Although Israeli Defense Minister Ezer Weiz-man Weiz-man said fighting had died down by Monday evening, independent observers reported continued con-tinued Israeli attacks on guerrilla positions. Israel had apparently achieved its goal of creating a "security belt" south of the strategic Litani, which parallels the Lebanese-Israeli border. bor-der. The Palestine Liberation Organization has rejected the idea of a cease-fire and vowed to wage "endless war" to prevent Israel from tightening its control over the 15-mile deep security belt north of the 62-mile border. Casualty reports are conflicting following the Israeli thrust into Lebanon, which came in retaliation for an Arab terrorist attack on Israeli civilians. The PLO claimed Sunday that 144 of its fighters had been killed and 450 Israelis had been killed or wounded. Israel said only 20 of its troops had been killed. United Nations The U.N. Security Council Sunday demanded that Israel withdraw its troops from southern Lebanon and authorized a 4,000-man U.N. force to take their place. The plan calls for five 600-man battalions and 1,000 logistics personnel to be sent to Lebanon for a six-month term with an option to extend. However, some U.S. officials predicted it would be "weeks or months" before Israel pulls out of southern Lebanon. St. John's Newfoundland As of Monday, Norwegian and Canadian hunters had killed more than 43,000 seals in the first 10 days of this year's seal hunt off the Labrador coast, according accor-ding to government officials. The sealers are permitted to kill 180,000 seals this year, a quota which the Canadian government gover-nment claims will allow a slow growth of the seal population. This assertion is disputed by conservation conser-vation groups and some scientists, who say insufficient in-sufficient information is available to make this determination. Warsaw, Poland Two agricultrual officials were sentenced to prison terms by a Polish court for negligence in pig breeding that resulted in the death of 232 young pigs.

State Farm Life Insurance Company Home Office: Bloomington, Illinois Paris France's center-right coalition repulsed a strong challenge from the Socialist-Communist Socialist-Communist alliance and won a clear but reduced majority in national elections held Sunday. The coalition, which was governed for 20 years, took 288 seats in the 491-seat assembly compared to 199 for leftists. Socialist leader Francois Mitterranc blamed the leftist defeat on the "violent, incessant" attacks at-tacks by the Communists on their leftists partners part-ners indicating that the hastily conceived alliance between the Communists and Socialists might not last. Rome Former Italian Premier Aldo Moro was kidnapped Thursday and the government has mounted a massive search for Moro and his abductors. West Germany has sent some of its elite anti-terrorist specialists to aid in the hunt. At noon Saturday, the Red Brigades, a Marxist urban guerrilla group, sent a snapshot of Moro and announced he will be tried by a "people's tribunal." Police said they believe the terrorists never left Rome after abducting the former premier and killing his five bodyguards in a street ambush. Moscow Soviet cosmonauts Yuri Romanenko and Georgy Grechko landed in a snow-covered field in central Asia Thursday, ending a record-breaking record-breaking 96-day space mission.

NATIONAL Washington Former Congressman Richard Hanna confessed Friday that he received more than $200,000 for using his influence to assist Tongsun Park, who allegedly bought congressional support for South Korea. The California Democrat became the first former or present congressman to be convicted in the Korean influence-buying scandal.

He pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court to a single count of conspiracy to detraud the U.S. government and could be sentenced sen-tenced to a maximum of five years in prison and a $10,000 fine. Although admitting he took money from Park, Hanna denied knowledge of the alleged connection connec-tion between the rice leader , and,, th puth Korean Central Intelligence Agency. Washington The first of two Panama Canal treaties was approved by the Senate Thursday. The victory, which President Carter said was vital to his credibility as an international leader, came on a slim one-vote margin with a two-thirds two-thirds majority needed for passage. The 68-32 vote approved a treaty which provides for permanent neutrality of the 64-year-old waterway and for joint U.S.-Panamanian defense after the year 2000. Approval came after the Senate passed an amendment that would permit U.S. military forces to intervene to insure that the canal stays open after control is transferred. trans-ferred. Still to be voted on is a second treaty which provides for the gradual transfer of the canal to Panama over the next 22 years. In addition, both houses of Congress must approve complicated legislation to implement the turnover. San Juan Capistrano, California The swallows returned to Capistrano Sunday but the birdwatchers outnumbered the birds . An estimated 900 swallow ended their 3,000-mile 3,000-mile journey from Argentina and were greeted by about 400,000 people who crowded the city to await the return. The swallows have missed their March 9 arrival date only once, in 1935, when a storm put the birds three days behind schedule. Nome, Alaska A 15-day, 1,049-mile dog sled race across rugged Alaskan terrain ended Sunday Sun-day with only one second separating the first two finishers. Dick Mackey won the 1978 Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race when his lead dog crossed the finish line and then collapsed, exhausted. Rick Swen-son's Swen-son's team was just inches behind. Mackey said he and Swenson were never more than 50 feet apart for the last 800 miles and they were neck-and-neck when they entered the streets of Nome. Philadelphia A four-square block area around the home of a radical back-to-nature group was cordoned off by police and firemen Thrusday in an attempt to starve out members wanted on arrest warrants. The dilapidated Victorian home has been the scene of a confrontation since May 20 of last year, when police responding to complaints from neighbors were met by members with automatic weapons. The radical group and police have been engaged in a staring match since that time and the confrontation has cost Philadelphia taxpayers tax-payers an estimated $1 million. Members of the group, called Move, adhere to a philosophy which forbids baths, use of other sanitary facilities and killing any wildlife, including in-cluding rats. |
