SAIGON (AP) — Waves ofAmerica's biggest b o m b e r slaunched one of the most con-centrated saturation attacks ofthe war Friday against NorthVietnamese troops reportedly in-filtrating from Laos into thecenter of South Vietnam,

The stepped up air campaignwas aimed at stopping a pos-sible major thrust across theheart of South Vietnam.In 10 missions over the last'

21 hours, at least 30 Air ForceB52 bombers rained explosivesalong sanctuaries near the bor-der region of South Vietnam,Laos and Cambodia.

U.S. intelligence officers inthe field said the Communistcommand might try to grab alarge chunk of South Vietnam'scentral plateau to back its de-mands at the Paris peace talks-The first North Vietnamese'divi-sions ever identified in SouthVietnam made such an effort in1965, but were beaten back byAmerican troops in bloody fight-ing.

Using the same tactics as theydid when the North Vietnamesemassed two infantry divisionsaround Khe Sanh last January,U.S. commanders gave the Cen-tral Highlands top priority forB52 saturation raids. Such raidswere credited by the U.S. com-mand with breaking up an all-out enemy attack on Khe Sanh.

An indication of the priority isthat all B52s strikes were as-signed to the Highlands over thepast 24 hours. There were noother missions elsewhere in thecountry.

The latest 10 missions in-creased to 22 the number of B52raids flown in the Central High-lands over the last three days.

While the pressure mounted inthe Central Highlands, much thesame as it did at Con Thien andKhe Sanh during previous ene-my buildups, U.S. M a r i n e slocked in bitter fighting alongthe Demilitarized Zone.

Mustering every bit of fire-power they could, includingtanks, artillery and dive-bomb-ers, the Marines reported killing203 North Vietnamese troops ina savage two-day battle alongthe DMZ. It cost the Marines 23dead and 86 wounded.

Aircraft LossRises to 3,834

SAIGON (AP) — U.S. MilitaryHeadquarters reported Fridaythat 2,152 American planes and1,682 helicopters have been lostin North and South Vietnam sofar in the war.

In a periodic report on air-craft losses, headquarters said843 planes have gone down incombat over North Vietnam and25'4 have been lost to enemy firein the South.

In addition, 1,045 pianos in"Category two" have been lost.This category includes planeswhich went down through non-hostile action such as mechani-cal failures, losses of supportaircraft such as cargo planesand losses from all other causes.

Highlands and the populous rice-producing coastal lowlands ofNorth Vietnamese troops.

Headquarters said several bat-talions from the 1st Marine Div.are on the move in the new op-eration 24 miles west-southwestof Da Nang. The drive beganfive days ago, but the announce-ment was withheld until Fridayfor security reasons.

Military spokesmen said thatso far the Marines have killed76 enemy. Marine casualtieswere reported as 16 killed and82 wounded. Since the first day,when 46 enemy and 12 Marineswere killed in a fierce battle,action has been "light and scat-tered," the spokesman said.

A Marine F4 Phantom sup-porting troops south of the newMarine sweep was shot down byenemy ground fire Friday a milesouth of Tarn Ky and 35 milesbelow. Da Nang. The two-mancrew bailed out of the crippledplane and was rescued unin-jured.

In the curtailed air war overNorth Vietnam, U.S. pilots flew129 missions Thursday againstwhat pilots described as lighl-to-moderate antiaircraft fire. Pi-lots reported destroying or dam-aging 42 trucks, 20 supply boatsand six bridges in the continu-ing effort to cut the flow of ene-my supplies and troops intoSouth Vietnam.

SAIGON (AP)—er-desigiiate Tfan VaitHuong submitted to Presi-dent Nguyen Van ThieitFriday the completed listof his new cabinet, inform-ed sources reported.

The list had a majority ofBuddhists and Vietnamese o£Southern origin. This was re-garded as a setback for theintransigent minority of refu-gees from North Vietnam,many of them Konian Catho-lics, who have long played adominant role in the Saigonregime.

Some of the reported changessuggested that Vice. PresidentNguyen Cao Ky and the gener-als failed to impose their willon the new premier.

The new information minis-ter, Ton That Thien, was anewspaper owner whose paperwas suppressed while Ky wasprime minister.

The new foreign minister re-portedly w a s T r a n C h a n hThanh. He was informationminister under the late PrimeMinister Ngo Dinh Diem andwas a follower of Ho Chi Minhin the years immediately afterthe end of World War II.

There were only two generalson the list. One was Gen.Nguyen Van Vy, who remainsas defense minister. The otherwas Lt, Gen. Tran ThienKhiem, now ambassador toTaiwan, who is regarded as apersonal friend of PresidentThieu. Khiem becomes minis-ter of the interior.

