The president went on nationwide television Thursday night to address the concerns of an American public shaken by the startling deaths of more than 200 Marines and sailors in Beirut and the invasion of the tiny island of Grenada.

In strong terms, he defended U.S. actions on both fronts and blamed the Soviets for encouraging the troubles in Lebanon and Grenada. "THE EVENTS in Lebanon and Grenada, though oceans apart, are closely related," Reagan said. "Not only has Moscow assisted and encouraged the violence in both countries, but it provides direct support through a network of surrogates and By The Associated Press A 22-year-old Michigan medical student evacuated from Grenada says President Reagan did the right thing sending U.S. troops to the Caribbean island.

"Some people are complaining that we shouldn't have invaded," said James Wynalda of Rockford, adding that Reagan is "a wise president and someone with guts to step in and forget the diplomacy."

officials said. Late Thursday, U.S. artillery pounded Cuban positions in the hills overlooking the captured air field where American troops seized Soviet and Cuban arms on the southern tip of the island. Eight U.S. troops were reported dead, eight were missing and 39 were wounded.

An undetermined number of extra U.S. troops arrived Thursday, bolstering the force of 2,800 Marines and Army Rangers already on Grenada, the smallest nation in the Western Hemisphere. JOURNALISTS ON the first media tour U.S. officials allowed to the Island reported intense artillery fire in the mountains Thursday night three to five miles east of the airport here. Military officials also said U.S.

jets made some strafing runs. The reporters were returned to nearby Barbados after a six-hour tour. The unfinished airport area thundered and crackled with artillery and machine-gun fire as helicopters and transport planes ferried in the additional troops at dusk. U.S. military officials said the Marines and paratroopers crushed the final stronghold of the island's defenders Thursday.

One military source said the U.S. forces controlled about two square miles around the airstrip that was under construction with Cuban assistance. unable search area with jackhammers to try to retrieve the bodies. ALSO AT the site today was Navy chaplain Ken Griffin, 37, of Louisville, a Southern Baptist minister who arrived from a warship offshore. "I was awe struck by the whole thing," Griffin said.

"The mutilation of the bodies, the quick decomposition. There may be some we will never be able to find. I really feel badly for the families." Asked how the surviving soldiers had responded, Griffin said: "They can't believe it. They can't understand why it happened." SEARCHERS ALSO were digging today for two missing Frenchmen in the ruins of a nine-story apartment building that had been headquarters of a French paratroop company in a Beirut seafront residential area. France's Defense Ministry said the French casualty toll was 56 killed and 15 wounded.

About 300 Marines and other U.S. military personnel were sleeping when the terrorist rammed a truck packed with a ton of explosives into the lobby. The blast wounded 75 men. Marine commander Col.

"They were not going to release us," she said of the leftist military faction that seized control of the former British colony, last week in a bloody coup. But Sassan Mohtadi, 21, who left Iran before Ayatollah Ruhollab Khomeini seized power, said he did not fear for his safety before the arrival of American troops. "A MAJOR from the Grenadian government kept telling us that we would not be harmed," he said. "I thought things were going to go back to normal."

Fulmer, 57, and Louis Molitoris, 59, worked 17-hour days, lived in a trailer with no utilities or toilets, and ate moldy bread and maggot-ridden poultry, the FBI said in an affidavit filed Wednesday in U.S. District Court.

Fulmer had lived on the 450-acre farm since 1967 and Molitoris since 1972, FBI Special Agent James Riley said in the affidavit. Riley said the pair received no wages during that period except $10 at Christmas and Easter. THE MEN were removed from the farm in August by the Washtenaw County Sheriff's Department, acting on a tip from a farm employee. They were given temporary shelter in the Ann Arbor Salvation Army and have since been placed in foster care by the county Department of Social Services.

The president said before U.S. and Caribbean forces invaded Grenada on Tuesday it "was a Soviet-Cuban colony being readied as a major military bastion to export terror and undermine democracy. We got there just in time." He said the foremost mission of American forces on Grenada was to guarantee the safety of U.S. citizens there.

"The nightmare of our hostages in Iran must never be repeated," he declared. REAGAN SAID he ordered the invasion of Grenada because of an urgent request from that island's neighbors "that we join them in a military operation to restore order and democracy in Grenada. "The legitimacy of their request, plus my own concern for our citizens, dictated my decision," said Reagan. Snipers to block BEIRUT. Lebanon (AP) Undeterred by sniper fire, searchers today reached the basement of the bomb-devastated U.S.

Marine post at Beirut's international airport. The Pentagon put the American death toll at 225. Marine spokesman Maj. Robert Jordan said the base took "some sporadic sniper fire during the night" that caused no casualties. He said the Marines did not fire back.

