U.S. Departure May Be Delayed, Officials Hint Washington -ITT Official sources said yesterday the de parture from Lebanon of all the 7,500 American troops still there might be delayed if Lebanese political unrest flares dangerously. The state and defense de partments still plan to have the last soldier out by Oct. 31. Officials said that for the mo ment they saw no reason to change that schedule. But they cautioned that continued strife between anti-government mobs and the new ad ministration of President Fuad Chehab might alter the situ ation. Key To Future Key to the immediate fu ture, in the opinion of quali fied officials, lies in the forth coming meeting of the Leban ese parliament where Chehab was said he intends to de mand approval of the new cabinet headed by Premier Rashid Karami. Chehab has said he hopes to call parlia ment next Thursday. Former President Camille Chamoun, the pro-American leader whose plea to Washing ton last July brought U. S. marines to save his tottering regime from foreign - backed rebel assaults, strongly op poses the new cabinet because it failed to include any of his supporters. Chamoun Claims Adherents Chamoun claims he has enough adherents in the par liament, 34 or 35 of the 66 members, to block confirma tion of the Karami govern ment. American officials doubt this. But if Chamoun proves correct and parliament rejects the cabinet. President Chehab is expected to order general elections to select a new par liament. The fear here is that this could lead to new disorders throughout the country and a division of the political bat tles in half-Christian half-Mos lem Lebanon along religious lines a fearful prospect which so far has been avoided Seattle Girl Dies As Car Collides In Avoiding Deer Cannon Beach - (UPD A head-on collision on a foggy stretch of Highway 101 Fri day night fatally injured Carmen MacCurdy, 19, Seat tle, when the car she was riding in veered into another vehicle after hitting a deer.
