Celling beer at sports events
troubles six of 10 Americans
Associated Press
NEW YORK — Six of 10 Ameri
cans say beei sales at sporting events
should be restricted because drink
ing contributes to rowdyism, accord
ing to a Media General-Associated
Press poll on spectator violence.
Respondents in die nationwide
telephone poll were asked to choose
between two statements: “The sale
of beer at games contributes to spec
tator rowdyism and should be lim
ited” or “Keer sales should not be
limited because it would unfairly in
convenience the majority because of
the problems of a few.”
Sixty-two percent of the 1,517 re
spondents said beer sales should be
limited, while 53 percent said limit
ing beer sales would be unfair to the
majority of spectators who behave.
Five percent were unsure.
Lebanon’s car
bombers kill
44 in Tripoli
Associated Press
BEIRUT, Lebanon — Lebanon’s
car bombers struck in Tripoli on
Tuesday, apparently luring people
into a main square and then detonat
ing a bomb that killed 44 people and
wounded 90, police reported.
Beirut was rocked by the fiercest
artillery and rocket barrages in six
'months. Police in the capital said 40
people were killed and 143 wounded
in 24 hours of heavy fighting be
tween Christians and Moslems in a
resurgence of Lebanon’s decade-old
civil war.
The car bomb was the fifth in
Lebanon’s major cities in a week. A
total of 143 people have been killed.
An anonymous caller who claimed
to speak on behalf of the Revolution
ary Christians of the Cedars, a hith
erto unknown group, telephoned a
Western news agency in Beirut to
say it planted the bomb.
The caller, speaking in heavily ac
cented French, declared: “We want
to assure the whole world that no
Moslem fundamentalists will con
tinue to live on Lebanese soil.”
The car bomb was parked near
the homes of Sheik Kenaan Naji,
leader of the f undamentalist Sunni
Jundullah militia, or Soldiers of
God, and his aide. Sheik Abdel-Ka-
rim Badawi. Police said Naji was
wounded and hospitalized, but had
no word whether Badawi was hit.
Jundullah, armed and bankrolled
by the Palestine Liberation Organi
zation, is one of the main factions
that has battled with the Syrian-
backed Arabian Knights militia for
Control of Tripoli, 50 miles north of
Beirut.
Some intelligence officials specu
lated that Tuesday’s bombing was
linked to Syria’s campaign to crush
Yasser Arafat’s Palestine Liberation
Organization in T ripoli.
Support for limited beer sales is
one indication that many Americans
are concerned about violence in the
stands. Nearly four in 10 respon
dents said they had witnessed fights
among spectators at a game. Four
teen percent said they had felt per
sonally threatened by rowdy fans.
While many were concerned
about violence, 56 percent said last
spring’s deadly riot at a soccer match
in Belgium would not likely be du
plicated at a U.S. sporting event. Al
most four people in 10 disagreed,
saying such riots were likely to occur.
Rowdyism has also become a con
cern in the United States. Alcohol-
free sections, low-alcohol beer and
limited sales of beer are being tried
in baseball parks this summer.
Respondents in the Media Gen
eral-A P poll were asked if they
thought some sports encouraged vi
olent behavior among fans, and 62
percent said yes.
Forty-nine percent of the respon
dents said sports teams should face
disciplinary action if their fans are
consistently violent while 45 percent
said the teams should not be blamed.
Slightly more than half said they
thought professional sports teams
provided adequate security for spec
tators.
The poll also found that two-
thirds of Americans considered
themselves sports fans and half at
tended live sporting events several
times a year.
Respondents in the Media Gen
eral-Associated Press poll included a
random sampling of 1,517 adults
across the country July 5-13.
Gunmen
kill Israeli
diplomat
Associated Press
CAIRO, Egypt — Gunmen firing
from a speeding car killed a junior
Israeli diplomat on Tuesday and
wounded two other embassy em
ployees — his wife and his secretary,
Egyptian authorities said.
It was the second attack on a
Cairo-based Israeli diplomat in little
over a year.
A group using the name “Egypt’s
Revolution” claimed responsibility
for Tuesday’s shooting and vowed to
keep striking “until the Israeli colo
nialists leave the country.” The same
group claimed the June 1984 attack,
in which no one was killed.
