Israel Builds First Ski Area On Mount Hermon
Soldiers guard the slopes of Hermon as Israel opens its first ski resort on the Golan heights. Arab guerrillas stay away while thousands ski on crowded weekends. American teachers note unfamiliar techniques as Israelis adapt with improvised plastic bag snowmobiles. The 6,603 foot lift rises over diverse terrain from ice to powder and, since 1967, the Hermon ski club has grown from a wartime post to a popular recreation site.

Defense Dept to study killer satellites feasibility
The Defense Department will study whether a satellite interceptor system can detect intercept and destroy hostile space vehicles. The project follows Soviet tests of space weapons and could lead to competitive studies with several industry bidders. If pursued, subsystem testing could begin next year with a 1975 or 1976 test launch target. The effort notes prior Saint project abort and current aging antisatellite systems.

Underground Istanbul Piracy Feats Free Utilities Across Slums
In Istanbul slums residents bypass utilities by wiring into power lines and tapping into municipal water and gas. Officials issue fines and jail terms, yet piracy thrives amid attacks on inspectors. In Ok meydani, improvised cables surge to main lines, causing shocks and deaths. Water theft via metering tricks and pipe digging is common, while gas tapping by unscrewing stoppers persists. Authorities patrol with mine detectors, yet connections continue as households seek light, heat, and fuel.
