Boycott deadline baffles allies
LONDON—Western European governments, under pressure from Washington to join the U.S. sanctions against Iran, expressed puzzelment over a proposal by the EU to impose new sanctions on Iran.
Official sources in most European capitals said they had received no specific date.
Only British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, Carter's most enthusiastic supporter of tough action on Iran, offered quick formal words of support. But
West European leaders planned to consult with their Tehran envoy, who were recalled last week, in anticipation of next Monday's meeting in Luxembourg of European Economic Community foreign ministers. Iran will be discussed then.
The hostages at the embassy in Tehran received a visit yesterday from two representatives of the International Red Cross in an apparent move to Iran by Irak. The bodies of two children were found in Tehran.
The Iranian government agreed to three conditions stipulated by the Red Cross: that its representatives meet with all the hostages, that they be allowed to make a list of their identities and that they be allowed to notify the captives "through telegrams" or by mail, according to a spokesman at the organization's headquarters in Geneva.
Carter said he hoped the visit would not cause U.S. allies to lose sight of the fact that "the point is not whether they are being held in good condition, but that
West Germany favors boycott
West Germany gave President Carter's drive for an international boycott of the Moscow Summer Olympics its strongest endorsement to date yesterday. The U.S. said it would support the boycott.
The announcement, two days after the U.S. Olympic Committee voted to allow the United States to have a major impact on other U.S. allies who have not yet made their decisions.
In Moscow, preparations for the Games continued.
A Soviet spokeler said "the organizing committee is calm preparing for the Moscow Olympics. The decision of the U.S. Olympic Committee will have no effect."
Douglas F. Roby, one of two Americans on the International Olympic Committee, said the nations important to the boycott were Great Britain, France, West Germany, Australia, New Zealand and Canada. Japan is also considered important.
Liberian leader explains coup
The 28-year-old sergeant who is Liberia's new chief of state told his people yesterday that he had President William Tobert assassinated because it was too close to home.
In his first radio and television address since seized power in a pre-dawn coup Saturday, Samuel K. Doe said, "We have come to build a new society, a
Dipolitic sources said Don assured American diplomats in Monrovia, the Liberian capital, that he wanted to maintain the country's traditional goodwill.
U. S. companies, notably Firestone Tire and Rubber, are dominant in the economy of Liberia.
Diplomatic sources said Doe stumped into Morovia's presidential mansion shortly after 1 a.m. Saturday at the head of a 20-man strike force.
The sources said Doe forced his way into the presidential suite where Tolbert and his wife were spending the night after attending a conference of visiting Baptist clergymen. Tobert met the squad in his pajamas and was immediately gunned down, the sources said.
Several other members of Tobert's family are believed to have died in the
court. There was apparently no opposition from any major unit of the security
Doe accused the former leaders of the West African country, founded by freed American slaves, of pedding influence, using their official position for private gain, and taking over houses built for the poor for themselves, their friends "and very often their girlfriends."
Begin wants to speed up talks
WASHINGTON—Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin pledged on his arrival here yesterday for talks with President Carter to try to accelerate the agreement.
I will keep taking as long as possible to complete an agreement and yet indicate that I have been appointed. Amar Sawir, Basit, begin said an administrative council fulfilled Israel's court order, saying:
Sadat, who was in Washington last week for talks with Carter, is pressing for a Palestinian council that would have legislative and executive powers.
Begin's concern is that a powerful Palestinian council could be the first step toward a state bent on subverting Israel and, with Soviet support, threatening

More motorists driving 55 mph
This is about 10 percent more than were obeying the speed limit in the final quarter of 1979.

