JERUSALEM - Israel will com-

after it began, military sources
said yesterday.

will remain after the pullout but

troops would remain to train the

Blanchard opposes
drilling in Gt. Lakes
LANSING, Mich. - Gov. James
J. Blanchard is trying to talk a
Texas firm out of exploring for
gas and oil in the Great Lakes this
summer, aides said yesterday.
The governor outlined hs
position in a letter to the president
of Grant-Norpac Inc. of Houston
which has advised the Department
of Natural Resources of its desire
to explore for oil and gas deposits
in Lakes Superior, Michigan and
Huron.
The firm also has approached
natural resources agencies in
Wisconsin and Minnesota.
Whether the state can do
anything about Grant-Norpac's
plan, however, is unclear.
"The risks of oil drilling and ex-
ploration within the Great Lakes
are simply unacceptable," Blan-
chard wrote.
"I am fully committed to the
protection of this resource, and
cannot approve or encourage a
project which may ultimately lead
to a request to drill for oil and gas
within the Great Lakes system."
