127 Lebanese Die
In Earthquakes
BEIRUT, Lebanon, —Earth
quakes wiped out two villages
and took a total of 127 lives in
Lebanon last night.
The figures were unofficial, but
they were the first issued as police
and troops toiled through wreck
age Saturday in search of victims.
Three tremors shook Lebanon
at five-minute intervals. They
were described as the worst in
Lebanese memory. About 25
towns and villages felt the blows.
Reports from the provinces said
30 perished in the village of Shi
heem and many others may have
been buried under debris.
The worst came from South
Lebanon and the Bekka valley.
There panic-stricken people ran
from their tottering houses onto
the fields and onto beaches.
Tremors were also felt in Syria
and Israel, but no damage was re
ported from those countries.
