Wazzan, a Sunni Moslem, told reporters after a Cabinet session he was stepping down to clear the way for the "formation of a national unity Cabinet to undertake the rebuilding of the homeland." President Amin Gemayel, a Maronite Christian, said later in a statement that he needed time to decide whether to accept the resignations and asked the Wazzan government to remain in office "until the features of the new era crystalize and the arragements to usher it in are France, Italy and the United States have contingents in the force. Police said 806 Lebanese were killed and 1,725 wounded in the three-week war that broke out when the Israeli army withdrew from the central mountains Sept.

The cease-fire agreement was announced at midnight Sunday just a few hours after shelling which wounded four U.S. Marines at Beirut's international airport. Beirut residents said the roar of artillery, rockets and mortars that shook the capital throughout the night stopped at the cease-fire deadline.

However, the army said three gunmen tried to infiltrate the army-held mountaintop town of Souk el-Gharb about 2'2 hours after the deadline, drawing fire from the garrison before withdrawing. And there was an exchange of fire between the Lebanese army and Druse gunners in Kaif oun, less than a mile from Souk el-Gharb. A Lebanese government official said the United Nations would be asked to provide 500 observers to help police the cease-fire. In London, the British Foreign Office said the four nations contributing to the multinational force that has been patrolling Beirut will meet "urgently in New York to consider what steps to take in view of the truce.

Britain, Syria and Lebanese Druse leader Walid Jumblatt had demanded the resignation of Wazzan as a condition for a cease-fire in the civil war, which pitted Syrian-backed Druse militias and their leftist Lebanese allies against Christian militias and the Lebanese army. The prime minister announced he was stepping down hours after the cease-fire went into effect, silencing the guns around Beirut and opening the way for a national unity conference between the feuding factions. "It marks the convening of a true dialogue among leaders of Lebanon involving individuals whose experience in shaping the course of this country for a generation can lead to a truly new beginning," said U.S. presidential envoy Robert C. McFarlane, who helped arrange the truce.

The Lebanese army and police said parties in theconf lict Reagan offers to cut missile deployments LP MB I Ik St By JAMES GERSTENZANG Associated Press UNITED NATIONS President Reagan, declaring "a nuclear war cannot be won and must never be fought," today offered to reduce the number of new missiles the United States plans to deploy in Europe if the Soviet Union accepts his challenge to cut global nuclear stockpiles. "The door to an agreement is open," he said. "It is time for the Soviet Union to walk through it." The president made his remarks in a speech prepared for delivery before the 38th annual session of the United Nations General Assembly. Reagan used the speech, his first to the General Assembly, to castigate the Soviets for striking down a Korean Air Lines jetliner. But he also held out the carrot of arms control agreements, stressing the need for a peaceful solution to global disputes and employing less harsh language than in recent remarks on the airplane catasrophe.

At the same time, he affirmed "our unwavering support" for the United Nation's peacekeeping missions at a time of when efforts are being made to cut the U.S. contribution to the U.N. budget and decried "theemergence of blocs and the polarization of the U.N." The centerpiece of the president's arms control proposal was an offer to cut, by an unspecified figure, the number of Pershing 2 and cruise missiles the North Atlantic Treaty Organization plans to begin deploying in Western Europe in December. While U.S. and Soviet negotiators confer in Geneva, Switzerland, on reducing the number of such medium-range missiled, the president has said that, barring an agreement, deployment of the 108 Pershings and 464 cruise missiles will go ahead on schedule.

Outlining in only vague terms what hecalled "a package of steps designed to advance the negotiations as rapidly as possible," Reagan offered to not try to of set, with western missile deployments in Europe, the entire Soviet missile deployment throughout 'the world "if the Soviet Union agrees to reductions and limits on a global basis." In addition, he said the United States would be "more flexible" about the topics of the Geneva talks being con-Please see REAGAN, Page 4A The Winners Associated Press Shelley Long and Judd Hirsch (left) celebrate Emmy victories, (right), who was named best lead actress in a limited series for for their roles in 'Cheers' and while Barbara Stanwyck her role in 'The Thorn holds award backstage.

3rd car crash spurs him to action vf' GILBERTSVILLE, Pa. Television weatherman and news anchorman Jim O'Brien plunged to his death yesterday while skydiving when his parachute became tangled with another. O'Brien had cut himself loose from his main chute, apparently to avoid injury to himself or the other diver, but he was only about 100 feet from the ground. His reserve chute had barely opened before he hit, witnesses said. Friends said it was at the same Montgomery County airfield where he made his first jump five years ago.

Yesterday's jump was his 814th. O'Brien, 43, a member of the WPVI-TV (Channel 6) Action News team, made the jump with four friends from an altitude of 8,500 feet. After a freefall, his chute became entangled with that of Doug Sellix of Bethlehem. Sellix pleaded with O'Brien to ride township committee and anyone who dares go over the 20 mph speed limit on his street. Chain-smoking in his easy chair the other day, Corcoran looked out his front window and pointed to his driveway beyond the hedges.

"They even got me over there when my daughter's car was parked in the driveway back in 1973. This guy hit the car so hard he turned it around and plowed it into the hedges. I mean, the car was in my driveway." Without a car to use for his 24-mile trip to work in Horsham, each day, he's had to pay $30 a week for a ride. He's also had to sell two of the cars hit in the last three years for much less than their value because of heavy damage. Both were older cars 1970 and 1972.

The most recent crash three weeks ago has left him with an unusable 1965 Plymouth. Please see 3RD CAR, Page 4A By RITA MANNO Of the Courier-Post CINNAMINSON In 1980, a driver speeding down Fairfax Drive crashed into John Corcoran's Chevrolet, which was parked in front of his house. In 1982, another driver, also speeding down the same narrow, curving street, smashed into another Corcoran car, which was sitting in the same spot. Three weeks ago, at 2:30 a.m. the Corcoran family heard screeching tires and a loud thump.

Even before jumping out of bed, they knew it had happened again. Another family car had been hit. Three cars in three years," said the 54-year-old Cinna-minson homeowner. "I mean, what are the odds of that happening, huh?" Corcoran, the father of eight children, is fed up.
