Soviet Union reports record 1976 grain harvest

Moscow The Agriculture Minister Valentin Mesyais announced a record 223.8 million metric tons of grain harvested in 1976 and said the plan is to lift average annual grain output to 235 million tons by 1980. He noted the USSR will meet its overseas grain commitments, including a six million ton minimum annual purchase from the United States, a target already exceeded in 1976. The 1976 figure surpassed the 222.5 million ton 1974 record but followed a disastrous 140 million ton 1976 low in earlier years. U.S. officials say the six million ton minimum was signed in 1975 for five years. Bell added the Russians had bought 6.6 million tons of American wheat and corn from the 1976 crop with no immediate plans to buy more. Mesyais cautioned that weather could affect final output.

Hope Dims for Grand Zenith tanker missing crew

Coast Guard officials said chances the Grand Zenith with 38 crew and 8 million gallons of oil remains afloat are dwindling. Seven aircraft and a US cutter scoured 100000 square miles of the North Atlantic as the search expanded east and southeast from Nova Scotia to Rhode Island.
