Flood sweeps through Missouri KANSAS CITY. Mo MIPI. irioci. Hooding with powerful, surging crests of water up to 20 feet high brought death and uncounted millions of dollars of destruction to the metropolitan area Tuesday, triggering power failures and gas-fed explosions and fire. At least 18 persons were killed in Kansas City's worst disaster since 1951. Dozens more were injured and hundreds driven from their homes. Law enforcement officers and rescue volunteers continued to search for more victims. Residents who fled their homes including many who had to be rescued by boat from the tops of houses and marooned cars filtered back to residences covered with mud and debris. Many homes, however, were still surrounded by water. Between 8 and 16 inches of rain were reported from various parts of the metropolitan area in the past two days, turning the normally placid creeks and rivers that wind through residential areas into roaring torrents. The Kansas River was out of its banks but expected to crest at 3.5 feet above flood stage of 23 feet late Tuesday. The Big Blue River crested about 17 feet above flood level at noon in eastern Kansas City. The Missouri River the "Big Muddy" was expected to crest at three feet above flood level at the Hannibal Bridge in Kansas City. One of the hardest hit areas was the prestigious Country Club Plaza shopping and entertainment center, located 50 blocks south of downtown. Officials were hesitant to estimate damage to the Plaza or to residences and businesses in outlying areas, but Police Maj. Richard Fletch said the Plaza damage was extensive. Lance, Carter meet WASHINGTON (UPI) - While Bert Lance met privately with President Carter at the White House Tuesday, new testimony showed he anticipated a top job and possible problems with his banking affairs six months before Carter won the election. The testimony, made by bank examiner Charles Stuart to the Internal Revenue Service, was released at a hearing of the Senate Governmental Affairs Committee which is looking into Lance's financial problems. Lance is scheduled to testify before the committee Thursday and Friday, but his future may have been decided during a private 30-minute session with Carter netus briefs Tuesday. Both men declined comment afterward and Press Secretary Jody Powell said he does not think Carter asked his budget director and longtime friend to resign. "1 don't know if he did, but 1 would be very surprised," Powell said. During Tuesday's hearing on Capitol H ill, the committee received an IRS report from Stuart with statements directly contradicting testimony of his fellow federal bank examiner Donald Tarleton. It was Tarleton, the Atlanta-based regional bank examiner, who took Lance's Calhoun National Bank of Georgia off the federal "troubled" list just hours after learning Lance would be named to a top administration job last November Arafat praises U.S. BEIRUT, Lebanon (UPI) - PLO chief Yasser Arafat welcomed as a "positive step" a U.S. statement that Palestinians must join any Middle East peace talks. The PLO said it showed President Carter had not yielded to "Zionist blackmail." Rudd giving up NEW YORK (UPI) Mark Rudd. radical leader of the Weathermen Underground who is wanted by the FBI and two states, will surrender in New York Wednesday, his lawyer said Tuesday.

Lef court refused to disclose Rudd's whereabouts for theeight years he has been a fugitive from justice, or why the fugitive radical has now decided to turn himself in.

Lowell services Friday NEW YORK (UPI) - Robert Lowell, the Pulitzer prize-winning poet who rejected invitations from the President and the Army, will be taken to his native Boston for funeral services Friday. Considered by many critics to be the premiere poet of his generation, Lowell suffered a fatal heart attack Monday night in a taxicab at the age of 60. An outspoken pacifist, Lowell's often angry and sarcastic poetry reflected a combination of his New England Calvinist upbringing, his conversion to and subsequent rejection of Roman Catholicism and a strong social conscience. campus calendar- Compiled by Jodi Bishop Public service announcements must be turned in to the bon outside the DTH offices in the Union by 100 p m it they ' to run the next day Each item will run it least twice ACTIVITIES TODAY There still he a UNCC ahort court entitled "Computer Auuled Document rrcpuralmnl Introduction loNi-rint)" at tp m in 22 Phillips Hall The UNC Volleyball Club will have tryouti at 7 p m. in the Women'i liym.
