Hoofs and Paws
By Marloo C. Crawford
Melgo Ceuuty
Humaue Society
You know, every once In awhile,
we get a type or breed of dog and for
two or three weekB that is the type or
breed that keeps showing up needing
homes . Most recently we had a nm
on Manchesters - with several being
abandoned almost at the same Instant -two with litters of puppies .
Now that is the word that has
come up most often this past three
weekB - puppies. We are up to our
ear lobes in them and I wonder if all
those m001 dogs were trying to
provide loving Christmas presents
(thanks
to their
owners'
carelessness ) to different families .
So - for those of you who have
acquired puppies and for those of
you who will be contacting us after
reading this article - it is time to
remind a few of the proper
procedures in dealing with little
delicate puppies .
First, be very careful of children
handling these little animals. They
shouldn \ be squeezed or handled too
much because they can be Injured so
easily! The same thing goes for little
kitties . They should be provided with
a nice warm, dry place to call their
own - where they can go to have
their required "many" naps .
They should be fed often while
small and a most important fact for
those of you who are Intending to
make your new puppy a "house
dog ."
The times when you can be the
surest of laking them outside when
the urge will be there is immediately
upon them waking from a nap and
right after you have fed the puppy .
Kittens should be shown where
their litter box is right away and
they are smart -they will go diretly
there when the urge hits them.
If you are paper training your puppy it is smart to acquire a very large
box in which haU of it should be its
bedding and the other half or quarter should be layers of papers .
A puppy will 'normally not use its
own sleeping area for anything other
than sleeping - so it soon identifies
the paper with "the place to head
for ."
As the puppy groll(s a little and you
feel it can be trusted - take It from
its box and right to the area where
you will be putting its papers from
then on- it may have to be reminded
once in awhile with a little tap with a
folded paper and then canied to its
spot -but it doesn \ lake long before
both the yoWlg puppy and the little
kitten know exactly what to do and

'Neither party' the choice
By Robert Wallen!

WASHINGTON (NEA) - The good
news for Republican party loyalists
is that the GOP appears to have
recovered fnm the damage inflicted
by the Watergate scandal.
The bad news is that the party 's
support among rank-filld-lile voters
still hasn 'I returned to the levels enjoyed by the GOP in the 19509 and
early 19609, when 25 to 30 percent of
all voters identified themselves as
Republicans.
Those figures dipped down to the
211-25 percent range in the late 196&amp;
and early 1970s- but the party dldn \
reach the nadir of Its popularity unW
late 1974, after Republican President Richard M. Nixon resigned in
disgrace.
In a nationwide public opinion
survey completed only four months
after Nixon was forced out of office,
oo.ly 1B percent of those questioned
identified themselves as
Republicans .
Market Opinion Research, the
highly respected Detroit-based
survey researeh firm thst conducted
the 1974 poll for the GOP, has just
completed another survey that
shows 22 percent of those questioned
labeled themselves RepubliC8llll.
More encouraging to party officials are the shifts in voter attitudes in response to questions
about which of the two major
political parties could best handle
specific problems or issues.
For example, those surveyed in
1974 chose the Democrats by a 3!1-19
margin wben asked which party
would do the best job in controlling
government spending. In the new
poll, the situation is aL"Jlost revened, with the Republicans preferred
by a 3!1-22margin .
Public opinion on controlling infla tion went from 43-12 Democratic in
1974 to 33-25 Republican this year . In
the issue of reducing unemployment, the Democrats currently are
oreferred by a 39-IB margin , but in

Today in history
Today is Tuesday, Dec . 18, the
352nd day of 1979. There are 13 days
left in the year.
Today 's highlight in history :
In 186:i, the 13th Amendment to the
Constitution was adopted, abolishing
slavery .
r :"r
On this date :
In 1777, George Washington 's
troops went into winter quarters in

Valley Forge, Pa.
In 17B7, New Jersey became the
third state to ratify the Constitution.
In 1903, the United States and
Panama fonnallied a treaty placing
the Canal Zone in American hands 1n
perpetuity, for an annual rent.

i974 the split was a far wider 54-.'1 in
favor of the Democrats.
Probably the most intriguing
results rl the just-completed survey
illustrate the extent to which an increasingly sophisticated and cynlcal
electorate believes neither party is
capanble c:t resolving contemporary
problems.
'1'!-~ survey dldn, offer ' 'neither
party" as a choice, but 18 percent
volunteered that answer when asked
which party could control inflation,
while 21 percent gave the same
answer on the issues rl insuring adequate energy suppUes and holding
down tales.

