Israel says Syria deploys SA-2 missiles near Lebanon border
Israeli commander Moshe Levy says Syria has placed SA-2 surface to air missiles at three border points in recent weeks, with range up to 30 miles that could threaten patrols over Lebanon. Prime Minister Peres warns for status quo and avoids escalation, while Abba Eban calls tension high but not a crisis. Syria previously moved SA-6 and SA-8 missiles into Lebanon's Bekaa Valley after a Nov. 19 air downing, then withdrew them.

Alleged Heims murder weapon tied to old Hamilton rifle
Legal proceedings focus on a Hamilton .22 caliber single shot rifle as the possible murder weapon in Joni Helms's death. Bradley Yahnke, 19, faces murder charges with a retrial planned after a hung jury, and state ballistics expert Robert Harvey links a chest shot to the Hamilton. The weapon era dates to early 1900s youth guns and is central to the case.
