Two Turks killed; 17 dead
after two days of violence
United Press International
ANKARA, Turkey — Gunmen Tuesday killed two
people in a drug store owned by a local political party
leader, bringing the deaths from sporadic violence
throughout Turkey over the last 48 hours to 17, police
reports said.
Selahattin Arikan, the Republican Party leader of Icel
province who owns the drug store, escaped uninjured.
Reports from Adana province said a doctor was shot
and killed in the street and four people were killed in
separate incidents in the cities of Siirt, Konya and
Kutahya.
In Istanbul Monday, three people were shot to death
by terrorists, police said, and seven other people were
reported killed in the provinces of Konya, Siverek, Sil
van, Sivas and Suluova.
A curfew was imposed in Sivas after clashes between
rival groups ended with one dead and seven injured, the
governor of the city announced.
Suleyman Demirel, Justice Party leader, whose
minority government has failed to put an end to the
mounting political violence in Turkey, faces a vote of
confidence in the Turkish parliament today.
Since martial law was proclaimed in most Turkish
cities in December 1977, a total of 4,000 have died in
political violence.
Pontiff conducts second outdoor mass
Brazilians cheer John Paul
United Press International
BELO HORIZONTE, Brazil — A crowd estimated at
I 1 i (■ more ^ an 500,000 people chanted “John Paul is our
oo sowy cfljyng” anl j cheered the pontiff Tuesday at the second
S t 1 ’ Boutdoor mass of his 12-day Brazilian tour.
, r s Pennants bearing the yellow and white colors of the
mi Vatican were spread across a hilltop and valley as Pope
2 'j ^i 5 °™Bjohn Paul II warned youth against being subverted or
“ 1 a > ^1 manipulated by systems seeking to build a just society
auctions mi through injustice :
nTtion’s ^ ie to ^ t ^ ie throng that it was natural for
young people to build a “free, just and prosperous socie-
1 ty. In my youth, I lived those same convictions.”
But he warned that certain systems “disrespect and
| destroy human freedom, denying the most fundamental
1 liberties.”
j “The only revolution that does not betray man is the
i one made by real love,” he said.
i,l The crowd, given a partial holiday to mark the second
^ ^Dfil sto P ^6 pope’s visit, chanted “Hey, hey, hey, John
S^pi'W Paul is our king!” At the end of the homily the pope,
K wearing a white mitre and white robes, was visibly
contributed til moved by the crowd ’s cheering response, and said “The
ittack.” 1 pope will never forget you.”
i said he kl A Brazilian television network covering the second of
3, to limit his* the pope’s 13 planned outdoor masses in the world’s
released froisl largest Catholic nation estimated the crowd at “more
t two, but pel than 500,000, ” but no official figures were immediately
1 available.
John Paul, arriving in the industrial city of 1.6 million
lifted to Hail people, Brazil’s third largest, made a snail’s pace 12-
ve care unit! I mile ride to the mass site in an open-air “Pope-mobile. ”
d Deputy Pi I Partial holidays allowing the public to attend the mas-
idin hewasntll sesorline procession routes were also granted in Rio de
Janeiro, where the pope was scheduled to visit a favela,
or hillside slum, Tuesday night and hear a samba written
in his honor.
John Paul went to the presidential palace after a two-
hour outdoor mass in the central mall of the modernis
tic, specially-built capital.
Government officials put the crowd at some 800,000,
but journalists who have covered former papal trips said
the reception was comparatively low-keyed and esti
mated attendance at no more than 500,000.
The pope’s many comments Monday were seen as
support for human rights activities of Brazil’s dynamic
bishops as well as criticism to leftist priests who want the
church to confront the government in the struggle
against repression.
The church, John Paul said, “can only look with satis
faction upon all the efforts that aim at safeguarding and
promoting the fundamental rights and freedoms of all
human persons and assure their responsible participa
tion in community and social life.”
Speaking in a careful Portuguese he has worked at
perfecting in recent weeks, the pope said, “The church
does not cease to urge the reforms indispensable to
safeguarding and promoting the values without which
no society worth that name can prosper.”
He said all people were entitled to “the right to live,
to security, to work, to housing, to health, to education,
to private and public religious expression.”
The pontiff spoke in French on the same theme when
he met later with the Brazilian diplomatic corps.
Addressing the diplomats at the bishops’ headquar
ters, John Paul said “The common good of a society
requires that it be just.”

in Tokyo Zoo
United Press International
TOKYO — Tokyo Zoo’s giant pan
da Kan Kan, who symbolized the
establishment of diplomatic relations
between Japan and China in 1972,
has died, zoo officials said Tuesday.
They said Kan Kan was found dead
after veterinarians heard the panda
cry out and rushed to its cage late
Monday.
The cause of death was not deter
mined immediately and an autopsy
was to be performed, the officials
said.
Kan Kan and his mate, Lan Lan,
were presented to Japan by China in
1972. Lan Lan died last September
from a kidney ailment, triggering na
tional mourning for the bear-like
mammal.

Will There Be Blood If You Need It?
. . . only if there’s a volunteer donor
to provide it.
Like yourself.
Blood has to come from another
human being. It cannot be
manufactured.
You can be that volunteer donor on
July 1, 2.
That’s when the Texas A&M Blood
Club has its annual Summer blood drive.
Wadley Central Blood Bank is proud
to have been associated with this 12th
Man tradition of service to humanity
during the past 21 years. We look
forward to continuing to participate in
the Texas A&M Blood Club drives for
many years to come . . . and we join
with all Texans in saluting this
unparalleled gesture of generosity and
concern for one’s fellow man!
