HAMBURG, West Germany — A
Hamburg court convicted three peo
ple Monday of arranging the sale of
the forged “Hitler Diaries,” but the
judge also said Stern magazine was
too easily duped in the $3.1 million
swindle.
The prosecution called it the liter
ary hoax of the century.
Chief Judge Holger Schroeder
told a packed courtroom that the
Hamburg-based, mass circulation
magazine “stood naked,” without
any proof that the journals were
real, as it went to press with them in
April 1983.
Historians and the public alike
rushed to peek into the private
thoughts of Nazi dictator Adolf Hit
ler as Stern began publishing its sen
sation. Stern hailed the excerpts as
the “journalistic scoop of the post
war period.”
Experts quickly denounced the 60
volumes as crude fakes.
Stern never got back any of the
$3.1 million it paid for the fake di
aries.
Convicted of fraud were former
Stern reporter Gerd Heidemann,
53, who procured the fake diaries
for the magazine, and confessed
forger Konrad Kujau, 47, a dealer in
Nazi memorabilia and a handwriting
expert. Heidemann was sentenced
to four years, eight months impris
onment, and Kujau to 4‘/a years.
Edith Lieblang, 44, a friend of
Kujau, was convicted of receiving
stolen property — some of Kujau’s
earnings from the forgeries. She
drew an eight-month suspended
sentence.
Both Heidemann and Kujau had
been held in “investigative custody”
for two years, and that time will be
deducted from their sentences.
Lawyers for all three told the State
Court of Hamburg they would ap
peal and all three were released until
then.
Kujau, an East German emigrant,
said he expected the verdict.
“I wrote the things, didn’t I?” he
said.
Prosecutors charged that Heide
mann kept at least $600,000 of what
Stern paid for the diaries.
Stern magazine published two in
stallments of the diaries, in April
and May 1983, before government
experts denounced them as bogus.
Stern said in a statement Monday
it accepted the court ruling, includ
ing the parts in which Stern and
Gruner, its publishing company, and
ahr were rebuked to
essly.
The judge said Stern and its pub
lishing company helped cheat them
selves by not checking the diaries’
authenticity and by carelessly fun-
neling millions through Heidemann.
He said Stern’s top management
“failed to stop the countdown” to
publication though they knew gov
ernment experts said more tests
were needed to authenticate the one
page of the diaries Stern had asked
them to verify.
“No one (at Stern) asked, ‘Are the
diaries really valid?”’ thejudge said.
Lebanon
Moslem leaders discuss U.S. sanctions,
ways to bring civil war to an end
As
Associated Press
BEIRUT, Lebanon — Moslem leaders met Monday
in Syria, the power broker in this war-ravaged nation,
seeking ways to halt the bloodshed and to counter U.S.
sanctions imposed on Lebanon in retaliation for the
TWA hijacking.
The sounds of combat filled the air in west Beirut
and the northern port of Tripoli, where they have be
come as common as traffic noise in other cities. Two
buildings used as sniper roosts were blown up in Tri
poli, killing eight people, police said.
Political and religious leaders of Lebanon’s Shiite,
Sunni and Druse sects met with Abdel-Halim Khad-
dam, the Syrian vice president, for five hours Monday
in the first session of the two-day conference in Damas
cus.
They were expected to draw up a security plan in
tended to curb feuding between Moslem militias and
end a wave of lawlessness in west Beirut that has grown
in 10 years of civil war.
As the meeting began in Khadd^im’s office, gunmen
of Nabih Berri’s Shiite militia Amal, and the Druse Pro
gressive Socialist Party led by Walid Jumblatt fought a
one-hour battle in west Beirut’s Mosseitbeh, Lija and
Ras el-Nabaa neighborhoods.
A joint Amal-Druse security committee called a
cease-fire, but the fighters continued trading sniper fire
and grenades.
The battle began when Amal tried to put up a poster

Flash fires continue to blaze
out of control in western U.S.
Associated Press
for acting care-
A savage 55,000-acre Galifornia
brush fire destroyed five homes
Monday and sent thousands of peo
ple fleeing flames and choking
smoke, challenging fire forces al
ready weary from hundreds of
blazes across the western United
States and Canada.
Firefighters beat back a 30-foot
wall of flame that licked at the north
eastern flank of San Luis Obispo,
Calif., but wind gusts sprayed
chunks of embers over rooftops,
streets and yards.
The advancing fire, which started
130 miles northwest of Los Angeles
on July 1, was among the latest and
largest of a series of fires which have
killed three, leveled more than 140
homes and chewed through more
than half a million acres since late
June. Many fires still burned out of
control Monday.
Firefighters battled brush, forest
and range blazes, large and small
and many lightning-caused, in Cali
fornia, Idaho, Oregon, Utah, Mon
tana, Washington, Nevada and Ore
gon on Monday.
Other fires in Arizona, Nebraska
and Wyoming were either contained
or controlled over the weekend, fire
fighters said.
The San Luis Obispo fire started
near Santa Margarita Lake, gutting
seven homes and 14 other buildings
in its earlv going, said California Di
vision ol Forestry spokeswoman
Rhonda Lazzarini.
But Monday morning, erratic
winds fanned it into a firestorm that
advanced on the city of 35,000, and
thousands fled their hillside homes
ahead of the wall of flame. By mid
morning, police said at least five
homes were charred.

Poll: Most Americans find time to exercise
Associated Press
NEW YORK — Almost six in 10
Americans exercise to keep fit,
according to a Media General-Asso
ciated Press poll. Most of those who
don’t run, lift weights, bicycle or
otherwise put their bodies in motion
blame lack of time or say their stren
uous schedules give them enough of
a workout.
In h nationwide telephone survey of 1,402 adults con
ducted by Media General and the Associated Press, 57
percent said they exercised in addition to their normal
daily activities.

In a nationwide telephone survey
of 1,402 adults, 57 percent said they
exercised in addition to their normal
daily activities.
Walking was the most common
form of exercise, with one-third of
the respondents saying they walked
to keep physically fit. Half of the re
spondents said they got their exer
cise indoors: jumping rope, lifting
weights, dancing and doing calisthe
nics, aerobics or yoga were among
the exercises mentioned.
“I think the American public is
more sophisticated about how to
exercise for fitness purposes, but I
don’t think they’re as sophisticated
as we would want them to be,” said
Ash Hayes, acting director of the
President’s Council on Physical Fit
ness and Sports.
The Media General-AP poll
found that four in Wpeople without
a regular exercise program said they
got enough exercise in their normal
daily activities and three in 10 said
they didn’t have time to exercise.
Other reasons for not exercising in
cluded not liking exercise, laziness
and boredom.
Among those who exercised, 52
percent exercised by themselves and
48 percent exercised with friends,
relatives or with a group such as an
exercise class. Forty percent said
they exercised daily; 48 percent said
icy
One-third of the exercisers said
they had started exercising for en
joyment. Twenty-seven percent said
they did it to improve their health,
ana 21 percent said they wanted to
lose weight.
Despite the recent popularity of
road races and other recreational
competition, racing was not a con

Respondents in the Media Gen