NVAJeer

DeadKONTUM, Vietnam'(10)—Boo-

ing is common in spo/ts, but thebattlefields of Vietnam are notthe place for such antics.

Three North Vietnamese Armysoldiers learned this the hardway.

Recently elements of B Co.,1st Bn., 14th Inf. were attackedwhile in a night perimeter nearL.Z. Swinger west of Kontum.The a c t i o n was particularlyheavy in the sector of the peri-meter guarded by Spec. 4 JimNagel of Gettysburg, S.D., andSpec. 4 Gerry Smith of Myrtle,Miss.

Their position came underheavy mortar fire. Momentslater the two spotted the enemymortar tube, about 50 yardsaway.

Smith grabbed his M79 gre-nade launcher and lobbed threerounds within 10 meters of thetube. His fourth round was adirect hit, knocking the tube outof commission.

"Just as we started to pack upand move to a new location,"said Smith, "We heard somevoices in a huge thicket nearby.They sounded like N VA.

"Soon they started yelling'Boo GI, Boo GI.'

"We didn't know what to makeof it. So Jim and I set off aclaymore mine in the directionof the noises. We never heardthem again after that."

The next morning the twosoldiers and the rest of theirsquad patrolled the area insearch of wounded or dead NVA.They found three bodies in thethicket.

"They asked for it," saidNagel. "Maybe next time thoseguys'll keep their opinions tothemselves,"

Lt. (j.g.) Edward Haffey (left), and PT3 Eugene Young in-spect photo-reconnaissance transparencies which disclosed pre-viously undetected enemy targets in North Vietnam. (USN)

WITH f IlE ?TH FLEET INTHE TONKIN GULF <PAO) -A picture taken by accidentexposed a pair of importantand previously undetectedNorth Vietnamese military in-stallations which were attackedby Navy pilots from the USSBon Homme Richard.

The targets were a surface-to-air missile site and a petro-leum storage complex, bothnoar Vinh.

Photo Inielligenceman 3C,Eugene Young of Knb'xville,Tenn., who studies some 500reconnaissance photos daily,spotted the SAM site in a stripof photos of a field five milesnorth of Vinh, His discoverysent A4 Skyhawks on severalstrikes against the site.

At the same time, bomberswere attacking an oil storagearea 2% miles north of Vinh.The depot area had been un-known to U.S. intelligence untilLt. (j.g.) Edward Haffey, 26, ofSt. Joseph, Mo., spotted it in aphoto which a Crusader pilothad never intended to take."We were very lucky to getthat photo," Haffey said. "Airturbulence dipped one side ofthe plane a few degrees andthe camera had the POL areaon only one frame."

Haffey and Young are mem-bers of Det. 31, Light Photo-graphic Sq. 63 aboard the BonHomme Richard. Pilots of thedetachment fly specially equip-ped RF8 Crusaders on photo

reconnaissance missions; Theirfilms are processed on the car-rier and studied by experts likeHaffey and Young.

"I guess all of us want tofind a petroleum storage areaor a SAM site," Young said,"Just after I checked into thesquadron, a man in one of theother detachments found an un-detected SAM site and I decid-ed that that would be my goal.Usually the job is pretty rou-tine and when you do findsomething, someone else al-ready knows about it,

"I saw some tire tracks inthe middle of a field," he said."Them I saw an antiaircraftinstallation and I was wonder-ing what it was doing in thatarea — until I saw the firstmissile. There were four mis-siles on launchers. I couldn'twait to tell someone. I was soexcited I had butterflies in mystomach."

The tall, sandy-haired sailordid tell someone — Haffey, whomade his own find severalhours later. While inspectingtransparencies shot just northof Vinh, he spotted the tops ofpainted barrels inside a revet-ment.

Debris and smoke rising overboth targets after the strikesprevented a clear evaluation ofdamage, but pilots reportednumerous secondary explosionsat the oil storage area. Tworadar vans were destroyed andthree damaged at the SAM site.

Soldier Almost DiesIn Wrong Viet War

DAK TO, Vietnam (10) — A4th Div. soldier, convinced nowthat he is incredibly lucky, al-most became the victim of an-other war and time.

Spec. 4 James Harrison, an in-fantryman in D Co., 1st Bn., 22ndInf., jumped a large ditch duringa sweep of the foothills surround-ing the 1st Brigade commandcamp at Dak To.

"When my foot touched theother bank of the ditch," saidHarrison of Los Angeles, "Iheard a quiet little 'pop'."

The "pop" was followed by abillowing of smoke and a quickwithdrawal of Harrison's foot.
