Gemayel Calls For Removal Of Foreign Armies
Lebanon's President Amin Gemayel urged the United Nations General Assembly to demand immediate and unconditional withdrawal of all non-Lebanese foreign forces from Lebanon. He linked Middle East peace to a stable Lebanon and urged the U.N. to make peacekeeping more credible while noting Israel’s security zone demand. The speech followed by a U.N. Security Council extension of the peacekeeping mission to January 19, 1983 and set the stage for Gemayel’s talks with President Reagan on forcing Israeli and Syrian forces to depart with PLO withdrawal aligned.

Sheriff Denies Advance Tips On Mercer Jailbreak
Mercer County Sheriff Don Hare denied reports he received three tips before last Wednesday's jail escape. He said checks were made on schedule, the jail's aging condition and poor lighting hinder operations, and that an anonymous tip led to a late warning. The escapees reportedly sawed bars with glue, gum, and a crutch, using improvised methods and a missing night watch.
