INTERNATIONAL Madrid, Spain The moderate wing of the Basque separatist movement responded to a recent coup attempt by ordering a cease-fire among their commandos and freeing three hostages. But the militant wing defied that move within hours by staging a bomb and sub-machine gun attack in northern Spain that wounded three policemen. The moderates in the organization ETA held a clandestine news conference, and backed up their words with action by releasing the honorary consuls of Uruguay, El Salvador and Austria, they had kidnapped Feb. 19. They said that, in light of the recent coup attempt, it was time for political institutions to solve the Basque problem. ETA stands for "Basque Land and Liberty" in the native tongue of the province. The organization was credited with over 95 assassinations last year. The moderates in the group are said to favor home rule for the Basque provinces of northern Spain, but the militants, numbering about a hundred, want full independence indepen-dence to establish a Marxist state. London Three British citizens jailed in Iran were freed last Friday after prolonged negotiations, and one, arriving back in London, had a grim tale of mistreatment to tell. Jean Waddel was a misisonary in the Iranian town of Ishafan who traveled to Tehran last May to obtain ob-tain an exit visa. She was arrested in her hotel room by revolutionary guards, strangled into unconsciousness, and then shot. After a hospital stay, she was was arrested again, and thrown into in-to the city's Evin Prison as a spy. The other two prisoners, Dr. John Coleman and his wife Audrey, also are missionaries, but they reported much better treatment. They were arrested last August on charges of espionage, but Iranian officials dismissed the charges against them last month, saying the documents which lead to their arrest had been forged. Mrs. Coleman said cheerfully, "Our great hope is to get back again. Our feeling towards the Iranians has not changed one iota . " Paris Six years ago, ace helicopter pilot Claude Fourcade worked on the Charles Bronson movie "Breakout," which showed "a copter rescuing a convict from prison. Last Friday, it happened for real, as Fourcade' was' forced at gunpoint to land his copter inside France's "inescapable prison," Fleary-Merosis, and take off with two dangerous convicts. Unarmed guards watched in shock as the chopper plucked the two men off the prison soccer field then escaped from the police copters that pursued them. Friday morning, two men hired Fourcade's copter for a trip south, then after 10 minutes in the air pulled guns and told him his wife and daughter were being held hostage. The threat turned out to be a lie, officials said. Hamburg, West Germany Organizers of a massive nuclear power protest march pleaded for a peaceful demonstration here, but despite that, more than 20 people, mostly police, were injured in-jured in scattered fighting around a power plant site. The protest was prompted by the government's govern-ment's decision to start construction on the Brokdorf nuclear plant, to be located on the banks of the Elbe 40 miles northwest of Hamburg. Ham-burg. The demonstration began even before the nation's high court could hand down a ruling banning protests around the area. In some areas, demonstrators hurled rocks, bottles and Molotov cocktails at police standing guard behind the barricades. One officer's clothing caught on fire, and he fell rolling to the ground to snuff out the flames. Manila, Philippines The American government govern-ment wants to test a new venereal disease vaccine, vac-cine, and it thinks a Filipino "sin city" would be just the place. But the Philippine government disagrees. A local paper reports that U.S. officials went to test the drug on the hostesses in Olongapo, a village of girlie bars and nightclubs located near Subic Naval Base. But national Health Minister Enrique Garcia has attacked the use of the vaccine which has not been approved by the Yanks' own Food and Drug Administration. NATIONAL Washington The Reagan Administration launched a massive diplomatic offensive against Cuba, which it said was orchestrating a massive arms shipment to leftist guerrillas in El Salvador. Also, the national Security Council is planning to send 30 additional no-combat military advisers to El Salvador, which would bring the total in that country to 55. A six-man naval crew already has arrived to help the Salvadoran coast guard, but government officials of-ficials say their duties will be restricted to repairing engines and radar. The former U.S. ambassador to that country, Robert White, told a Congressional subcommittee subcommit-tee that the left-wing terrorists movement in El Salvador is crumbling, and warned that U.S. aid would only backfire, causing a right-wing coup. Sacramento, California The state's school system is being sued for not teaching "creationism" along