-J -v- Friday.

Connally, home from a round-the-world mission Friday and give him a "very important" new government job.

The President disclosed in his last news conference two weeks ago that he had another job in secretary and Texas governor, who returned Tuesday from a 33-day tour that took him to 15 nations for conferences with foreign leaders. The President did not not immediately disclose details of the new assignment, but it probably will be a job that will keep Connally injhe public eye. BELFAST, Northern Ireland (AP) Gun battles raged through the night in Roman Catholic districts of Belfast and continued Friday after the British army abandoned its "low profile" and took the offensive against guerrillas of the Irish Republican Army. Three soldiers and three civilians were reported killed, raising the confirmed death toll to 16 since Wednesday and to 432 in the three years of communal violence in Northern Ireland. 'The army claimed to have hit more than 30 gunmen, but recovered no bodies because the guerrillas carry away their casualties for burial or treatment.

REYKJAVIK, Iceland (AP) An appeals committee rejected Friday Bobby Fischer's protest against his loss of Thursday's world championship chess game by forfeit. The four-man committee supported the decision of chief referee Lothar Schmid to award the game to Boris Spassky because Fischer failed to appear.

It was the first time the army had entered one of the districts taken over by the IRA. In the past such areas have been off limits to prevent a confrontation with the guerrillas holding sway there.

Protestant militants have been demanding for months that the army go into the no go areas and clean out the IRA. The invasion of Andersonstown will probably intensify the Protestants' demands that the army now go into the barricaded areas of Londonderry that are the most famous symbols of Catholic defiance, the Bogside and Greggan districts, or "Free Derry," as the IRA calls them. Army headquarters said about 700 men remained in control of Andersonstown early today but said it did not know how long they would stay there. The invasion of Andersonstown was ordered by Britain's administrator for Northern Ireland, William Whitelaw, Army headquarters said. It marked a reversal, at least temporarily, of Whitelaw's policy of reducing military activity in an effort to wean away the grassroots Catholic support of the IRA.

The retaliation began shortly before midnight. A sandbagged Army fortification on Lenadoon Avenue had been under heavy IRA attack with guns and bombs for five hours. At one stage a rocket was fired at the post but the missile missed and hit a neighboring house. About 30 soldiers inside held out until some 1,800 men moved up in armored personnel carriers. A soldier was killed and another wounded as the troops occupied the district, but otherwise the task force met little resistance.

The army said the IRA was taken by surprise. Andersonstown was quiet after the takeover, but violence immediately erupted in the Ar-doyne, Falls Road, Bal-lymurphy, New Lodge and Divis precincts, and in the city center. ti hf BUltuga tfazrttr Published Dairy and Sunday by THE GAZETTE PRINTING COMPANY Billings, Montana. 59103 Second-Class Postage Paid at Bilbngs, Montana MAIL SUBSCRIPTION RATES PAYABLE IN ADVANCE With Without Sunday Sunday Sunday One Year S20 00 (24 00 $13 00 Sis Months 17 00 14 00 00 Three Months 10 00 9 00 The above rates apply to Montana, Wyoming 'and North Dakota subscriptions only.
