U.S. expels
55 Soviets
By BARRY SCHWEID
AP Diplomatic Writer
WASHINGTON, D.C. - The
Reagan administration yesterday
ordered 55 Soviet diplomats to
leave the country within nine
days, but said it hoped the action
would not sour the prospects for
arms control.
Five of the diplomats were de
clared “persona non grata” in
retaliation for the earlier expul
sion of five U.S. diplomats from
Moscow. The additional 50 were
ordered out to bring the Soviet
embassy staff in Washington and
consulate staff in San Francisco
“to parity” with the size of the
U.S. contingent in Moscow and
Leningrad.
State Department spokesman
Charles E. Redman announced the
massive retaliation with “re
grets,” but said it was forced on
the administration by the Soviet
Union.
Redman also sought to assure
Moscow that the United States did
not want to lose the momentum
achieved at President Reagan’s
summit meeting in Iceland with
Soviet leader Mikhail S. Gorba
chev.
Pilot error, weather blamed for crash
By JAMES F. SMITH
Associated Press Writer
JOHANNESBURG, South Africa -
Pilot error and bad weather probably
caused the plane crash that killed
Mozambique’s leader and 33 other
people, newspapers said yesterday,
but Zambia’s president blamed South
Africa.
' Mozambique said that in addition to
President Samora Machel the dead
included four Soviet crew members,
two Cuban doctors, the ambassadors
to Mozambique of Zaire and Zambia,
and senior government officials. Ten
people survived the Sunday night
crash just inside South Africa.
Marcelino dos Santos, the No. 2
man in the Marxist ruling party and a
possible successor to Machel, said the

“This problem of espionage is an
important one, but it is a separate
problem, and our plan is to go
ahead with the dialogue.”
The administration is preparing
new arms control proposals, based
on the summit meeting, to present

INNSBRUCK
U.S. writer nabbed in Beirut
By RODEINA KENAAN
Associated Press Writer
BEIRUT, Lebanon An under
ground group said yesterday it had
kidnapped an American writer of
children’s books, claiming the long
time resident of Beirut was a spy for
the United States and Israel.
A handwritten statement in Arabic
purportedly from the Revolutionary
Justice Organization said it had ab
ducted Edward Austin Tracy, 55, of
Rutland Vt., one of a few Americans
who stayed in Moslem west Beirut
despite the kidnapping of 60 foreign
ers there since January 1984.
Seven Americans are among the 20
kidnapped foreigners who still are
missing in Lebanon. The Revolution
ary Justice Organization, which is
believed made up of Shiite Moslems
loyal to Iran, earlier claimed to have
kidnapped another of the seven
Americans and three Frenchmen.
Yesterday’s brief statement was
delivered to a Western news agency
in west Beirut. It did not say where or
when Tracy was kidnapped.
State-run Beirut radio quoted po
lice sources it did not identify as
saying he disappeared Friday.
Accompanying the Revolutionary
Justice statement was a color photo
graph of Tracy showing him from the
waist up with a rough beard and
wearing a blue shirt. He stared dully
at the camera.
A photocopy of the first page of his
pilot as saying he believed he was
shot down, but the papers said pilot
error and weather apparently caused
the crash.
Business Day, a Johannesburg dai
ly, said the pilot apparently mistook a
radio beacon on Mozambique’s bor
der with South Africa for one at
Maputo airport.
The paper quoted Mozambican avi
ation sources as saying the pilot had
told the Maputo tower he had the
ruriWay in sight and was "positioned
right-hand down for runway 23 (the
main runway).” Then he reported he
“had lost it, ” and was told to make an
instrument landing.
His last radio message was that he
could not pick up the twin radio
beams used to guide the plane in by
instrument, the paper said.

American passport, also sent with the
statement, gave his birth date as
Nov. 20, 1930.
A U.S. Embassy spokesman said he
could not confirm Tracy had been
abducted, but added: “There is a guy
by the name of Edward Tracy from
Rutland, Vt., who was born in 1930.
Our latest information is that he has
lived in west Beirut lately, but we
haven’t heard of him lately.”
“This guy hasn’t had any contact
with the embassy in recent months,”
he said by telephone from the U.S.

