"Those arrested confessed to the charges, which include providing arms and ammunition to the M.P.R.P.," Mr. [Hassan Yazdani] said. "They had also promised they would stage a coup." The front-runner in the presidential race, Economics Minister Abolhassan Banff-Sadr, today criticized a decision not to allow Mr. [Rajavi] time on state radio and television. "I don't agree with it; it s quite wrong" he said. Mr. Banff-Sadr made his comments before Ayatollah Khomeini's order was broadcast.

"[Marshal Tito] doesn't just belong to Tito," said a party member. "He belongs to the whole country." "I'm scared," said a costume designer over a glass of wine in the Writers Club. "We don't know what s going on. You know, no one ever thought that 1'ito could I die--it was known, of course, but never 'I really faced up to. And suddenly we real-' ize that he is not going to live forever, after all." At a news conference here yesterday, a Foreign Ministry spokesman attacked a Bulgarian publication for an article about Macedonia, one of Yugoslavia's six re publics, as "a flagrant expression of ter claims against Yugoslavia" that "seriously jeopardizes trust and stability in the Balkans."

Some of the others are Montreuil, near the Porte de Montreuil on the eastern side of Paris; Vanves, near the Porte de Vanves on the southwestern edge; and the Marche d Aligre, in the 12th arron east of the Place de la Bas tille. Visitors should also look for the dealers' fairs that are being held more frequently all around the city. Fairs are springing up all over the country in the most unexpected loca tions to accommodate the great num ber of vendors.

A nurse says: "0.K., sweetheart. I'm just picking up your arm." Al does not respond. To a physician she frets: "We have his arms re strained. He's still turning over on his side." Five institutions in addition to North Shore Hospital can perform these computerized tests. The five hospitals, operating with "bits and pieces" of the equipment used here and generally on an "outpatient basis," according to Dr. [John Morrison], are Peter Bent Brigham and Massa chusetts General Hospital, both in Boston; Barnes Hospital, part of the University of Washington Medical School in St. Louis, and the hospitals of the University of San Diego and Johns Hopkins in Baltimore. ties he estimates the average at two and a half hours--"very good."
