"It was for the explicit purpose of overthrowing the government of Nicaragua. Asked if he knew of any specific incidents in which the actions de- scribed in the manual were actually carried out. Mondale replied: "This was a manual that directed people to whom it was adJressed to carry out political assassination, to hire criminals and other illegal acts he said. "Those were the orders and the recommendations of the manual. Somebody has to be sible for that. ' "How much of that in fact happened is information I do not have, he said. Sounding a theme sure to be heard in the nationally televised debate, the Democratic presidential nominee said he believes that the rebel effort in Nicaragua is failing. "The forces in the Sandimsta government are stronger than they were by far four years ago, he said. "If his objective is to overthrow that government, the only way it can be done is through the introduction of U S combat troops.

Hexums Suspect Forced to Leave U.S. WASHINGTON (AP) New Jersey draftsman -has become retired A the fourth person this year to be forced out of the country based on charges of Nazi collaboration or persecution of Jews during World War II, the government announced Friday. Neal M. Sher, head of the Justice Office of Special Inves- Departments tigations, said John Avdzej, 79, left the country rather than face damning evidence" that he persecuted Jews while serving as a regional Byelorussia, mayor in now a republic in the Soviet Union. This departure . . . demonstrates again our governments commitment to pursuing alleged Nazi war criminals and persecutors in this country. Our effort will continue in high gear, Sher said. Avdzej, who lived in Roselle Park, N.J.. left the country in February and renounced his citizenship in Stuttgart, West Germany, on March 2 as part of the deal to avoid legal action. In doing so. he admitted that most of the Jews living in his region of Byelorussia were murdered during d his term as the mayor, Sher said. Avdzej had claimed when he immigrated that he spent the war years as a farmer and tradesman in Vilno, Nazi-installe- "The heart transplant surgery went very well, said Nancy spokeswoman for Pacific Presbyterian Hospital in San Francisco, where Hexums vital organs were removed. Hexums heart was immediately put into the chest of the unidentified man. Mill-hous- e. Ms. Millhouse said the hospital was honoring the recipient's wish that his name be kept secret. She said only that the man was from a Western state other than California. She also said the hospital had a waiting list of "about 300" for cor- neas. adding that she expected them to be transplanted in a matter of days." Hexum's kidneys were shipped to Los Angeles, where doctors were waiting to match them up with potential recipients.

"We have a right to demand that president define very clearly what his objectives are in the war and how he intends to achieve them," Mondale said, adding "It is the time to realize that it is the CIA itself that is in danger." Asked about Reagan administration claims that the CIA manual was assothe work of a relative ciate employee of the agency, Mondale said, "The people of this country cannot elect a minor employee of the CIA or a major employee of the CIA. low-lev- ...

A fifth was deported last year. Those five were the first alleged Nazi war criminals ousted from this country since the special investigation office was established in 1979. Earlier this week, the Justice Department announced that Arthur Ruof the Saturn V dolph, a moon rocket, left the country voluntarily and renounced his U.S. citizenship rather than contest allegations that he worked slave laborers to death while supervising production of the Nazi 2 rocket. Rudolph and Wernher von Braun, who headed rocket research for the Nazis, were among German rocket scientists secretly brought to the United States after World War II in the Armys "Operation Paperclip. Justice Department sources said Friday Operation Paperclip had been preceded by operations called Crossbow and Overcast, also designed to screen for war guilt and bring in the cream of German scientists and engineers. But a whole bunch of former Nazi scientists who ended up working for various branches of the U.S. armed forces are now under investigation . appointment, but often political considerations thwart attempts to pack the court with judges of similar views. Rehnquist referred to President Franklin Roosevelt's 1937 attempt to pack the court in an effort to obtain approval of his "New Deal legislation. which was taking a beating each time it was appealed to the high court. Roosevelt's idea to expand the court from nine to 15 members was voted down by the Senate, then controlled by members of the president's Democratic Party. Rehnquist said other political in in Los Angeles. "I find it very hard to believe that when someone decides to assassinate, a political assassination . . . that they didnt tell someone higher up. They dont keep normal business records, he said. Of Casey, Mondale said, the law requires that the CIA director report on any illegal activities to the House and Senate Intelligence Committees.

The laws are being violated. It is very sermi error which affects the security interest of this country, and they say no one is in charge." terests often divert the president from pursuing Senate approval of his favorite nominee in favor of another candidate assurred of Senate confirmation. Abraham Lincoln appointed five justices but had mixed success because his appointees did not always follow his philosophy after joining the high court. One may look at a legal question differently as a judge than one does as a member of the executive branch," he said. Rehnquist, 60, was nominated to the Supreme Court by Richard Nixon in 1971 and was sworn in in 1972. Of all the justices now on the bench, Rehnquist has remained consistently the most conservative.

Williams has lost a $6 million lawsuit she filed against Milwaukee police, claiming she was fondled and beaten in a 1981 arrest for an allegedly obscene performance by her group the Plasmatics. A jury deliberated about five hours before clearing six police officers named as defendants by the rock singer, her manager, Rod Swenson, former Plasmatics bass player Jean Marie Beaudoir and stagehand Peter Capadocia. Jurors ruled Ms. Williams was not sexually assaulted, that police were within their rights to arrest her and did not use excessive force or violate her civil rights during the Jan. 19, 1981, arrest. Charges against her later were dismissed. David Crosby is being sought by authorities who want to extradite the rock singer from California and hold him in jail while the entertainer appeals a five-yeprison sentence for drug and weapons convictions, a defense attorney says. Lawyer Jay Ethington said that Dallas County prosecutors told him they w'ould charge that Crosby violated the terms of his $8,000 bond when he was arrested last week in California. Crosby was booked on suspicion of illegally possessing a weapon and a drug believed to be cocaine. ar fr Mickey Gilley, was honored Thursday with the 1,789th sidewalk star in the Walk of Fame on Hollywood Boulevard.

The mam contingent of American forces left Leyte for Bataan in January, 1945. The biggest threat to MacArthur's plan, though, came m the first few days and from out in the Leyte gulf. Once MaeArthur had committed himself at Leyte, the Japanese Navy's strategy was set in motion, and it nearly succeeded The main Japanese fleet, under Vice Adm Takeo Kurita, sped up from Singapore In the Philippines the fleet split up, with one detachment ordered to enter the Leyte gulf from the south through the Surigao strait, while the other would slice through the northern San Bernardino strait The two would then converge on MaeArthur s transports, still pouring troops ashore, and the huge guns of the Japanese warships, such as the legendary Yamato and the Musashi. would bombard the beachhead The Surigao strait was guarded by Adm Thomas Kinkaid s Seventh Fleet, while the San Bernardino strait was the responsibility of Adm William Halsey's Third Fleet. Tuesday night, Oct 24. a detachment of Kurita s flotilla, under Vice Adm Teiji Ntshimura. tried to enter the strait, but the Seventh Fleet had it corked The Japanese ships were hit by relentless broadsides from the Seventh Fleet Nishimura's force was wiped out and he drowned Despite the setback the Japanese nearly prevailed Earlier that day a third Japanese flotilla, intended as a decoy, had lured Halsey out of the San Bernardino strait, leaving it wide often for Kurita. who was steaming straight for it. and MaeArthur All that kept Kurita from winning the battle, Manchester writes, was confusion Kurita misread some Amernan aircraft movements and two nits sages for Halsey intereepieri bv the lap, me , New subscriptions, restarts, cancellations and office 1 Mail subscriptions . hilling information ADVERTISING DEPARTMENTS Adv.
