A few Greek Cypriote still wandering the streets said they did not want to abandon their houses. But they said they feared that the local Turkish Cypriots, with their new freedom, might embark on an orgy of looting through the Greek sector. Famagusta on Thursday night was silent and dark. The only glow of light came from a smouldering fire left over from the day's fighting. Telephones, however, were still working perfectly, maintaining a convenient Cloud appears over Bus fund ruling By Associated Press Turkish forces reported closing the last gap in their assault line Friday, putting one-third of Cyprus under Turkish control as both sides declared a cease-fire at dusk to end a three-day war.

The government of Cyprus President Glafcos Clerides, which abandoned the battered capital of Nicosia as Turkish planes and mortars pounded the outskirts, announced that Greek Cypriot forces would quit fighting at 6 p.m. 11 a.m. CDT. From Ankara, Premier Bulent Ecevit declared his forces would halt their offensive at the same deadline. For five or six minutes after the cease-.

fire deadline, sporadic firing continued in the capital. But as CDT -the fighting appeared to have ended at least temporarily. Turkish forces had already captured Famagusta, 35 miles east of the capital of Nicosia, and had been driving on Lefka, 30 miles west of the capital. At the same time, Turkish air and artillery attacks forced the Cyprus government to abandon the capital and flee to the south coast port of Limassol. Cyprus President Glafcos Clerides and his ministers fled so hurriedly that the doors of the deserted presidential offices were left banging in the wind.

There was no evidence that any attempt had been made to remove files or other papers. The building was completely deserted. Ecevit said the Turkish troops were expected to reach their "military objectives no later than the cease-fire hour." He said the military objectives did not exceed the political ones Turkey asked for The Turkish radio said the Turks also captured the naval base at Boghaz, 10 miles north of Famagusta. Another Turkish column was pushing westward to extend the line from Nicosia to Lefka, on the northwest coast. It was reported six miles from Morphou, a major town 21 miles west of Nicosia and 10 miles from Lefka.

The Turkish Cypriot radio reported Greek and Greek Cypriot troops were "retreating in panic" from Lefka. The Greek Cypriots were believed to have abandoned Morphou also. Another Turkish Cypriot broadcast said ed the auxiliary services act. The lawmakers appropriated $2.2 million for equipment and $2.2 million for operating costs for transporting non-public students by public school districts. The legislators did not appropriate any money per se for auxiliary services as they were defined in the previous act.

The plaintiffs in the law suit filed a motion in June to amend and supplement their pleadings to reflect action taken by the 1974 legislature. They argued the legislature had replaced the auxiliary service statute "with one of similar impact and import." The court granted them permission to amend their pleadings.

"Those boxcars should never be handl ed throught that bridge," said division manager B. Carlisle. "They (the ground crew) forgot about that big they must have fallen asleep." The boxcar came within a foot of clear ing, according to Carlisle, who said the crew had been instructed not to send the train along that spur.

President Ford urged immediate compliance. In Ankara, Foreign Minister Turan Gunes said Turkey might accept appeals to reopen the Geneva negotiations "if we are accorded a more serious and responsive attitude." Turkey walked out of the Geneva talks on Wednesday and resumed military action when the Greek Cypriots rejected a Turkish proposal for creation of six autonomous Turkish Cypriot enclaves scattered around the island. whether these specific school districts could be singled out in the law suit. Even if the schools were dropped as defendants, however, the suit probably would continue since several individuals were named initially as defendants including Dr. Robert Benton, state superintendent of public instruction.

In all, there are only 10 shelter managers with training. Among those without training are Lowell Wilbur and Mrs.

Lenore Clifford, shelter managers for the Mason City-Public Library and Madison Elementary School, respectively. Wilbur says he does not feel adequately equipped to divide food among shelter occupants or to retain law and order, though he does have first-aid training. In fact, Wilbur has never spoken to Mrs. Navratil about bis duties. Mrs.

Clifford said she needs to do a "little reviewing" of the total community preparedness plan. There are several questions, Mrs. Clifford said, including which persons are to be allowed to enter shelters, how they are to be let in and whether the shelters are even adequate to handle them. "If the time came, I probably would (Please turn to Page 2) at the Geneva conference table. The objectives apparently involve carving out a Turkish sector in the northern third of the island which would be cut off from the south by a line bisecting Cyprus from Lefka in the west to Famagusta in the east.

The Turkish troops already have taken Famagusta, and Ecevit's statement indicated that they expected to take Lefka too by the cease-fire deadline. Meanwhile, the danger of war between Greece and Turkey lessened as Greek Premier Constantine Caramanlis said in a broadcast that the Greek army would not reinforce the Greek Cypriot troops because this would leave Greece defenseless. Turkish tanks late Thursday afternoon rolled into Famagusta, the Mediterranean island's chief port. The action established a 35-mile line from the capital, Nicosia, to the east coast. Associated Press Correspondent Peter Arnett reported that the Greek Cypriot national guard and police fled from the city, and the Greek Cypriot quarter was deserted.

There-was no opposition as Turkish troops moved from the Turkish-Cypriot sector into the Greek quarter Friday. Arnett reported that he and two other newsmen had the choice of sleeping in any of 40 empty luxury hotels along the beach. The Greek police also had fled the most important port in Cyprus, and Greek Cypriot soldiers seemed to have disappeared completely. At dusk, even the oldest Greeks were heading south toward the sanctuary of the British base at Dhekelia. The coolest heads in the Greek part of Famagusta were the United Nations soldiers and policemen who counted the The suit was filed several years ago.

