BARRETT PHONE 2-2202 Cyprus Eyes Reports 0( Mysterious Arms Nicosia, Cyprus (U.R) Offi cial sources admitted today that Field Marshal Sir John Harding is giving "serious consideration" to reports that Cypriot extrem its are being supplied with arms by a mysterious submarine. The reports, from a London source, appeared in local news papers. They said British troops reported spotting strange lights at sea while patrolling the lone ly east coast of Cyprus. And they claimed a captured mem ber of extremist pro-Greek or ganization told security forces last week he had orders to wait for a submarine bringing arms to the island. British authorities today warned villages at Phrenaros, near Famagusta, that refusal to give information last night's terrorist ambush of a British patrol would bring a heavy col lective fine. Two British troops were killed and three wounded in the attack.
