Former Sen. Stuart Symington Dies At 87
I LAT-WP NEWS SERVICE
I -
WASHINGTON - W. Stuart Sym-I ington, 87, a Missouri Democrat who 5 served 24 years in the U.S. Senate - before retiring in 1977, died of a j heart ailment Wednesday at his I home in New Canaan, Conn.
I Symington was also the first sec-! retary of the Air Force, serving in j that j^sition from 1947, when the Air { Force became a separate service, to \ 1950. In 1960 he was an unsuccessful \ candidate for the Democratic \ presidential nomination, then was \ mentioned prominently as a vice \ presidential candidate before that } offer went to Lyndon B. Johnson of * -Texas.
In his four Senate terms, Symington was a staunch supporter of military preparedness and an advocate for the development of a large nuclear-equipped Air Force, but he also grew to be a firm opponent of U.S. involvement in the war in Vietnam. ^
As the only senator to serve on both the Armed Services Committee and the Foreign Relations Committee, he was an influential force for de-escalation and withdrawal from ' the Southeast Asian war. He also came to believe that the United States had overextended itself militarily around the world, a situa-' tion he believed dangerous for U.S.
security and damaging to the na-. tions economy.
;, Similarly, although Symington had been a firm supporter of foreign aid during his early Senate vears, he
came to oppose many such measures during the Nixon presidency, arguing that the United States was overcommitted militarily and economically throughout the world.
On domestic issues, Symington supported such measures as gun control, consumer protection, alSor-tion aid, legal services for the poor and a variety of human welfare matters.
A native of Amherst, Mass., where his father was a professor of romance languages at Amherst Colige, Symington grew up in Baltimore and joined the Army during World War I, serving as a second lieutenant at the age of 17.
He graduated from Yale University after the war, then in 1924 married Evelyn Wadsworth, the daughter of a Republican senator from New York. Their wedding was one of the social events of the year in Washington, followed by a reception for 2,000 guests, including President Coolidge. Mrs. Symington died in 1972.
Symington began his business career working as an iron molder at the Symington Company in Rochester, N.Y., a railroad equipment firm controlled by his family.
During World War II, the War Department sent Symington to England to study airplane armaments. Then after the war. President Truman named him head of the Surplus Property Administration, an agency with $13 billion worth of surplus property to dispose of, rang-
Life Expectancy For Blacks Falls, Rises For Whites
LAT-WP .NEWS SERVICE
WASHINGTON - For the first time in this century, the life expectancy of blacks in the United States has declined in two successive years white that for whites has continued to increase, according to a report from the National Center for Health Statistics.
This is serious, said Harry Rosenberg, chief of the centers mortality statistics branch. If you are looking for the big factors, they are homicides and accidents. Recently there has been a tre-moundous increase in homicides among both young whites and Tblacks, Rosenberg said. But it has hit blacks harder, with a 15 percent t increase in homicides among blacks . for 1985 and 1986, compared with a 5 ; percent increase among whites.
I Motor vehicle accidents also hit i. the two populations differently in ; those years, with an 8 percent in-^ crease in deaths among blacks and a 4 percent increase among whites.
I Deaths from AIDS as well as some ^ other infectious diseases, such as pneumonia and tuberculosis, also have increased disproportionately , ,among blacks in recent years.
Some officials attributed part of -the problem to economic policies of I ;the Reagan administration, which :jhey said have increased :;homelessness, cut aid and health ^are to the poor, and otherwise hurt ^blacks disproportionately.
It is the first time since 1%2 that Mife expectancy for any race has ^ Tleclined two years in a row, and the ; flnly time in this century that the life rexpectancy for blacks dropped while f -the figures for whites rose, p. The usual pattern is that when one r.drops, the other drops as well. This

Symington later became secretary of war for air, then Air Force secretary after Congress reorganized the armed forces. In that role he argued that the United States had to act from a position of military superiority against the Soviet Union, and he supported increased defense spending and big-bomber production.
He later served as chairman of the National Security Resources Board, then as Reconstruction Finance Corp. administrator. In 1952 he returned to Missouri to run for the Senate, winning the Democratic primary in August and the general election in November while
Republican Dwight D. Eisenhower carried the state in the presidential race.
He attracted national attention in 1954 in his televised bouts with Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy during the Ar-my-McCarthy hearings. McCarthy called him sanctimonious Stu, while Symington suggested that McCarthy needed to see a psychiatrist.
In 1956 Symington was a favorite son candidate for president. He ran again as a serious candidate in 1960. but eventually withdrew and threw his support to Lyndon Johnson.
Symington declined to run tor a tifth Senate term ml976.
In 1980 he became vice chairman
of First American Bankshares, the holding company for First American Bank. He was president of the .\a tional Cathedral Association t I Ulli 1974 to 1977.
After retiring, Symington married Ann Hemingway Watson. Recently he had lived in New Canaan, where he had worked on his memoirs and played golf.
In addition to his wife, survivors include two sons from his first mar riage, W. Stuart Symington Jr. of St. Louis and James W. Symington, a Washington lawyer who served in the House of Representatives from Missouri from 1%9 to 1977; six grandchildren, and six great-grandchildren.

is because the usual reason for a decrease is a major outbreak of fatal disease that strikes both races.
Life expectancy is a statistical calculation that tells how long the average person may expect to live from birth. It has been increasing steadily as long as the numbers have been kept. For example, the life expectancy in 1900 in the United States was 47.6 years for whites and 33 years for other races.
By 1984, the number had risen to 75.3 years for whites and 69.7 years for blacks. Through 1985 and 1986, the numbers for whites continued to increase to a record of 75.4 years. But for blacks the number slipped to 69.5 in 1985, then to 69.4 in 1986. These are the latest years for which the agency, the federal governments prime collector of health statistics, has calculated life expectancies.
Rosenberg said that the increases in life expectancy among blacks are generally more precarious because there are many causes of death that are not being overcome as rapidly for blc^cks as for whites. Thus it is easier for adverse changes to reverse a slight upward trend.
The last time that life expectancies went down was from 1979 to 1980, when a severe influenza epidemic lowered the figure for both races.
The reason a life expectancy goes up and down is generally that death rates go up and down, Rosenberg said. Fortunately, the death rates have gone down steadily with some exceptions for many years. The exceptions are things such as the major Influenza epidemics and other periodic catastrophic health events.

Early Holidays Were Different
By Frances Grandy Taylor
LAT-WP NEWS SERVICE
The Christmas-card folks would like us to think that colonial Christmas in New England was a time of sleigh rides, celebration, warm family gatherings by the hearth and peace on Earth.
But the fact is the Puritans hated Christmas. They disliked it so much that at one point it was illegal to celebrate the holiday in colonial Massachusetts.
So much for nostalgia.
Christmas in early America was quite different from the holiday we know today, according to Stephen Nissenbaum, professor of history at the University of Massachusetts. The settlers had never heard of Santa Claus, either.
The Puritans were very down on Christmas," Nissenbaum said. They were Bible literalists, and they quite accurately said that nowhere in the Bible is Uie date of Christs birth mentioned, and there was no reason to think that it is on Dec. 25.
The Puritans and their Congrega-tionalist descendants also were bothered by the boisterous street revelry that lasted for several weeks, which was the way the holiday was celebrated back home in England, said Nissenbaum, who has made a hobby of studying the social history of the origins of Christmas.
Christmas, for hundreds of years, until the 19th century, meant the whole Christmas season, probably from the end of November through to New Years, he said. It was a period of general rowdiness. It involved a lot of reveling.
Christmas was the one season of the year when the poor felt they had a right to enter the houses of the wealthy and demand things from them, Nissenbaum said.
In England, the notion of wassailing didnt only mean kids going around singing sweet Christmas carols. It came to mean that much later. What it really meant was the poor going to the houses of the wealthy and saying, Give us something.
I feel they were also against it because it was a time of social disorder and rowdiness, and that as much as anything else was the reason for their (Puritans) feelings toward it, Nissenbaum said. And if that were not enough, the holiday also has it roots in pagan practices that marked the end of the year.
In the pre-Christian era, It was a season that marked the completion point in the year for an agricultural society, the time of the winter solstice. The harvest was in. It was a period of minimal work. There was meat and food that had to be consumed before it spoiled, and it was just a time of celebration, Nissenbaum said.
Centuries later, the Catholic church seems to have assimilated the pagan practices by giving those early rituals a Christian significance, he said.

Holiday Newsletters Show Bad Taste
St. Nicholas came to be associated with the Christmas season because St. Nicholas Day was Dec. 6. He was a bishop known for his generosity, who lived during the 4th century in Asia Minor. About 800 years after his death, he became a cult figure in Europe, Nissenbaum said. St. Nicholas has more churches named after him than any other saint in Europe.
The anti-Christmas feeling in America began to fade by the early 19th century. New traditions such as decorating Christmas trees and hanging stockings were added as Irish and German immigrants arrived.
The evolution of Santa Claus also was beginning to take shape.
A little book called The Childrens Friend, published in New York in 1821, is believed to be the first to depict Santa Claus in a slei^i drawn by a single reindeer. He was slim and didnt look much like the contemporary Santa Claus, but no matter.
Another big event came the next year, in 1822, with the publication of the Rev. Clement Clarke Moores K)em, A Visit From St. Nicholas, )etter known as The Night Before Christmas, which he wrote for his children.
Nissenbaum says Moores poem is the first thing I know of that turns St. Nicholas into a working-class figure. Up until then, hes kind of a childrens saint. His style of dress, in the first illustrated edition, more closely resembles those of a peddler, he said. He did not look like what he has become, Nissenbaum said.
But Moore was among a group of wealthy Episcopalians in New York who had larger goals in mind than a childrens story, Nissenbaum said. They reinvented this old tradition of Christmas and changed it. Moores poem takes place on Christmas Eve. Before that, Christmas was all over the place. They also transformed a big public occasion of rowdiness that lasted a month into a domestic and peaceful private event within the family, Nissenbaum said.
He believes these New Yorkers were trying to address the problems around them in New York City, which was the most rapidly urbanizing place in the country.
New York was filled with riots of all kinds. They started a movement to take a thing that was on the streets and put it in the home, to take something that lasted a month and have it last just one day, he said. It was a lighthearted expression of something much more serious.
Nissenbaum said the role of social history in holiday customs is something that is often overlooked.
These are the kind of things not always looked at by historians of Christmas, who are much more interested in the rituals of the holiday, he said.
Im trying to explain the social reasons as to how the holiday has evolved the way it did.

Greetings, Christmas revelers. Once again its time to salute the winners of the Christmas Newsletter Barf-Off Competition.
Judging from the bumper crop of entries sent in 1988, most of you know the rules. These newsletters must be cranked out by the thousands, sent to people who barely know you, and report on events that have nothing whatsoever to do with the spirit of Christmas. They cannot be personalized in any way.
Each year, I think bad taste cannot be topped. Each year, I am wrong. Its hard to believe these are the runners-up:
An entry that rambled on for a page, ending in, Were eager to hear your news, was sent to a couple who were not only deceased, but the senders had attended their funerals. (You cant get decent help to address labels anymore.)
A two-pager describing intricate details of a couples memo-
At Wits End
Erma Bombeck
rabie 16,^-kilometer trip through Europe. CAUTION; Do not read while driving a car, as drowsiness ensues.
- And the longest entry, five computer pages on 9-by-15-inch paper, on how the author felt about life. He was for it.
But enough teasing. The third-place winner is a woman who gets right to it - the accomplishments of her four kids. No happy holidays or small talk. She lists each of their names and, underneath, their accomplishments. Of particular interest, under her eldest daughter; has dated 10 outstanding boys; has five boyfriends now, one who calls her two or three times a day and lets her drive his Mercedes any time she wants and is a Methodist. (She in
cluded a copy of a yearbook page with her daughters boyfriends circled.)
Second place goes to a dog who nips on a rum cake while he is writing the newsletter and in the last paragraph says, We really hope that you will enjoy a proshperous and shuper New Year and all that shtuff! and P.S. Id really like to apologish for whaj Pransher and Dansher did to your roof last year. Theres nothing like a drunken dog to get you into a festive mood.
This years first-place winner wasnt even a close call. For sheer holiday sentiment, no one topped the details of the birth of a son, who, according to this newsletter, came by C-section with Dwayne and camera at hand. He was posterior (the baby, not Dwayne) and stuck on my cyatic (sic) nerve giving me incredible back labor. Lamaze never prepar^ us for that. Dwayne found the birthing quite an experience.
When the couple went on vacation, they shared, I pumped for two weeks in advance and froze my milk. Dwayne brought home this rented breast pump and announced that I was now a member of the Dairy Association. The pump weighed 50 pounds. I felt like mooinjg.
One woman who was critical of my stand on newsletters atoomsh-ed, Couldnt you have a bake^iff for the best well-done newsletter?
No. . ,
Send in your Barf-Off entnes for next years competition. Remember, if you really want to know how good your life is ... read your own

Spending
(Continued from page C-1)
ter says.
Credit card issuers and marketers have recognized the problem of overspending and are doing something about it. Both Visa and MasterCard, for example, provide enhanced electronic systems enabling merchants to check consumers credit worthiness and reduce fraud.
Issuers also are raising credit card fees and keeping interest rates high to recoup losses. *
Bankruptcies are the single biggest reason why bank card rates have not come down, and they will be the largest contributing factor to higher interest, annual fees and elimination of grace periods in the future, the Nilson Report says. Nearly 75 percent of the average annual bank card fee of $18.50 goes to cover losses from bankruptcies, die newsletter says.
Wendy Johnson, the Los Angeles woman with 35 cards, worked as a real estate loan officer, where she saw how poor credit limited the ability of others to buy homes.
When 1 was little, I would get eight gifts from my grandmother alone, Johnson, now 29, recalls. I thought that was what you wer^upposed to do give a lot of ^ts each year. We thought this was how you show love for olegive them gifts. added that she often would ;buy gifts for people to be ac-cepted better socially, and buying with her credit cards made it easy. Anything anybody desperately needed,'! didnt see any price tag, she says.
Her overspending got so bad that for a while she was getting as many as 10 calls a day from creditors seeking payment. There was a point when I was afraid to answer the phone at home and at work, she says. The calls started as early as 7 a.m. and didnt stop until as late as 11 p.m. It got to the point where I didnt want to come home, she says.
* Finally, as an alternative to bankruptcy, she visited Consumer Credit Counselors of Los Angeles, a non-profit agency that helps work out repayment plans for overextended consumers. As part of the plan devised for her, Johnson cut up and disposed of all but one of her credit cards. Now she eats out much less often and limits her expensive vacations to one a year. She says she used to just pick up once a month or so and go rent a hotel room at the beach in Puerto Rico or in Florida or fly to see a girlfriend in Pittsburgh for the weekend.

Amateur Astronomers Tracked Spy Satellite
By Soil Sussman
THE ASSOCIATED PKESS
TORONTO - Amateur astronomers using home computers and high-powered binoculars were able to track the U.S. space shuttle \ Atlantis as it deployed a secret spy satellite.
If we could figure it out, you could bet that the Russians figur it out too, says Ted Molczan, a selfdescribed space enthusiast who helped organize the tracking.
Although he said the information gathered had little practical use, the project showed secrecy is a rare
commodity in the sky.
In Washington, David Garrett of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration said, We dont comment on secret satellite launches.
Molczan, 35, said in a recent interview that the satellite watchers are hobbyists who work together informally, trading information through telephone calls, letters and electronic mail.
The secrecy of the Atlantis early December mission made their research challenging and intriguing detective work, Molczan said.
As space enthusiasts, for us to see the space shuttle is a very ex
citing thing, he said, adding that he was thrilled by the rare prospect the shuttle would be visible over Canadian skies.
Shuttle orbits generally are farther south.
Molczan is an engineering technologist who specializes in energy conservation. His interest in space is visible in his sparsely furnished 23rd floor apartment; a com-)uter and charts lie on his desk, )ooks on the subject cram a bookcase and high-power binoculars sit on a stand near the door.
The binoculars, said Molczan, are more useful than telescopes for satellite watching because they are eas
ier to point and have a wider field of view.
Molczan had been in contact with about 150 other satellite watchers from as far away as Australia about the Atlantis probable orbit. He circulated information including a test yourself page to make sure all participants could handle the necessary calculations.
The Toronto skies were cloudy on Dec. 2, the day of the Atlantis launch, and Molczan was unable to see it passing over. Others did, and the calls started coming in while the craft was on its sixth orbit in the late afternoon.
There were two sightings from the
Toronto region and one from Ashtabula, Ohio.
To get three confirmations like that in the space of half an hour was very exciting, Molczan said. We had more than a dozen people in this area looking for it.
Knowing the times of the sightings allowed him to calclate the height of the orbiL and, with the computer, he quickly was able to determine where the shuttle could be seen for the rest of the mission.
Molczan s.' d the watchers sighted only the At tis on the sixth revolution, and tl atellite was sighted by the seventl voiution three miles ahead of . Continued sightings
showed that for two days the shuttle stayed close to the satellite, which was observed to have a reddish color.
He said it was very satisfying to determine that the satellite, known as Lacrosse, was deployed on the shuttles first day in orbit. The news media was speculating that it would be released on the second day,
The mission went the way we hypothesized it would, Molczan said.
His own glimpse did not come until the 37th revolution, about halfway through the four-day mission.

Space Industry Has First Sales Drop In 17 Years
By Harry F. Rosenthal
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON - Aerospace employment declined by 21,000 jobs in 1988 as the industry recorded its first annual sales drop in 17 years, accor^ng to the Aerospace Industries Association.
The reason is a substantial decrease in sales to the Department of Defense, hardly a surprise in view of the zero-to-negative-growth defense budgets of the last four fiscal years, the associations president, Don Fuqua, said Wednesday^
Overall sales volume was projected to reach $111 billion for 1988, a reduction of slightly more than $1 billion from last year.
An analysis of orders on hand indicates a defense sales rebound in 1969
Moonshiners Sugar Brings Holiday Joy
ROANOKE, Va. (AP) - Chefs at an orphanage are cooking up visions of dancing sugarplums after learning they will get two tons of sugar seized in a federal moonshine raid.
Well go through this sugar rather quickly, said Bobby Cobbs of Virginia Baptist Childrens Home and Family Services, adding that orphanage workers planned to pick up the 4,400 pounds of Dixie Crystal sugar today.
Weve been doing a lot of dreaming, figuring out what we can do with it.
The sugar, along with moon-shining apparatus that included
576 plastic one-gallon jugs, was seized in September when agents broke up an alleged Franklin County moonshine operation.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Karen Peters filed a motion in federal court Monday asking that the government give the sugar to the orphanage in Salem.
Judge James C. Turk agreed in an order filed Wednesday. The order also allows the government to use the sugar as evidence when defendants William Gray Stanley, Ricky Lee Dent and Michael Keith Crook stand trial Jan. 18 on charges they ran a still and possessed mash and untaxed liquor.
The sugar would have gone to waste had it been stored as the case worked its way through the courts, said Jim Silvey, a Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms agent.
What weve done in the past is dispose of it in the federal penitentiaries, but the closest one is in West Virginia, Silvey said. We figured if the moonshine was in Virginia, we could use it here.
Moonshining has been a problem in Franklin County for years, and federal and state agents hoped that by monitoring large sugar sales, they would be able to take a larger dent out of the illegal industry.
Cobbs said the orphanage, which receives funds from Baptist churches, other private sources and the government, has 72 children. About 10 or 20 of the children ranging from ages 5 to 18 will stay at the center during the Christmas holidays while others visit relatives once school is out.
Orphanage chefs will use the sugar to make extra holiday sweets for the kids, with plenty of sugar left over for day-to-day use, Cobbs said. The sugar is valued at about $1,500 and will bolster to the orphanages annual food budget of $106,000, he said.
but we look for further substantial declines as we move into the early years of the 1990s, Fuqua said. The sales projection for next year is for $129 billion but our real, inflation-adjusted sales curve for the next few years
will be relatively flat, according to Fuqua.
Statistics released by the association said the number of jobs in the aerospace industry will drop to 1,307,000 for the year and that there will 14,000 fewer jobs still in 1989.
We did not set a new record for sales ... for the first time in 17 years, Fuqua said.
Still, industry profits were expected to improve to $5.1 billion, and the backlog of unfilled orders to reach an all-time high of $170.3 billion, the association said.
An increase in civil aerospace business, Fuqua said, will offset the military decline.
We must face this fact, Fuqua said at the joint AIA and Aviation-Space Writers Association luncheon. %e Bush administration and the new Congress must continue to accord top priority to further reduction in the national budget deficit.
So, barring an unexpected change in the international climate, we must realistically anticipate lower levels of defense appropriations and therefore reduced industry sales of defense equipment.
Fuqua said American industry is severely handicapped in international competition by trade restrictions imposed by its own government. He called the governments role purely administrative and often obstructive when it should be an active supporter of U.S. exports.
He announced creation of a foundation to be called the National Center for Advanced Technology, which will pull together everything being done in technology and create a data base for companies and agencies taking part.
Bush Nominates Trade Rep Yeutter To Be His Secretary Of Agriculture

Jurors Convict Whiz Kid Carpet Cleaner Of Fraud
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES - Fallen whiz kid Barry Minkow listened grimly as a jury announced guilty 57 times on fraud charges in a $25 million swindle that snared Wall Street brokerages, major banks and small investors.
The 22-year-old defendant, who launched his ZZZZ Best carpet cleaning business in his parents garage at age 16, had been trying to make a plea bargain only hours before the U.S. District Court jury convicted him on all counts of securities, credit card and mail fraud charges.
The jury rejected Minkows claim that he was a frightened young boy forced by mobsters into a life of crime, and accepted the prosecutions portrayal of him as a shrewd young con man with a thirst for money, power and fame.
] Minkow could be sentenced to up to 300 years in prison. Judge Dickran Tevrizian set sentencing for Feb. 21.
Minkows attorney, David Kenner, said he would appeal the conviction, noting that Tevrizian- severely limited evidence on Minkows claims of mob pressure.
The jury was to resume deliberations today on five charges against Minkows co-defendant, accountant Norman Rothberg, who is accused of taking a bribe to cover up ZZZZ Bests frauds.
Minkow, sensing he would be convicted, had agreed to plead guilty to about 15 percent of the charges, Kenner said outside court Wednes-day.
But AssistantU.S. Attorney James Asperger said no final agreement was reached.
The jury, which reached its verdict after five days of deliberations, made such discussions moot.
It took 40 minutes to read the decision. Minkow fidgeted occasionally, and reached over once to clasp Kenners hand.
The attorney said Minkow was remorseful and regretted what had happened.
I think hes learned lessons from this, Kenner said. Barry never wanted anything more than to build ZZZZ Best into the General Motors

of carpet cleaning.... He clearly was involved with a company that was infiltrated by organized crime.
I was just a front man for the mob, Minkow had insisted on the witness stand. I was just a puppet.
The youthful defendant told of constant beatings and threats from mobsters, loan sharks and thugs, but there was little corroborating evidence.
A duress defense is difficult to establish because threats by their very nature are communicated privately, Kenner said.
In two weeks on the stand during the four-month trial, Minkow admitted defrauding numerous investors as well as talk show hosts who hailed him as a teen-age genius of the finance world.
He admitted making romantic overtures to a woman banker to obtain her approval on a loan; she testified that she lost her job because of him. He told of bouncing checks, issuing false credit card charges and arranging investor
tours of restoration projects that didnt exist.
Dozens of victims who lost money in Minkows frauds testified.
After starting his business, Minkow had claimed ZZZZ Best was making a fortune restoring fire- and water-damaged buildings when no such jobs were done.
He sold investors on a business that for the most part did not exist, Asperger told jurors.
Soon, he was a familiar face in TV advertisements and on talk shows. He wrote a book about his success and took Wall Street by storm when ZZZZ Best went public in 1986.
But the company quickly collapsed in scandal. Minkow claimed its demise was caused by mobsters, including the late Jack Catain, who turned the business into a swindle.
Barry has expressed to me the remorse he has for having been in that situation and his desire to become a meaningful member of society, Kenner told reporters.
Barry is a young man, said Kenner. I would hope Barry would still be a young man when he is released.
Chicago Mercantile Exchange and served in the Department of Agriculture and as deputy trade representative in the Ford administration.
Reagan appointed him U.S. trade representative in July 1985. Yeutter had wanted to leave government but said Wednesday that he acceded to (Bushs) appeal and agreed to stay, after the two men met privately in the morning.
Bush, who has promised to bring wholesale change to the government, acknowledged that he was instead, as a reporter put it, shuffling around Reagan officials. Yeutter joins a group of Reagan holdovers that includes former Secretary of Treasury James A. Baker III, current Secretary of the Treasury Nicholas Brady, Attorney General Richard Thornburgh, Secretary of Education Lauro Cavazos and CIA chief William H. Webster.
In a news conference. Bush breezed through a number of topics in a chatty and seemingly relaxed manner. He:
-Saluted Soviet President Mikhail S. Gorbachevs plan to demobilize half a million Soviet troops but said that its too early to give a full analysis of whether the move would encourage or discourage stability in Europe.
Promised to work vigorously toward further arms reduction pacts with the Soviets but said there is no way his administration would have a detailed point-by-point program
on arms talks by mid-February, when the Reagan administration has proposed resuming arms negotiations with the Soviets.
I am interested in progress, but I want it to be prudent, Bush said. I welcome the flexibility and innovative steps that Mr. Gorbachev has taken, but he understands that we are not going to rush in to some proposal, just to be hitting his bid.
Said that he would be surprised if the FBI turned up anything in its unusually lengthy investigation of former Texas Sen. John Tower that would preclude his selection as secretary of defense.
The FBIs investigation is virtually complete and Tower met Wednesday with C. Boyden Gray, counsel for the Bush transition team, according to transition team co-direc-tor Craig L. Fuller. Fuller, speaking to reporters Wednesday morning, praised Tower for going through several weeks of semi-public exami
nation of his lobbying connections with several defense firms and of allegations of womanizing.
Fuller said that he knew of nothing that the FBI had found out so far that would make (Tower) unable to be nominated or confirmed, but that less-than-ringing endorsement was as far as he would go. I would expect by the end of this week we wi 1 have reached a final conclusion about whether we can go forward with final recommendations to the vice president on defense, Fuller said.

