Two carrier-based U.S. fighter jets intercepted an Iranian patrol plane over the vital Gulf of Oman and escorted it back to Iranian air space yesterday, the Pentagon said. Iran claimed the American jets started to shoot at the plane, but the Pentagon said no weapons were fired.
U.S. intercepts Iranian plane
The aerial encounter was the first military confrontation between the United States and Iran since militants occupied the U.S. Embassy in Tehran and took control of the airport.
Meanwhile, a Swiss representative in Tehran was quoted as saying the bodies of eight American killed in last Friday's aborted rescue effort would be returned to Iran.
During a visit to Kuwait, the Iranian foreign minister, Sadegh Gholzath, escaped injury when gunmen in two cars fired at his motorcade. Iran blamed
Master of suspense dead at 80
WARREN S. O'BRIEN of Aluret Hickory, whose movies charmed and terrified audiences for more than 30 years, died of natural causes yesterday at the age of 84.
Hitchcock, who was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II of England last month had been named in healing health for the past year. He was plaugely by the Queen in 2016.
His condition deteriorated during the weekend, and his family was held in his Held Air home, said Herb Steinberg, a spokesman for
I have lost a great friend, and the world has lost a man who made a tremendous contribution to our business," said actor James Stewart, who starred in Hitchcock's "Rear Window," "The Man Who Knew Too Much" and "Verton."
Hitchcock loved to frighten audiences and exercise his talent for creating cillent screen situations. He frequently appeared in his own films for only a

Police chief's resignation urged
WICHTA  The Northwest Task Force was called for Police Chief Richard LaMunyin's resignation after last week's disturbance, which left most than 60
Rev. Warren Campbell, spokesman for the task force, yesterday read a two-page resolution requesting City Manager Gene Denoit to solicit LaMunny's
The resolution stemmed from last Tuesday's clash between 200 black youths and police officers that resulted in 62 persons being injured and 24 arrested.
LaMuny on refused to comment on the request for his resignation, but he said the charges of civil rights violations and excessive force were "totally distorted
If the resolution is not adopted by commissioners, Campbell said, the group will seek improved police policies and expansion of police-community relations legislation.
Task force members announced plans to request a police review board to monitor police actions throughout the city and to approach the Wichita Area Chamber of Commerce about solving the unemployment problem among black youth.
Sludge readied for dioxin tests
AUROHA, Mo—Glass containers of an ink-black sludge were readied yesterday for shipment to a Mississippi laboratory, where they will be tested.
The waste was taken from deteriorating, leading 35-gallon drums buried at the farm of James Denney in southwest Mississippi. Creews wearing special protective suits sampled the waste yesterday, then resealed the drums and recovered them with dirt to await the results of laboratory tests.
The 55-gallon drums were deposited on the Denney farm 10 years ago by a now-defunct chemical company. Denney was paid $150 for allowing the firm, Northeast Pharmaceutical and Chemical Co., to dump the drums in a shallow trenot on his land.
Dixam from the company's heacharperhage-making process later was discovered in waste oil that was spread at horse stables and farms in eastern Missouri in the early 1980s, killing animals and leaving several residents with permanent disabilities to cause cancer, nervous diseases, birth defects and other health problems.
Lawyers seek food stamp funds
TOPKIA - Facing the possibility that federal food stamp funds may dry up in June, a group representing low-income Kansas residents said yesterday it would continue to fund programs.
Roger McCollister, director of Kansas Legal Services Inc., said that unless Congress passed by May 15 to add more money to the food stamp program, low-income families would not be able to receive benefits.
The average household that receives aid from the Food Stamp Program has an income of $283 a month. Under the program, recipients get an average of 0.4 percent of their income.
Because of changes in regulations and an increased use of food stamps because of rising unemployment, this year's food stamp funds will be depleted soon.
Cronkite says no to politics
LOS ANGELES - Walter Crinkerite said yesterday that he was not going to be John Anderson's running mate in Anderson's independent drive for the White House.
The report started with the May 3 issue of New Republic Magazine, which quoted a Clinton as saying that the Illinois Republican congressman had not yet become president.
If he did bif, "I'd be so honored to be asked. I wouldn't turn it down," he quoted as being executive orders from Kendricks. "It would be the right choice for me all my life."
But Cronkite said, "The New Republic reporter has misinterpreted our conversation. I have no interest in entering politics in any capacity. I have never endorsed a political candidate and I have no intention of endorsing a political candidate in the upcoming campaign, including Mr. Anderson."
An Anderson aide said the congressman had not talked with anyone about second place on his ticket.
Marathon title taken from Ruiz
BOSTON - The Boston Athletic Association yesterday stripped Rosie Ruz of her Boston Marathon women's division victory.
Will Clonkey, the race's director, awarded the No. 1 spot to Montreal's Jacqueline Gareau, who accepted Clonkey's congratulations at a news conference.
Clines said the association's investigation showed "beyond any reasonable doubt" that the 2014 Yankees were one prior marathon, did not cover the entire 365-mile, 382-yard Boston race.

The front porch issue was presented by JE Morroff, a co-proprietor of Hawk's Crossing, 12th and Oread streets. Morrow said he planned to submit a paper on the issue, but mediate concern was the fate of beer drinking on the Crossing's front porch.
