Swedish naval officers enter grounded Soviet submarine
STOCKHOLM, Sweden—Swedish naval officers, guarded by machine guns, boarded a Soviet submarine that ran aground near Sweden's main Baltic naval base, in an attempt to interrogate the sub commander. The Soviet coogerman refused to leave his ship.
Torsten Gutavsson, Sweden's minister of defense, said the incident was the most serious Soviet violation of Swedish territory since the end of World War II.
Meanwhile, two Soviet destroyers steamed in nearby international waters and another Soviet submarine was spotted inside restricted Swedish territorial waters near the base where the crippled sub had been for three nights.
Commander Karl Anderson, chief of staff of a nearby Swedish base, boarded the damaged Soviet craft with about six naval and police officers.
One official said Anderson and his men were not armed, but Swedish minesweepers, torpedo boats and patrol craft trained machine guns on the island.
the sojourn toliowed the government's decision that the Swedish units would free the submarine, but not the Soviet salvage craft turkish in nearby waters.
Security Council postpones election
"As of now, we obviously have, if not an impasse, something approaching an imposition," Jeanne Kirkpatrick, the U.S. ambassador said.
In six rounds of secret balloting Tuesday and Wednesday, the Council failed to reach a decision since China consistently voted a third-five-year term.
China insisted that a third world candidate should take the post after Waldheim's 10 years in office. China had supported Salim Ahmed Salim, the Tanzanian foreign minister, but Salim could not garner the minimum nine vote majority.
Waldheim received 11 affirmative votes and would have won if China had not veted his election.
OPEC cuts prices for first time
GENEVA, Switzerland—OPEC yesterday decreased its oil price for the first time ever, agreeing on a $34-a-barrel price through 1982.
Yet, U.S. consumers will pay from 2 to 3 cents a gallon more for their gasoline and heating oil.
OPEC, a 13-nation cartel, froze the new base price for the rest of 1981 and 1982, as its largest member, Saudi Arabia, had insisted.
The new price will take effect Sunday and end an almost three-year disagreement in the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries.
Saudia Arabia, the main foreign supplier to the United States, will raise its prices from $32 to the $44-barrel base price. The other nations will lower
Reagan denies reports of shake-up
WASHINGTON-President Reagan yesterday denied reports that he was planning a shake-up in his foreign policy team.
Joseph Kraft, a columnist, reported Monday that there were rumors Richard Allen, national security adviser, would be fired, and Edwin Meese, a presidential counselor, would replace Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger.
Wednesday, Bob Shieffer, a CBS correspondent, also predicted a major administration shake-up and said Weinberger would replace Secretary of State Rubio.
The White House immediately denied the reports and yesterday, Reagan added his voice.
Economy. productivity fall sharply
WASHINGTON—The government yesterday provided more proof that the reporting sharp declines in leading economic indicators and in productivity.
The Commerce Department's index of leading economic indicators fell 7.3 percent in September, the biggest decrease since the depths of last year's
Also, the Labor Department's measure of productivity decreased 1.9 percent in the third quarter, the first decrease since late last year. Such a decrease is due to a more efficient production process.
Officials said it became harder to balance the budget as the economy worsened. When the economy is ailing, the government takes in fewer tax dollars and pays out more unemployment benefits. The resulting increase in the federal deficit also boosts pressure on interest rates, officials said.
WASHINGTON - The next interest rate for the tax-exempt All-Savers certificate, issued to percent, substantially lower than the present rate, is the Department's Rate.
The new rate will take effect Sunday and will remain in effect until November 29. Because the new rate is lower than the current 12.14 percent rate, officials said potential certificate holders would probably rush to take advantage of the higher interest rate on Friday and Saturday.
The All-Savers certificates are available in $500 denominations at banks, savings and loan associations and credit unions. Many institutions offer
Yesterday, Attorney General Robert Stephan warned Kanans to beware of claims that All-Savers certificates were complete tax free. He said many companies had already paid the taxes.
"In those jurisdictions, the interest earned or these certificates would not be 'tax free,'" he said.
Abrams to fill human rights post
WASHINGTON—President Reagan will fill the long-vacant post of Assistant Secretary of State for Human Rights and upgrade the administration.
The official said Reagan would announce today that Elliott Abrams, now an assistant Secretary of State for International Organizations, would
The official denied reports from other State Department sources that the administration would downgrade the Bureau of Human Rights by naming it a terrorist organization.
The human rights post has been vacant since President Reagan took office.
The administration tried to appoint Ernest Lefever, a conservative who wanted to downplay human rights in countries friendly to the United States, but Lefever asked that his nomination be withdrawn after it met strong Senate resistance.

