Unabashed CheerMarks Super 4th
By The Associated PressAmericans, 215 million strong, lit up the night skies, filled their
waters with ships and sail, marched up their streets with colorsstreaming, trembled the air with pride and song and cheered their200th Fourth of July with a rare unabashed joy.
By nightfall, they had spangled the skies over New York, Boston,Washington and dozens of other cities with a starry parfait of red,white and blue.

It was a day and a night to be savored. All day Ion?. $ rasters,wherever they met, wished each other "Happy PfrSmay." It was atime to time to rival the Victory days at the ends of wars.
At 2 p.m. New York time, 1 p.m. Chicago time, noon Denver time,11 a.m. Los Angeles time, 9 a.m. Anchorage time and 8 a.m, Hoaolnlutime, the President rang a ceremonial bell on the deck of the U.S.S.Forrestal in New York harbor, setting off a nationwide dwras ofchimes, carillons and church bells.
People were up before dawn — to see tfce rocket's red glare afcoveFort McHenry, to pray at the Lincoln Memorial, to keep vigil at Inde-pendence Hail and touch the Liberty Bell, to crowd the banks of NewYork harbor for a spectacle of maritime splendor past and present
For a nation grown accustomed to ferment and torment, tifc wasalmost a totally happy and peaceful day. Protests and dissente weremuted.
Instead, a different kind of American seemed to take over this day,and he waited in line 3Va hours at the National Archives to see thenation's birth certificate.

There were Indian dances in Oklahoma, family picnics inta, a 50-gun salute at Fort Knox, KyM a picnic for prison inmates atMoundsville, W. Va., and a parade in San Francisco that found roomfor marchers in favor of Puerto Rico, Palistinians, Latinos, Blacks,women, and homosexuals. In San Francisco too, the bells of cablecars joined the national celebration of the bells.
And at Valley Forge, Pa., Josh Millon, visiting from Kansas City,paid a half-dollar for a cup of crushed ice and said, "Weil, it afci't thebig party I expected, but it is history. And darn if they ain't dotag itright."
Americans all over the world celebrated in their own way. InPeking, in an area near the Ming Tomb, Americans on the U.S. mis-sion staff picnicked on hot dogs. And in Hiroshima, an American sci-entist studying radiation effects served hamburgers and hot dogs to 18Japanese friends who wore red, white and blue neckties.
Westward the celebration moved with the sun in a massive saluteperhaps no nation had known before, a people led by instinct morethan by duty. Church bells confirmed their feelings and the nationseemed alive with an uncommon sense of family.
President Ford punctuated the initial events. He was at ValleyForge early to formally receive the 200 wagons of five wagon tratosthat traversed the nation to memorialize those Revolutionary soldierswho, said Ford, "came here in the snows of winter over a trailmarked with the blood of their rag-bound feet."
Then he flew to Independence Hall where, under a brilliant sun, thesquare was jammed with a hundred thousand Americans who ringedthe red brick, white steepled shrine and filled the block-long mall tothe pavilion where hangs the Liberty Bell, that, the President said,"joyously rang out news of the birth of our nation.''

The predawn airborne raid <m Entebbe,more than fire hows' frying time fromTel Aviv, came a week after the hijack-ers seized an Air France jet «ver Athensand only 10 hoars before fee deadline setby the terrorists to kill their hostages.
They had threatened to Wow up thecaptives at 7 a.m. EDT if 53 Arab aridother prisoners held in Israel and Europewere not freed.
The Israeli commander of the mission,paratroop Brig. Dan Shomrtn, said hismen killed seven terrorists "and that isalmost all the terrorists we think therewere." Peres said the terrorists includedPalestinians and a German man andwoman.
Earlier, in Mauritius, Ugandan ForeignMinister Juma Oris had claimed 100Ugandan troops were killed in the raid.He termed the action an example of "Is-raeli aggression" and said Uganda wascalling for an urgent session of the UnitedNations Security Council.
Arnin was quoted In an Israeli newspa-per interview saying, "I had meant todayto work for the release of the Israelis andfor that reason I came back early from aconference in Mauritius. All that is leftfor me is to count the dead."
The raid clearly caught Amin and hisHighly vaunted army, as well as thehijackers, completely off guard. The Is-raeli government, in what had appearedas a total turnaround in policy, had indi-cated readiness to negotiate for the re-lease of the hostages.
*Raider UnitNow Legend
TEL AVIVt Israel (AP) - Almost no-booy knows who they are, but the styleand daring of the commandos who res-cued more than 100 hostages from air hi-jackers in faraway Uganda Sunday are al-ready legend in Israel.
Because their names, pictures andbackgrounds are concealed» the strikeforce is called by many Israelis simply"hahevreh" — the guys.
The group came into being as a resultof a fateful decision by the Israeli govern*ment: to combat terrorist warfareagainst the Jewish state with force and torefuse to give in to ransom demands.
Sunday's strike into Uganda was thesecond Israeli assault against a foreignairport in peacetime.
In December, 1968, Israeli commandosin helicopters attacked Beirut airport,cleared civilians out of the way and blewup 13 Arab airliners parked on theground. The strike was in reprisal for thePalestinian ambush of an Israeli El Atplane in Athens.
In 1969, terrorists attacked an El Aiairliner at Zurich airport in Switzerland.A pistol shot from the cockattacker from 50 yards, andended with the plane unscathed,
Israeli forces have often wiped outgu .ilia raiders and rescued hostages in-side Israel itself, but the Uganda opera-tion was the first that freed hostages heldabroad.

Boats ExplodeTwo cabin cruisers exploded Sunday in separate incidents on Oneida
Lake sending live badly burned passengers to Syracuse hospitals.Both vessels were engulfed in flames after the explosions, according to
witnesses. Leaking gasoline is suspected in both blasts.The explosions occurred within a half hour of each other — one at the B
and B Marina, Murray Drive, Town of Clay, and the other at Trade-A-Yacht Marina on the western Oneida Lake inlet.
In the accident at Trade-A-Yacht, the children of Mr. and Mrs. JamesMcLain of 108 Legion Drive, North Syracuse, were rushed to the burn unitat State University Hospital.
