The 130,000-square-foot

Seven Oaks has leased space

The company also acts as an
agent for packaged-goods
manufacturers. It verifies and
redeems coupons issued by
those manufacturers, fulfills
promotional offers and issues
cash and coupon refunds.
Seven Oaks officials said they
could not predict how many
additional employees would be
added to their workforce in
uarez. But the new facilities are
eing built in order to allow the
company to grow in the future,
said Harold Hill, senior vice
president and chief operating
officer at Seven Oaks.

Seventeen hostages, including
three Americans, spent their
third night aboard a hot, stuffy
Air France jetliner at Tehran’s
airport with hijackers threaten

After two days of talks
Mehrabad Airport, there was
still no sign of a breakthrough
with the four air pirates, sus
pected by Iran to be Iraqi guer
rillas opposed to the Baghdad
government of President Sad
dam Hussein.
Late Monday, French radio
in Paris said the hijackers set a
deadline for 8 a.m. Tuesday for
a French response to demands
for the release of “Arab” prison
ers in France and justification
for France’s policy of aiding
Iraq, Chad and Lebanon.
French radio, quoting diplo
matic sources, said shots rang
out Monday night from the air
liner’s rear door, an apparent
attempt by the hijackers “to en
sure security forces stayed away
from the plane.”
The hijackers said they would
blow up the Boeing 727 if their
demands were not met, Tehran
Radio said.
The French charges d’af
faires in Tehran, Jean Perrin,
had no official response Mon
day to the hijackers’ demands,
relayed to him by an Iranian
Foreign Ministry official hand
ling negotiations from the air-
port control tower.
“The Iranian officials are us
ing every possible means to try
to dissuade the hijackers from
dynamiting the aircraft,” said a
Tehran Radio report monitored
in London.
The radio said the hijackers’
demands for a doctor, nurse, air
conditioner, water provisions
and fuel would be me
