Gaza Strip, and the U.N. Secur
ity Council scheduled an
emergency session Wednesday
on the flourishing violence.
Begin called an emergency
Cabinet meeting immediately
after Tuesday’s 58-58 parlia
ment vote over the West Bank
unrest, to inform his ministers
he had decided to go to the pres
ident to tender his resignation.
Though a tie vote is a technic
al victory for the government,
enabling it to continue in office,
Begin, 68, told aides Monday he
would regard a tie in the 120-
member body its a personal de
feat and resign.
But the Cabinet voted, 12-6,
for the prime minister to stay on.
However, analysts predicted he
would call new elections by
November because of his lack of
a clear majority in the Knesset
(parliament).
“With the participation of the
representatives of the coalition,
the government decided to re
ject the prime minister’s propos
al to report to the president to
tender his resignation,” Cabinet
Secretary Arye Naor said after
the session.
“The prime minister accepted
the verdict and will not resign,”
Naor said.
The no-confidence vote was
introduced by the opposition
Labor alignment, Communist
and centrist Shinui parties.
It was the first time Begin did
not win in six confidence votes
since his re-election June 30 with
a razor-thin one-vote majority
for his Likud Bloc coalition.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla.—
America’s space shuttle pilots
won the praise of mission scien
tists Wednesday and got an
easier work schedule so they
could rest up for the remainder
of the ambitious seven-day
orbital flight.
Jack Lousma, 46, and Cor
don Fullerton, 45, were in good
spirits as they began the Col
umbia’s third day in orbit, de
spite a series of nagging troubles
that, continued Wednesday
when their toilet’s solid waste
processor stopped.
An important test of the
ship’s 50-foot robot arm was
postponed until today because
failure of a television camera on
the end of the boom was ex
pected to complicate efforts to
grasp and pick up a scientific in
strument for the first time.
The astronauts have been
assured of a safe re-entry Mon
day despite the loss of three
dozen insulation tiles from the
shuttle’s nose and tail.
That discovery and other
problems Tuesday prompted
flight directors to give the pilots
an extra hour of sleep Wednes
day because it was obvious the
astronauts were fatigued. But
there were indications that they
were up and about the spacec
raft before they got a wake up
call at 7:21 a.m. CST from mis
sion control.
Later astronaut David Griggs
in mission control read a mes
sage to the pilots from the team
of scientists reponsible for some
of the 14 experiments aboard
the rocket plane.
“The OSS-1 (Office of Space
Sciences) experimenters are all
very excited about the excellent
data they are getting,” he said.
“They would like to express
their appreciation to Jack and
Cordon for the terrific support
they have given the OSS-1 ex
periments.”
Lousma expressed concern
when Wednesday’s flight plan
was revised to give them more
rest. He did not want the 115-
orbit mission, the third and
toughest test yet for the shuttle,
to omit any test objectives.
The mission commander re
ported trouble sleeping his first
night in orbit because of
annoying bursts of static in his
ear phones as the ship passed
over Iran and China. Engineers
said it could have been caused by
radar tracking the ship and an
effort was made to trace the
source Wednesday.
The astronauts resolved >1
potentially serious problem bfl
fore retiring. One of the paylt
hay doors would not latch dutl
ing a test to see how it pel
formed when subjected to tlxl
deep freeze of space. Al ter tunvl
ing the ship to warm up tlitl
door, Lousma reported it worll
ed satisfactorily.
