'BEIRUT, Lebanon (UPI) Christian militia officialS
charged yesterday that Syrian gunners opened up with
prolonged artillery fire on a resort town northeast of Beirut in
the worst flare up since the Oct. 7 cease-fire.
, The Christian Phalangist party radio said three people were
killed and one house destroyed. The militia officials said at
least 20 shells had landed within 90 minutes on the town of
Bickfaya in a bombardment that began shortly after nightfall.
Independent confirmation of the report was not immediately
nyailable, and there was no Statement from the Syrian
ominated Arab peace-keeping force.
Bickfaya was the scene of heavy artillery duels earlier in the
mdnth between the Syrians and Israeli-armed Christian
rightist militias both in Beirut and hill towns inland. It is the
home of Phalangist party leader Pierre Gemayel, who con-
trots the largest Christian fighting force.
Earlier yesterday Prime Minister Selim al Floss and a panel

a new formula for Lebanese national unity.

Rightist officials said that while their irregulars respected
the cease-fire, Syrian troops maintained a stegdy barrage of
sniper fire'along suburban confrontation lines, wounding a
rightist militia, a Lebanese policeman and a number of
civilians.
Hoss and his ministerial panel began discussions on how to
translate the current, truce into a permanent peace, thus
enabling the country's political leaders to work on a new
formula for coexistence.
Also on the agenda were the resolutions passed at a recent
meeting of Arab foreign ministers, political sources said.
The pro-Syrian newspaper As Safir said the Hoss committee
will seek to:
Consolidate Lebanon's unity, independence and
sovereignty so the state may exercise its authority in all.parts
of the country.
End military manifestations by irregulars and collect
their heavy weapons.

IFC opposes police guns
The Interfraternity Council voted last
night to oppose the arming of campus
police with .38 caliber guns until viable
alternatives are presented.
."They haven't given us alternatives,"
Brad Merkel of Alpha Tau Omega said
during a discussion of the issue. "If we
take a stand now, we should say no,
indicating that we want more time and
more alternatives."
Some members of the Council said
they preferred to postpone a vote until
more information could be gathered by
IFC members.
Flaherty gets surprise
visitor at campaign spot
BETHLEHEM (AP) Democratic
gubernatorial candidate Peter F.
Flaherty, who came courting the
business vote at a Chamber of Com
merce luncheon here yesterday, was
greeted with a surprise David
Marston.
The former U.S. attorney for eastern
Pennsylvania was on the stump in
northeastern Pennsylvania on behalf of
Richard L. Thornburgh, who defeated
the Philadelphia resident for the
Republican gubernatorial nomination.
Their joint appearance before a
bipartisan audience of about 100 persons
at the Holiday Inn produced an im
promptu question-and-answer session
that touched on the subject of Flaherty's
running mate.
Said Flaherty: "I don't think it should
be a crime to be a teacher and a small
businessman and want to run for
lieutenant governor of the state."
10-stop tour for Thornburgh

From the streets to the Steelers
HANOVER ( AP) In a motorized
whistle-stop swing through York County
yesterday, Republican gubernatorial
candidate Richard L. Thornburgh mixed
street campaigning with a series of
private meetings and news media in
terviews.
"Hello, I'm running for governor," the
46-year-old former prosecutor said to a
customer in National Central Bank here.
"Which party?" said Raymon Dubs, a
registered Democrat.
"Which party do you think can clean
up Harrisburg?" Thornburgh came
back.
"Not the Democrats," said Dubs, who
later added he is undecided about his
final choice for governor.
The day included 10 stops for Thorn
burgh, whose entourage traveled in a 27-
foot recreation vehicle. He addressed a
meeting of the Pennsylvania Association
of Broadcasters, lifted cement blocks at
a construction site, and renewed his
attacks on the Democratic candidate for
lieutenant governor, Robert P. Casey.
Then he attended a $2O-a-head fun
draiser at Harrisburg's Host Inn before
flying back to Pittsburgh to watch the
Steelers play the Houston Oilers.
Later at the fundraiser, Thornburgh

