The limit next year would and automatic adjustments would follow in future years. Under the conference bill, the earnings limit would go to $4,000 next year and increase in $500 increments to $6,000 in 1982. After that, the automatic adjustments would resume.

The increase, however, would apply only to those 65 or older. Persons retiring at earlier ages would continue to be covered by existing law. The panel also dropped a Senate proposal, supported by the Carter administration, that would have levied higher taxes on employers than on employees. Also dropped in the compromise was a House provision for loans from the general treasury when Social Security reserves run low. The proposal to provide tax credits for tuition would cost the government about $1.2 billion a year.

That was one of two unrelated provisions tacked onto the Social Security legislation. However, the conferees had reached a compromise on a series of unrelated welfare amendments. The key element of that compromise is an immediate $187 million federal grant to help states, cities and counties pay their welfare costs. Sen. William V.

Roth, sponsor of the tuition tax credit proposal, challenged the House conferees to let the full House vote on it without their endorsem*nt. But Rep. Al Ullman, the chief House negotiator, argued that the House had never had full hearings on the proposal, aimed at easing the burden of college expenses on students and their parents. "I would feel totally derelict in my duty if I brought to the House a proposition that had not been fully considered, along with the alternatives," Ullman said. "It would be grossly unfair to the members." Roth said, however, he believed the House would approve the measure if given the opportunity.

Sen. Long, who supports the proposal, said the bill then could be sent to the White House with the college tuition rider.

Bad Heart Bull remains in the adjustment center awaiting trial on attempted escape and assault and battery charges.

He is serving a year term for third degree burglary. Kornmann said he anticipates board action on the report. After the incident, Rolfson was transferred from the adjustment center, where he had worked for nine months, to the minimum security prison farm. Solem said he had been "earmarked to go three or four months earlier" but had remained at his post because the staff was too shorthanded to move him earlier. "The incident certainly had some bearing on it," Solem said, "but it' (the transfer) had been discussed." Larsen said he had told his version of the incident to the Board of Charities and Corrections investigation and was "not in agreement" with Thu's claims.

"The guy kinda got his story turned around a bit," he said. Larsen, recently promoted to captain, has worked at the penitentiary for 10 years. He had been recreation director and helped establish its black studies program. He said he couldn't comment on Thu's allegations because he was "going to be appearing in court" on the matter. Rolfson said he would not comment on the case while it was under investigation by the corrections board.

"I certainly will make a comment on these charges but not at this moment," he said. "I hate not to be able to comment on this." Solem also said he would not respond to the allegations until the corrections board released its report, but said Bad Heart Bull's disclipinary record was, "one of the longest in the Thu said he was not called to testify before the board on the incident. Betting ring arrests made MINNEAPOLIS (AP) Seven persons from the Minneapolis-St. Paul area and one from Iowa were arrested Friday after an extensive investigation uncovered a milliondollar betting ring, the FBI said. An FBI spokesman, Dick Anderson, said bets totaling over $1 million were made and received on college and professional football and basketball and National Hockey League games during a two-week period in December 1976 and January 1977.

He said the bets were uncovered through a court-ordered wire tap on telephones in Minneapolis, Bloomington and St. Paul. Anderson identified those arrested and charged with violation of gambling law as William C. Wolk, 47, Minneapolis; Dwight W. Mezo, 32, Bloomington; Anthony J.

(AP Laserphoto) Area Striking miners halt train to halt non-union coal flow By The Associated Press Striking miners halted a coal train for several hours Friday in Pennsylvania as members of the United Mine Workers union stepped up efforts to stop the flow of non-union coal. And while negotiators for the union and the Bituminous Coal Operators Association held bargaining sessions in Washington, authorities in Lee County, were investigating a blast which wrecked a $180,000 mining machine. And chartered helicopters were used to carry non-union miners to work i in Utah, where some vandalism has been directed against nonUMW mines and miners. Fist fights broke out at a non-UMW coal loading dock at Rockport, as striking miners yanked drivers from their bulldozers, state police said. The estimated 300 men, in a caravan of about 50 cars, had earlier disarmed a security guard and damaged some heavy equipment at a mine about 10 miles away, police said.

There were no arrests. The four-day-old strike has cut the 'Fatman' robber strikes again VANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) The "Fatman" a suntanned robber who holds up banks and then spends his loot vacationing in tropical climes apparently has struck for the 20th time, bringing his three haul to $94,346, police say. "He looks fat, but he's actually very agile and fast on his feet," Sgt. John Lucy said Thursday two days after the Fatman, as police refer to him, struck for the latest time. "Of course, until we catch him we can't be absolutely certain that he did all those jobs," Lucy said." "But he's the No.

1 suspect in all of them because of photographs, descriptions by witnesses and similarities in the methods used." Police believe the Fatman is around 40, stands 5-foot-10 and weighs 200 pounds. They say he often wears mirrored sunglasses and a head covering, usually strikes when a bank has few customers and is known for disappearing swiftly on foot after each holdup. He operates only on the South Side of this capital city of Canada's westernmost province, well away from the congested traffic in the downtown area. The Fatman has not injured anyone, but he carries a semiautomatic pistol and police say he could be dangerous. Authorities believe he spends at least part of the loot on exotic vacations because about once a year he disappears for a few months, then turns up at his next bank job sporting a deep tan.

His tan was back Tuesday, and he also had grown a neatly trimmed, dark beard, police were told. His career apparently began with a failure when he fled a Bank of Nova Scotia branch without any loot Jan. 28, 1974. Since then he has gotten away with amounts of cash ranging from $1,400 to $13,000.

The bargainers in Washington met in the afternoon and again in the evening. Sources said the discussions were continuing to focus on the industry's demand for greater stability at the mines, which have been plagued by wildcat strikes. Chief industry negotiator Joseph P. Brennan said after the hour and a half afternoon meeting, "We are having a very good discussion UMW Vice President-elect Sam Church said the BCOA had turned down at the afternoon session a union request to provide health and life insurance benefits during the strike.

The benefits were cut off when the strike began because the union's benefit funds are nearly depleted. Companies make payments into the funds on a formula keyed to production and worker-hours. "We told the union today we can only provide benefits for the work force when it is working," said BCOA spokesman Morris Feibusch. UMW President Arnold Miller issued a statement Friday calling on pickets to stop demonstrating outside benefit fund offices. He said the union "does not sanction or condone" the 7-campus financial program operational picketing.
