Mobsters' Slayings May Be Linked to Castro Plot By Bryce Nelson CHICAGO — The discovery Saturday of murdered mobster John Roselli in Miami has spurred discussions in Washington and Chicago about whether the slayings of Roselli and his associate, Sam (Momo) Giancana, were related to their role in a reputed CIA plot to kill Cuban Premier Fidel Castro. Officials also wonder whether the murders of the two mobsters are linked to their invitations to testify about the CIA plot last year before the Senate Intelligence Committee. "It makes me wonder," said Sen. Frank Church, D-Idaho, in a telephone interview Sun-

Steiger Has Surgery INGLEWOOD, Calif. — Actor Rod Steiger, 51, is doing well after delicate open heart surgery, doctors at Daniel Freeman Hospital said. The star of such movies as "In The Heat of the Night," "No Way to Treat a Lady," and "The Pawnbroker," was listed "in very good condition and progressing as expected" Sunday, a day after he underwent a cardiac bypass operation. A hospital spokesman said Steiger, who won an Academy Award for his portrayal of a southern sheriff in "In The Heat of the Night," was transferred from intensive care to a private room Sunday.

Chess Match Moot BIENNE, Switzerland — World chess champion Anatoly Karpov has pledged to renounce his title if he is beaten by Bobby Fischer in a proposed $5-million exhibition match, according to the president of the International Chess Federation. However, Dr. Max Euwe said in an interview Sunday that he doubted the exhibition match will ever be played. "Fischer is very demanding," he said. Karpov will surrender his title if he is beaten by Fischer "because I would no longer be the best player," Euwe quoted the world champion as saying. The chess federation stripped Fischer of the world championship title last year and awarded it to Karpov when Fischer refused to play the Russian because of a dispute over rules.

congressmen for funding or whether the politicians were aware that they had been chosen. The CIA found it advantageous to merge with Hughes because he had created exotic weapons systems and had reliable data about foreign governments, Playboy said. Hughes considered the CIA an asset because it removed his actions from close government scrutiny.

CHICAGO (UPI) - The CIA -planned to use an organization owned by the late billionaire Howard Hughes as a front to funnel money to the 1968 campaigns of Gerald Ford and 30 other conservative congressmen, Playboy magazine says. In a copyrighted article in the magazine's September issue, Playboy said it was unable to determine why the CIA selected the

Irate Pastor, Aides Foil Sunday Stickup DETROIT (UPI) - The Rev. Stanley Pickard was not about to let a gunman interrupt his sermon Sunday at the 25th Street Church of God. The holdup man and three accomplices ordered about 60 parishioners attending morning service to place their valuables in plastic bags. But Pickard, 40, and several church deacons jumped the gang leader as he approached the pulpit and took his gun away, police said. The suspect, Coleman Carroll Brown, 25, of Detroit, was so severely beaten by the angry churchmen that he had to be

day. "One murder could have been unrelated, but with two, I'm given some pause. I have to confess there is now reason to wonder." Church was chairman of the Senate committee which was preparing to call Giancana shortly before he was murdered in his suburban home here on June 19, 1975. Roselli gave his testimony on June 24, 1975. At that time Church said Roselli "gave us a good deal of detail" about the CIA plot. According to the published testimony, Roselli told the committee that he and Giancana had been recruited in 1961 by the CIA as part of a plot to kill Castro. He testified that he turned down the offer.

Playboy released a copy of a memorandum it said was delivered to Hughes by one of his top aides. It included a list of senators and representatives selected for funding — all Republicans, Southern Democrats or from Hughes' home state of Nevada. The extent of the funding was unknown. Playboy said CIA infiltration of Hughes' Summa Corp. spread to such a degree that it helped lead to the resignation of former President Richard M. Nixon. The magazine said the Watergate breakin resulted from White House concern over possible revelations from Democratic national headquarters linking Nixon to Hughes. Robert Maheu, manager of the Hughes-Nevada operations, was assigned to meet with Nixon and. engineer an election victory.

"It bears looking into," Inouye said in a telephone interview about a possible connection between the two murders and the reported CIA plot. "I'm asking for the facts for the committee. If the committee sees fit, we'll ask for an investigation." The FBI did not conduct a substantial investigation of the Gianacana murder, according to federal sources here.

Eucharistic Congress Closes PHILADELPHIA (AP) President Ford's oblique denunciation of abortion

apparently pleased most of 100,000 persons gathered for the closing ceremony of a worldwide Roman Catholic assembly. . Host of those assembled in John F. Kennedy Stadium stood to applaud and cheer when Ford told the International Eucharistic Congress on Sunday that he shared the church's concern about "increased irreverence for life." Ford, an Episcopalian, said, "The supreme value of every person to whom life is given by God is a belief that comes to us from the Holy Scriptures confirmed by all the great leaders of the church."

Some church members had been hoping the President would take a stronger position and perhaps support a constitutional amendment to forbid abortion — a step favored by the Catholic church's U.S. bishops.

Viking Data HEttfii Puzzles Scientists ONE film PASADENA, Calif. (UPI) — If there is life on Mars, maybe it likes to play hideand-seek. Scientists at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory frankly admit they do not know what to make of results beamed back to earth from Viking l's robot laboratory on the surface of the red planet. Results suggest "at least the possibility of biological activity" — life — there. Scientists are careful to say they are making no claim now. The results also could be caused by an instrument error, by unknown qualities of Martian soil or by some yet unsuspected factor. "It's a tantalizing result, no question about that," Dr. Harold Klein, chief of the biology team, said Sunday, but "right now we have half the information we need." The pyrolitic release experiment, which looks for carbon assimilation by microorganisms, showed a radioactive curve six times higher than anticipated. Another puzzling result came from the labeled release experiment, which showed a second surge of radioactivity when more nutrient was added to the Martian soil in its test chamber.
