Sullivan, 33, was the second woman in history to venture outside a spacecraft into the vacuum of space. SvetlanaSavits kaya of the Soviet Union was the first when she worked outside the orbiting Salyut space station last July. Wearing gleaming white $2 million spacesuits, the two astro nauts began a four-hour excursion during which they would act as plumbers so future shuttle crews can be service station attendants for satellites. They were to test new equipment which will be used by future shuttle crews to refuel orbiting satellites. Sullivan and Leestma, also will work on two types of anten nas which have given Challenger's crew difficulties during this mission, which began last Friday. Spending bill gets final approval WASHINGTON The Senate Thursday gave final approval to a massive omnibus spending bill for 1985 and sent it to President Reagan who has promised to sign it. The politically charged bill had tied lawmakers in knots for weeks and its final passage clears a major hurdle, allowing Congress to go home and campaign for re-election. The Senate approved the measure 78 to 1 1, while the House of Representatives Wednesday night voted it 252 to 60 to approve it. The only objection voiced in minimal floor debate came from conservative Sen. John East, who accused senators who negotiated the bill's final form with the house of abondon ing U.S.-backed rebels in Nicaragua. "If Central America falls under Communist domination the president of the United States can point first to the House of Representatives and then to Senate for acquiescing" the North Carolina Republican said. Mondale calls for farm credit plan WASHINGTON Calling President Reagan's farm policies a disaster, Walter Mondale said Thursday that if elected he would declare an immediate 180-day moratorium on farm foreclosures and act to ease a farm credit crisis. Mondale said he would establish a farm credit management team in each county composed of a local farmer, rural banker and farm management professional to arbitrate between farmers and creditors. The team would have the authority to refinance debt, lower interest rates and stretch out repayment terms. It could also refinance up to maximum $500,000 in Farmers Home Administration loans, and could lower interest rates a maximum of five percentage points. For private farm debt, Mondale said the management team could offer government loan guarantees up to $500,000 refi nancing arrangementsjind interest rate adjustments if invited to do so by both the lender and borrower. Mondale said the program would cost $700 million annually if as much as 10 percent of the total farm debt were involved. Mondale also announced formation of an 88-person agricul tural advisory committee to assist in farm policy. He attacked Reagan's farm policies, saying: "His sudden interest in farm policy just before the election will not fool anyone." Mondale said he would oppose "any" farm trade embargoes such as the 1980 embargo imposed on grain sales to the Soviet Union by former President Carter, when Mondale served as vice presi dent. Reagan lifted that embargo in April 1981. Libel case opens against CBS 1 NEW YORK Gen.WUliam Westmoreland's $120 million libel case against CBS opened Thursday with a battle of video tapes and a charge the network fabricated a 1982 documentary and "ambushed" the retired Vietnam commander. But CBS lawyer David Boies defended the integrity of the network and said it was a "preposterous idea that ( hese people made up this program and then went out to get (witnesses) to go along with it." .At issue is a 90-minute documentary that reported allega tions that Westmoreland and officers of his Vietnam command played down enemy troop strength before the disasterous 1968 Tet offensive to show the U.S. was winning the war. Westmoreland, commander of American forces from 1964 to 1968, claims CBS, its correspondent-narrotor Mike Wallace and two production people smear ed him with accusations that he lied to his civilian superiors, most notably President Lyndon Johnson. The trial, which is expected to last four months, is the most important libel case in the United States in decades. West moreland victory could change the way the press covers public officials. The federal jury of six men and six women Thursday heard a three-hour opening statement from Westmoreland's attorney, Dan Burt, and the first 20 minutes of Boies' presentation. He will speak for another two hours Friday. Burt used a sophisticated video tape machine manned by two technicians in his presentation, showing the jury film from the program and clips that wound ur on the cutting room floor in an effort to prove CBS knowiingly broadcast information it knew was false and acted with reckless disregard for the truth. "I will show you how images are spliced, cut, put together to create reality that never happened," he said.