with Darwin's theory of evolution as explanations for the origin of man. A superior court judge Monday cleared the way for a non-jury trial by refusing to dismiss a' suit brought by fundamentalist Kelly Segreves, who has sued on behalf of his three school children. Segreves contends there is a scientific body of evidence supporting the Biblical account of creation. , Epping, New Hampshire A lagoon filled with nearly 1 million gallons of toxic waste came close to overflowing this weekend under a pouring rain. EPA rescue workers gathered around the site, using shovels, backhoes, and a large crane to add dirt to the 8-foot-high retaining wall around the lagoon. The man-made lagoon at Keefe Environmental Environmen-tal Services is the largest chemical storage lagoon in the country, according to owner Paul Keefe. He said he built the structure big in 1979 because the EPA recommended it as a good way to handle waste products. EPA officials are using an enormous mobile filtration machine called The Blue Goose to lower the lagoon level. The machine can pump and treat about 150 gallons an hour. Hollywood, California Comedienne Carol Burnett is suing the "National Enquirer" newspaper for $5 million in a court case eagerly watched by other Hollywood stars who feel the supermarket publication has unfairly slurred them. Burnett is suing for an "Enquirer" item four years ago that claimed that she was drunk, argumentative, and disorderly in a Washington restaurant in the presence of Henry Kissinger. Burnett said that the entire report is false, except ex-cept for the fact that she was in the restaurant and did meet Kissinger. She has refused out-of-court settlements with the paper, which later retracted the news item. New York The lawyer for the! country's youngest bank robber called his client "a victim of television and a broken family." The 9-year-old boy, identified only as Robert, entered a bank in Rockefeller Center with a toy gun last Thursday, told a teller, "This is a hold-up," and left with $118. The attorney, Mel Sachs, said the boy was just playing and was very Surprised when the money was given to him. Robert used the money Tor burgers'anctfries", a musical watch and a ticket to a Goldie Hawn movie. When he gave the remaining money to his father, the family contacted Sachs, who accompanied accom-panied the boy as he turned himself in to the FBI last Friday. New York An efficient alarm system and a capable air traffic controller kept an Argentine jet from slamming into the World Trade Center. Federal officials disclosed the incident, which happened two weeks ago on a Friday evening, when the 707 jet dipped down into heavy fog, setting set-ting of an alarm system that showed it was flying at 1,500 feet, half the required minimum. An air controller ordered the plane to "Climb! Climb, immediately!" At about that time, the plane was but a minute and 15 seconds away from the north tower of the Trade Center . Salt Lake City Republicans may control the Utah Legislature, but they needed bodyguards around the Capitol Building Friday, as some 6,000 construction workers jammed the building to protest the repeal of a law which requires the payment of prevailing wages on public works projects. Democratic legislators welcomed the demonstration. demon-stration. "You re-elected them," warned Rep. Roger Rawson, D-Hooper. "Don't do it again. They won't change." Referring to the GOP legislators, Sen. Frances Farley said, "One third of those men are millionaires. They don't care." Republican Rep. Mac Haddow, who sponsored the bill, was given a protective white hard hat by Democratic colleague Jeff Fox. New York It was a good night for chubby singers. Christopher Cross, who said that he still sings like a girl, swept the Grammy awards, winning best record, best album, best song, best new artist, and best instrumental arranger. Cross overcame popular nominees Frank Sinatra and Barbra Streisand, who won a Grammy for her "Guilty" duet with Barry Gibb. Other winners included Rodney Dangerfield (best comedy album), Bette Midler and Kenny Loggins (best pop vocalists), Billy Joel and Pat Benatar (best rock vocalists), and Roy Orbison and Emmylou Harris (best country duet). San Francisco Kris Fong-Moseley, a.k.a. Karla Fong-Moseley, a.k.a. Karl Fong-Moseley, says he was victimized by the doctor who made him a woman and the bussinessman who let his sperm die. Moseley began life as Karl, but, diagnosed as a transsexual, he had gone under the knife to become Karla. Meanwhile, he had deposited sperm in a private depository for the sake of his common law wife, who wanted the option of having children someday. But equipment failure destroyed the sperm, and now Karla, who currently is called Kris, is suing the bank. "I consider myself a man," she (?) he (?) says. "I've always been attracted to women." But physiologically, Mosely now is a eunuch. |
