Welsh. Police blamed the explosion on Welsh nationalist extremists who have threatened to disrupt the investiture Tuesday.

They said the bomb blew a three-foot hole in the wall of the Cardiff post office, 150 miles south of here. Prince Charles, 20-year-old heir to the British throne, is to visit Cardiff Saturday after a four-day tour of the country following his investiture as Prince of Wales at historic Caernarvon Castle. Commenting on the reserve callup, a police spokesman said: "It wouldn't surprise me if we have as many as 3,000 men in Caernarvon alone." President Nixon's daughter, Tricia, who will attend the most elaborate royal ceremony since the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953, is bringing her own small army of Secret Service agents. Spokesmen wouldn't say how many security men would accompany her, but one said: "We have no fears for her safety in Wales." Tricia Nixon planned to visit the Wimbledon tennis tournament today before traveling to Wales. The Welsh security force in Caernarvon was beefed up by English policemen, specially briefed to look out for known Welsh extremists.

"We have to memorize 40 or 50 faces of people regarded as suspicious," said one officer. "Nevertheless we look on the investiture as just another job. We will be tolerant with demonstrators, but anyone who gets out of hand will receive tough treatment." The ceremony will be viewed by an estimated television audience of 500 million around the world. Weathermen forecast a cloudy day. Troops of the Royal Household Cavalry staged a final dress rehearsal in Caernarvon today and hundreds of Welsh- (See back page, sec.

m. ir jl Cherry Crop May Be Hurt More Than Half -Inch Of Rain Falls Strong thunderstorms, heavy rain, damaging winds and a spectacular display of inter-cloud lightning occurred over a wide-area of southwestern Michigan early Monday morning. The lightning was particularly spectacular from 9 o'clock till midnight. Immense traceries covered the entire western sky here over Lake Michigan as flash after flash illuminated the sky. Hundreds of people were drawn to their windows and porches to watch.

Fortunately, the lightning caused only light damage. A total of .54 inches of rain was recorded at the Twin Cities airport from Sunday morning until this morning. The U.S. Weather Bureau in Grand Rapids, reported winds up to 55 miles per hour in- Berrien county, and a funnel cloud was spotted aloft three miles south of Grand Haven in Ottawa county 75 miles north of here. Numerous other funnel clouds were spotted in Ottawa, but none touched down, according to the weather bureau.

Damage to southwestern Michigan's tart cherry crop from the high winds is unknown at this time, but undoubtedly some damage did occur. "By and large I think we were fortunate, due to the greenness of the cherries at this time," Harvey Belter, Berrien county horticultural agent said. "Well just have to wait a few days and then take a look." LIGHTNING STARTS FIRE South Haven state police reported that lightning struck an oil tank owned by Ford Oil company in Lee township near Holland, blowing off the top of the tank, setting fire to the tank and completely destroying it. The incident occurred around 11:15 p.m., Sunday night. Lee and Casco township fire departments kept the fire from spreading to two smaller tanks nearby.

The fire burned itself out at 2:10 a.m. Various power lines throughout the area were also knocked out by lightning and falling trees and limbs. Felled trees also blocked several roads in the Grand Junction area, and the strong winds blew a house trailer off its foundation near Edwardsburg. The Indiana and Michigan Electric reported that a tree broke through some power lines in Covert around 2:30 a.m. and that the Whirlpool Corporation's administrative building lost its electrical power for a while, after a jumper cable had been hit by lightning.

I M's sub-station at Scott-dale was also knocked out completely by lightning early this morning and various street lights throughout the Twin Cities area lost their power during the storm. St. Joseph fire fighters reported two lightning strikes but little or no damage followed. At 2:43 a.m. they were called to the Henry Hammer residence, 1237 Riverwood terrace, where lightning damaged an electric range.

At 3:03 a.m. firemen were called to the Mullen division of Potlatch Forests, Hawthorne avenue, where lightning ignited oil in a large transformer. The blaze was extinguished with dry powder. WIND DEVICE HIT The U.S. Coast Guard station in St.

Joseph was unable to give a reading on the wind velocity because the statlon'i anemometer was hit by light ning. Police agencies in the Twin Cities reported that tree limbi fell throughout the area during the storm, but no one was reported Injured, and no road were blocked. The Benton township police radio system to its squad car was also reported put out of commission during the storm for nearly two houri.

They were married in 1940. They traveled throughout the state, getting signatures of 3,000 persons who could trace their ancestry to the 1910 Durant roll, the last federal census of Michigan Indians. After convincing the Bureau of Indian Affairs of Michigan's Indian population, the claim was filed in 1948.

