Abdul Khaalis denied any knowledge of such negotiations. Revenge for the brutal 1973 murders of seven Hanafis, six of whom were Abdul Khaalis' children, appeared to be the principal, motive for the sudden invasion of the three buildings late Wednesday morning. Five Philadelphia Black Muslims were convicted of the 1973 slayings and each was sentenced to 140 years in prison. In telephone conversations with newsmen, Abdul Khaalis blamed Black Muslim leaders, including heavyweight boxing champion Muhammad Ali, for the slayings of his children and demanded that authorities turn the Muslims over to him. In addition to Ali, he listed as Muslim leaders Wallace D.

Muhammad, now head of the movement; his brother, Herbert Muhammad, and former Philadelphia Muslim leader Jeremiah Muslim Shabazz. Other demands made by Abdul Khaalis during the telephone conversations were: That authorities turn over those responsible for the slaying of his children. He named heavyweight champion Muhammad Ali, Muslim leader Wallace D. Muhammad, his brother Herbert Muhammad and former Philadelphia Muslim leader Jeremiah Muslim Shabazz. That authorities turn over the murderers of Malcolm who like Khaalis was a member City Log FIRE CALLS The Greenwood Fire Department answered the following calls: West Byrd Street.

THE FARMER TONITE 7:00 8:40 auto TtZATRE of the Black Muslims before breaking with them. The return of a $750 fine assessed against him for shouting at the Muslim defendants during their trial for the 1973 Hanafi murders. Police returned the money Wednesday night. A halt to the screening of the movie "Muhammad, Messenger of God," which was scheduled for its American premiere on Wednesday in New York and Los Angeles. The distributor immediately stopped the film in mid-screening after learning of Abdul Khaalis' demand.

Abdul Khaalis said the film was "a fairy tale" that demeaned and distorted the Islamic faith, although few other Moslems have objected to it. In Chicago, Wallace Muhammad denied responsibility for the 1973 Hanafi slayings and said he deplored Wednesday's violence. Four to six gunmen, including Khaalis, stormed the B'nai B'rith headquarters around 11 a.m., wounding eight persons and herding 100 or; more hostages onto the top floor of the eight-story building. Police said 43 persons either were released or escaped the terrorists by hiding. Of "the wounded, two were hospitalized overnight, three were treated and released, and three still were being held by the terrorists.

The condition of the wounded hostages was not known. An hour after the first invasion, up to three more gunmen took the Islamic Center on Embassy Row, apparently without violence or injury. They retained 14 hostages, including center director Dr. Abdul Rauf, the city's highest-ranking Moslem. One of the gunmen told a reporter by telephone that their actions were coordinated with Khaalis' group, and that "heads will roll" unless demands are met.

At 2:30 in the afternoon two more gunmen opened fire on the fifth floor of the District Building, where Mayor Walter Washington and the city council were ut work. They killed Maurice Williams, 24, an employe of WHUR-FM. City Councilman Marion Barry was wounded in the chest by a ricochet bullet, and two security guards were wounded, one critically. A fourth man, identified only as a building guard, lay motionless for hours under the guns of the invaders and was thought to be dead, but rescuers found him alive when they evacuated him. His condition was not knoan.

President Carter ordered the FBI onto the case in midaf-ternoon, and director Garence Kelley and Atty. Gen. Griffin Bell shuttled to and from police headquarters during the night. Police said all three groups appeared to be in communication by telephone, although they could not say with certainty that the city hall group was related to the others. However, the city ball gunmen made no independent demands.

Abdul Khaalis told reporters that the city hall gunmen were part of his group. Carl Crain SPARTANBURG Carl P. Crain, 60, of Rt. 1, Moore, husband of Willie O'Shields Crain, died Monday.

He told an Associated Press reporter, "Don't worry, when the heads start dropping out the window, then you worry." Abdul Khaalis described himself as the leader of the Hanafi Moslems. His son-in-law, Abdul Aziz, was contacted in the northwest Washington headquarters of the Hanafi Moslems where the murders took place four years ago.

Abdul Aziz told reporters that if the demands of the terrorists were not met, "heads will be chopped off. A killing room will be set up at B'nai B'rith and heads will be thrown out of windows."
