in 1984 and re-approved in 1987 for Soldiers Trying To Halt Forest Fires In Northwest By The Associated Press Soldiers began battling forest fires on Friday that have charred thousands of acres in the Northwest, as flying ash from a Southern California blaze forced astronomers to close the Mount Palomar observatory. Forest, brush and grass also burned in Oregon and Nebraska, with small fires in Utah and Wyoming. More than 21,000 people were at work fighting fires throughout the West, according to the Boise Interagency Fire Center in Idaho, the nation's fire suppression headquarters. Almost 225,000 acres had been blackened or were burning since a rash of lightning storms in the middle of last week. Some fire crews had been at work more than a week; fresh firefighters have become rare.

"We are stretched for firefighting and they're going to be harder to get," said Dave Rittersbacher, supervisor of the Boise National Forest in Idaho. But firefighters in Idaho and Oregon were to get help from the Army. About 1,300 soldiers and support personnel from Fort Carson, and Fort Riley, were scheduled to arrive in Idaho today, said 8th Infantry Col. Anthony Trifiletti. About 1,300 soldiers from the 9th Infantry, based at Fort Lewis, were scheduled to begin training in eastern Oregon on Friday before moving to more hazardous duty Saturday.

Among the highest priorities among Idaho's 38 major fires Friday was the Lowman Complex of fires, which razed the community of Lowman last weekend northeast of Boise. Those fires grew to more than 39,000 acres after firefighters intentionally combined fires with the Iron Triangle fire for better control, said a spokeswoman. Only one-fifth of the complex was considered contained. "We're in for a long siege on the Lowman Complex," Rittersbacher said. In eastern Oregon, six major fires and at least four smaller fires damaged about 82,000 acres of the timber and grazing land, killing cattle and chasing residents from their homes.

About 2,000 firefighters battled the region's biggest blaze, at Canal Creek on the boundary of the Eagle Cap Wilderness northeast of Baker near Enterprise. Firefighters expected to contain the fire by Sunday evening. In Southern California, some 1,800 firefighters had contained little more than 57 percent of a week-old blaze in the Cleveland National Forest. The fire 90 miles southeast of Los Angeles burned to within three miles of the historic Mount Palomar Observatory, the nation's largest optical telescope, before wind moved the fire away, authorities said Friday. Officials were forced to close the observatory to prevent ash from damaging the telescope's $20 million mirror.

Chinese Intellectuals Given Reassurance: No Crackdown BEIJING (AP) China said Friday that it would not crack down on intellectuals even though some had participated in recent pro-democracy protests. At the same time, it stripped Fang Lizhi, a leading dissident, of his post on an academic board. An unsigned commentary in the Communist Party newspaper, People's Daily, appeared to be aimed at reassuring China's educated elite, some of whom have come under sharp attack for supporting what the party calls "bourgeois liberalism" Western liberal ideas and the prodemocracy movement, led by students. "There has been some concern as to whether the party's policy toward intellectuals would change. It is necessary to reaffirm that has not changed and will not change," the commentary said.

But it called the intellectuals who took part in the student movement "scum of the intellectuals do not represent the intellectuals" and "enemies of the party and of the people." The army's violent crackdown on mass demonstrations in early June has ushered in a new era of repression. The crackdown has brought an end to a period of relatively free political debate. Newspapers once more are under strict party control, and the works of 10 writers, including Fang, have been banned. The state-run New China news agency said Friday that Fang, an astrophysicist, was relieved of his position on the Academic Degrees Committee under the State Council, China's Cabinet, and of his qualification to tutor doctoral students. Fang, who took refuge inside the U.S.

Embassy in Beijing with his wife shortly after the crackdown, already had lost another minor post but apparently still keeps his main job at the Beijing Observatory. The government has issued arrest warrants for Fang and his wife, physics professor Li Shuxian, on charges of inciting pro-democracy protests. It also has demanded that the U.S. Embassy turn them over to Chinese authorities. Thousands of students, intellectuals and others are believed to have been arrested for participating in the seven-week movement.

Jeremy Margolis, director of the Illinois State Police, said only, "We have a suspect, and a number of leads are being worked." The police were conducting a detailed search of the area and a canvass of residents in the neighborhood Friday. Fort has been a trooper for five years and was an officer with the police in East St. Louis before that.

He is single. He was one of 16 troopers assigned to patrol in East St. Louis for the last three years. Capt. Bobby L.

Henry, district commander, said the shooting was the most serious incident since the State Police began patrolling East St. Louis to help the police there three years ago. a news conference early Friday, Margolis called for help from the residents of East St. Louis and Centreville who may have information about the case. He asked them to call the State Police in Collinsville at (618) 346- 3600.

"Trooper Fort has served with distinction in that town," Margolis said. Margolis described the man being sought as a young black man, 5-foot-9 to 5-foot-10, weighing 165 to 170 pounds, and wearing light-colored T-shirt, dark pants and a cap. Margolis said information already given by some witnesses had helped the investigation. The shooting was the first of a trooper in at least 25 years in District 11, which covers the Metro East area. Henry said he believed it was the first since the 1930s or 1940s.

But a former trooper told the Post-Dispatch that a trooper had been shot in the Lintzenich said his department had concluded that no one else was involved in the shootings. Police were called about 3:30 p.m. by a cleaning woman, who discovered the bodies a bedroom when she went to the couple's home on Catawba Street in Swansea, Lintzenich said.

He singled out the St. Louis police and the Missouri Highway Patrol for their help. Margolis arrived in Collinsville early Friday to oversee the investigation. He said the incident began at 1:45 a.m. Friday when Fort tried to stop a car for an unspecified traffic violation at 25th and Market streets in East St.

Louis. The driver of the car refused to stop until he reached the 4200 block of Market Street in Centreville, when he pulled over, shut off his lights and jumped out of the car. The man and Fort scuffled, Margolis said, and the man then fired two shots at close range from a small caliber pistol. Fort was struck in the upper left arm, the bullet passing through and entering his chest, where it grazed a lung, went through the spleen en and colon, broke a rib and lodged in a muscle in Fort's back. Margolis said Fort was able to draw his 9mm, semi-automatic pistol and fire two shots at the man as he ran away.

Margolis said the man may have been wounded, based on statements from some witnesses. But he said no blood other than Fort's was found at the scene. He said powder burns on Fort's arm indicated he had been shot while the men were "within arm's The man's car was a Ford Torino from the early 1970s and had a Missouri license plate. State Police computers did not show it as being stolen, Margolis said. Fort was conscious when another trooper reached the scene, Margolis said.

He was taken to Centreville Township Hospital and then flown by helicopter to St. Louis University Medical Center. -IndexAuer Auksarawongrot, Pamela Borden, Edwin M. (Mike) Boswell, Edward L. Buck, Frederick F.
