A House-approved provision to protect aliens against job discrimination, written by Rep. Barney Frank, D-Mass., has become a significant legislative hurdle in the bipartisan bill that would grant U.S. citizenship to all aliens who entered the country prior to 1981. Sen. Alan Simpson, R-Wyo., the chief Senate negotiator and sponsor, opposed the Frank proposal in earlier negotiations because it would prohibit employers from giving preference to American citizens over aliens in hiring. But Simpson and House members -- including Rep. Romano Mazzoli, D-Ky, the key House sponsor -- had worked out most major differences over six days of talks. Weber resigns as CU president BOULDER.

Whistles installed to save deer MILWAUKEE — Wisconsin Bell hopes whistling in the dark — and the daylight — will help cut the slaughter of deer on state highways. The state Department of Natural Resources estimates that 20,000 white-tailed deer are killed on Wisconsin roads each year. Bell has installed special high-pitched whistles known as a Deer Alert on 60 of its trucks. Robert Plaffi, Bell's staff manager of motor equipment, said. Two bullet-shaped whistles about 2 inches long are placed on the front grill of a vehicle. They are activated when the vehicle exceeds 30 mph, but can only be heard by deer. The high-pitched sound will not affect cattle or sheep, officials said. Bell spokesman Maurice Louret said that the whistles seem to be working. DOVER, Del. — The family of Army Chief Warrant Officer Kenneth V. Welch, one of the military victims of last week's Beirut explosion, leaves after a joint service ceremony in Dover honoring the two men. Services honor two killed in blast By United Press International DOVER AIR FORCE BASE, Del — Two American servicemen killed in Beirut by a terrorist car bomb were honored yesterday, with one official vowing that the United States would remain in Lebanon “despite the risk.” An honor guard of soldiers and sailors stood vigil over the flag drapped caskets containing the bodies of Army Chief Warrant Officer Kenneth V. Welch, 33, of Grand Rapids, Mich., and Navy Petty Officer 1st Class Michael Ray Wagner, 30, of Zebulon, N.C. The two men were killed last Thursday when an Arab terrorist on a suicide mission set off a car bomb at the U.S. Embassy annex in East Beirut. Air Force Lt. Gen. John Chain, director of the State Department's bureau of political-military affairs, praised the two servicemen and said their sacrifice would be an inspiration for others. U.S. interests threatened following embassy attack By United Press International BEIRUT, Lebanon — A threat attributed to the group blamed for last week's attack on the U.S. Embassy annex said yesterday that another "large operation" soon would be launched against American interests. A U.S. Embassy spokeswoman said the threat was being taken seriously The threat was published in the As Safi newspaper. A caller was quoted who claimed to represent Islamic Jihad, which means Islamic Holy War. The caller said the new strike would average 13 villagers slain by armed militants in south Lebanon Thursday. "We blew up the U.S. Embassy," said the man who telephoned Asaf, adding that "a large operation will be carried out against American interests soon." ISlamic JHAD HAS claimed responsibility for the suicide bombings that destroyed the U.S. Embassy building in West Beirut in April 1983 and the U.S. Marine headquarters near Berat airport in October. 758 Americans died in those blasts. At the United Nations, the State Department said investigators now believed the suicide truck contained 3,000 pounds of TNT instead of the 300 pounds that was originally estimated by experts on the scene. In Bonn, the West German newspaper Die Welt said the truck used to attack the building had been stolen in Muslim west Beirat a few weeks before the incident. Die Welt said investigators found the vehicle's diplomatic plates. The fact that the vehicle belonged to the embassy motor pool was decisive in getting past guards and overcoming security precautions. At Boring, Christian Phalange radio quoted investigation sources as saying the truck crossed from a village near the Syrian border Sept. 16 to the Shite Muslim southern suburbs of west Beirut. THE RADIO SAID after one night it crossed to the Christian eastern half of the capital where the U.S. Embassy annex is located. The attack occurred Sept. 20. The reports could not be confirmed. At the U.S. Embassy building in west Beirut, steel mesh anti-rocket netting was placed over the roof, although it was not installed. This was a result of the new threat from Islamic jihad. In Damascus, Assistant Secretary of State Richard Murphy met Syrian President Hafez al-Assad and discussed "the situation in Lebanon, particularly the proposed withdrawal of the Israeli forces." Damascus radio said. Murphy then flew to Israel for talks with Israel leaders, including Prime Minister Shimon Peres, Director-General David Kimche of the Foreign Ministry, and Defense Minister Yitzhak Rabin. The Reagan administration, in response to security threats such as the embassy attack, is sending an urgent request to Congress for a supplemental security program of $371 million, the State Department said yesterday. State Department spokesman John Hughes said the supplemental request will be part of the continuing resolution for State Department funds. BBC finally decides to broadcast shows about nuclear holocaust By United Press International LONDON — The British Broadcasting Corp. after 19 years of agonizing, has finally faced the issue of nuclear war by broadcasting two terrifying views of the devastation Britain could expect from an atom bomb. On Sunday night, the state-owned BBC showed "Threads," a 112-minute docu-drama depicting what might happen to the city of Sheffield in the wake of a 210-megaton attack on Britain. 20 million Unlike Hollywood's "The Day After," "Threads" followed the lives of the holocaust survivors for 13 years as they faced the psychological and physical rigors of the nuclear winter that scientists believe will blot out the sun and threaten mankind with starvation The network followed up last night by scheduling the two-hour documentary "On The 8th Day," dealing solely with the eighth day after a bomb, when scientists believe the northern hemisphere will be plunged into twilight and temperatures will plunge by as much as 70 degrees Fabriheit. The decision to show both films follows 19 years of hand-wringing over "The War Game," a show made in 1965 but banned from the airwaves by the BBC as too "horrifying." BRC executives said they changed their minds in this case because "Threads" and "On The 8th Day" were both carefully researched ___ TAKE A STUDY BREAK AT THE HAWK It Could Only Happen at THE HAWK • 1340 OHIO Pitcher Refills $1.50 Barrel Refills $1.00 2-7 p.m., Mon.-Thurs.