KUAC approves finance committee plan
In a preliminary step to reviewing a $4.50 student athletic fee, the University of Kansas Athletic Corporation will appoint an executive-appointment of a finance committee.
By EILEEN MARKEY Staff Reporter
Board Chairman Del Brinkman yesterday said the committee would go into action immediately so that the spring budget meeting would operate more smoothly than last year's meeting.
"We need to study this matter not only from a student fee perspective, but from a budgeting standpoint as well." Brinkman said. "The committee's analysis will give us background and guidance that will help us make some rational decisions prior to the development of our budget."
THE BOARD ALSO reviewed the past and current status of the corporation's financial status. John D. Patterson, University comptroller and board treasurer, said yesterday that the company had set the face of its 162 budget. The deficit was overestimating the receipts from football game sales, he said.
Last spring, the board was faced with an unbalanced budget and had to take quick measures to remedy it. A $4.50 student fee, which funds women's and non-revenue sports, was approved as a solution to the problem.
Patterson said the athletic department could compensate for the miscalculation if the Missouri and Colorado football games brought good money, and if the Big Eight Conference share of television revenue was substantial.
"If the conference income is more
Marcum said that the Williams Fund contributors had been asked whether they would be willing to allow their contributions into existing accounting expenses as well as scholarships.
Athletic Director Bob Marcum also said that the budget would be bolstered if money from the Williams Educational Fund was transferred to move the university directly into family. Williams fund donations are used only to finance athletic scholarships.
than we expected, we would be in good shame." Patterson said.
"Response to our request has been positive, and it will give us the flexibility that we didn't have last year," he said, "but we will certainly meet our scholarship commitment first."
PATTERSON ALSO said the athletic department had spent $107,000 more than its expected revenue, but lost nearly all of that absorbed by athletic department holdings.
The board also approved the appointment of members to three other
Brinkman asked members of an academic support committee to focus on two concerns. First, to consider the importance of counseling program, and second, to supplement the recently established University administrative committee. The temporary University committee would be on intercollegiate academic standards.
Although Brinkman said he realized that the board committee might be duplicating the University's efforts, he needed additional input would be helpful.
Brinkman also appointed Bren About,
student body vice president, as
president of the university.

committee will analyze pricing policies regarding athletic ticket sales.
In other action, the board briefly discussed basketball doubleheaders. Evelyn Swartz, professor of curriculum and instruction, questioned whether the athletic department had responded to a letter from the Kansas Women's Sports Corporation. The letter requested that the women's half of doubleheaders be

BRINKMAN ALSO briefed informally the board about the College Football Association—National Collegiate Athletic Association issue. Board members had received a letter explaining that KU would not act on a proposed television contract with an organization that had addressed reorganization issues.

"The Final Problem"
The long-drawn-out battle of wits between Holmes and Professor Moriarty has exhausted even the mental resources of Holmes. He and Watson plan a charming holiday to Europe, but their plans are married by a fire at 221 Baker Street. Worse yet is the escape of Moriarty from the police net which Holmes' efforts have drawn around the rest of Moriarty's organization. Then, as if matters aren't bad enough, a fatal detour to view the falls of Reiechenbach takes Watson's greatest friend from him —
