The weather in a word... 'lt's nasty'

By SCOTT WILLIAMS Associated Press Writer A powerful storm “as intense as storms get in the Pacific” blitzed parts of California, Oregon and Washington today with gale-force winds, snow and rain after a blizzard buried the Midwest under more than 26 inches of snow, stranding holiday travelers and shoving temperatures to record lows. Forecasters in northern California said “all but the largest ships should remain safely in port until seas subside,” and warned of predawn winds gusting over 55 mph and seas running up to 35 feet. “The storm is about as intense as storms get in the Pacific,” forecaster Dale Goudeausaid. As much as a foot of snow was expected to fall today on the Cascade Mountains of Washington and Oregon. Eight deaths on Sunday were blamed on traffic accidents caused by the weather. Or. Sunday, snow- fell from the central Rockies to the western Great Lakes and from Oklahoma to the Canadian border. Records for low temperatures were set in several states. Billings, Mont., recorded a temperature of 20 below- zero early today, 18 degrees lower than the previous record low for the date. In Kansas City, Mo., the 90-year-old record cold temperature for the date of 7 degrees was broken by 4 degrees. Forecasters predicted wind chills to 40 below zero early today for eastern Kansas. Meanwhile, record highs in the 80s were

Chiropractic science recognizes that a properly functioning body is a healthy body. Whenever poor health prevails, the chiropractor treats the condition by locating and correcting the cause. All muscles, organs and glands of the body need a constant supply of nerve energy. If nerves are pinched or irritated, the supply of nerve energy will be cut off from some part of the body, which will be unable to function normally. Pain and/or poor health are the result. Chiropractic is also effective for the prevention of health problems. Phone for an appointment.

set Sunday in Apalachicola and Pensacola, Fla. and a tornado in Alabama toppled trees, damaged buildings and injured three people in Blount and Etowah counties, police said. In lowa, the storm had dumped 16.5 inches of snow on Dubuque by 5 p.m. Sunday, 11 inches at Waterloo and Des Moines, and 9 inches at Mason City and Marshalltown. “It’s a bona fide blizzard,” said National Weather Service meteorologist Gary Forster in Des Moines. “It’s really dangerous. People don’t realize how the cold affects you.” Winter storm warnings for snow and wind gusts near 45 mph overnight extended for eastern South Dakota, western lowa, and parts of Illinois and lower Michigan. Winter storm watches issued today for a large chunk of the nation from Utah into western New York. In Michigan’s upper Peninsula, at least 26 inches of new snow fell Sunday on Houghton, 22 inches fell in Marquette, Sault Ste. Marie received 19 inches and 15 inches fell at Escanaba, the weather service said. “In a word, it’s nasty,” state trooper Dave Lemkee said Sunday in Iron Mountain, Mich. “It’s hard to say how much snow we have because it keeps drifting. We had one person drive from Green Bay, (Wis.), about 100 miles away, and it took him four hours.”

Ready to build a space station

CAPE CANAVERAL. Fla. (AP) - The space-walking steeplejacks of shuttle Atlantis constructed and moved around by hand a 45-foot tower and a large pyramid with such ease that they declared themselves ready to “go build a space station.” Project officials on the ground agreed, saying that during space walks on Friday and Sunday, Jerry Ross and Sherwood Spring had demonstrated without a doubt that humans can build things in orbit. “What we have here is a large amount of data...which should be of great use in scoping out and designing the tasks that will be required to put together a space station and other large structures in orbit,” one of the officials, David Akin of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, said Sunday night.

Israel makes conditional spy affair apology

JERUSALEM (AP) promised to seek out and punish any official who may have recruited a U.S. Navy ( analyst as an Israeli agent, and apologized to its most powerful ally for any wrongdoing in the spy scandal. The conditional apology, issued Sunday in the name of Prime Minister Shimon Peres, was delivered to U.S. Ambassador Thomas Pickering in hopes of defusing the controversy over the case of Jonathan J. Pollard, officials said. Pollard, a 31-year-old American Jew, was arrested by the FBI on Nov. 21 and accused of selling military secrets to Israel for $50,000 over the past 18 months. His wife, Anne Henderson-Pollard, 25, was arrested the next day and charged with

