Reagan, Mondale to meet in debate at Kansas City
WASHINGTON — President Reagan and Walter Mondale will debate twice before the November election, and their running mates will face off once, the League of Women Voters said yesterday. The Mondale conceded "that's all we could get."
Reagan and Mondale will debate Oct. 7 in Louisville, Ky., and Oct. 21 in Kansas City. Mo. George Bush and Geraldine Ferraro will debate Oct. 11 in Philadelphia.
The dates and locations of the 1984 presidential campaign debates had leaked during the weekend and were confirmed at Women President Dorothy Ridings.
The debates will be 90 minutes each, and the candidates will be questioned by a panel consisting of a moderator and four panelists, probably well-known members of the news media. The first debate will be devoted to the economy and other domestic issues, and the second will concern defense and foreign policy.
Canadian Mulroney sworn in
OTTAWA — Conservative Brian Mulroney was sworn in yesterday as Canada's 18th prime minister. Mulroney earned one of the largest majorities in the nation's modern history and has a mandate to improve relations with the United States.
Muloney, 45, a millworker's son from rural Quebec, took the oath of office administered by Governor General and gave in a nationally televised ceremony
Murtonley led the Conservatives to a landslide victory in Canada's Sept. 4 election.
NEW YORK — Employees of United Press International agreed yesterday to accept contract concessions aimed at restoring the wire service's profitability.
UPI workers accept pay cuts
The concessions, including a 25 percent pay cut for the next three months, are designed to lead to a small operating profit in the last quarter of 1984 and, next year, to the company's first annual profit in 20 years.
The pay cuts will diminish gradually to 5 percent, and wages for UPI's 2,000 worldwide employees will return to current levels by October 1985.
In exchange for the concessions, employees will get 6.5 percent of the stock of Media News Corp., the holding company that owns the 77-year old wire service

Naturalization record broken by six
9,706 new citizens take pledge
By United Press International
MIAMI — Nearly 10,000 people, most of them Hispanics, became U.S. citizens yesterday at the Orange Bowl stadium in the country's largest naturalization ceremony with an outpouring of patriotism, Republicanism and Reaganism.
Immigration officials said 9,766 people — six more than the record — took the oath to become citizens in a ceremony attended by Vice President George Bush.
"Bienvenidos a su país: Welcome to your country." Bush told the multinational audience of about 20,000. "This is your land."
"I should have done this a long time ago," said Ampara Carrera, 23, who has lived in the United States since her left cuba when she was 3. "I don't know why I waited
so long. I have always thought I was an American. I'm just making it legal."
Jose Lobo born in Cuba became a U.S. citizen 18 years ago. He knew no one who was sworn in at yesterday's ceremony, but said he wanted to "like it to sing." The Star-Spangled Banner.
"This is the land of the free and the home of the brave." Lobo exclaimed.
Bush's speech was interrupted several times with thunderous applause. Although he described the event as a "non-partisan mission", many of the new citizens spared him and a sign hung from a nearby apartment building proclaimed "Viva Reagan."
Waving miniature American flags and clutching cameras, the new citizens swarmed outside the stadium where Dade County elections officials had set up rows of voter
registration tables under the lime trees
Nearly three-fourths of the immigrants are of Cuban descent and were expected to register as Republicans, said Dade County election worker Ivy Korman.
"I've been at the tables all morning and I don't think I've seen a Democrat," said Carlos Manrique, president of the Young American Republicans of Dade County.
"our goal is to get people to become citizens, then to get them to register, then to get them to vote Republican," said Manrique. "We hope to give a Republican majority in office as well as re-elect President Reagan."
Manrique's group had worked since February helping immigration officers process citizenship applications, he said.
GM workers go on strike at 12 plants
20-hour negotiations break off; bargaining set to resume today
By United Press International
DETROIT — Striking auto workers yesterday halted production at 12 General Motors Corp. assembly plants nationwide at a cost to them of $8 billion a day, with talks ended until April.
Weary negotiators for GM and the United Auto Workers broke off contract talks at 2:30 a.m. yesterday following a 20-hour session and set bargaining to resume today
The first striker hits the picket lines at 6 a.m. local time. They will get $85 a week in strike pay plus medical coverage from the union's $750 million strike fund.
"They don't really want a strike, but they want restored what was taken from them." said spokesman J M. Comiskey for local 504 in Pontiac, Mich. He said to do it this way would only be payable.
The just-expired contract contained $3 billion in concessions made in 1982.
Analysts estimate the walkouts by nearly 59,000 hourly workers will cost GM $125 million a week, or about $18 million a day. They are expected an early squeeze on inventories.
"Most Cadillac dealers are all cleaned out of '84 models and none of us has any inventory of '85 models," said Everett Ahlgrim, owner of Alhgrim Cadillac in Hammond, Ind. "A strike will have a big effect on our business."
The union authorized local issue strikes at 13 plants after bargainers failed to reach agreement by midnight Friday. Workers at selected plants officially went on strike but only a Flint, Mich., plant with 13,100 workers had weekend work scheduled.
One of the 13. Local 644 at Van Nuys, Calif.
reached agreement night on a local
contract covering about 4,000 workers and
most workers returned to work yesterday
Sources said bargainers were hung up on job security, the union's top priority.
GM refused to make an economic offer during the 20-hour bargaining session, insisting that the job security portion of the agreement should be before wages and benefits were discussed.

