Patty Hearst too young

‘ATLANTA (AP) - Patty
Hearst, resisting suggestions
that she write about her life,
say she’s too young to write
an auloblography.

“People tell me I should
write a book,’ Miss Heartt,
serving a prison sentence at
the Federal Correctional
Institution in Pleasanton,
Calif,, said in an laterview
with the Atlanta Journal-
“My feeling
has been that anything that
smacks of an autobiography
at 24 is arrogant to say the
least.”

Miss Hearst is serving a
Bevel-year sentence for her

in a bank robbery
staged by the revolutionary
Symbionese Liberation
Army, will be eligitle for
parole in t4 months.

She apparently maintains
a sense of humor about her
ordeal: “I'd really like to
travel again - anywhere but
Italy,” she sald, ‘There's
too much kidnapping there,"

MOSCOW (AP) - With a
firm “No, no, no," Christina

Greek shipping magnate
Aristotle Onassis, has denied

Onassis' denials, she may
marry Kaosov as soon they
have all the necessary legal
documents. Published
reports claim the wedding

date was supposed to be
today, but the sources sayit
will be sometime later.

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP). -
Comedian Pat Cooper says
his father is proud of him
now, but it wasn’t always
that way.

“I worked 12 years as a
bricklayer and I finally
quit," Cooper said in a
recent interview here prior
to performing at an area
summer theatre. “I said,
‘Pop, it's not inme.' It broke
his heart.”

“Yes, my father though I
was nuts - but I did not quit
working until [found out that
I could make a living

said Cooper, whose

Soviet dissidents
plead not guilty

MOSCOW (AP) — Two
Jowish dissident leaders
went before Soviet courts
Monday in trials that are
drawing the United States
intona major human rights
confrontation with Moscow.

The wife of one of the
defendants, Anatoly Sh-
charansky, appealed to the
United States to intercede
and help free her husband,
who faces a possible death
penalty If convicted of es-
plonage.

In Washington, U.S. State
Secretary Cyrus Vance
saldnthe treals raise serious
questions about Soviet
compliance with the Helsinki
human rights accords but he
rejected the idea cf peat-
poning this week’s nuclear
arms negotlations in protest.

Shcharansky, afr

earingnbefore a three-
udge panel in a tree-fhaded
central Moscow courthouse,
pleaded not guilty to the
treason charge against him,
rejecting as “absurd” alle-
gations that he spied for the
Central In:telligence Agency,
his brother Leonid sald.

In the city of Kaluga, 160
kilometres south of here,
Alexander Ginzburg, ac-
cused of anti-Soviet agitation
and propaganda, also denied
the charges against him.
Irina Ginzburg said her hus-
hand, who could get up to 10
years at hard labor, told the
three judges he might
modify his plea if his guilt is
proved at the trial.
FOLLOWS CAMPAIGN

The prosecution of the 30-
year-old Shcharansky, a
computer expert who
becamea key member in the
Jewish emigration
movement, and the 41-year-
old Ginzburg, a long-time
human rights activist,
follows an 18-month Soviet
campaign against dissent.

Two other trials also got
under way Monday, one
involving Lithuanian human
rights activist Viktorus
Pyatkus and the other a
mystery figure accused of
esplonage and identified by
the Tass news agencx only as
A. Filatov. :

Shcharansky's wife,
Natalia, told a news con-
ference in Paris she believes
fucther statements by
President Carter and the

Congress might enable her |
husband to ‘be free and go

out from Russia.”

Mrs. Shcharansky, a
resident of Israel who said
she went to Paris to help
mobilize world opinion on
her husband's _ behalf,
suggested that Congress
pass a resolution in the case.

In New York, thousands of
American Jews and others
gathered at a noon rally to
protest the Shcharansky
{rlal. Three hours earlier a
bomb exploded negr the
Manhattan offices of the
Soviet travel agency In-
tourist, causing little
damage and no injuries. No
one immediately claimed
responsibility for the biast.

