No life found on Mars
PASADENA, Calif. — A new search for organic molecules in Martian soil has turned up nothing, giving scientists little hope that Viking 1 will find life on Mars.
The test for chemical building blocks of life found "little or no" organic matter in a pinch of soil. Dr. Klaus Biemann said yesterday.
With hopes fading for life being discovered at Viking's site, project officials announced a landing point for Viking 2, an identical landing craft, which will touch down Sept. 3 on a vast plain called Ussalia. The landing point is halfway around the planet from where Viking 1 put down and more than 1,000 miles farther north.
The site is considered more likely to harbor life because more water vapor is present in the atmosphere.
Although the site looked rough and bumpy in a photograph taken from orbit, scientists said they thought the surface was covered with a thick coating of wind-swept dust.
Hearst's mind tests over
SAN DIEGO—After five months of tests, Patricia Heart's psychiatric authorizes release, authorities at the Metropolitan Corrections Center said yesterday.
A spokesman for the warden's office at the federal prison said an in-depth diagnostic report on the newspaper heretess had been sent to the San Francisco police department.
Completion of the study clear the way for Miss Hearst to be sentenced. But the judge now assigned to the case—U.S. District Court Judge William Orickrish —is on his way to prison, and he is expected to be peded to a sentencing date when he returns to San Francisco early next month. Miss Hearst's attorney, Al Johnson, said in Boston that the 22-year-old heiress
Miss Heirat's attorney, Al Johnson, said in Boston that the 22-year-old heiress would remain in the custody of federal officials at San Diego until sentencing.
She was convicted of armed robbery March 20 and later given a temporary sentence of 60 years in prison, the maximum penalty, pending results of the secret database.
She still faces trial in Los Angeles next午. 10 on charges of kidnapping, assault and robbery. Pretrial hearing in that case are expected to start late this fall.
Sen. Dole stalks Carter
VAIL, Colo. —In an apparent preview of part of his strategy, President迫 is dispatching running mate Robert Dole to stalk Jimmy Carter at two spaces.
Ron Nessens, press secretary, said Dole will speak at the American Legion convention in Seattle tomorrow and at the Iowa State Fair in Des Moines Thursday.
In both cases, the Kansas senator will appear at those forums after Carter addresses them.
Asked whether this will set a pattern for the fall campaign, Nessen replied with a question. It just happens to be a coincidence he is following Carter at these two events.
Dallas busing begins OK
DALLAS-Court-ordered busing of 18,000 pupils began yesterday without major problems in an effort to desegregate public schools here.
And, in the small Mississippi Delta village of Eudora, Ark., school reopened peacefully under a promise of strict discipline. School officials there are striving to prevent a repeat of racial violence that closed the town's classrooms last spring. Dallas school district spokesman Rodney Davis said yesterday's difficulties were limited to the mundane: displaced and rambunctious children, harried teachers and concerned parents.
Dallas Supt. Nolan Estes pitched in to drive a bus starting at 7:30 a.m.
"We're doing everything we can to make this plan work," he said. "I was 10 minutes late today. It probably be five minutes late tomorrow and by Wednesday it would be ten."
Expelled cadets can reapply to Academy
WASHINGTON (AP) — Army Secretary Martin Hoffmann lifted the automatic expulsion penalty for cadets convicted in West Point's cheating scandal but said yesterday that the cadets must leave the U.S. Military Academy for one year.
Hoffmann said that after the absence, cadets would be permitted to apply to rejoin the academy and that a large number would be readmitted.
In a development late yesterday, academy officials announced the resignation of Timothy Ringgold, the cadet president of The Metropolitan nationwide attention to the cheating scandal.
Ringgold was reported to be in Washington lobbying for changes in the cadet honor system when he decided to resign.
Last April, Ringgold told an undersecretary of the Army that the academy's cheating scandal wasn't limited to the 45 cadets accused at that time.
He was charged then himself with tolerating cheating, but the charge was later dismissed and academy officials entire matter a misunderstanding.
