In other developments Sunday: The Washington Post, in Monday's editions, reported that Israeli arms brokers substituted obsolete anti-aircraft missile parts in a secret November 1985 arms shipment to Iran. The Post quoted unidentified U.S. and Israeli military sources as saying the substitution angered the Iranians and led the Reagan White House to begin sending weapons directly from U.S.

military stocks. Vice President George Bush defended President Reagan's handling of the controversy over arms sales to Iran and denied any personal involvement in private funding of Nicaraguan Contras. Bush, interviewed by telephone from his vacation home in Ken-nebunkport, Maine, told Time magazine that he had remained silent on the arms sale and alleged diversion of funds to the Contra rebels but that he continued to support Reagan.

Another $3,000 came from private donations and the sale of sweatshirts and T-shirts. "We have paid our liability insurance for the building arid still have over $9,000 in the bank," Mrs. Zelinka said. Former County Commissioner Jim Estes, ajstrong supporter of the idea, said afte the meeting young people have bepn the key to it all. "Thei are on the threshold of getting tpa't thing open," he said.

"Students from both high schools and other Schools made valuable efforts in clean-up and fund-raising." Estes said the county commission's support could make the difference in having the center open by the first of the year.

The building is located across the street from the city parking lot in downtown Murfreesboro, about one block from the police building.

Daniel Patrick Moynihan, appearing on the NBC-TV show "Meet the Press," joined the call for a select congressional committee and independent prosecutor. Moynihan said that the president has 48 hqurs to realize how serious' the matter is or "air will be lost." The Iran-Contra connection, disclosed on Nov.

In calling for a 1 independent counsel, Byrd said Meese "is personally close to the president is a member of the National Security Council and has said that evryone should stand shoulder to shoulder with the president." Byrd declined to speculate whether Meese knew about the Nicaraguan connection before his probe, although the attorney general supplied the president with a legal opinion supporting the partial easing of the arms embargo on Iran last Jan. 17. "The perception is that there is a personal interest and a conflict of interest" created by leaving Meese in charge of the investigation, Byrd said.

"The president needs to avoid all of that." Durenberger also said that retired Air Force Maj. Gen. Richard V. Secord is linked to North's activities. "The preliminary investigation indicates that General Secord is involved in this operation," Durenberger said.

Secord, a former, top Pentagon official on the Middle' East, worked with North in 1981 to arrange the sale of U.S. AWACS surveillance planes to Saudi Arabia.

Dave Durenberger, R-Minn. The comittee has contacted North and expects to meet with him and other former NSC members and employees before inviting any cabinet officers to appear, Durenberger said. Asked Sunday by Cable News Network whether he would testify, White House chief of staff Donald T. Regan said he couldn't "guarantee it "because the advice I give to the president obviously is a matter of executive privilege or else you won't have a separation of powers, which is necessary under the Constitution." Although -Durenberger, who appeared on CBS, declined to specify who would be called before the committee, he later told reporters the the list "will include at least two former members, of the National Security Council and employees of the National Security Council, the CIA, and people who were former employees of the government."
