Heavy fighting raged around two central battlefronts in Iran's oil- ri- ch Khuzistan province on the 12th day of the Persian Gulf war. The commu-niques of both sides and as far as they could be verified by reporters in the field supported Iran's claim that its forces were finally counterattack-ing. Huge columns of smoke spiraled up from Abadan and Khurramshahr, the two major Iranian ports on the Shatt- al- Ar- ab waterway giving Iran and Iraq their only shipping outlets to the Per-sian Gulf. The Iraqi port of Fao, at the juncture of the waterway and the Persian Gulf, came under non- sto- p artillery fire from the Iranian side. But in its military communique for the day, Iraq said its forces " continued to crush the enemy's counterattack, maintaining a firm hold of the territory under their control. " Both sides reported an Iraqi air at-tack on the Iranian city of Dizful, 60 miles ( 96 kilometers) inside the bor-der. Baghdad said Iranian warplanes attacked civilian targets in three Iraqi provinces. Iran said 15 people were killed and 64 wounded in the raid on DizfuL Iraq said it inflicted " heavy losses" on what it called military and economic targets there. Iran claimed to have taken the upper hand in the ground fighting. " Now the mercenary enemy realizes he is trapped in West Iran in bitter fighting with our brave forces and peo-ple and sees no escape route," a Teh-ran communique said. " For this rea-son four Iraqi Migs vengefully bombed residential areas in Dizful." Asserting it had captured all the ter-ritory it intended to take, Iraq said its forces were no longer advancing and its war effort now was concentrated on preserving its gains. Khurramshahr and Abadan, major Iranian port and refinery cities on the ( See IRAQ, Page 8A) How sweet it wasn't -- Swiss couple foiled m attempt to spread chocolate secrets BERN, Switzerland ( DPI) Fed-eral counter- espiona- ge agents have tracked down a young man and his girlfriend suspected of trying to sell Swiss chocolate secrets to the Sovi-et Union and China, the Justice Min-istry said Friday. The unnamed couple will go on trial. A ministry spokesman said the 20- year-- old man and his 19- year-- old fiancee offered to sell the recipes for 40 different kinds of chocolates. " They were held under arrest for three days but are now free pending legal action on charges of at-tempted economic espionage on be-half of foreign powers," the spokes-man said. " The whole affair is more funny than serious, but the law is the law," the spokesman said. The couple offered the chocolate secrets in letters sent in mid- Augu- st to the Soviet and Chinese embassies m Bern, the Swiss capital, a gtefrmff't said . Similar letters were sent to the East German and Saudi Arabian embassies. Justice ministry officials declined to reveal bow police who then alerted the counter- espionag- e serv-ice learned of the letters. " We can't give out that kind of in-formation," die ministry spokes-man said. Switzerland takes economic es-pionage very seriously and officials at first were reluctant to give any details at all about the affair. They finally disclosed that the would- b- e chocolate spies worked for the Suchard candy company, the girl as an apprentice. Government, officials said the man faces prosecution for trying to sell industrial secrets while the girl probably will be charged with being an accomplice. " The charges will in all likelihood be less servere than normal be-cause no information actually changed hands," one official said Experts : Neglect has made land use plan useless By Alan WhagBsM BSssoOTfem staff writer Just east of U.

Behind the hospital is the $ 500,000 Eye Re-search Foundation and the new MFA Central Laboratory. Altogether, seven buildings In the area represent about $ 10 million worth of construction since 1S70. There is one small catch: According to the city's land use plan which, among other tilings, charts where dif-ferent kinds of htnVWnE should go in the city the only Gangs that should be there are single- famil- y bouses. The gap between the land use plan and reality, planning experts say, is just one of the more obvious examples of what a decade of neglect and abuse has done to the city's plans. Bmmgf tire city has failed to keep the land use plan up to date, and b? cau? 3 it has in- diatsfiaun-anfly resorted, Sss xty in ef-fect has noplan. Wither a land use plan, members of the Columbia Planning and Zoning Commission are frying by the seats of their pants, experts say, and whether their decsstons do good or barm is only Insight a matter of chance. Henry Galetschky, a planning spe-cialist working out of the Urdverity's Governmental Affairs Program, says he is amused by Columbia. He grimly smiles as he traces contradictory poli-cy statements about land use planning by city officials in newspaper clippings he has collected over 10 years. But when he starts to review the his-tory of Columbia's planning and zon-ing, showing what he says is the pro-gressive collapse of the 12- year-- old land use plan, little seems funny to him. Much of what has happened, he says, goes directly against his beliefs as a professional planner. When Galetschky travels through Missouri to help local governments with planning and zoning problems, for example, he tells them the only justifi- catio- a for zoning is as a tool of plan-ning. He emphasizes the danger xf a zoning ccanmissiotrthat either ignores planning or has none to pay attention to. In Columbia, he says, that threat is being realized. " Because they dent have a plan, the zoning is of no value," he says. And he tells local governments that out- of- da- te land use plans are no plans at all. In Columbia, the plans are so old " there is no plan." Floyd Harmston agrees. A Universi-ty professor of economics speicalizing in regional development, he does not go to Columbia's pipnpjng and zoning meetings because, be says, they make his stomach churn. Harmston was a member of the La-ramie, Wy., planning commission for 10 years before coming to Griumbia. His five- ye- ar term as chairman, be says, had two main accomplishments: The commission drew up the first land use plan for the city which then had 20,000 residents, and it managed to strip the rival zoning commission of most of its power. These accomplishments, he says, gave planning a much greater role in Laramie city government than plan-ning has in Columbia. " It makes you snicker to look at somebody on the commission who says they are doing planning: You look at what they do and you wonder if they know what planning is. " It hasnt been a planning commis-sion; it has been a zoning commis-sion." What Harmston calls a tendency to zone first and ask questions later, if at all, is demonstrated by what has hap-- ' pened to the land east of VS. 63.