The Indian Claims Commission later recognized the Indian's claims. The money award was announced in recent years. They are seeking an additional $1 million in funds.

More than 600 of the 6,000 members of the Northern Michigan Ottawa Association attended a session in Petoskey this month. The roll of Indians also is expected to increase before distribution day when the funds are awarded. Only about 20 Indians attended the first session at a Petoskey grocery store in 1946, when Dominic outlined his plans to get the federal government to reimburse the Indians for lands taken from them more than 150 years earlier.

U.S. Rep. James Harvey, agrees. Theater owners are afraid, pay TV could get first run movies the same way by outbidding commercial competition.

ONLY 2 QUALIFY Detroit and Grand Rapids are the only Michigan cities that would qualify for pay TV under FCC rules. One Detroit television station news director, who asked not to be identified, confirmed reports that a rush among exisitint stations to get the new licenses would result when the first applications were approved. "Pay TV is a money machine," he said. "You bet we'd want the license, and we'd fight like hell to get it." On the record, his station takes no position on the issue.

Theaters Fightin; Nigeria Kicks Out Red Cross Won't Allow AidToBiafra By MORTON ROSENBLUM LAGOS, Nigeria (AP) Nigeria stunned relief officials today by declaring the government is assuming responsibility for aid efforts on both sides of the civil war and that the International Committee of the Red Cross is no longer authorized to appeal for and accept donations on behalf of Nigeria.

The announcement was made by tiie government's commissioner for information and labor, Chief Anthony Enahoro, at a special meeting attended by representatives of more than 20 relief agencies, including Bern-hard Frey, a member of the governing body of the International Red Cross. WORST THING Frey, who appeared shaken by the announcement, refused to comment, but other relief officials called the statement a "bombshell" and said "this is the worst possible thing." There was no immediate comment from secessionist Biafra, which depends heavily on relief for its existence. In a recent statement, however, it rejected accepting supplies brought through federal ports or airfields. In his statement Enahoro said: "The federal government has decided that the coordinat ing role of the ICRC shall cease forthwith. The ICRC will therefore no longer be competent to appeal for any aid from the in ternational community and for eign donor governments on behalf of the government and people of Nigeria." He said relief would be allowed to continue to isolated Biafra but only after prior approval and inspection by Nigerian authorities.

Supplies, he added, will be restricted to basic essentials and could not include fuel or spare parts. "Any foreign government or agency interested in assisting. must therefore deal with the National Rehabilitation Commission and the appropriate federal ministries," Enahoro said. "Nigerians as a people have always been proud of the fact that Nigeria feeds itself. Nigeria is determined to continue to feed itself." The new approach means a virtual blockade of Biafra, (See back page, sec.

To Keep Free About New Setup Worried DETROIT (AP) Detroit and Grand Rapids television stations are expected to scramble hard for pay TV licenses if and when the Federal Communications Commission begins to issue them. But the licenses will never be issued if theater owners in the two cities and around the nation have their way. In theaters which once considered free TV their arch -enemy, "Save Free TV" signs are popping up. Some theater marquees even carry the message along with the customary announcements of the next attraction. RERUNS IN THEATERS Why? Says Milton H.

London, president of the Michigan branch of the National Association of Theater Owners, "The- Draft Call Is Largest Since '68 LANSING (AP) Michigan draft boards will call up 2,860 men for induction into the Army during August, the largest draft call in Michigan since May, 1968. The call for area counties: Allegan, 31; Berrien, 63; Cass, 15, and Van Buren, 22. ater owners are concerned that once a national network of pay TV stations is put together it will have the means to buy first-run films away from the theaters. We may be forced to show what amounts to reruns." Proponents of pay TV, which would have no commercials, contend enough people would pay to see opera, ballet, theatrical productions and other cultural programming to make such a network go. Cost for the programs would probably range from about 25 cents to three dollars, an experiment run by a Hartford, Conn, station showed.

The Hartford station produced special pay programs for six years until it reverted to its normal status Feb. 1. The station has said it considers the experiment an unqualified success. Partly as a result of the Hartford experiment, the FCC announced in 1968 it would begin accepting applications for the new licenses in June, 1969. But opponents of the pay system maintain it would take top programming now on free TV and put on a pay basis which some viewers could not afford.

U.S. Rep. James D. O'Hara, is the sponsor of a bill which would strip the FCC of its power to issue the licenses. He says "With far greater revenue potential than the commercial networks, the pay television network could easily ob MOST PRIZED POSSESSION: Some little pigs may go to market, but this one, fully grown, is chauffeured by a South Vietnamese man and his wife, as they return to their home in a small village three miles east of Tay Ninh.
