Earlier Thursday, Israeli troops shouting orders through mega phones told all West Bank mer chants to close for three days or their shop doors would be welded shut. The army ordered the ban on commerce to punish Arabs in the West Bank for a one-day strike Wednesday called by Palestine Lib eration Organization. Many strikes have swept the West Bank and Gaza Strip since Dec. 8, when a rebellion against Israeli occu pation began among their 1.5 mil lion Palestinian residents. Israel cap tured the territories from Jordan and Egypt in the 1967 Middle East war. Near Beita village, where a teen age Jewish settler was slain last month, hundreds of Jewish settlers trudged along a mountain path wav ing Israeli flags. They chanted “Ex pel the Arabs!” In the Gaza Strip, troops fired tear gas at 150 youths who set tires ablaze and raised the Palestinian flag to protest the army’s closing of Arab schools. The youths chanted “PLO yes, Israel no!” Soldiers shot and lightly wounded a 15-year-old Arab in the Gaza town of Khan Yunis, Is rael radio said. Hundreds of Arabs have been wounded in the five months of vio lence and at least 184 have been killed. Two Israelis were slain — the teen-ager, Tirza Porat, and a soldier. Police in Jerusalem detained Elias M. Zananiri, managing editor of the Palestine Press Service and the weekly Al Awdah’s Arabic-language edition. T.V. for sporting events.

Two teams conquer summit of Mt. Everest KATMANDU, Nepal (AP) — Two teams reached the summit of Mount Everest from opposite sides Thursday and broadcast stunning pictures of azure skies and the craggy, snow-covered Himalayas ris ing above the clouds at the top of the world. It was the first time two parties had scaled the world’s highest mountain simultaneously, and it was the first live telecast from the sum mit. The 10 climbers wept and con gratulated each other. Some fell to their knees after wading through waist-deep snow to the 29,028-foot peak. They were from Japan, China and Nepal, the nations that received the live broadcast. “This is the greatest event in the history of climbing,” Kunga Sherpa, the leader of the team that climbed from the Nepal side, said as a cam era recorded the breathtaking pan orama. Images were relayed by satellite from a small camera attached to the helmet of Japanese climber Susumu Nakamura. “We made it!” the climbers gas ped, their voices rasping in the thin air. Most wore goggles and oxygen masks along with their red, blue and yellow parkas. Eyebrows were coated with ice in temperatures of about 30 degrees below zero. They stretched bright-colored banners across the summit and scooped dry, powdery snow into small bottles. One poured whisky on the snow to honor mountaineers who have died trying to conquer Ev erest, including Hidetaka Mizuko- shi. He died of a heart attack on a climb last month. The teams began their assaults on Everest last month from base camps on the south face in Nepal and the north face in Tibet. After the rendezvous, in another first, three climbers who scaled the south face descended by the north and three who ascended the north face went down via the south. More than 200 people were in volved in the project, the most ever for an Everest expedition. It was timed to mark the 35th an niversary of the first conquering of Everest — on May 29, 1953, by Ed mund Hillary of New Zealand and Tenzing Norgay, his Sherpa guide. Nearly 200 climbers have reached the summit since then, some more than once. Hillary now is his country’s am bassador to India, Nepal and Ban gladesh. Tenzing, called “Tiger of the Snows” by other Sherpas, died in 1985. -H families take puppies for 1 year ..to train as guide dogs for the blind „ )l aid ■TOPEKA, Kan.

But Kansas was always too far away from any of the schools, until Laylander persuaded Delta Airlines to fly the dogs from Columbus to Kansas City for free. For the children and families who take the dogs, “Ids an opportunity for them to have contact with one of these dogs that is so superior in tem perament and intelligence,” Lay lander said. For the dogs, it’s part of a nec essary process to help them get used to people. “They have to be raised in a fam ily environment and socialized to the world in general,” Laylander said.

They also have to promise to take care of the dogs for a year — and then give them up. “They have to say that yes, they’ll raise the puppy in the house, take it to the veterinarian and complete an obedience course with it,” Laylander said. “They also have to give it up at the end of the year, and sometimes that’s hard.” But, Laylander said, the children know the dogs will help blind peo ple. “We try to remember what we’re raising them for,” Laylander said. Fran Clay’s 18-year-old-daughter, Jodi, has raised two of the dogs — a Labrador named Pollyanna and a boxer named Wiggles. Conuenlent, Family care...
