Nicaraguan forces beat back rebels
By United Press International
Nicaragua forces are beating back a new invasion by thousands of U.S.-financed insurgents and have shot down three planes flown by the American-led leftist government said yesterday in a review of the military situation.
"These are hard blows that we have given the Somocista counter-revolution," Defense Minister Humberto Ortega said, referring to the US supporters of the late Nicaraguan dictator Anastasio Somoza.
Ortega said one of the rebel planes was shot down when it attacked the Managua airport Sept. 8. Another was shot down when it bombed the Pacific port of Corinto.
THE DEFENSE MINISTER said a third was hilt in southern Nicaragua as the crew tried to drop supplies to forces of Eden Pastora, the rebel leader who claimed responsibility for the air assaults.
The defense minister told the official Sandinista newspaper, Barricada that 2,000 rebels of the U.S. funded Nicaraguan Democratic Force had invaded the country in the north, but "the army is fighting them, causing numerous casualties and sending them fleeing."
In another development, 12 members of a U.S. peace group held a two-week vigil along Nicaragua's northern border with Honduras as part of their effort to end the fighting.
"On returning to the United States,
we will discuss what is happening in that zone of conflict," said the group's spokesman, Jesse Burger.
IN EL SALVADOR, the Catholic Church denounced a sharp rise in battle deaths, saying that 121 people died last week. The country has been plagued for four years by civil war.
In his sermon at San Salvador's Metropolitan Cathedral, Bishop Gregorio Rosa Chavez condemned leftist guerrillas for an assault last Thursday near a new hydroelectric plant.
The bishop said 97 of the 121 deaths recorded came in fighting between troops and rebels. The church has reported 274 killings since guerrillas opened a new offensive Sept. 4 near San Miguel, the country's third largest city.
Weinberger says Salvadoran victory possible
By United Press International
WASHINGTON — Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger said yesterday that a call for military victory in El Salvador by one of his top aides did not mean deeper American military involvement in Central America's strife.
"What we are saying is that a military victory is clearly achievable by the Salvadorans themselves if we can give them a little more support." Weinberger said in an interview published in U.S. News & World Report.
Fred Ikle, the No. 3 official at the Pentagon, said in a speech last week that the "hard core" insurgents seeking to topple the U.S.-backed government in El Salvador "will never settle for a fair democratic process."
"WE SEEK VICTORY for democracy," Ikle said, describing the two components of that victory as "defeating militarily" the guerrillas and

establishing a stable government that protects "justice and personal security."
Ile said Congress' refusal to support President Reagan's calls for additional aid for friendly nations in the region could force the stationing of American troops in the region "as in Korea or West Germany."
Weinberger said additional help for the Salvadoran government is needed "because a Salvadoran military victory is clearly possible."
The secretary said "everybody's striving for" a negotiated settlement, but the rebel forces had not offered anything "except attempts to disrupt the (planned) election and demands that there be a so-called Russian-style
election . . . to ratify some kind of previously imposed settlement."
ON ANOTHER SUBJECT, Weinberger said the U.S. Marines "could withdraw" from Lebanon once the fighting there stops, "a government of national reconciliation" was established, and all foreign forces were withdrawn.
He also said, "There is no way the Marines are going to go out and join the Lebanese armed forces in fighting any of these various factions."
Weinberger said it is "quite possible" that a cease-fire could be arranged in the "days ahead" but offered no specific timetable.

Judge says state can force treatment Child refuses medicine on religious grounds
By United Press International
Pamela Hamilton and her father, a fundamentalist preacher, are resisting all treatment and painkillers on religious grounds. A judge ruled Saturday that the state could force the girl to take medication to ease her pain.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Doctors prescribed painkillers for a 12-year-old cancer victim against her religious beliefs yesterday, but the girl slept soundly without the medication, hospital officials said.
Herman ruled the state could force Pamela to undergo immediate chem-
iology.
an appellate court judge placed a stay on treatment until the state Court *Appeals* could hear arguments from the Hamilton's attorney this morning. The stay only prohibited chemotherapy or treatment, and did not cover medication.
The girl was resting at East Tennessee Children's Hospital after Juvenile Court Judge Charles Herman placed her in the state's custody. She is suffering from a rare form of cancer called Ewing's sarcoma.
Doctors said Pamela's condition was worsening each day, and state at ternees planned to ask the appeal court to stay in force. The attorneys continue to debate the case.