vulnerability'~
"He 'II peak on the day he announces his candidacy," was a
favorite tine rl cynlcs when asked
earlier this year about Sen. Edward
M. Kennedy's chances for capturing
the presidency.
There may have been considerable validity in that observa tion. In the weeks following the
Massachusetts Democrat's declara tion rl his candidacy, the ground swell of support some backers had
expected has not materialized.
William E . Brock ill, chainnan of
the Republican National Committee,
says that in October and early
November, just before Kennedy
entered the race, the GOP was having trouble recruiting candidates for
seats in state legislatures and other
posts, especially in the Northeast.
"There was concern that the
(Republican) candidate might face
an i.rnpo&amp;ible task " when running
against a Democratic ticket headed
by Kennedy , says Brock. But that
problem now has "diminished considerably" and Brock believes Kennedy •'may be an extremely
vulnerable candidate." Hooray for
WI !
After years of talking about the
energy crisis, Americans finally are
doing something about it. Unofficial
but reliable statistics for the flnt
nine months of the year show a
significant reduction in gasoline consumption.
Some of the decrease can be traced to the gasoline shortage last spring In both May and June, for ell8mple, consumption of gasoline was
more than 750,000 barrels per day
lower than during the comparable
months in 1978.
But in the July-August-September
third quarter rl 1979, when supplies
were again plentiful, coosumption
was down almost 500,000 barrels per
day, a reduction c:t close to 6.5 percent compared with the same period
in 197B.

Capitol ideas
WASHINGTON (AP) - When
silence is golden, Sen. William
Annstrong confesses his ~uilt.
The Colorado Republican found
himself alone on the Senate noor late
one night last week during the
filibuster over oil tal legislation. But
like a trouper, he continued the
colloquy with nothing to say and
nobody to listen.
"I must confess l am somewhat
perplexed," he said. " I discover that
the chamber is virtually empty, and
I wonder if somehow someone has
circulated the word that I was about
to make a speech at this time."
Annstrong pressed on, " ....if I had
words c:t great wisdom to speak at
this time, which I do not, it would he
in aid ri any known good cause for
me to do so."
Finally Annstrong breathed a
sigh of relief when he saw Bob Dole,
R-Kan ., re-enter the chamber with
Majority Leader Robert C. Byrd of
West Virginia. Their mutual arrival,
he suggested, surely meant that a
backstage compromise had been
reached on the logjam.
But Dole dashed his hopes . "We
came from different directions, "
said the Kansas senator.
At that, Armstrong could take no
more. " Mr. President, I am left
speechless, ·• he said. Byrd then had
to order a quorum call the keep the
session going.

The term "D&amp;C " carne up during
the House debate on an abortion
amendment and left Rep. George E.
Danielson, ~Iii . , puzzled. He turned for help to Rep. Tim Lee Carter,
R-Ky ., a pbysician.
" I am a layman," Danielson said.
"What in the world is a DNC? It is
not the Democratic National Committee, I know that."
Amid groans from the galleries,
Carter explained the letters stood
for dilation and curettage, with no
partisan connotations.
House Speaker Thomas P. O'Neill
sununoned his 434 collagues mto
session an hour early. As reporters
awaited the speaker's arrivial for
his pre-4!esslon news briefing, press
aide Gary Hymel entered the office
to apologize.
"The speaker 's still out in the
cold," he said. Seems O'Neill had
forget to mention L'le early start to
his driver.
Rep. Robert E. Bawnan, R-Md .,
was arguing against a spending bill
when he paused to reflect that
"From time to time I have been
characterized in the newspapen as
'the watchdog of the House.'
"U indeed I ever deserved that

WASHINGTON (AP) - An 8 per cent cutback in production rl
automobiles and light trucks ac counted for most of an overall
decline in indUBtrial production of
0.5 percent in November, the gover runent said today .
The drop in indUBtrial production,
which followed an unchanged performance in October, was seen as
evidence rl a weakening economy,
especially in the auto sector.
The Federal Reserve Boord said 8
percent decline in output of autos
and Ught trucks last month reflected
"lower sales and large dealer inventories rl these vehicles."
Auto assemblies were down 20 percent from the pace in the lint half of
the year to 7.2 million units at a
seasonally adjusted annual rate .
Adrop in industrial production has
been expected by most economists,
who believe the economy is entering
a recession .
The consensus among most
ecomollllBts is that the economy will
go into a definite recessioo in the first quarter of 1980 and that it will cootinue until midyear, after which a
slow recovery will begin.
The Federal Reserve said industrial production in November
sWI was 7 percent higher than a year
earlier, although slightly below the
level at the end rl 1978. The board 's
illdustrial production index stood in
November at 151.6 of the 1967
average rl100.