Kremlin Says Gorbachev Wants To See Bush Early
Fiber-Optic Network Linking the World
By Michael Dobbs
LAT-WP NEWS SERVICE
MOSCOW - Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev hopes to arrange his first formal summit meeting with President-elect George Bush in the first half of next year in the United States, according to a senior Kremlin aide.
The eagerness to hold an early summit with the new U.S. president reflects Soviet satisfaction with the results of Gorbachevs visit to New York last week. Although the visit had to be cut short because of the Armenian earthquake, the Soviet president scored a public relations triumph by promising to cut back the Soviet armed forces by half a million men.
The Soviet official said Gorbachev hopes to reschedule the rest of his truncated tour to Cuba and Great Britain for January. Before flying back to Moscow last Thursday, the Soviet president informed Cuban and British leaders that he was simply postponing the rest of his tour, not canceling it.
Soviet foreign-policy strategists from Gorbachev down have made clear their wish to avoid any interruption in the U.S.-Soviet dialogue as a result of the change of administration in Washington. At the same time, however, they do not want to give the impression that Moscow is trying to pressure Bush into making hasty decisions on relations between the superpowers.
A Soviet official who was in New York last week said that Gorbachevs meeting with Reagan and Bush went extremely well. He said that the Soviet leader did not try to extract specific commitments on U.S.-Sovit relations from the president-elect.
The official said that Gorbachev would sum up his impressions of his New York visit in a major address to a teachers congress in Moscow ear-, ly next week. He predicted that Gorbachev would also use the occasion to draw lessons from the devastating earthquake in Armenia.
In the view of Western analysts here, the Soviet approach to the New York meeting displayed considerable sophistication about the way American politics works. Rather than trying to nail Bush down on specifics, Gorbachev made skillful use of the American media to encourage the incoming U.S. administration to focus on relations with Moscow from an early date.
According to diplomatic protocol, Gorbachevs two-day stay in New York last week was considered part
of his official visit to the United Nations. Soviet and U.S. officials have agreed that it should not be regarded as a Soviet response to President Reagans trip to Moscow last May.
Acknowledging that it was now the Soviet presidents turn to visit the United States, the senior Soviet official said he saw no reason why Gorbachevs first summit with Bush should be held in a third country. The first two meetings between Reagan and Gorbachev took place on neutral ground: in Geneva in November 1985 and in Reykjavik in October 1986.
These summits should be quite normal meetings that take place alternately in each others country, the official said.
The official added that preliminary work at the foreign ministers level is still necessary before a specific date for a Gorbachev-Bush meeting could be fixed. He said he expects the talks to cover both strategic disarmament, picking up on proposals for a 50 percent cut in nuclear weapons, and conventional disarmament.
The rescheduling of Gorbachevs visit to Cuba and Britain involves a minor logistical and protocol problem. A Soviet leader would normally be expected to visit a Soviet ally such as Cuba before traveling on to a Western country such as Britain. Unfavorable wind patterns, howev
er, make it impossible for Gorbachevs plane to fly nonstop from Moscow to Havana, though the reverse trip is apparently feasible.
Soviet protocol experts managed to overcome this problem last month by having Gorbachev visit the United Nations on his way to Cuba and then Britain. They are now faced with the choice of either finding another "neutral stopover between Moscow and Havana or persuading Cuban leader Fidel Castro not to take offense should Gorbachev decide to visit London first.
In the meantime, a senior Soviet military official has joined in the chorus of approval here for Gorbachevs announcement of a 10 percent cut in the Soviet armed forces. Writing in the weekly Moscow News published Wednesday, the deputy chief of the Soviet General Staff described it as "an extremely important step, both for the army and the civilian economy.
In two to three years, the country will benefit from the return of this money and these resources from the military sector to ordinary life, wrote Gen. Vladimir Lobov.
Lobov said that he, along with other Soviet officers, had been trained to assume that increases in the size of the Soviet Unions standing army and stockpile of weapons automatically increase the security of the country.

The cable opened Wednesday extends 4,188 miles from New Jersey to Great Britain and France. The cable is laid by ships using precise maps of the ocean floor and a satellite location system that helps them determine their location within 100 ft.
High-speed pulses of light generated by tiny lasers carry voice, data and video information through the glass fibers. To protect against damage, the cable is buried a yard beneath the ocean floor to a depth of about 3,000 feet. To protect against shark bites, it is steel-clad to a depth of 8,500 feet.

Fiber-Optic Cable Working Under Atlantic
By Peter Coy
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK With a few words from prolific science fiction author Isaac Asimov, the voyage of laser beams through a shark-proof underwater fiber-optic cable began a new era of trans-Atlantic communications.
The cable, thinner than a childs wrist, went into service Wednesday and can carry 40,000 phone calls between the United States and Europe simultaneously, double the capacity of its trans-Atlantic copper-cable predecessors combined.
Asimov, author of more than 400 books of science fiction, spoke the first official words on the cable in a three-way video conference connecting New York, London and Paris.
Welcome, everybody, to this historic trans-Atlantic crossing - this maiden voyage across the sea on a beam of light, Asimov said at 10:30 a.m. EST, his voice instantly flashed as coded pulses of laser light through the more than 3,500 miles of cable.

munications, the partners in the $361 million project expect the fiber-optic cable to start running out of room by late 1991. Thats when a new^ cable with even greater capacity will go into service.
Fiber-optic service to Japan and the Far East will begin next spring, and other undersea fiber links will reach to the Caribbean and the Mediterranean by the early 1990s.
AT&T said 1988 would be the first year the company handled more than 1 billion calls into and out of the United States.
For residential customers, the new cable, called the TAT-8, will mean a continued decline in the price of trans-Atlantic calls. For businesses, it will mean lower rates and greater capacity for the huge volume of computer data they transmit, especially in areas of finance, travel and tourism.
Ordinary television broadcasts still will be carried by satellite because they would take up too much room on the cable. But the cables builders expect it to be used for video conferences between offices, with the signals compressed to take up less room.
Lasers have revolutionized phone networks by making it possible to transmit information in the form of rapid pulses of laser light through hair-thin strands of glass known as optical fibers. The lasers transmit information in digital form.
Most long-distance calls within the United States already are carried on optical fibers.
The new cable contains six strands of glass, and two of them are spares. The cable measures 0.8 inch across, except for the sections that are reinforced to guard against shark bites, which are 1.3 inches across.
The first undersea phone cable between the United States and Europe, TAT-1, was built in 1956 and could handle 36 simultaneous calls. During its 22 years, it handled 10 million calls. TAT-8 can handle that many calls in less than two days.
American Telephone & Telegraph Co. owns 34.1 percent of TAT-8, British Telecom 15.5 percent and France Telecom 9.8 percent. The companies sent cable-laying ships to share in the effort. The rest of TAT-8 is owned by 27 other telecommunications administrations
and companies.
The cable touches ground in North America at Tuckerton, N.J.; in the United Kingdom at Widemouth in North Cornwall; and in France at Penmarch in Brittany. It is buried a yard , beneath the ocean floor to a depth of about 3,000 feet so it will not be snagged by fishing vessels. It is clad in steel to a depth of 8,500 feet to protect against shark bites.
In October 1985, nobody gave a thought to sharks when AT&T and the Spanish telephone ; company Telefonica laid the worlds first | non-experimental undersea optichl fiber cable in the Canary Islands.
Much to the companies dismay, sharks at-' tacked the cable, biting through its power conductor and leaving at least 50 teeth ; embedded in its polyethylene coating. J;
Although it was troubling at the time, the;' experience taught AT&T how to guard against ^ shark attacks on.the new cable.
It was a blessing in disguise, said James I M. Barrett, deputy director of international I engineering at AT&T in Morristown, N.J., last> year. '
East Germans Relaxing Travel Rules For West
Swede Charged In Palme Assassination
By Robert J. McCartney
LAT-WF NEWS SERVICE
BONN, West Germany - East Germany officially relaxed restrictions on travel and emigration to the West Wednesday and established what appeared to be important new procedural guarantees for citizens who apply to leave.
A decree published in state-controlled newspapers broadened the rules that govern when a citizen is permitted to visit the West for urgent family business. It said, for instance, that citizens now may travel to the West to attend the funeral of an aunt, uncle or in-law.
Previously the law provided only for such a visit in case of the death of a sibling, parent or other immediate family member.
The decree, the first formal revision of travel and emigration rules since 1982, also spelled out humanitarian grounds for emigration. But it provided a number of reasons for denying applications to emigrate. These included broadly worded provisions saying emigration could be barred if the nations security, economy or public order were likely to be damaged by a persons departure.
The decrees most important provision may be that authorities must inform citizens, in writing and within specified deadlines, whether their applications to travel or emigrate have been approved. The authorities must provide a reason if the application is rejected, and the citizen then has a right to appeal, the decree said.
The decree, which takes effect Jan. 1, marks the the first time since East Germany was founded in 1949 that such procedural guarantees have been granted. Hundreds of thousands of citizens have never received answers to their formal applications to travel or emigrate.
The West German government and Western diplomats welcomed the decree but reserved final judgment while waiting to see how fully the new laws a|e implemented.
Dorothee Wilms, minister for Inner-German Relations, said the new regulations offer a bit more calculability. But she criticized the decree for merely outlining circumstances under which a citizen "can travel or emigrate, instead of specifically guaranteeing a right to do so.
The decree was not expected to lead to a substantial increase in numbers of travelers or emigrants to the West, the sources said. Instead. it put into law a relaxation of travel policy in effect informally since early 1986.
The number of East German travelers to the West has jumped dramatically in the last 2':; years with 5 million visits to West Germany this year and the number of emigrants has risen sharply this year.
The East German government took the action in response to heavy pressure from within the country and from West Germany.
Restrictions on travel, symbolized and enforced by the concrete and barbed wire of the Berlin Wall, are by far the largest single cause of popular discontent in East Germany. A large percentage of the nations 16.5 million citizens have relatives in West Germany, and the combination of legal restrictions and the lack of hard currency make family visits difficult.
East Germanys Protestant churches, which provide the only forum accepted by the government for criticism of its policies, repeatedly have called for uniform, legally enforceable procedures for travel and emigration applications.
The Bonn government also has made improvements in travel and emigration policy a top priority in its relationship with East Berlin.
The Communist Party's official daily, Neues Deutschland, said in an editorial that the new. far-reaching rules represented *a significant act o^go^wiliji
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
STOCKHOLM, Sweden - Police say they have arrested a Swede with a long record of violent crime on suspicion of killing Prime Minister Olof Palme.
The booking of the 41-year-old suspect raises hopes of solving the mystery that has traumatized Sweden since the well-loved leader was shot as he walked home with his wife from a late-night movie Feb. 28, 1986,
Prosecutors said the man, whose name was withheld under standard regulations, has denied assassinating Palme.
He was arrested Wednesday and. after a full day of questioning, was booked "on suspicion of having committed the murder. Deputy
Prosecutor-General Axel Morath told reporters.
Police officials said prosecutors should announce their next step later today.
There is reason to believe it will be a difficult case, said Arne Lil-jefors, the lawyer assigned to defend the suspect.
He is the first person arrested on suspicion of being the mysterious gunman dubbed the Grand Man, who followed Palme for several hundred feet after he left the Grand Theater and then shot him.
The national news agency TT said witnesses identified the suspect in a lineup as the Grand Man, apparently a key factor in the decision to arrest him formally.
Investigators have been sharply criticized by several government in
quiry commissions lor misnandling the manhunt and squabbling among themselves. The chief detective in the case has been replaced twice.
The polices inability to find the murderer has created a national trauma in our country ... and undermined the citizens faith in the legal system, the Aftonbladet daily said today.
If the murder of Olof Palme isn't cleared up it will remain like a sickness in Swedish society ... That's why a lot of people hope the suspect arrested Wednesday really is the killer, it said in an editorial.
Palme was a four-term prime minister of this neutral nation and a leader of the world disarmament movement.
Investigators refused to officially release information on the suspect, but Swedish police reporters were
given access to his record. Reports said he has 63 convictions and has spent the last 22 years in and out of prisons or psychiatric wards for dangerous criminals.
The man was convicted of stabbing an alleged drug addict to death with a bayonet in 1970 just a few yards from where Palme was shot 16 years later.
Police offered no possible motive, but news reports said the suspect has spoken in a hostile and threatening manner about Palme in the past.
The initial inquiry focused on a political motive. Ousted Iranian President Abolhassan Bani-Sadr claimed Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini ordered Palmes slaying when the prime minister discovered and stopped a Swedish companys illegal arms shipments to Tehran.

Kidnap Charges
FAYETTEVILLE (AP) - Two Cumberland County men are being held in in the Dillon, S.C., County Jail for allegedly kidnapping and robbing 10 men at a community clubhouse, authorities said. A third man is being held on a charge of being an accessory after the fact of a felony.
Arrested on 10 counts of kidnapping and armed robbery were Donald Jasper Hemmingway, 29, of Spring Lake, and Reece Gene Lewis, 35, of Fayetteville. Robert William Morrow, 48, also of Fayetteville, is accused of being an accessory.
Dillon County Sheriff Harold Grice said Morrow allegedly drove Lewis and Hemmingway to the clubhouse near the Lake View community early Sunday where a group of people were planning a card game and dinner. The sheriff said Lewis and Hemmingway broke into the clubhouse and waited for the people to start arriving.
As each of the 10 men attending the party arrived at the club, Grice said, they were taken prisoners and their hands and feet tapkl.

Family Affair
WADESBORO, N.C. (AP) - Two automobile accidents happened to members of a Wadesboro family Tuesday, demolishing a house and sending two of the family members to the hospital, Wadesboro police said.
Ruby Simon, 72, was taken to Anson County Hospital after a tractor-trailer truck and crashed into her house. Mrs. Simon was in a back room at the time and was not seriously injured.
The driver of the truck, Harlee Jordan of Wilmington, told police he swerved to avoid hitting a car, struck a parked car then slammj^ into the front of the house.
Earlier in the day, Mrs. Simons son, 35-year-old Edward Thomas Simon Sr. of Wadesboro, was struck by a car while directing traffic in front of Wadesboro Middle School.
Simon was struck by a car driven by Lillian Turner, 57, of Wadesboro. He was taken to Anson County Hospital and was treated and released. Ms. Turner was charged with failure to obey a traffic officer.
Hunting Toll
RALEIGH (AP) Two people have died and 13 others have been injured in hunting-related accidents in North Carolina this year, state wildlife officials said Wednesday.
A Pamlico County youth was walking through a field while deer hunting when he was shot and killed by another hunter. The shooter told officers he thought the youth was a deer. He has been charged with manslaughter.
A Rowan County youth was killed when the gun of another dove hunter discharged as the hunter slipped into a ditch. Of the 13 injuries reported so far this year, four came from falling tree stands, four during dove hunting, four during deer hunting and one was self-inflicted.
Smith Practice
RALEIGH (AP) - Judge Donald L. Smith of the state Court of Appeals says he will go into private practice with the states largest law firm, after a recount of the November election returns confirmed that he had been defeated.
The Raleigh Republican was defeated by special Superior Court Judge John B. Jack Lewis Jr. of Farmville, the Democratic nominee. The two were vying to complete an unexpired term to which Judge Smith was appointed in January by Gov. James G. Martin.
In the recount. Judge Lewis had 983,840 votes, or 50.4 percent, to Judge Smiths 969,885, or 49.6 percent.
Smith, who was a Superior Court judge for 15 years by appointment of both Republican and Democratic governors, said he would join the firm of Womble, Carlyle, Sandridge and Rice later this month or in early January.
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
RALEIGH Drivers license offices in North Carolina offer inadequate service because of long lines, a lack of offices and computers, and bureaucratic delays, a state panel says.
The lack of clearly defined operational standards lies at the heart of almost every problem we have identified, says a report by the Governors Task Force on the North Carolina Drivers License System.
The absence of such standards /has resulted in insufficient office locations, outdated physical facili
ties, long lines in urban areas and inadequate service in our most rural counties, the report says.
The task force proposed sweeping changes in the system, including more offices, later office hours and extension of the license renewal period for many drivers from four to six years.
The report recommends extending business hours past 5 p.m. to improve access for working people and the opening of 40 additional drivers license offices.
The six-year renewals would affect about 865,000 drivers and would reduce demands on license offices, officials said.
The study, completed Sept. 1, was released at the request of The News and Observer of Raleigh.
On Tuesday, Motor Vehicles Commissioner William Hiatt denied that the administration of Gov. Jim Martin had withheld the report until after last months election because of its criticism.
I dont think there was any suppression of information..., Hiatt said. When we presented this to the governor in mid-September, the governor was in the middle of a very tough (re-election) campaign, and I could see why he would not want to add something else on his plate.
Sex Education Plan Proposed
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
RALEIGH Public school children in North Carolina would learn about birth control from the sixth grade through graduation under a proposal by a legislative study committee looking for ways to curb teen pregnancy.
The Adolescent Pregnancy Study Commission directed its counsel Wednesday to draft legislation mandating a uniform health-education plan focusing on reproductive health, family life and pregnancy prevention.
The plan would mirror South Carolinas sex-education program, which stresses abstinence but teaches students in grades 6-12 about the risks and benefits of different types of birth control.
The commission will meet again Jan. 4 to take a final vote on the proposed legislation, which would be introduced in the 1989 General Assembly.
Rep. Marie Colton, D-Buncombe, said patterning North Carolinas sex-education plan after its southern neighbor might make it more palatable to teach children about contraception in a state where sex education is often debated as a moral issue.
I think South Carolina in so many ways has a population like ours, Colton said. The Greensboro News & Record reported. We are taking care of some of the population that has objections to this kind of legislation. It sounds specific, but is not objectionable.
According to the standard course of study in North Carolinas required curriculum, fifth graders learn about physical, mental and emotional maturation; puberty; and the human reproductive system. Sixth graders learn about masculinity and femininity.
Throughout the middle and high school grades, students learn about rearing children, sexual attitudes, dating and other relationships.
A study commission report criticizes North Carolinas current sex-education curriculum as too vague, varying among school districts and going largely unmonitored by state officials.
The available evidence shows a picture of spotty coverage of important topics across the state, of certain crucial topics sometimes taught
too late, and of classes taught by teachers of widely varying qualifications, said the report, released at the meeting.
Pat Yancey, lobbyist for the Department of Public Instruction, took issue with the report.
The statute mandates that the state board provide a health education plan and it has developed a comprehensive program, Yancey said. Whether it contains the components you as a commission want it to, thats up for you to decide.
The reports recommendations would cost $5.4 million in the first year and $2.8 million in the second year if fully implemented. But Hiatt said some of the recommendations would not be considered becai^e of opposition by the Martin administration. . J.. *
One proposal that Martin did not endorse would require that all drivers under 18 nave learners liermits for at least six months te-lore getting licenses. Currently, l5>2-year-olds are eligible for learners permits after completing a drivers education course, but they can drive only with a licensed adult; applicants who are 16 years old and older can get a license without a learners permit.
Martin also said he would ml back a suggestion for full-time offices in all 100 counties.
Hiatt agreed, saying that there would not be enough funds available in the state budget to provide the $1.15 million necessary to locate full-time drivers license offices in the 32 counties that do not have them.

Most declarers have a natural tendency to go after their long suit first. Thats fine and dandy if it
East
yields enough tricks to make your contract. If not, other considerations could apply.
The auction was a matter of simple arithmetic. With a balanced hand, a fair fve-card minor and no slam interest. North was quite correct in raising to three no trump instead of responding three clubs.
West led his fourth-best spade, and Easts ten was taken by the queen. Declarer tried the club finesse. In with the king. East returned a spade. Declarer held up one round, but his ace was forced out on the next round. Declarer had only eight tricks. When he tried to set up a heart trick. West grabbed the ace and cashed two more spade tricks for a one-trick set.
Had declarer realized that he would not have enough tricks for his contract were the club finesse to fail, he might have found the win
ning line. He must first attack the entry to the danger handin this case. West. Suppose that, at trick two, declarer were to lead the king of hearts. Should West hold up the ace, declarer can score two spade tricks, two diamonds and a heart, so he will need only four club tricks. He can then take the club finesse with impunity.
Best defense is for West to grab his ace of hearts and continue with spades. Now declarer must hold up
the ace of spades for one round. When he then loses a club to East, either that defender would be out of spades or else the suit would be splitting 4-4. Either way, the contract would be secure.

