Mall anchor stores appeal assessmentsBy Alex Qirelli Manchester Herald

Two anchor stores in the mall in Buckland have appealed the tax as­sessments p la c ^ on their mall properties by the town tax assessor.

The appi^s, from G.Fbx and Steiger’s, were presented to the Board of Tax Review at a meeting Wednesday.

The assessment for G. Fox for land, buildings and improvements is $3,973,670. That was the tax value of the property as of Oct. 1„1989 in the view of the assessor’s office.

The assessment being appealed by Steiger’s is $2,038,450.

The Board of Tax Review took no action on the appeals and will meet Saturday from 9 to 11 a.m. to con­sider the appeals and others presented Wednesday, Thursday and tonight from 7 p.m. to 8 pjn. in the office of the assessor.

Betty Sadloski, chairman of the Board of Tax Review, said today that G. Fox representatives said they had more data to submit in connec­tion with their appeal of the assess­ment.

But Sadloski said the Tax Review Board must base its decision only on the data presented to it, and it must decide Saturday to meet its deadline.

That combination of circumstan­ces makes it likely that there will be

a court appeal of the assessments.G. Fox and Steiger’s are tentative­

ly scheduled to open early next month.

The mall, called the I^vilions at Buckland Hills, is the second largest taxpayer on the 1989 Grand List w ith a to ta l assessm en t of $19,257,720 as of Oct. 1.1989.

In all, the Grand List increased by more than $55 million with most of the increase coming from the con­struction of the mall and surround­ing development.

In addition to G. Fox and Steiger’s, other anchor stores in the mall include Sage-AIlen, Sears Roebuck & Co. and D&L Stores.

Ethics commission rejects conflict case against IrishBy Rick Santos Manchester Herald

In a split vote Thursday night, the town Ethics Commission decided not to hold a hearing on the com­plaint of a town citizen against Wal­lace J. Irish Jr., a Republican mem­ber of the town’s Board of Direc­tors.

The complaint, filed by Seymour Kudlow, charged that Irish had a conflict of interest when, in Novem­ber, he voted in favor of extending the lease for the Manchester CounU7 Club, which operates a golf course on town property. Kudlow originally charged Irish had a con­flict because he is a member of the country club, and added Thursday

that Irish owns land adjacent to the club.

Although the 3-3 vote indicates the ethics panel did not find suffi­cient evidence to hear the complaint. Democratic commission member Sol Cohen said “It is regrettable and with poor judgment that Mr. Irish voted.”

The commission must suspect evidence of financial gain in order to hear a conflict case. Voting in favor of the failed motion to hear the case were Democrats Kenneth Ted- ford and Anne Campbell-Maxwell and unaffiliated member Robert Franklin. Voting against the motion were Cohen, and Republicans Mary Sears and Jonathan Mercier.

Kennelly bows out of raceBy Judd Everhart The Associated Press

HARTFORD — Top Connec­ticut Democrats, including Gov. William A. O’Neill and the party chairman, say U.S. Rep. Barbara B. Kennclly’s announcement that she won’t run for governor has no real effect on the race.

But U.S. Rep. Bruce A. Mor­rison, who’s challenging O’Neill for the Democratic nomination this year, believes Kennelly’s decision can only help him. The decision probably closes the door on any attempt by state Rep. James R. McCavanagh, D- Mancheslcr, to run for Congress this year. McCavanagh had said he would consider rutming for Kcnnclly’s scat if she chose to run for governor.

Meanwhile, state Rep. Miles S. Rapoport, D-West Hartford, who’s already raised $75,000 an­ticipating that Kcnnclly’s seat would open up, says he’s not convinced that her decision is final.

On Thursday, Kennedy, who was widely seen as a candidate for governor should O’Neill not seek re-cicetion, said she would not run for the office this year, even if O’Neill drops out.

“I am making it very clear today that I will not for any reason be a candidate in 1990 for governor,” the four-term con­gresswoman from Hartford said. “I’m just not a candidate, I’m not available as a candidate and I want very much to stay where 1 am in the United States Con­gress.”

