WATCH FOR BARGAINS IN Tin BATTALION!! High Sierra shaking with aftershocks hi Nation BISHOP, Calif. (AP) — Hun dreds of aftershocks rattled the High Sierra on Tuesday, one day af ter a severe earthquake rumbled across the land, and scientists said more big quakes are possible soon in the same-area. The largest of Tuesday’s af tershocks measured 4.7 on the Rich ter scale at 6:34 a.m., seismologists at the University of California-Berke- ley said. More destructive earthquakes are possible during the next few days, experts said, although they pegged the probability of such temblors at about 2 percent to 5 percent. Israeli prime minister Peres meets with Moroccan king The earthquake at 7:42 a.m. Mon day left 50 people homeless, swayed buildings as far away as Salt Lake City and Las Vegas, caused rock slides and briefly stranded hundreds of campers. Authorities reported just two minor injLiries. It was estimated at 6.1 on the Richter scale, centered in the High Sierra 240 miles north of Los An geles and five miles from the 300- resident community of Chalfant Val ley, which sustained the heaviest damage. RABAT, Morocco (AP) — King Hassan II met with Israel’s prime minister Tuesday behind a heavy guard at the his forest-fringed sum mer palace. Militant Arabs accused him of treason and Syria broke rela tions with Morocco. The controlled news media kept silent on the visit by Shimon Peres, the first by a serving Israeli prime minister to any Arab nation other than Egypt, with which Israel signed a peace treaty in 1979. Troops and police ringed the pro- Western monarch’s mountain palace at Ifrane, 125 miles east of Rabat, and access was barred to outsiders. Israeli reporters who arrived with Peres on the surprise trip to this North African nation on Monday night were in a luxury hotel within the security belt, apparently unable to communicate with the outside world. Moroccan officials acknowledged privately that the talks were in pro gress, for the first time since the Is- U.S. economy growth slowest since 1982 TYPING: Accurate 6c Fast, call after TOO. anvtime weekends. 776-4013. 172t8/2 WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. economy grew last spring at the slowest pace since the end of the last recession, the government said Tuesday in a report that cast doubt on administration predictions that a substantial pickup is just ahead. The Commerce Department said the gross national product, the broa dest measure of economic health, expanded at an annual rate of 1.1 percent from April through June, less than one-third the 3.8 percent growth during the first three months of the year. The president’s chief economist said the weakness in the second quarter reflected temporary adjust ments rather than a signal that the 44-month old recovery is about to end. However, private economists were not as confident, expressing concern that near-recession conditions in manufacturing, oil drilling and farming could spread to the rest of the economy. “We believe that the trouble spots in the economy are contaminating the strong spots,” said Donald Stasz- heim, chief economist at the New York investment firm of Merrill Lynch. He said Merrill Lynch is now fore casting 1 percent growth in the cur rent July-September quarter and an actual decline in the GNP of 1 per cent from October through Decem ber. While two consecutive quarters of falling GNP would qualify as a reces sion, Straszheim said Merrill Lynch was not yet forecasting a recession. The Reagan administration had been predicting a robust 4 percent annual expansion rate this year, and administration forecasters said they were still looking for'a substantail re bound in the second half of the year.

In the meantime system employees will en courage new research between Sys tem and medical center scientists, he said. Eller proposed July 7 that the Sys tem establish a medical research cen ter at the medical complex. Medical Center officials said they would be in favor of such a facility and offered four acres of land near the now- closed Shamrock Hotel. A&M officials envision a $30 mil lion facility that will house a variety of special medical research pro grams. Eller said the “Commitment to Texas” is designed to broaden Texas’ economic base. The program will emphasize research and devel opment in high-technology fields and could create thousands of new jobs for Texans, he said. The $53.3 million commitment, according to the regent’s agenda, will concentrate on programs in Texas and the people of Texas. The regents voted to commit $35.4 million to programs such as high-technology research, engi neering initiatives and research sup port (library enhancement and com puter upgrading). They committed $17.8 million to the “people phase” of the program. These monies will be used to protect the present status of the system’s fac ulty, attract and retain new scholars, and match private contributions for- endowed faculty positions.

They would say little more, however, and spoke on condition of anonym ity. One senior Moroccan source said Rafi Edri, parliamentary whip for the prime minister’s Labor Party, was with Peres. Edri, born in Mo rocco, has made several visits here recently. “I have no information about any one else taking part,” the official said. Western diplomats, also speaking on condition of anonymity, said the meeting was carefully prepared, with “friendly leaders” informed in advance, including President Rea gan and King Fahd of Saudi Arabia. me, because we want to live i; peace.” Arab militants raised an omen accusing Hassan of “a betrayal of lit Arab cause.” President Hafez Assad of Su. said he was breaking relations wf Morocco. M oammar Gadhafi of Libi: whose country is linked to Hassan by a 2-year-old treaty of union, sail receiving Peres was a "grave viola tion” of that agreement but stoppt: short of breaking formal ties. President Hosni Mubarak of Egypt said of the talks: “If they are going to present us with new initia tives for a solution, I support this with everything in my power and I believe the whole nation agrees with Iraq said the meeting was a“dn v iationist and strange” move bvHas san. An Algerian governmm spokesman branded the visit “a: outrage against the entire Arab na tion and an unspeakable violation its most sacred cause, the liberatio: of Palestine." Algeria anti Morocco, struggiini over the Western Sahara, have had diplomatic relations for near) 11 years. The thresholds of the future are in research and education, he said.

President of Playboy criticizes report DALLAS (AP) — Christie Hefner, president of Playboy En terprises Inc., said Tuesday that a federal commission’s report on pornography is leading to a re pressive society, misses reality and exceeds the government’s proper role. Appearing before a group of Dallas attorneys, Hefner cross-ex amined the findings of the Attor ney General’s Commission on Pornography. “The Meese Commission is not only wrong . . . but at odds with the mandate given by tlie voters to President Reagan to get the government out of peoples lives,” she said, adding: “For what is more intrusive than to govern what people read, believe, see and practice in the privacy of (heir own homes?” Light showers give little relief to farmers (AP) — Cloudy skies and scat tered rain brought temporary re lief Tuesday from the Southeast’s heat wave but did little for its drought. And more farmers with withered crops told a federal task force they need help. The death toll from the heat reached 38 Tuesday. Increased cloud cover kept temperatures in the upper 80s and mid 90s instead of 100 Tues day across much of die Carolinas and Georgia, although Macon, Ga., reached 99. Before the scattered thunder storms, Columbia had a record string of 15 consecutive days of highs at or above 100 degrees. Crop losses have been esti mated at up to $700 million for farmers already hard-hit by rising costs and falling prices in Vir ginia, the Carolinas and Georgia. ‘Captain Midnight’ enters plea bargai WASHINGTON (AP) — A man who sells backyard satellite television dishes admitted in fed eral court Tuesday that he is the “Captain Midnight” who aimed a TV signal at HBO’s satellite last April and blew it off the air for 4V-2 minutes. His transmission protested the scrambling of some of the most popular satellite TV signals. Scrambling caused customers to stop buying dishes.

MacDougall of Ocala, Fla., as the one who in terrupted a movie on the HBO channel on April 27. MacDougall entered intoaplea bargaining agreement in U.S. District Court in Jacksonville, Fla. U.S. Attorney Larry Gentile said the deal calls for the govern ment to recommend a $5,000 fine and one year’s probation.