JORDAN SAID the sniping from southeast of the base did not interrupt the round-the-clock search for more victims in the rubble of the Marine command post, shattered by a suicide terrorist's truck bomb Sunday. "We are still working 24 hours a day," he said. "They (the searchers) are now working on the rubble of the first floor and basement." He said it would be at least another full day before he would be sure the Marines have been through the entire building. JORDAN SAID today that 1,000 of the Marine peacekeepers have used a special telephone connection to call home to say they survived the bombing. The telephone arrangement at the airport would be kept up until every Marine and Navy man on the base when the blast occurred had a chance to call, Jordan said.

Marine chaplain George Pucci-arelli, 35, a Roman Catholic priest from Boston, said rescuers could see two bodies in the rubble but had been unable to extract them for fear of bringing down a huge slab of concrete.

"It is no coincidence," he said, "that when the thugs tried to wrest control over Grenada, there were 30 Soviet advisers and hundreds of Cuban military and paramilitary forces on the island." And he noted that 7,000 Soviet advisers and technicians are in Syria, which, he said, "makes no secret of its claim that Lebanon should be a part of a greater Syria." He opened his address with a reminder of another Soviet act: "Some two months ago, we were shocked by the brutal massacre of 269 men, women and children, more than 60 of them Americans, in the shooting down of a Korean airliner. "NOW," HE ADDED, "in these past several days, violence has erupted again."

are skeptical because of past unsuccessful attempts by the city to halt big parties. "MY HOPE is that it won't be necessary to enforce the ordinances, but if they are violated, people will be out to enforce them," promised City Manager Jerry Coff-man. East Lansing police are gearing up for the weekend by assigning more officers to patrol the city and handle traffic from the capacity crowd expected at Spartan Stadium. Police contacted persons in nine houses on a street where a large block party was planned, resulting in cancellation of the party, said East Lansing Police Captain Tom Hendricks. "But'we're, not through the weekend yet," he cautioned.

OFFICER FRED SCHNARR personally visited 16 to 20 houses in the city. Most were receptive and courteous, bowing to peer pressure and police efforts. "All I'm doing is trying to show kids there's a law and please adhere to it I'm not trying to give them a hard time," said a weary Schnarr, who said he also checked local stores and found that no beer kegs had been ordered. "Some students may party because we tried to stop them," he said. "Let's hope it's quiet and it rains." APPhon CHARGED Margarethe Kozminski is pictured after her arrest in Ann Arbor Wednesday.

She is charged with keeping two middle-aged farmhands as slaves for more than a decade. Ingham rejected pair charged with slavery Police hope plug pulled on parties A couple charged with holding two retarded men in slavery on their Chelsea dairy farm sought $5.3 million in Ingham County economic development funds earlier this year to build a large egg-producing facility near Stockbridge. The controversial proposal was killed in March after trade unions protested that Ike and Margarethe Kozminski would not agree to pay the "prevailing wage" for construction of the facility. Ironically, some Ingham County Board of Commission members wor.ied that, because of the poor economy at that time, the couple could et away with paying "slave wages" to people desperate for work unless the Kozminksi's promised to pay prevailing wages. The operation would have produced 13 million dozen eggs a year, with the Farmer Jack's Markets chain in the Detroit area as its sole or primary customer.

STATE REGULATORY agencies have shut down the Kozminskis' Washtenaw County dairy operation at least nine times in eight years. The operation was recently liquidated and the herd sold at an auction in Lake Odessa. Ike Kozminski, 60, and Margarethe, 54, were arraigned in Detroit Wednesday on one count each of involuntary servitude, and freed on a $50,000 personal bond each. U.S. Magistrate Thomas Carlson ordered the couple to surrender their passports and airline tickets By JEAN MOORE Staff Writer Police and city hall pressure may have corked many of East Lansing's weekend party plans before the first keg is tapped.

This weekend is D-Day, the first test of the city's emergency ordinances aimed at curbing unruly parties. It also is homecoming weekend at Michigan State University, and thousands of revelers are expected to descend on the city. Police say at least one large block party in the works has been cancelled because of city pressure. ANOTHER KIND of pressure from angry residents focused attention on party problems during last week's city council meeting. Residents admonished the council for not stopping the bashes.

The council then adopted three ordinances, effective last Saturday. One broadens the nuisance law and makes violations a misdemeanor punishable by a maximum $500 fine and 90 day in jail. Landlords whose property is used for parties will be assessed damages. A second raises the fine for liquor violations from $5 to $25 and a third allows the city to revoke licenses for repeat offenders. Residents angrily listed familiar complaints noise, damage, injuries, threats, urinating on lawns and partygoers invading homes.