She said she was also con­cerned that she’d lose what she’s

Dobkin, a Republican named chair­man Thursday, abstained because he is a member of the country club.

Irish’s vole at the Nov. 21 meet­ing came a short time after Kudlow publicly asked him to abstain.

Cohen also said that Irish’s decision to vote shows “disdain, ar­rogance, and bravado.” However, he voted against holding a hearing, saying that would be inconsistent with a vote he cast involving then Mayor Peter P. DiRosa Jr. DiRosa, a Democrat who is a town director, had voted in favor of a plan to reconsUTict Main Street while he owned a cleaning business there.

Safety awareness credited for lowest road death rateBy John Flesher The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The 1980s ended with the lowest annual traffic death rate ever, capping a decade in which many Americans declared war on drunken driving and began using long-ncglcctcd safety belts, federal officials say.

The 1989 fatality rale was 2.2 deaths per 100 million miles uavclcd, down from 2.3 the pre­vious year and one-third lower than the 1980 rate of 3.3, the National Highway Traffic Safety Adminisua- tion reported.

Fatalities in 1989 are estimated at 45,500, compared with 47,093 in 1988. Final numbers for last year arc

still being tallied but arc unlikely to change significantly, officials said.

“The reduction in traffic deaths during the 1980s reflects our nation­al resolve against drunk driving, in­creased safety belt use and a generally heightened awareness of highway safety,” Transportation Secretary Samuel K. Skinner said Thursday.

The death rate probably will con­tinue downward in the 1990s, even if more miles arc driven, as the government expands safety regula­tions and the automobile industry makes vehicles more crashworthy, officials said.

“This means that American motorists are less at risk than ever before," NHl'SA adminisuator Jerry

R. Curry said.The fatality rate is the most wide­

ly accepted measure of highway safety trends, Curry said. It takes into account changes in miles driven from year to year, and even a slight increase or decrease can reflect a difference of thousands of lives.

If last year’s rate were the same as in 1980. for example, the number of deaths would have been 69,800 instead of 45,500.

The highest fatality rate on record is 24.1 deaths per 100 million miles in 1921, the first year the govern­ment attempted to establish a rate, NHTSA spokesman Tim Hurd said. By 1940, when statistics were more

Lawmakers to lobby for schoolsBy Nancy Foley Manchester Herald

D e m o c r a t i c m e m b e r s of Manchester’s legislative delegation pledged Thursday night to work to restore funding for education at the state level by uying to divert funds from other areas of the governor’s budget.

But some members of the audience said the problem can only be solved locally by raising taxes while others decried the increases in teachers’ salaries and benefits that they say are the cause of the budget crisis.

State Sen. Michael P. Mcotti, D- Glastonbury, and Democratic state Reps. John W. Thompson and James R. M c C a v a n a g h , b o t h of

Manchester, met with members of the Board of Fxlucation as well as several town directors at the Lincoln Center to discuss proposed cuts in the state Education Cost Sharing Grant.

Under a new formula used to cal­culate the state grant, the town will receive about $1.6 million less than it would have received under the previous formula.

The decrease comes at a time when the town is obligated to pay increases in teachers’ salaries and the Board of Directors is conuollcd by Republicans who pledged during their campaign not to raise taxes. The Board of Education budget now is $45.3 million.

Manchester was one of the towns hardest hit by the change in the grant fomiula, Thompson said.

But he said it is very unlikely the problem will be solved by the

Victor LaskyWASHINGTON (AP) — Victor

Lasky, a journalist and author known for his vitriolic anti-com­munism, died Thursday of cancer at age 72.

Lasky joined The New York World-Telegram after World War II and helped write a Pulitzer Prize­winning series on Communist in­filtration of American institutions. He covered the trial of former State Department official Alger Hiss and co-authored a book about the case, “Seeds of Treason.”

He wrote several biographies, in­cluding “J.F.K.: The Man and the Myth,” “Robert F. Kennedy: The M ^ and the Myth” and books about Supreme Court Justice Arthur Goldberg, actor George Murphy, Jimmy Carter and Henry Ford II.

