There will be no courtroom session because of a legal holiday. The 13th day of the trial ended emotion ally for the pale defendant Thursday as the government played for the jury a tape from the SLA featuring Miss Hearst saying she voluntarily joined her captors in the bank heist. The frail young woman wept when she heard the strident, angry voice of SLA chieftain Donald “Cinque” DeFreeze spew a cold, militaristic account of the bank rob bery. Her shoulders shook visibly, and tears rolled down her face. She seemed to slightly regain her composure when a voice now identified as Harris railed about the news media and authorities fanning racism. However, when her voice, soft but brimming with disdain, spoke as “Tania, a soldier in the people s army’ she bowed her head and nervously rubbed her temple and lips. Carter stared at the defendant when she referred to Weed on the tape as a “sexist, ageist pig” and then turned toward the re cording machine again. Her father, San Francisco Examiner president Randolph Hearst, stiffened when she called him “Adolf,” presumably a re ference to Adolf Hitler. Her mother, Catherine, sat stone-faced, but the seven women and five men of the jury appeared enraptured as they followed her words with a government-prepared transcript. police a month later.

Associated Press SAN SIMEON, Calif. — Patricia Hearst’s parents blame “maniacs ’ for the $ 1-million-plus bombing of an ornate guest house at the fabled Hearst Castle while their daughter is on trial in San Francisco. There were no warning calls Thursday before the blast ripped through a building which 53 tourists had passed through just three mi nutes earlier, authorities said. San Luis Obispo County sherifFs deputies said there were no arrests and no suspects. The FBI was inves tigating phone calls to two San Fran cisco radio stations claiming the New World Liberation Front was respon sible for the explosion here, 150 miles south of San Francisco. The NWLF is a terrorist group that has claimed responsibility for numerous San Francisco Bay area bombings. Deputies said at least $1 million worth of treasures were damaged in the Casa del Sol, one of three mansion-sized guest houses near the main castle. They said the extent of structural damage has not been de termined. “These people have the same mentality as those who killed Marcus Foster and kidnaped Patricia. They’re nothing but a bunch of man iacs,” said Randolph A. Hearst after he learned of the blast and rushed from the courtroom where his daughter is on trial on bank robbery charges. Oakland Schools Supt. Marcus Foster was killed by the Symbionese Liberation Army, the same group that kidnaped Miss Hearst. “It just shows the vicious, terrible This we jm will c li Mar ip to H f Coast people that Patty was with.

The 40-year-old San Antonio man, who has been to prison four times before, heard the finding Thursday without showing emotion. His attor neys have said they will appeal. The same jury found Alonzo guilty Wednesday night of delivering to Huntsville the three pistols used by drug kingpin Carrasco in an attemp ted escape on Aug. 3, 1974. Dist. Atty. Jerry Sandel of Huntsville said one of the weapons, a .357 magnum, was used by inmate Rodolfo Domin guez to kill hostage Julia Standley, a prison employe. Carrasco, Dominguez and hostage Elizabeth Beseda also were killed. The jury of seven women and five men were given “prison packets” containing records of a burglary and two theft convictions. Jurors never were told that Alonzo also had a con viction for heroin possession. Alonzo was the second person to be convicted in connection with the escape attempt. Ignacio Cuevas, one of Carrasco’s two confederates in the attempted breakout, has been sentenced to death for capital murder. Still to be tried are Lawrence Hall, the lifer who has admitted bringing the three pistols into the prison, and George “Skippy” Cisneros, who al legedly obtained the weapons in San Antonio.

Associated Press NIAMEY, Nigeria — Broadcasts from Lagos today announced the second military coup in less than seven months in Nigeria. A lieutenant colonel whose name could not be understood announced the overthrow of Brig. Murtala Muhammed. He said the govern ment had been dissolved, travel was forbidden and a curfew from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. was ordered. Muhammed took over the gov ernment from Gen. Yakubu Gowon in a bloodless coup last July 29 while Gowon was attending a summit meeting of the Organization of Afri can Unity in Kampala, Uganda. Gowon himself came to power in a coup in July, 1966, six months after the military overthrew the civilian parliamentary government which the British left behind. A Lagos broadcast monitored by the British Foreign Office in London said the coup was the work of “young revolutiojnaries. A Foreign Office spokesman said the coup occurred about 9:30 a.m. and reports were filtering in from the British High Commission in Lagos, the Nigerian capital. But the spokesman said the Foreign Office did not know yet whether there had been any violence or what conditions were like in Lagos.

Hua appears to have the inside track for the premiership, but it seems likely that both Teng and Chang will make a fight for it unless the prospect of party seniority satis fies them, the report said. There has been no indication when the central committee will meet. China watchers were stunned last weekend by word from the Chinese capital that Teng, considered heir apparent to the late Premier Chou En-lai, had been passed over, and Hua, the minister of security and No. 11 in the party hierarchy, had become acting premier. Speculation that a power struggle was under way was heightened today by telephone reports from Peking residents that dozens of posters have appeared on the walls of Peking Uni versity indirectly attacking the 71- year-old Teng. Such poster cam paigns were one of the chief prop aganda weapons of the radicals dur ing the 1966-69 Great Cultural Re volution in which Teng was a casu alty, and they often reflect the think ing of Chairman Mao Tse-Tung.
