Secretary of State Alexander Haig and Defense Secretary Cas par Weinberger both reaffirmed America’s determination to stand by allies in North Africa and the Middle East. At the same time, they sought to clarify the limits of the adminis tration’s stepped-up effort to bols ter the governments of Egypt and Sudan in the wake of Egyptian President Anwar Sadat’s assassi nation. Haig termed the loss of Sadat “unsettling” and expressed con cern about “a step-up in...Libyan troublemaking. ” With those developments, “the time has come not only to con tinue the policy we’ve been pur suing, but also to...step up the pace,” he said. But, some accounts of U.S. in tentions have been “somewhat overdrawn,” Haig said. Weinberger — asked if aid could involve a role for U.S. troops — replied, “No, none that I know of.” On his return to the White House Monday from a long weekend at Camp David, Presi dent Reagan also told reporters: “I can assure you that we have no intention of any Americans engag ing in combat.” Weinberger and Haig were in terviewed early Tuesday on ABC’s “Good Morning America.” The Washington Post reported Tuesday that Sudanese President Jaafar Numeiry told a group of American correspondents in Cairo that Haig had offered him a U.S. “commitment” to help defend Sudan against a Libyan attack. Haig said Numeiry’s remarks were misinterpreted. “He said we were going to provide assistance, ” he said, “and that’s precisely what we’re going to do.” Reagan said the accelerated arms shipments to Egypt and Sudan are “called for” to counter adventurism by Libya. A U.S. team led by State De partment counselor Robert McFarland and including two Pentagon officials is meeting with Sudanese officials in Khartoum to discuss Sudan’s military “shop ping list,” State Department spokeswoman Anita Stockman said. In a related development, the United States plans to land Marines from amphibious assault ships at Oman and Somalia and drop paratroopers over western Egypt next month as part of a mas- the sive joint military exercise. Post reported. U.S. officials also have said the exercise will involve long-distance practice runs by B-52 bombers from bases in North Dakota to targets in Egypt. Sudan, she could not say for si whether U.S. noncombatantpe sonnel would be involved. “What it is is a military exer cise,” Weinberger said Tuesday. “It’s very important that all arms be exercised and participate in maneuvers that are as realistic as possible.” Stockman said the Uni States provided the Sudan »j $30 million in military aid dun fiscal 1981, and Congress hast thorized $100 million for 1982, which began Oct. l.Thisi 233 percent increase in militi aid to the Sudan. Of the Sudanese shipments, Ms. Stockman said, “In any kind of military sale there are some kinds of equipment that would re quire some training and mainte nance. We would provide trainers to show them how to use (the weapons) and maintain them.” But Stockman said since she could not yet confirm exactly what weapons would be sent to the “We are going to be provil military equipment to the Suijj based on the (Libyan) milit* threat for their self-defense,”4 said. “We are going to accelen) the deliveries.” The Sudanese Foreign Ministr Sunday accused the radical L byan regime of Moammar Hu dafy of bombing two Sudanesch| lages last Thursday in a cam] of border attacks. «.

Several major religious groups entered the case on behalf of Bob Jones, including the Mormon Church, the Mennonite Church, the National Committee for Am ish Religious Freedom and the National Association of Evange licals. Before 1971, the 5,000-student Bob Jones University, a fun damentalist Christian school, re fused to admit any blacks. From 1971-75, it declined to admit most unmarried blacks. “Denying admission to unmar ried blacks was, in the university’s judgment, the best means of im plementing its prohibition against interracial dating and marriage,” government lawyers noted. In May 1975, under court order, Bob Jones generally per mitted unmarried blacks to enroll as students, but continued to deny admission to “any applicant known to be a partner in an inter racial marriage.” It also set disciplinary rules re quiring expulsion for any studen! who was a partner in an interradi marriage, engaged in inter dating, belonged to a group tli advocated interracial marriage«| encouraged others to violate (!«[ rule against interracial dating.