O.K. So you already know that
franchising has been one ol the hottest business operations of the "109.
But do you know what is currently
the hotteat franchise product ?
If you answered burgers, tacos,
photo prints or massages, you're out
of date.
·
It 's the suntan - or, more precisely, technology 's counterfeit of
nature's real thing .
Tanning saloos - establishments
consi8ting of a number of fluorescent lamp-lined booths - are springing up across the country, according to a Wall Street Journal
report . Business for most is brisk to
booming as the public responds to
the appeal of a golden glow without
the bother of all that time and sweat
inthesWI.
BUBiness is even better for a clutch
of companies (with inspired names
on the order of Plan-a-Tan and Tantrifle) doing the franchising . For an
initial fee of $1$,000 and up plUB a
percentageofthegross,theysetan
independent entrepreneur up in
business. And with any business
sense at all and a decent location Wlually a shopping mall - he can
recover his stake in a few months of
operation.
There are, however, some
drawbacks to this rw~h of the paleskinned pubUc to fry itself like franchised chickens. Medical authorities
and the Food and Drug Administra ·
lion, which has new safety regulations pending, are concerned about
excessive exposure to ultraviolet
radiation, the effects of which include wrinkling, premature aging
and potentially cancer.
Actually, aa one critical der matologist points out, for all that a
golden tan may connote affluence
and sophistication it is nothing but
the body's reaction to injury from
ultraviolet radiation. It does nothing
for you -"except maybe aa a status
symbol."
And there you have it - the explanation of the entire phenomenon
if not the bottom tine of the entire

as significant as the trend - the increase in foreign purchases," Bran stool said .
His bill made it through the House
Agriculture and Natural Resources
Conunittee late last month without

The measure drew support from

The bill, is expected to reach the
House floor when lawmakers return
from their holiday recess in
January . It faces an uncertain
future in the Senate, Branstool said.
The central Ohio lawmaker
became aware of the issue when
residents of his district began expressing concern in recent months
that foreign purchases could have an
adverse impact within the farming
community.
·'In my district there was a for e1gn

Branstool said .
The measure prohibits non resident aUens or corporations from
acquiring any interest in any
agricultural property.
It includes land used in the production of crope, Uvestock , poultry, milk
or dairy products, fruit or other horticultural products .
But it also contains exemptions
for, among other things, property
acquired through inheritance or as

and which earlier had changed
education, art and politics, had a lot
to do with it.
''These were new buyers," ex·
plained a real estate analyst. "They
didn't sell one h001e to buy another.
They were brand new demand."
They demanded singles, duplexes,
apartments, mobiles, coops, condoe.
In the decade of the 19709 the
housing stock of the country grew by
15 million units, fr(llllf/.7 million to
82.8 millioo, despite the 1088 of
roughly a half-million old units a
year, mostly in inner cities.
lnflaUon spurred the boom,
among other things forcing renten
to seek a piece rJ. the action, to buy
their own home rather than continue
to pay ever-higher rents. Even the
swinging singiea joined in.
Owning a home, people found, was
indeed a hedge, with median prices
year after year rising more than Innation in general, rlten u much as
25 percent or 30 percent more.

