Motorists support seatbel law

IN BRIEF
From United Press International

I

DETROIT (UPI) - Two-thirds of Michigan motorists
support the state's mandatory seatbelt law that takes ef-
fect July 1 and more than four-fifths of them will comply
according to a public-opinion study released yesterday.
The study by Nordhaus Research Inc. of Farmington
Hills was commissioned by the Michigan Coalition for
Safety Belt Use, which includes Secretary of State
Richard Austin.
According to the survey, 67 percent of those questioned

said they favored the law, 71 percent said they would
buckle up all or most of the time once the law goes into ef-
fect.
Seventy-three percent said they thought a significant
number of lives could be saved each year if everyone wore
safety belts.
"We are extremely encouraged by the results of the
Michigan survey on the safety-belt use law," said Thomas
Reel, executive secretary of the coalition.

Prayers approved
for graduation
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. - In-
vocations and benedictions can be
included in this year's commen-
cement ceremonies at two West
Michigan public high schools, a
federal judge ruled late Wed-
nesday.
American Civil Liberties Union
attorneys last week called on U.S.
District Judge Benjamin Gibson of
Grand Rapids to issue a
preliminary injunction barring the
prayers, which they charged
violate constitutional provisions in
the First Amendment against the
promotion of religion by public in-
stitutions.
In a 16-page opinion, Gibson
refused to ban the prayers from
this year's ceremonies, but
declined school district attorneys'
requests to dismiss the case.
White House seeks
compromise on MX
WASHINGTON - The White
House, seeking to avoid an em-
barrassing defeat in the GOP-led
Senate, held, last-minute
negotiations yesterday with Sen.
Sam Nunn on a deal to limit
deployment of the MX missile in
existing silos.
"We have not nailed down an.
agreement, but we've made sub-
stantial progress," Nunn (D.-Ga.)
said. Debate on Nunn's amen-
dment to limit production and
deployment of the 10-warhead MX
was suspended briefly to allow
time for the talks.
Nunn would not provide details
of the agreement being worked out
with the White House, but said he
was holding firm that there be a
"cap" on deployment of the 10-
warhead MX in the old
Minuteman-3 silos that he con-
siders vulnerable to Soviet attack.
Palestinians defend
refugee camps
BEIRUT, Lebanon - Palestinian

guerrillas backed by rocket fire
from the hills above Beirut battled
yesterday to keep Shiite Moslem
gunmen from overrunning three
refugee camps where nearly 2116
people have died in five days of
vicious fighting.
Stray shells crashed onto the
runways at Beirut airport, woun-
ding two workers and forcing Mid-
dle East Airlines officials to
suspend all flights "until further
notice." The airport was last hit
May 5.
Amid increasing reports of
atrocities in the fighting, hospitals
in the Moslem western half of the
Lebanese capital announced they
would treat only emergency cases
because they were now in a
"disaster" situation.
Police foil terrorist
CAIRO, Egypt - Egyptian
authorities announced yesterday
they had foiled a Libyan-backed
plot to bomb the U.S. Embassy in
Cairo, seizing a suspected terrorist
and a car packed with 185 pounds
of explosives.
The bombing was to have taken
place during peak business hours
Wednesday so as to kill as many
people as possible, acording to a
statement issued by the Interior
Ministry.
The ministry said the plot was
masterminded by a Libyan agent
and carried out by a member of a
Syrian-based terrorist group hired
by the Libyan for $500,000.

SEOUL, South Korea - More

yesterday and threatened to com-
mit mass suicide if police tried to
drive them out.
The students demanded