The six men and one woman aboard Atlantis were to pack up their experiments and test the ship’s flight control systems today in preparation for returning to Earth on Tuesday at the end of their weeklong mission. Landing will be at 4:35 p.m. EST at Edwards Air Force Base, Calif In the afternoon they planned to look for Halley’s comet and to tell of their experiences at a news conference, answering questions from U.S. and Mexican reporters at the Johnson Space Center in Houston. Mexico’s first astronaut, Rodolfo Neri, is aboard Atlantis. During 6 hours 41 minutes in Atlantis’ open cargo bay on Sunday, Ross and Spring assembled a four-story metal tower and a 12-foot pyramid from aluminum struts, practiced repair tasks on them and,

26 defendants are ruled innocent of Aquino death

MANILA, Philippines (AP) Three civilian judges ruled Monday that armed forces chief Gen. Fabian C. Ver and 25 other defendants were innocent of all charges in the assassination of opposition leader Benigno Aquino. Their decision said the killer was Rolando Galman. The court ordered the release of all defendants one civilian. About 100 angry demonstrators outside the courtroom pounded on metal lamp posts as three court clerks, over a period of more than two hours, read the verdict clearing all defendants of double murder charges in the deaths of both Aquino and Galman, an alleged communist agent. “It is safer to err in acquitting than in punishing.” the court said. It said acts attributed to Ver, who had been accused of covering up what the prosecution con-

unauthorized possession of national defense documents. The uproar over Pollard’s arrest has strained ties between Washington and the Jewish state. On Saturday, President Reagan, though not mentioning Israel by name, said the United States would “root out and prosecute the spies of any nation.” The Israeli government announcement fell short of a full admission of guilt, but said any activities of its agents directed against the United States “was wrong, and the government of Israel apologizes for it.” Secretary of State George P. Shultz said the United States was satisfied with the statement, according to State Department spokesman Pete Martinez.

like weightlifters, held them high over their heads to show how easy they could maneuver them Television views showed Spring holding the tower at its midpoint. He appeared like a toy figure playing with a metal framework many times his size, but he moved it and controlled it easily. “This is a piece of cake," Spring said as he hoisted the tower to which the astronauts attached a large American flag. “There are so many good places to grip that it’s easy to stop any motion.” “It feels very easy," said Ross as he took his turn holding the tower. “I can go wherever I want to with it.” At one point, Ross laughed and said, “Let’s go build a space station. We’re ready.”

tended was a military conspiracy, were “not indicative of mischief.” The verdict was carried live on both government and private television networks. "Thank God, it’s all over,” Ver said as he left the courtroom. Asked if he was ever in doubt of the verdict, he replied: “Never, because there was never any cause for accusing me or indicting me.” Aquino’s widow, Corazon, said President Ferdinand E. Marcos was her “No. 1 suspect.” “Since he was not even mentioned, it was not of too much concern whether one or all would be acquitted,” she said. An attorney opposed to the Marcos government, Joker Arroyo, said on television that the verdict was “condemnable.”

“We think this is an excellent statement, and we are satisfied by it and we welcome it,” Martinez quoted Shultz as saying. Shultz was on his way to Cartagena, Colombia, for a meeting of the Organization of American States. "We have full confidence in Israel’s determination and ability to pursue this case down to the last detail and to bring those responsible to account,” Shultz was quoted as saying. The Israeli statement, released after a Cabinet meeting, pledged to punish those responsible and “completely and permanently dismantle” the intelligence unit to which Pollard reportedly supplied information if charges against him prove to be true. The statement did not identify the

1,500 journalists say they have 'write stuff' for space shuttle trip

COLUMBIA. S.C. (AP) - Walter Cronkite, Ted Koppel and Tom Brokaw have not applied to be the first journalist in space, but Alita H.T Dickerson has. “It’s time to get an old girl up there and let her try it out,” says the 82-year-old former publisher of a weekly newspaper in Smackover, Ark., of her bid to fly aboard the space shuttle in September. "I’ll sure try to go through with it if they give me a chance. I have a broader view of life.” Mrs. Dickerson, who now lives in an apartment in Pomona, Calif., is one of more than 1,500 journalists seeking the ultimate out-of-town assignment, the opportunity offered by NASA to fly on a space shuttle mission and report the experience. Albert Scroggins, dean emeritus of the University of South Carolina School of Journalism, who has been called on to help pick the best candidate, said excellent people have applied so far. The project is being administered for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration by the Association of Schools of Journalism and Mass Communication headquartered at the university. Formal applications for the post are being mailed out this week to people who have shown interest. CBS News, for example, has asked for 50. Cathy Franz, who handles some of the incoming calls for applications, said everyone wants to know if