ignoring the action on the

field.
And on the field , Roger Staubach
clicks off his plays, one by one.
·Ignoring the action of the clock .
Time marches on for the rest of us,
but it seems to stand still for
Staubach and the Cowboys .
Some coaches tell their clubs that
to succeed, they must own the last
quarter. Staubach and the Cowboys
have taken that football theorwn a
step farther. They believe , and indeed often prove, that the last two
minutes belong to Dallas.
They did it again Sunday , pulling
out another victory with as brilliant
a twoofllinute drill as you could ever
hope to see. This one waa right off
the dressing room blackboard. It
w&amp;B tutbook football , performed to
perfection by Prof. Staubach.
He has done it before, of course .
Fourteen times in hls career,
Stauhach has tallen Cowboy teams
that were behind in the final two
minutes and marched them to the
winning points . That is a
frightening, almost awesome ability
to ignore the pressure of the clock
and perform small~ miraCles.
One last.gasp touchdown is tough
enough but on Sunday, Staubach
needed two of them to catch
Washington in the waning minutes.
With 3:49 to play and the Redskins
leading 3f-21, Randy White

recovered a flUilble, giving Dallas
the openirlg it needed.
Staubach needed just 89 seconds
for the first touchdown, moving the
Cowboys 59 yards on I h r e epa sse
s , tip ... zip ... zip, dissecting the Redskins · defense like a surgeon
working with a scalpel.
Now , with 2:2ll left , Dallas was
still six points short . Other teams
might have tried an onside kick at
that point, concerned that they
might otherwise never see the foot ball again. But the Cowboys have
confidence in their defense and on
third-and-two Larry Cole stopped
John Riggins cold, forcing the punt.
With l:t61eft, Staubach was at his
25 yard line . This time, the TD drive
took 67 seconds and when Rafael
Septien kicked the extra point, the
Cowboys had the victory and
another NFC East tiUe.
And there were still 39 seconds of
those precious last two minutes to
spare .
Staubach threw 10 passes in the
two scoring drives, each one &lt;Jf them
from the shotgun fonnation , where
he has an extra second or two to
malte each play work .
Now he has the club back in the
playoffs and don' be surprised if
Dallas is the NFC club in Pasadena
on Jan. 20 for Super Bowl XlV . It
would be a fitting climax to what has
been a bizarre year for the Cowboys .

CLEVELAND (AP) - Veteran
baseball player Jorge Orta was due
in Cleveland today to discuss terms
of a contract which would malte him
a member of the Cleveland Indians

Orta is a free-agent after playing
eight seasons with the Chicago
White Sox and compiling a career

Rice said he was present when
Brown fired the remainder of the

CINCINNATI - Homer Rice went
from coach of the Cincinnati
Bengals to an unspecified executive
role with the club as imperturbably
as he coached, resolute in his convictiora that Paul Brown knows

Rice and his entire coaching staff
were fired Monday by Brown, foun ·
der, general manager and former
coech of the Bengals. The club had
finished a second straigtt 4-12
season Sunday with a victory over
the Cleveland Browns, but the
decision already had been made .
'1 knew that something had to be

Brown philosophy since he began

Orta will be accompanied here by
his agent, Richman Bry. The con tract reportedly calls for about $1 .5
million over five seasons.
"We are very close, but haven't
agreed on everything, " said Bry
from his &lt;Jffice in St. Louis.
"Until Orta signs, we have no
deal," said Gabe Paul, president of
the Indians. "I will say we are in a
good position with Orta and
naturally would like to sign him.''
Orta would likely would be used as
a backup to third baseman Toby
Harrah and second baseman Duane
Kuiper and as a designated hitter .

quit after five straight losses.
The Bengals finished last season
by winning three straight games,
and Rice was kept on . Brown was en couraged by the progress, and said
expected the Bengals to move above
the break even mark this season .
"You could have knocked me over
with a feather when we didn' get it
done " Brown said . "No one was
mor~ surprised than I was when we
didn' do well . "
Brown said firing Rice was difficult, but necessary , and that he
"dreaded to get up this morning " to
swing the axe.
"It was kind of obvious something
would be done, " said veteran
Bengals quarterback Ken Anderson.
Anderson said Rice's downfall may
have been hls easy-going nature.
"Maybe that philosophy didn't go
over with some cj the players on this
team,"
Anderson
suggested
diplomatically.
Two days before his final game,
Rice talked a bout the ''nice guy "
image and soft-!!poken style which
aroused the ire of some fans who
said it would lake a firebrand to kick
the Bengals awake.
'1 guess they've hung that 'nice
guy' label on me, but that's me,"
Rice said. '1 've been successful this
way. They're making a lot of fuss

about one year."

