Diplomatic sources here doubted th figure. U.S. intelligence sources in Washing ton had said Wednesday that artillery- and war plane-backed Vietnamese troops pushed iup to 37 miles into Cambodia. The analysts said they believed the Vietnamese operations were aimed at wiping out base camps used by Cambodian soldiers to infiltrate Vietnam.

But on Thursday some western BANGKOK, Thailand (AP) Vietnam, denying its forces had launched a large-scale invasion of Cambodia, said Thursday that Cambodian troops had made new forays across the border in the past few days and several hundred were killed in fighting with Vietnamese defenders. Western and other sources continue to maintain, however, that Hanoi's troops were engaged in stepped-up military activity inside Cambodia as well. A Voice of Vietnam broadcast monitored here said the Cambodians, "committing crimes against the Vietnamese people," had penetrated as far as six miles into southern Vietnam in the latest attacks and still held areas of Tay Ninh, An Giang and Kien Giang provinces. Besides inflicting heavy losses, the broadcast said, the Vietnamese troops took many prisoners and captured a reached as far as 37 miles into Cambodia to the Chup rubber plantation, but that this did not necessarily signal a major push into the Cambodian heartland. A U.S.

State Department statement released here said there had been a "significant upsurge of fighting during recent weeks at various points along the border." But the statement said reports of a massive new invasion of Cambodia by Vietnam were "inaccurate and misleading." Calling its information "sketchy and limited," the statement said the State Department did not think it appropriate to speculate on Vietnamese or Cambodian intentions in the border conflict.

ETA moderates urged partici WASHINGTON (AP) The Senate gave final approval Thursday to a bill aimed at ending the 3-week-old commercial "fishing war'' between the United States and Canada. On a voice vote, the Senate approved the interim agreement that would allow Canadian fishermen into U.S.

coastal waters through the end of 1978, provided Canada agrees to let U.S. fishermen resume operations in its offshore waters. Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, told the Senate he hoped the "beau geste (gallant gesture)" would induce Canada to reciprocate with "some comparable step," to reduce tensions and spur negotiations on a permanent fishing pact.

BILBAO, Spain (AP) The Spanish Cabinet bypassed parliament Thursday and imposed tough anti terror regulations that permit police to open mail, initiate wiretaps and hold suspected terrorists for questioning beyond the 72-hour constitutional limit. The decree law came one day after Basque separatists shot and killed a leading journalist who was reported acting for the government to open peace negotiations with rebels in northern Spain. Legislation by decree was a technique used by the late dictator Francisco Franco to avoid debate and bypass his self-appointed parliament. Police said the separatists struck against Thursday, setting off a bomb under a police jeep. A police colonel was injured in the blast.

Informed sources in this northern Spanish city said newspaper editor Jose Maria Portell had been authorized by Interior Minister Rodolfo Martin Villa to try to get peace talks started. The sources said Portell was believed to have met at least once with a spokesman for ETA, the Basque separatist group that later claimed responsibility for killing the newsman. Police sources said Portell probably was slain by a breakaway extremist faction of the ETA that opposes any pation in post -Franco politics wh ile Marxist extremi sts demanded independence for the four Basque provinces in northern Spain. Portell, a part-i'ime correspondent or The Associated Press, had close contact with ETA sources when the rebels wei-e fighting the Franco dictatorship. The sources said this apparently was the reason he was tapped by the interior minister to open pe ace talks.

Pressing the Cabinet to adopt the nev regulations, the minister said the government had to act quickly to curb the rising tide of violence, which has claimed 21 lives in he Basque region this year. Basque political leaders opposed the regulations, claiming they resembled the tough measures of the Franco regime. Under Franco, who 2 'a years ago after ruling since the end of the Spanish Civil War in 1939, terrorism was a military crime. Police could hold suspects indefinitely and wet free to open mail, initiate wiretaps and conduct searches without court ap proval. In a communique claiming responsibly for the killing of Porte II on Wednesday and a policeman in San Sebastian on Tuesday, ETA denounced the provisional autonomy given the Basq ues by the Madrid government as a fr.aud.

The addition of "identifiable" to the criteria is intended to prevent classification where damage would tie Our Pledge: BEST FINISHING ANYWHERE! WASHINGTON (AP) Saying Uncle Sam keeps too many secrets, President Carter announced Thursday an executive order he said "will increase openness in government" by tightening ground rules for classifying documents. In a statement issued by the White House heralding his action, Carter said: "While some material must be classified, the government classifies too much information, classifies it too highly, and for too long. These practices violate the public's right to know, impose unnecessary costs, and weaken protection for truly sensitive information by undermining respect for all classification." Carter's order strips 11 agencies, including the Departments of Agriculture, Labor, and Health, Education and Welfare, of all authority to classify information.

Five others will have reduced authority. The order also is intended to grant classification authority to fewer officials and sets quicker timetables for the PIBASKIN Jim to, I ROBBINS JW I ff 2 I NORTH 3 ENTRANCE We use Kodak paper For a good look.
