PLO diplomat murdered;
Arafat blames Israeli gang
ALBUFEIRA. Portugal — A gunman firing at point blank range assassinated a prominent Palestinian advocate of talks with Israel as he stood in the lobby of a hotel yesterday. He was hosting a conference of world socialist leaders.
Issaam Sartawi, U.S.trained cardiologist, Palestine Liberation Organization roving ambassador in Europe and close friend of PLO chief Yasser Arafat, was hit in the head by at least two bullets and died instantly, police said. He was 48.
In Sana, North Yemen, Arafat blamed Israeli mercenaries for Sartawi's killing, which he described as a "a big loss for the Palestinian revolution."
Aadam's accusation of Israeli involvement came after the Abu Nidal group, an extremist Palestinian faction expelled from the PLO, claimed responsibility in Damascus, Syria for the assassination.
Kansas man arrested for smuggling
WAKEENEY, Kan. — An airplane chase that began near the Mexican border ended in Kansas early yesterday as federal agents and local lawmen arrested a Kansas man suspected of smuggling drugs, the Trego County sheriff said.
merrif J. D. Ochs said the man, whom he would not identify, piloted a single-engine airplane that landed at Wakeena County Airport about 2 a.m., yesterday, shortly after dumping a load of what is believed to be marijuana at a Garden City airship.
Ochs said sheriff's deputies found the aircraft abandoned, conducted an area search and arrested a suspect within minutes at a Wakeeneen truck stop restaurant. He said sheriff's deputies did not find any contraband on board the airplane.
Shuttle passes post-flight inspection
While elated astronauts relaxed in Houston, technicians inspected the space shuttle Challenger in California yesterday and pronounced it in beautiful shape — cleaner than the Columbia ever was after a landing.
James Harrington, shuttle ground operations manager, said the Challenger received only superficial damage from the April 4 launch and Saturday's flawless landing at Edwards Air Force Base, Calif.
Peterson and his crewmates, Paul Weitz, Karol Bobko and Story Musgrave, spent five days and 24 minutes in the Challenger.
The four astronauts spent yesterday relaxing with family and friends at their homes near the Johnson Space Center in Houston.
El Salvador official may resign soon
SAN SALVADOR, EI Salvador — Defense Minister Jose Guillermo García could resign as early as this week, completing a deal made with a rebelled army colonel in January, military sources said yesterday.
a objection. Garcia, 49, has long shown skill at political maneuvering, and predictions of his departure in the past precluded premature.
independence on the war front, military sources in northern and eastern El Salvador reported relative calm overnight.
San Salvador Archbishop Arturo Rivera y Damas, in his homily yesterday, said 86 civilians had been killed in the past two weeks. He condemned security forces and right-wing death squads for all but five of the deaths.
WASHINGTON — President Reagan will receive a report today from a presidential commission that is sure to trigger new controversy over the MX missile and intensify the debate over his arms control policies.
Reagan is scheduled to meet with his Commission on Strategic Forces, which is a panel of military planners and strategists assembled in January with the hope that its collective expertise could help push an MX basing plan through Congress.
The commission will unveil recommendations that may end a lengthy deadlock over the deployment of a new land-based intercontinental ballistic missile. The proposals were drafted with administration officials, some of whom consider them a compromise.
The House will debate Wednesday on a proposed freeze on U.S. and Soviet nuclear arsenals.
Sermon honors heroes of uprising
WARSAW, Poland — Cardinal Jozef Glemp, the private of Poland's Roman Catholic Church, honored the heroes of the Jewish Warsaw ghetto uprising against the Nazis in a sermon yesterday that condemned all forms of persecution.
concerned in order to preserve Glemp celebrated Mass at St. Augustine's Church, the only building to escape destruction inside the area of the Polish capital that was the Jewish ghetto 40 years ago.
Several thousand people packed the church and filled its courtyard, including three prominent members of the Polish Jewish community.

Critics shun student-informant plan
LEWISVILLE, Texas — Critics call it something out of Hitler's Germany, but educators across the nation say the strategy of a rural Texas school to rid itself of drug users — employing paid student-informants — may give public education a much-needed shot in.
It is the use of informant money that inflames critics.
It is hoped that the students were offered up to $100 as reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of other students using and selling drugs. Since September 1982, the suburban Dallas school paid out about $450 from funds raised by its PTA. At least 30 students were turned in. Fourteen were expelled and all face criminal charges.
Chicago to choose mayor tomorrow
CHICAGO — Both candidates predicted victory yesterday in a bitter election that will determine tomorrow whether Democrat Harold Washington will be Chicago's first black mayor.
If voters reject Washington, a congressman, Bernard Epton will become the city's first Jewish mayor and the first Republican to hold this office in 52 years.
The choice will be made by voters from an electorate that some observers believe is polarized by the issue of race.
Some analysts believe the turnout will top the 1.2 million who voted in the Feb. 22 primary, in which Washington defeated Mayor Jane Byrne and Richard Daley.