years ago. And the kids getting into
fights and my record coUection; and
my older brothers and sislel"!l wbo

girlfriend.
And don't forget two sets ol grandparents who can't stand each other.
This year my oldest sister bas offered to have the reunion at her
houBe. For the first time I won't be a
captive guest. By the time this letter
is printed my folb will have already
left to spend the holidays with her.
They expect me to fly up there on
Christmas evening when I get off
work, bot isn't suffering through :111
ci these things enough already?
Should I tell them the truth : I hate
reunions; cr Hcall in sick" on
December 24] I'd like a quiet
Christmas with my girlfriend, wbo,
thank Gawd, doesn't have relatives
in town. -HENRY
HENRY:
.I'm sure your parents already

professor claimed.
''A parent can explain Ill a child at

this time that Santa is a symbol of
giving and that giving can bring happiness," he said.
"Up WIW that time, children are
pretty much tied up with getting. If
parents then allow the chlloren to
begin to do their own shopping for
presents, It encourages them to take
pleasure In the act ol giving. And
that's what the wbole idea is about

can be told thaI Santa , too, is on a
budget, Rol!elius said.
He explained that If parents 118Y
that Santa bas a lot ol youngsters to
provide lor and that there are Umlts
Ill what be can bring, children won't
get unwarranted expectations.
"Children IDday are much more
a_, ci such limitations anyway,"
1w. ..ald. 'They see the things they
want on TV, and the ads mention
price, 110 the children know thing~~
aren't free . "
Youngslel"ll wbo ask why there are
so many Santas In department
stores can be told ' 'they are j111t
helpel'!l who are dresBed like Santa, "
Roselius said.
'That is a good time to suggest
that the parent is also one ci Santa's
helpers as weD," he said.
"It's right around that age when
they begin to pick up on the fact that
Santa is not real.
"Even so, I think Santa will be
with us quite a number of yeal'!l."

aU right to let children believe In
Santa Claus for as long as they want,
says a Wittenberg University
professor.
"I don 1 think there is any harm
done to children because at one time
they believed in the Santa Claus
myth," according to Roland
Ra6ellus, whose spectalty is child
peycbology.
Some psychologists bad believed
that parents who did not deny the
existence of Santa Claus to their
chlldren were letting themselvea In
for trouble when the youngsters
found out the truth. But Roselius
said recent research shows such
feal'!l are unfounded .
He said boys find out the facts
about Santa Claus earlier than girls
and that the average age of
discovery is about 6 ~ Youngsters
usuaDy find out from their parents
or their piel'!l, or "by figuring It out
for themselves," "-Dus added.

Commission wants feds' Willow Island file
CHARLESTON. W.Va . (AP I Tbe Governor's Commission on
WWow Uland has taken '1ormal and
infOITIIIII" stePB to gain access to a
final portion of. the federal government's investigation of the April1918
cooling lower disaster .
C&amp;rol Reiter, a staff associate with
Ule cornmiMion, said the agency has
filed a request for the so-called in-

veatlgative file under the Fret"'om
ol Infonnation Act, and has written
letters to President Carter In an effort to obtain the infonnation.
During its November meeting, the
cornrntssion questioned federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration and National Bureau cl
Standards representatives about an
NBS report released earlier that
month on the causes ol the tragedy .

But during the questioning, commission members began to realize
that there waa material that OOHA
and ~liS st1ll had not handed over.
Tbe commission voted to go after the
rest.
Flfty-ooe workers died In the
disaster when scaffolding colla.-!

Gasoline prices expected
to increase by 10 percent
NEW YORK !API - Gasoline
prices are climbing again, and
anal)'llts say the coet of pulling up to
the gas pump could be as much as 10
percent higher in the next two moo ths.
Wbolesale gasoline prices have
been raised as much as six cents a
gallon in the last week as major
producers responded to announced,
retroactive crude oil price in-

creases.

But other factors are at work in
the market, including inflation,
Iran's embargo on oil shipments to
the United States and revised government rules on the mark-&lt;Jp gasoline
dealers are allowed, analysts say.
Crude oil price increase expected
to be approved by the Organization
of Petrolewn Exporting Countries
this week could push up prices by as
much !Ill an additional 10 cenlS a

