Saudi, Syria sign
second cease-fire
BEIRUT — The guns fell silent
around Beirut today as a cease-fire
worked out by the United States
• and Saudi Arabia halted
Lebanon's three-week-old civil
war.
The roar of artillery, rockets and
mortars that shook the Lebanese
capital throughout the night stop
ped at 6 a.m. (midnight Sunday
EDT), the deadline set for the
cease-fire.
Agreement on the cease-fire was
announced late Sunday by Syrian
Foreign Minister Abdul Halim
Khaddam and Saudi mediator
Prince Bandar Bin Sultan in
Damascus, and by Lebanese
Prime Minister Shafik Wazzan in
Beirut. These officials did not
disclose details of the agreement,
which calls for the warring fac
tions to participate in a national
reconciliation conference.
The announcement came a few
hours after a renewed attack near
U.S. Marine positions at Beirut air
port. Four Marines were wounded
Sunday.
Khaddam, at a news conference
in Damascus, said, "An agreement
has been reached for a cease-fire
in Lebanon, ending the war and
starting a national dialogue. What
was achieved is great."
"We appeal to all our Lebanese
brothers to go beyond the blood
shed and the hatred in order to
start the building of Lebanon," he
said.
Earlier Sunday evening, Chris
tian neighborhoods in East Beirut
came under heavy shelling.
Army rehearses
mass burials
FRANKFURT - The U.S. Army's
rehearsal of mass burials of bat
tlefield dead has fed fears of
nuclear holocaust and drawn
angry responses in the news
media.
Not since Pres. Reagan said the
United States was prepared to
fight a limited nuclear war have
West German commentators
reacted with such sharp blasts at
U.S. military policy.
West German newsman Martin
Schulze condemned the grave
digging exercise as showing "total
lack of sensitivity." Photos of a
mass grave dug by an Army
bulldozer near Hanau recalled the
Third Reich's slaughter of Euro
pean Jews in World War II,
Schulze declared.
The rehearsal was conducted
last Tuesday by SO soldiers from
the 26th Supply and Service Com
pany in Hanau who are being
trained as graves registration per
sonnel, the Army said.
Lt. Col. Jim Lawson, an Army
spokesman, acknowledged that
the "job of burying people, a lot
of people" is something the
public doesn't want to think
about.
"That's what makes it necessary
to go through the exercise so that
people will know what to do —
God forbid - should it happen
again as it has in the past,
Lawson said.
Enroll this kid
PORTLAND - A Wilson High
School senior designed and wrote
a computer program that took the
tedium and hassle out of class
registration for his 1,800
classmates and their counselors
and teachers.
The "School Scheduling
System” devised by Brian McGill,
17, helps students enroll in their
choice of almost 200 classes, re
questing specific class times and
minimizing conflicts.
McGill tackled the project as a
sophomore in his first year of
computer class. He says he im
mersed himself in the concept for
months before actually beginning
to write the program.
Wilson administrators said the
program performed without a
hitch when it was first used this
fall.
"There weren't the long lines
and frustration levels” that usually
accompany registration, said
Donald Muno, Wilson's vice prin
cipal of curriculum.
Under the old system, students
had to go from station to station,
trying to fill their schedules with
classes and class times from an
ever-changing and dwindling list
of alternatives.
McGill said he is still fine-tuning
the program for possible commer
cial marketing. He said similar
programs can sell for $1,500.
Muno said the program would
probably sell. They said secondary
schools throughout the United
States are in the Stone Age when
it comes to scheduling.
Senate debates
Watt resignation
WASHINGTON - Oregon
Republican Senator Bob
Packwood predicted lames Watt
will not last another week as
Secretary of the Interior. Another
leading Senate Republican
declared Watt to be a "God
fearing man" and not a bigot, pro
mising Sunday to block a Senate
resolution calling for his
resignation.
Assistant Majority Leader Ted
Stevens, R-Alaska, said Watt made
a mistake last week in referring to
five advisers as "a black... a
woman, two Jews and a cripple."
But Stevens said Watt shouldn't
be driven from office for the
blunder.
"He's not a bigot. Jim Watt is a
God-fearing man who is really
quite a Christian gentleman,"
Stevens told reporters after an ap
pearance on CBS-TV’s "Face the
Nation," where he defended
Watt.
The Senate is scheduled to take
up debate Wednesday of a
Democratic-sponsored resolution
calling for Watt's resignation for
conduct ''totally unbefitting
a Packwood said party leaders
are concerned that without heavy
lobbying from the White House
the vote would be "very decisive”
against Watt. Packwood is one of
eight GOP senators who have call
ed on Watt to resign. Three others
— Robert Dole and Nancy
Kassebaum of Kansas and Pete V.
Domenici of New Mexico — have
stopped just short of calling for
Watt's resignation.
The highly unusual resolution
would have no legal impact on
Watt's position but would prove
embarrassing to the administra
tion if it showed large-scale
Republican opposition to a
member of the president's
Cabinet.
Packwood called Watt a "clear
liability" to the administration and
the GOP.
"We don't see the rest of the
Cabinet going around making de
meaning statements that do us no
good," Packwood said.
Reagan, who accepted a written
apology from Watt on Thursday,
remained mum Sunday about
whether he would keep him on.
Presidential spokesman Larry
Speakes told reporters, "I know of
no change in the Watt situation.
Situation stable."
