Poland braces for riots
SPECIAL
United Press International
WARSAW, Poland — Hun
dreds of helmeted riot police set
up water cannons at strategic in
tersections in downtown War
saw Monday as Poland’s martial
law regime braced for demon
strations on the second anniver
sary of the banned Solidarity
union.
“The decree of martial law
makes the law and order forces
absolutely responsible to ensure
public order,” the official Polish
news agency PAP said.
“In order to fulfill this duty,
the organs of order may use the
means of direct compulsion and,
in special cases, they can be
aided by units of the armed
forces,” PAP said, warning
against demonstrations on Soli
darity’s second anniversary
today.
Riot police armed with auto
matic rifles stood in three-man
patrols at key Warsaw intersec
tions and military and police
vehicles were parked on side
streets and squares near the
areas designated by the Solidar
ity underground as sites for de
monstrations.
More than a dozen water can
nons, over a dozen armored per
sonnel carriers and scores of
police buses, trucks and jeeps
were counted in four strategic
locations as the authorities
mounted one of the biggest
security operations since martial
law was declared Dec. 13.
The only comparable buildii|
since December was in May
when anti-government rioii
erupted in over a dozen citio

TORONTO — An American
nursery owner who underwent a
lung transplant operation be
cause his lungs were rendered
useless by the weed killer para
quat was in critical but stable
condition Monday, doctors re
ported.
Spokesmen at Toronto Gen
eral Hospital where the 6'/a hour
operation was done overnight
Sunday said James Franzen of
Marietta, Ga., was attached to an
artificial lung as a precaution,
but his new lung was “function
ing very well.”
Authorities said they were
very optimistic for Franzen’s
survival. His condition was de
scribed as “unchanged — critical
but stable.”
Franzen, 31, a nursery own
er, lost use of his own lungs after
exposure to the herbicide para
quat.
The donor lung, the object of
a continent-wide search last
week, was obtained from the
body of Dennis Blakely, 25, of
Decatur, Ga., by ironic coinci
dence a resident of Franzen’s
home state.
Blakely was accidentally shot
in the head Friday while sitting
in a car listening to a baseball
^ame on the radio. His body was
flown to Toronto late Saturday
where a 30-member medical
team was assembled to make the
transfer. The donor’s kidneys
were also removed and sent back
to the United States for trans
plantation.
“I know it was the right deci
sion,” said Ruth Blakely, the
donor’s mother. “We just hope
that if anything good could
come out of such a senseless
tragedy, we could make it
happen.”
None of the 38 previous reci
pients of lung transplants is liv
ing. The Toronto hospital, the
only center in North Ament
with the facilities to performili
sort of operation Franzen it
quired, has performed one
vious lung transplant in 1911
The patient survived ISdaysilj
ter surgery.
The longest any lung traa
plant recipient has lived is !i
months, but four patients.
California’s Stanford Medid
Center who have received®
bined heart-lung transplantsai
still alive, the longest moretha
a year after surgery. The C4
fornia hospital has only pei
formed the combined tr»
plants.

Shortest papal trip
to oldest republic
United Press International
SAN MARINO — In the
shortest state visit ever made by
a pontiff, Pope John Paul 11 paid
a four-hour visit to the moun-
taintop mini-state of San Mari
no, the world’s smallest and old
est republic.
John Paul’s trip Sunday was
the first official visit by a pope to
San Marino, the 23-square mile
country nestled atop Mount
Titano in northeast Italy.
The republic, with about
21,000 residents, was founded
in 301 A.D. by St. Marinus, a
Balkan stonecutter, as a refuge
for Christians fleeing persecu
tion by the Roman emperor Dio
cletian.
Like the Vatican, which at
108 acres ranks among the
world’s smallest sovereign states,
San Marino derives a good part
of its revenues from tourism and

Like the Vatican, San Marino
has a tiny, colorfully dressed
ceremonial security forces — the
200-man Grand Council Guard.
But for the papal visit, the re
public called in about 300 Italian
paramilitary police to help pro
vide protection.
John Paul drew prolonged
fhly patrio-
Jc
applause from the highly patrio
tic residents of the city-siaS
when, on arriving by helicopiti
he kissed the ground ashedos
whenever he visitsijj^l
country.
In the 15th century govert

sed the leaders of San Marini
which is run by a Commmunisr
Socialist coalition. He diet
walked up a steep, cobblesto#
street to pray before the remain
of St. Marinus in there]
basilica.
The pope said mass befui
some 10,000 residents in "
Marino’s only sports stadiui
and told worshippers tbc
should carry on the traditiond
their founder by workingtoeni
religious persecution in otln
parts of the world.
In the afternoon the
crossed the border back into 1»
ly for a visit to Rimini, athrivinj
Adriatic beach resort 12
from San Marino.
The pope ended his visit li
Rimini with an outdoor
attended by several hundrd
thousand people near the bead
The crowd was so large