Western reporters,
diplomats, including U.8.
Embassy representatives,
and the defendants’
comrades from the dissident
movement were barred from
the trials in Moscow and Ka-
luga, They waited outside for
word from the defendants’
relatives or court officials on
what was happening.

Mrs. Ginzburg said her
husband, who has been

under medical care for
apparent ulcers and
tuberculosis during his 18
months in detention, “has
gone completely grey" and
Jooks like a man of 60 rather
than 41.

Standing before the three-
judge court, he was asked his
nationality, Mrs, Ginzburg
said. He replied, “ZEK,” an

years in Soviet prisons for
two previous convictions on
similar charges. 0

SAID AIDED MURDERERS
‘Tass said Ginzburg was
accused of financing ‘with
money recelyed from abroad
... the hostile activities of
criminal elements, including
professional murderers,
former members of gangs
and henchmen of the Ger-
man fascists who took part in
mass shootings of Soviet citi-
zens,” +

CHICAGO (AP) - Naz
Jeader Frank Collin stood
atop a white van and spoke
passionately of a ‘1078 white
revolution’’ in which he said
Jews and blacks would be
“wiped off the face of the
earth,” There was no ap
plause. .

Police say about 4,000
persons were looking on as

King Jr. when he attempted

Hundreds of policemen
separated about 20 brown-
uniformed Nazis and small
bands of counter-
demonstrators, whose shouts
of "Death to Nazis” at times
made it impossible to hear
Collin.

Manson says he

didn’t want to kill

VACAVILLE, Callf, (AP) -
Convicted mass murderer
Charles Manson says he
went to prison “for cutting
people for shooting peaple,’’

in a prison interview”

says he didn’t want to kill.

‘In a copyright story
Sunday in the Vacaville
Reporter, Manson said he
murdered, “not because I
wanted to, but because I was
forced to.”

“That's part of the game of
being an outlaw and I've
always been an outlaw,”’
said the 44-year-old Manson,
serving a life term for
masterminding the 1669
murders of actress Sharon
Tate and four persons at her
heme and Leno = and
Rosemarie La Bianca at
their home.

The leuder of the so-called
“Manson family” normally
turns down requests for
interviews, prison officials
said, but agreed to meet with
reporter Chris Weinstein
because of a  recom-
mendation from another

prisoner.
As for the “family”, many

also behind bars for crimes
ranging from the Tate-La
Bianca killings to the at-
tempted murder of former
president Gerald Ford,
Manson said: ‘This thing
just happened. This person
had no place to stay and this
person was lost and had no
place to stay, and I didn't
have no place to stay.

“They were nobody and I
was nobody. They were out
in the streets kicked out of
their houses and I was
kicked out of my house, It
just happened, and another

thing happened.”
Manson would not
elaborate on . what

specifically happened

saying he’s saving that In-.

formation for a new trial he
hopes at get.

Manson is a high-security
prisoner at Vacaville
Medical Facility, a
California prison about 80
kilometres east of San
Francisco. Under state law,
he becomes eligible for
parole consideration later
this year.

Trish constable
killed by IRA

BELFAST {AP) - Police
and troops recovered the
body of a kidnapped police
constable in an. old far-
mhouse today after
receiving a tip from Irish
Republican Army guerrillas
who killed him, police said.

Constable William Turbitt,
42, was dragged from his
patrol car by guerrillas June
17 after an ambush in which
he was wounded and his
partner was killed,

The body was found in a
farmhouse about 100 metres
from Northern Ireland's
border with the Irish
Republic and 16 kilometres
from the site of the ambush,
the IRA’s South Armagh
County stronghold,

The IRA’s militant
provisional wing said they
executed Turbitt June 19
after interogating him about
police and army intelligence
operations, The guerrillas
killed a local Catholic
several daya later, claiming
he was an informer iden-
tified by Turbitt, There was
no explanation why they kept
Turbitt’s body so long.

The confirmation of
Turbitt’s death raised the
known death toll of nearly
nine years of sectarian,
conflict to at least 1,650
killed, inclusing 1145 mem-
bers of the predominantly
Protestant Royal Ulster
Constabulary, the province's
police force,
