Nicaragua recalls ttroop from border
From Associated Press reports
TEGUCIGALPA, Honduras -Nicaragua
withdrew its soldiers from
the Honduran border Monday and
declared an end to fighting while it
holds truce talks with contra rebels,
according to reports from all sides.
The border region remained tense,
with Honduran patrols remaining on
the lookout for any booby traps left
behind by the Sandinistas.
President Jose Azcona Hovo said
the 3,200 U.S. troops sent to Hon
duras last week, after the Nicaraguan
army was accused of sending 2,000
men across the border last Wednes
day in pursuit of contras, may not
be needed any longer.
"The worst is over and there is
peace now in the border region," Col.
Reynald Andino Flores, commander
of the Honduran army's 101st Infan
try Brigade, said by telephone from

IRA gunmen killed a police officer

violence.
Britain announced a massive man

British soldiers caught in an Irish
Republican Army funeral procession.
Northern Ireland Secretary Tom
King said in London that the Royal
Ulster Constabulary has launched an
immediate review of its new policy
of keeping a low profile at IRA
funerals. The policy was aimed at
avoiding clashes between police and
supporters of the outlawed IRA.

his headquarters in southern
Honduras.
In Washington, Pentagon officials
announced that a U.S. Army trans
port helicopter participating in a
military exercise in Honduras crashed
on Monday with a number of soldiers
reported injured.
The officials, who requested ano
nymity, said the accident occurred
Monday afternoon near the Hondu
ran town of Juticaloa and involved
an American UH-1 Huey transport
helicopter.
While the initial reports were
fragmentary, it appeared that the
copter was carrying nine soldiers and
that all of them survived, the sources
said.
"We have no reports of any fatal
ities," said one official. "But we do
have reports of some injuries and

checkpoint in the Roman Catholic

Northern Ireland's second-largest
city. He died later in the hospital.
The IRA claimed responsibility for
Graham's killing in a clandestine
message to Belfast media.
He was the 10th person to die since
March 6, when British commandos
shot dead three IRA guerrillas who
allegedly were plotting a car bombing
in Gibralter.
The funeral policy was started
Wednesday at services for the guer
rillas killed in Gibraltar. A Protestant
gunman opened fire and hurled
grenades at the Catholic Milltown
cemetery, killing three people and
wounding 68.

University officials promised
laundry employees alternative

community when notifying them last
week of the facility's possible closing.
"The University administration

workers," Shetley said. "They have

be made to find employment for all
workers who would otherwise be
adversely affected by the laundry's
closing."

The sources said the accidents did
not occilr in or near a combat zone
and did not involve hostile fire.
"It looks like it was mechanical,"
one official said.
The accident scene was said to be
about six miles south of Juticaloa.
That would place it 35 miles north
of the Honduras-Nicaragua border
and about 60 miles west of the border
region where Nicaraguan troops were
fighting contra guerrillas last week.
The Pentagon sources, who
stressed they were awaiting more
information from U.S. authorities in
Honduras, said it was unclear
whether the nine aboard the Huey
were all American or whether some
of the passengers might have been
Honduran troops.
The United States airlifted more

demands by leaders of Northern
Ireland Protestant parties to return
to a heavy presence at IRA funerals.
As expectations grew of an immi
nent wave of arrests in West Belfast,
there was also speculation that dozens
of IRA supporters who were filmed
surrounding and beating the soldiers'
unmarked car with iron bars and
dragging them out had gone into
hiding.
Three people were arrested Satur
day and police sources said Monday
that up to 30 others were being sought
after hours of scrutiny of film taken
by an army helicopter that hovered
over the scene and by TV networks.

to stay with the University so they

than 3,100 Army troops to Honduras
last week in a warning to the leftist
Sandinista government after Nicara
guan troops moved into Honduras to
attack base camps of the U.S. -backed
contra guerrillas.
After arriving in Honduras, the
American soldiers dispersed around
the country for joint exercises with
Honduran forces. One of those
exercise areas is near Juticaloa and
a battalion from the 82nd Airborne
Division was sent to that site.
The Reagan administration has
made it clear that it does not intend
to send the U.S. troops into combat
with the Sandinistas.
Administration sources said Mon

stripped, beaten and shot dead.
King denied charges by Northern
Ireland Protestant politicians that
police and troops failed to come to
the soldiers' aid because of political
orders to stay away from IRA
funerals.
He said it was not immediately
clear to police watching film relayed
from the helicopter that soldiers were
under attack because police "were
certain there were no security forces
in the area whatsoever."
Since 1969, 2,638 people have been
killed in the sectarian violence in this
Protestant-dominated province. The
IRA is fighting to end British rule
and unite Northern Ireland with the
Catholic Republic of Ireland under
a leftist administration.

chairs.
Helms thinks the resolution is
unconstitutional, Boney said.
"It places unnecessary restrictions
on the executive power," he said.
Congress has little power to cen
sure the president for failing to
comply with the War Powers Reso
lution in the short term, Keech said.
"In the long term, (Congress) can
cut off appropriations," he said.
Congress won't take action directly
to bring back the troops, said Edith
Whooten, a spokeswoman for
Valentine.
Twelve senators, led by Demo
cratic Sen. David Boren, introduced
a bill Friday to provide $48 million
in humanitarian aid to the contras,
Whooten said, in reaction to the
deployment. A similar bill was
defeated earlier this month.
In 1982, Congress enacted a joint
resolution before the 60-day deadline
to allow troops to remain in Lebanon,
but the resolution has not been tested
otherwise under Reagan's
administration.

Troops kill Palestinian teen;

From Associated Press reports
JERUSALEM Israeli troops
on Monday shot a Palestinian
teen-ager dead, and a PLO leaflet
exhorted Arabs to "shower sol

and iron bars.
Soldiers were expanding their

At least 106 Palestinians and the
