SUNSETSUNDAY: SUNRISE MONDAY: 5:23 a Egypt has ordered Syria's diplomatic mission to leave the country within 48 hours and plans to close its mission in Damascus, a Foreign Ministry spokesman in Cairo announced Saturday. The move, tantamount to the breaking of relations, followed an attack on the Egyptian mission in Damascus by Syrians protesting the Sinai disengagement pact signed last year by Israel and Egypt. It also reflected Arab tension mounting after Syria sent troops and tanks into Lebanon Tuesday to try and enforce a cease-fire between the warring Moslems and Christians.

Arab students had occupied the Syrian Embassy in Cairo for about three hours on Thursday. They made speeches protesting the Syrian invasion and burned a picture of Syrian President Hafez Assad.

House Majority Leader Thomas P. O'Neill, is expected to succeed Albert as speaker. House Minority Leader John Rhodes, also is running for re-election.

And Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, whose son had a leg amputated in a bout with cancer two years ago, answered the plea for help." "I sent wires to everybody I could think of," said Caldwell, a retired Air Force major. "He was the first to answer me.

"He told me to have my doctor get in touch with the doctor who had treated his son to see what could be done. It gave me some hope," Caldwell said. "It may not pan out but at least it gave me some hope." Only 12 days ago doctors in Abilene told Alan Caldwell his son Gerald was suffering from a form of bone cancer called osteogenic sarcoma. They gave the youngster a 25 per cent chance of living, if the affected leg was amputated. "Last week it seemed like everything had stopped," said Caldwell.

"It seemed like the world had come to an end until Sen. Kennedy answered my wire." Dr. Norman Jaffe of the Sidney Farber Cancer Center in Brookline, a Boston suburb, agreed to take the case and funds borrowed from his father, Caldwell brought Gerald to Boston. told another interviewer, "I have no way of knowing how much wealth other individuals possess.

Shopkeepers in the market quarter closed some stalls.

Israeli troops detained about 60 persons and held them "in protective custody," security sources said. Dad's Plea "The doctors here think they can try to use bone marrow transplants to replace the cancerous bone," he said. "I'd ask for a miracle, if I could get it."

Ambulance Driver 'Fearful' (Continued From Page One) YST has one ambulance to cover the grounds, but relies on back-up aid from East Chicago fire department ambulances. The Youngstown ambulance is available with a first aid-trained two-man crew 24 hours a day. However the lone ambulance was off the grounds for repairs for 30 hours the day two men suffered gas inhalation when a power house pipe ruptured.

This was three days after the hot metal explosion in the basic oxygen furnace. The ambulance is used in "extreme" cases. Another driver said the ambulance is an "antique" and built like a truck. "When you go over a track it jumps all over the place," he said. YST also has two hospital cars.

Not all the hospital car drivers are trained in first aid, they work alone and sometimes men are assigned who are not totally familiar with the maze of roads on plant grounds. The initial decision of whether an injured person requires an ambulance or simply a ride to a first aid station rests with his foreman or fellow worker who calls the hospital and describes the injuries to a nurse. Because the inner plant hospital car has only one man to drive, the driver may decide the victim requires the ambulance with the two-man crew. "This is another bad part because still more time is lost if an ambulance is really needed in the first place," the ambulance driver said. The second hospital car is used to transport patients from home to therapy treatments or to visit the company doctor.

Although the inner plant car is also used outside the plant, neither has an Indiana highway safety sticker, according to a plant source. Of the two first aid stations which are staffed by nurses, only one is open full time. The other is closed on weekends and during the night turn. "This is a non-producing department, even though we benefit everyone," the driver said. "There is no cooperation from the supervisors.
