Farming is a far-distant avo-
ation for the sometimes coal
perator, but Halleman said it is
omething he has wanted to do
or years.
Although their farm has been
icuntiful, neither Halleman nor
lis wife Joleen enjoy much of
he fruit of their labors. They
lonated the vegetables to help
leedy people.
This year, the two of them,
largely on their own, have raised
enough potatoes, tomatoes,
cucumbers, squash, zucchini,
corn, peppers and eggplant to
put together 230 cases of food.

SOUTH CHARLESTON,
Y.Va. — The blazing sun beat a
in into the face, shoulders and
iack of Tony Halleman this
ummer as he labored in the
just west of South Char-
iston.
And Halleman said despite
the searing heat and lack of wa
ter that has killed many other
gardens, the harvest remains
rich on the 34-acre piece ofland.
The property is owned by
Bishop Joseph Hodges of the
Catholic Diocese of Wheeling
Charleston.
“It’s a program that the
bishop allowed us to use his
properties to raise food for
needy people,” said Halleman.
“My wife and I did it just for the
purpose of helping them. We’re
not in the business of making
any money.”
Only two acres is actually
under cultivation because that’s
all the Hallemans thought they
could handle when they turned
the first spadeful of soil May 15.
But next year, they hope to
obtain help to triple the land
under cultivation and to raise
cattle and sheep to provide more
food for such programs as Man
na Meal and Christ’s Kitchen.
Halleman, 54, balding but fit
after a summer in the fields, is
from St. Louis originally, but he
moved to Charleston from
Houston in 1964 to work at an
electrical managers’ association
job.
He later got into the coal busi
ness and now owns Sparkle En
terprises Inc. at Nellis in Boone
County. For a number of
reasons, he said, the operation
has been largely down for the
last 18 months.
“It’s a considerable size opera
tion,” said Halleman. He hopes
to get it started working some
time in the near future. In the
meantime, he plans to put 100
percent of his time and energy
into farming for the poor.
Rids need varied music
United Press International
WASHINGTON — Telling a
to turn off the radio may
the biggest mistake parents
make in trying to get their
offspring to appreciate some
thing besides rock music, says a
school dean.
Demanding peace and quiet
ay also be one of the worst
ipproaches to teaching children
’ musical values, says Dean
Thomas Mastroianni of the
Catholic University of America
Music School.
In an informal survey, his
music school professors were
asked how parents can instill
good musical values in their chil
dren without forcing the kids to
accept the parents’ preferences.
Most agreed children should
be exposed to many different
kinds of music.
Parents today often wonder
why their children prefer rock
and roll to most other musical
forms.
“It’s really no jjreat wonder
that it captures their attention so
completely,” says jazz lecturer
Martin Peicuch. “Rock is so
much more exposed today than
other kinds of music.”
Prof. Preston Trombly, who
specializes in contemporary
chamber music, believes chil
dren should be introduced to
new music in the normal course
of the day.
Children often learn by fol
lowing their parents’ examples,
Trombly says. If parents are
open-minded about listening to
unfamiliar compositions, their
children will probably learn to
be flexible, too.
The key lies in exposing chil
dren to music without dictating
what they should like, he says —
presenting music without mak
ing value judgments.
Musical exposure can range
from lessons in school to listen
ing to a piece of music and find
ing out how the composer put it
together. It also includes seeing
and hearing live performances
or playing in a band or an
orchestra, singing in a choir or
playing in a jazz ensemble.
Third largest city
by San
guerrillas
attacked
Salvador
United Press international
A Salvadoran army spokes
man said the rebels withdrew af
ter a 10-hour assault but resi
dents reported that scattered
shooting continued late Sunday.
The leftist guerrillas fought
their way into the heart of San
1, 69 miles southeast of
San Salvador, with fierce fight-
reported at the downtown
headquarters of the 3rd Infan
try Brigade, residents said.
"We’re surrounded by
thousands of the bastards,” said
one military officer based in San
Miguel, a strategic city with
100,000 residents located in the
province of the same name.
A military official said at least
i soldiers had died and 15
others were wounded since the
attack began late Saturday.
Just outside San Miguel, re
bels ambushed two columns of
relief forces from La Union, 25
southeast of San Miguel,
but there was no immediate re
port on casualties, one military
sources said.
Guerrillas blew up bridges to
the two nearest cities, San Fran
cisco Gotera and La Union,
burned down the biggest coffee
ill in eastern El Salvador and
destroyed two office buildings in
12 hours of fighting, residents
d.
At the height of the attack,
rebel sappers toppled electricity
is, blacking out the pro-
s of San Miguel, Usulutan,
La Union and Morazan, which
comprise 40 percent of El Salva
dor's territory.