In 1952, a documentary he wrote for MGM, “The Hoaxters,” was nominated for an Academy Award.

In his later years, he wrote for Accuracy in Media, a rightist watchdog organization that claims the news media are infected with a leftist bias.

Police RoundupDrunken driving charged

A Colchester man assaulted a police officer and then tried to escape arrest early this morning after being pulled over for drunken driving, police said.

Craig Eisman, 23, was driving on Purnell Place shortly after midnight when police asked him to perform on- the-spot sobriety tests, police said.

Suddenly, Eisman assaulted the officer and tried to es­cape, police said. The officer, who was not injured, caught Eisman, police said.

Eisman was charged with interfering with a police of­ficer, driving while intoxicated and assault on a police officer, police said. He was released on $5,000 bond and is scheduled to appear in Manchester Superior Court, police said.

Under the state’s new drunk driving law, police issued Eisman a temporary driver’s license for 35 days. After that, Eisman will lose his right to drive for at least three months unless he proves he was not intoxicated at the time of the arrest, police said.

MANCHESTER/COVENTRY_______________Coventry school board shaves $400,000 from budgetBy Jacquelihe Bennett Manchester Herald

COVENTRY — After close to three hours of debate Thursday, the Board of Education adopted a $10,142,440 budget, an increase of 14.1 percent for the next fiscal year.

While the board restored some tentative cuts it had made Hiesday, it voted Thursday to eliminate a transitional grade program in the

- elementary schools. In all, the board cut about $400,000 from School Su­perintendent Michael Malinowski’s request of $10,535,855.

The vote was 5-2 in favor of the

budget, which next will go to the Town Council then a town meeting for approval. .

Board Chairman I^trick Flaherty, a Democrat, said a final figure had not been calculated for the adopted budget. He added th a t the $10,142,440 amount was probably accurate.

The $10.1 million budget for fis­cal 1990-91 is up from tliis year’s budget of $8,891,212. It would mean a mill rate hike of 3.5, or an extra $3.50 in tax dollars for every thousand dollars worth of taxable property, Flaherty said.

■rhe four Democrats on the board.

Flaherty, Vice-Chairwoman Judy Halvorson, Kathleen Ryan and Hud Manzone voted to pass the budget along with Republican m em ^r Wendy McMahon.

Republican members Pamela Sewell and Constance Lathrop op­posed it.

Both said they think it is too high.“I know the (town) council won’t

pass it,” Sewell said.During the meeting, the board

restored two positions it had agreed to cut at a special meeting on l\ies- day.

'The board had cut a guidance secretary position at Coventry High School and one of three physical

education teachers at Capt. Nathan Hale School. 'The board restored the positions after it heard pleas from the women who hold those jobs. But the guidance secretary position, which had been full time, was made a half-time position.

“On Diesday night at 11 p.m. you say ‘yes’ ... on Thursday morning you think, ‘did I do the right thing?’” said Ryan, asking that some cuts be reconsidered.

Ryan and others said guidance is a critical area the board had wanted to beef up. They also said the cuts in physical education could mean the h i ^ school soccer and baseball var­

sity boys’ teams would no longer be co ach ^ by Robert Plaster. He would have been reassigned to a dif­ferent grade level. Many said that would be a loss to the high school sports program.

Malinowski tried to stand his ground on recommended personnel cuts such as all 12.5 non-special education teacher aides, but failed. Instead, the board cut 6.5 aide posi­tions. School administrators from all four schools showed little support for Malinowski.

'The board eliminated a transition­al grade program, a grade between kindergarten and grade one, for young.sters not ready for grade one.

Halvorson said the slate Depart­ment of Education frowns on such programs because they segregate certain pupils from others. "Ibat cut saved $<58,100 for two teachers and one aide.

Cuts made Tliesday that were ap­proved again Thursday are a h i^ school career education teacher, $10,554, and a business teacher, $44,400, both at the high school; a new half-time secretary at Coventry Grammar School; $130,055 in in­structional supplies, textbooks, library b<x)ks, heat and energy and other equipment; and some funds from assemblies and travel.

