— Flood waters from the

CAMP DAVID, Md. (UPI)
- The Middle East peace

toward agreement on some

differences" remain,

It also wrecked a number of
parked cars and carved a
two-foot crater in the
sidewalk
At 8:50 a.m., an hour after
the explosion, a caller to
United Press International
said the bombing was carried
out by the right-wing terrorist
group Omega 7.
Omega 7, made up of Cuban
exiles, has claimed
responsibility for a number of
bombings, mostly in the New
York area
Authorities said Police
Officer Leo Knox was taken
to Lenox Hill Hospital and
treated for ringing in his ears.
Assistant Police Chief
Harold Schryer said the cop
was spared from possibly
fatal injuries because he was
walking around a parked car
when the bomb went off.
"The car in front blocked
the explosion from killing the
police officer," Schryer said.
Maranajo Santiago, a
mission guard, received head
injuries but refused treat-
building across the street,

Police maintain a 24-hour
guard at the mission.
Schryver offered no ex-
planation on how the
terrorists were able to sneak
by. But he said it could have
been done in the time it takes
“to drop a piece of paper."
He said the bomb was "a
high-order explosive set off
by a watch.”
Police were hampered in
the investigation by Cuban di-
plomats, who barred them
from entering the mission.
The Spanish-accented man
who called UPI said, “This
bombing was in reply to
