B—The Daily Collegian Thursday, Nov. 2i‘, 1985 state/nation/world Colombian rebels make death threats BOGOTA, Colombia (AP) - A message purporting to come from leftist rebels yesterday said one of their leaders has returned home from Libya with 100 Palestinian guerrillas to help overthrow the government “as a Christmas gift to Colombians." The telephoned message said it was from the April 19 Movement, whose guerrillas seized the Palace of Jus tice two weeks ago and fought the army for two days in a siege that left 95 people dead. Soon after the message was re ceived, groups of soldiers began showing up throughout this city of 6 million people, frisking civilians and hauling those without papers away in trucks. Armored cars armed with machine guns and 20mm cannons cruised the downtown area and other parts of the city. The daily newspaper 5 P.M., owned by Liberal Party politicians, said the statement purporting to come from the April 19 Movememt, also known as M-19, was taped and played in a telephone call to its offices. On Nov. 6, M-19 guerrillas as saulted and occupied the Palace of Justice. The army attacked the feder al court building and when the fight ing was oyer 28 hours after the siege began, 95 persons were dead, includ ing 11 Supreme Court justices and 33 other judges. All 35 guerrillas were killed. M-19, which professes Cuban ideol ogy, has about 3,000 combatants, mil itary intelligence officers said.

Yesterday’s message said the Pal estinians were brought to Colombia by Rosemberg Pabon, who led an attack on the Dominican Republic Embassy in Bogota six years ago in which 17 ambassadors were taken hostage during a reception. Colombia broke diplomatic rela tions with Cuba in 1981, claiming Fidel Castro’s army had trained and equipped about 130 M-19 field com manders and sent them back to start a revolution.

A police spokesman said the fighting between Zulu and Pondo tribesmen was not politically motivated. Police headquarters said Monday’s official report of rioting in the small farming center of Queenstown in the eastern Cape Province mistakenly omitted the deaths of five Blacks shot by riot patrols. Including those five deaths, police have reported 16 Blacks killed since Sunday near Queenstown, 400 miles south of Johannesburg, making it one of the bloodiest riot sites in months. Durban Police Capt. Winston Heunis said two men wounded in the tribal fighting at Malagazi, just south of Durban, died in a hospital after police recovered six stabbed bodies.

The two groups, who live together in the shanty community of about 20,000, have been at odds for more than a year. Heunis said there appeared to be no political motive in the fighting, and police headquarters in Pretoria did not include the clash in its summary of daily riot incidents. Battles between rival tribes and among factions within the same tribe occur periodically in Natal Province, center of the nation’s 6 million Zulus. The Pondos are part of the Xhosa tribe, the nation’s second-largest black group, which lives in southern Natal. The white-led government often points to such tribal infighting to bolster its argument that Blacks cannot govern the ethnically and racially divided nation. Anti-apartheid activists contend the government exac erbates tribal distinctions by giving Blacks political rights only in tribal homelands and encouraging tribal bureaucracies. ANGRY?

