JAJPUR, India, July 22 — Swollen rivers receded
               further Sunday in flood-hit Orissa, but signs of
               water-borne diseases appeared in the coastal
               Indian state, where muddy water has
               contaminated wells in thousands of villages,
               officials said. Hundreds of people thronged to
               army and civilian doctors for treatment as relief
               workers battled to help more than 500,000 still
               marooned in flooded areas.