"Alien," the outer space horror movie, scored for visual effects, winning over such high budget films as "Star Trek," "Black Hole" and "1941."
Verne Craig, KDOT engineer for planning and development, said the average highway speed in Kansas during the first three months of 1900 was 55.7 mph, a mile-per-hour increase from 46.2 mph.
The survey data were gathered through radar checks at 12 locations across
The speed study also revealed a pattern between high-speed and fatal traffic accidents. The study showed that fatalities dropped 3 for every minute of increase in speed.
The federal government has threatened a 10 percent reduction in highway funds if states do not conform to the federal $5-mgh-compliance timetable.
The radar detection units were positioned out of the view of motorists, and monitored both day and nighttime traffic.
Although weather and traffic patterns were not entirely comparable, the state record 155 fatalities during the final quarter of 1979 and only 85 fatalities during the first three months of this year when speeds dropped an average of 10 percent.

Tale of greed, ambition at Inge
By KEVIN MILLS Staff Reporter
Set in the deep South at the turn of the century, Hellman's characters cajole and joyful are a hallmark of the ladder. The play is a bittertsweet social comment on the harsh distinction between gay and homosexuality.

and offers them a business partnership in a proposed cotton mill. The deal is secured with the contingency that the families enough money for the initial investment.
"Hellman said it, according to her book, that he was born Randy Andy Adams, director and Willard, Ohio, graduate student, said yesterday. 'She was really talking about industrialization," she said.
SETTING WILL be minimal because of the unusually strenuous acting that the actors will look like in some film productions. Wright, the costume designer, had spent many hours researching clothing of the actors.
AT THE play's outset, a Northern investor visits two inter-related Alabama families, the Hubbards and the Giddens.
Regina thinks her husband Horace, who is hospitalized with heart trouble, will consent to her being taken home without revealing her greedy intentions but he refuses, unless their marriage falls apart.
After Alexandra leaves for the hospital, Regina's brothers decide they can get to Horace's bank deposits without his consent. They want her to write with the dissolution of dreams andigliagia.
At the play's electrifying conclusion, Amelia frustrates at being a pawn of others' fraternity by being there were people who ate the earth and other people who stood around and watched them eat.
"The play is autobiographical in some ways," Adams said. "When Helen wrote it, she saw herself as Alexandra. And she had an aunt who was a loa like Regina.
"She wrote it as satire, and was really very surprised at how sympathetic audiences were to her characters."
ADAMS SAID he tried to stage the play to use the intimate confines of the Inge theatre to its fullest.
"It's been done in arena with the audience on all four sides," he said. "In the Inge you get involved with a play because you have no choice. It will be interesting for those who have seen the play before on a stage to view it under different circumstances."
"I think it will be a more devastating experience than a promenon production. What I see is a kind of boxing match-gladiator type spectacle."
Characterization, as in all Hellman plays,
all performances of "Little Foxes" are sold out, but some seats will be available on a nightly basis because of cancellations and no-shows. Persons wanting to see the play on a waiting list at the Murphy Hall box office one hour prior to the performance.
City commission agenda varied

A mural in Hobbs Park, 11th and Delaware streets, the future of a Lawrence group for alcoholics and increased loan rates. A Mural in Lawrence City Commission meeting tonight.
The mural project is sponsored by the Lawrence Arts Center and the Parks and Recreation Department. Both groups will present their ideas to the commission,
The groups have said they want to involve the entire community in the project, which would decorate the back of the municipal baseball stadium at Hoboken Park.
The Lawrence Alano Society, a cover group for all the divisions of Alcoholics Anonymous, will present a recommendation to the Board at Nash Center at 4th and Missouri streets.
The reason for the change, according to Mike Wildegen, assistant city manager, is that the property's owner wants the Thompson Furniture building at 945 Massachusetts St., is being sold.
Another question facing the commissioners is a proposed change in the rehabilitation loan requirements and limits.
If the proposal is adopted, a special procedure will be used for reviewing requests for cases where rehabilitation costs exceed $110,000
According to a letter from Lynn A. Goodell, director of Community Development, "the rationale for increasing the limit of the deferred loan is that it is impossible to rehabilitate some of the larger homes with the amount of funds now available."
The Community Development staff and the Grant Review Board will recommend an increased limit for deferred property rehabilitation loans.
The commission will meet at 7 tonight on the fourth floor of the First National Bank building, 910 Massachusetts St.
