Leaders to attend rites
BONN—(UPI)—West Germany today prepared for an informal summit conference of President Johnson and other Western leaders coming to attend funeral rites for former Chancellor Konrad Adenauer.
Johnson, French President Charles de Gaulle and British Prime Minister Harold Wilson plan to attend in the greatest muster of world leaders since the November 1963, funeral of President John F. Kennedy.
The were expected to meet while attending Bundestag memorial rites here and funeral services at Cologne Tuesday.
Their talks here were expected to deal with the troubled Western alliance which formed the final concern and political testament of Adenauer, West Germany's post-war leader who died Wednesday at 91.
THERE WAS NO announced schedule for a summit meeting. But the opportunity was there. And West German Chancellor Kurt-Georg Kiesinger said Wednesday night he accepted an obligation to carry on Adenauer's work toward Western unity in a
final deathbed meeting with "Der Alte."
Summit topics could include Johnson and Wilson's push for a treaty banning the spread of nuclear weapons opposed by De Gaulle, Britain's bid for Common Market membership clouded by the Frenchman's past veto, the fate of the Kennedy round of tariff-cutting talks and the future of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) following French military withdrawal.
NICOSIA, Cyprus —(UPI)—A Swiss charter airliner carrying 128 persons, struck by lightning during a pelting hailstorm, slammed into a hill in flames today and disintegrated.
Swiss air crash kills 124
Civil aviation officials said 124 persons died in the flaming disaster which hurled wreckage, battered toys and souveniers of a cut-rate Asian vacation over a muddy field.
The four survivors, all critically injured, were rushed from the debris strewn hillside three miles from Cyprus International
Airport to a United Nations field hospital for immediate surgery. Three other crash victims who survived the initial impact died en route.
The ill-fated Bangkok to Zurich flight was Switzerland's worst aviation disaster. Only five other air accidents in history have caused greater loss of life.
The passengers included an estimated 40 to 50 Swiss tourists. The rest were vacationing Europeans. No Americans were reported among the 120 passengers and eight crew members.
Strike threatens Catholic college
WASHINGTON—(UPI) Students and professors alike today boycotted classes at Catholic University of America in a protest against the firing of a liberal theologian. The walk-out all but shut down the school.
The 33-year-old assistant professor of moral theology, noted for his liberal views on birth control, was dimissed from his job by school officials, touching off the walkout.
Most of the school's 6,600 students and nearly all its faculty stayed away from classes in the second day of demonstrations against the firing of Father Charles E. Curran.
Airport officials said the fourengine, British-built Britannia turbo-prop slammed into a hill about three miles south of the runway where it was to make an emergency landing.
ABOUT 200 STUDENTS, including many nuns and priests, demonstrated in front of Caldwell Hall as the time for classes to begin rolled around. They laughed and sang, although their spokesmen were, not optimistic about their chances of getting the popular Father Curran rehired.
The faculty at America's only national Catholic university scheduled a meeting later today to further plan its strategy for getting Father Curran reinstated.
Professors in the departments of religious education and psychology and the schools of philosophy and common law voted in separate meetings to strike until Father Curran was rehired.
The committee suggested that the so-called credibility gap stems, in part at least, from the fact that the White House has "an unjustified preoccupation with domestic political considerations" instead of being candid about the course of the war.
parent. "This tendency, although evident with respect to many kinds of news, is most damaging in connection with Vietnam," the committee said.
It was sharply critical of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration for its handling of public information about the Jan. 27 Apollo - moon capsule fire in which three astronauts perished.
Editors accuse LBJ of news manipulation
The committee made the charge in a report presented to the ASNE's annual convention, a three-day affair which opened here today with more than 500 of journalism's big names in attendance.