Foreign Rescue Teams Leaving Quake Area
TMK ASSOCIATED PRESS
YEREVAN, U.S.S.R. - Some foreign rescue teams have given up hope of finding more survivors in the rubble left by the Armenian earthquake, and they are heading home, the top U.S. disaster relief official said today.
However, Soviet officials said the rescue effort would continue and denied reports that stricken cities would be bulldozed to prevent an epidemic.
Voices and other signs of life in the ruins dropped sharply after Monday night, when temperatures plummeted to below freezing, said Julia Taft, director of the U.S. Foreign Disaster Assistance office, at a news briefing in Moscow.
"The hope of finding any more (survivors) is ended, she said.
The official news agency Tass reported that rescuers were still searching. On Wednesday, Soviet Health Minister Yevgeny Chazov vowed to continue the effort because 60 survivors had been found in the previous 24 hours.
Soviet media reported looting of fur coats from the rubble, tents from relief supplies at the Yerevan airport, and even jewelry from corpses. Tass said cargo is now being shipped from the airport under guard.
Soviet officials say the Dec. 7 quake killed 55,000 people in northwestern Armenia and left about 500,000 of the areas 700,000 people homeless.
Tass said Wednesday that 48 villages had been destroyed, in addition to the city of Spitak. The larger cities of Leninakan and Kirovakan suffered major damage, and Ms. Taft said another 52 villages also were damaged. Tass reported Wednesday that 21,755 bodies have been counted and identified so far.
Rescue teams with search dogs from Italy and West Germany told Jeff Sallot of the Globe and Mail of Toronto that Soviet authorities had ordered them home, saying they were ready to blast the ruins of buildings in Spitak and bulldoze the rubble to prevent decomposing bodies from starting an epidemic.
The Soviet Embassy in France denied similar reports from French media on Wednesday, Tass reported.
Some foreign rescue workers said they planned to keep combing the crumbled buildings for life, despite fog and rain that was turning to snow.
"We continue to look for people, especially with dogs," said Dr. Georges d'Allemagne of the relief organization Doctors Without Borders. "We think there are chances for about another week to find a few people."
However, Ms. Taft said the dogs sense of smell becomes overwhelmed with the stench of death after several days, and they can no longer find survivors.
Michael Tamillow of Virginia said his team found two survivors Tuesday but none on Wednesday, Tass reported. "But the house where we dug Tuesday also seemed hopeless, so we do not have the right to leave, Tamillow said.
Snarled supply lines also have hampered the relief effort, and Pravda quoted Gen. Lt. V.C. Dubinyak today as saying some of the medicine and other cargo pouring in from around the world was being stolen from Zvarnots Airport in Yerevan, the Armenian capital. Authorities have recovered more than $400,000 worth of stolen goods, he said.
Sergei Movsisyan, a Yerevan volunteer for the International Red
Cross, said today that 20,000 tents should have been delivered to Leninakan but no one knows what happened to them.
Police caught one man with four foreign tents and three boxes of Bulgarian canned meat stolen from the airport. Tass reported today, quoting Victor Eren, deputy interior minister of Armenia.
Tass quoted Eren saying a man from the village of Abobyan was caught stealing watches, jewelry and medicine from bodies in Kirovakan.
The International Red Cross, warning of the worsening weather, appealed Wednesday for heavy-duty tents, blankets and stoves for at least 20,000 Armenian families left homeless
It is freezing at night, and it is much colder in the villages, dAllemagne said. "There are very few tents in villages, and there is no heat,
Snowfall and hazardous road conditions in the mountainous region also have hampered the relief efforts, and the next few days are expected to bring more snow and strong winds of up to 45 mph.
Fog delayed the arrival of flights from Moscow, and relief workers arriving by plane couldnt find, enough buses to take them to their destinations. "The airport in Yerevan is a total mess, dAllemagne said. "There are planes and people all over the place, and nobodv can find anvbodv else."
Americans Will Pick Up Possible MIA Remains
Mexico Limiting Driving Privilege To Control Smog
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BANGKOK, Thailand - A U.S. military team flew today to Vietnam to pick up 38 sets of suspected remains of missing Americans in the largest such turnover since the Vietnam War ended, officials said.
During the repatriation ceremony at Hanois Noi Bai Airport, the Vietnamese also were to turn over information on 12 other cases of Americans listed as missing in action, or MIA, said Lt. Col. Thomas J. Boyd, a spokesman for the U.S. Pacific Command.
U.S. officials said the remains
were not part of a group of 80 remains that U.S. forensics experts have been examining in Hanoi. The United States anticipates that any of those remains appearing likely to belong to missing Americans also will be repatriated soon, they said.
During the airport ceremony, a U.S. military honor guard solemnly loads the remains, each in metal caskets topped with a folded American flag, onto a U.S. Air Force plane for the flight to Guam and then Honolulu. In Honolulu, the Army Central Identification Laboratory analyzes the remains to determine if they belong to any of the 1,747 Amer
icans missing as a result of the war.
Vietnamese officials usually do preliminary analyses, but the army laboratory sometimes finds among the remains those of Vietnamese individuals.
The U.S. government appreciates the initiative taken by Vietnam to repatriate these remains and hopes to continue the increasing cooperation to resolve this long-standing issue, Lt. Col. Keith Schneider, a Pentagon spokesman, said Wednesday in Washington.
The Pentagon said it had not received any information from Vietnam on precisely where the latest
remains to be exchanged had been recovered or the circumstances surrounding their discovery.
Schneider added, however, "We understand the remains as well as the information are related to incidents that occurred (during the war) in the northern provinces.
Most missing Americans in the north were airmen shot down on bombing or reconnaissance missions.
All told, the remains of 172 Americans have been repatriated to the United States from Vietnam and subsequently identified by the Army laboratory since the end of the war.

MEXICO CITY - Color-coded registration stickers soon will determine which day of the week private vehicles will be allowed to circulate m this smog-plagued metropolis.
The plan to issue stickers in five different colors was one of several anticontamination measures announced late Wednesday by the federal govern-
"'officials also said holiday school vacations that began Wednesday would be extended until February in the city in a bid to cut down childrens exposure to health-threatening winter smog. . . ,
In addition to the restrictions on private vehicles, Mexico City also will try to battle its critical air pollution problem by increasing vehicle inspections, prohibiting the burning of tires, plastics and other contaminating wastes in open areas, and setting hours for cargo loading and unloading in the city during the smog season.
The announcement did not mention sanctions against violators of the new regulations. Generally, enforcement of most regulations in Mexico is lax.
It said that from Jan. 9 to March 21 vehicles observed to be contaminating the air will be taken out of circulation.
Beginning Jan. 16, smog checks will be obligatory for cargo vehiclp whether they have gas or diesel engines. The anti-burning regulation will be in effect from Dec. 15 to March 21.
Additional measures to reduce air pollution will be announced before March 21, according to a bulletin issued by the presidents office Wednesday
"*City spokesman Jose Luis Manjarrez said officials from the federal health, education ancl ecology departments would sign an agreement extending the Dec. 15-Jan. 2 holiday vacation until Feb. 1.
He said schoolchildren would make up the lost month of classes next summer. There are about 2.3 million students in Mexico City public schools, according to federal government statistics.
"We have agreed to protect the children of Mexico City and part of that is to change the school hours, Manjarrez said. We all know that the thermal inversion layer levels will be worse during the winter and that we have to tdk6 iTi03surcs
Last winter, authorities delayed the start of public school classes by two hours to limit exposure. Children often found themselves outdoors on the street in the early morning, waiting for buses while traffic was at its worst
and smog at its strongest.
Homer Aridjis, president of the Group of 100, a leading environmental organization, said the schedule change would do little to restrict smog exposure. School-age children breathe foul Mexico City air whether they re at
school or at home, he said. . . . ^ j -
The solution is not to change the school calendar, Aridjis said. It is not going to change the pollution situation. More drastic measures, such as less
traffic, are necessary. . . . . u i r
Mexico Citys smog regularly worsens during winter when a layer of warm air traps cold air bearing tons of pollutants near ground level. The phenomenon is known as a thermal inversion. The condition can last for
hours, sometimes days. .
The mountains that ring the Valley of Mexico, where Mexico City lies, prevent the dispersal of smog by winds; rains are scarce in winter, permitting winds to lift tons of dust bearing particle pollution and dried fecal matter off the dry Lake Texcoco lakebed.
About 18 million people live in the Mexico City metropolitan area.
Two Men Stranded In Glacier Landing
ger Charles "Buddy Ferguson, 31, of Gustavus, were flying from Cordova to Gustavus when they were forced to land about 45 miles from their destination for an unknown reason, Ehret said.
Mills wife, Connie, said both men were professional pilots w'ho had recently restored the plane.
The Coast Guard dispatched an H-3 helicopter Wednesday morning to rescue the men. but the craft ran into a snowstorm and poor visibility forced it to land at Gustavus, 50 miles northwest of Juneau.
Later attempts by two helicopters to reach the glacier were also unsuccessful, Ehret said.
They were making good headway and then they got up to that Cross Sound area and the weather got real bad, Ehret said.
A Coast Guard C-13U transport plane made several passes over the glacier to communicate with the men. The last communication came late Wednesday as the plane passed over the area on its way back to Kodiak to refuel. Ehret said
Ehret said the cause of the two mens emergency landing probably was not due to the weather, which was clear in the area T^uesday.
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
JUNEAU. Alaska - A snowstorm forced rescuers to leave two men stranded on a glacier in southeast Alaska for a second day after their small plane made an emergency landing on the remote river of ice.
Once visibility improved today. Coast Guard (Officials planned to send a helicopter to pick up the men, who messaged by radio that they were unhurt and wearing survival gear, said Coast Guard Lt. Rick Ehret.
They gave every indication that theyre'still in very good shape, are nice and warm, have plenty of food and can stand another night on the glacier. Ehret said Wednesday.
The I94()s-vintage Grumman Widgeon amphibious plane landed about 100 miles northwest of Juneau on Grand Pacific Glacier on Tuesday afternoon. Ehret said. The plane was not damaged and the men were waiting inside it.
The men contacted passing commercial and military jets by radio late Tuesday and their distress calls were relayed to the Coast Guard in Juneau. Ehret said.

Human Rights Studied
Students at South Greenville School have been participating in activities about human rights. The theme of the activities, Taking Care of Me: A Human Right, began with the puppet show, The Kids of the Block, which discussed handicapped individuals.

To support the human rights of the needy, students are collecting canned goods. The class with the most goods will be awarded a human rights trophy Tuesday.

Panel Proposes Changes For Community Colleges
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
RALEIGH A committee studying the states community college system has proposed a six-year program to overhaul the system and offer more intensive training to people who lack basic job skills.
The report by the Commission on the Future of the North Carolina Community College System released today includes suggestions for a more flexible funding system for the 58 community colleges; improved teacher pay; more money for student expenditures; elimination of barriers that hinder access and movement through the system; and increased cooperation with other education systems in the state.
You are talking about a fundamental transformation, one that takes the system that has served the state very well for 25 years and adapts it to the educational and eco
nomic challenges of the 21st century, said George Autry, president of MDC Inc., a private, non-profit research organization in Chapel Hill that is helping prepare the report.
The changes we propose require increased management flexibility and increased resources, said Sherwood Smith, the president and chairman of Carolina Power & Light Co. who chaired the commission. In turn, there must be increased accountability for results.
The recommendations say the attention to the problems of functional illiterary have concentrated on reading and writing, but other skills are demanded by the changing economy.
All adult education programs in the system should adopt the goal of building a comprehensive set of critical thinking tools that also includes computing, skills in communication, creative thinking, problem-solving,
GSL members Dottie Nisbet, Janet McGlohon and Barbara Wilkerson present gift to Leslie
goal setting and per^i lal motivation, career planning, teamwork, and a willingness to leai the recommendations said.

Ms. Beacham is a sophomore and recipient of the $500 Mary Lois Staton Scholarship. She is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Spook Briley of Pactolus. She is employed as a teacher's assistant in the Pitt County Schools and is a member of the Pactolus Volunteer Rescue Squad.

GSL Makes $300,000 Gift To PCMH Drive
The Greenville Service League has set the Pitt Memorial Hospital Foundations community "Pride and the Challenge capital campaign on its feet with a $300,000 donation that was announced today.
G. Henry Harry Leslie, general chairman of the campaign, said the Service League is a pacesetter for the campaign to supplement hospital funds for capital equipment and other needs of the medical center.
Leslie said the campaigns goal is $1,750,000. He said all funds pledged will be placed in an interest-earning endowment fund which will allow the foundation to use only the interest generated.
The Greenville Service League, founded more than 50 years ago, is a volunteer organization that provides a variety of services at PCMH and periodically donates funds for hospital needs. Its members operate the
visitors lobby gift shop and lease a coffee shop space to a private firm, turning over the lease payments to the hospital. Its volunteers also take snack carts to all areas of the hospital.
The Hospital Foundation is a nonprofit, tax-exempt corporation established in July 1980 to raise, receive and allocate gifts for the hospital. It is governed by a 20-member board of trustees.
Leslie is a former plant manager of the Burroughs Wellcome pharmaceutical manufacturing operations in Greenville and honorary trustee of the hospital.

Man And Dog Search For The Perfect Wave
By Eric Bailey LAT-WP NEWS SERVICE
SAN DIEGO - It is a cool, overcast Sunday at Windansea Beach in the La Jolla'area of San Diego. A few brave souls huddle around a thatched hut watching the locals ply the waves in a surfing contest. The gulls poke about. From the look of things, its a typical fall day at the beach.
Not qfiite. Bobbing out on the swells amid the wet suit-clad surfers is a most unlikely sight. Perched atop a Boogie Board is a 25-pound, four-legged ball of fur. This is no surfer; its a dog!
Yes, Rocky has hit the waves. Outfitted in a tiny, specially made wet suit, the tan and brown pup stares out to sea as his owner, Robin Marien, pushes the hard-foam board through the breakers. Suddenly, as a big wave rises up before them, Marien wheels the dog toward shore and gives the board a shove.
Rocky is off. Tail wagging, the pint-size surf mutt goes rocketing down the face of the wave, front legs splayed out for support. On shore, the crowd at the surf contest, lifeless until now, roars in approval.
The wave breaks, but this hot dog isnt finished. He rides the churning white water ashore, jumps off, then grabs the board with his teeth and awkwardly pulls it up onto the
beach. Rocky bounds about gleefully, barking.
Arf! Woof, bark, yip! (Dog lingo for Righteous! Gnarly wave, dude!)
Gnarly, indeed.
From Malibu, north of Los Angeles, to the tip of Baja California in Mexico, Rocky has surfed them all. This sheltie mix is quickly making a name for himself not only on the beaches of San Diego, but in, households around the country.
The 8-year-old surf pooch has ap-peared on several network newscasts as well as television shows such as Incredible Sunday and The Late Show. (He was shuttled to the latter by a chauffeur-driven limousine). People magazine recently did him up.
Marien, a husky, sandy-haired carpenter and Rockys biggest booster, sees a potential growth industry in the dog. He is planning a series of greeting cards featuring Rocky. And more.
Were looking for a televised national ad campaign, said Marien, 29, of San Diego. Maybe something for Coke or some dog food or whatever. Sure, he could do movies; he could do anything. Hes very versatile, intelligent. And he knows hand signals.
Heck, its happened to Mike the Dog and to Spuds. And Spuds doesnt even do anything. Hes just a face.
Like many an aspiring Hollywood star. Rocky had a humble beginning. Marien found the pooch when he was ^ mere pup wandering around the parking lot of the local Department of Motor Vehicles office.
As his owner tells it. Rocky got his start in surfing almost by accident.
During expeditions to the beach, the dog used to run along the edge of the water, barking and causing a commotion when Marien, a body-surfing aficionado, headed into the waves. Finally, about five years ago. Rocky got tired of watching, Marien said.
A friend of mine was heading out on his long board, so Rocky just jumped on and went along for the ride, Marien recalls. A couple days later, I was dragging my Boogie Board out into the water by its leash and Rocky jumped on that. I decided to tow him out.
The pooch rode his first wave all the way to shore. We were stoked, Marien recalls.
Marien, who is married and has a new baby, is accompanied by Rocky just about everywhere, including to the beach and jobs at construction sites. In the summer, he and the dog surf just about every day after work and on the weekends, though they ease up a bit when winter hits.
Its now to a point where Rocky will go out in eight-foot waves by himself, Marien said. He goes out

in 10 feet on a long boaro with my friend. He also jet-skis and water-skis. He can sail-board, too. And he rides on a motorcycle.
Together, Marien and Rocky have traveled up and down the coast in search of ie perfect wave. Rockys favorite surf spot, paws down, is
Cabo San Lucas at the tip of Baja California. He loves the steamy temperature of the water and air, Marien said.
Marien said that he and Rocky have given spur-of-the-moment exhibitions at several surf contests, always to ^e adoration of the fans.
Rockys most memorable reception, however, came at the OP Pro Classic in Huntington Beach, near Los Angeles, a few years ago, Marien said. Marien sneaked the d(^ out into the waves on the far side of the Huntington Beach pier as the pros surfed the other.

Martin Hedges On His Plans For 92 Elections
By John Flesher
r THE ASSOCITED PRESS $-
BC\LEIGH Republican Gov. Jint Martin says he is not eager to ruitor political office in 1992, but he woipd not rule out a possible Senate race in that year, when Democrat Tetry Sanford would be up for re-eleCtion.
Tm not even going to think about that for three years, Martin said Wetjnesday. If yall want to think abfljpt it, fine. Im not going to. But Imdiot going to close the door.
T|ie response was predictable fro^ a savvy politician barely a m(^ after a hard-fought, mara-thof campaign ended. But the Remblican governors top advisers
insist, publicly and privately, that he genuinely is undecided.
It was so clear-cut last time, there was no option, said Brad Hays, Martins chief political strategist. From 83 on, our whole plan was to run for governor in 84 and run again in 88. Its just not that clear-cut now. Its a whole different ball game.
A Senate race would seem the most logical next step for Martin, who is constitutionally barred from seeking a third consecutive term as governor. Some observers speculate he might be picked for vice president or a cabinet post, but that scenario appears less likely.
The political landscape will be an important factor in Martins deci
sion, insiders said in interviews Wednesday. But even more influential, they said, will be the answers to complex personal questions for a man at a crossroads.
Martin will turn 57 in 1992, still young enough to harbor national p(^ litical ambitions. Hell also be positioned to launch a new career as a university president, for example, the route taken by Martins friend, former Tennessee Gov. Lamar Alexander.
When announcing his candidacy for governor in 1984, Martin said he had tired of Washington after 12 years in the House. Interviewed as he campaigned for re-election in October, he said he had no desire to leave North Carolina for the crowded, fast-paced nations capital.

Budget Panel Rejects Martin
Plan To Cut Education Funds

Qovernor Wants Delay In Major Spending For BEP
figure into their thinking.
Retirement is a legitimate option, the source said. I dont think hes absolutely driven to spend his whole life in politics. Thats not Jim Martin. But... my gut feeling is hell be involved in 1992.
Hays declined to make a prediction, but agreed that Martin could enjoy life outside politics. He enjoys it, but he doesnt have to be in it. Hes got a strong inner self.
Ted Arrington, political science professor at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte and a Republican, disagreed. Hes a po-
Martin from running would be a major scandal in the Bush administration, an economic collapse or other developments that would make it a bad year for Republicans, Arrington said.
Even then, he said, Martin likely would be a formidable opponent for Sanford or whoever the Democrats nominate.
Kevin Brown, who managed Martins re-election campaign, said the governors reluctance to discuss 1^ did not mean he fears that his political fortunes will have declined by then. Hes very confident, Brown said.
Arrington said it makes sense for Martin to stay mum for now. The possibility that he would seek re-election was a political weapon during his first term as governor, he said. But discussing 1992 would only call attention to Martins lame-duck status, diminishing his influence with the Legislature and the bureaucracy.
Its in his interest to put off speculation ... for as long as possible, Arrington said, whereas it was in his interest four years ago to fuel the speculation. It shows sophistication on his part and his advisers part that they recognize it.
In the meantime, Martins best course is to build a good record in his second term. Hays said. The whole theory is youve got to stay strong and be ready to seize the moment.
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
^-
RALEIGH Gov. Jim Martin insist he is not backing away from a campaign promise by seeking to halve the states scheduled expenditure on the Basic Education Program next year, but a key state commission remains unconvinced.
Martin, struggling to prepare a spending plan for the next two years in the face of dwindling state revenues, sought support Wednesday fropi the Advisory Budget Commission for adding only $56 million, instead of $113 million, to the budget for&e BEP in the next fiscal year.
TJie one-year postponement would allqw modest pay raise for teachers' and state employees, Martin said.
Martin said his spending blueprint shows a commitment to the full $212 million scheduled for the next two years, but merely suggests spending less the first year and more the second year than called for under the plan adopted in 1984.
You end up in the same place, he said. Thats a full commitment to the Basic Education Plan.
But the Advisory Budget Commission, a 15-member group dominated by,Democratic legislators, was un-cortvinced. The group talked privately pfter Martin left and reached a cortsensus to reject his plan in favor of a blueprint the ABC adopted Dec.
1 that would keep BEP funding on trafck.
Rep. Martin Nesbitt, D-Buncbmbe, co-chairman of the Joint Appropria-tiors Subcommittee on Education,
said the BEP schedule should be altered only as a last resort.
Theres concern in my mind that once you start ... varying from it, the plan could unravel, Nesbitt said. I just think its a whole lot healthier to stay with the plan we agreed on four years ago.
Martins plan also recommended smaller spending increases for other programs, including environmental protection, services for the elderly, preschool for disadvantaged children, and state parks, than contained in a draft proposal approved by the commission Dec. 1.
Under Martins plan, $156 million would be added to the budget for the BEP in fiscal 1990-91 instead of the $100 million currently envisioned. Thus, he said, implementation of the BEP would be back on track by the end of the fiscal 1989-91 biennium.
The total budget increase for the BEP over two years would be $212.4 million as called for under the eight-year schedule for putting it in place, Martin said. The schedule for the BEP, an $800 million initiative to improve public schools, was adopted in 1984 and implementation is halfway finished. Next years installment will be the fifth.
The one-year slowdown in BEP implementation would allow an average 5.7 percent pay raise for teachers and a 4.5 percent raise for state employees in fiscal 1989-89, Martin said. But because the increases would take effect halfway through the year, the raises for the full year would be 2.85 percent for