The scale of the raid on San
1 ranks it alongside such
attacks of the nearly 4-
year-old civil war as a January
battle in Santa Ana, the
country’s second largest city, a
1982 attack on the Ilopango air
force base that destroyed 18 air
craft, the 1981 destruction of
the nearly mile-long Golden
je and last February’s cap
ture of the city of Berlin.

Efforts of Soviet pilot
described by official
Before the Halleman’s took
over, the land had been used by
a group of Catholic brothers
famous for their carrot cake.
Halleman put together a plan
to raise the food and asked the
bishop to make the land avail
able to him. Hodges agreed.
“It’s a thing he and Joleen
have talked about,” said the Rev.
Joseph DeBias, parish priest of
the Blessed Sacrament Parish in
South Charleston. “For a couple
of years they have wanted to do
this.”
DeBias said the initiative for
the program was solely the Hal
lemans’.
“There was no big push in the
parish, although there are some
parishioners who help. I think
for the parish there has become
a greater awareness of it and a
real sense of pride in what’s hap
pening there,” said DeBias.
United Press International
MOSCOW — The head of
Soviet air defense, calling Ko
rean Air Lines flight 007 a deli
berate and rude provocation,
Sunday described the efforts of
Soviet pilots who fired warning
shots at the ill-fated airliner.
The account was transmitted
by the official Tass news agency
and largely reiterated previous
statements, none of which
admitted shooting down the
KAL flight last Thursday over
the north Pacific.
It was the first statement
attributed to any specific Soviet
political or military official ab
out the incident in which 269
people died, including 61 Amer
icans.
Col. Gen. Semyon Romanov,
chief of staff of the Soviet air
defense command, said that one
fighter pilot made repeated
attempts for an unspecified but
long period of time to direct the
intruder plane to the nearest
Soviet base.
After failing to establish radio
contact with the KAL flight,
which was described as flying
without navigation lights, the
pilot fired warning shots parallel
to the flight path, Romanov said.
In an important refinement
of Moscow’s previous explana
tions, Romanov said the KAL
jumbo jet “flew with exting
uished lights and its outlines re
semble much those of the Amer
ican reconnaissance plane RS-
135.
“Just in this year, American
military planes nine times
violated the airspace of the
Soviet Union in the region of the
Kurile Islands,” Romanov said.
“Our interceptor pilot made
warning shots with tracer shells
along the course of the intruder
plane to draw the crew’s atten
tion to the gross violation of the
airspace of another state,” he
said. “Rules also provide for
such a measure.”
Previous Soviet statements
admitted firing warning shots at
an unidentified intruder plane
but had not disclosed that the
target was the KAL jumbo jet.
Romanov’s remarks were
transmitted by Tass in a news
story format. Previous dispatch
es appeared as policy statements
by unidentified officials from
within the Kremlin.
Romanov’s account said he
had spoken to reporters, but no
Western correspondents were
involved. Soviet journalists
function in semi-official capaci
ties as extensions of the govern
ment and ruling Communist
Party.
“The plane seemed to be
stalking under the cover of night
above our territory,” Romanov
said.
“And there are no doubts that
this was a deliberate action de
signed as a rude provocation. It
is not difficult to guess who and
for what purpose needed this
provocation.”
Romanov said that after the
KALjumbo jet failed to respond
to attempts to establish radio
contact, the Soviet pilot Hashed
his aircraft’s lights and rocked its
wings.
“Neither waggling nor
Hashing, however, brought the
necessary result,” he said. “The
intruder plane continued the
flight in night conditions at the
height of 8,000 to 10,000 meterfc
above the territory of the Soviet
Union.”
Flarlier statements by the
Soviets indicated the unidenti
fied plane continued on its flight
in the direction of the Sea of
Japan after the warning shots
were fired and that radar con
tact was lost within about 10 mi
nutes:
