Sponsored by the PARK CITY SKI CLUB INTERNATIONAL Tehran, Baghdad A visit to New York by Iranian Premier Mohammed Ali Rajai fueled rumors that a deal for the release of the American hostages was being resolved between the U.S. and Iran. Meanwhile, the speaker of that country's parliament said a commission would consider the fate of the hostages within two or three days. And almost all parties in the continuing con-tinuing Iraq-Iran war accused the U.S. of helping to instigate the conflict. As Ali Rajai arrived in New York to present Iran's case before the United Nations, speculation arose that the hostages Would be traded for $310 million in badly needed military spare parts that had been sold to Iran, then frozen in the U.S. after the embassy take-over. Chicago TV station WLS said all but four of the hostages had been transferred to Tehran in preparation for the truce. But both State Department Depart-ment spokesman and a representative for Rajai denied the deal. Rajai hinted a softer stance for Iran when he expressed sympathy for the hostage families and said that, in practice, the U.S. had apologized for its treatment of Iran. "All it needs is probably to put something on paper," Rajai said. However, he also laid down new conditions for the release. The U.S., he said, must cease military aid to Jordan, an Iraqui ally; remove its ships from the Persian Gulf; and withdraw four reconaissance planes the U.S. gave to Saudi Arabia, which Rajai said are used to mislead and harass Irani aircraft. President Carter, meanwhile, held out a carrot to Iran by promising to unfreeze their assets and drop the present embargo if the hostages were released. Iraq condemned the, "collusion" between Iran and the United States, while the PLO also attacked at-tacked America, saying it had instigated the Persian Gulf War. The PLO's big news this week, though, came from a peace offer by group leader Abu Iyad, who outlined a three-point plan: Iraq will withdraw to borders set by the 1975 Algiers Treaty or the 1913 Treaty of Constantinople; Con-stantinople; Iran agrees to negotiate after the withdrawal; and the retreat will be supervised by non-alighed nations. Fighting between the two countries continued through Id el Adha, the first of the four-day Feast ,,, pi Sacrifice, a period sacred to Islam when no bloodshed is' supposedly allowed. Iraquis still besieged the Iranian cities of Abadan and Khorramshahr. The latter's name has been changed by its countrymen to "Khuninshahr " city of blood. Manila President Ferdinand Marcos escaped injury after a bomb exploded at a Filipino convention con-vention center within 50 yards of him. After the explosion, which injured 20 people, including seven Americans, Marcos ordered the arrest of nine political opponents, a U.S. businessman and 20 others. The bomb interrupted a conference of the American Society of Travel Agents (ASTA), and was believed to be the latest explosion carried out by the April 6 Liberation Movement, a Filipino dissident group based in the U.S. The bomb exploded under an empty seat while conventioneers con-ventioneers watched a documentary on American-Philippine relations called "Blood Brothers." Tourism Minister Jose Aspiras said most of the injured had only superficial puncture wounds. But ASTA officials decided to cancel the convention, con-vention, and the 5,000 delegates jammed the airport. air-port. President Marcos has ruled the Philippines by martial law for the last eight years of his 14-year rule. Terrorists have attacked the regime over the last year with random explosions, including a blast in a department store that killed a New York woman. Washington President Carter and Ronald Reagan traded shots over the SALT II treaty last week while their representatives finally sat down to negotiate a face-to-face debate in the waning days of the presidential campaign. The Carter Administration announced it immediately im-mediately would push after the election for the passage of SALT in either the lame-duck or newly-elected Congress whichever body was more likely to ratify it.. Reagan meanwhile filmed a 30-minute-TV address to deflect Carter charges that he might lead the country into war. The Republican challenger said he would seek hew arms negotiations with the Soviets, while restoring a "margin of safety" to American military strength. President Carter responded in a radio address, saying it was risky and dangerous to try frightening the Soviets into sitting sit-ting down at the peace table. Reagan later, remarked, 'The president seems determined to have me start a nuclear war. " Reagan and Carter representatives met to negotiate a format for a face-to-face debate. Republican campaign manager James Baker suggested an election-eve debate similar to the 1976 debate, taking questions from reporters. Robert Strauss, for the Carter forces, argued for an earlier debate and suggested direct questioning by the candidates. With the race believed close in the vital in dustrial states, the Gallup Poll showed Reagan narrowly leading Carter 45 to 42. It also showed John Anderson's chances fading as his 15 support sank to 8. Earlier last week, Carter administration disavowed an attack by former UN ambassador Andrew Young on Reagan. In a speech at Ohio State University, Young slammed Reagan for his August campaign stop at Philadelphia, Miss., where three civil rights workers were killed in 1964. Reagan's speech there on states rights, said Young, signaled that "it's going to be all right to kill niggers when he'd become president." NATIONAL Philadelphia The third time was the charm for the Philadelphia Phillies, who beat the Kansas Kan-sas City Royals 4-1 in the sixth game to win the World Series. The Phillies had lost the series in two previous tries (1915 and 1950) but finally made it Tuesday night. They had won the first two games earlier in the week on home turf, dropped two and won one in Kansas City, and clinched the best-of-7 back in Philly. The Royals rallied by loading the bases in the eighth and ninth innings, but time ran out for them. As pitcher Tug McGraw prepared to throw the final out in the ninth inning, police partolled the sidelines with guard dogs to prevent hysterically happy fans from streaming onto the ball park. Hollywood Mary Tyler Moore, who recently was acclaimed as the mother of a suicidal son in "Ordinary People," suffered real-life tragedy as her only son Ricnard Meeker Jr., 24, died from a shotgun blast last Wednesday. It has not been determined if the death was accidental or a suicide. Meeker was rooming near the University of Southern California with two women, Judy Vasquez and Janet MacLaughlin. Vasquez reported that Meeker had just gotten off the phone with his girlfriend in Fresno. She asked how things were going and he replied "Fine." She said he then began loading and unloading a short-barreled 410 shotgun, murmuring, "She loves me . . . she loves me not." Then, Vasquez, said, "There was a big bang and he fell on the bed." Meeker's father, a Sacramento business executive, who. was Miss Moore's first husband,,, .said his son's death was not a suicide.i i n i 1 1 i . 1 A'distraught Miss Moore flew to Calif tifttla"fo!rv the funeral, where the eulogy was delivered by long-time colleague Edward Asner. Vancouver, Washington Mount St. Helens erupted anew last Friday and Saturday with four blasts going off almost exactly at 12-hour intervals. inter-vals. The new blasts threw smoke and ash 10 miles into the sky and 200 miles southwest of the volcano. There were no injuries, but traveler's advisories were issued for northwestern Washington and the Vancouver Portland area. Portland residents again were washing soot off their cars and sidewalks. "Boy, am I sick of that mountain and its ash," said a disgusted local woman. Atlanta The city's search for the whereabouts of 14 missing black children has thus far resulted in the discovery of 10 corpses. The city has imposed an 11 p.m.-6 a.m. curfew for children under 15. Police, firefighters, and volunteers are searching for further corpses while law officers began a door-to-door canvass for clues in the case. And Atlanta's underworld, revolted by the crimes, is discreetly channeling information to police about the killings. The last discovery was the skeletal remains of 7-year-old Latonya Wilson, found in a fenced-in wooded area. A noted psychic has claimed she has a mental picture of the suspect and will be flying to Atlanta Atlan-ta to aid in the case. Roanoke Rapids, South Carolina Workers at 10 J.P. Stevens textile plants, including the real-life real-life model for movie heroine Norma Rae, celebrated their first union contract. The Stevens company, the second-largest textile firm in the country, had resisted for years. Crystal Lee Sutton, who attempted to organize Stevens for the Amalgamated Textile Clothing and Textile Workers, was fired by the company in 1973 for alleged insubordination and her story became the basis for the movie "Norma Rae." "I sort of feel like running out in the street and shouting," she said from her Burlington, N.C. home. Washington The radio ad for independent presidential candidate Barry Commoner didn't mince words. "Bullshit Carter, Reagan, and Anderson! An-derson! It's all bull!," the ad said, over 376 CBS stations and 200 NBC affiliates. It prompted protest calls from across the nation, and sent reporters to attorney Bill Zimmerman, Zim-merman, representing Commoner's Citizens Party, who argued, "the real obscenities are an unemployment rate among auto workers of 29 and among black teen-agers of 50 . " Zimmerman said it was a "sad commentary on the media" that the ad had attracted more attention at-tention to Commoner than all his six months of campaigning. I! nil |
