The number of men involved in the raid was not made public. The area hit by the raiders is a boulder-strewn plain bounded by high escarpments on the eastern side. Heavy trucks and half tracks churned a sea of mud after a day of rain.

After a series of air strikes on the area Tuesday, Israeli forces reportedly including 40 tanks, moved into Jordan under cover of darkness. The Al Fatah communique said the raiders clashed first with Saudi Arabian troops stationed near the villages of Fifa and Safl, just across the border from the biblical town of Sodom. Suspected Hideouts Blown Up Arab guerrillas joined the fight as the Israelis, supported by jets, occupied the two villages, blowing up suspected guerrilla hideouts. Jordanian artillery opened up from emplacements on rugged escarpments overlooking the Dead Sea and fighting went on throughout the night. Palestine guerrilla officials reported hand-to-hand fighting in Safi as the Israelis began pulling back early Wednesday.

By The Associated Press Israeli armored raiders, in their longest foray into Jordan since the 1967 war, battled Arab guerrilla and army forces for 21 hours before pulling back Wednesday across the cease-fire line. Sweat-soaked Israelis whooped with delight and relief as they rumbled back across the border laden with bazookas, Kalatchnikov automatic rifles, and other booty seized from the Jordanians. Seven Arabs Said Killed A Jordanian military spokesman said a Jordanian army officer and six Palestinian guerrillas were killed and nine Jordanian soldiers wounded in the fighting in the desert south of the Dead Sea. A Jordanian spokesman said the Israelis were forced to pull back under incessant hammering from Arab artillery, but left little behind in the field. He estimated, however, that losses in men and material on the Israeli side were "very heavy." Helicopters and ambulances were seen shuttling up to the fighting line evacuating Israeli casualties, he added.

An Israeli announcement said the attackers suffered no casualties. Moving back to the Israeli side of the border, the raiders staged a rendezvous near the frontier. Tanks, half-tracks jeeps and trucks assembled beneath towering sandstone cliffs at a desolate compound. Amman announced that three Jordanian army vehicles and a number of houses were blown up by the Israelis. Al Fatah, the guerrilla organization, claimed that its men killed two of the raiders and destroyed two Israeli tanks.

An Al Fatah communique from Damascus said Saudi Arabian forces stationed in the area joined Arab guerrillas and Jordanian army units in battling the Israelis. King Directs Fighting Amman radio said Jordan's King Hussein went to the scene and personally directed the fighting against the raiders. "He returned to Amman confident that Jordanian forces were in full control of the situation," said the broadcast.

iw: 7 i Jf i --t ,1 Tti i I Cleveland UP) The FBI announced that three men were being held in Cleveland Wednesday on charges of violating federal laws in connection with the slayings of United Mine Workers union leader Joseph A. Yablonski and his wife and daughter. FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover identified the three men as Paul Eugene Gilly, 37, a suburban East Cleveland housepainter; Aubran Wayne "Buddy" Martin, 23, a Cleveland laborer, and Claude Edward Vealey, 26, a resident of the Cleveland area. In a statement issued simultaneously in Washington and Cleveland, Hoover said Gilly and Vealey were arrested Wednesday and Martin already had been confined to the Cleveland workhouse on charges of resisting arrest and burglary.

Unsuccessful Candidate The blood-splattered bodies of Yablonski, who unsuccessfully ran for president of the mine workers union last month, and his wife were found in an upstairs bedroom of their Clarksville, home 35 miles south of Pittsburgh Jan. 5. The body of their 25-year-old daughter, Charlotte Joanne, was found in an adjoining room. Yablonski had been shot five times, his wife and daughter twice each. The FBI did not say whether the three men charged were members of the mine workers union, whose election last month was one of the bitterest in the history of the U.S.

labor movement. But union spokesmen in Washington said in a statement they were "most happy to learn that they apparently have no connection with the UMW." Hoover said three charges, each a felony, were filed against Gilly, Vealey and Martin. The charges were: interfering with the rights of union members by force or violence, conspiring to interfere with the rights of union members by force or violence and obstruction of justice. Convicted Felon In addition, Vealey, a convicted felon, was charged with violating the federal firearms act by transporting firearms across state lines. J.

kstmij was sentenced to 55 days for a traffic violation and for resisting and abusing an officer. He has an arrest record dating back to July 25, 1968, when he was fined $25 on a disorderly conduct charge. He also has been arrested on burglary and larceny charges. Gilly has no previous record. Gun Said Found The FBI declined to give additional details, but the Cleveland Plain Dealer said it had learned that a gun believed linked to the Yablonski slayings had been found in the Cleveland area.

Local agents gained possession 'of the gun last week and sent it to Washington for testing, the newspaper said, and another gun was being sought in the same section of Ohio. Hoover's statement said Yablonski, 59, his wife, Margaret, 57, and daughter apparently had been dead since Dec. 31. "Reportedly Yablonski had been stalked and his residence cased on several occasions prior to the commission of the crime during the early morning hours of New Year's Eve," Hoover said. Entry Forced' "Forcible entry was made into the Yablonski home, telephone wires were cut, and an automobile on the property was disabled.

"A dog on the premises presumably did not alert the family to the activities of the intruders who had apparently removed their shoes and at. tacked the victims in the dark." From his home in Washington, Yablonski's son, Kenneth who discovered the bodies said he was "glad" to hear of the arrests. "Our whole family has been living in a state of fear since Jan. 5."