Arabs Say Uprising Was Key To U.S. Decision
By G.G, LaBelle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
GENEVA - Elated by Washingtons decision to finally engage them in dialogue, PLO officials today credited the Palestinian
uprising in Israels occupied lands as gaining their cause worldwide sympathy and leading to the end of U.S. isolation.
Electrified by the U.S. announcement, the Palestinians laughed and embraced in the lobby of the Geneva
hotel where their delegation was staying as they discussed the long-awaited development with reporters.
The White Houses reversal came after PLO chairman Yasser Arafat told a news conference in Geneva on Wednesday that he renounced all forms of terrorism and recognized
The Associated Press
Arafat and Catholic aide Elia Khoury meet reporters at U.N. Building in Geneva Wednesday
Israels right to live in peace and security.
Hours later, President Reagan said the United States would begin a dialogue with the PLO. Secretary of State George P. Shultz said the PLO had finally met U.S. criteria for negotiations.
Indeed, the ambassador authorized with initiating contact with the PLO made a brief phone call today to PLO headquarters in Tunisia. An embassy spokesman for the ambassador, Robert H. Pelletreau Jr., had no details on the conversation.
Pelletreau himself was briefly held captive by Palestinian terrorists in Amman, Jordan, in 1970.
NBC News reported without attribution from Washington today that the talks between U.S. and PLO officials would begin within 48 hours.
Arafat was in East Berlin today for what the state-run ADN news agency said was a working visit, and met with East German Communist leader Erich Honecker.
Palestine Liberation Organization spokesman Ahmed Abdel Rahman said the U.S. decision means peace is near in the Middle East.
After 40 years of struggle and wars, we can speak about an era of peace in the Middle East, peace for all, the Palestinians, peace for us and our enemies, he said.
Israeli officials were shocked.
They said Arafats remarks were insufficient because the PLO did not rule out violence associated with the Palestinian uprising, which began Dec. 8, 1987 in the occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip and has claimed the lives of 323 Palestinians and 13 Israelis.
The intefadeh (uprising) changed
Independent State Had 1947 Beginning
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DAWSON^S
Here, at a glance, is background on the Palestinian people and the Palestine Liberation Organization;
HISTORY - Under the U.N. partition plan of 1947 the West Bank was to have been the nucleus of an independent Palestinian state, but in the 1948 war Israel captured some of the area allotted to Palestine, and Jordan annexed the rest. In 1967, Israel captured Jordans share of the West Bank and took the Gaza Strip from Egypt.
THE PEOPLE About 850,000 Palestinians live in the West Bank, including 400,000 refugees whose families fled the territory that became Israel in 1948. Since Israeli occupation began in 1967,62,000 Jewish settlers have established more than 100 settlements on land expropriated by the government. More than two-thirds of Gazas 650,000 Palestinian residents are refugees crowded into eight U.N. camps, many living in single-room shacks built from scraps of wood and corrugated iron. About 8,000 Jewish settlers also live in the Gaza Strip.
THE DISPUTED LANDS - The West Bank is two bulges of land on the west side of the Jordan River, with Jerusalem between them, totaling 2,323 square miles. The Gaza Strip is a coastal slip of land that covers 141 square miles.
THE PLO The Palstine Liberation Organization was established in 1964 by the Arab League to press for a Palestinian homeland. Its component groups field an estimated 5,500 full-time guerrillas, with probably three times that number in irregular forces. The PLO also operates representative offices worldwide, sponsors student scholarships and conducts other gov-ernment-like operations. Its legislative body is the Palestine National Couuncil.
The PLOs bureaucracy and fighting force, concentrated in Lebanon before 1982, was scattered across the Middle East after Israel invaded Lebanon in 1982. Chairman Yasser Arafat moved PLO headquarters to Tunisia in 1982.
The PLO is an umbrella group for at least eight factions. Arafat heads the largest, the relatively moderate Fatah.
Fatah and two other factions make up about 80 percent of the PLOs strength. They are the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine led by George Habash, which follows a Marxist-Leninist ideology, and the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine led by Nayef Hawatmeh.

JERUSALEM (AP) - The surprise U.S. decision to open talks with the Palestine Liberation Organization produced shock today in official Israeli circles and celebrations in Arab neighborhoods.
Foreign Minister Shimon Peres said the American turnabout represented a sad day for all of us and one firebomb in the occupied territories would put to shame Arafats commitment to end terrorism.
But Peres today was careful to downplay the possible impact on U.S.-Israeli ties, saying, Our argument is not with the United States. Our argument is with the Arabs.
The U.S. announcement sparked
rejoicing among residents of the occupied territories.
Thanks to the uprising, the PLO and the United States are now working together, said Hanna Siniora, a PLO supporter and editor of the A1 Fajr newspaper published in Arab east Jerusalem.

the world. Now the world understands there is a Palestinian people under Israeli occupation, there is Israeli oppression and Israeli killing day after day and that should stop immediately, Rahman said.
The American willingness to open a dialogue with the PLO is a historic change in the struggle in the Middle East, Rahman said.
On Tuesday, Arafat told the U.N. General Assembly in Geneva that the PLO accepts the right of all parties concerned in the Middle East conflict to exist in peace and security, and as I have mentioned including the state of Palestine, Israel and other neighbors.
He also said the PLO accepted U.N. Resolutions 242 and 338, which recognize the right of all Middle East nations to safe and secure borders.
That acceptance was one of three conditions set by U.S. law for dialogue with the PLO. The others were a clear recognition of Israel and renunciation of terrorism by the PLO.
Foreign Minister Sten Andersson of Sweden, who had served as a go-between in efforts to reconcile the United States and the PLO, said the Americans got what they wanted. Andersson called the development a triumph for the world and for freedom.
An Israeli government official, speaking early today in Jerusalem on the condition of anonymity, said
neither Shultz nor other U.S. officials consulted Israel before the move.
The official said Israel believed Arafat failed to fulfill conditions laid down by Washington for recognition of the PLO, both in his speech Tuesday and at Wednesdays news conference.
Shultz, meanwhile, said Wednesday night that the United States does not recognize the declaration of an independent Palestinian state, made by the PLO in Algeria last month, but that it would be a subject of discussion.
Rahman said in reference to Israel: They are isolated. They are alone at this moment because of their unrealistic policies. They^ should recognize the right of the Palestinian state to exist like their state.
The U.N. meeting in Geneva,, scheduled to end today, was held in Switzerland after the United States refused to grant Arafat a visa to speak at U.N. headquarters in New York.
In a speech before the world body on Wednesday, Walters had said the world should tell Israelis and Arabs it is tired of their long conflict.
Walters urged Israel to face up to the need for withdrawal from occupied territories, which it seized in the 1967 Middle East war. "^e lands are home to 1.7 million Palestinians and 70,000 Jewish settlers.

Eagles, Paladins Heading West
By Rick Scoppe
THE ASvSOtlATED PRESS
COLUMBIA. S.C. - Georgia Southern and Furman are only a six-hour drive apart. So why are the two Division I-AA powers flying more than 2,000 mites to play each other two time zones away from home?
Several reasons. First and foremost is that this is no ordinary game. Its for the I-AA national championship.
But there are other reasons why two schools 338 miles apart are journeying to Pocatello, Idaho, to play, said Dennis Poppe, director of championships for the NCAA.
While the I-AA playoff preliminaries are held at on-campus sites, the NCAA wants the title game at a neutral site, Poppe said. He also said it is important to have the site set a year in advance.
We try to make it a bowl-like atmosphere, Poppe said in a telephone interview. In order to do that, you have to work well in advance, as opposed to say, five or six days if it were held on an on-campus site.
We could go to an on-campus site, but then we could not plan the kin(i of activities that well have in Pocatello," he said. There are a lot of extra things that we would not be able to do.
Among those extras are a banquet, dubbed A Taste of Idaho, where the two teams can sample a variety of dishes from around the state, including buffalo, elk and salmon, Poppe said.
While extras like that are nice, Furman coach Jimmy Satterfield would just as soon see the game played at the home of one of the two
finalists. Satterfield said as much as an assistant at Furman when the Paladins lost to Georgia Southern 44-42 in the 1985 I-AA title game in Tacoma, Wash.
Satterfield didnt like traveling from Greenville to the West Coast then, and he isnt too happy about flying to Idaho now.
It doesnt make a whole lot of sense for Georgia Southern and Furman to go out to Idaho to play, Satterfield said after the Paladins beat Idaho 38-7 Saturday to earn a spot in the I-AA championship game. But well go anywhere were asked to play for a championship.
Ive said since 1985 that the game site should be at the home of one of the two teams in the championship, he said. If we had to go to Statesboro, that would be all right with us.
Its not really nice to the fans whove supported you all year. When we played in 1985, there were probably 5,000 people there, and probably half of them knew who we were or Georgia Southern was.
This championship site determination has got to be looked at, but let me say again, well play anywhere for a national championship.
Poppe said he wasnt opposed to changing how the I-AA championship site is determined.
Obviously, its a concern, he said. Im not saying it cant be done on-campus. If thats what I-AA wants, well probably do it. The championship game site is determined by bids, but not all I-AA schools or cities have the facilities or the wish to host the event, meaning theres a limited pool from which to draw.
The game was held in Charleston 1983 and 1984, but the city didnt seek to keep it after that because of small
crowds and the lack of national television revenue.
Greenville made a last-minute attempt to get the title game two years ago, but Pocatello won out and has held the last two games. Both Furman and Georgia Southern are hoping to host next years game.
Its ironic that both are interested in next year, Poppe said.
Poppe said he also didnt know what all the fuss is about, noting that a year ago Marshall played Northeast Louisana and no one seemed to worry about having to travel to Idaho.
I dont know why people are picking up on that this year, he said.
Another concern expressed by some is the starting time: 8 p.m. MST, or 10 p.m. EST. Poppe said the main reason for the late start is the game will be shown live by ESPN.
But because the game will probably not end before 1 a.m., editors in Georgia and South Carolina will be hard-pressed to get a score much less a story from the game into their newspapers.
Ed McGranahan, sports editor of The Greenville News, estimated that the game will be getting over about the time hed typically be done for the night.
Were having to stretch our deadlines to the limit and having to make some Adjustments in the way we typically handle a game story ... to get some report of the ballgame into The News Sunday morning, McGranahan said.
While Poppe said there may be some problems with the game being in Idaho, he also sees plenty of pluses in holding the game at the 12,000-seat Milton Holt Arena.
This year, the game is sold out, although only about 1,000 fans from Georgia Southern and Furman 500
PCC Thumped By Craven, 109-68
'' NEW BERN Craven Community College took an early lead and rolled on to a 109-68 victory over Pitt Community College in a basketball game ' Wednesday night.
. The Paladins got off to a slow start and saw Craven take a 10-2 lead. The ' eight-point spread at that point was as close as the Paladins got after that.
- Craven continued to pull away, building up a 47-30 lead at the half. They outhit Pitt, 62-38, in the second half to complete the romp.
I was pleased with our patience in the first half, but we got impatient in the second and didnt play as well on defense, Coach Charles Coburn said. I hope the holiday break will do us some gciod. I hope we can continue to improve.
Darryl Overton led Craven with 16 points while Harvey Wade had 13 and Darren Hill and Ted Ross each had 11. Ricky Congleton led Pitt with 21 while : Don Hutson added 13.
Pitt falls to 3-10 with the loss..

Peach Bowl Tickets Selling Well
RALEIGH (AP) With two weeks left before the Wolfpacks date with Iowa at the Peach Bowl in Atlanta, N.C. State officials expect not only to sell their allotment of 19,300 tickets, but could use a few more if they can get their hands on them.
- We will have 22,000 people in the stands, associate athletic director J Frank Weedon said in a telephone interview Wednesday. We may exceed :that.
Weedon, who has made the four previous trips to Atlanta, says Wolfpack fans arent the least bit hesitant about being frequent travelers to the same
* game.
I think the biggest thing is the proximity. Its close enough for a family or a group, Weedon said. Youve got interstate all the way and its just close enough to put everybody in the car and drive. Its a good marriage for N.C. State and the Peach Bowl.
Weedon recalls previous trips to the Tangerine and Bluebonnet bowls which didnt draw as well.
. We went to the Tangerine Bowl before Christmas, he said of the 1975 game which the Wolfpack won 30-17 over Pittsburgh. We took very few fans because too many people were busy before the holidays.
N.C. State played to a 31-31 tie with Houston in the Bluebonnet Bowl in 1974 before 35,122 in the Astrodome.
, ^ We didnt take many people there because of the distance, he said.
A drive to Atlanta from Raleigh is about eight hours, and by airplane , about one hour. It is that projcimity that has maintained the connection which Peach Bowl officials are happy about.
^ I hope it says we run a good bowl game and its a great trip for players and fans alike, said Robert Dale Morgan, executive director of the Peach Bowl. And wed like to think Atlanta is a great city to come to.
Morgan thinks Atlanta might have an edge over places like Pasadena, , where the Rose Bowl is played.
What we find from a fans perspective and a player standpoint, aside . from the game itself, they would much prefer to be here, Morgan said. . Theres much easier access to different events and all the fans are in the downtown area.
' Another thing you have to consider is that Atlanta is a two-hour flight from 80 percent of the country. Getting to Atlanta is not difficult, he said.
: It could be that the response of N.C. State has been sufficient to keep the : Peach Bowl from an anticipated demise five years ago.
I think the last three years demonstrates that weve got the game with
momentum going in a very positive direction, Morgan said. I think our future looks even brighter. We return to network television next year... The support is going to get better. %

Its great, just exciting." Grant Long said after the Heat edged the Los Angeles Clippers 89-88 Wednesday night to snap a record 17-game losing streak. "It feels like we can go on and get the next one. Our confidence level is high,"
Miami coach Ron Rothstein wants to savor the first victory first.
Im just thrilled to finally get a win we deserved, Rothstein said. Weve been in about six games this season that could have gone either way. and I thought at least three of those should have been ours."
Six of Miamis losses have come by six or fewer points.
I'm just sorry the first win didn't come for the fans in Miami," Rothstein said. "Its a milestone day for our franchise and the city of Miami. It hasn't been easy, but weve got a great group, a group of resilient young men and some great veterans."
Pat Cummings, Grant Long and Billy Thompson each scored 15 points and Jon Sundvold had 14 as the Heat built a 12-point lead, then held off the Clippers in the final two minutes.
We just played exceptionally well together tonight we passed the ball and the picks were set," Long said. It was an all-around effort by the team.
Clipper coach Gene Shue said his team's downfall was committing 15 turnovers and getting out-rebounded 26-17 in the first half.
I saw the game slipping away in the first half," Shue said. We allowed the Heat to win,
Danny Manning scored 23 points and Quintin Dailey 21 for the Clippers, who missed a game-winning shot with two seconds to go.
Kucksll9,.FislonsllO Terry Cummings scored seven of his 19 points in the final 4:04 as Milwaukee downed Detroit.
Bill Laimbeer gave Detroit its last lead. 98-97 with 6:45 remaining. But Jay Humphries, who led the Bucks with 21 points, put Milwaukee in front to stay. Jack Sikma sank two free throws and Cuijimings converted a three-point play.
The Bucks have won three straight and seven of their last 10. Last Tuesday they beat Detroit 109-84 in Milwaukee, the Pistons' worst defeat of the season.
Adrian Dantley led Detroit with 22 points.
Nets IIH, Lakers 113 Rookie Chris Morris hit a 3-point shot with three seconds to go to send the game into overtime and New Jersey's defense led the Nets past
the Lakers, who twice turned the ball over in the overtime on 24-second violations.
The Nets were led by Roy Hinsons 31 points and Buck Williams' 22 points and 13 rebounds. Magic Johnson had 35 points and James Worthy 26 for the Lakers. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, making his final reg-ular-season visit to the Brendan Byrne Arena, scored only five points in 28 minutes.
Trailing 110-108 in overtime, the Nets took a lead for good when Hinson sank two free throws and John Bagley hit a 15-foot jumper.
Celtics 112, Jazz 104 Danny Ainge scored 22 points and Robert Parish added 21 while grabb
ing 15 rebounds to lead Boston over Utah. It was only Bostons second win in its last six games, but the Celtics 18th consecutive Boston Garden victory over the Jazz since the Jazz joined the NBA in 1974.
Karl Malone led Utah with 27 points.
Hawks l:i, TliersJM)
Dominique Wilkins scored 30 points as Atlanta snapped a two-game homecourt losing streak by defeating Philadelphia. The Hawks snapped a 73-all tie on a Reggie Theus basket with 2:56 left in the third quarter and led the rest of the way.
Charles Barkley led the Sixers with 26 points.
or so from each school are expected to be on hand, he said. Last year, 11,513 attended the title game.
Theres also the fact that Pocatello has come to embrace the game is its own, Poppe said.
Out there, I-AA football is the top football, Poppe said. They can relate to that type of football.
They also realize this is a special activity - a national championship. It gives them an opportunity to gain exposure.
Bruno Gets No Greeting
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES - Frank Bruno wasnt exactly greeted like royalty upon his arrival from London.
The British fighter, accompanied by Jarvis Astaire, was met only by a couple of photographers when they came into Los Angeles International Airport Wednesday.
Is Tyson here to meet me? Bruno asked.
Mike Tyson was not.
Nor was there a limousine nor any other special means of transportation. Bruno and Astaire instead boarded a bus for the rental car lot.
Bruno is, however, in town for important business.
His on-again, off-again bout against heavyweight champion Tyson is set again.
The formal announcement of the fight, set for Feb. 25 in Las Vegas, was scheduled for today in Los Angeles.
The fight already had been postponed five times. The first date was June in Londons Wembley Stadium.
But that was cancelled when Tysons fight against Michael Spinks was set up, then subsequent tries for a Tyson-Bruno match were put on hold by Tysons continuing personal problems.

(Continued from A-1) why the increase was so sharp, said Fred G. Bond, chief executive officer of the Flue-Cured Tobacco Cooperative Stabilization Corp.
The amount of tobacco Stabilization presently has in storage is the lowest since 1974, Bond said, and in recent years the tobacco industry has been using about 165 million pounds more tobacco than growers produced. Thus, the surplus has dwindled and there is a need to rebuild inventory.
Also, cigarette exports have been booming, up 80 percent in recent years, Bond said. Unmanufactured tobacco is also starting to become a favorite overseas, he said, and leaf exports are increasing.
While cigarette sales in the United States are decreasing about 1 {^r-cent a year, there are fewer imports to compete with domestic brands, he said.
When you look at all of this at one point in time, the need for tobacco is there, Bond said today in a telephone interview from his Raleigh office.
Obviously, the increase in quota should generate added gross receipts to growers, he said.
The 6.8 percent quota increase in 1988 produced an additional $225 million in gross revenue for flue-cured
growers in Florida, Georgia, Virginia, South Carolina and North Carolina, Bond said.
North Carolina produces about two-thirds of all flue-cured tobacco in the region, and Pitt County is the largest producer in the state, he said.
I think with the buyer interests that weve (seen) and with good weather. Im hoping well have a season as good as 88, Bond said.
While the increase for 1989 sets the base quota at 890 million pounds. Bond said the effective quota will be 900 million pounds.
The effective quota is determined by whether there was a shortfall in production or excess in production in the previous year. This year there was a shortfall of 10 million pounds. Bond said, and that will be added to the 1989 quota.
There was a shortfall of 55 million pounds in 1987, and that was added to the quota for this year, he said.
Some farmers have said they/Wel-
come the increase. Bond said, but others have said they are concerned that they may not be able to farm the added acreage.
It depends on each individual grower, and whether he has sufficient equipment, barns, et cetera, he said. Farmers are not required to increase their production.
Richard Blanks, who handles agricultural issues for U.S. Rep, Walter B. Jones of Farmville, said from his Washington, D.C., office today that the quota increase will generate more income for farmers.
I think they always hope its going to go up, Blanks said. It certainly will be a sudden transition, but I think theyre ready for it. Im sure theyll adapt pretty well.
The way the system is set up ... they can only sell whatever their alotment is, he said. Any additional income they can generate (is good). We had a good season (this) year and this is more good news for next year, he said.
(Continued from A-1)
Arad also said he hoped the U.S. decision did not lead to recognition of the PLO. He said Arafats remarks at a Geneva news conference did not supersede the PLOs covenant, which calls for Israels destruction.
In Geneva, Arafat had said: I repeat for the record that we totally and absolutely renounce all forms of terrorism, including individual terrorism, group and the state terrorism.
In response to a question, he said, I do expect and hope that the United States will drop its veto so that the Middle East can be discussed. The U.S. decision was hailed by James Zogby, executive director of the Arab-American Institute, who called it an important step forward in movement toward a real peace process.
The dialogue should throw into sharp relief the failure of Israel to say yes to the very issues that the PLO has now acceded to. Our hope is that the dialogue is productive and that peace is now possible.
George E. Gruen, director of Mid-
Clerk
Shultz also said the United States does not recognize the independent Palestinian state that was declared recently by the PLOs parliament. He said the future of the West Bank and Gaza, which Israel captured from Jordan and Egypt in the 1967 Six-Day war and has held ever since, should be determined by direct negotiations between Israel and the Arabs.
Reagan, in a written statement, said the PLO had accepted U.N. Security Council Resolutions 242 and 338 and had renounced terrorism.
I think Id be killed, I really do, because I know a lot, he said.
Eddie Hatcher, who was indicted along with Jacobs, was arrested the day the indictments were returned and held for three days in the Robeson County Jail. His bond, which originally was set at $140,000, was reduced to $25,000 and paid by the National Council of Churches.
(Continued from A-1)
Murphy apparently came to work and got into some sort of argument with a co-worker, and pulled a weapon out of a bag he had secured in the area, Hayes said.
Hayes said he thought the gun had been brought in earlier, but he gave no further details except to say two shots were fired and one of the wounded was the person Murphy argued with. He did not identify the victims.
Two people, one hit in a thigh and the other in an arm, were in stable condition at Tulane Medical Center, a hospital spokesman said.

