Measurements are reported of the differential cross section for the reaction $pi$$sup -$p $Yields$ $pi$$sup -$p, $pi$$sup 0$n, and etan at three angles close to 180$sup 0$ and for incident momenta in the range 0.6 to 1.0 GeV/c. The three measurements were made simultaneously at 1% intervals of beam momentum. The data on elastic scattering resolve a discrepancy between two earlier experiments. They also show clearly the effect of the opening of the etan channel. The charge-exchange data show that I-spin bounds are not violated in the kinematic region covered. The etan data can be adequately described with known s-channel resonances. No evidence for narrow N*'s is seen in any channel. (AIP)