The 13th and St structure was the third YMCA building in Lincoln, according to Dr. John Fuhrer who has compiled a history of the organization. The present building was financed with $105,355 from subscriptions and dedicated June 4, 1911, with William Jennings Bryan delivering the dedicatory address, Fuhrer said. The first YMCA building was constructed at 13th and in 1889-1892, but lost when mortgages on the structure were foreclosed during the depression of the late 1890's. The building became the Free Press Building and is now called the Chapin Building.

The YMCA moved to the old Halter Building at 13th and where the Stuart Building was later constructed, Fuhrer said. Dr. B. L. Paine, a partner of Miller and Paine, gave the YMCA several lots across the street from the Halter Building and a temporary building was dedicated in 1906.

The $165,000 from the sale of the building will be added to the YMCA building budget for financing the remodeling of the Capital Hotel and construction of new athletic facilities adjacent to the hotel. The old YMCA building at 210 No. 13th was sold Jan. 1, 1970, to the Community Development Co. for $165,000, it was announced Wednesday.

There are "no definite plans" for using the building which is being leased back to the YMCA until the new facilities under construction at 11th and Sts. are completed, reported John M. Campbell, head of the Community Development Co. Campbell said that the firm would prefer to have the building used, rather than razing the structure for a parking lot. The 60-year-old building was on the market two years before the YMCA boards of trustees and directors accepted the Community Development Co.

Rafferty Urges Letting Students Judge Teachers Sacramento, Calif. (UPI) Dr. Max Rafferty, state superintendent of public instruction, has advocated a system of merit pay increases for teachers rather than automatic raises. He says it's simple to tell how good a teacher is. "I could tell in 10 minutes by just asking the first 10 kids I met in a school." He added that rarely are the most popular teachers considered the best by the students.

Demo Unit Plans TV Rebuttal Washington OR House Democrats, criticizing President Nixon's fiscal policies, announced plans Wednesday to stage a televised rebuttal to the President's 'State of the Union message. The House Democratic caucus approved a resolution describing Nixon's anti-inflation effort as a high-interest, tight-money policy "crushing the housing market, blocking school construction, water and sewage facilities and the revitalization of our urban and rural communities, and creating unemployment and inflation." The resolution called for appropriate House committees chaired by Democrats, "in lieu of leadership from the executive branch, to draft a specific program to combat high interest rates and to bring about a more equitable and effective monetary policy for the nation." Caucus Chairman Dan Rostenkowski, said the Democrats plan to reply some time in February to Nixon's State of the Union message Thursday, and will ask the major television networks to carry their rebuttal. Whitted said marijuana, most of it wrapped in cellophane packages was found in Smith's car and at his place of business as well as at the rented home. Sarpy county deputies waited in cars and trucks around the Tara Plaza shopping Center for nearly two hours before the sale took place. Whitted said the helicopter was employed because it was not known if the seller would flee.

Adams said he has asked the sheriff to obtain a laboratory analysis to determine whether the marijuana had been grown locally or was shipped in. Sarpy County has been a focal point for marijuana harvesters the last two summers, and a number have been arrested. Papillion UP) A cache of marijuana, possibly worth as much as $100,000 has been found in the basement of an eastern Sarpy County house, Sheriff Richard Whitted reported Wednesday. The marijuana was found after Jack Smith, 38, the tenant, was arrested Tuesday night for an alleged marijuana sale at a shopping center. While Whitted hovered overhead in a rented helicopter an undercover agent purchased a package containing one kilo or 2.2 pounds of marijuana for $100.

Sarpy County Attorney Dixon Adams said Smith has been charged with possessing marijuana with intent to sell it. Smith is operator of a truck repair business in Papillion.

Reichenberg appeared in court neatly attired in a gray striped suit with a moustache that dipped slightly below the edges of his mouth, sideburns slightly below the ear lobe and hair that just touched the collar of his coat. Van Pelt said he would rule Thursday or Friday on whether to restrain the college's refusal to register Reichenberg.

To Study Opinion The judge said that, before issuing an order, he wants first to study an opinion handed down Monday by Federal Judge William C. Hansen of Des Moines in a case involving a public school student. In that suit, Hansen ruled unconstitutional a school district's regulation limiting the length of students' hair. 2 Hour Special Thurs. 10 to 12.

Adv. By KEN NEUNDORF Star Staff Writer A 24-year-old Chadron State College student who said he was barred from registering at the school because of the length of his hair and moustache asked U.S. District Court Judge Robert Van Pelt Wednesday to prevent the college's action. Robert Reichenberg Jr. of Chadron, a sophomore political science major, asked Van Pelt for a restraining order against a "clarification" of the school's dress code made by Dr.

Edwin Nelson, president of the college. Reichenberg contends the clarification is "overbroad" and that in effect it would permit moustaches like the one worn by Adolf Hitler while prohibiting' ones like Mark Twain's. Clarification According to documents introduced by Reichenberg's Nelson's clarification stated: "Male students will wear their hair short enough that eye brows, ears and collars are in full view. Sideburns will be no lower than the ear lobe and moustaches will be trimmed even with the mouth." 1 His attorneys claim the school the issue at stake is whether "state authorify can be exercised without any rational basis." 'Subject To Change' "Hair styles are subject to change from time to time and it's obvious that we're in a period where they're changing now, though there seems to be some resistance to it," Rudolph said. Rudolph, a law professor at the University of Nebraska, said a third of his freshman students would have to be expelled if the Chadron president's "clarification" were in effect at NU.

The petition alleges that by refusing to register Reichenberg Tuesday, the college deprived him of rights under the First, Fifth, Ninth and 14th amendments to the Constitution. Reichenberg entered Chadron State last fall after serving three years in the Army in Germany. Before that he attended the University of Wyoming for two years.
