AP - An airport policeman and a would-be hijacker were killed in an attempted hijack at Balti-more-Washington International Airport Friday morning, according to police sources at the airport. The FBI confirmed that there was an attempted hijack but did not provide any details. The incident reportedly occurred shortly before 7 a.m. EDT. Two other persons, including a Delta Airlines copilot, were injured, according to the airport police source. North Arundel Hospital in Anne Arundel County said it was treating two persons for gunshot wounds.

He may he short, hut he’s still a man

By Abigail Van Buren « l»74 By Chicago TriDune-N. Y. News Synd., Inc. DEAR ABBY: My 19-year-old daughter is getting married in the spring. We are planning a large formal wedding which will take place in our synagog. All the girls in the wedding party are tall, beautiful girls. The problem is on the groom’s side. He wants his 13-year-old brother to be an usher. This brother is very short and looks to be about 11 years old. I am afraid if he’s an usher he will ruin the wedding. I certainly don’t want to cause any trouble between our families over this, but don’t you think since we are going to a lot of expense to make this wedding perfect in every detail, we are within our rights to suggest they don’t have this boy in the wedding party? I just know everyone will laugh because he will look like a midget. PROBLEM IN BROOKLYN DEAR PROBLEM: If you are Jewish, you should know that a 13-year-old male is considered a man, no matter how short he is. Let the groom select his own ushers and keep your lip zipped. DEAR ABBY: I'm no kid. I’m 36 and a divorcee. Howie is 40, also divorced. We’ve been seeing each other regularly for six months and have a beautiful relationship. He is the man I’d like to spend the rest of my life with, but there is one problem. He doesn’t mention marriage, and very carefully avoids saying: “I love you.” He says: “I care for you, I adore you,” and ‘‘You’re the greatest,” but he won’t say those three little words,! want to hear most. I say: “I love you,” to him, but he still won’t say it to me. There must be a reason for this. How do you interpret it? LOVES HEM DEAR LOVES: Howie is carefully avoiding the commitment that usually accompanies an admission of “love.” After a man says: “I love you,” repeatedly, most women expect to hear: “Will you mam me?” Howie could be allergic to orange blossoms. Before you invest any more time in the relationship, if that’s what you have in mind, ask him.

Teen Rapists Face Life Term Plus 20 Years INDIANAPOLIS AP-Two Indianapolis teen-agers convicted in the kidnap-rape of a Indiana University Medical Center therapist face sentences of life terms plus 20 years in prison. The defendants, Floyd E. Tew'd!, 18, and Anthony White, 17, both were convicted of kidnaping and rape after a Marion County Criminal Court jury deliberated three hours Thursday. The trial was the first jury trial argued by a team of special women prosecutors, Susan R. Porter and Patricia Gifford, assigned by the Marion County prosecutor to try rape cases. The kidnaping charge carries an automatic life sentence. The youths could have received an additional 30 years in prison on the rape charge but the jury recommended 20

years.

Judge Harold H. Kohlmeyer ordered a presentence investigation and set sentencing for 9:30 a.m. March 12. Mrs. Porter said she hoped the verdict would “encourage women not to be hesitant in reporting such attacks.” “The only way we can keep them from increasing is to keep these kind of people off the streets,” she said Mrs. Porter said an all-woman prosecuting team might be more effective in rape cases because victims are more likely to discuss all details of the case with members of their own sex than with men. The verdict she said, seemed to confirm this opinion. Solzhenitsyn In Route To Norway COPENHAGEN, Denmark AP-Alexander Solzhenitsyn arrived here early today, presumably on his way to Norway. He is believed to be looking for a place in Scandinavia to settle with his family. The Oslo newspaper Aftenposten said the exiled Soviet writer was expected to take the ferry from Copenhagen to Oslo, arriving there Saturday morning. The report said he would visit painter Jakob Weidemann at his mountain home near Lillehammer. Oslo papers suggested that he might rent the home near Lillehammer of the late Sigrid Undset, like Solzhenitsyn a winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature. Solzhenitsyn left Zurich by train Thursday after the Norwegian Foreign Ministry said it had granted him a threemonth tourist visa. Prime Minister Trygve Bratteli said last week that the author would be welcome to make his home in Norway. Hans Joergen Lembourn, president of the Danish Writers Association and a Conservative member of parliament, greeted Solzhenitsyn in his train compartment. Lembourn said Thursday night that Solzhenitsyn had asked about the political and literary climate in Denmark and whether he could be granted asylum in the country. Solzhenitsyn said after his expulsion from the Soviet Union that his family would not leave Russia until he found a home for them. He said he didn’t want his wife and their

