Industrialist Zabala Freed By Basque Kidnappers
Industrialist Lorenzo Zabala Suiaga was released unharmed by Basque separatists ETA in Bilbao after a 24 hour deadline to kill. He was picked up by a truck driver while hitchhiking near his factory, bound but not beaten, and driven to a police station in Durango. The release followed a threat to kill unless 183 dismissed workers were rehired. Zabala, 44, heads a metals firm and is a director at Prezi-Control. He said the captors tried to disorient him by driving in circles before freeing him. Spanish police and CFR agencies searched the area, with reports of conflicting releases near Paris and in Orhandiano to Digiola corroborated by Cifra.

Intelsat 4 second payload ready for service
The third satellite of the Eight satellites in the Intelsat 4 series weighs 3110 pounds and can handle up to 7000 simultaneous calls or 12 color TV programs. After checkout, it will enter commercial service with circuits reserved for the Quinter Olympics and the President's visit to Red China in February.
