Wall Street NEW YORK stock market was mixed early this afternoon, with weakness in industrial blue chips dampening some indicators. Gains and losses were about equal. An initial advantage for the plus side was whittled away.

The Dow Jones industrial average at noon was off 2.12 at 943.93. Part of the loss in the Dow industrials was due to the fact that some of its components were selling ex dividend, putting the average down 1.40 at the start. The Associated Press average of 60 stocks at noon was up a minimal .1 at 395.8 with By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Two Israeli jets slammed a rocket barrage into a suspected Arab guerrilla position inside Jordan today, the Israeli army announced. The Israelis said they were sent over, Jordan shortly after an army patrol was fired on near the border settlement of Neve Ur, nine miles south of the Sea of Galilee. For about 15 minutes the jets strafed the desert Jordanian village of Mansi- ya from which the army said the patrol was fired on.

No Israeli casualties were reported. It was the first time Israel has reported a jet attack on Jordan since Jan. 16. The Lebanese-Israeli border also flared briefly when small- arms fire was directed from Lebanon at the Israeli settlement of Zar'it, 12 miles east of the Mediterranean and a few hundred yards from the border, the Israeli army said. An Israeli spokesman said that the Lebanese fire was returned and there were no casualties in the settlement.

In the occupied Gaza Strip, scene of violent rioting Sunday, an explosive charge demolished a small railway bridge near Rafiah. About 100 Arab schoolgirls were injured in the Sirip Sunday -o- -o- -o- when Israeli plice charged with nightsticks to break up a three-hour riot involving 4,000 girls. The girls were protesting the jailing of three Gaza women convicted by an Israeli court of spying and aiding guerrillas. The girls spat, tussled with troops and tore down mud and stone walls outside five schools to throw pieces of them at the soldiers. While Arab men watched quietly, they brandished pictures of Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser and yelled: "Nasser! Ndsser! Israel is black! Palestine! Palestine!" Newsweek magazine reported Nasser has made a six-point proposal for peace with Israel and hinted he might agree to talk directly with the Israelis.

Nasser told the magazine the Arab states would agree to a five-point program if Israel would withdraw from the territory it seized from Jordan, Egypt and Syria in the 1967 war. Nasser offered a declaration of nonbelligerency, freedom of navigation on international waterways, recognition of each Middle East country's right to live in peace, a guarantee of territorial integrity within "recognized and secure borders" and a just solution to the Palestine refugee problem. -o- -o- -o- Nasser's offer followed the lines of the U.N. Security Council's November 1967 resolution on the Middle East. But Israel refuses to give up the Arab chief bargaining it has formal peace agreements with the Arab nations and until it negotiates what it considers "recognized and secure Nasser told Newsweek senior correspondent Arnaud de Borch- grave he would not guarantee to talk directly with Israel if there is withdrawal.

"But I can tell you," he added, "we sat down with the Israelis after the 1948 war under the armistice agreement until the 1956 war, and that we are prepared to do so again." Nasser also said Egypt would restore diplomatic relations with the United States, which Egypt broke during the 1967 War, if Washington expressed disapproval of the Israeli occupation. Time magazine reported Sunday that the Israeli Cabinet has decided to build 30 permanent lortified settlements and three new towns in occupied territory even though this would make settlement with its Arab neighbors more unlikely. CONTROVERSIAL PROF Mrs. Marlene Dixon, University of Chicago sociology professor, is pictured at her house as she explained her three- year teaching contract will not be renewed by the school. Some students conducted a sit -in to try to get the university to rescind the firing.

The plastic material, weighted with sand, was in the form of a big just east of the plat- foim on which oil crews worked to seal off the underground pressure responsible for the leak flowing at 21,000 gallons a day. Other crews were drilling a second hole from a rig 1,000 feet away to reduce the pressure. South of Anacapa Island, heavy oil extended for a half- mile.

A few light slicks drifted to within 100 yards of Capinteria State Park beach south of here, and fingers of oil reached land.

California Fish and Game Department spokesmen said 70 oil-smeared birds had been taken to special centers for treatment and that 47 of these survived.
