A A executive Henry Ford II was driving on the wrong side of the road when he was arrested for driving under the influence of liquor, police say. a DuRoss, a Detroit model, was with Ford when he was arrested, police said. She was not held. Ford, 57, chairman of Ford Motor spent more than three hours in the Santa Barbara County jail before posting $375 bail early Sunday, the sheriff's department said Monday. He paid the money in cash himself and was ordered to appear in Municipal Court on March 7.

He could be fined $375 if convicted. The arresting officer, H.G. Hunt of the California Highway Patrol, said Ford "was weaving in the lane" of one of the main commercial streets of suburban Goleta when he was stopped at 11:45 p.m. Saturday. Hunt said Ford was driving 20 miles an hour southbound in the northbound lane when he first saw the 1975 two-door Ford sedan the auto maker was driving.

Hunt said he watched as the auto crossed over the white center-stripe several times. Ford was booked and fingerprinted, listing his occupation as chairman of the Ford Motor Co. A spokesman for the California Highway Patrol said Ford was given a blood test to determine his sobriety before he was charged with driving under the influence of an alcoholic beverage. Results of the test are expected today. Ford was back in Detroit on Monday, sitting in his spot at the head table of the Detroit Economic Club.

Ford Co. spokesman William Goodell confirmed that Ford had received "a traffic ticket" in California, but he would not discuss details of the incident. It was not known why Ford and Mrs. DuRoss were in the Santa Barbara area. She was not available for comment.

Mrs. DuRoss, 35, was described by Ford associates as a longtime friend of the auto executive. She lives in fashionable Grosse Pointe with two teenage daughters. 'Zebra 9 Suit Seeks $14 Million SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) Mayor Joseph Alioto and the S.an Francisco Police Department are defendants in a $14 million damage suit related to last year's "Zebra" street slayings. The suit was filed Monday by sieven men rounded up last May in connection with the random killings, code- named "Zebra" by the police.

Four of the arrested were released for lack of evidence. The action asks damages for false arrests and the "fright, shame, humiliation, embarrassment and worry" suffered by the seven men, who said they were "wholly innocent of the charges." Named in the action are Alioto, Police Chief Donald Scott, District Attorney James Ferndon and six police homicide inspectors. Twelve whites were shot at random in the city last year over a period of several months. All seven of the suspects arrested after a citywide stop and search ol black males worked at Black Self-Help, a moving and storage firm. The three men awaiting trial are Larry Craig Green a a Moore and J.C.

Simon. A fourth defendant in the trial, Jessie Lee Cooks pleaded guilty to a street murder while at San Quentir Prison. He was not a party ir the suit. ATHENS, Greece (AP) The Greek government is reported interrogating at least 30 officers to find out how much of the armed forces was involved In an attempt to overthrow Premier Constantine Caraman- lis an return the former military dictators to power. The announced Monday that it had suppressed an attempt to restort the military junta that collapsed seven months ago.

Military sources said the conspirators arrested included the commander of the main tank division in Athens, a brigadier, two colonels and a number of majors and captains. About 200 young supporters of the government demonstrated in a square Monday night, chanting "Hang the junta!" and "Turn the junta over to the people!" Other. Greek cities were reported calm with no put- ward signs of unusual military activity. The Athens announcement touched off a wave of anxiety in Cyprus, where the pro-junta Greek Army officers who overthrew President Makarios last July and their supporters in the Eoka-B underground are all still at large. But there, too, there was no sign of unusual military activity.

Defense Minister Evangelos Averoff-Tositsas said in a broadcast that a very small number of "senseless, unrepentant officers were involved in the plot. He said they were linked to the leaders of the dictatorship who are all in jail awaiting trial on treason and insurrection charges. These include George Papadopoulos. who led the colonels' coup in April 1967, and the military police chief, Brig. Dimitrios loannides, who ousted Papadopoulos in November 1973.

Sihanouk, Chou Confer HONG KONG I Prince Norodom Sihanouk, nominal head of the Communist rebel movement in Cambodia, met with Chou En-lai Monday in a Peking Hospital. The New China News Agency said in a broadcast monitored here the two held a bedside meeting in the hospital where the Chinese premier is resting. Averoff-Tositsas did not disclose the number of officers involved but said they averaged less than one in a thousand. The Greek armed forces total about 160,000 men, but the total number of officers was not available. The minister said the armed forces had been put on the alert and measures taken to "mercilessly suppress anybody who deviates from the path of duty and honor." He assured the nation that "democracy is' safe and strongly entrenched around the elected government." Military sources said the plotters planned to make their attempt early Monday i using light armored vehicles to sejze strategic points in major cities.

However, their plan was discovered while they were still trying to persuade other officers to join them. WASHINGTON (AP) The Senate remains paralyzed the fight over a proposed change in rules to make it easier to cut off filibusters. A recess was taken Monday night until today after eight roll call votes failed to resolve the impasse. Caught up in the complex parliamentary maneuvering was a House-passed bill to provide $347 million in federal aid for the Penn Central and other i a i a strapped railroads. Each side in the rules battle blamed the other for preventing action on the rail bill.

Sen. Walter F. Mondale, a sponsor of the rules change, accused opponents of holding the bill hostage at the risk of throwing thousands of workers out of their jobs. Those opposed to a new rule on filibusters said spon- sors of the change had to take responsibility for block-. ing a vote on the bill.

Sen. Vance Hartke, floor manager for the bill, said he favored making it easier to curb filibusters but did not regard this as "more important than keeping the nation's transportation system going." He said that unless the Senate passes the i quickly, the nation will suffer economic chaos. Emergency funds provided the Penn Central Monday by the government will only enable the railroad to keep operating until the end of the week, he said. A petition filed by Hartke and 20 other senators to shut off debate on the bill will come to a vote Wednesday and will require a two-thirds majority. This two-thirds rule is what Monale and his allies are trying to change.
