Two Mile Tunnel At Stanford Used In Scientific Studies
Dr. V A Tsarev of the Lebedev Institute visits SLAC Stanford for six months to work with theoretical physicists on high speed electrons. The two mile long copper tube tunnel hosts 114 million dollar facility funded by the Atomic Energy Commission with annual electricity costs around one million dollars. The site faced a 1971 bombing but guards and locks have been added, though officials say the work is purely scientific with no secrecy.

Terrorists Kill Mother In Ireland Shatters Belfast Cease-Fire
Bernadette Hyndman, a 24 year old Catholic mother, was shot dead at her doorstep in Belfast during a three day IRA truce. The killing undermines a fragile cease-fire and follows ongoing sectarian violence in Northern Ireland. An army spokesman said the shot was not fired by British troops. The truce was fragile and eyed by London as Heath's cabinet faced splits over political proposals for Northern Ireland.