Holiday Spirit Pushes Many To Bankruptcy
Christmas Could Take Some Families Beyond Debt Limit
By Bill Sing
LAT-WP NEWS SERVICE
LOS ANGELES - If volume of gift giving is a measure of Christmas spirit, Wendy Johnson certainly had lots of spirit.
The Los Angeles resident thrived on giving gifts. Two years ago, she spent about $5,000 on Christmas presents for about 40 colleagues, family members, friends and even casual acquain-tances. She gave a $150 microwave oven to a colleague she hardly knew, just because the woman needed one.
I just loved buying things for people, Johnson recalls.
There was one problem: She couldnt afford so much generosity on her moderate income. Her Christmas spending sprees, along with other buying frenzies the rest of the year, were financed through her 35 credit cards, and the tab on them at one point reached $42,000. Increasingly hard pressed to pay, she considered filing for personal bankruptcy but instead went to a credit counseling service that worked out a repayment schedule.
Johnsons case is not an isolated one. Because Christmas is the most intensive period of retail sales activity, Yuletide overspending is a significant contributor to the ballooning consumer debt burden. Personal bankruptcy filings are running at record levels, and many consumers cannot get credit to buy homes or cars, experts say. Such problems could worsen if the economy lurches into a recession, an event some economists fear could occur next year. .
While Christmas shopping is not the largest of the many sources of growing consumer debt borrowing for homes and cars is far larger it is often the last straw, advisers say.
For many shoppers, misuse of their credit cards this season
could push them over the debt cliff, obligating them for payments they will simply be unable to handle, says Elgie Holstein, executive director of Bankcard Holders of America, a Herndon, Va., consumer group.
This whole season is the time you see lots of people getting into financial trouble, says Les Kirschbaum, president of Mid-Continent Agencies Inc. in Glenview, 111., one of the nations largest debt collection agencies. The comp^any typically sees a 30 percent hike in its activity after Christmas.
Overall, American families are expected to spend an average of $325 on Christmas gifts this year, up 7 percent from last year, according to a survey by the Conference Board, a New York business research organization. For most households, that level of spending is very manageable.
But tens of thousands of families go overboard, according to Don Badders, president of the National Foundation of Consumer Credit Counselors, which oversees 410 non-profit credit counseling centers nationwide. He says 40 percent of the more than 200,000 families or individuals seeking help at the centers do so in January and February when they start receiving Christmas-related bills.
Todays society is so caught up in material things ... you get obligated to overindulge and overspend, says Susan Randolph, 30, a Los Angeles business manager who, before seeking counseling, once had nearly 20 credit cards with close to $10,000 in debt.
Experts also blame the easy accessibility of credit cards. The 107 million consumers with credit cards today hold an average of about 7.8 of them per person -about 2.7 bank-issued cards, the remainder retailer, gasoline or phone cards, according to David Robertson, vice president for
marketing at the Nilson Report, a Santa Monica, Calif., newsletter that tracks the credit card industry. That is up from about 5.8 cards per person in 1980, Robertson says.
Consumers are more likely to let credit card payments slip than home or car payments, because defaulting on card debts is not likely to result in belongings being repossessed. Failing to make mortgage or car payments, on
the other hand, can eventually mean the loss of a house or car.
Overall, outstanding consumer debt rose to $646 billion in July, up 13 percent from $571 billion at the end of 1986, according to the Federal Reserve. But credit card debt had grown even faster, hitting $175 billion, 29 percent more than the $136 billion recorded just a year and a half earlier.
Perhaps the most telling evidence of soaring debt is the re
cord number of personal bankruptcy filings. Despite the continued economic expansion and low unemployment rate, one in every 178 households nationwide will file for personal bankruptcy this year, according to the Nilson Report. The more than 500,000 personal bankruptcy filings will cost creditors an estimated $12 billion, the newslet-
(See SPENDING, PageC-5)What Kind Of Spender Are You?Generous Work With No Budget
By Bill Sing
LAT-WP NEWS SERVICE
Les Kirschbaum, president of Mid-Continent Agencies Inc., one of the nations largest debt-collection agencies, says Christmas overspenders often fall into one of several character types; Among them;
Depression spenders: Espousing the motto when the going gets tough, the tough go shopp^ ing, they buy to boost their emotional state.
Me-too buyers: Not having the financial resources to keep up with the Joneses, they rely on credit cards to do so.
I gotta have it buyers: They must have one of every fad product and usually are avid viewers of Home Shopping Network.
Cashless buyers: They refuse to carry cash, no matter what the circumstances. They will charge a pack of chewing gum.
Credit card collectors: They accept every card offered to them and like to show them off in public.
To overcome these and other tendencies, financial experts offer the following tips to keep holiday shoppers from overextending themselves:
Set an overall budget for Christmas spending based on what you can afford, and stick to it. Make a list of what gifts you will give to see if it meets the budget. Avoid spur-of-the-mo-ment purchases.
Keep a running tab of what you are spending and comiere that with your budget. Consider attaching a slip of paper to the back of each credit card, and write the amount of each purchase on it as you go along.
Beware of deferred payment plans. Even though you wont have to pay for a while, you could incur enough in finance charges to double the cost of your merchandise.
Consider drawing names among family members to decide who will give gifts to whom.
It theres any doubt about what you can afford, dont use credit at all. Just use cash.

Paul McCartney Steps In On Crickets Album
By Joe Edwards
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NASHVILLE, Tenn. - The Crickets, the band of the late rock n roll great Buddy Holly, recently got help from a member of another legendary group: Paul McCartney, the former Beatle.
McCartney played piano, sang harmony and was producer of the song T-shirt on the Nashville bands current album of the same name.
They are probably the first rock n roll band I remember, McCartney said in a promotional videotape for the Crickets. Ive always been a fan of theirs.
The McCartney-Crickets collaboration, done at McCartneys recording studio in England, evolved from the Crickets appearance two years ago at McCartneys annual Buddy Holly Week celebration. At that time, the ex-Beatle said he was interested in working with the group.
The album is the first in about 10 years for the Crickets, whose name inspired McCartney and John Lennon to name their band after another insect.
It is basic rock n roll with three pieces (instruments), says Cricket Jerry J.I. Allison, a drummer. Its basically what we did back in the 50s.
Allison, Holly and Joe B. Mauldin, who is still a member, founded the Crickets in Lubbock, Texas, in 1957. They were known for such hits as Peggy Sue, Thatll Be the Day and Maybe Baby,
Holly died on Feb. 3, 1959, with Ritchie Valens and J.P. Big Bopper Richardson when a tour plane they were flying in crashed in a Iowa cornfield. The pilot also perished.
Hollys life was the subject of the 1979 movie, The Buddy Holly Story starring Gary Busey. Valens life
was recounted in the recent motion picture La Bamba. Los Lobos did a version of the traditional Mexican song Valens had made into a hit, La Bamba, and made it a No. 1 tune on the record charts in 1987.
Allison and Mauldin were not with Holly when the plane crashed because Holly had moved from Texas to New York City and was using new members of his band.
The two performed occasionally as Crickets in the 1960s, but did not really get back together until 10 years ago. At that time, they began performing as Crickets again as the opening act for country music star Waylon Jennings, who had been accompanying Holly on the concert tour when he was killed. In fact, Jennings gave up his seat on the plane to the Big Bopper.
The third current Cricket is Gordon Payne, lead vocalist and guitarist, who joined in 1985.
Payne admits he doesnt sound like Holly. Ive tried, but I dont, he said of the former bandleaders style.
The band plays an equal amount of new and old material, though the album is new songs. They close their concerts with Thatll Be the Day.
It was our first song and got us started and out of Texas, Allison recalled. It seems to be the most familiar one to all the people.
In the past year, the three have performed throughout the United States and Europe and in Australia and Canada. A tour of Japan is in the works for 1989.
Allison said the Crickets played in garages in Lubbock in the 1950s, but did not take their name from a cricket they heard chirping as portrayed in the movie about Holly, Instead, they were inspired by another band called the Spiders.
We thought insects were a neat name. We got a list from somewhere and decided to pick another insect, Allison said.Hollys Band
The Crickets, the band of late Rock n Roll pioneer Buddy Holly, got some help from former Beatle Paul McCartney on their new album, T-Shirt. They are, from left, Jerry Allison, Gordon Payne and Joe B. Mauldin.
He said Hollys legacy is that he showed that you dont have to be a real pretty boy or that you dont have to have a lot of money to entertain or have a rock n roll band.
It showed a lot of people that you could get up and write some songs and play and not have a whole bunch of publicity behind you. We sort of wrote the songs ourselves and produced them ourselves. He wasnt your idol-looking kind of guy youd see in Photoplay, He just wanted to sing and play, he said.
It was simple music, uncomplicated so anybody
The Associated Press
could pick it up. Ive heard that anyuuuy cuuio go get a guitar on Saturday night and learn Thatll Be the Day and those three-chord songs and have em a little group. Before that, it seemed harder.
Said Payne:He sang with such feeling and intensity. Even Bruce Springsteen says he listens to old Crickets records to keep it honest. He left behind a mold for other singers: what youre supposed to try to do.
Mauldin, the Crickets bass player, said he didnt try to interfere with McCartneys work on their album.
Latest British Lingo Insinuates Its Way Into English
By Robert Baar
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LONDON - Previous euphemisms for lying are now, to use one outdated word, inoperative. In the latest British lingo, to withhold the truth is to be economical. Economical has been enshrined
in the Longman Register of New Words, among 1,200 words and phrases including plonker, load-samoney, bonk journalism and yah.
All, according to Longmans editor, John Ayto, have insinuated themselves into the language of Chaucer, Shakespeare and Dickens since 1986. ^
Economical owes its new meaning to court cases involving Spycatcher, the expose by former intelligence official Peter Wright that the government attempted to suppress.
In a court case in Australia over Spycatcher, former British civil service head Sir Robert Armstrong admitted he had previously been
economical wth the truth.
Economical thus has come to be euphemism for deliberately withholding something from public knowledge, the Register said.
Sexy has been tamed, now meaning attractive, enjoyable or trendy, the Register said, but the language has found new ways to talk about the birds and the bees.
The press infatuation with sex has produced the term bonk journalism, defined in the Register as journalism concerned with obtaining and printing accounts of the sup-)osed sexual activities of well-mown people.
Plonker, the insult which Del Boy constantly hurls at his younger brother in the Britis^ Broadcasting
Corp. TV sitcom Only Fools and Horses, has established itself as a synonym for a dim-witted and ineffectual person.
Several new words and phrases the derogatory dependency culture and learned helplessness along with the approving can do - are owed to Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.

Ames stars in the drama series next Tuesday as Sheriff Thompson, an old friend of Police Chief Bill Gillespie (Carroll OConnor), who undergoes a chanjge for the worse after the death of his wife.
Ames is best known to television audiences for playing Mingo, Daniel Boones Oxford-educated Cherokee Indian companion on Daniel Boone 20 years ago. After he left the series in 1968, Ames resumed his singing career. In recent years he has worked mostly in regional theater and performed in concerts.
In the Heat of the Night stars OConnor as chief of police in fictional Sparta, Miss., and Howard Rollins as the chief of detectives. The series was inspired by the Oscar-winning 1967 movie of the same name that starred Rod Steiger as a Southern sheriff forced to accept the help of a black detective, played by Sidney Poitier, to solve a murder case.
The series is in its second season.
Ames plays a sheriff whose life kind of collates, he said.
He lets his personal problems influence hi8 professional duties and he begins to abuse his prisoners.
Scientists at Moulis, in the Pyrenees, have determined that an average-size man walking in a cave for an hour produces 20 to 25 liters of carbon dioxide, 30 grams of water, and a heat flow equivalent to a 175-watt light bulb.

Hes Chief Gillespies oldest friend, and they end up on opposite sides of the fence.
It starts when a black rookie policeman (from Sparta) arrests an old friend whos fleeing Thompsons jail. He pleads not to be sent back. When he is sent back and dies in Thompsons jail, the black policeman has himself arrested so he can investigate the charges.
The rookie officer, Wilson Sweet, is played by new cast member Geoffrey Thorne.
Gillespie has a hard time believing all this about his old friend, said Ames. But his young policeman gets badly beaten in my jail. What I like is that none of this violence is shown on screen.
I liked this script because it deals with police brutality. It takes another look at ethnic prisoners and the police. It doesnt make the guy into a monster. He was a man who had helped people, but when he went bad there was no system in the community to deal with it.
Ames has worked in regional theater in recent years, appearing in such plays as Fiddler on the Roof, Man of La Mancha and South Pacific.
Ive also been in Shenandoah, a musical adapted from the movie with James Stewart, he said. He played Charlie Anderson, a man who was indifferent to the Civil War until his family became involved. The plays a metaphor for whats happening in the world today. Hes the little guy on the farm whos caught between the two sides.
Ames did a guest shot on Murder, She Wrote a few years ago, but otherwise had rarely appeared on television.
Ive decided I want to come back and do television and films again, he said. I must confess that after Daniel Boone I wanted to do some theater. I had a hit record come out, and it started a whole new career for me again as a musical artist.
He had been a member of the Ames Brothers, a popular singing group. He sang with his brothers Gene, Joe and Vic.
After the group broke up he went to drama school and later played the schizophrenic Indian in One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest on Broadway with Kirk Douglas. The producers of Daniet. Boone saw him in that and offered me the role of Mingo.
Ames also-^picked up two college degrees, including one in directing from the UCLA Film School.
Id like to do another TV series, he said. Id like to direct, too.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK - Last summer, Beverly DAngelo was grand marshal of the July 4 parade in her native Columbus, Ohio. In the new Peter OToole movie High Spirits, DAngelo doesnt do much cheering.
She plays the unhappy wife of Steve Guttenberg, an American tourist who hopes to rejuvenate his marriage by taking a trip to Ireland. They end up at Castle Plunkett, run by Peter Plunkett (OToole), who attracts customers by advertising that the castle is haunted. Unloved by his cold-hearted wife, Guttenberg ends up falling in love with a beautiful ghost (Daryl Hannah).
T decided I was going to be free from what was expected of me, said DAngelo about her new role. She has appeared in Coal Miners Daughter with Sissy Spacek and National Lampoons Vacation with Chevy Chase, among many other films.
After the Vacation movies, there was tremendous popularity and success, she said. I got photographed at a lot of airports. But if youre really established so firmly in other peoples imagination, its difficult to get out a certain range.
So the actress jumped at the chance to play a negative character in High Spirits.
I was totally relieved of having to try to make anyone like me. I could really explore a territory without worrying about it, DAngelo said.
The actress was bom in 1954 and lived in Columbus until graduating from high school. Painting was her first love, and she lived in Florence, Italy, where she studied at the American School of Contemporary Arts. But her dream of being an artist was short-lived and when she returned to the United States, DAngelo, whose father was a musician, pursued a career as a singer.
I had a musical background and 1 ended up in Toronto doing studio vocals. I did anything. Pepsodent commercials. I sang in a few bands,
I sang in bowling alleys.
She landed a job as a background singer for the rock artist Ronnie Hawkins, but her interests soon shifted to acting and she joined a Canadian-based repertory company in the mid-1970s. She played Ophelia in a musical version of Hamlet on Canadian television, and had the same role when it was brought to Broadway as Rockabye Hamlet. The show flopped.
I strangled myself on stage while smoke bombs and fires went off, she recalled.
Movies, however, proved more successful for DAngelo. Her debut came in 1977 with a bit part in Woody Allens Academy Award-winning Annie Hall. She followed that with roles in John Schlesingers Honky Tonk Freeway, and the adaption of the muscal, Hair. Thats when it started to click. I had been a painter, then I wanted to be a singer. In Hair, I realized there was a tremendous amount of freedom in playing different characters. You could play a painter, play a singer. It suits my temperament. In 1980, DAngelo got to play the late country star Patsy Cline in the highly acclaimed Coal Miners Daughter.She has warm memories of the film, especially of its star. Sissy Spacek.
I always felt that the whole movie was a very wonderful experience and it had everything to do with Sissy, DAngelo said. She did such
Stockwell Set For TV Debut
Dean Stockwell will make his television series debut sometime after the first of the year in NBCs Quantum Leap. In the series, created by Don Bellisario, he appears only as a hologram who is the mentor of Scott Bakula. Bakula plays a young scientist who has built a machine that allows him to time travel to times within his own lifetime.

special work, and I really think a lot of the atmosphere had to do with that she was such a wonderful person.
DAngelo had known director Neil Jordan (Mona Lisa) and quickly agreed to be in High Spirits. The atmosphere on the set seemed to live up to the films title.
There are some scenes where oure watching Peter OToole, Peter Gallagher, Little John (a street theater performer from Dublin), Liam Neeson and me and Steve Guttenberg. All these people came
together. That was fascinating, sne said.
Everybody did have such different approaches. It was a process of being quick on your feet all the time.
She especially enjoyed working with OToole.
Peter OTooes a genius, and very charming. Peters got one of the all-time great reputations for having lived a life so it was a pleasure to see that hes also the ultimate professional.
High Spirits has undergone changes since filming was completed. The producers found the plot too complicated and ended up eliminating material. DAngelo was unhappy with some of the alterations, but still defended the movie.
This opened the Dublin Film Festival and I sat with 2,000 people who really; really enjoyed it, DAngelo said. ' .
nd she was happy to play the character that got booed.
Theres a lot of encouragment to play sympathetic roles. But in this role, instead of going after someones heart, youre going after somebodys imagination.

Williams Gets 8 Years On Drug Charge
By John Bare
: THE DAILY REFLECTOR
:A Greenville man arrested in an undercover drug operation has been sentenced to eight years in prison for conspiring to sell heroin, but he was found innocent on three other drug charges.
Wayland Snake Williams, 35, of 609 W. Fifth St. had been charged with six heroin violations in connection with a Feb. 26 heroin sale to an undercover State Bureau of Investigation agent.
After hearing testimony, a Pitt County jury found Williams guilty Wednesday of conspiring to possess, sell and deliver heroin, and Superior Court Judge John B. Lewis of
Farmville sentence him to eight years on each of the three charges.
According to state law, Williams could not be sentenced on three conspiracy charges stemming from one incident. Therefore, Lewis arrested judgment in two counts, leaving Williams to serve eight years. The maximum penalty he could have faced for each charge was 10 years.
The jury also found Williams innocent of possessing, selling and delivering heroin. The three charges also carry maximum penalties of 10 years in prison.
Williams is one of 23 people arrested on heroin and cocaine charges since the eight-month undercover operation came to a close Sept. 23. He is the fourth of those arrested to either stand trial or plead
Pitt, Martin Agencies Receive State Grants
A community development corporation in Greenville and a minority credit union serving Windsor and Williamston are among 21 recipients statewide named to receive North Carolina Rural Economic Development Center grants.
Billy Ray Hall, president of the state development center, announced the grants which total $1.5 million. They are designed to boost local economic activities.
In Greenville, the West Greenville Community Development Corp. has been awarded a grant of $44,000 to help carry out effective community economic projects within the city of Greenville, Hall said.
The local grant will assist in a housing ownership demonstration project within the West Greenville area. Barbara Fenner is coordinator for the project.
A minority credit unions grant of $241,000 was made to St. Luke Credit Union in Windsor which serves Bertie and Martin Counties. Amaza Mitchell is the coordinator.
The purpose of the grant is to provide an opportunity for the credit union to increase loan size as well as to increase the number of loans for start-up of minority businesses and opportunities, said Hall.
The grant to St. Luke Credit Union is the largest of any of the 21 approved grants, the spokesman said.
Based on guidelines required by state legislation, $1 million of the pilot project funds were allocated to minority credit unions, with 10 unions receiving grants. The remaining $500,000 grant fimds were allocated to 11 community development corporations.
guilty to charges.
Williams attorney, Allen Brown of Greenville, emphasized to the jury that another man actually took the money and handed the drugs to the SBI agent.
Williams, he said, was a tadpole in an ocean of drug dealers, and the drug chain will not be affected by sending Williams to prison.
Tomorrow there will be another drug case ... , Brown said to the jury. You dont break a chain by sending him away.
Reciting several Bible stories to the jury, Brown said society is suffering from a lack of values, and sentencing Williams to prison will not change youngsters who are afflicted with money fever. Parents should instill values, he said, and the courts should not be used to send messages to the misguided.
Williams told Lewis he was a heroin user, not a dealer, and he worked the streets to make money make for more drugs.
But in his closing argument, Assistant District Attorney Clark Everett told the jury the case shows how pervasive drugs have become.
Virtually anyone can drive to the area in Greenville where the sale allegedly occurred, and strangers will approach the car and ask what kind of drugs are wanted, he said.
Rescue Squad Meeting
The Pactolus Rescue Squad will hold its annual community meeting today at 8 p.m. at the main fire station on U.S. 264 East. Residents of the rescue squad district are urged to attend, said Capt. Frank Coburn.

If you break any one of the chains from the top to the bottom you break the system, Everett said to the jury, Youve got to attack the chain wherever you can. You cant go after the poppy grower in Pakistan.
Under direct examination from Everett, SBI Agent J.C. Rea said Williams and at least three other men approached his car the evening of Feb. 26 when he stopped at the corner of Sixth and Ford streets.
The men asked what he wanted, Rea said, and he told them dope, which is street parlance for heroin. Williams said he could get him some heroin and got in the car, Rea said.
The two drove to Bailys convenient mart on Watagua Avenue, Rea said, and Williams twice got out of the car to meet with someone. The second time he returned with 16-year-old Dion Pie Coggins of Greenville.
It was Coggins who handed the packet of heroin into the car and accepted $30, Rea said. Coggins allegedly paid Williams an unknown amount of money.
Coggins, who Everett said was wearing a beeper the night of the sale to keep in contact with buyers, has not yet been arrested. He has been indicted on six heroin charges and is being sought by authorities.

Christmas Brings Warmth, Giving, Frustration
By Sally Squires
LAT-WP NEWS SERVICE
Only about 10 days left to buy presents, mail the cards, shop for Christmas dinner, decide how much money youre giving to the garbage man, the cleaning lady and the newspaper carrier. Only 10 days before you, your family and your inlaws break bread together. Only 10 days to go crazy and lose it all the umpteenth time you fight for a parking space at the mall.
Theres no escaping holiday stress, says William Doherty, director of the Marriage and Family Therapy Program at the University of Minnesota, St. Paul. You pay the price if you are alone for the holidays and you pay the price if you are with your family.
At this time of year, the smallest issue can trigger an emotional explosion that makes mincemeat of your hopes for a kinder and gentler Christmas. One couples new marriage almost ended over the type of lights to put on the tree. He wanted blinking lights. She didnt. Their solution, worked out with the help of a therapist, was to alternate lights each year.
The reason holidays are such a volatile time is that memories of Christmas past compete with the stress of making Christmas significant.
People get very attached to their traditions, says Washington social worker Katharine Baker. It becomes a threat to their identity as a family when they are forced to think about different Christmas tree lights or different words to cfiristmas carols. Every little thing just becomes more dramatic.
All this happens just as the overwhelming message of the season, cheerily conveyed through syrupy
television commercials, is that your family is less than normal if it doesnt get together for the holidays, and it is particularly odd if there isnt peace and harmony when they do gather together. But the fact is that most families come closer to resembling a plot out of the Twilight Zone than a Norman Rockwell painting.
Putting family members together for the holidays forces all kinds of unresolved issues into the open. Adults who may not have seen each other all year now return to their >arents houses only to be treated ike children again. Siblings regress to their old roles. The princess daughter who never had to do any chores still doesnt pitch in to help. Meanwhile, her Cinderella sister finds herself stuck in the kitchen with a stack of dishes, just like when she was a child.
Theres a lot of unfinished business, says Joel S. Bergman, a marriage and family therapist in New York City.
Add to this the strong societal pressure for everyone to be happy at this supposedly joyous time of year. But everybody isnt, says Bergman.
The secret to staying sane during the holidays, say mental health professionals, is a strong sense of humor and a penchant for careful planning. Be prepared, they say, should rival Merry Christmas as a greeting.
But if you didnt begin buying presents in August, if your Christmas cards from last year are gathering dust in their boxes, or if you and your ex-spouse are still arguing over where the children should spend the holidays, theres still a chance to pull the chestnuts out of the Yuletide fire and have a merry occasion.
Realistic Expectations: One reason some people become disap
pointed at Christmas is they expect too much. Hopes for a perfect holiday usually are dashed faster than Santa can say On Dasher ... because few people share the same image of a perfect Christmas.
Dont expect, says Florida psychologist Florence Kaslow, that everything you always wanted will happen and that earlier problems will vanish on their own.
Chances are that if Uncle Harry got drunk last Christmas and started telling the same old war stories, hell do it again this year. Expect things to go wrong, says the University of Minnesotas Doherty. If there have been stressful things that happened at previous Christmases, chances are that they will happen again.
When in Rome: Wherever you go for Christmas, follow the rules -and the holiday traditions - of the house. Remember that you are a guest, advises Kaslow. The overall message, is to go with an attitude of acceptance of who the people are and how they live.
Its poor form to accuse your spouse of coming from a family of barbarians simply because they celebrate differently than your family does.
When Christmas is at your house, you get to set the agenda. But you can also do that with others in mind. And its probably a good idea to give some early warnings to your relatives if youre making major changes in decades-old family Christmas traditions.
Its even possible to co-opt wary family members by involving them in planning activities. Each person might be held responsible for planning one activity for the whole group, suggests Kaslow.
Gifts: The Three Wise Men had it easy. Buying gifts today is one of the most anxiety-provoking activities of
Christmas, because, as Bergman )uts it, a gift is a metaphor for ove.
What you give to someone speaks volumes about how you feel about them, a fact that ^s left many Christmas shoppers quivering undecided in dej^rtment store aisles.
Some families solve this dilemma by following a simple rule. All the men get socks and ties. All the women get perfume and candy. But when families who do this intermarry with families who dont, it can be a real bummer, says Doherty. It leads to huffy discussions, he says, about coming from that kind of family.
The solution is not to change how the in-laws behave, but to gradually establish your own traditions of gift-giving between you and your spouse.
Christmas Coordinators: The person most likely to feel frazzled and overworked during the holiday season is the Christmas Coordinator. Regardless of how they celebrate, or where they gather, all families have a Christmas Coordinator.
Usually, but not always, a woman.
the Christmas Coordinator fe the person who feels most responsible for pulling off a wonderful Christmas. It is the Coordinators role to see that everything goes smoothly, from hanging the mistletoe to serving Christmas dinner. This is the one person who is apt to experience battle fatigue, says
Doherty. This is the person who can get the most caught up in wanting Christmas to go perfectly, and the one who is most apt to flip out when things go awry.
The Christmas Coordinator, says Doherty, is often, but not always, married to the Christmas Abstainer.

