Iran repelled
after invading
Ira qi territory

From AP and UPI
Iraq said it launched another major
counterattack against the Iranian army
yesterday and claimed to have
destroyed 75 percent of the enemy's
armored forces while moving the war
back into Iran with airstrikes against
the city of Hamadan.
Iranian ruler Ayatollah Ruhollah
Khomeini, his troops reportedly thrown
back by the counter-offensive, issued a
new set of peace conditions that ap-
peared to drop a key demand for the
ouster of Iraqi President Saddam
Hussein.
COMBAT ON the fourth day of
"Operation Ramadan," codensme for
Iran's push into Iraq, shifted to the
skies with reports of heavy Iraqi air at-
tacks against Iranian positions on the
Iraqi side of the Shatt al-Arab water
way that forms part of the disputed
border between the two Gulf rivals.
But Iraq also said its ground forces
resumed their counterattack, "con-
tained the enemy offensive and mauled
the attacking force.
A military communique released in
the Iraqi capital of Baghdad said, "75
percent of the combat capability of.
Iran's armor division was destroyed as
a result of an ingenious plan bravely
carried out by the Iraqi forces."
AN IRANIAN war communique.
carried by the Islamic Republic News
Agency said Iranian forces had "suc-

cessfully smashed Iraqi counteroffen-
sives and claimed to have inflicted 600
casualties and destroyed many Soviet-
supplied T-72 tanks.
"Our forces continue their operation
this morning, inflicting a heavy defeat
on the enemy and completely destroying
56 enemy tanks and armored personnel
carriers," it said, adding at least 200
Iraqi soldiers were killed or wounded.
Though conflicting claims made it
difficult to assess the situation on the
ground, a U.S. intelligence source in
Washington said the 22-month-old war
that has now shifted into Iraq was still
"basically a stalemate at the moment.
Both sides have incurred losses with no
advantages gained by either side."
IRAN INVADED Iraq late Tuesday
with the apparent objective of taking
Basra, a refinery and port city near the
Iranian border, some 300 miles south of
Iraq's capital.
U.S. intelligence analysts speaking
privately said the Iranians advanced
about six miles into Iraq before they
met heavy resistance and were forced
to retreat about four miles.
U.S. officials said earlier that about
100,000 troops from each side were in-
volved in the fighting. Iran claims to
have killed nearly 5,000 Iranians in the
four days of fighting, while Iran says it
killed or wounded 800 Iraqis and cap-
tured791 others.

In Brief
Compiled from Associated Press and
United Press International reports
New secretary of state sworn in
WASHINGTON- George Shultz was sworn in yesterday as secretary of
state, impressed by the difficulty of the world problems he faces but "even
mnore conscious of the opportunities ... to do something wonderful."
Shultz, 61, who gave up the leadership of the worldwide Bechtel Group to
oin President Reagan's Cabinet, had won unanimous Senate confirmation
less than 18 hours earlier to succeed Alexander Haig as the nation's chief
diplomat.
"Welcome to the team," Reagan told him during a brief ceremony in the
sweltering Rose Garden outside the White House. "From now on, I think I'll
havea few things for you to do."
Shaping American foreign policy is the most awesome responsibility of the
presidency, Reagan said. "I look forward to his counsel."
British Rail threatens to replace
strikers who refuse to work
LONDON- Backing up its threat to fire 20,000 striking train engineers,
British Rail said yesterday it was ready to begin hiring and training their
replacements if the strikers do not return to work by Tuesday.
Railway officials said it would take between three and six months to train
new engineers and they warned Britons they would be without nationwide
rail service in the meantime.
The strike by the 20,000-member Associated Society of Locomotive
Engineers' was in its 13th day with railway officials serving notice that they
were ready to use the same tactics as President Reagan did to break last
summer's strike by U.S. air traffic controllers.
Moon sentenced for tax evasion
NEW YORK- The Rev. Sun Myung Moon, spiritual leader of 3 million
Unification Church members worldwide, was sentenced yesterday to serve
18 months in prison and paya $25,000 fine for tax evasion.
Moon's top financial aide, Takuru Kamiyama, 40, was sentenced to six
months in prison and fined $5,000 by U.S. District Court Judge Gerard Goet-
tel. Lawyers said both convictions would be appealed.
"We have faith and we have trust that this will be reversed," said Mose
Durst, president of the Unification Church of America. If Moon goes to jail,
he said, all religious leaders will have reason to fear.
Moon, 62, sat impassively during yesterday's proceedings, listening to the
arguments through an interpreter. He made no comments, and did not react
visibly when Goettel passed sentence.
Moon, who could have been sentenced toas much as 14 years, was convic-
ted May 18 of conspiring to evade taxes from 1973 to 1975 on about $112,000 in
interest earned on personal bank accounts; of failing to report $50,000 in
shares he received ina profit-making venture, and of filing false tax returns.
Petty officer sentenced in death
of Navy recruit on USS Ranger
SAN DIEGO- A 15-month investigation into the death of a recruit on the
USS Ranger ended yesterday when a petty officer was sentenced to three
months hard labor, the only one of 28 originally charged in the death to be
convicted.
The Navy spent hundreds of thousands of dollars prosecuting the officers
and enlisted men from the aircraft carrier which was off the Philippines on
April 14,1981, when 21-year-old Paul Trerice died ina correctionalunit.
The other suspects were acquitted, granted immunity from prosecution or
tried in less serious proceedings than a court-martial.
Petty Officer 2nd Class Darryl Summons, 23, of Fort Jackson, S.C., the last
to be tried, was convicted Thursday of battery and maltreatment. He was
found innocent of more serious charges of involuntary manslaughter and
negligent homicide. The battery conviction was thrown out yesterday.
Trerice of Algonac, Mich., had been an "awardee" in the Correctional
Custody Unit of the Ranger, after taking an unauthorized leave of absence.
The custody unit was not a brig. It was supposed to be a kind of seagoing
"halfway house" where sailors were sent for "retraining."
But the Trerice case exposed a contradiction between the day-to-day
operation of the unit and the philosophy of its architects.
Federal judge blocks deer kill
MIAMI- A federal judge who blocked the killing of thousands of starving
deer sent a team of experts into the flooded Everglades yesterday to see if
the deer can be moved to drier ground where food is more plentiful.
As hunters awaited a final decision on the plan to thin the herd by 2,200
weak and sickly deer, U.S. District Judge Eugene Spellman told the eight
experts-veterinarians, zoologists, biologists and a botanist-to ride air-
boats into the wilderness.
The 51-year-old judge, responding to charges that he couldn't comprehend
the severity of the deer's plight from his chambers, said he would view the
animals from a Coast Guard helicopter.
The judge told the eight experts-four provided by each side in the
dispute-to report back to him Saturday morning.
Spellman's temporary injunction blocking the hunt ends at 5 p.m. today,
and he said he would hold hearings throughout the day if necessary.
"Bring your lunch," he told attorneys.
Seven hours before the three-day hunt was to begin at dawn yesterday
Spellman ordered it halted.
