Bomb threat...
Cor.tb.acd Crora Pag 1
Hesser said no bomb was found
but sheriffs deputies were placed
at the two main exits and all
other exits were closed off.
Lincoln Mayor Roland Luedtke,
who was in the building at the
time of the incident, praised she
riffs deputies and Lincoln police
involved in the evacuation. He
said adjustments made in the
building's internal system and
surveillance "proved highly suc
cessful" Luedtke said last week's bomb
threat resulted in a "beefing up"
of the buildings evacuation pro
cedures. He declined to give details
of the new procedures but said
city officials were to meet Mon
day afternoon in a closed session
to determine the better methods
of informing the building's occu
pants of such an emergency.
Last week former Lincoln resi
dent Joe Eastman, 4 1 , apparently
upset over his recent divorce set
tlement, threatened to detonate
what he said was a bomb in the
building. The "bomb" turned out
to be a clock radio. Sheriff's depu
ties took Eastman into custody
and later transferred him to the
Lincoln Regional Center.

Sebslo report oucceeo
after failed peace tollm
SAN SALVADOR, El Salvador - Left-wing Salvadoran guer
rillas said Monday they killed 60 government troops and
wounded more than 40 in an ambush Sunday, two days after
peace talks with the U.S.-backed government ended in dis
agreement. The rebels' Radio Venceremos called the operation
"Peace with Sovereignty and Justice," a reference to insurgent
demands at the peace talks Friday in Ayagu alo for an end to all
U.S. involvement in El Salvador, political reforms and a role in
government.
that the guerrillas lay down their arms and join in elections.
Each side later accused the other of trying to sabotage the talks
with impossible demands.
The guerrillas also announced their third traffic ban in six
weeks Monday, forbidding movement of all vehicles on roads in
eastern El Salvador as part of a campaign to sabotage crops
now being harvested. In the past they have enforced the ban by
burning vehicles. Security officials said guerrillas machine
gunned a bus near San Jose Guayabal, 15 miles northeast of
here, Sunday, killing three civilians and wounding 20.
Friday's meeting was only the second between the two sides
and failed to produce any significant breakthrough toward
ending the war. The two sides agreed to hold another meeting
at an unspecified time and place and to allow the free move
ment of civilians and vehicles during the Christmas period
from Dec. 22 to Jan. 3, 1985.
O'Neill retains speaker position
WASHINGTON Democrats Monday again chose Rep.
Thomas Tip" O'Neill of Massachusetts as House Speaker after a
Texas conservative decided not to challenge him. House
Republicans picked Rep. Bob Michel of Illinois as their leader
for the new 99th Congress starting Jan. 3, 1985. O'Neill and
Michel will be elected formally next month. O'Neill, a liberal
pictured by Republicans as a symbol of big-spending Demo
crats, will turn 72 Sunday. He plans to quit Congress in two
years. Texas Democrat Charles Stenholm told a news confer
ence he pulled out of the race after getting O'Neill's promise
that conservatives will have a bigger say in party affairs.
Boatlifted Cubans to be citizens
MIAMI Thousands of Cubans who came to the United
States in the 1980 Mariel boatlift lined up at registration cen
ters Monday to begin the process of becoming American citi
zens. The Reagan administration announced last month that
"Marielitos" would be allowed to apply for permanent resident
status and then citizenship, ending the limbo status of "entrant"
they have had since their arrival.
An estimated 125,000 Cubans reached Florida from Mariel,
near Havana, after Cuban President Fidel Castro said all who
wanted to leave could do so. But Cuban-Americans who made ,
the risky journey across the Florida Strait to pick up relatives
found that in many cases, they were also forced to transport
"undesirables," including convicted criminals, prostitutes and
mental patients. U.S. officials say refugees who committed
serious crimes in their homeland or after they reached the
United States will be screened out of the registration process.
When the refugees attain resident status, they will be eligible
to invite spouses and unmarried children to join them. As
citizens, they also will be able to bring in parents, brothers and
sisters. U.S. officials say this could ultimately mean a new
Cuban influx of up to 300,000 people.
Poison gas leak kills hundreds
NEW DELHI, India A chemical death cloud leaking from a
Union Carbide pesticide plant killed at least 335 people in
central India Monday and triggered a middle-of-the-night
stampede by thousands t o under-equipped hospitals. Doctors
in the city of Bhopal said the dead included many young child
ren and elderly people with weak hearts and that the death toll
could surpass 600.
In Danbury, Conn., Union Carbide officials were at a loss to
explain the accident, which could be the worst industrial
catastrophe in history.
Teachers strike Chicago schools
CHICAGO Public school teachers went on strike in Chi
cago Monday in a contract dispute, closing the country's third
largest public school system and giving 430,000 students an
unexpected holiday. The 28,000 teachers, who have been work
ing without a contract since the school year began, were joined
on the picket line by 18,000 janitors and other support person
nel representing 17 other unions. The teachers are said to be
seeking a 9 percent pay raise. The Chicago Board of Education
has been demanding a shorter work year, in effect a pay cut,
and a reduction in health benefits.

billed as the biggest wedding in history. About 40,000 guests,