The Nedveds claimed in their petition that Daniel, then. 16, was wearing a suit of pajamas sold by Penney's when he suffered first, second and third degree burns over his entire body from the waist up. The accident occurred in September 1969 in the Nedved home. The Nedveds claimed Daniel was standing near an electric stove when he was engulfed in flames. The eight-day trial was conducted before Judge William C.

Hanson. The jury disallowed Penney's cross petition for indemnity against Harwood Manufacturing which was named as the maker of the pajamas. The Nedveds were represented by Warren DeVries, Mason City, and Edward Gallagher, Waterloo. Turkish jets were heavily bombing the highway from Paphos, in southwest Cyprus, to Lefka to prevent Greek Cypriot reinforcements from reaching Lefka. Turkish jets resumed bombing and strafing attacks around Nicosia at dawn for the third day, and there was little antiaircraft fire.

The chief targets were the camp two miles west of the city of the 950-man Greek army contingent assigned to Cyprus, and a five-mile strip of factories on the eastern outskirts. However, the Turks made no attempt to advance into the Greek Cypriot sector. torneys for the plaintiffs, asked the federal panel to clarify the terms of the injunction. The panel has not acted upon this request. Apparently the state's attorneys do not believe the injunction granted last fall applies under the new legislative act.

Adding to the confusion is a recent U.S. Supreme Court decision which greatly restricts class action law suits. The law suit may fall into the category of a class action suit, in part, because it names several individual school districts to represent all districts similarly situated. The state, on July 25, asked for a determination from the federal panel as to Gov. Robert Ray, Steven Rapp and David Stanley were the winners in the "straw vote" taken in the Globe-Gazette booth at the 1974 North Iowa Fair.

Gov. Ray, seeking his fourth term, easily defeated his Democratic opponent, James Schaben of Dunlop. Ray received 359 votes to 192 for Schaben. In the "straw vote" for Third District Congress, Rapp, Waterloo Democrat, handily defeated Charles Grassley, New Hart Norma Navratil C'v7 Defense director more trained managers. Although most shelters are without trained managers, there are a few exceptions.

Richard Kaduce, shelter manager for the county courthouse, said he feels "adequately equipped" to handle his duties. He spent 24 hours of "actual operations" several years ago under the supervision of James Francis, then director of Civil Defense here. But the general public may never benefit from Kaduce's training. The courthouse shelter will serve as central command headquarters for the county and shelter inhabitants will be heads of government. to on Mason Cityans receive $207,500 judgment By Harrison Weber Iowa Daily Press Association DES MOINES There appears to be a legal cloud over action taken by the school budget review committee in allocating nearly $2 million to 47 Iowa public school districts to purchase buses to transport non-public school students.

The committee's action is expected to' come under scrutiny because of a law suit pending in federal court in Des Moines which challenges the state's auxiliary services act. The suit was filed last year by the Americans United for Separation of Church and State, the Iowa Civil Liberties Union Foundation and 10 individuals. They claim the law violated the principle of separation of church and state. The 1973 Iowa Legislature approved spending $2.2 million annually for auxiliary services to the state's 65,000 private and parochial students. These services, to be administered through the public school system, were to include such things as remedial education, guidance and audio visual aids.

A three-judge federal panel granted a temporary injunction last fall preventing the state's auxiliary services law from going into effect.

Citizens stream to their neighborhood shelter, where one man the shelter manager is the veritable lord of his domain. He decides who comes into the shelter and later decides what they eat and drink. Such a possibility raises several questions.

The questions become especially pointed when one realizes two things: There is no official record of persons to serve as shelter managers and most managers, who are volunteers, are without training. There are 66 marked and licensed shelters in Cerro Gordo County. There has never beeen a "true record" kept on the persons serving as shelter managers and the persons reading geiger counters (RADEF monitors), according to Norma Navratil, director of Cerro Gordo County-Municipal Civil Defense.

Bouncers still after record Giob-Caittt news service CLEAR LAKE North Iowa's "tag team trampolinists" are reported tiring but determined in their quest to set a world's "bouncing" record. Brad Morel and Todd Kephart began jumping Wednesday morning at the Morel cottage in Clear Lake, taking turns in 21 j-hour shifts in their quost for gymnastic glory.

They were still bouncing as of Friday forenoon. "They're beginning to get a little tired, reported Mrs. Richard Morel, mother of bouncing Brad. "They're still able to do flips, but not a lot of fancy jumping like when they started out." The trampolinists have attracted spectators from passing cars, bike riders and even boats on the lake, said Mrs. Morel.

The venture scheduled to end Sunday. counted for in terms of personnel. How did such a situation arise? Explanation No record awaited Mrs. Navratil when she assumed her duties in December 1972. Six months later, she took some action.

Mrs. Navratil mailed letters to persons who own or manage buildings housing shelters. She asked them to appoint shelter managers and RADEF monitors for their particular shelters. She mailed 66 requests and received 27 replies. The replies named persons who could serve as either shelter managers or RADEF monitors, although a majority of these persons had no training.

No followup has been made on these persons, Mrs. Navratil said, adding that some may have resigned. What happens if suddenly there is a nuclear attack? "If there were a nuclear attack, managers would be appointed on a volunteer basis and would undergo a very fast training procedure," said Mrs. Navratil. Who would appoint managers? Mrs.