gallon, analysts say, based on reports fr(IJl the OPEC meeting in
Caracas, Venezuela .
The national average price of all
grades ol gasoline currenUy is fi.03
a gallon, according to the Lundberg
Letter.
'"'be brunt of it will hit in
February," said Mark Emond,
editor of the Los Angeles-based
newsletter that covers the gasoline
industry. ·'February ought to be a
nasty month. "
On Monday, Standard Oil Co. of
CaiHomia, which markets under the
Chevron brand name, and En:on
Corp. said they were raising
wholesale gasoline prices 6 cents a
gallon in response to Saudi Arabia's
decision to boost crude prices $6 a 42gallon barrel to $24.
Chevron also rat.!ed the price of
heating oil 6 cents a gallon. Enon
has 81Ul0unced a price increase on
some of its distillate products of 3
cents a gallon.
Since last week, Mobil Corp. and
Texaco Inc. have raised the price ol
a gallon of gasoline 3 cents; Standard Oil Co. of Indiana. 2 to 3 cents;

Radio announcer hospitalized
Radio announcer Pam Eshenaur.
24, Galllpolis, was h""Jlitalized early
today following a break-in at the
studios of. WJEH-WYPC.
According to a report filed by
Gallipolis City Pollee, night an nouncer Eshenaur was found unconaciOWI at approximately S a .m.
this morning by morning announcer
Don Davidson. She was reportedly
taken to Pleasant Valley Hospital
for observation.
Davldsoo told city police he found
Eshenaur lying oo the floor near a
news teletype machine adjacent to
the FM studio. She was reportedly
struck in the head from the rear by
an unknown assailant.
City police report the glass in the
bottom half of the front door of the
station and the glass in an office
door had been broken. Although a

preliminary investigation revealed
nothing missing, a number of desk
drawers and file cabinets were
reportedly opened.

Court Pnds marriages
In Meigs County Common Pleas
Court five marriages were dissolved
and four divorces awarded.
Marriages dissolved were Millis S.
Stone and Thurston Stone, Jr.;
Michael Lee Grate and Debrah Len
Grate ; Avis Jackson and Donald
Jackson; Janice L. Davis, and
James L. Davis; Edward L. Savage
and Amanda 0 . Savage.
Granted divorces were Leta E.
Fetty from Wallace Fetty; Robert
Dennis Council fr(IJl Deborah Lee
Geister Council; Kathy Helton from
Timothy Helton; Lu1a V. Shaffer
from Bonney L. Shaffer.

Chevron, Mobil, Texaco and
Exxon depend heavily on Saudi otl,
and anal)'llls expect Texaco and
Mobil alao to ralae tbeir prices in
respoose to the Saudi move.
MobU 's 3-amt Increase came
before the Saudi action. Texaco
raised prices Saturday but aaid Its
Increase was not related to the new
Saudi crude-oil price.
Neither would comment on plallll
for further price increases.
OPEC-triggered increases will not
be felt at the consumer level for a
few weeks because federal gasoline
price controta require that ol1 companies wait a month before paasing
oo higher costa to conswners.
However, because Saudi Arabia's
33 percent Increase was retroactive
to Nov. I, Chevron was able to rai8e
prices without delay.

coffin In front of the mission 's lron gates and alternated chanting "Death to
America!" with walling verses from the Koran, the holy book of Islam.
But they made no move to breach the gates and enter the embassy c&lt;mpound, where M011lem militants have been holding 50 Americans hostage for
t6 days demanding the U.S. government get Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi
to return to Iran.
The funeral cortege of Hojatoleslam Mohammad Mofateh and his two
bodyguards began at Tehran University, then wound a mile to the bolted embassy gates, surrounded by a sea of chanting and walling people. Four
muBahs, or priests, waving pistols were drawn on an open carriage behind
the cortege.
The beady mixture of religious fervor and militancy climaxed when the
pries13 were passed over the heads of the crowd and mounted the speakers'
platform on the embassy wall. Massive portraits ol Mofateh were carried by
mourners aloog with Islamic flags in black.
Mofateh's 22--year-i&gt;ld son Sadegh declared : "The CIA kills people who are

against the imperialism of America. They killed my father because they
want to change the course of the revolution. " Many ri. the women in the
crowd, all lightly wrapped in black chadors, wept as :;&amp;degh spoke.
Molateh, a close aasociate of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini. and two
bodyguards were assassinated Tuesday at Tehran University, where
Mofateh was bead of the Theology Department.
Khomeini 's ruling Revolutionary Council blamed the CIA and SA VAK, the
ousted shah's secret police, for the assassination. An anonymous caller toid
Iran 's news agency a group called FM Militant was respomible, but the
group had not been heard ol before and most observers thought the call was

a hoax.
Khomeini made a new demand Tuesday for the United States to hand over
the shah, calling Panama an American puppet, and one of his close
associates said he has ordered Ius gunmen to murder the former ruler and
his wife.
"We want the deposed shah from the United States, even though he is no
longer in that country, because he has been sent to an American puppet
COWJtry," Kh&lt;meini told a gro11p who called on him Tuesday at his home in

