American RC-133 reconnaissance plane. The plot might well have failed to see the function of the aircraft.
The RC:135 was 1,000 miles away, over international waters, when the Sovietsukhi Su15 fired its missile at the KAL jet after tracking it for $2 \frac{1}{2}$ hours near Soviet-holden Sakhalin Island off northern Japan, U.S. officials said.
BLAMING WASHINGTON for the fate of the plane. Romanov said, "If one ponders on this unusual, frankly speaking, unprecedented accident, one arrives at the conclusion that its
scenario was prepared in details beyond the ocean.
"They are new victims of the Cold War, whose apologist and champion the White House is. It will have to reckon with history for these lives, too."
"It is there that the lives of numerous people were put at stake. And these people lost their lives not at all at the fault of the Soviets, as certain persons in the West are clamoring.
Romanov's statement, his second in two days on the incident, indicated a serious attempt by the Kremalin to fend off a swelling tide of criticism.
IN WASHINGTON, senior State Department officials told reporters over the holiday weekend that Shultz intended to press for an explanation that the Soviet Union领会 clean with the facts."
Shultz and Gromyko will be in Madrid for a long-planned, three-day conference of 34 foreign ministers on human rights. The ministers are expected to voice their support for an updated and revised edition of the Helsinki Final Act on Security and Cooperation in Europe.
The United States and the Soviet Union signed the original Helsinki Accords, among other agreements.

"What they'd put in the paper is 'city invaded.'" she said.
Blessingian agreed, saying that movies such as "Easy Rider" had hurt the reputation of the film.
"There's some nudity up there," he said.
"When it gets hot, the people take it off."
Yet reporters were not allowed inside the excluded campground because Hughes said they didn't want to disrupt it.
The ABATE officials said it might be dangerous if a photographer tried to take a picture of someone who did not want his picture taken.
"You're liable to wind up getin' hurt," Rick lurpham, a member of ABATE, told me.
BUT RICHARD RUCKER, a ranger at Lake Perry for the Army Corps of Engineers, said there had never been any problems associated with the three-day rally.
The motorcyclists went to the nearby towns to replenish their supplies of food and drinks.
ABATE describes itself as a brotherhood, and a feeling of camaraderie prevailed at the entrance to the Old Military Trail campground. The men who came out are other as they passed in and out of the entrance.
Blessingham directed traffic around the clock at the entrance to the campground, allowing motorcyclists who had paid a $18 fee to go inside and paid to the secluded campgrounds at Lake Perry.
Curious motorists sometimes drove up to the entrance, where ABATE members would direct them to turn around, saying that they had paid the entrance fees to set up camp.
BUT SOME cyclists neglected to bring sleeping bags and other camping gear.
Having spent two days at the campground, the directors of the rally said they were tired. On Sunday afternoon, Hughes said he had only had one hour of sleep since Wednesday.
Lawrence, said the organization's key success was a compromise worked out with the Kansas Legislature. In 1975, the Kansas Legislature required all motorcycle riders to wear helmets.

After researching the lobbying efforts of ABATE chapters in other states, ABATE of Kansas successfully lobbied in Topeka to support a compromise on the ballet law. Houhes said
"It's a lot better solution than being required to wear a helmet " he said.
NOW, ONLY RIDERS under 18 must wear a helmet, he said.
Many of the riders entering and exiting at the gate to last weekend's party were not wearing uniforms.
Since the helmet law compromise, ABATE of Kansas has remained politically dormant, although it has been monitoring legislation, Hughes said.

Tokyo for tests to determine whether it came from the downed plane.
The Madrid conference runs from tomorrow through Friday. Shultz will meet privately with Graziano.
The search for the wreckage of the Boeing 747 continued for the fifth day yesterday, with Japanese Maritime officials reporting that ships were missing on the water near Moneron, a tiny island west of Sakhalin Island.
They said a piece of yarn, possible human hair, synthetic material and thermal insulation can be made from the same raw materials.
In Seoul, the government scheduled a memorial service expected to draw 85,000 people to a stadium tomorrow to honor the 269 victims of protesters condemned the attack at railings.
SEVERAL HUNDRED protesters in Seoul, the South Korean capital, burned an effigy of Soviet President Yuri Andropov.
Reagan

Soviets with pleas for stronger U.S. defenses, urging Congress to approve his military budget
Speaking from the Oval Office, Reagan noted pointedly, "Despite the savagery of their crime, the universal reaction against it and the complicity, the Soviets still refuse to tell the truth."
Using tapes of intercepted radio transmissions, Reagan scaffolded at Moscow's suggestion that Soviet fighter pilots and their ground crew had been tracked in U.S. spy plane that had earlier crossed its path.
REAGAN, PARAPHARASING the Russian communications, took note of how the pilot reported spotting “the target” — its navigation lights on — then stalking the aircraft.
The Soviet pilot "finally announces what can only be called the Korean Air Lines Massacre," Reagan said, locking on to the target and firing a few shots as he sent the jettier plunging into the Sca of Sea.
"The 747 has a unique and distinctive silhouette, unlike any other plane in the world." Reagan said. "There is no way a pilot could miss this for anything other than a civilian airliner."
The evidence, Reagan said, is "incon-

trovertible” that the Soviets knowingly shot down the jetliner, despite the “confusing tale” they have offered. Although the Soviets first mistook the 747 for an American RC-135 reconnaissance plane, Reagan stressed that the attack had were far apart when the attack occurred
The president said the United States would file a claim through diplomatic channels for compensation for relatives of the U.S. victims and for any loss of U.S. property, and support efforts by the 13 nations who lost citizens to seek payment from Moscow.
A TRADITION IN QUALITY
IMPORT SERVICE & PART6
Reagan said he was trying to line up support among other countries to punish the Soviet airline Aeroflot, and noted that Canadian officials had announced Aeroflot would not have landing or refuelling privileges on Canadian soil for 60 days.
The sanctions should continue. Reagan said,
"until the Societs satisfy the cries of humanity
from those who are under attack."

Get to the answers faster. With the TI-55-II.
What you need to tackle the higher mathematics of a science or engineering curriculum are more functions - more functions than a simple slide-rule calculator has.
Enter the TI-55-II, with 112 powerful functions. You can work faster and more accurately with the TI-55-II, because it's preprogrammed
to perform complex calculations - like definite integrals, linear regression and hyperbolics - at the touch of a button. And it can also be programmed to do repetitive problems without re-entering the entire formula.
Included is the Calculator Decision-Making Sourcebook It makes the process of using
the TL-55-II even simpler,
and shows you how to use all
the power of the calculator.
