authorized a complaint for air piracy against Goodell and recommended $100,000 bail. The Boeing 727-100, originally with with 58 persons aboard including the hijacker, was seized while on a short flight Thursday from Oakland to Sacramento, The plane was ordered 500 miles to San Diego where the hijacker got the money and Northlands Today iZ Sunset Today, Sunrise Tomorrow, PREV. 24 High, 78; Low, 48; YEAR AGO TODAY: High, 80; Low, 43; NORMAL FOR DATE: High, 82; Low, 50; RECORD FOR DATE: High, 92 in 1905; Low, 32 In 1955; .59 In 1911; PRECIP.

On Wednesday FBI agents stormed aboard a PSA jetliner at San Francisco International Airport, killing two hijackers who had demanded $800,000 in ransom and escape to Siberia.

A passenger was shot and killed by one of the hijackers, the FBI said, and two other passengers were wounded. The Oakland air pirate gave up his guns to California Highway Patrol Capt, Lloyd T. Turner, who he held as a hostage on the flight. of the study and will join Dr. Gordon Jacoby, UCLA, in coordinating the hydrology portion.

The social science studies and principal investigators are: Anthropology, Levy; economics, Prof. F. Lee Brown, UNM; law and political science, Prof. Gary Weatherford, UCLA college of law, and Prof. Dean Mann, professor of law at University of California in Santa Barbara.

Mann is one of the nations foremost authorities on water law and is also the author of "The Politics of Water in Arizona." Dr. Priscilla P. Dudley, of the department of geology at Boston College will serve as project executive secretary. The project has been funded since June 1, but scientists involved did not receive formal notice of the grant until early last week, Anderson said. Work has started, he said, and will continue on a "staggered schedule" throughout the summer.

Investigators and consultants will arrive as their schedules permit. Weatherford, for example, will be in Flagstaff sometime around July 15, he said. Goal of the project, Anderson said, is to produce a final report at the end of the two-year period which will coordinate the information gathered in all disciplines. If the project is continued, he said, new disciplines may be added at the end of the first two years and some will likely be dropped. The project also will make use, he explained, of articles in popular scientific journals, regular press releases, and articles in technical scientific journals to make its findings In the various disciplines involved known to the public on a regular basis.

The factor that makes the study "distinctive, Anderson explained, is the involvement of so many varied disciplines. "We literally have doctors, lawyers, and Indian chiefs, he said Thursday. Among the principal beneficiaries of the study, Anderson said, will be the Navajo Tribe, the U.S. Bureau of Re-clamation, the National Park Service, and members of both houses of the Congress. Investigators, Anderson explained, hope to get their findings to these and other sources, including the libraries of universities and colleges, in communicable form, rather than in the tehcnical languages of the various Electrical Workers Ratify New Pact PHOENIX (AP) The Salt River Project said Thursday that electrical workers have ratified a new contract which calls for a 5.5 per cent wage increase.

Brandt Replaces Finance Minister BONN, Germany (AP) Chancellor Willy Brandt today appointed Defense Minister Helmut Schmidt to replace Karl Schiller as economics and finance minister, the government announced.

Once the first showers put moisture into the air and on the ground, it then becomes easier for more clouds to form from evaporation. These clouds then drop more water and the cycle goes on until the isolated showers have built generalized rain blankets, if all works well, Sorenson said. It is these general rain blankets that bring fields of green grass and flowers and put the glossy green back in Northern Arizonas Ponderosa Pine forests.

Economically, the monsoons are important to livestock growers, agriculturists, the lumber industry and to cities relying on runoff for water supplies, he noted. Last year, the state officials approved a $200,000 monthlong cloud seeding project, based in Flagstaff, to help bring rain to break a midsummer drought. No similar action has been taken this year. Sorenson added a warning to the happy prospect of rain though. Heavy storms over The Peaks dousing the cloud factory with cold rains and hail could hinder The Peaks in its usual job of producing cumulous clouds, he said.

The heavy rains and hail on those high areas would act as a damper to formation of rain clouds since the cold would remove the heat necessary for evaporation of groundwater into the air and subsequent cloud formation, he said. In other words, The Peaks would act as a cold sink instead of the normal heat course, Sorenson said. Thursdays showers brought the rainfall total for this year to 2.91 inches, well below the normal total of 7.60 and even behind the 1971 total of 3.4 inches at this time, Sorenson said. Thursdays thunderstorms brought 19 lightning caused fires to the Coconino, especially in the Anderson Mesa and Mormon Lake areas, controllers said. Lightning-caused fires probably will be a major concern on the forest now.

World Archery Champ Sandlin Dead at 44 OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) A young AWOL soldier seized a Pacific Southwest Airlines jetliner for $450,000 ransom, which he said would be given to groups "involved in the Mideast crisis," and ordered the plane 1,000 miles up and down California before surrendering early today to his hostage, a law officer, authorities said. The air pirate, who gave up after the Jetliner landed at Oakland International Airport, was identified by the FBI as Francis Goodell, 21, of Manassas, AWOL two days from the Army. FBI agent-incharge Robert Gebhardt said military cards were found on Goodell, including one from Ft. Riley, Kan.

The entire $450,000 was recovered, the agent said. The hiacker gave a note to the pilot which said the ransom money, obtained from. PSA along with one parachute, "would be given to two organizations involved in the Mideast crisis," a Federal Aviation Administration official said. The note continued: "Recent actions by the Air Line Pilots Association and secretary of transportation have caused consternation in our organization and we are forced to take prompt action. Some ALPA members last month took part in a one-day work stoppage to protest the recent wave of air piracy throughout the world and to demand better security measures.

Mother Enters Guilty Plea in Death of Girl PHOENIX (AP) The mother of a 2-year-old girl allegedly beaten to death March 30 has pleaded guilty to a charge of voluntary manslaughter. Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Robert Myers accepted the plea Thursday from Teresa Ann French, 30, of Phoenix and scheduled sentencing July 28. The mother and Robert Wfl. son, 26, father of the victim, had been charged with murder. Wilson maintained his plea of innocent and remained on trial.

Miss French entered her plea hours after the Arizona Su-preme Court ruled that the Maricopa County medical examiner could testify about injuries inflicted on the child, Dawn French, over a two-month period. The ruling overturned Myers order that the medical examiner, Heinz Karnitschnig, limit his testimony to the blows which allegedly killed the child. Karnitschnig has testified that the case is a classic example of "battered child syndrome. Medical officials said the childs body had numerous bruises, cigarette burns, head injuries and a broken leg. Offices Throughout Arizona FLAGSTAFF HIGHWAY 658 E.

$2 Million Drug Fight Plan Voted WASHINGTON (AP) The White House today announced a major new $2 million intensified effort to produce long-lasting non-addicting chemical compounds for treatment and prevention of heroin addiction. The planners envision the possibility of using such "nar-cotic antagonists to prevent youthful experimenters with heroin from ever becoming addicts. Narcotic antagonists are drugs designed to prevent heroin and other narcotics from reaching the nervous system.

The petitions will be turned over just three hours before the deadline.

Pilots Spokesman Proposes a Boycott WASHINGTON (AP) An officer of the Air Line Pilots Association suggested today that travelers boycott air lines that are unwilling to spend enough money for strong ground security against hijackings.
