Show ( Thursday, November 1,1979 Page 4 .ST ANNUAL 9UT1 3s INTERNATIONAL Seoul, South Korea President Park Chung-hee Chung-hee and five bodyguards were assasinated Friday night by the head of the South Korean Central Intelligence Agency. An official government report said KCIA chief Kim Jae-kyu killed Park because he was out of favor with the president and feared he would be fired. The government first reported that Kim killed the president accidentally during an argument with chief presidential bodyguard Cha Chi-shul. While Kim was shooting Park and Cha, five KCIA agents killed four presidential body guards and seriously wounded another. Kim, his five agents and many other KCIA agents have been arrested. The government denied that Kim planned plan-ned a coup and U.S. officials in Seoul said they have no evidence of such a move. In a step to consolidate the new government, acting President Choi Kyu-hah Tuesday named a new director of the KCIA and relaxed curfews and other martial law restrictions imposed after Park's death. San Salvador, EI Salvador U.S. Marine guards and Salvadoran soldiers used tear gas to repel about 300 militant leftists who attacked the U.S. Embassy Tuesday. The 45-minute attack occurred at mid-day and two Marines were reported to have been slightly injured. Paris Accused of being involved in a fraudulent Riveria property deal, French Labor Minister Robert Boulin was found dead in a forest pond oustide Paris Tuesday. Officials said the death was an apparent suicide. Boulin, who had held nine ministerial posts in 17 years, had been linked by the press to irregular property sales. He had declared his innocence, in-nocence, stating: "Let the people say what they want, my conscious is clear." Johannesburg, South Africa The U.S. government govern-ment announced last Thursday that a surveillance sur-veillance staellite had indicated a low-yield nuclear blast had occurred September 22 off the coast of South Africa. South African officials said the blast could have been caused by an accident on a Soviet nuclear submarine but U.S. experts were skeptical. skep-tical. Some observers felt South Africa was attempting at-tempting to divert scrutiny from itself and that it may have detonated a nuclear device. The Soviet Union officially denied any of its nuclear submarines had suffered an explosion and asserted the blast was an atmospheric nuclear test explosion set off by South Africa. Paris The right combination of rain and sun has produced a grape harvest in some regions of France that is being touted as one of the premier vintages of recent times. In Epernay, France, the Champagne Producers' Association said its harvest would be the biggest in history and of "exceptional quality." New York Surgeons removed the shah of Iran's gall bladder last week and checked to see if his long-stanaing cancer of the lymph glands had worsened. While Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi was on the operating table, about 150 demonstrators chanted "Death to the Shah!" and waved banners ban-ners that read, "A peaceful death is too good for the shah!" In Tehran, Iran, revolutionary leader Ayatollah Ruhallah Khomeini said he hoped reports of the shah's cancer were true. Moscow Soviet President Leonid Brezhnev proved that rumors of his death were greatly exaggerated last week when he appeared in public for the first time since October 8. Brezhnev was seen briefly on Soviet television and appeared to be in no better but no worse health than in recent months. Nairobi, Kenya Deposed Ugandan dictator Idi Amin is waiting in Libya to return to his country coun-try as a conquering hero, according to diplomatic officials. Reliable sources said he has become obsessed with plans to stage a triumphant return to his still-embattled homeland, a nation he virtually destroyed during his eight-year rule of terror.

Carter said the "unearned profits" of oil companies com-panies should be funneled "to meet the needs of our American families, to pay the increased costs of energy." Washington Senator Edward Kennedy said he will formally launch his campaign for the Democratic nomination November 7, in his hometown of Boston. The Kennedy for President Committee registered with the Federal Election Commission Com-mission Monday, clearing the way legally for the Massachusetts senator to enter the nomination battle with President Carter. The decision to formally announce the candidacy as early as next week pointed up the feeling among Kennedy strategists that they have no time to lose in catching cat-ching up with the Carter organizational efforts that have been underway for months. Chicago A group of Boston doctors, in the November 2 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association, said a beer or two, a glass of wine or even a couple of highballs may do your heart some good. But one heart specialist warned warn-ed people not to get carried away with the news. Moderate consumption of beer, wine and liquor may reduce the risk of heart attack, a study of drinking habits of more than 1,100 men has shown, according to the Journal. Washington The beleaguered SALT II treaty received a big boost last Thursday when it was supported by Senate Majority Leader Robert Byrd. Byrd gave a ringing endorsement of the pact, saying it could have a "profound effect" on prospects for world peace "for many years to come." Breaking months of silence on the proposed treaty, the senate majority leader said, "I have concluded that SALT II is in our national interests." Los Angeles Police and FBI agents are following several strong clues to the whereabouts of a Irish Republican Army "Jackal" believed to have plotted to assassinate Princess Margaret, security sources said last week. Police have nicknamed their suspect "Jackal" from the book "The Day of the Jackal," which told of a plot to assassinate the late French President Charles de Gaulle. In Belfast, sources in the IRA denied any plot to kill the princess, saying although she was a "legitimate target" they would not take such action in the United States for political reasons. Washington President Carter committed the United States government last week to providing $69 million in aid to Cambodia in an effort to avert "a tragedy of genocidal proportion." Administration officials have said millions of Cambodians face starvation. One private relief group has estimated Cambodia had a population of eight million a decade ago, but that figure has been reduced now to 4.7 million. It said three million surviving Cambodians are "in dire danger of starvation."
