Israeli jets bomb Lebanon, shoot down Syrian fighters
YAMIT, Israeli-occupied Sinai—Shattering a nine-month truce, Israel jets yesterday bombarded Palestinian coastal targets all the way up to suburban Beirut and shot down two Syrian MiGs in a dogfight. The Syrians said they downed one Israel jet, but Israel denied it.
A spokesman said five of the dead were guerrillas and the rest were civilians. It was now known how many civilians were killed.
Palestinian officials said more than 20 people were killed and 80 wounded in the two-hour bombardment of Palestinean bases and camps along the Mediterranean Coast from the suburbs near Beirut International Airport to Damour, 13 miles south.
The raid, which came as Israel's Cabinet voted unanimously to return the eastern Sinai Sunday, as scheduled, shattered a July 24 cease-fire for Lebanon negotiated by U.S. Envoy Philip Habb. Israel had accused the Islamic Liberation Organization of numerous smaller violations of the truce.
Lebanese police said the Israeli jets, described as U.S.-made F-15s and F-16s, destroyed a Syrian radar base in Doha, on the southern outskirts of Beirut, and several Palestinian baselines. Seven coastal villages and a Palestinian refugee carm in South Lebanon were damaged.
Lebanon requested urgent U.N. action, and the Security Council was to meet at 11 a.m. tomorrow.
MU chancellor facing budget battle
COLUMBIA, Mo.-University of Missouri Chancellor Barbara Uehling will a faculty vote calling for her to scrap projected program cuts or resign from the university.
The budget cuts could cost 200 faculty jobs. Under Uehning's plan, cuts over the next three years would include a reduction of $7 million in academic resources.
Faculty members voted 237-70 this week to ask the chancellor to either abandon the planned cuts or resign. The faculty resolution said the cuts were "unacceptable" and would not be made.
Uehling said Tuesday the resolution represented the sentiments of only a fraction of the university's 1,500-member faculty.
"It was a group comprised mainly of people from the affected programs and, in that light, the outcome was totally predictable," she said. "We have this data now."

The British defense ministry refused to disclose the location of the warships and declined comment on press reports that a spearhead force of destroyers, detached from the main task force, was speeding toward South Georgia, the Falklands' dependency 800 miles southeast of the islands.

Slowdown may lead to AIAW death
Lawsuit against NCAA
Within the next three months, its office staff will cut back and its executive board will become dormant, with the exception of a three-woman executive committee that will continue to function.
The AIAW made the decision at an executive board meeting last week in Washington, D.C. The move is another step that indicates the AIAW may not
The future of the AIAW revolves around an anti-trust suit that the AIAW fights against the National College Athletic Association. The lawsuit said that the NCAA would become a monopoly if the AIAW did not survive.
The dispute between the two groups came to a head when the AIAW filed an injunction against the NCAA in U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C.

When the injunction was denied, the ATAW suspended its recruiting rules effective March 1 and announced that it would begin membership applications for 1982-1983.
The AIAW wanted to sponsor women's championships, but the NCAA
A court date for the lawsuit had not been set yet, in hopes that the two groups can reach an out-of-court settlement.
"We have sent a letter in response to the proposal," Bill Cramer, NCAA attorney, said yesterday. He said the NCAA had it delivered by a messenger, but would not comment further because the two sides were still in discussion.
MARLENE MASWON, AIAW Region Six president said she did not feel free to comment until after she had talked with the AIAW director this week.
"I could say that the AIAW proposal
For the next year, Mawson said, the AIAW has suspended the idea of sponsoring a championship program, which is under the court decision is in the AIAW's favor.
Either way, the AIAW will send all of the national championship records it has kept during its 10-year existence to the NCAA for consideration to join the season June 30, the end of the fiscal year.
Mawson said the ethics and eligibility records would be available, with each region keeping track of them.

The records indicate which players are eligible to play, a fact that may become vital to the NCAA if it supports the women's programs.
But before the AIAW would decide to close, it would give its members a final chance to voice their opinions.
"There is a special delegate assembly June ? in Washington, D.C. Mawson said. "The national office will send out information about by May to determine whether he be a quorum at that Washington meeting."
If the quorum is not met, the national office will phone the AIAM members and have them vote by phone she said.
