2A THE TIMES HERALD Saturday, August 11, 1973 PORT HURON, MICH. Automakers expected to head price hike review ine for DETROIT (AP) Treasury Secretary George Shultz expects the nation's automakers to be "first in line" when the Cost of Living Council begins reviewing requests for price increases Sept. 12. proposals to Washington for decisions. Auto industry proposals would fall in that category, he added.

Detroit automakers have announced plans to seek substantial increases on 1974 models, but so far only American i ii iii i i i lj 1 i 5 (l 4 i i '4 i Skylab crew sees sun flare; start earth resource survey looping pattern at 700,000 miles an hour. He said that, if the material had been ejected in the earth's direction, it would have caused magnetic storms and interfered with communications around the globe. However, it was propelled in almost the opposite direction. Hildner explained that such events apparently result from sudden changes in the corona's magnetic field. He added that he and other scientists will be anxious to study the film when it is returned to earth in hopes of learning the triggering mechanism.

He said the film should have the best record yet of this phenomenon: Obituaries Ho-hum, just hangin' around Cambodians report danger of capital attack subsides Motors has disclosed the size of its. increase request. AMC said it will seek an average boost of $55 a car. Shultz said he expected to have an answer on the increases within 30 days, but added he wasn't sure the decision would be reached before the bulk of the 1974 models go on sale late in September. Shultz spent a day in the Motor City discussing wage and price controls.

He defined the controls as a way to "insure rising employment with reasonably stable prices." The treasury secretary said the controls are helping discipline the economy and eventually can be removed. Although he said the economy is improving, he did not speculate on a date for the removal of controls. Shultz said shortages which have led to high meat and grain prices were a result of bad luck. "On a world scale, physical supplies fell last year. It was bad luck," he said at a luncheon arranged by General Motors Chairman Richard Gersten-berg.

"It is the common assumption ot governments that agriculture is always in over-supply," he explained. "But governments were caught napping by a bad year for crops. Now everyone is in the process of expanding supplies." Funeral services will be held 11 a.m. Tuesday in the Pollock-Randall Funeral Home. Rev.

E. J. Soell, pastor emeritus of St. John's United Church of Christ, will officiate. Burial will be in Lakeside Cemetery.

Shultz, who chairs the council said it expects to bring key price increase estimated that the total amount of debris ejected from the sun's atmosphere was greater than the entire mass of the earth. But he said it was only a tiny fraction of the sun's mass.

Hildner described it as "a magnificent specimen of its type, truly spectacular." The debris was mostly protons and electrons, he said. Although it was officially their day off, Bean and Garriott rushed to the telescope console to aim cameras and sensors at the phenomenon, which Hildner said occurs only two to four times a year. Garriott, who is a solar physicist, manned an instrument called a white light coronograph, which blocks out the disk of the sun as in an eclipse. This allows the corona, the fiery outer fringe of gaseous matter, to be studied. Hildner said the material was violently expelled from the corona in a Radio plea clue pressed by searchers CHILILI, N.M.

(AP) With a possible new clue, searchers pressed their hunt today for a young boy whose radioed pleas for help have been heard on the citizens band since Tuesday. State police reported late Friday that a Missouri family traveling to Arizona in a vehicle with a citizens band radio was missing. Missouri authorities told New Mexico state police those missing were Marvin A. Fadler, 54; his wife; and his son Larry, 12. They were reported missing by Fad-ler's brother, Floyd.

He told Missouri authorities his brother had left Desoto, Aug. 4 en route to Phoenix and had not been heard from since. He said his brother had a heart condition. The boy whose radioed cries for help have been picked up has identified himself as Larry. He said he is with his dead father in a wrecked pickup truck.

He has provided no other information. State Police Chief Martin Vigil said authorities have received reports that place the source of the radio pleas "in 10 different places at once." "We're doing the best we can under some very trying and vague Circumstances, and we'll stay on it until we have valid reason for increasing or stopping the search altogether." Meanwhile, Richard Damerow of the Civil Air Patrol said the CAP would continue searching through Sunday but "then we have to go on the assumption that without food and water he will be dead if he ever did exist. One question being asked by searchers and other authorities is why have the signals been picked up on both coasts and in Canada while New Mexico operators are getting only a few weak signals. Another is why has the boy been unable to give so little information about himself and his location. A third question searchers are asking is how can batteries in his radio still be functioning after four days of transmissions.

Authorities said batteries normally would have been dead by Thursday with the apparent constant use. Man caught in burglary Beltline Auto Electric, 3203 Lapeer Road, was broken into early today and the suspected burglar was arrested at the scene. Port Huron police made the arrest and turned over the subject, a 20-year-old man, to deputy sheriffs who arrived minutes later. Girl killed in shaft fall DETROIT (AP) A 6-year-old girl was killed Thursday when she fell down an elevator shaft at the Jeffries housing project. Tanya Vann, daughter of Eleazer and Alfreda Vann, was pronounced dead at Ford Hospital.

