Arab guerrillas wound
50 in Jerusalem attack
JERUSALEM Three Arab guerrillas hurled
hand grenades and sprayed sub-machine gun
fire in central Jerusalem Monday, wounding
about 50 people before being captured after
store keepers and passers-by drew pistols and
fired back. Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir
vowed Israel would hit back with all severity
"at those who carried out this attack and those
who sent them." The pavements of King George
Street in the Jewish, western sector of the city,
were stained with blood after the attack.
Panic-stricken shoppers caught in the cross
fire dived to the ground. Police said the "terror
ists" were caught after shopkeepers and
passers-by fired back with pistols and that one
had died later of his wounds. Interior Minister
Yosef Burg told reporters police had not estab
lished whether the guerrillas were Palestinians
or pro-Iranian Shi'ite extremists. Eyewitnesses
said one guerrilla managed to pull two hand
grenades from a blue bag and throw them
towards a bus.

in the hallway, Martin told a press conference.
When Gaye's mother, Alberta, intervened, the
father went into another room of his Victorian

shots were fired and the singer was hit twice in
the chest, Martin said. Gaye fell to the floor.

is offering a side of beef with a difference
advertisers can rent space on the back of his
Jersey cows to publicize their products. Fraz
ier Mohawk has dubbed the wrap-around ser
vice "Mediacow Bullboards" and he insists in
his pun-ridden promotional material that the
idea is "not udderly frivolous." .
The first series of 1 2 sides has sold out and

there," he said. Advertisers pay $450 a year for
their side of beef at Mohawk's public education
farm just north of Toronto which is a popular
tourist attraction for local schoolchildren. In
pitching for advertising revenue, Mohawk asked
would-be buyers: "Do readers skim past your
ads? Want to milk your market for all it's
worth? If so, It's time you heard about Media-cow."