The cadet honor code says, "A cadet will not tie, steal, cheat nor tolerate those who
In testimony before a Senate Armed Services subcommittee, Hoffmann announced what he said were extraordinary measures for an extraordinary situation.
Heffmann left to the cadets any changes in the honor code at West Point and said the cadet honor committee is now compiling information on the mandatory expulsion sanction.
"All concerned are agreed that there have been institutional shortcomings in communications, on honor matters as well as in the way they handled corps of cadets and that this occurred in the context of confusion revolving around questions usually expressed 'who runs the honor system' or 'who does the honor belong to'," Hoffmann told the panel.
The Army secretary's testimony was critical of the administration of the nation's oldest military academy, caught up in the turmoil since a scandal involving a quarter of the cadet class of 1977 erupted in April.
North Korea says U.S. trying to 'force a conflict'
SEOUL, South Korea (AP)—North Korea's official Communist newspaper accused U.S. warships of entering North Korea waters yesterday to "force a conflict" over the killing last Wednesday of two Japanese soldiers in the Korean demilitarized zone.
In a show of force, Washington rushed two jet fighters squadrons to South Korea and dispatched a five-ship task force led by the aircraft carrier Midway into the area.
North Korean guards used axes and fists to kill the two Americans, who had entered the DMZ with South Korean soldiers to secure the area. The observation of North Korean outposts.
The tree, a 40-foot poplar, was chopped down Saturday by U.S. soldiers of the Americanized United Nations Command. The soldiers also took over Koreans about the 151-mile security zone.
At the same time, Robert Funseth, State Department spokesman, described an expression of regret by North Korea as a "concussion" after it was approached toward conciliation, although
Funseth said the note from North Korea Kim II-sung still was "unacceptable."
America, he said, would insist at the armservice commission meeting that "our

Egyptians catch Arabs in hijacking
Apparently their mission was to determine that there were only three hijackers instead of the originally reported seven and to see what arms they carried.
CAIRO (AP) - Egyptian troops disguised as mechanics stabbed aboard a hijacked Boeing 731 airliner yesterday in the southern city of Luxor and overpowered three Arab gunmen who had threatened to shoot the aircraft and 100 hostages aboard.
Egyptian Prime Minister Mandouh Salem, a former police chief who supervised the operation, said the three Arabs had been arrested. He said they had carried Jordanian and Kuwaiti passports and a Palestinian identity card.
Salem told a news conference after his return from Luxor that the rescue attempt began when an officer crept beneath the carriage and the aircraft and the air out of the wheels.
An official statement said there had been 95 passengers aboard the aircraft. Egyptair said earlier that the plane carried five crew members.
The hijackers commanded the plane of tourists—mostly French and Japanese—early yesterday during a flight from Caro to Libya. The hijackers ordered the plane to Libya, the pilot told them he didn't have enough fuel, according to Interior Ministry officials. The Egyptian jeluhr then continued to Luxor, a city near the site of ancient tombs and temples.
The control tower informed the hijackers that the plane had developed mechanical trouble and could not go on to Benghazi. Libya, as the hijackers had demanded.
WELCOME BACK JAYHAWKS
Salem the hijackers confessed they carried out the skyjacking on the orders of the gunman and then asked the hijackers told him Khadhy promised them $250,000 if they forced the plane to Libya. The gunman had demanded the release of five Arab prisoners held in Eretv.
Two of the gunmen were injured during the melee that followed and to take a chance, they jumped from the ceiling.
There was no report of Americans aboard the plane.
Officials' charged that Libya was responsible for a bomb blast in an Alexandra railway station Aug. 14 that attacked eight 60 wounded. Libya denied the charge.
None of the passengers and crew were injured in the successful rescue assault, similar to taceds employed by Israel during attacks at Lod airport near Tel Aviv in 1972.
Neighboring Libya has become Egypt's main enemy in recent weeks.
