Swissair jet lands, catches fire
ATHENS, Greece - Fire swept through a Swissair DC-8 jettlin last night, at killing at least eight of the 154 persons on board, after the plane skidded to a halt in Greece.
The Civil Aviation Authority reported two other persons were in serious condition and an undetermined number of the 142 passengers were being treated at Athens hospitals. None of the 12 crewmembers was injured, the authority said.
The plane landed and witnesses said flames started shooting out of its undercarriage as it attempted to brake to a stop, finally coming to a halt at the end.
The plane, Flight 316 from Geneva, did not go off the runway, Swissair reported.
The airport was closed while firefighting equipment was being used at the scene to extinguish the flames. Incoming flights were diverted to nearby airports.
Castro to visit, address U.N.
UNITED NATIONS--Fidel Castro will address the U.N. General Assembly this week. American and U.N. officials said yesterday.
It will be the Cuban president's first trip to the United States in 19 years.
David Passage, a State Department spokesman, said that visa requests for Castro and his party were made last week and that he would probably arrive in San Diego on Thursday.
Passage said Castro would address the Assembly session in his role as head of the non-aligned movement—the organization with more than 90 nationals professing Islam.
"There are no plans for meetings with U.S. officials," Passage said.
Each year a number of heads of state and foreign ministers address the General Assembly in the first few weeks of its three-month session. It had been expected that Castro might be one of this year's speakers, but as late as Friday a U.N. spokesman said it was his understanding the Cuban president would not
Sources have suggested Castro might not have made a final decision on whether to make the trin.
Everest claims two conauerors
KATMANDU, Nepal—An American mountain guide and a West German woman froze to death on the slopes of Mount Everest coming down from their successful climb of the world's highest mountain, the Ministry of Tourism said yesterday.
The ministry said that Raymond Genet, 45, a mountain guide from Taiketta, Alaska, and Hanneles Gschmidt Schmatz, 39, from Neu Ulm, West Germany, were forced by bad weather and exhaustion to make camp on their way down from the 28.008-foot Mount Everest last Tuesday.
The two froze to death that day in the camp at an altitude of 26,800 feet, the ministry said. A local guide accompanying the two climbers was rescued but unharmed.
They were part of a nine-member team led by Mrs. Schatz's husband, Gerhard Schatz, who led two other members to the summit on April 1.—just 30 men and women died in the attack.

ASK...
From page one
decriminalization legislation being passed this year.
"It will be the same Senate that hasn't supported three years and they are up for re-election," she said. "They are all running scared because of re-election and they don't think they can vote."
Frank Jackalone, national chairman of the United States Student Association, agreed with Glover that state lobbying groups should concentrate their efforts on education-oriented issues. Jackson address the delegates and later spoke at a meeting.
However, other delegates said that students also were citizens. Therefore, social issues that did not affect them should be affected and students would affect them as citizens.
"If a bill has a direct effect on students as a social group, ASK should deal with it," he said. "If we don't believe it has a direct effect on students than ASK should not deal with it."
"With their limited resources," he said, "the student lobbying groups should put most of their resources and time behind hard-core student issues."
A a resolution supporting diversiteit by university endowment associations of their own, which will be in consultation with operations in South Africa was withdrawn by the KU delegation before the meeting.
ROBIN MCCLELLAN, ASK camp director for KU said that after talking to other delegations, she decided the resolution would not have had a chance of passing.
Once again she said it is a social issue that other delegations do not want to deal with.
Margaret Berlin, KU student body president, said the issue did not belong in the ASK assembly because it was not an official job; could lobby for in the state legislature.

SEABROOK, N.H.(AP) About 500 anti-numerals demonstrators ripped down a fence at the Baccharok atomic power plant and马赛和smoke bombs them back with Mace and smoke bombs.
Demonstrators rip down fence at Seabrook plant
As many as 1,500 demonstrators twice assaulted the chain-link fence surrounding the construction site in their attempt to take over the plant.
An early attempt failed, but 500 demonstrators later arrived in two groups and ripped down sections of the building. The police said as National Guard stood there.
At least two people were taken into custody, and the police confiscated gas masks and other equipment
Earlier, a squad of 25 helmeted troopers moved 200 yards outside a chain-link fence and confronted about 75 soldiers. He pulled a poncho bridge across a dailent tributal.
Troopers fought the demonstrators with Mace and crowd-crowd canisters (8). In 2013, a Game officer used jack-knives to slash the truck fire inner tubes used to support
THE GOVERNOR'S OFFICE first said the police had used tear gas, but later said they had used smoke bombs.
Departing demonstrators said that the takeover attempt had been disorganized and that there were not enough protesters.
On Saturday, about 1,500 protesters failed to force their way through the 8-foot-high fence along the south side of the plant. They were repelled by more than 2,000 firefighters and National Guard men using fire houses, Mace, heat gas and riot batons.
The skirmish dimmed the spirits of about 1,000 demonstrators who had camped overnight in the rain on the 140 acres of waterland outside the plant.
Some demonstrators stood in 3 feet of water, unsuccessfully trying to prevent the police from sinking the bridge.
The Coalition for Direct Action at Seatruck, sponsors of the protest, had taken out a group of demonstrators. The coalition is an offshoot of the Claims Alliance, which has been involved in the protests.
