6—The Daily Collegian Thursday, Sept. 23, 1982 state/nation/world House votes to fund government through Dec. 15 WASHINGTON (AP) The House passed 242-161 yesterday a huge, catch-all money bill needed to keep the government in business after the Oct. 1 dawn of the new fiscal year. The measure also virtually guar antees there will be a lame-duck session of Congress after the Novem ber elections. The Senate is likely to take up the measure next Tuesday. As cleared by the House, the bill 'would keep the government in money ,only through Dec. 15, forcing Con gress to return to work after the Nov. ;3 elections to resume work on regular San Francitcans bid farewell to historic cablecars By STEVE WILSTEIN Associated Press Writer SAN FRANCISCO The clanging bells of. San Francisco's cable cars fellsilent yester day after a ride cheered by hundreds of fans, the last until a two-year, $5B million overhaul is completed. Car No. 7, the one Humphrey Bogart rode before setting up a rendezvous with Lauren Bacall in the 1947 movie, "Dark Passage," ended its run up and down the steep hills of Powell Street at 4:48 a.m. Gripman Joe Batiste, who won a drawing to work the last ride, rang the bells as the trip drew to a close. Horns honked. Specta tors whistled and hooted. Hundreds of nostalgic cable car fans stayed up all night after a farewell parade and street party to watch the last clacking car roll into the Cable Car Barn in the pre dawn fog. Seven minutes later, at 4:55 a.m., Richard Sklar, general manager of the city's Public Utilities Commission, PUC vice president Nancy Lenvin and veteran cable splicers Fred Mueller and Otis Fleming pressed a button shutting Own The giant greased wheels that haul the cable powering the cars. Jim Waterfield, a conductor for the past 15 years, guided the last car through the crowd and said, "it feels sort of lonely, now that it's over."

That is a victory for President Reagan, who last week requested a lame-duck session for precisely that purpose. Originally, majority Democrats fa vored an expiration date of Feb. 28. But they relented during floor debate and suggested the Dec. 15 expiration. Even that didn't exactly satisfy Republicans, who attempted to push through a change that would have the funding authority expire when Con gress adjourns for the year. That also would have forced a lame-duck ses sion, but it failed, 215-188. The measure is designed to replace other employees of the transit system gath ered for a breakfast and beer bash across the street from the barn when the ceremo nies ended. The youngest rider on the last car was 5- month-old Joseph McClure, who lay quietly in his mother Diane's arms, seemingly oblivious to the commotion around him. Bystanders put coins beneath the wheels of the last cablecar in San Francisco yesterday. The cars are in for a 20-month layoff as the city renovates the cars, rail lines and garage. the regular money bills that Congress normally debates and approves each year. None of the 13 bills has yet been sent to Reagan for his signature. The House has approved four, but the Senate has yet to act on a single one. "We face the closedown of the whole government" if the measure is defeated,. said Rep. Jamie Whitten, D-Miss., chairman of the House Ap propriations Committee. "We cannot afford to risk that." "If we defeat this, as sure as I'm standing here, there,will be no funds for these programs on Oct. 1," agreed "He'll be two years old when the cars come back and it's something I think he'll get a kick out of when he hears about it later on," Mrs. McClure said. Her husband, Mi chael, has been a gripman for 10 years. Thousands of tourists and residents lined San Francisco's streets Tuesday to snap final photos of the , cable cars, which were the committee's top Republican, Rep. Silvio Conte of Massachusetts. In general, the bill provides for operations to continue at the existing level, or a level contained in a sepa rate bill passed by either house, whichever is lower. One major exception is defense spending, where the 1982 level would remain in effect only until the House Appropriations Committee completes work on next year's bill, probably sometime next week. • The budget Congress has approved for next year calls for about $32 billion more for defense than the current year, meaning that Reagan's proposed defense buildup would be hampered if current spending levels were maintained. In addition to the dispute over the expiration date, critics of the mea sure complained that the terms of debate prohibited separate votes on several controversial provisions. Among them was aid to Israel, which will continue in the measure at the 1982 livels. Rep. Pete McCloskey, R-Calif., said that continuing aid at 1982 levels laden with hundreds of balloons, bunches of streaming ribbons, Japanese lanterns and pots of flowers for a farewell parade over Nob Hill. Every cable car journey begins with the classic "two bells." The next time "two bells" will be heard will be in about 20 months. could pose a threat to the 800 Marines whom Reagan has ordered into Leb anon as part of a peacekeeping force. "I think Marines can die" if they are made the victims of the anti-Israel feelings, that the Lebanese harbor as a result of the recent massacre of Palestinians, he said. By providing more aid than Reagan requested earlier this year, McClos key said, the United States is "com plicitous in the massacre that occurred" when Lebanese Christian militia moved past occupying Israeli troops and killed unarmed Palestin ians in two refugee camps. Poland suggests elimination 4» of Solidarity ' WARSAW, Poland (AP) The martial-law government launched one 'of its strongeg attacks on 'Solidarity, suggesting yesterday that the suspended independent union may be eliminated. The government daily Rzeczpospolita Republic said it was "hard to imagine a situation when the name of the union, bur dened with such a bad record, would return to KV public life as if nothing had happened. Activ ists of the suspended union . . . should have thought better of the political consequences of their actions." The latest government slap at Solidarity came as . Pope John Paul H, speaking at his weekly general audience in the Vatican, lent 4 q) his support to a statement issued last week by Poland's Roman Catholic bishops backing the right of workers to independent unions. "How many are the trials and concerns of my country!". the pope said in his brief remarks delivered in Polish at the operi-air audience in St. Peter's Square. it) The Polish government newspaper's lengthy commentary was signed by an "ob server," a signature usually reserved for the daily's toughest statements. It seemed to indicate the'authorities are preparing further action against the union, which was sus pended by martial law last Dec. 13. state news briefs Alert sounds at Berwick nuclear plant BEACH HAVEN, Pa.