The girl was playing in the hall when the elevator doors opened. Building residents said there had been problems with the elevator recently, but the door had never opened to the empty shaft. Kingston man died in crash MARLETTE Alick H. Harris, SI, Kingston, was killed early today when the pickup truck he was driving collided with a semi-truck at M-53 and McAlpine Road, six miles north of Marlette, State Police said. Harris was pronounced dead on arrival at Marlette Community Hospital.

He was the 21st person to die on Sanilac County roadways this a statistic which equals the highest number of persons killed in this county during a single year. Police said Harris attempted to negotiate a left turn from M-53 onto McAlpine Road, and drove into the path of the semi-truck driven by James H. Young, 51, Font an Calif. Young and a passenger in the larger truck escaped injury, police said. The accident happened at 3:45 a.m.

Gary, a Sumatran orangutan, assumes a relaxed pose as he watches crowds of noisy, popcorn-eating, baloonclutching visitors pass by his compound in the San Fransisco Zoo. While a younger orangutan scampered around in the hot sun, Gary, over 18 years old and much wiser, rested in the cool shade junction between Route Highway 3, one of the approaches to Phnom Penh. 38 and principal Government counterattacks reportedly have been aided by the onset of heavy monsoon rains that have flooded rebel bunkers and forced them to move back in some places to higher ground. Northwest of here, the command reported government forces smashed rebel attempts to infiltrate troops into the capital. A communique claimed that government troops in the southeast consolidated their hold on Highway 1, newly reopened to the Mekong River base of Neak Luong, 32 miles from Phnom Penh.

But the road still is not open to civilian traffic. Insurgent elements were reported to have withdrawn from the road but still are capable of harassing attacks. The road between the key towns of Tachmau, four miles south of Phnom Penh, and Setbo, 13 miles from the city, also was reported cleared. "These successes safeguard the capital from all danger of attack and harassment by the enemy," the command declared. Col.

Alan L.

Bean, Dr. Owen K. Garriott and Jack R. Lousma will gather geological, air and water pollution, land use and weather data on the midday pass over the western United States, Central America and northern South America. And tonight they'll aim their photosensors at an strip extending from Nepal to Australia.

They'll study such things as weather systems over Indonesia, snow and ice fields in Nepal and agricultural fields, forestry, water systems and land use in Australia and Thailand. Mission control scientists, meanwhile, studied televised pictures of the spectacular eruption that occurred on the sun Friday and was photographed for several hours by the astronauts as it spread its radiation debris into space. Dr. Ernest Hildner of the High Altitude Observatory in Boulder, to break off their assault on Phnom Penh's defense perimeter, at least temporarily. He doubted whether they could resume a full-scale assault until the end of the month at the earliest after the scheduled Aug.15 U.S.

bombing halt. Meanwhile, a convoy of more than 300 trucks and trailers laden with rice and other foodstuffs reached Phnom Penh down Highway 5 from Cambodia's second city of Battambang. The district manager for Air France said today that he had asked the airline to suspend its flights into Phnom Penh for a few days until arrangements could be made to use American navigational equipment and procedures. "The security situation around the city is not the reason for the suspension," he said. There has been confusion because the civilian traffic controllers have been unable to make radio contact with military aircraft due to different radios.

But the airline official said that "the Americans are letting us use their navigational equipment and we are changing our landing procedures." Belfast terrorists gun man down BELFAST, Northern Ireland (AP) A 29-year-old Roman Catholic was killed by terrorists as he walked along a Belfast street with his wife Friday night. His 47-year-old father collapsed and died when informed of the death. Authorities said another man was killed 100 yards inside the Irish Republic when a bomb exploded in his car. Unofficial sources -along the frontier identified the man as an Ulster Catholic suspected of transporting explosives into Northern Ireland for the Irish Republican Army. Police said Mr.

and Mrs. Joseph Murphy were returning home after visiting a friend in the hospital when a car approached them and a gunman opened fire, wounding the husband. As his wife screamed for help, the gunman left the car, stood over the wounded man and fired a bullet into his head. He died two hours later. Police speculated that Murphy's death was in retaliation for the ambush-slaying of a Protestant construction worker Thursday.

PHNOM PENH, Cambodia (AP) Government forces claimed big successes around Phnom Penh's southern defense perimeter today, and the Cambodian command reported the capital was out of immediate danger of attack.

But rebel infiltrators hit the international communications station 10 miles west of here, interrupting radio links with the rest of the world. Reports from the transmission station said a rebel sapper team threw grenades at bunkers guarding the. installation shortly after midnight and other sappers tripped a claymore mine, sparking a two-hour firefight. The Communist-led infiltrators made off before daylight when U.S. F4 Phantoms bombed a known rebel staging area 2y2 miles from where the sappers were reported to have launched their attack.

A communique announced government troops have cleared provincial Route 38, which runs around the outside of Phnom Penh's southern defense line. But according to field reports, troops only have retaken the village of Kompong Tuol, at the western end of the road. Even this is a marked success, for Communist-led forces have been dug in around the village in deep bunkers in considerable strength.
