P.L.O. Recalls Envoy in Rome

Transcribed from the clipping
BEIRUT, Lebanon, Oct. 15 (AP) — The Palestine Liberation Organization recalled its representative in Rome today. The move was said to be a protest against the Italian Government's handling of an investigation into the death of a high P.L.O. official, Abu Sharar, on Oct. 9.
How this transcription was made
Masthead not readable on the scan. The label on the slide read: [no masthead on clipping] — A short news brief, four lines of body text, read at 6x. The whole item is transcribed. No masthead, date line or page number on the fragment. The dateline Oct. 15 supports Maria's label of 16 October 1981 as the publication date, and the "P.L.O." styling with periods is consistent with New York Times house style of the period, but neither confirms the paper from the page itself.