It was the first time Khomeini made the demand since the ahah and Em·

Khomeini's fanner chief prosecutor, AyatollahSadegh Khalkball, ordered
members ri. a guerrilla organization he heads to Latin America to euc:ute
the shah and his wife, the official Pars news agency reported from Qom.

The bridge will shorten the trip
by nearly an hour for anybody

merchants on both sides of the

mean more traffic coming their

Loans closer
WASHINGTON (API
Federal loon guarantees for
Chrysler Corp., which says it will
go bankrupt without them, are a
step closer with Hoose passage of
a bailout package that calls oo
United Auto Workers to double
their wage concessions to $400
million.
The ailing auto maker's UAW
members would have to approve
that figure, which union
president Douglas Fraser says he
would agree to as the price of the
$1 .5 billioo in loan guarantees.

CARACAS, Venezueta (AP ) - 00
minialers from the Organization ol
Petroleum Eiportilll! Countries met
in secret today seeking to work out a
eoo1promise solutloo on the price
split which has persisted through
their yearend conference.
Sheik Ahmed Zakl Yamani, Saudi
Arabia's ol1 minister and a leader of
OPEC's moderate bloc, held the
Ialka in his hotel suite, a conference
source said.
The moderates are trying to keep
the clficial price cl oil near the $24
per barrel level while Libya, which
already has boosted the price or its
oil to $30 a barrel, has said it would
like to see the base price elevated to
$34.
Today 's is the final session cl the
three-day meeting and officials said
it was possible the conference could
end without agreement, meaning
each member would charge as much
as it can get or thinks prudent.

It would not be the first time the
!~nation

oil cartel failed to reach
agreement
" We've had these differences for
19 years," said one source. "One
time it was Iran which was the
biggest producer, and Iran wanted a
price different from the others. The
price issue, while it seems important
now, in a few years will not be so important as the supply issue."
Humberto Calderon Berti,
Vene:zuela's oil minister , admitted
thai price negotiations had been
"very difficult" since the 13
delegations began meeting Monday.
He said OPEC's economic commissioo had proposed the con·
terence set a base price of $24 to SZi
a barrel and that "it would be good
for OPEC to reach an agreement."
But the issue of how high members
could go over the benclunark price

ministers. Sheik Ahmed Zaki
Yamani of Saudi Arabia called the
issue ''a very serious matter. ''
Traditionally, the quality of. oil
and its distance from markets have
determined how much of a premium
over the benchmark can be charged.
But some OPEC members have
tacked oo surcharges that have left
the old system d price differentials
in disarray . Iran, for instance, used
to charge 11 cents more than Saudi
Arabia for a like grade of oil. At
$28.50 a barrel , Iranian oil now
carries a $4.50 premium.
How much higher the price goe:
depends on the financial health of
the Western importers, and "we 're
worried about the effects of higher
prices on the international
economy," said a source ciose to the
delegation from Saudi Arabia,
OPEC's largest producer and leader
of the price moderates.
The Saudis raised their prices by
l1 percent to $24 a barrel isst week,
50 cents above OPEC's last ceiling
which already had been breached by
a number of other members
charging up $30 a barrel on lmg tenn contracts, and much more on
the spot market.
Hoping to block even greater
hikes, the Saudis said they would
maintain their new price for the first"
quarter ol1980. They were seco nded

Earlier in the year, there were concerns of heating oil shortages th1a
winter. But, under prodding frcm
the government, oil companies
stockpiled large quantities of Ule

making a major effort to conserve.
Seventy-two percent of those

Ten percent are stiU very worried

vary from the opinions of an tbose

For poi1B ol. about 1,600 Interviews,
the results should vary no more than
3 percentage points either way simply because of sample error. That Ia,
if one coold talk to all adults In Ule
country, Ulere ill only one chance out

from the findings cl this poll by more
than 3 pe rcentage points.
Of course, the results oould abo
