"I captured some of the people who tried to assassinate me," Amin said. "I've got them, and that will be debated later at the present meeting. The whole Western press knew what was going to happen to me. They (Western 'imperialists') were sending people to Uganda to kill me, to Angola to kill President (Agostinho) Neto, to Benin to Trill President ( Mathieu ) Kerekou and to Guinea to kill President (Ahmed) Sekou Toure." Sidon Fighting erupted on three fronts Monday in southern Lebanon and rightist troops appeared ready for a major attack against a leftist-Palestinian stronghold near the Israeli border. Travelers arriving from the combat zones said two people were killed and eight injured when opposing forces exchanged artillery fire near the village of Yarin. The fighting spread to the rightistrheld village of Alma al-Shaab, severing the east-west road from the seaside settlement of Naquora to the leftist stronghold of Bint Jbeil. Moscow President Carter's decision to push development of the Cruise missile was attacked by the Soviet Union Sunday. The Communist party newspaper Pravda said the move has opened a new round in the "dangerous. arms race" and accused the United States of attempting to delay a new strategic arms limitation agreement. Beirut, Lebanon An oil price split that has plagued the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries for the past half year was ended Sunday when Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates announced a five percent increase. The split occurred when 11 OPEC nations raised the price of their crude oil by ten percent on Jan. 1, promising another five percent increase on July V. Saudi" Arabia and UAE, at that time, agreed toraise., theii prices by only five percent with no commitment to future increases. Sunday's increase by the two holdouts coupled with an announcement Wednesday by nine OPEC members that the July 1 price hike has been cancelled, puts all OPEC nations, except Libya and Iraq, at the same 1977 price level. Libya and Iraq have not yet abandoned the extra five percent rise but are expected to do so. 5 r Tom Ligare Mount Air Mall "See me for car home, life, health and business insurance: Stll (ARM INSURANCE Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there.

Illinois Ankara, Turkey Turkish Premier Bulent Ecevit resigned Sunday after his ten-day-old center-left government was defeated on its first vote of confidence in parliament.

His defeat could open the door to a return of right-wing coalition rule under former Premier Suleyman Demirel. Observers feel Turkish rule under a right-wing coalition could aggravate such problems as the Cyprus deadlock and strained relations with the United States. Econe, Switzerland Monsignor Marcel Leb-ebvre, Leb-ebvre, former archbishop of Dakar, ordained 14 young priests at his seminary last Wednesday against the expressed orders of Pope Paul VI. The 71-year-old traditionalist French archbishop and his ardent followers are viewed by some Vatican specialists as the most serious threat to church unity since the Protestant Reformation. Lefebvre, who is leading a campaign against church reforms instituted by the second Vatican Council, said, "The Pope said that what we are doing today will be a rupture. But we don't think so." He then asked and answered: "But who is the Pope? What is the Vatican? The Vatican is only a residence for the successor of St. Peter. The Holy Church is the center. ' ' NATIONAL New York A gunman hijacked a bus Monday, ordered it onto a Kennedy Airport runway and demanded $6 million and air transport out of the country as ransom for his hostages aboard the bus.

Washington In a surprise move, President Carter Thursday ordered a halt to the Bl bomber program but called for the deployment of Cruise missiles which can be launched from the air. Carter cited faith in the Cruise missile, continued effectiveness of the B52 bomber and the expense of the Bl as reasons for abandoning the most costly airplane ever. Although the House has appropriated $1.5 billion to build five Bl's the Senate Democratic leadership is expected to support Carter's stand. Washington The U.S. Supreme Court Wednesday banned use of the death penalty for the crime of rape and suggested that capital punishment may not be legal for any crime other than murder. By a 7-2 vote, the court ruled that the death penalty imposed on condemned Georgia rapist could not be carried out and a majority of six justices ruled that rape may never be punished by death. Had the court decided that states can use the. death sentence for crimes in which the victim's life is not taken it could have set a precedent for other non-fatal crimes such as treason, hijacking and kidnapping. middle school for younger children, a number of small children will be traveling to and from school along Park Avenue. With the increase of mining activity, traffic has increased along Park Ave. for heavy equipment and miners traveling to and from work as well. Also, you can see by the development of the subdivisions in the north part of town that Park City is becoming a suburb of Salt Lake, with an increasing population over the past few years. The proposed development of the Deer Valley Ski Project will also add to the already congested Park Ave. situation. The new highway extension would also facilitate traffic access into the main business district of the community.