U.S. Made PLO Move On Its Own
4 > THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
I* WASHINGTON - President K^9gans decision to open direct i^jjks with the Palestine Liberation Organization capped a month of intense debate over recent PLO overtures, a period in which the United ;^tntes stood virtually alone in the i^iqprt of world opinion.
^5 jhe historic decision announced jVednesday came 18 days after Secretary of State George P. Shultz refined to allow PLO chairman Yasser C3fat to enter the United States to j^dress the U.N. General Assembly. SMfz said Arafat was kept out because his organization engaged in.ierrorism against Americans and others.
^Shultz made clear Wednesday that ^ was not forgiving the PLO for its past but said Arafats statements i^arlier in the day recognizing the existence of Israel and renouncing terrorism had met standards set in 1975 %U.S. dialogue with the PLO.
K jiyiany nations attacked Shultzs Nw. 26 decision not to allow Arafat to come to New York. Shultz made |he decision just 11 days after the P^jestine National Council, the P0s governing body, had accepted U.N. Resolutions 242 and 338 as the basis for peace talks and world leaders were eager for Arafat to elaborate.
The criticism of Shultz came from all quarters and included assertions ' the United States was violating the ! agreement under which New York . serves as the organizations headquarters. Even Pope John Paul II. without specifically referring to the I decision, said every obstacle to the peace process should be removed.
U.N. delegates passed a resolution denouncing the decision, and only the United States and Israel voted against it. Britain abstained. President Reagan and President-elect ' Bush stood by Shultz.
The U.N. then took the unprecedented step of moving its debate to Geneva, where on Tuesday Arafat ' made his long-awaited speech and I declared, Come, let us make ' peade. He recognized Israels right ' to exist, condemned terrorism and ,said peace negotiations should be I based on Resolutions 242 and 338
I the three U.S. conditions for opening 1 a dialogue with the PLO.
I Shultz had received advance word i;Arafat might meet the standards and had, according to sources, in- formed Israel that he was prepared .|to announce that the United States I was ready to talk to the PLO.
' But, after a close examination of , the speech, the State Department .said Arafats language was am-; biguous and did not meet our con-liditions.
1! Arafat then called a Wednesday news conference in Geneva and,
I carefully choosing his words as ad- visers whispered to him, read a ' statement that called for a Palesti-Inian state to co-exist alongside ; Israel, said resolutions 242 and 338 'should serve as the framework for peace talks and that we totally and I absolutely renounce all forms of ter-rorism, including individual ter-I rorism, group and state terrorism.
At virtually the same time Arafat spoke. Bush was applauding the PLO leaders Tuesday speech but repeating the standard Reagan ad-' ministration line that it had not gone far enough.

Dooley Quits At Georgia
Russell, Sheridan Said Top Choices To Replace Him
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ATHENS, Ga. - Now that the speculation has ended and Vince Dooley has resigned as coach of the Georgia Bulldogs after 25 mostly glorious years, the school turns its attention to the hunt for a new coach.
Dooley announced Wednesday he would quit as football coach following the No. 19 Bulldogs Jan. 1 date with Michigan State in the Gator Bowl.
School President Charles Knapp told hundreds of spectators, including the media and Bulldogs followers that Dooley would stay on as athletic director temporarily.
Dooley said he would probably stay until a new coach is hired and possbily until Feb. 8, the first official
signing date for high school recruits.
Knapp said he had appointed an eight-member search committee to screen candidates and would meet with the committee in his office today.
He said the school would have a separate head football coach and athletic director. Dooley had held both positions since 1979.
As soon as a new football coach is chosen, I will move expeditiously to appoint a search committee to recommend a new athletic director to me, Knapp said.
As for hiring a new coach quickly to help in the recruiting process, he said;
We all feel a sense of urgency because of the onset of the recruiting season, but it is more important that we make the right choice. I would
like to make it as soon as possible. Among those rumored as possible successors to Dooley are Dick Sheridan, head coach at North Carolina State; Erk Russell, whose Division 1-AA Georgia Southern Eagles seek their third national title in four years on Saturday, Denver Broncos coach Dan Reeves and Georgia assistant head coach George Haffner.
It has aU moved pretty fast in the last 24 hours, Knapp said. Im not aware that we have contacted any individual.
When asked to provide a list of candidates, Knapp said:
Its a most impressive list the media came up with. Theres no leading candidates, but we will be contacting them within the next few days.
Sheridan, in the third year of a 10-year rollover contract, contacted in Raleigh, N.C., said he was very happy at NC State.
He said he and his staff are not looking for another job.
We havent been contacted by the University of Georgia. If we are. we will cross that bridge when we come to it, said Sheridan, whose 1988 team is 7-3-1 and meets Iowa in the Peach Bowl.
Russell, an assistant under Dooley for 17 years before going to Georgia Southern, said he also had not been contaced. He said he did not know what decision he would make if the job were offered.
I have no idea where that rumor came from, said Reeves, a native

Lou Holtz wins 1988 Bear Bryant Coach Of The Year Award
Irishs Lou Holtz Coach Of Year
Hornets Win; Heat Claims First
Charlotte Upends Indiana, 115-106; Miami Slips By Clippers, 89-88
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HOUSTON - Looking back over Notre Dames undefeated season. Coach Lou Holtz accepted humbly the Bear Bryant Award as the nations top college football coach.
The top-ranked Fighting Irish, 11-0, had some close calls this season.
You look back and if Miami converts the two-point conversion and if the field goal goes through at Michigan, there were so many things, Holtz said Wednesday night. So I accept this humbly. Notre Dame beat Michigan 19-17 and second-ranked edged Miami SISO.
Holtz, who won the award for the second time, beat out Miamis Jimmy Johnson, West Virginias Don Nehlen and Southern Californias Larry Smith for the award, presented by the Football Writers Association of America.
Holtz said he and his staff may have done a better job in 1985, Holtzs first at Notre Dame.
I thought we did a good job our first year at Notre Dame when if it werent for 14 points we could have won 10 football games, Holtz said. "We were so close we had to get over that hurdle.
But coaching gives you a chance to win. The athletes have to win it for you.
The Fighting Irish have one game remaining against No. 3 West Virginia in the Fiesta Bowl before wrapping up a national title.
This season has a chance to be special, but right now it's not. I cant
put it any simpler, Holtz said.
Nehlen thinks the Mountaineers should be national champions if they beat the Irish.
Johnson said No. 2 Miami should get the nod if the Hurricanes beat Nebraska in the Orange Bowl and West Virginia beats Notre Dame.
Nehlen listened calmly and responded strongly.
Our football team went through that schedule and never was tested, Nehlen said of his 11-0 Mountaineers. Were number three and were playing the team they (Miami) lost to and if we beat that team ... I love Jimmy, but hes full of it.
Holtz, also sitting on the panel, stayed out of the discussion.
I havent figured out whos number one anyway, he said. 1 dont have to make the selection so I wont. Im just worried about West Virginia.
Johnsons Hurricanes will play No. 6 Nebraska in the Orange Bowl and No. 5 Southern California will play Michigan in the Rose Bowl.
When youre number two and the number one team loses, if that were to happen, normally number two moves up, Johnson said.I just feel weve got as good a chance to become number one in the country as anyone else.
Smith did not attend the banquet because of Rose Bowl commitments.
Syracuses Dick MacPherson won the award last year. Holtz first won the honor in 1977 when he coached the Arkansas Razorbacks.
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHARLOTTE - Fans may have thanked Kelly Tripuckas 40-point effort for the Charlotte Hornets 115-106 victory over the Indiana Pacers, but Tripucka says the credit should go to his coach.
Thank Dick Harter for this, Tripucka said Wednesday night, after scoring a team-record 40 points. "Dick knew me from the Detroit Pistons, knew what 1 could do. Hes not just my coach, hes my friend. Id jump off a bridge for Dick.
Tripucka, who has averaged 31.4 points a game in the last five contests, came to the Hornets in a trade with the Utah Jazz based on the lobbying of Harter, a former Pistons assistant coach.
Tripucka iced the victory Wednesday with two free throws in the last 55 seconds to give Charlotte a 111-101 lead.
Eleven seconds later, he took a full-court pass from Kurt Rambis for a breakaway dunk. The victory was Charlottes fourth straight at home.
Its nights like this that make this game fun, Tripucka said. 'Were an expansion team in name only. If we get the effort from everyone every night, we expect to gooutandwin.
Tripuckas performance helped offset the absence of Rex Chapman, who strained his back in the second quarter and missed the rest of the game. Chapmans status for Fridays game against the Dallas Mav-

RALEIGH - North Carolina State Coach Dick Sheridan says he is happy where he is, and if he is asked to apply for the coaching job Vince Doolev is leaving at Georgia, he will cross that bridge when he gets to it.
Let me make it clear that our staff is not looking for another job, Sheridan said Wednesday in a prepared statement.
We are devoting our efforts to make N.C. State as good any program in the country. he said. We have invested a lot into this program. Its great to feel good about where you are.
After running Georgias football program for 25 years. Dooley announced his plans for retirement Wednesday.
Its flattering to have our name connected with other jobs when they come open because that is a sign that we are doing things the right

Sheridan said he was concentrating his efforts on preparing for the Peach Bowl, where the Wollpack will play Iowa.

said in a prepared statement. "If we are. we will cross that bridge when we come to it. We re not interested in leaving N.C. State and have no ideas about leaving N.C. State.
Wolfpack Athletic Director Jim Valvano said he had not been contacted by Georgia officials.
In light of the announcement of coach Dooleys retirement. I wouldnt be surprised if they would be interested in talking with Dick Sheridan. It would be a great compliment to Coach Sheridan and his staff. Valvano said.
Sheridan, who has a 10-year rollover contract, is in his third year as coach at N.C. State, and has led the Wolfpack to a 19-13-2 record.
In 1986, he took a Wolfpack program that had recorded three consecutive 3-8 seasons and led them to an 8-3-1 record and a Peach Bowl berth, the schools first bowl game in eight years. The Wolfpack lost 25-24 to Virginia Tech.
Prior to coming to N.C. State, Sheridan was the head coach of Division I-AA Furman for eight years. He led the Paladins to a record of 69-23-2 record and Furman was runner-up in the l-AA playoffs in 1985. i

Tripucka was at his best in the final four minutes 37 seconds, after the Pacers had taken a one-point lead, their first of the second half. Indiana had outscored Charlotte 12-4 late in the third quarter toward reducing a 13-point Hornets lead.
Tripucka immediately responded with a 20-foot jumper, and Rickey Green knifed through three Pacers for a layup and a three-point edge 20 seconds later.
The Hornets lead grew to 10 over the next three minutes, with Tripucka hitting a jumper from the top of the key and three free throws for the victory.
But the game didnt belong only to Tripucka. The Hornets outrebounded the Pacers 46-41 after losing the boards 61-37 Tuesday in a loss to the Pacers in Indianapolis.
Robert Reid scored 18 points, Rambis had 12 points and 13 rebounds, and reserve center Tim Kempton added 21 points, nine rebounds and three assists.
Wayman Tisdale and Rik Smits paced Indiana with 19 points each. Reggie Miller and Herb Williams added 16 each.
This is a funny game, Tisdale said. Its tough to predict how youre going to play from night to night. We just got outplayed, outre-bounded and outscored.

Free Agent Chase Driving Baseball Salaries Up Again
Fewer Free Agents Are Changing Teams Now
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK - The chase for free agents is driving baseball salaries up again, at a pace not seen since before the days of collusion, an Associated Press study shows.
Two years ago, stars such as Jack Morris and Tim Raines received little or no attention. This year, a .199 hitter got a $2 million, two-year contract, and a pitcher with a 66-96 career record got a $3.95 million, three-year deal.
Long-term contracts, so far, have been limited to three years, and fewer free agents are switching teams than before an owners boycott began in 1985. But given the tumult in the marketplace over the last six weeks, general managers are wor: ried.
Lou Gorman, general manager of the Boston Red Sox, thought about some of the recent deals and wondered aloud: How are you going to pay a Roger Clemens or a Dwight Gooden? Both can become free agents after the 1989 season.
In the past month, nine free agents signed three-year contracts, one more than for all of 1985. 1986 and 1987 combined. Eleven more players got two-year deals.
What has happened in the last few weeks demonstrated what they did the last three years. agent Richard Moss said. They know everybody is looking over their shoulder.
An examination of contracts revealed:
- Free agents this offseason have increased their salaries for 1989 by l2^ percent, from an average of
$705,638 to $809,417. They went up 1 percent last year, decreased 15 percent in the 1986-87 offseason and went down 5 percent in 1985-86. when the owners were found by an arbitrator to have begun their collusion. The off-season increase this year is the highest for free agents since 1982-83.
Salaries for free agents changing clubs have risen 37 percent, from an average of $667,471 to $916.923. Last offseason, the salaries of free agents switching teams declined 23 percqnt, from $718,667 to $552,500.
Twenty of 34 free agents signing with major league teams so far this year received multiyear contracts. Last year, 18 of the 54 free agents who signed got multiyear deals; in the 1986-87 offseason, it was eight of 38.
Of the 38 free agents signing so far this offseason, 13 switched teams. Last winter, 22 of 59 switched teams. In the 1986-87 offseason it was 13 of 41, and in 1985-86, it was three of 28. In 1984-85, the last precollusion offseason, it was 25 of ,56. In 1983, it was 20 of 44,
The percentage of the salary increase this year probably wiil go down and the percentage of players changing teams probably will go up after the final figures are calculated since many lesser free agents are still unsigned and some are not wanted back by their former clubs. Clearly, though, the market is open again.
This thing has gotten so crazy again this year that it just defies description, Cincinnati general manager Murray Cook said.
Not just the top players have benefited. Reliever J|sse Orejeo,
ineffective for two seasons, signed a two-year $1.675 million contract with Cleveland. Reliever Tom Nieden-fuer, unwanted by last-place Baltimore, signed with Seattle for $1.75 million over two years.
Shortstop Alfredo Griffin baited .199 for Los Angeles last season and got a two-year, $2 million contract. Second baseman Ron Oester. who made $290,060 for Cincinnati in 1988 and had just 150 at-bats, re-signed with the Reds for $1.3 million over two years. Shortstop Scott Fletcher, who made $575,000 last season for Texas, re-signed for $3.9 million

Nuclear Age Came Into Being
By Malcolm Ritter
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK ^ Fifty years ago this month, two German scientists working with relatively simple equipment on unfinished pine tables accomplished a feat that rocked the I^ysics world and ushered in the nuclear age.
They split the uranium atom.
An unthinkable idea at the time, atom-splitting was later called nuclear fission and used to produce nuclear power and the atomic bomb.
It brought Otto Hahn a 1944 Nobel Prize in chemistry. A year later, the bombing of Hiroshima turned his triumph to shock and self-blame.
I was shocked and depressed beyond measure, Hahn wrote in his autobiography. The thought of the. unspeakable misery of countless innocent women and children was something that I could scarcely bear.
In 1938, Hahn was 59, a plain-speaking, cigar-smoking chemist who already had an international reputation for research. While still in his 20s, he had discovered two substances formed in the radioactive breakdown of thorium.
Hahn, Austrian physicist Lise Meitner and chemist Fritz Strassmann began their uranium work because of experiments by others that involved bombarding
uranium with neutrons. Neutrons, along with protons and electrons, are building blocks of atoms.
Starting in 1934 with research by Italian physicist Enrico Fermi, scientists were reporting varying answers about what elements were reduced as a result of that bom-ardment. Hahn and colleagues decided to get to the bottom of that question.
Hahn said later in an interview that his team, Fermi and others already had split uranium atoms with neutrons, only none of us realized we had done it.
The historic experiment began the evening of Dec. 16, 1938, with another bombardment of uranium. As Hahn and Strassmann worked to identify the new atoms that resulted, we were faced by something distinctly odd, Hahn said.
To help in identifying the minute quantities of new atoms, the scientists had been mixing in the element barium, which would grab onto similar atoms. The barium latched onto some newly created atoms, meaning they were either radium or barium.
Barium was out of the question, according to physics theory at the time. To produce barium, the neutron bombardment would have had to split uranium atoms nearly in half. Hahn and Strassmann assumed the unknown atoms were radium.
Radium can be separated from barium. But the unknown atoms
Drug To Combat AIDS Weight Loss To Undergo Testing
By Sue Miller
LAT-WP NEWS SERVICE
BALTIMORE - A drug that appears to be successful in retarding wasting syndrome in terminally ill cancer patients will soon be tested to see if it is equally effective in treating people with AIDS.
The drug, high-dose megestrol acetate, will be tested on AIDS patients at the University of Maryland Cancer Center here. Prelimary trials using the drug on other cancer patients are under way at the Maryland center, the University of California, Los Angeles and Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tenn.
Patients with cancer and acquired immune deficiency syndrome, as well as other diseases in their final stages, suffer a severe weight loss in which they appear to be wasting away, experts say.
The patients have muscle loss and weakness. They cant fight off infections; they cant eat; they cant move around and they become more intolerant to treatment.
Preliminary findings of an ongoing trial of 80 patients at the three medical centers show that high-dose megestrol acetate seems to induce weight gain and improve the quality of life of cancer patients with wasting syndrome. Dr. Joseph Aisner, the University of Maryland centers director, said Tuesday.
Some of the women said they felt so good while on the drug for a six-week period that they didnt want to give it up, he said. And the side effects seem to be limited to mild fluid retention and mild swelling of the legs.
Based on those encouraging findings and a small study at Northwestern University showing weight gain in 14 AIDS patients who had wasting syndrome, Aisner said that the cancer center will collaborate with at least two other institutions to see if the same benefit from megestrol acetate is found in larger numbers of patients with AIDS. Aisner would not disclose the names of those other institutions.
The study is expected to get under way early in January, he said.
The drug, which is sold under the trade name of Megace, has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, but as a chemotherapy agent in breast, prostate and endometrial cancer.
Aisner said that researchers stumbled on to the potential usefulness of megestrol acetate in treating the little-understood wasting syndrome when they were testing the drug to see if it would shrink breast cancer tumors.
The tumors continued to grow, but the women gained weight, some as much as 100 pounds, he said.
The only thing that has ever been shown to control wasting syndrome has been the control or eradication of the underlying disease process, he said. If someone has cancer wasting, and the cancer can be controlled, the wasting goes away.
But in this case, the cancer had not been controlled, and the patients were gaining weight.
Aisner said that Dr. Ann Hamburger, a cellular biologist, found that the megestrol acetate triggered cell mechanisms to cause the cells to turn into fat cells.

like barium... Perha[ you can put ftHward some fantastic explanation. We ourselves realize that it (uranium) cant really burst into barium.
But further experiments no doubt. As Hahn later wrote in S^en-' tifie American, Oitf artificial i/ra-dium could not be separated from barium for the simple reason that it was barium!
Incredibly, that meant the uranium atom had split.
On Dec. 21, Hahn and Strassmann finished a hastily written manuscript that announced their results, but cautiously. As chemists, Hahn said, we hesitated to ahnounce a revolutionary discovery in physics.
The theoretical explanation emerged when Meitner took a walk through a snowy Swedish woods with her nephew, physicist Otto Frisch. Together they realized that after the nucleus, or core, of the uranium atoms absorbed the neutrons, the atoms had split much like a wobbling raindrop that finally breaks into two.
They also realized that the splitting released an enormous amount of energy. With the fission energy from just one ounce of uranium, for example, the average American household could meet its electrical needs for 70 years.
Frisch and Meitner also proposed that atom-splitting be called fission, because that was what biologists called the division of one cell into two.
The news of nuclear fission and its explanation spread quickly. Frisch had barely ^ begun telling Danish physicist Niels Bohr on Jan. 3,1939, when Bohr struck his forehead and exclaimed, Oh, what fools we have been! We ought to have seen that before!
In a recent interview with The Associated Press, physicist Edward Teller recalled that the news also struck him as quite obvious when he heard it later that month at George Washington University. But Teller, who would soon become involved in atomic bomb research, said he did not immediately foresee what Hahns discovery would bring.
The Berlin experiment was soon repeated in American laboratories. The quick spread of the news helped to negate any advantage Adolf Hitlers regime might have had in making an atomic bomb.
In any case, according to physics
historian Spencer Weart, authorities decided to dev^ resources to pressing milit rather than the massive r^rch necessary to develop such a weapon.
In contrast,'. Albert Einstein told Fratlin D. Roosevelt only eight months after the discovery that the United States should develop a bom^' that used fission. The first funding was granted in 1940.
In 1942, scientists at the University; of Chicago achieved the first artificial fission chain reaction, in which neutrons emitted by the fissioning of one atom went on to split apart othf^i* uranium atoms.

