Beirut, could not be confirmed by Lebanese or Soviet Embassy authorities. The whereabouts of the three Soviet diplomats and embassy physician abduc- ted Monday remained unknown. "We killed two, the commercial attache and the doctor, and that's all for today," an Arabic-speaking man told the Western news agency. The kidnappings were the first directed at Soviet citizens in Lebanon, where six Americans continue to be held by people identifying them- selves as the Islamic Jihad, or Holy War. Heckler accepts Ireland post WASHINGTON - Margaret Heckler stepped down yesterday as secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services to become ambassador to Ireland but President Reagan denounced reports that she was forced from the post as "malicious gossip" and "falsehood." There had been persistent reports that the White House staff, par- ticularly chief of staff Donald Regan, had disapproved of Heckler's per- formance and had applied pressure to get her out. The department, with 145,000 employees, has a $330 billion budget - the largest in the gover- nment. "She has done a fine job at HHS," the president said, during a brief ap- pearance in the White House press room. "As a matter of fact, if she hadn't done such agood job, I wouldn't have been so eager to seek her out to be the ambassador to Ireland." The president said a successor to Mrs. Heckler had not been chosen. The effective date of her resignation was not immediately clear. Mrs. Heckler fidgeted with her hands and appeared nervous as the president talked with reporters. She said Reagan had persuaded her to take the new post and that she considers it "an honor and an exciting challenge." Students riot, boycott classes JOHANNESBURG, South Africa - Police battled mixed-race high school students following a rally at a university near Cape Town yester- day, and tens of thousands of youths boycotted classes despite a gover- nment appeal. Violence broke out at the University of the Western Cape in Bellville af- ter about 4,000 student leaders staged a rally there to decide whether to go to classes, witnesses said. Schools reopened yesterday after being closed nearly a month because of fierce rioting and the government asked students to return. Reporters said police fired tear gas into buildings of the mixed-race university and one youth was shot in the leg after about 200 youths started throwing rocks. Skirmishes continued late into the afternoon. Student leaders decided at the rally to urge a return to schools today to debate at each site whether to continue the boycott. But the government announced a ban on all meetings on school groun- ds, jeopardizing chances of an agreement to end the walkout. Reporters who visited schools around the Cape Peninsula said most were deserted. Only some primary schools had relatively good attendan- ce, new reports said. Police said seven reporters, including foreign television cameramen, were arrested during the Cape Town rioting and accused of hindering police.
