1972 Z'r- Kremlins chief sets U.S. visit RAMONA Sheriffs deputies are continuing an investigation into the death of a man whose body was unearthed Sunday in the Black Canyon area near the Black Canyon campgrounds. The body, believed to be that of a man about 25 to 35 years of age, was discovered by a Riverside family while they were hunting for rocks about 6 p.m. Deputy Coroner Warren Chambers said the cause of death has not been determined officially, but added sheriffs deputies found a noose with a square knot of white cotton rope around the mans neck and numerous skull fractures above the left eye. Chambers said that the body was in such a decomposed condition that it is difficult to determine if the man had been strangled.

The victim, deputies said, was clothed in white denim bell bottom trousers and a white knit undershirt. He was wearing a black imitation leather windbreaker. He was described as having long, auburn hair, was wrapped in four blankets and a dark green plastic cloth. Deputies said it is not known whether the victim died of strangulation or head injuries. although details are yet to be worked out.

They said that an official announcement of the visit would most likely be withheld until after the election. The Russians, on the basis of diplomatic protocol, would not ordinarily announce a specific plan for a visit of this type in advance of a forthcoming U.S. presidential election. If Sen. George S.

McGovern, contrary to indications of current polls, should beat Nixon, it would be necessary for him to extend a new invitation to the Russians. It is assumed that should he win, McGovern would want to re-extend an invitation but it would be necessary to go through the proper protocol. Brezhn.ev is one of the least traveled of Moscow leaders outside the Soviet bloc. His only previous international visit was a trip to Paris last fall. Kosygin was in the United States in June, 1967, to attend the United Nations General Assembly and while in the country, he held two meetings with President Lyndon B.

Johnson at Glassboro, N.J. Johnson subsequently arranged to visit Moscow during the fall of 1968, where he intended to begin negotiations with the Russians on the limitation and possible reduction of strategic nuclear arms. However, in August, 1968, just before the White House had planned to disclose the Johnson visit, the President canceled the trip because of the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia. WASHINGTON (UPI) -Soviet Communist party chief Leonid I. Brezhnev will make an official visit to Washington next spring, diplomatic sources said today.

They said that this was agreed on during meetings at the White House and at Camp David Monday between President Nixon and Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei A. Gromyko. The Soviet leader probably will come here in April but the sources declined to pinpoint the exact time. During his historic visit to Moscow last May, Nixon extended an invitation to Brezhnev, Soviet President Nikolai V. Podgorny and Premier Alexei I.

Kosygin to come to the United States. The invitation was announced at the time. Nixons close adviser, Henry A. Kissinger, told newsmen in Moscow then that the visit would not take place until after the U.S. presidential election Nov.

7. Soviet officials said then that all three men could not make the trip but indicated Brezhnev, who has emerged over the past year as the dominant member of the trio, probably would be the one to make the pilgrimage to America. Since that time it had been generally speculated that the visit would take place some time early in 1973, assuming Nixons re-election. Diplomats said during their talks, Nixon and Gromyko nailed down plans for the visit PC board to meet with public Who over the hill?

Voting for queen Notes from today Disputed plane back in combat SAIGON (UPI) The Pentagon disclosed today that controversial Fill fighter-bombers had returned to combat after a lapse of five days and indicated they had taken part in new strikes against North Vietnam. However the U.S. Command said strikes against.the north were curtailed Tuesday by Typhoon Lorna. Both the U.S.

Command and the Pentagon denied Tuesday that the swingwing fighter had been grounded because one of the $15 million planes was lost last Thursday night when they returned to Indochina after an absence of four years. Today the Pentagon said they had flown only non-combat missions for the past five days. It was disclosed that the lost Fill was flying through a sky filled with thunderstorms when it disappeared from radar screens shortly after passing Udorn Air Base in Thailand, its last checkpoint before the run across Laos into North Vietnam. Ban on shellfish lifted WASHINGTON (UPI) The government today declared an end to the red tide emergency which had forced a ban on shellfish harvesting in Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) said an organism which caused the tide and resulting contamination a toxic form of algae had died off.