The Reagan administration’s long standing feud with women’s groups took on an international dimension after the Washington Post, in a story Monday about first lady Nancy Rea gan’s schedule at the summit, quoted Regan as saying of women: “They’re not .. . going to under stand (missile) throw-weights or what is happening in Afghanistan or what is happening in human rights. Some women will, but most women believe me, your readers for the most part if you took a poll would rather read the human interest stuff of what happened.” Feminists demanded an apology, calling Regan’s comments unbelieva ble but typical of the administration’s attitude toward women. The New York Times criticized Regan in an editorial, saying that “by reaching to pat the little woman on the head, Mr. Regan reveals himself to be a very little man.” The traveling White House declined to comment, and Regan, through an aide, refused an opportunity to ampli fy or clarify his remarks in the Post. But Reagan, asked by reporters about the f-emark, said, “I don’t think he meant for it to be interpreted in that' way at all. He was simply adding to that interest, that they also had an interest in children and a human touch. I think that I know his views on the entire subject better than most.” Nancy Reagan said she hadn’t seen the Post story. But asked whether women concerned themselves with substantive issues, she replied, “I’m sure they do.” Feminist Bella Abzug, a former New York congresswoman, said Re gan’s remark was an insult to all women and was based on mens’ fear of sharing power with the other sex. “It’s not true that women don’t care and don’t know. Women know a lot more than men want to concede,” she said. state news briefs NASA test colors Pennsylvania skies NORFOLK, Va. (AP) A NASA rocket experiment yesterday painted the dawn sky with green and red chemical clouds seen by early risers in Pennsylvania. “Our dog was really scared of it and wanted to come back into the house,” said Barbara Rineer of Millersville, Pa. The rocket was sent up from the NASA Wallops Island Flight Center on Virginia’s Eastern Shore. Joyce Milliner, a spokeswoman for the center, said scientists tracked the release of the chemicals to photograph the earth’s magnetic field. “It makes an invisible phenomenon visible,” she said. The experiment had to be done under clear skies at dawn or dusk when the moon was dark, she said. “Most of the calls I received were from radio and TV stations,” she said. “They had received a lot of calls from the public.” In Pittsburgh, several callers contacted the Buhl Planetarium for an explanation. “Our best description was that it ‘started as a pinpoint in the eastern sky, exploding to a red ball like fireworks, five times the diameter of the moon, leaving two trails glowing 40 degrees off the horizon,’ ” said Paul Oles, director of the planetarium. nation news briefs Whereabouts of senator unknown COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) A 23-year veteran of the state Senate hasn’t been seen in public since July, and when she failed to show up for this week’s legislative sessions some of her friends at the Ohio Statehouse got worried. Sen. Marigene Valiquette “has been missing from the Senate, and I haven’t seen her for months,” said state Sen. Oliver Ocasek. “She’s a very dear friend of mine and I wish she would come back. I don’t have any leads, and I’m getting a little bit concerned.” Even the Toledo Democrat’s secretary, Shari Josephs, claims not to know Valiquette’s whereabouts. Josephs told The Blade of Toledo that she has no telephone number for the senator and does not know where she lives. Valiquette, 61, has no legislative aides. “I really can’t tell you anything,” Josephs said yesterday. Asked if she thought Valiquette was all right, she said, “I don’t know that, but I’m sure she is.” Police in Columbus and Toledo said Valiquette had not been reported missing, but colleagues say they have not seen her in Columbus since July, when the General Assembly broke for the summer. Her last public appearance in Toledo was in May 1984, when she attended a dinner for a local union official. State Rep. Barney Quilter said Valiquette called him Sept. 19 to say she would miss an event in Toledo to which she had been invited. Because Republicans have a three-vote majority in the 33-mem ber Senate, Valiquette’s absence has not affected any bills in the current session. Yesterday, she failed to answer roll calls for the fifth day. Tom Smith, an aide to the state Senate’s Democratic caucus, said Valiquette was present for 95 percent of the votes in the Senate last year, making her about average among state senators. The senate clerk’s office has no home telephone number for Valiquette and lists only a post office box as her Toledo address. Democratic leaders of the Senate also do not know how to reach her. “We never knew in Columbus where she did live,” Ocasek said. “She had different places, different hotels. She would never tell us.” Valiquette lived in Toledo with her mother for many years before her mother died in 1980, colleagues said. Since then, she has spent most of her time in Columbus. The county now is trying to foreclose on the Toledo home because of $1,921 in unpaid taxes. Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicle records show Valiquette’s address in Toledo as the home of a longtime friend and campaign worker, Mary Jane Gill. Gill told the Toledo newspaper she did not know where Valiquette was. Gulf Coast prepares for Kate PENSACOLA, Fla. (AP) Storm-weary residents of the Upper Gulf Coast braced yesterday for Hurricane Kate, which battered Cuba for 16 hours with its 115 mph wind and blacked out much of the Florida Keys as it charged northward into the Gulf of Mexico. Forecasters said a Gulf weather buoy buffeted by the storm yesterday recorded 135 mph gusts. Gov. Bob Graham declared a state of emergency in 12 counties along Florida’s northern Gulf Coast, including eight coastal coun ties in the panhandle, where Graham recommended the evacuation of residents in low-lying areas. The storm killed up to 10 people in Cuba. “It’s a here-we-go-again kind of a deal,” said Joe Hunt, an Okaloosa County Civil Defense spokesman at Shalimar on Flor ida’s Panhandle. Low-lying areas of the Peninsula were evacuated twice when Elena approached in September and residents were prepared to evacuate again last month before Juan veered into Louisiana. “We just wonder if somebody isn’t picking on us,” said Plaquemines Sheriff’s Deputy Eddie Nolan in southeast Louisiana, where people were still recovering from high water and damages left by Juan, that state’s third hurricane this year. Forecasters at the National Hurricane Center in Coral Gables, near Miami, said Kate could be near the coast by late today.. world news briefs MIA searchers find pieces of planes YEN THUONG, Vietnam (AP) U.S. and Vietnamese workers yesterday found more pieces of a U.S. airplane the government says is a B-52 that crashed in a rural garden 13 years ago. Human bone fragments were found earlier, but it has not been determined whether they are the remains of American airmen. The pieces of metal and fabric-like material put the joint excavation team closer to confirming the Vietnamese report that an American bomber with four airmen aboard crashed after it was struck by missiles in December 1972. However, U.S. military experts at the site nine miles from Hanoi said they could not yet draw any firm conclusions from the bone fragments nor determine if the plane was a B-52. Sgt. Randal Nash of the Army’s Central Identification Laborato ry said the wreckage included wire, aluminum and pieces of the lining of fuel tanks. Stencilled on one piece was the English word “fuel.” But he said it was too early to say what kind of aircraft it was because the items are common to many different kinds of aircraft. Col. Joe Harvey, head of the U.S. team, said they had inspected the bone fragments found Tuesday and determined they were human remains, but “we can’t (conclude) anything more about them so far.” U.S. experts said yesterday they had collected about 18 bone fragments, but added they could be Vietnamese and not American. The excavation by 10 Vietnamese and 12 Americans is the first joint effort to account for the 1,797 Americans listed as missing in action from the Vietnam War. Maj. Johnie Webb of the Army laboratory said he did not know if the excavation at this agricultural commune of 500 people would be completed by Nov. 30 as scheduled. “We think we’re making good progress,” he said. The excavation began Tuesday with workers using a 7.5-ton tractor flown in by the Americans to dig in the garden of 60-year-old Nguyen Thi Teo, who says her husband and son were killed when the bomber crashed. The Americans said they may have to take down Nguyen’s brick house since many pieces of wreckage were found under the corner of the garden next to it. One house used as a kitchen was demolished earlier to get the tractor into the garden.