An Interior Ministry statement
and the Israeli Foreign Ministry
identified the assassinated diplomat
as Albert Atrakchi, 30, an adminis
trative attache posted to the Cairo
embassy three months ago.
The other victims were his wife
liana, 24, and Mazal Menashe, 22,
his secretary, who is also the wife of
another Israeli diplomat. The min
istry did not describe Mrs. Atrakchi’s
post in the embassy. They were re
ported in “reassuring” condition af
ter surgery, according to an Israeli
report.
Egypt, which signed a 1979 peace
treaty with Israel, is the only Middle
Eastern country that has diplomatic
relations with the Jewish state. Most
Arab nations severed relations with
Cairo and the treaty has remained
controversial inside Egypt and in the
Arab world.
South African homes searched
Associated Press
JOHANNESBURG, South Af
rica — Security forces ringed a
riot-prone black district with
about 80 armored personnel car
riers on Tuesday and searched
the houses, using dogs.
A black policeman in another
town shot his way out of an angry
mob, killing one man.
Police fired rubber bullets at
demonstrators near Cape Town
and Johannesburg, wounding
several. Officers at Witbank, 57
miles east of Johannesburg, ar
rested scores of school-age
youngsters in pre-dawn raids on
their homes, said Maj. C. Bloem,
chief of the Witbank police.
Bloem said the youths were ar
rested in connection with rioting,
arson and looting, part of the tide
of anger against white rule that
has swept South Africa for a year
and cost more than 600 black
lives.
The government announced
one month after it declared a
state of emergency that it was
holding 998 people without
charge or access to legal advice.
Police headquarters in Pretoria
said more than 2,000 people had
been arrested under the emer
gency and the others were re
leased.
The emergency was an
nounced July 20 and imposed the
next day in 36 black areas most
affected by the uprising against
apartheid, the system of race seg
regation that guarantees privilege
for South Africa’s 5 million
whites and denies rights to the
black majority of 24 million.
Residents of Diepkloof Zone
One in Soweto, the black city of
1.5 million people outside Johan
nesburg, awoke Tuesday to find a
ring of about 80 armored person
nel carriers around their neigh
borhood of two-room shacks.
Security men moved from
house to house with dogs. A po
lice spokesman in Pretoria said
the army had only a support role,
but residents said soldiers joined
in the searches.
The spokesman in Pretoria
said only that the sweep was “a
crime-prevention operation,” and
the number of people arrested
would be revealed Wednesday.
As residents were questioned
and cleared, police stamped their
hands with small red-ink arrows
that would get them through
checkpoints in the rutted dirt
streets of the black ghetto.
Such occupations of black dis
tricts have been a government
tactic since November. This was
the first time in the year of vio
lence that troops took part in a
police dragnet in Soweto.
One fatal shooting occurred in
a black area at Bethal, a small
farming center 68 miles southeast
of Johannesburg.
Police said an angry mob sur
rounded a black officer on his
way to work, called him a collabo
rator with the whites and threat
ened him. They said he fired his
pistol at the crowd, killing a man,
then arrested a woman and got
away.
Black policemen and township
councilors, considered to be sell
outs to white rule, have become
targets of black mobs and many
have been killed.
Police fired rubber bullets into
about 400 people protesting inad
equate housing in a mixed-race
district on the eastern fringe of
Johannesburg, wounding 10.
They reported eight arrests.
Falwell refers to Tutu as v a phony 7
Associated Press
NEW YORK — The Rev. Jerry
Falwell, returning Tuesday from
a five-day trip to South Africa,
called black Anglican Bishop Des
mond Tutu a “phony” and pro
posed an American campaign of
reinvestment in the white-run
country.
Falwell, head of the fundamen
talist Christian group Moral Ma
jority, told reporters at Kennedy
International Airport that Ameri
cans are getting a slanted version
of events in South Africa.
He said he was assured by
South African President P.W.
Botha that his government is sin
cerely interested in reforming
apartheid, the system by which
South Africa’s white minority re
tains power over the black major
ity.
He said he tried to meet with
Tutu, bishop of Johannesburg
and winner of the Nobel Peace
Prize
