South Africa Defies ICJ Ruling on South West Africa
A Pretoria spokesman said South Africa would not quit South West Africa despite the ICJ advisory ruling. Prime Minister Verster called the decision an international political vendetta while the U.N. seeks Security Council steps. The Namibia case stems from the 1966 General Assembly action and 1968 terrorism trial in Pretoria with several life sentences.

Vernon opponents win mixed decision
Conservationists won a split decision as the pre hearing conference resumed on Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Corportation's petition to the Atomic Energy Commission for an operating license. Samuel W. Jensch, AEC Licensing Board chair, sidetracked a 60 day delay request by the New England Coalition on Nuclear Pollution to study the safety report and decided questions should be answered before formal hearings. The coalition sought time to review the Calvert Cliffs case and Vermont Yankee questions, while the plant notes many queries are inapplicable to the $161 million reactor on the Connecticut River in Vernon.

About 75 residents attended Cole Hall as W E Daily Construction proposed a 150 unit mobilehome park on 25 acres off Airport Road. Town meeting June 28 will seek a zoning change from residential to commercial by a two thirds vote.