The admiral said Ehrlichman, formerly President Nixon’s domestic affairs adviser, wound up a White House plumbers unit investigation into the press leaks by presenting him with “a prepared statement on White House stationery for my signature." Reg Murphy Releosed By BILLIE BROWN Associated Press Writer ATLANTA£ Ga. (AP> — Atlanta Constitution Editor Reg Murphy, ransomed by his newspaper for $700,000, returned home unharmed Friday night and said of his kidnapers, “It’s important for them to know they didn’t win a big victory." “They frightened me very badly. They frightened my family," Murphy told a crowd of newsmen and neighbors at his two-story brick home 50 hours after he had been abducted. Murphy was kidnaped Wednesday night by men who said they were members of the “American Revolutionary Army,” an apparently rightwing extremist organization unheard of before the kidnaping. With his arms around his wife and two daughters, Murphy said, “I’m all right. I don’t feel very good. I’m kind of shaky.” “You saved my life today," he told newsmen, referring to the relay of messages from his newspaper to the kidnapers via radio and television. “Before I was so rudely interrupted, I used to say this ought to be a civilized country,” Murphy said. “1 still think this ought to be a civilized country. The people who think like this are going to have to use some other tactics because this won’t win them many friends.” Less than three hours before, Jim Minter, the managing editor of the Constitution, drove an open jeep in cold, windy weather to the end of state highway 400, a limited access highway which ends in a lonely area near Alpharetta, a town about 30 miles north of Atlanta. He carried the $700,000 ransom packaged in plastic bags inside two suit cases. He went alone. “When 1 arrived there was a car in front and a car in back of me,” Minter said. He said there were two men in one car and a single man in the other. He said they were not disguised but he did not get a look at their faces. He said he dropped the money beside the highway and left. The FBI had little immediate comment. “Our efforts so far have been directed toward getting Mr. Murphy back safely,” said Special Agent Richard Hamilton. “And we have no further comment at this time.” Kissinger Out If Nixon Impeached

DEAR ABBY: Recently a massage parlor opened up in our town. It’s strictly for men, but they get worked over by women—mostly young and pretty, or so I’m told. Now, why should we women sit home steaming, and wondering what we can do to combat this sort of thing? I wonder why some brilliant woman doesn’t open up massage parlors for women only, and have young, goodlooking men there to work the women over? The same idea could be applied to “girlie shows” where the men flock. What would be wrong with having places where women could go and look at men’s beautiful bodies? FAIR PLAY DEAR FAIR PLAY: Your “idea” is already a reality in many cities. But for some strange reason it hasn’t enjoyed the success of its female counterpart. Hate to write letters?

You ruff of course and, being a careful declarer, note that there is no way of losing the contract unless the diamonds are divided 44). Even in that case you can make the grand slam if you play the suit correctly. Thus, if West has the J-SMM, you can lead the king and finesse the ten to nullify his diamonds, while if

East has the J-94-4, you can lead the ace first and in that way trap them. Your real problem, therefore, is to learn which opponent, if either, has the four missing diamonds. This is not a difficult chore to perform if you go about it the right way. You start by drawing three rounds of trumps, noting that West started with three hearts. You then play the ace of spades, West following suit, at which point the proper method of play becomes crystal-clear.

So, if anyone has four diamonds, it must be East Accordingly, you play a low diamond to the ace, West showing out, and continue with the ten from dummy. When East covers with the jack, you win with the king, lead a low spade to the carefully preserved queen and play another diamond, this time trapping East’s nine to bring home the grand slam. Note that, if you start the diamonds by leading the king from your hand, the grand slam goes down the drain.

MEXICO CITY (AP) - Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger says he probably would submit a courtesy resignation if President Nixon were impeached or resigned according to Sen. Gale W. McGee. But both McGee and Kissinger himself denied a story in the Washington Star-News on Thursday that Kissinger had said he could not conduct the foreign policy of the United States if Nixon were impeached or resigned story “nonsense.” McGee, a Wyoming Democrat, said the subject of impeachment came up during a general discussion on a flight he made to Panama earlier this month with Kissin^r. The senator said he told Kissinger: “we would certainly urge Vice President (Gerald R.) Ford, if he should assume the presidency, to keep his continuity.” Indiana To Get

WASHINGTON (AP)-In-diana will receive an additional 13.27 million gallons of gasoline under new allocations ordered by the Federal Energy Office on Friday night. The increased gasoline supplies total more than 326 million gallons for February to 26 states and the District of Columbia. Indiana, with a basic available supply for February of 166.4 million gallons, had previously been assigned an increase of 3.33 million gallons. The further increase will push Indiana’s additional allocation to 16.6 million gallons.