My friend John is a nice guy
But when it comes to cars he's an egotist. He just got himself a Porsche 944. He's so proud of his high-priced German-made sports car it's unbelievable.
John is pretty insecure. He needs a "name" to be somebody. Not me
I knew there was a car out there for me. The kind of car that would fit my lifestyle. Fast Fun loving. Unpretentious. Economical I found it, at my Dodge dealer.
THE DISCOVERY
THE DISCOVERY
I knew right away that the Dodge Daytona Turbo Z was my kind of car! The minute I saw the aerodynamic lines and the understated elegance of this new American road machine I tell in love. And when I read the sticker price I was pleasantly surprised. Here was the world's first high-performance front wheel drive Turbo sports car for half the cost of John's Porsche 9441
THE TEST.
decision first. Those people at Dodge really care about us car-buyers. So I drove it. Awesome!
A test drive wasn't necessary
I wanted to buy it right on the spot.
But my Dodge dealer insisted that I take the Daytona Turbo Z for a ride. He wanted me to be absolutely sure of my
The contoured seat sport fit my body like a glove. All the controls were logically placed and easy to reach. My dealer calls it Ergonomics. I call it common sense.
FASTER?
So there I was, sitting in the cockpit of my dream machine. My dealer looked at me. He told me to go for it. I did! Incredible!
The advanced technology of the potent turbocharger under the hood propelled my dealer and me from zero to 60 miles-per-hour in eight and a half seconds! That's faster than John's Posche 9441! I was thoroughly convinced.
AGILE?
I was ready to sign on the dotted line! My dealer told me to take a few corners first. So I did! Unbelievable!
The high-tech Euro-sport suspension system and the gas-filled shocks allowed me to shoot through those corners with the power and sure-footedness of a panther! My dreams had come true. Here was the power and performance

I was looking for. And at half the sticker price of the Porsche 944!
As we pulled into the lot I asked my dealer how long I'd have to wait to get one of these dream cars. He said, "You don't have to wait, they're American made." Perfect!
BYE-BYE JOHNNY.
So there I was, in my new Dodge Daytona Turbo Z. sitting next to John and his high-priced German-made sports car. He looked at me and laughed. But when the light turned green, John couldn't even get close enough to see what I was driving! I just waved goodbye in my rear-view mirror.
Now I have my American dream car. And you can too! Just see your nearest Dodge dealer. And if you happen to see my friend John, finally getting a close look at the Dodge Daytona Turbo Z, tell him I'll be at the first stoplight along the corner.