It said shellfish from the affected areas were now safe. It also said reports from across the country indicated that all known shellfish dealers have been contacted and contaminated lots of clams and mussels have been removed from commercial channels. Shellfish from the affected areas now moving in interstate commerce are safe, the FDA said. The FDA originally declared the emergency Sept. 4 and an unknown amount of shellfish were taken off the market in the weeks that followed.

The algae is known as a red tide because it forms in massive amounts in tidelands, turning the water brownish red because of its color. SD seeking GOP refund SAN DIEGO (AP) The City Council has agreed to seek $212,770 from the federal government to repay costs of preparing for the Republican convention. If the request is approved by the federal law enforcement assistance administration, it would pay all but $91,235 of the citys expenses for the convention, which was originally scheduled for San Diego, then moved to Miami Beach. City officials, including Mayor Pete Wilson, have said the money wasnt wasted because of emergency training it provided for city workers. The council rejected Councilman Floyd Morrows suggestion Tuesday that it sue the Republican party for the rest of the money.

Rail pension hike vetoed WASHINGTON (UPI) -President Nixon today vetoed legislation which would have provided a 20 per cent increase in benefits for retired railroad workers. In a statement announcing the action, the President said there was inadequate financing for the increase and that it wouldjeopardize the fiscal integrity of the railroad retirement system and hasten its bankruptcy. Bank official shot in SD LA JOLLA AP) A bank branch supervisor was in satisfactory condition today after being shot by two would-be bank robbers who fled without taking any money, police said. Officers said two well dressed men entered the Security Pacific Bank Tuesday, and one walked to a window where branch supervisor Fred Haugh, 54, of La Jolla, was working as a teller. The man demanded all the $50 and $100 bills and said he had a gun, police said.

Witnesses told officers Haugh reached down to get the money and the man shot him in the chest with a revolver. The two men then told two other employes in the bank to lie on the floor, officers said. Then the men fled into the street. Fliers lost off Okinawa TOKYO (AP) A U.S. Air Force fighter crashed into the sea off northeastern Okinawa Tuesday night and U.S.

officials said its two crewmen were still missing today. They said bad weather and rough seas around the crash site, 40 miles north of Kadena Air Base, were hampering rescue operations. The U.S. military identified the crewmen as Capt. John G.

Strobl, 25, of Cincinnati, Ohio, the pilot, and Capt. John C. Kozuch, 29, of Denton, the navigator. 3rd-largest diamond sold FREETOWN, Sierra Leone (AP) President Siakka Stevens said Tuesday his government has sold a New York firm the 968.9 carat Star of Sierra Leone, the third largest diamond ever discovered.

SAN MARCOS Palomar College trustees will hold five meetings with the public during the present school year in areas from which the college draws its students. The idea to take the board to the community was recommended by a citizens committee several months ago. It was believed this would give an opportunity to many persons to attend a meeting who might not be able to travel to San Marcos, where the board normally meets on the PC campus. The meetings will not be official board meetings, but will be informal discussions of issues important to the various communities. The first in the series of meetings is scheduled Oct.

17 at 7:30 p.m. in the Fallbrook High School cafeteria. Dates and communities for other meetings are Nov. 21 in Vista, Jan. 30 in Poway-Rancho Bernardo, April 17 in Escondido and May 29 in Ramona.

Meeting places will be announced.

They include Corinne Jennings, 17; Jennifer McCurdy, 17; and Sherry Shepherd, 18, all seniors; Teresa Rivera, 16, and Ruthann Richardson, 16, both juniors, who will serve as princesses. Only the senior girls will be in competition for the queen title. Balloting for the queen takes place Thursday at the high school with about 200 students eligible to cast votes. Men and women in the community have been busy making entries for the apple concoction contest.

The melodrama, under the direction of Patsy MacFarlane, is scheduled for a performance Friday night at the Town Hall and for two performances each day, Saturday and Sunday.

Under her leadership a full schedule of events for the three days has been completed to include pancake breakfasts, a spaghetti dinner, pit barbecue, horse and music contests.

About 10,000 people are expected to invade the little community in the mountains both Saturday and Sunday, according estimates by committee people preparing for the invasion.