Reappearance Starts A Battle In Old War
Dear Abby: I am a 40-year-old, liappily married woman with three children. Ive been married for 20 years. My parents divorced when I was 10 years old because my father ran around and left my mother many times for other women. Mom finally divorced him and he moved out of state.
Now, after 30 years. Dad has come back into my life. He has told me how sorry he is for his past actions, and I believe he is sincere. He says he wants to know his grandchildren before he dies. Weve been keeping in touch lately. He still lives out of state and has never remarried. Hes almost 70 now and is not in the best 'Of health.
My mother found out, and she blew up. She wants me to promise that I will never speak to him again. Ive tried to explain that Dad is sorry, and I do care about him.
Mom says she feels betrayed and hurt. I dont want to hurt her, but why cant I be friends with both of them? Or shouldnt I be friends with my father because of the way he treated Mom and me?
Please help me with this heavy problem. Caught In Between

If your mother chooses not to be friendly with you, it will then be her decision, but she should not force you to choose between your father and her.
How much happier your mother would be if she, too, would put aside her bitterness. People do change, and should not be punished a lifetime for mistakes they may have made during their younger and more thoughtless, selfish years.
Dear Abby: My father drowns himself in cologne after he shaves. He insists that cologne and aftershave lotion are the same thing, and he applies cologne by the handful!
My brothers, sisters, our mother and I have spoken about this, and believe me, we didnt mince any words. Dad is a high-level retail manager, and Im sure his supervisors are too polite to tell him he stinks and his subordinates are afraid to.
Perhaps if you print this. Dad will see it and cut back on the cologne. -Holding My Breath In Tennessee Dear Holding: Heres your letter. I hope it clears the air.
Dear Abby: Regarding the subject of inheritance and all the problems it can cause, I have informed my mother to spend it! Why should parents sacrifice vacations or certain material things they have wanted in order to leave money to their children?
I say, if you dont do what you want in this lifetime, when are you going to do it?
If my mother wants to leave me something. Ill take her nicked-up, well-used family dining table, or my grandmothers handmade quilt she gave my mother.

Universal Press SyndicateNeurologists Urge Great Caution
NEW YORK (AP) - The American Academy of Neurology is urging great caution in expanding the use of adrenal tissue transplants into the brain for treating Parkinsons disease.
The transplants have been performed at bout 15 centers in the United States, following initial work in Sweden and Mexico, the academy said in the December issue of Neurology. While moderate benefit has been seen among some of the more than 100 patients, the effectiveness of the procedure has not yet been, established, it said.
Parkinsons disease, often characterized by tremors, rigidity or loss of balance, results from lack of a substance called dopamine in the brain. Adrenal cells, which come J from glands atop the kidneys, are
transplanted because they produce dopamine.
Older patients and those with marginal breathing abilities have benefited less from the surgery than others, and complications such as confusion and disorientation are a serious problem, the academy said.
It would be wise to encourage further transplantation studies in animal mode s before large-scale human trials are undertaken, said Dr. Stanley van den Noort, chair-

Free Agent Chase Upping Pay...
(Continued From B-1) over three.years after hitting .276 with 47 runs batted in and no home runs. Thats $300,000 more a season than the salary of Alan Trammell, Detroits All-Star shortstop.
You see players getting dollars that are absurd. Gorman said. Some of the players have been overpriced and it impacts every other player you try to sign.
Three teams who led baseballs free^ agent revolution a dozen years ago' the New York Yankees, California Angels and San Diego Padres sparked the bidding wars this winter. To a lesser extent, the Philadelphia Phillies, Oakland Athletics, Los Angeles Dodgers and Texas Rangers got involved.
The Yankees, told by owner George Steinbrenner to overhaul their roster, signed three free agents second baseman Steve Sax for $4 million and pitchers Andy Hawkins for $3.6 million and Dave LaPoint for $2,575 million lO three-year contracts. Hawkins is the highest paid Yankee pitcher ever.
The Yankees, the most active team ever in the free agent market with 24 signings for a guaranteed $70,421 million, signed none in 1985, the first year of collusion. In 1986, they signed three, none wanted by their former clubs. Last year they broke the two-year calm, signing first baseman-outfielder Jack Clark for $3 million over^two years, the biggest deal for a free agent switching teams since before collusion, and one that helped open the market again. Then they signed two niore.
While the Yankees signed three free agents this offseason. Angels owner Gene Autry increased the price for pitchers Bruce Hubt and Nolan Ryan, even though he failed to sign them. After St. Louis bid $5.1 million for Hurst, California raised its offer from $4.9 million to $5.5 million. After Texas offered Ryan a potential $2.8 million deal for one season and an option year, California increased its offer to $3.3 million for a season and an option. Ryan settled for a one-year contract with Texas that guarantees him $2 million with the potential to earn $3.2 million if an option for 1990 is exercised.
Houston owner John McMullen began the Ryan bidding with an $800,000 offer to retain baseballs
all-time strikeout leader. McMullen raised it to $1.3 million at the last moment, but was incensed.
Were going back to the lunacy of before and it was all started by Autry, who has a love affair with Ryan, he said. The interesting thing is that he (Autry) lost out, too. That shows you what a folly it was.
San Diego bid aggressively for pitcher Mike Moore. After he signed with Oakland for $3.95 million over three years, the Padres went after Hurst and signed him for $5.25 million over three years.
Teams also are re-signing their own free agents at higher prices and for more years than at any time since 1984.
Besides Griffin, the Los Angeles Dodgers re-signed first baseman-outfielder Mike Marshall for three years at $3.5 million and pitcher Alejandro Pena for two years at $2.15 million. Oakland re-signed outfielder Dave Henderson for three years at $2.8 million and Pittsburgh re-signed pitcher Bob Walk for three years at $2.5 million.
Players dont even have to ask. San Diego this week gave outfielder Tony Gwynn an unsolicited $2 million extention for 1991 with a $2 million option for 1992 and a $325,000 signing bonus.
This is markedly different from last year, when pitcher Dave Righetti of the Yankees and third baseman Gary Gaetti of the Minnesota Twins were the only free agents to get three-year contracts. Outfielder Kirk Gibson also got three years, but his was a special case, because he was made a new-look free agent by the arbitrator in the first collusion case.
Two years ago, n offers were made to Detroits Morris, who at that point had the most victories of any pitcher in the 198()s. Raines, winner of the 1986 National League batting title, received a few offers, but all lower than the Expos bid.
Were shooting ourselves in the foot again, Cincinnatis Cook said. Theres nothing wrong with free agency. I think it was working. But when you start doing silly things again that were starting to do, I see a danger in going back right where we were.
Twins general manager Andy MacPhail couldnt comprehend the

contract of Moore, 66-96 lifetime. There was no statistical judgment for the kind of deal Mike Moore or some of the others got. The problem is when other people do it, it ultimately affects you.
When free agency began in 1976, the average salary was $51,501, according to players association figures. After that season, 24 of 25 free agents switched clubs and the average salary increased 48 percent to $76,066. It continued rising, mostly at increments of $30,000 to $40,000 per year, until 1987, after the second offseason of collusion. The average salary this year was $438,729, a 6.4 percent increase from 1987,
The effect of collusion on free agent salaries is seen most clearly in a study of salaries of players with six or more years of major league service who signed new contracts. The study includes all free agents and those eligible for free agency who re-signed before declaring.
According to the unreleased study, made available to the AP on the condition its source not be identified, players in this group increased their
salaries 74 percent for the 1981 season. In 1982, they increased their salaries 50 percent and in 1983 by 43 percent.
Then it started slowing down, with salaries of these players increasing only 9 percent in 1984 and 7 percent in 1985, before collusion began.
In 1986, salaries in this group dropped 18 percent and in 1987 by 22 percent. Figures for 1988 are not yet available, but probably will show a slight decline. From first indications, 1989 will show a sharp rise.
A major factor for the revitalized market appears to be the rulings of arbitrators Thomas Roberts and George Nicolau, who found owners guilty of conspiring against free agents after the 1985 and 1986 seasons. The union is asking for damages that could total more than $100 million. The arbitrators say they probably will begin .issuing damage awards next spring.
Several management and player officials think the market was triggered by Gibson and Clark.
On Jan. 4, Clarks agent, Tom Reich, broke off talks with St. Louis
and began discussions with Steinbrenner, a longtime friend. Two days later, Steinbrenner and Reich agreed to the $3 million contract, and Clark became the first prominent free agent to switch teams under normal circumstances since before the 1985 season.
Clarks signing came after all the premier free agents had reached or were close to agreements with their former clubs, and was too late in the offseason to affect the market. But a few weeks later, on Jan. 22, arbitrator Roberts made seven players from the 1985 collusion case new look free agents. Gibson, who had completed two years of a three-year, $4 million contract with Detroit, spurned the Tigers and agreed to a three-year, $4.5 million deal with the Dodgers.
Gibson proved worth it, leading Los Angeles to the World Series title and winning the National Leagues Most Valuable Player award. That was more impetus for the market to loosen.
Ron Shapiro, who negotiated Moores contract, said, Once the
wraps were off, clubs focused on their own needs.
Also, teams are richer awash in money, according to Donald Fehr, executive director of the Major League Baseball Players Association.
According to figures released last week by the commissioners office, baseball made a $100 million operating profit in the 12 months ending in September 1987. Just three years earlier, a study prepared for the owners had projected a $113 inil-lion loss in 1987 and a $155 million loss this year.
However, changes in salary arbitration and reducing rosters to 24 players saved owners between $20 million and $30 million this year.
Cook thinks the industry-wide profit in 1987, the first since 1973, is the major reason the free agent chase has resumed.
Most all the clubs are making money and they think, OK, well, now were making money, we can just go ahead and fire it out there and do the things we did five, seven, 10 years ago, he said.

CBS Wins Baseball Rights
Thursday Notebook:
Heat Finally Get Spark
After suffering through 17 consecutive losses, the Miami Heat finally celebrated a win Wednesday night as they slipped past the L. A. Qippers, 89-88.
The long-awaited win by the Heat wasnt secure until the Clippers Ken Norman came up short on a desperation 17-foot jumper with one second left on the clock.
The Heats losing streak was just three games shy of tying the record for most consecutive losses in a season. That mark of 20 games was set by the [the 1972-73 season.
ever was 24 games over two seasons by the Cleve-11981-82 and 1982-83.
Hornet Critics Now Quiet
Prior to the opening of the NBA season last month, the owners of the Charlotte Hornets were continuously criticized for the players brought in by the club during the expansion draft and the college draft.
Those critics are now silent.
Following its 115-106 victory over the Indiana Pacers Wednesday night, the Hornets season record stan(k at 6-13.
Not only is that quite a bit better than the mark of the 1-17 Miami Heat, this years other expansion club, but it is also better than several other already established teams.
. Other teams with v/orse records than Charlotte include the Washington Bullets, 5-14, the Indiana Pacers, 5-15 and the Sacramento Kings, 4-14.
The San Antonio Spurs are only a half game better than the Hornets with a record of 6-12, while the L.A. Clippers are 7-14.
The Dallas Mavericks, now contenders for the NBA championship, didnt even have as successful a start as the Hornets are having in their first year.
The Mavericks entered the league in 1980 and on Dec. 15 of that season, the Dallas record sttod at 4-28, a mere .125 winning percentage.
The Misplaced I-AA Final
The good news for Georgia Southern and Furman is they will battle it out this Saturday for the NCAA Division I-AA national football championship.
The bad news is the game is being played over 2,000 miles from each campus at the Milton Holt /^ena in Pocatello, Idaho.
The Eagles
21-17, while the Paladins romped to a 38-7 win over Ic Understandably, the location of the title game is selected before the season ever begins. But it seems the NCAA would take into consideration that Geogia Southern and Furman are contenders for the title year in and year out.
The Eagles have won two of the last three titles, one of which was a 44-42 win over Furman in the 1985 championship game, which, by the way, was p^yed in Tacoma, Washington.
;Taking that into consideration, maybe plans should be made to have the game played somewhere in the south in the future.
: Wolfpack Secondary Is Tops
rWhen N.C. State lines up with Iowa on New Years Eve in the Peach Bowl, iOvill do so with one of the best defensive secondaries it has had in years.
;^e current Wolfpack secondary is the best at the school in the last 23 y^rs, at least as far as interceptions are concerned. vThe 1988 Wolfpack secondary totaled 21 interceptions as a group to lead the Atlantic Coast Conference. It is the best mark achieved by State since tlte 1965 season when 23 interceptions were tallied.
HThe Wolfpack secondary is led by former West Craven standout Jesse Campbell. Campbell, who earned All-Conference and Rookie-of-the-Year honors, picked off five passes this season.
: Rushing Title Going To The Wire
:After 15 games, Hershel Walker of the Dallas Cowboys and Roger Craig of tl|e San Francisco 49ers are deadlocked for the rushing lead in the NFC with only one week left in the regular season.
Both Walker and Craig have totaled 1,451 yards this year. Walker has done S on 338 attempts, while Craig has reached the same figure on 294 attempts. ;The overall rushing leader in the NFL is the Indianapolis Colts Eric Dickerson. Dickerson currently has 1,493 yards on 352 attempts.
Walker and Craig have a legitimate shot at catching Dickerson this weekend as the Colts face the tough AFC-leading defense of the Buffalo Bills. Dallas plays the Philadelphia Eagles and the 49ers square off for the NFC West championship against the L.A. Rams.
Soviets Ready To Take Up Golf Just 10 minutes away from Red Square in the Soviet Unions capital is the workings of an American-like nine-hole golf course.
Five of the holes feature water hazards and one par 3 is played to an island green. The 2,200 square-yard clubhouse has a pro shop, a restuarant, 11 tennis courts, a swimming pool and a business club with a conference room and secretarial services.
The course is being opened up by Sven Tumba, a former Swedish hocky star who helped pioneer golf in his homeland.
The course is a joint venture between Tumba, the Moscow Sports Committee and a Finnish company. The agreement was signed in the wake of Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachevs glasnost, or openness, policy, but 'Tumbas long

Dooley Quits...
(Continued From B-l) of'Americus, Ga. I havent been contacted by anyone except sports writers.
Haffner. however, said he was very interested.
Ive conveyed my feelings to Coach Dooley and he told me to tell the selection committee, he said. In 1985, he told me I would have been the man he would have suggested then (when Dooley had fleeting thoughts on running for the U.S. Senate). 1 was interested then and Im definitely interested now. As you can imagine this is the most difficult and painful decision I and my family have ever made, Dooley said in his resignation letter, which he read at the news conference. His wife, Barbara, sitting next to him, tried to fight back tears but failed.
'The only thing that you can try to do is to leave at a time that is least disruptive to the established program, fair to the current athletes and honest with those young athletes being recruited, said Dooley, who said he made his decision to quit on Dc.8.
Dooley said recruiting was the mpin reason he announced his resignation at this time.
As for his future, he said there were several possibilities, including pdlitics.
Dooley's name has been mentioned as a possible gubernatorial candidate in 1990.
1Its obvious Im not a politician, the 56-year-old Dooley said. How-evter, I do have a strong interest in government and history. Before 1 would consider it (;iyrun for governor), I would go aroimd the state, talk to people, more injportantly, listen
to them and find out what the issues are.
Then Ill see if it's a possibility for me, he said.
Dooley indicated a decision would come after February.
I think I have a deadline here in early February (to leave as athletic director). Then Ill think of the future and should make a decision within a reasonably short time, he said.
Dooley, who began his head coaching career at Georgia in 1964 and won 200 games during the next quarter century, first thought of politics and running for the Senate in 1985, but reversed gears after three weeks.
This time, however, it could become a reality.
I, for one, hope Coach Dooley will run for governor, said Lt. Gov, Zell Miller, the only announced candidate. His candidacy would be one of the best things to happen in Georgia politics in many years. I think he would run well - about like Herschel Walker (who won a Heisman Trophy at Georgia) with fourth and goal to go.
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK - NBC and the major leagues, partners since the beginning of televised baseball, are severing their ties. CBS, which hasnt broadcast baseball since 1965, has won the network rights for $1 billion over four years.
^ NBC stunned CBS 13 days ago when it paid $401 million for the U.S. network rights to the Barcelona Olympics. CBS stunned right back Wednesday, winning the World Series, both league playoffs, the All-Star Game and a 12-game regu-lar-season package. CBSs bid was the largest by a single network in
Bob Stull Named At Missouri
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
COLUMBIA, Mo. - He turned Massachusetts into a winner and Texas-El Paso into a bowl team.
To what heights will Bob Stull take Missouri, a football program so rich with potential that Bud Wilkinson once labeled it a sleeping giant? To tell you how many games we will win next year is ridiculous, said Stull, 43, who signed a five-year contract Wednesday as Missouris 29th head football coach. 1 think well win one, he said at a news conference near the Missouri Stadium. If I say any more than that. Ill set myself up to be fired next year.
Getting fired has never been a danger for Stull, who played center for Vince Gibsons Kansas State teams in the late 1960s and served for more than a decade on Don James staff at Washington. He went 3-8 at Massachusetts his first year as a head coach in 1984, then turned it around to 74 in 1985 and left for Texas-El Paso, which since 1974 had won 15and lost 114.
The Miners went 4-8 in 1986 and 74 in 1987 and currently stand 10-2 heading into the Independence Bowl on Dec. 23 against Southern Mississippi.
We feel fortunate to have the op-jiortunity to hire an outstanding football coach like Bob Stull, athletic director Dick Tamburo said. He is recognized as a bright, innovative young coach. He has proven himself a winner.
Stull replaces Woody Widenhofer, who resigned under pressure last month with a four-year log of 12-31-1. Widenhofer, despite his lack of success on the field, had proven a good recruiter, however. He had carefully redshirted young players, many of whom were widely recruited by other Big Eight schools, and it is not thought that Stull is walking into a typical rebuilding situation.
I really dont know what happened previously. Im not sure why theyre not winning, said Stull, who will coach Texas-El Paso in the Independence Bowl. And Im not so sure Ill come up with the answers right away, either.
But I think the things we have to do to get going, is we have to get Missouri fans back in the stands. As late as the early 80s, you were still averaging over 60,000 people a game. Now youre averaging 38,000. Weve got to get the Missouri spirit going again, create the enthusiasm, and then let all that build.
Missouri has long been viewed by most college insiders as an underachiever that never taps its full Pjotential. Stull agreed that conditions seem ripe.
One thing about the University of Missouri is its the only school in the state playing major college football, and thats got to be an advantage, especially with the two large metropolitan areas of Kansas City and St. Louis just two hours away. And five million people live in the state. That is an advantage Missouri has had in the past.
Stull said he will apply the same formula that worked at Massachusetts and Texas-El Paso.
Im not a yeller and a screamer, he said. A real hard work ethic is what we are all about. We try to get them real comfortable with the tempo we want. We teach. Stull, whose name also was linked to the Stanford job this week^ admitted he will be busy wearing two hats between now and the Miners bowl appearance. After that, he will plunge into recruiting for Missouri.
Weve talked about it (with the UTEP players), and weve said all along we want to finish the season together and go ahead and go to the bowl game, he said.
the history of televised sports.
It is clearly the most exciting event, said Laurence A. Tisch, president and chief executive officer of CBS Inc. It dwarfs any other possibility.
Arthur Watson, president of NBC Sports, criticized CBS and said he was saddened by the loss.
We made every effort to keep it, Watson said. Regretfully, someone bid far more than was responsible. Everybody evaluates things differently. That bid was beyond our reach. Let them explain that bid. Neal Pilson, president of CBS Sports, did explain. And he continued the verbal warfare between the two network sports divisions.
Watson said last May that CBS overbid when it got the Albertville Winter Olympics for $243 million. Two weeks ago, Watson implied that his earlier criticism was a trap CBS fell into when it bid on the Barcelona Games.
Looking at the numbers, I think were better off spending a billion dollars over four years than half a billion over two weeks, Pilson said.
Asked if he thought Watsons remarks were uncalled for, Pilson said Wednesday: Art Watson can run his business and Ill run mine. You can ask him what happened to NBCs bid on major league baseball.
Watson would not say what NBCs bid was, but said it was substantially less than that of CBS. Television industry executives speculated that NBCs offer totalled about $800 million and ABCs about $650 million, but no one who knew the exact offers would divulge them.
Each network was delivered a bid sheet on Monday. According to Bryan Burns, baseballs senior vice president for broadcasting, the legal-sized paper contained boxes for various events. Networks could bid on combinations of shared deals or the whole thing. They also could fill in a line with their own proposals. Burns and Commissioner Peter Ueberroth said the CBS offer clearly was the most lucrative.
Brent Musburger, the likely No. 1 play-by-play man for CBS, was elated at Wednesdays turn of events.
Today was like having an early Christmas and a dream come true, said Musburger, a Midwest League umpire in 1959. Ive worked for CBS for 20 years and its the one sport we never covered. Never in my wildest dreams did I think wed get it all.
CBS got all network rights, but baseball will award cable rights next month for a package of four to five games a week, for which it is expecting an additional $75 million

The Rowdies captured the championship of the Greenville Recreation and Parks Departments Age 7-8 soccer league this fall. Members of the team are., first row, left to right: Wil Strickland, David Burroughs, Jim Capps, Andrews Beaty, Ryan Boardman; second row: William Beaty, Jeff Coleman, Jonathan Price, Stephen Harsany, Mark Jones; third row, Justin Good, Grady Nichols, Will Kitchen, Paul Larkin and coach Brian Gaiser.
to $100 million a year. Ueberroth said he had narrowed the cable bidders to four: ESPN, Turner Broadcastings TNT Network, USA Network and SportsChannel America.
The agreement with CBS was approved unanimously Wednesday in a conference call of the 26 clubowners, but many details have not been completed. Ueberroth, who wants to increase day World Series games, said that matter remained to be negotiated.
CBS officials said day games would be considered, but also said they were counting on baseball to improve the networks last-place, prime-time schedule.
Meanwhile, NBC and ABC, who have shared baseball since 1975, will televise games next season for $240 million under the final year of the current six-year, $1.1 billion deal.
Wall Street reacted positively to CBSs acquisition. CBS closed at $169.25, up $1.37'2 from Tuesday. General Electric, NBCs parent, dropped 87* 2 cents to $45.
Phil Jones, general manager of KCTV in Kansas City, Mo., and a former chairman of the CBS affiliates board, said the baseball contract bolstered his confidence in Tisch.
It demonstrates that Larry Tisch is in this business to win and people ought to quit speculating about whether he will go after premier events, Jones said.
Thomas Winner, director of media at the Campbell-Mithun-Esty advertising agency, was unsure CBS could make money on the deal.
The important fact from their point of view is they have 12 months of quality sports programming, Winner said. They are therefore the only network that can talk in that fashion.
CBS already shares rights for the NFL and holds exclusive network rights for the NBA, the NCAA basketball tournament and the U.S. Open tennis tournament. The network broadcast baseball from 1946-50 and 1955-65.