him only eight points behind, down.from
the 32 points•his poll showed him behind
in May.
"To the many of you who will be in
front of your television sets tonight and
hearing the words of Howard Cosell,
that, my friends, is momentum," said
Thornburgh, who was interrupted six
times by the 100 people who paid $2O a
head to sip cocktails and munch on
snacks.
"The opposition is floundering. Their
camapign is coming apart at the seams.
Dick Thornburgh and Bill Scranton are
going to bury Pete Flaherty and Bob
Casey," he added.
He pointed to the campaign of former
President Gerald Ford,-who started out
30 points behind in the polls only to lose
to Jimmy Carter by one-half of one
percent of the vote, and Thornburgh
The vote was taken, however, in
response to a request by the Un
dergraduate Student Government
Executive Council and to most of the
members' desires to reply.
IFC also voted to support a resolution
calling for the University to divest of its
investments in companies with South
African holdings, and voted to approve
funding for an all-Greek newsletter to be
published by IFC and the Panhellenic
Council.
In York, Thornburgh walked five
doors up from his own headquarters to
speak in front of the former site of a Bob
Casey for Governor building. The for
mer auditor general lost his bid for the
Democratic nomination to Peter F.
Flaherty, but a school teacher with the
same name is now Flaherty's running
mate.
"You don't see any headquarters for
Bob Casey the imposter in this race,"
Thornburgh said. Later, at one of his
eight interviews of the day, Thornburgh
pointed to Flaherty's record of leaving
the office he is in.
The former Pittsburgh mayor un
successfully ran for the U.S. Senate in
1974, left Pittsburgh to take a job as
deputy U.S. Attorney General, and then

Flaherty then took a jab at Thorn
burgh's experience in government.
"Thornburgh has no record except as
prosecutor. I have a proven record as an
administrator while I was the mayor of
Pittsburgh," he said.
Earlier yesterday, Flaherty spoke at
an AFL-CIO meeting at the Sheraton
Hotel in Scranton where he attempted to
score points with about 200 members of
the labor group.
Jim Mahoney, the AFL-ClO's chief
labor lobbyist in the state, introduced
Flaherty saying: "Peter Flaherty has
this election won. Every poll says we
want a candidate who speaks out on the
issues. Pete Flaherty is going to be a
great governor but he needs a con
sensus."
In Wilkes-Barre, Sam Bianco, district
manager of the 2,200-member In
ternational Ladies Garment Workers
Union, said of Flaherty: "He's a man of
exhorted his supporters to work even
harder.
"I want you to wake up the day after
the election bone-tired and weary but
with a smile on your face and a twinkle
in your eye with a big victory for Penn
sylvania," he said.
Following the fundraiser at
Harrisburg's Host Inn, Thornburgh
concluded his 14-hour day by flying back
to his Pittsburgh home to watch the
Steelers-Houston Oilers game on
television.

we're supporting him."
Pennsylvania labor unions, in general,
aren't really gung-ho about either
gubernatorial candidate.
For the record, most of the state's
unions the AFL-CIO affiliates and big
independents such as the United Auto
Workers have ended up waving the
flag for Flaherty.
Thornburgh has the endorsement of
the 190,000-member Pennsylvania State
Education Association and the 40,000-
member Pennsylvania Federation of
Teachers.
Many labor leaders reportedly are
troubled by an incident that occurred in
the second year of Flaherty's first term
as Pittsburgh mayor.
Labor gasped when Flaherty picked
up trash himself during a city sanitation
workers' strike and it cringed when he
sliced 1,400 jobs from the city payroll.
left that post to run for Governor despite
a pledge to President Carter he would
serve four years.
/"He's a job hunter. We've got a Senate
race in 1980. In the event he follows his
normal course, he's going to leave us
with an unknown, Robert P. Casey.
That's why we want to smoke him out,"
Thornburgh said.
Last week, Flaherty said he has no
intentions of running for the Senate
again.
"I will not be a candidate in 1980 win
or lose," he said.
"Those kinds of commitments don't
mean a darn thing," countered Thorn
burgh.
At the broadcasters convention,
Thornburgh pledged to have "an open
door policy" with the news media.
"In the primary, we made a com
mitment to open government. And as
governor, I would make extensive use of
press conferences, town meetings and
state of the commonwealth addresses,"
he said.
Accompanying Thornburgh in the
street campaigning were Republican
Congressman William Goodling of the
19th District and state Rep. Donald
Dorr, R-York.
