Fellow - physicians at the jungle hospital in this Equa- torial African town an- nounced Wednesday that pana was seriously ll. Apart from saying Dr. Schweitzer had been "very tired" in the last week, doc- tors gave few details of his condition. They repeated the hope that the strength which car- ried him through a half-cen- tury of ministering to lepers in the sweltering jungle would pull him through the present crisis. Mrs. Eckert Aurich, daughter of the Nobel Prize- winning physician, remained | at his bedside. Dr. Schweitzer celebrated his 90th birthday Jan. 14. WILL STAY HERE At the time, Schweitzer said he intended to spend the rest of his days in Lam- barene. "I feel at home here," he said, 'and I be- long to you until my dying breath." HOPEFUL VIGIL SURROUNDS DR. SCHWEITZER _ Schweitzer abandoned a promising academic career to study medicine and was once regarded as one of Europe's foremost _ inter- preters of the music of Bach before going to Africa as a medical missionary in 1913. He was born in Kayser- burg, Alsace -- now part of France -- the son of a" Lutheran minister. He won the Nobel! Prize in 1952. } More recently, however, he was criticized by some for showing a too paternal- istic condescension toward Africans and accused of resisting the progress of . modern medicine, DO al HAL BANKS' EXTRADITION?

MONTREAL (CP) -- Police have recovered between $1,000,000 and $2,000,000 worth of bonds stolen from a branch of the Royal Bank of Canada in the Van Horne shopping cen- tre here last April. Police said today the recov- ery was made late Wednesday following an anonymous tele- phone tip. Det. Insp. Roland Perron and Det. Set. Fernand Laroche went te.a field where they found the bonds packed in a suitcase and a cardboard box... Det. Lt. J.-P. Regimbald, in charge of a squad tabulating the bonds said today: "Most of them are from the commitment and I won't go be- yond that date."

The vault robbery was car- ried out during the weekend of April 10-11 by a well-organized team of burglars. They broke into a nearby store, got between its ceiling and roof, dragged heavy equip- ment along a crawlway, and bored down into the vault. When the robbery was dis- covered on the Monday morn- ing crowds of safety-devosit box holders stormed the bank, try- ing to determine whether their holdings had been taken. There was no official state- ment on loss but estimates at- tributed to police were as high as $3,000,000. KASHMIR: WHAT IT IS NEW DELHI (AP)--Kash- mir is a strategically situ- ated state nestled in the Him- alayas and bounded by Red China, the Soviet Union, Af- ghanistan, Pakistan and In- dia. Its status was left ill-de- fined when the British pulled out of the subcontinent in 1947 and quickly became a subject of a bloody. dispute between India and Pakistan. Pakistani raiders in 1948 reached all the way to Sringa- gar, Kashmir's summer capi- tal, before Indian forces pushed them back. A UN ceasefire line was es- tablished in 1949 and there have been skirmishes along it ever since. Large-scale guerrilla war- fare broke out deep inside Kashmir Aug. 5 and India said the raiders were equipped and sent by Pakis- tan. The situation deteriorated until Wednesday when it be- came a full - scale armored and aerial battle between the forces of both coun- es.

FIGHTING STEPPED UP 'NO ACTUAL WAR YET' Pakistani Troops, Tanks Plunge Into By CONRAD FINK NEW DELHI (AP)--A Pakis- tani attack spearheaded by tanks penetrated five miles in- side Indian positions in south- west Kashmir as fighting raged for a second consecutive day, India announced today. Defence Minister Y. B, Cha- van told Parliament a massive attack by at least 3,000 Pakis- tani troops and 70 tanks across the international frontier had "seriously escalated" the fight- ing, and that the situation was still "developing." Chavan claimed 13 tanks were destroyed. He acknowledged India lost four of its planes that attacked the tanks--two planes missing and two damaged. It appeared that despite an Indian counter-attack at dawn today, Pakistani, tanks were able to burst through the Indian lines and roam about in south- west Kashmirs' flatlands. No new major action was re- ported in three salients the In- dians pushed into Pa territory in recent attacks, there was ominous talk of a wider conflict. Speaker Hukam Singh of the lower house of Parliament re- fused to let members ask Cha- van questions, saying that it was not possible when there is "actual war between us Pakistan."