Georgetown Rolls To Win Over Pesky Oral Roberts
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Now that Georgetown has gone and played a real Division I team, the rest of college basketball has lost a little glimmer of hope.
Drats, theyre saying today, the Hoyas are just as good as everybody feared they would be.
After beating up on Hawaii-Loa, Hawaii Pacific, St. Leo and Shenen-doah, Georgetown had its coming-out party Wednesday night against Oral Roberts. The competition was stiffer - in fact, Georgetown led by only two points at one juncture in the second half - but the margin ended up being comfortable.
From here on in, a lot of the games will be tight, so its good to have a close game at this point in the season, Coach John Thompson said after the Hoyas, 5-0, dispatched the Titans 91-75.
In other games involving Top Twenty teams, No. 3 Syracuse ran away from outmanned U.S. International 135-93, No. 4 Iowa buried Central Florida 102-68, No. 12 Florida State shaded pesky South Alabama 87-82 and No. 14 Ohio State battered Nebraska 103-76.
Georgetown played in spurts against Oral Roberts, roaring to a 23-7 lead in the opening minutes and leading 45-31 at the half.
Oral Roberts came back to trail only 65-63, but Georgetown quickly ended any thoughts of upset.
We werent concerned, guard Mark Tillmon said. Weve been down before, but we didnt get worried. We just played defense. Georgetown went on a 10-1 run to lead 75-64 and Oral Roberts was finished.
Charles Smith and Jaren Jackson scored 23 points apiece for Georgetown, while Greg Sutton scored 23 for the Titans, 2-7 after a sixth straight defeat.
Their aggressiveness bothered us, Oral Roberts coach Ken Trickey said. Their press was effective, too much for us.
We need to improve every game, Thompson said. Weve played well so far, but we know any team we play can beat us if we dont play our best.
No. 3 Syracuse 135, U.S. Int. 93 Matt Roe, who scored 24 points, tied his school record by hitting six 3-pointers, all in the first half. His shooting destroyed the zone defense that U.S. International used because of it couldnt match up in a man-to-man defense.
Syracuse, shooting 70 percent, led 70-48 at the half, the most points ever for the Orangemen in the first 20 minutes of a game. The school record for points in a half is 75, set in the second half of a 1979 game
)
against Siena. It was in that game that Syracuse set a school record by scoring 144 points.
We just had too many horses for them, Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim said following his teams ninth straight win without a loss. Paul Wilson scored 30 points 18 on 3-pointers for U.S. International, 3-6.
No. 4 Iowa 102, C. Florida 68 B.J. Armstrong scored 24 points and Roy Marble 20 for Iowa, which strolled to its eighth win in as many games after leading 61-28 at the half. Iowa scored repeatedly on inside shots, getting several breakaway baskets off steals. Ed Horton was the beneficiary, particularly in the first half, when he scored 16 of his 17 points and hit atl seven of his shots from the floor.
The Knights, 0-4, were led by Ken Leeks 22 points.
No. 12 Florida St. 87, S. Alabama 82 George McCloud scored 30 points and Tony Dawson 25 for Florida State, 5-0, which saw a 13-point first-half lead wiped out by persistent South Alabama. Junie Lewis,
who scored 20 points, hit a 3-pointer to give South Alabama a 73-71 lead with 4:48 to go and a Neal Smith layup made it 75-71.
Florida State battled back to the lead at 77-76 on Derrick Mitchells baseline drive and layup with 2:53 to play.
Our kids think now that every time we get a big lead early, it will just get bigger, Florida State coach Pat Kennedy said. We lacked mental intensity tonight. South Alabama is an experienced road team and they gave us a good game.
No. 14 Ohio State 103, Nebraska 76 Tony White, a 6-foot-7 senior forward, surpassed 20 points for the first time in his career in pacing Ohio State to its fifth straight victory after a season-opening loss. White scored 21, Jay Burson added 20 and Jerry Francis 18 for the Buckeyes.
Ohio State led 8-0 in the opening minutes, but Nebraska was within 40-34 when the roof of St. John Arena figuratively fell in. Burson scored six points in a 12-1 run for a 52-35 halftime lead and the Cornhuskers, 4-3, were finished.

A Curious Twist
*
; Arafat Gets His Wish For Dialogue
PLO chairman Yasser Arafat finally got in his delayed speech to the United Nations General Assembly, but it was in Geneva where the UN convened to hear him, not New York.
' But then he also got his wish for a dialogue with the United States. That was announced by the U.S. State Department Wednesday.
Thus the diplomatic chess game involving Middle Eastern policies continues.
For Arafat it is a peace initiative, a curious twist for one who has presided over the most blatant terrorist attacks of the decade.
Arafat called for:
An effort to develop an international peace conference in Geneva.
Putting Israeli occupied Palestinian land under U.N. supervision with peacekeeping forces replacing Israeli troops.
A settlement of the Arab-Israeli differences through the international conference.
It seems so simple and if it can be done that way the world will welcome such developments.
The fact is, however, that Arafat speaks only for the PLO and not the entire Arab world, which is as diverse as European or Western hemisphere countries.
He would, of course, want to take over the occupied territories without a battle. But where would that leave Israel, which occupied the territories because, without them, it was vulnerable to attack from neighboring countries?
And who is to say that, given the Palestinian state which the PLO declared on territory it does not yet hold, Arafat will become the peace loving democratic leader he now wants to project?
It is obvious that the United States government still doesnt picture Arafat as a reformed revolutionary. Afer all, our government would not issue the visa he had to have to enter the country and speak at the U.N. headquarters.
The survival of a strong Israeli state is important to United States military interest in the Middle East. We should also support the Jewish states survival because it is right.
However, given the high stakes of the potential for Middle East war, the U.S. can never ignore any peace initiative. Thus it must explore what Arafat has to say. It has to do so with extreme caution, though. The terrorist who changes his ways is rare, indeed.

A Retread Administration
W.Dale
Nelson
WASHINGTON - President-elect Bush, who ran for the White House as a Washington insider, is staffing his administration with just what youd expect: Washington insiders.
Bushs announcement Wednesday that he is tapping Reagan administration Trade Representative Clayton Yeutter to be his secretary of agriculture is just the latest example.
He is retaining Richard Thornburgh as attorney general, Nicholas F. Brady as secretary of the treasury. Lauro Cavazos as secretary of education, William Webster as CIA director and Marlin Fitz-water as the White House spokesman.
James A. Baker III, a longtime Bush associate who served Reagan as White House chief of staff and secretary of the treasury, will be secretary of state in the new administration.
Richard Darman, an aide to Baker at both the White House and the Treasury Department, will head the Office of Management and Budget.
The national security adviser will be Brent Scowcroft, who had the same job in the Ford administration.
It is not unheard of for newly elected presidents to pick people with Washington experience to do Washington jobs.
But no administration in recent memory has had so many retreads as the one now shaping up.
. I think they are his kind of people, said Austin Ranney, chairman of the Department of Political Science at the University of California. George Bush is an old Washington hand and these are the people he feels comfortable with.
Bushs whole argument this fall was Tm the insider, I understand how government works, I can handle things, said David Caputo, professor of political science and dean of humanities at Purdue University.
That campaign contrasted sharply with those of his two predecessors.
Ronald Reagan ran as the ultimate Washington outsider, often telling audiences that government, far from being the solution to their problems, was part of the problem.
Even Reagan picked some veterans of the Washington scene. His first secretary of defense, for instance, was fellow Californian Caspar Weinberger, who had been budget director and secretary of health, education and welfare in the Nixon administration. Most of his initial choices, however, were people^
like Donald T. Regan, picked to be treasury secretary after a career on Wall Street, and William Clark, who jumped from a seat on the California Supreme Court to the No. 2 job in the State Department.
Jimmy Carter, the former Georgia governor and peanut farmer, also took pride in his status as a stranger to the Washington scene.
Carter aide Hamilton Jordan said before the election:
If, after the inauguration, you find a Cy Vance as secretary of state and Zbigniew Brzezinski as head of national security, then I would say we failed. And Id quit. But thats not going to happen.
It did happen, and he didnt quit.
But Vance, a former secretary of the Army and deputy secretary of defense, and Brzezinski, an academic with strong ties to the Washington foreign policy establishment, were also exceptions.
More typical of Carters choices was Bert Lance, the Georgia banker he chose to head the Office of Management and Budget.
Regan, Clark and Lance all had their troubles in Washington.
Regan, the former Wall Street executive, was fired as Reagans chief of staff after a presidential board blamed him for many of the White
Houses troubles in the Iran-Contra affair.
Clark, the former California judge, was ridiculed after he was unable, in his Senate confirmation hearings, to name the prime minister of South Africa or express a view on nuclear nonproliferation, foreign aid or U.S. relations with Third World countries. He was confirmed anyway and satisfied Reagan well enough that the president later made him national security adviser and then secretary of the interior.
Lance left the Carter administration under a cloud of alleged past banking irregularities, then was acquitted of those charges by a federal grand jury.
Clark and Lance were past associates in state government of the former governors who appointed them people they knew and trusted.
Bushs background for the past 20 years has been in the Washington orbit.
He, too, however, apparently wants some familiar faces around him.
Many of the people he knows well personally and he probably implicitly trusts them, said political scientist Caputo.

Robert
Gilmour
Like the sequel to a bad horror movie, the federal deficit is back -awesome and even worse than anyone will admit.
Instead of debating over grand new programs, concern must center on how to pay for what we already have at a time when Congress can not so easily hide major expenditures outside the budget. Even scarier, in political terms, the claims of millions of Americans entitled to nearly half the federal budget without regard to need -re pressed ever closer to a major and inevitable readjustment.
The $100 billion maximum deficit permitted next year by the Gramm-Rudman-Hollings law (with $10 billion leeway) is likely to be overshot by $30-40 billion or even more. That would put next years deficit at more than $130 billion and the total national debt at $2.74 trillion.
For sound political purposes, the official federal deficit is stated only in cash terms - dollars paid for programs, contracts, transfers and interest set against receipts from taxes, borrowing and repayments. The governments increasing obligations to pay for military and civil service pensions. Social Security retirement, medical and disability benefits and loan guarantees of many kinds are simply left off the ledger until actually paid.
The public accounting company of Arthur Anderson & Co. estimates that the real deficit for fiscal year 1988 is not the mere $155.1 billion reported by the federal Office of Management and Budget but about $350 billion, if future liabilities are counted. Instead of the widely lamented $2.61 trillion total federal
debt, the actual total is closer to five times that amount.
No political leader has had the incentive to tackle, even to acknowledge, the real federal deficit, let alone take on the structural debt.
Spending cuts have been the targeted solution. But deficit fighters will be harder pressed than ever to find congressional votes to cut the 12 percent of the budget that' remains after entitlements, defense spending and interest on the national debt are factored out. Such programs have already been hit hard by budget cuts of the Reagan era.
Defense is a tempting target, but the massive military buildup in the early 1980s was followed by a four-year decline in defense spending. Current defense expenditures as a percent of the gross national product are now lower than they were in any year from 1950 to 1973. Bush promises to stop that trend and most members of Congress, whose states face imminent base closings, threatened defense contracts and the prospect of thousands of lost jobs are reluctant to disagree.
The most bountiful target has never been hit benefit payments
to individuals without regard to need. Last year the federal government doled out about $480 billion, or about 47 percent of the budget, in cash payments, food stamps, rent subsidies and the like. Of that total, 85 percent went to people who were not living in poverty. Non-poor taxpayers made involuntary transfers to beneficiaries who were also not poor and to some who were even wealthy.
The greatest proportion of that money were payments made by Social Security and that host of benefit programs now doted on
Americas least impoverished age class, the elderly. Politically, 37 million Americans receiving Social Security benefits cant be wrong. Or can they?
Questions should be raised when nearly 60 percent of all federal benefits are paid without regard for need to the 12 percent of the population 65 and over, especially when the return those individuals realize from Social Security and Medicare is actually five to 10 times greater than their prior contributions. No real pension plan or insurance program could survive such actuarially unsound discrepancies between contributions and benefits.
The cost must be borne by Americas poorest class, its children. We now direct, on average, about $9,500 a year in federal benefits to each elderly American (largely consumption). In contrast, we direct less than $950 in federal benefits, including aid to education, to each American child (largely investment), noted former Secretary of Commerce Peter G. Peterson.
Americans sympathy for the elderly poor and enfeebled is genuine and well placed. Images of desolate nursing homes produce a guilty willingness to pay an average of 13 percent of our current pay to Social Security w'ith few complaints.
But there are also the young elderly, like Aunt Minnie who has recently returned from Europe and now plans a summer at the shore; who banks her Social Security checks and complains that the twice-annual cost of living allowances dont really keep up with inflation. Meanwhile, individuals in their late 20s and early 30s can barely afford to pay the rent in shared apartments. They cant imagine how they will ever managed to buy a
house. Minnies is nearly empty and paid for long ago.
Today there are 3.3 young, taxpaying producers for every one Aunt Minnie. In 30 years the ratio will be 2.3-1. The cost of maintaining current levels of Social Security benefits is estimated to reach 26 percent of every workers pay until 2020 and 36 percent by 2040. Such rates of transfers from young producers to elderly consumers cannot be sustained. The question is when they will be capped and on what terms.
In the meantime. Congress and several acquiescent presidents have demonstrated determination and skill at finding alternatives to answering this question by hiding federal spending outside the budget.
Through a variety of government-sponsored private enterprises, special treasury borrowing rights and implied guarantees, accounting gimmicks and mandates to states, municipalities and corporations, Congress has been able to pursue public purposes without visible spending. But the spending is rtonetheless real.
Hiding federal spending reduces neither the deficit nor the drain on national productivity. You can hide, to be sure. But you cannot run a government this way indefinitely.
Spending money to be paid by posterity, Thomas Jefferson once said, ... is but swindling futurity on a large scale. In this case the magnitude of the swindle is so large and fast advancing that it could well be paid by the dislocation and suffering of our own generation.

25CU.S. Will Deal Directly With Arafats PLO
By Barry Schweid
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON - The Reagan administration has reversed its historic policy toward Yasser Arafats Palestine Liberation Organization by declaring it is ready for substantive dialogue with the group the United States has long denounced as a terrorist outcast on the world scene.
The announcement Wednesday .night left Israel in diplomatic isolation and came just a few hours after President-elect' Bush had taken a tough line against the PLO, declar
ing that it had not met U.S. conditions for direct dealings.
But President Reagan and Secretary of State George P. Shultz said that Arafat, in statements made in Geneva about the same time that Bush was speaking, had met the U.S. conditions for a substantive dialogue a form of diplomatic acceptance long sought by the Palestinian group.
Opening meetings will be conducted in Tunis, where the PLO has its headquarters, by U.S. Ambassador Robert H. Pelletreau Jr.
Only a day earlier, the State Department had said Arafat failed to meet the U.S. conditions. And less
Tobacco Quota Going Up 18 Pet.
By John Bare
THE DAILY REFLECTOR
A move by the U.S. Department of Agriculture to increase next years flue-cured tobacco quota by 18 percent will give the average Pitt County farmer nine additional acres of tobacco, local agriculture officials said.
The 18 percent increase is a little higher than I first anticipated it would be, said Mitch Smith, acting director of the Pitt County Agricul-turail Extension Service.
For the average Pitt County tobacco farmer, it means an extra nine acres that he will be forced to deal with in his management.
I feel that it is more critical now
than ever before that growers evaluate their current operation and make decisions based on responsible records, Smith said.
The USDAs announcement Wednesday means the flue-cured quota will be increased for the second straight year, after a dozen years of stagnation when surplus tobacco piled up in storage and many farmers saw red ink.
The Associated Press has reported that flue-cured tobacco farmers are expected to net about $313 million from their 1989 sales. Support prices are also expected to rise about 2.6 cents per pound to $1,468.

Mail Clerk Shoots 3 Fellow Workers
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW ORLEANS - An angry mail handler shot and wounded three fellow workers, holed up through the night with two hostages, and held off police until mid-morning today when h finally surrendered, officials said.
He just came out, said Nancy Fischer, an FBI spokeswoman.
She said he was talked out. No shots were fired.
The two women who were hostages during the 13-hour siege showed no signs of injury but met with doctors for an examination, she said.
The man. wielding a shotgun loaded with birdshot, had chased off FBI agents with gunfire earlier when they cornered him in a room used for coffee breaks in the building, said Volney Hayes, spokesman for the FBI in an adjacent building.

than three weeks ago, Shultz had accused the PLO of terrorism and said Arafat was an accessory to such terrorism.
Shultz, asked Wednesday if he had changed his mind on that subject, said the PLO had issued a statement Wednesday that was clear; it was not encumbered.
He said Arafats group had accepted U.N. Security Council resolutions 242 and 338, recognized Israels
019e8AccuWathw.lnc
right to exist in peace and security, and renounced terrorism.
As a result, Shultz said, the United States is prepared for a substantive dialogue with PLO representatives.
Bush just a few hours earlier had demanded that the PLO satisfy U.S. demands.
. I want a clear statement on renunciation of terror, Bush said. I want a very clear, unambiguous statement on the right of Israel to
exist as a state, and I want a clear endorsement of Security Council resolution 242.
Bushs spokesman, Stephen Hart, said late Wednesday night the vice president feels that Arafat met the conditions and he supports the decision.
The U.N. resolutions, adopted in 1%7 and 1973, affirm the right of all states in the Middle East to live in peace. Israel is not specifically mentioned.
Reagans decision put to an end decades of U.S. isolation of the Palestinian group and shocked the Israeli government. The Israeli embassy called it regrettable and said
More gunfire erupted today when the gunman, Warren Murphy, apparently became frustrateil and fired about 10 shots, Hayes said.
No one was hurt, and none of the earlier shooting victims suffered life-threatening wounds.
They were just random shots, Hayes said. They havent been at anyone... just stick the barrel under the door and fire.
Gunfire hit the telephone officers and relatives had used to try to talk Murphy into surrendering. Another phone was tossed to him.
Hostage negotiators and Murphys relatives this morning urged him to surrender. One negotiator was Murphys cousin, a New Orleans police officer, authorities said.
Murphy had made only one demand since the siege began Wednesday night, telling negotiators he didnt want to see any news reporters. Police moved all reporters and photographers off the sidewalk to a parking garage across the street.
Cesta Ayers, a spokesman for the post office, said 500 night shift workers were evacuated.
Murphy, who is about 40, was a six-year mail handler who had recently been promoted but was rumored to be suffering marital problems, Ayers said.
The information we have at this time... is that his wife did leave him and left the city, Ayers said.

MOSCOW - Lt. Gen. Mikhail Moiseyev, commander of Soviet forces in the Far East, has been named the Red Armys new chief of staff, the official army newspaper Red Star reported today.
Moiseyev succeeds Marshal Sergei F. Akhromeyev whose retirement was announced Dec. 7 by Soviet officials in New York the same day President Mikhail S. Gorbachev announced unilateral cuts in Soviet conventional forces in a speech to the U.N. General Assembly.
The brief announcement of Moiseyevs appointment, which showed the commander in a uniform covered with medals, was published on the front page of Red Star along with the first public reference to Akhromeyevs retirement.

Akeem Moore, 3, discovers that a tall trash can is an ideal place to sit and watch the Bethel Christmas Parade. Waiting patiently with Akeem for the activities to begin Wednesday are Susan Moore, left, and Climie Jenkins.

Moiseyev succeeds Marshal Sergei Akhromeyev who has been relieved of these duties in connection with his transfer to another job. the newspaper said. It did
not elaborate. ^ ^
Foreign Ministry spokesman Gennady I. Gerasimov said in New York last week that Akhromeyev was stepping down for unspecified health reasons but would stay on as an advisor to Gorbachev.
Akhromeyev had been on record as opposing unilateral Soviet troop cuts. .
Moiseyev, who will also serve as first deputy minister of defense, had commanded the forces of the Far Eastern Military District since January 1987, Red Star said.
Born into a working class family in 1939, Moiseyev joined the Soviet army in 1958 and was graduated from the Frunze Military Academy and the military academy of the armed forces general staff.

Israel will pursue its policy of searching for peaceful solutions to the conflict through direct negotiar tions with Palestinian Arabs and with Jordan, an Israeli statement said.
Later, the Israeli ambassador, Moshe Arad, said he did not detect anything new in Arafats statement, and did not see how it differed from previous statements by the PLO chairman that had been found inadequate.

N.Y. Court Sets Bond For Jacobs At $50,000
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
A New York magistrate today set bond for North Carolina Indian fugitive Timothy Jacobs at $50,000, with the possibility that it could be reduced to $25,000 if he resides on a nearby reservation.
His bail has been set at $50,000, but with the stipulation that if he resides on the Onandaga Reservation and we get an affidavit from the chief there to make him available to us for court dates, it will be reduced to $25,000, Madison County Sheriff Robert Ryan said.
We need the agreement with Chief Shenandoah so we will not have to go onto the reservation to pick him up, Ryan said. An affidavit from the chief would more or less make him responsible for Mr. Jacobs and keep us from having a jurisdictional problem.
Ryan said extradition did not come up at todays bond hearing, but Jacobs will fight being returned to North Carolina to face 14 counts of kidnapping in the Feb. 1 takeover of The Robesonian newspaper in Lumberton, N.C.
John Simmons of the North Carolina Attorney Generals Office said N)Bw York officials should have all the extradition paperwork by today, but a hearing is unlikely before the holidays.
We are told by the district attorney up there that it would probably be the first of the year before a bond hearing can be be held, Simmons said. "But they should have everything they need by today.
Attorneys Barry Nakell and Allen Gregory of Christie Institute South hand-delivered a seven-page letter to Gov. Jim Martins office in Raleigh on Wednesday, asking that Martin drop extradition proceedings against Jacobs.
The two lawyers claim that Jacobs fled after being indicted Dec. 6 because he feared for his life. The letter also accused the SBI and local law enforcement officers of intimidating Robeson County residents.
For the governor to ignore what is obviously an escalation of intimidation and harassment of the community. for him to ignore that would be really ta make himself in collusion with the very forces that are doing it now. Gregory said at a news

CHARLOTTE - Defrocked PTL leader Jim Bakker said he was simply trusting God as he and a top aide were freed on $50,000 unsecured bond on charges they and two other ministry einployees diverted more than $5 million to finance lavish lifestyles.
U.S. Magistrate Paul Taylor continued an arraignment for Bakker and co-defendant Richard Dortch until Jan. 17. when bpth men will
enter pleas and a trial date will be scheduled.
Bakker, accompanied by chief counsel George T. Davis and other attorneys, smiled and waved to reporters as he arrived at the federal courthouse in a white Cadillac.
Bakkers wife, Tammy, did not accompany him to court.
Bakker, Dortch, David Taggart and James Taggart were indicted Dec. 5, after a 16-month federal grand jury investigation into how PTL operated under Bakkers leadership in the 1980s.
Dortch is Bakkers former top deputy. David Taggart is Bakkers former personal aide, and James Taggart is PTLs former interior decorator.
The Taggarts, accompanied by attorney Ben Gotten, made no statement before entering the courthouse. Gotten indicated the two might enter a plea today.
Bakker and Dortch are charged with mail fraud and wire fraud. They are also accused of conspiring to defraud PTL contributors to support lavish and extravagant lifestyles and of diverting more than
$4 million in PTL money for their personal benefit.
The Taggarts are charged with tax evasion and conspiring to impede the IRS in tax collection. They , are accused of using more than $1,1 million in PTL money for personal expenditures.
Jim Toms, one of Bakkers attorneys, said he does not expect his client to enter a plea until next month. Toms has said previously that Bakker would plead innocent to all charges.
Hes reconciled to having to deal with the process, said Jim Toms.
who described Thursdays hearing as completely routine.
Bakker. 48, resigned as PTL president in March 1987 in the wake of a sex-and-money scandal involving Jessica Hahn. Three months later, PTL filed for bankruptcy protection.
On Tuesday, Canadian real estate magnate Stephen Mernick bought the assets of PTL for $65 million.
Mernick, 34, an Orthodox Jew from Toronto, bought the assets at a hearing before U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Rufus Reynolds in Columbia, S.C., who had indicated he was hoping to get $75 million. ^
