Ford operates M plants in Woman Accuses Attack Suspect PORTLAND (AP) A 26-year-old student, already under investi gation in the death of a woman, was accused today of attacking another woman last summer. Police arrested Richard Benja min Schwensen, an education stu dent at Portland State College, after Paula Joan Nesting, 31, ac cused him of breaking into her home and beating her with a pistol in an attempt to rape her last July. Detective Earl Sims said that under questioning Schwensen ad mitted the attack, and then changed his story about the death last month of Mrs. Ted Bussey, 29, Portland, who was found dead in her parked car on a Portland street last month. Sims said that Schwensen now admits that he had sexual inter course with Mrs. Bussey and was with her at the time of death. His earlier story was that he met the woman at a bar but left her after she gave him a ride home in her car. Sims said Schwensen's story now is that they parked a while, and that he drove the car while they went to Bonneville Dam, the woman apparently dying while en route. Pathologists earlier said the woman died from an air bubble in her blood stream. No charge has been filed in the death of Mrs. Bussey. In the case of Miss Nesting, Schwensen was booked on a charge of assault. Sims said bond was set at $50,000.

Andel Karim Zahredin told reporters Tresday that was the reason the Syrian army rose Scientists Say Titov Got Sick WASHINGTON (AP) Soviet! astronaut Gherman Titov was I somewhat seasick during most of his 25 hours in orbit ground the j earth, Soviet scientists reported; today. They said preliminary Indies-j tions were that the nausea was ( the result of extended weightless ness. In a paper for presentation to the Intci notional Astronautic Ked-j eration O. G. Gazenko and V. J. Vazdovsky of the Soviet Academy of Sciences noted that neither l!C Qtrna,,. AN. Ghana:-! whn spent five minutes under condi tions of weightlessness, nor Soviet astronaut Yuri Gagarin, who en dured zero gravity for .nore than an hour, noted any comparable disturbances. One of the medical questions raised by the prospect of space travel has been whether the hu man system could endure long periods without the familiar ef fects of gravity. The paper said Titov retained "a sufficient level of working capacities" at all times and his principal bodily functions were not harmfully affected. However, it continued, he felt during weight lessness unpleasant sensations as sociated with the ear chamber. Balance is regulated in the inner ear. These sensations became strong er and stronger during the flight, especially when Titov turned his head sharply or was observing swiftly moving objects. For some time after Titov woke from his nap the sensations de creased, but they did not disap pear until he began to feel the spaceship's deceleration on its re turn into the atmosphere. "Thus, the sensation of some discomfort accompanied the con siderable portion of the flight and resembled seasickness," the pa per said.