Nudity:
N.Y. ban doesn't violate rights, judge says
By GEOFFREY TAYLOR
Associated Press Writer
ALBANY, N.Y. New York’s ban against public
nudity doesn’t infringe on an individual’s right of
freedom of expression, the state’s highest court ruled
yesterday.
In a unanimous decision, the state Court of Appeals
upheld $125 in fines imposed on Robert Hollman in 1984
for his nude sunbathing on the beach at Riis Park in the
New York City borough of Queens.
“Although defendant apparently has a specific phi
losophy regarding nudism, his mere nude appearance
did not create a great likelihood that his philosophy
would be imparted to the public,” wrote Judge Vito
Titone.
mission in Christian east Beirut. He
spoke on condition of anonymity.
The statement from Revolutionary
Justice said:
“In the name of the Almighty,
“The Revolutionary Justice Orga
nization announces the arrest of a
Jewish American spy called Edward
Austin Tracy after he was definitely
proven to be:
“A: Feeding the Mossad and the
CIA with information.
"B: Spying for the CIA.”
It made no ransom demands.
In Washington, White House
spokesman Larry Speakes said Tracy
“has no' connection with the U.S.
government” and was “another vic
tim of terrorism in Lebanon.”
Government officials in Israel de
clined comment on the allegations
that Tracy was linked to the Mossad
secret service.
In South Burlington, Vt., his mother
said Tracy was not in touch with her
for about 10 years until he began
writing regularly last year.
Doris Tracy, 78, said she was trou
bled by “the fact - that I don’t know
what he’s doing.”
“He never says what he’s doing” in
the more than 30 letters, she said.
Tracy, a slight, white-haired man,
was said to be'a friend of Yasser
Arafat before the Palestine Liber
ation Organization chief was driven
from Beirut by Israel’s 1982 invasion.
He was a well-known west Beirut
character and told acquaintances he
wrote children’s books. He also wrote
“Rather the likely message to viewers was that the
defendant, like many others on the beach, had doffed
his clothing to enhance his comfort, acquire an even
tan or simply display his body to others,” Titone
added.
“Significantly, the statute prohibits only public nudi
ty and does not impair defendant’s right to advocate
naturism by some other means,” Titone wrote. “And,
while it may be argued that the shock of nudity was the
most effective method of conveying defendant’s philos
ophy, no one is guaranteed a right to what he considers
to be the best of all means of expression, as long as the
freedom to express an idea is protected.”’
“The climate doesn’t seem right” to pursue the case
in the federal courts, Hollman said after the court’s
ruling. "We gave it our best shot.”
poetry, some of it erotic, including
volumes titled Girls and War and Just
the Way You Are.
His visits to offices of U.S. news
agencies in west Beiruit were fre
quent, and sometimes he carried
copies of the Bible and the Koran,
Islam’s holy book, to sell.
The American spoke Arabic and
often could be found at sidewalk cafes
in west Beirut’s Hamra shopping
district, but waiters there said yester
day they had not seen him for two
months.
Revolutionary Justice claimed it
kidnapped Joseph Cicippio, 56, of
Valley Forge, Pa., on Sept. 12 from
the American University of Beirut
campus. He was the university’s
comptroller.
Other factions also claimed respon
sibility for Cicippio’s abduction, but
Revolutionary Justice supported its
claim with a photograph of him in
captivity.
The kidnappers accused Cicippio of
being a spy, but made no ransom
demands.
Other Americans missing are Ter
ry Anderson, 38, chief Middle East
correspondent of The Associated
Press; David Jacobsen, 55, director
of the American University hospital;
Thomas Sutherland, 55, acting dean
of agriculture at the university; Wil
liam Buckley, 57, political officer at
the U.S. Embassy, and Frank Reed,
53, director of Beirut’s Lebanese In
ternational School.
Recent grads target
of alumni programs
By CAROLYN SORISIO
Collegian Staff Writer
Getting new alumni and students
involved with the University is the
primary goal of the new student/a
lumni programs coordinator for the
Alumni Association.
Gwen Kaufman, who started as
coordinator in August, said her pri
mary responsibilities as coordinator
are working with the Lion Ambassa
dors and providing alumni programs.
The Lion Ambassadors is made up
of about 60 students who represent
the University at events, assist visi
tors and give tours of the campus.
Kaufman said she wants to in
crease the diversity of the ambassa
dors by encouraging people from
different majors, hometowns and eth
nic backgrounds to apply.
Kaufman said she is also working
to provide a system to enable Univer
sity students to get in touch with

alumni working in their academic
fields who might be able to help them
secure a job or internship.
While the association exists pri
marily to provide programs for alum
ni, the University will benefit
financially from increased young
alumni contact, she said.
Although most of her programs are
still in the planning stages, Kaufman
said dinners, ski trips, beach parties
and white-water rafting trips are all
events that could get young alumni
involved in the association.
“We as an alumni association may
not be looking for donations but (the
Office of Development and Universi
ty Relations) is always looking for
resources ... we work hand in
hand,” she said.
Bryan Van Deun, associate direc
tor of alumni relations, said Kaufman
was selected as coordinator because
of her past experience with student
affairs.
University records said Miller was Corp. in Pittsburgh before returning
from Ernest and was registered as a to the University.

Kaufman previously worked as a

needed for her position.”
Kaufman is replacing Penny Carl