Plate f uII of leftovers to greet congressmen

WASHINGTON (AP) Congress is returning from a weeklong Thanksgiving break with a plate full of leftovers, from a budget-balancing measure to the 1985 farm bill, and just two weeks left before its scheduled adjournment for the year. Also high on the legislative menu as the 1985 session winds to a frenzied close are spending bills, trade issues, farm credit and the matter of how much money political action committees should be able to give to candidates for Congress. Still in limbo is the budget-balancing legislation aimed at wiping out federal deficit spending by 1991. House and Senate negotiators have been meeting for more than a week already on the bill, originally written by Sens. Phil Gramm, R-Texas, and Warren Rudman, R-N.H The conference recessed for Thanksgiving on Nov. 22 with both sides expressing optimism that action would come before Congress winds up its work for the year. Language specifying how the bill’s automatic spending cuts would work, and what programs would be affected, still has to be given final approval by both chambers.

While here in Indiana we haven't seen the sun much the past month, Californians are trying to block it out with a new craze-sunglasses for their car windshields. The large cardboard glasses are designed to deflect the sun's rays out of the car and keep the dashboard from cracking. On the reverse side in large letters are the words "Need Help! Call Police," which can be used as an emergency road sign. (AP Wirephoto).

But Israeli officials who spoke on condition of anonymity said the civilian Navy employee was working for a secret department of the Defense Ministry founded about 20 years ago to conduct industrial espionage, but which was recently expanded to include military spying. Accounts published by U.S. newspapers and confirmed by officials identified Rafael Eytan as head of the department which used scientific attaches in the United States as conduits. Eytan, a adviser on terrorism to former Prime Ministers Menachem Begin and Yitzhak Shamir, continued to head the unit although he left the prime minister’s office after Peres took office in September 1984.

Cronkite has applied and whether the competition is skewed toward the broadcast or print media. No, he hasn’t, she said. And no, it isn’t. There is no age limit placed on the applicants, and the only requirements are that they must be U.S. citizens, have the backing of their employers, have at least five years experience as journalists and pass a minimal physical that would not automatically exempt someone who wears glasses or a hearing aid, Scroggins said. “We are interpreting the term ‘journalist’ broadly to include reporters, editorial columnists, broadcasters, photo journalists and editorial cartoonists,” he said. “There’s only one seat, but at the same time we’re trying to find someone who can write well and who also will be articulate in broadcasting back to earth. There are a lot of people who can do that,” Scroggins said. The journalist ultimately selected for the flight will have to agree to be a pool reporter sending reports to all other institutions besides his own for 30 days after returning from space, but Scroggins said he realizes the person will probably keep a diary and write a book later. The applications must be submitted by Jan. 15. Five regional panels will judge them, and the names of eight finalists from each section of the country will be sent to NASA headquarters in Washington.

The Senate faces the issue of PAC giving first when it resumes work, with a vote scheduled for Tuesday. Sen. David Boren, D-Okla., is pushing for new limits on such special-interest financing of campaigns and calls the matter a test of the chamber’s conscience. “This is the first Senate vote that squarely faces the issue of whether PACs are a problem,” says Boren, who himself accepts no money from the committees. His bill would limit House PAC contributions to SIOO,OOO per candidate in each election cycle, with Senate limits ranging from $175,000 to $750,000 depending on the state’s population. Another House-Senate conference is expected to open this week on the 1985 farm bill, which will set the nation’s food and agriculture policy through the end of the decade. President Reagan has threatened to veto the measure if costs of farm subsidies are not curbed, but both the House and Senate versions that will be before negotiators are far above both administration and congressional spending targets.
