ICOSIA, Cyprus (AP) -The Greek Cypriot president of Cyprus, Archbishop Makarios, mingled with more than 1,000 rioting Greek Cypriots outside the American Embassy's information, center today to prevent an attack on it. The black-robed, bearded a i a i shortly after Greek Cypriot troops fired repeatedly in the air in an attempt to stop the rioters.

Defying tear gas and water cannons turned on them, the demonstrators advanced, stoning troops and police. Yelling with glee, they began breaking down the iron-sheathed door of the two-story building when spread through the crowd: coming." As he got out of his car, the crowd packed close around him chanting his name and "Out with the base Down with imperialism Makarios to Moscow." The archbishop climbed the Train Crash Kills 1 AKLAND, Calif. (AP) One worker was killed and two others injured when a Bay Area Rapid Transit test train collided head on with a i i A spokesman reported. The nine-car train, which was carrying no passengers during Sunday night's test run, had been given clearance to run northbound on a southbound track after the maintenance vehicle reported to central control that it was out of the way, BART information officer Dave Kelsey said. "The a i a vehicle was supposed to be working on the northbound tracks and he reported himself there, but was on the southbound moving south toward the train," Kelsey said, "The driver of the train had sufficient time to see it, hit the slop button and flee the cab." Kelsey said.

A spokesman at i a Hospital said Arthur Briggs, 40, of Richmond, was dead on arrival with extensive injuries to the head. The other men hurt were identified as Billy Goid Prices Drop LONDON (AP) The price of gold dropped $1 to on Europe's major bullion markets today. London's five major dealers fixed the price for i trading at $172.75 an ounce, a dollar below Friday's closing price. In i gold opened at S173.50 an ounce, down from 174.75.

The maintenance vehicle -sent out to clean the tracks and caulk the tunnels was an i a which can run on streets or rails. Kelsey said it was not heavy enough to activate the automatic control system's detection signal. Witnesses said the maintenance vehicle was crumbled by the crash and pushed off the tracks. Two train cars, worth about $300,000 each, were derailed. BART's high speed commuter trains do not carry passengers on weekends, but sometimes make test runs, The transit district has been plagued with financial and operational difficulties since the system began operating.

He said he shared their anger against the British decision to let 10,000 Turkish Cypriot refugees be transferred from British base areas in southern Cyprus to Turkey. But he said: "You must not. resort to violence. Please disperse quietly." "Well, in that case follow me," he said, and led them down the street to the Greek Embassy a quarter of a mile away.

"He is leading us like a shepherd," said many of the demonstrators, laughing. But they followed him. Makarios stood on the steps of the Greek Embassy for half an hour, counseling the mob to have faith in their government and to abstain from violence, Finally the crowd dispersed. It was the fifth straight day of anti-American and a i British demonstrations protesting the evacuation of the Turkish Cypriote. The Greek Cypriote believe they are going to be resettled on Greek Cypriot property in northern Cyprus, which the i army captured in its invasion last summer.

A two-hour protest strike was called to swell the street crowds. During the night, small explosions did minor damage to a water pipeline and a warehouse used by -the British forces in southern Cyprus.

The British newspaper The Guardian published an interview with Turkish Foreign Minister Melih Ese.nbel in which he said the Greek Cypriote must understand "there is no possibility of turning the clock back" and Turkey will insist that Cyprus become- a feder ation of Turkish and Greek Cypriot zones. "Once this is accepted.

Turkey will agree to discuss modification of the present borders," he said The borders are negotiable." He also told the newspaper a the i a a of Turkish troops from the island depends on progress toward a political settlement. Doctors find Powerful Drug COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -Two Ohio State University re- say they have what may be the most powerful vaccine ever made to prevent the disease known as "walking pneumonia." Drs. Norman. L. Somerson and Vincent V-.

Hamparian said-the-vaccine was developed at Columbus Children's Hospital on a $440,000 grant from the National Institute of Health. "Walking pneumonia is officially known as Mycoplasma pneumonia and is rarely fatal. It lasts from three, weeks to several months, is mild and is accompanied by. some fever, severe headaches and a bad cough which sometimes persists for months, the doctors said. Somerson began work on the project in 1966 and Hamparian three years ago.

The mycoplasma pneumonia germ was discovered in 1962. The Columbus researchers said they have grown it in bottles, killed it and prepared it in concentrated form for injection to produce immunization.
