LONGVIEW — An infant aban
doned in a nativity scene at a church
has been placed with anonymous fos
ter parents where he will remain
while efforts are make to find his
parents, a welfare worker has said.
Barbara Gavin of the Department
of Welfare said Tuesday the child,
called “Timothy Christmas,’’ was
placed with the foster parents in
Gregg County on Monday.
“Were working in conjunction
with the city police on (finding the
parents), but there are no leads,” she
said. “If no one comes forward to say
that they are the parent, and they
would have to have proof, then we
will have to wait a period of six
months before he can be put up for
adoption.”
First Baptist Church Pastor
Charles L. Holland heard a baby’s
cries early Monday and discovered
the 2-day-old child lying near the
outdoor manger with a scribbled
note underneath him that read: “I’m
Timothy — please take care of me.”

United Press International
BUFFALO, N. Y. — The Who dedicated its Tues
day night concert to 11 fans trampled to death in a
rush to see the British rock group’s Cincinnati show,
but the “shattered” band vowed to finish its United
States tour.
“You all know what happened yesterday,” lead
singer Roger Daltrey said as the band took the stage
Tuesday before a sellout crowd of 17,000 at Buffalo’s
Memorial Auditorium.
“There’s nothing we can do about it. The band is
totally shattered. But life goes on and this show’s for
them,” he said of the 11 who died.
Of the eight cities remaining on The Who’s 11-city
tour, officials in at least one — Providence, R.I. —
decided to cancel a scheduled concert, but the prom
oter who booked the concert performance,
threatened to sue the city if the show does not go on.
Richard Sinnett, head of Boston’s licensing
bureau, said he would hold a public hearing today on
whether to grant permission for a Dec. 16 concert at
the Boston Garden.
Concerts were still scheduled in Richfield, Ohio;
Pontiac, Mich.; Chicago; Philadelphia; handover,
Md., and New Haven, Conn.
Promoters of the Buffalo show — who doubled the
usual security force to 250 private guards, college
students and off-duty police — reported no $eriou|g
incidents.
All tickets for the event had reserved seatnumo
hers, unlike the situation in Cincinnati Mondayajg
8,000 concert-goers holding general admission (id
ets stampeded to get good seats when twodoorsof|
the Riverfront Coliseum were opened.
Four women and seven men, between the ayes of ]
15 and 22, were trampled in the rush.
Entrances to the Buffalo auditorium were opened 1
two hours before the concert started to allowaneven j
flow of ticketholders.
Outside the auditorium, they were instructed|(i|
“have your tickets out and your jackets open’ when]
they approached the gates. Inside, security guards j
frisked everyone for liquor bottles or cans.
The Providence Civic Center Authority lues
night voted to cancel a Dec. 17 concert becaui
Mayor Vincent Cianci refused to provide police pus j
tection for the group’s appearance. /
“I will not permit even the possibility of a repeatufj
the tragedy in Cincinnati,” Cianci said.
Promoter Larry Vaughn said he would wait four
days to let "the city of Providence come to its
senses,” but if Cianci sticks by the cancellation lie
will sue either to force the* city to hold the concertor |
pay $10,000 to cover expenses and lost profits.

Response to U.S. protest t inadequate ,
Libyan relations to be cm
United Press International
WASHINGTON — The United
States is preparing to cut back its
relations with Libya in the aftermath
of the burning of the U.S. Embassy
in Tripoli Sunday.
U.S. officials said the Libyan re
sponse to the strong U.S. protest ab
out the incident and a demand for
restitution was “inadequate. ”
A diplomatic source close to the
Libyan embassy said the Libyans
had, by expressing their formal re
gret for the mob action, intended to
offer restitution for the partial des
truction of the building.
“They may have meant that,” a
U.S. official said, “but they didn’t
say that, nor did they accept respon
sibility for the episode. We still con
sider their response to be inade
quate.”
The Libyan ambassador in
Washington, Ali al-Houdari, said,
“If they want to push us to the wall,
let them. They (the Americans) need
k Texas i
us more than we need them and iff oa