The music contests are Saturday and the horse show Sunday. A spaghetti dinner is scheduled for Saturday at St. Elizabeths Catholic Church.

the time retired at mealtimes to a back room where I saw them once, tucking into a meal of boiled rice and thin fish soup. I felt embarrassed for our gargantuan appetites. When I confessed my guilt to an Indian diplomat from the International Control Commisson standing languidly at the bar, he told me, The Vietnamese can get along on virtually nothing, minimum food, minimum clothing. That is the secret of their ability to wage war despite great hardship. The tension of war, and the austerity, prematurely aged the Vietnamese.

One of our interpreters, a pretty girl called Lien with long plaited tresses down to her waist, said she was 22, b(it her facial bones were stretching her skin like that of an old woman. Lien said she was practicing the three delays: delay love, delay marriage, delay babies. That is the slogan the North Vietnamese use to keep the female work force at full strength, and it seems to be working. Women were carrying rifles, digging mud to fill shell holes, working in the fields. The drama of travelling behind the North Vietnamese lines was paralleled by the unusual nature of the visit escorting home the three pilots, the first to be released since 1969.

Add a mother and a wife to the party, stir in well-publicized Pentagon opposition to the whole venture, and the stuff of mystery and intrigue is made. Cont. From Page A-l the pilots at hamlets along the way I felt that the North Vietnamese sense of forgiveness knew no bounds, until I discovered that everyone thought we were Russian technicians. If the sense of forgiveness was naturally enough restrained, the sense of hospitality was not. The food was sumptuous.

Three-egg breakfasts served with Hanoi-canned pineapple juice, black bread and coffee from the highlands began each day. Three meat courses came each lunch. Dinner at night in the once-ornate but now faded dining room of the Hoa Binh Hotel was usually more of the same French cuisine, or a Vietnamese banquet of a dozen courses. And this in a country that allows each person only a little more than an ounce of meat a day. It was this avalanche of food that seemed to finally convince the three pilots that they were free.

I used to dream that when I got out I would eat meat until I was stuffed with it. That would be true freedom, said Gartley. He had an opportunity to do that every meal. And Elias, the only one of the three not met by a relative in Hanoi, noticeably relaxed as the week went by and the dinner table groaned under quiche lorraine, sole amandine and crepes suzette. The bevy of Vietnamese interpreters, guides and police agents who pressed constant attendance on everyone most of Hit -run suspect to be arraigned ESCONDIDO Kenneth Neil Miller, 26, of Chula Vista will be arraigned Oct.

11 in Municipal Court on two felony charges alleging hit-and-run driving in the death of Renie Viola Chapil, 80, as she was crossing Broadway near Park Place Saturday about 9 42 p.m. Miller was arrested by city police shortly after the accident. He posted $5,000 bond pending his arraignment. Club to meet ESCONDIDO The North County group of the Sierra Club will hold an informational meeting on Prop. 20, the coastline initiative, at 7:30 tonight in the Escondido High School library.

Guests will speak for and against the measure. Resolution marks Newspaper Week Press roasted, hailed by county SAN DIEGO (UPI) County supervisors roasted and praised the press in a mock resolution read and unanimously rejected Tuesday. The occasion was in recognition of Newspaper Week, Oct. 8-14. Adoption of a more dignified resolution followed but it was dull in comparison.

The rejected resolution read as follows: Whereas newspaper week' has been observed since 1939; and Whereas newspaper reporters have been keeping a watchful eye on government activities since there has been a government of the United States of America; and Whereas reporters of the county beat snoop, pry, dig, solicit, examine, threaten, cajole, wrangel, bluff, charm, outwit, bamboozle, discover, uncover, expose, disclose and find out; and Whereas these same county beat reporters are prone to enlighten, inform, divulge, tell, impart, disclose, communicate, disseminate and reveal the bad as well as the good side of the issues and Whereas every newspaper reporter at some time or another should be flogged, drawn and quartered, tarred and feathered, hanged from the nearest yardarm, shot on sight, sent back to where he came from, horsewhipped, boiled in oil and run out of town on a rail; and Whereas every newspaper reporter should also be wined, dined, honored, glorified, praised, lauded, applauded, exalted, defended, pampered and flattered; and Whereas the county of San Diego is blessed and plagued with the best of the lot and the worst of the lot, depending upon what they have most recently written: Now therefore, the board tucks its collective tongue in cheek and salutes li.e county press corps. 4.