FitzGerald resigns on note of adviceBy Rick Santos Manchester Herald

Before stepping down as town Ethics Com­mission Chairman Thursday bight, William FitzGerald advised members to reconsider their vote last month that he says discourages, if not bars, lawyers from joining town boards and commissions.

“I have great problems in eliminating a class of people,” said FitzGerald, a lawyer himself.

FitzGerald, a Democrat, has suggested in news stories that the controversial advisory vote on Jan. 4 be reexamined, but until now has not made that request to the commission.

In the questioned vote, the commission ruled against issuing a favorable advisory opinion to attorney 'Thomas Celia, also a Democrat. He had asked the commission whether his appoint­ment to the same ethics panel would constitute a conflict of interest because he works for a law firm that represents clients in cases involving the town.

FitzGerald said at the meeting in the Lincoln Center gold room that Celia could have served on the commission and avoided conflicts by dis­qualifying himself from votes and discussions pertaining to his firm or its clients.

“I am concerned about ethical standards that scare away good people in the community,” he said.

FitzGerald, who had abstained from the Celia vote because he had been a partner in the law firm for which Celia works, said Thursday that several lawyers have called him since the vote to express reservations about serving on any voluntary boards and commissions.

He also said the vote contradicted previous commission decisions.

Commission members whose votes con­flicted with FitzGerald’s opinion defended their positions, saying it would be unwise to endorse appointing a member who might have to abstain from many votes, especially because the seven- member panel needs five voles in favor of a decision for it to be approved.

FitzGerald concludtid by saying, “I think the Ethics Commission needs now a set of

guidelines.”On a more positive note for the ethics panel,

he said, “I leave here with no hard feelings and a very high regard for the commission.” He said earlier that “reasonable minds can differ.”

FitzGerald had been chairman since the com­mission began work in April of 1979. Forma­tion of the commission was a provision in­cluded in revisions adopted in 1978 to the Town Charter.

In a related matter 'Thursday, Town Attorney Maureen Chmielecki provid^ members with documents about ethics decisions and regula­tions elsewhere in Connecticut, and recom­mended they be studied before any ethics regulations are proposed.

Sol Cohen, a commission member who is a Democrat, asked if the task would be in vain because there have been suggestions that the rules should be examined by a charter revision commission.

However, Chmielecki said she thinks such a commission would consider suggestions from the ethics panel.

Cohen ^so questioned the attorney about the commission’s limits in rewriting ^ e regula­tions.

She said the only rules they cannot establish are any that would violate the charter or state statutes.

Chmielecki also offered to research legal is­sues for commission members, but suggested they seek an attorney who is not on the commis­sion.

Republican commission member Jonathan Mcrcier was asked to review the thick stack of documents the attorney disuibuted and sum­marize them to the commission.

Before FitzGerald resigned, M. Adler Dob- kin, a longtime Republican member of the com­mission, was elect^ its new chairman.

“1 don’t think you could’ve chosen a better person as chairman,” FitzGerald said about Dobkin, who was nominated by Robert Franklin.

Franklin, an unaffiliated member, recom­mended Dobkin “because of his long service and dedication.”

Fileprioio

RESIGNS — William E. FitzGerald, chairman of the Ethics Commission, resigned Thursday from the commis­sion. He urged commission members to reconsider a decision in which they said a local attorney might face a con­flict if he served on the commission.

School bus contract OK’d in Coventry

By Jacqueline Bennett Manchester Herald

COVENTRY — Despite a stormy relationship with Madison-based Laidlaw Transit Inc., the Board of Education voted 'Thursday night to approve a new three-year contract with the bus company.

The vote was split along party lines during the meeting at Coventry High School with the Democrats, chairman Pauick Flaherty, Judy Hal­vorson, Kathleen Ryan and Raul Manzone, voting for the contract.

Republicans Ramela Sewell, Con­stance L ath rop and Wendy McMahon voted against it.

“Is it imperative the contract be awarded this evening? Can we wail until April ... I have a real problem with this,” said McMahon.

She along with the o ther Republicans had favored the town purchasing and operating its own buses. In addition, she cited problems the town has had with Laidlaw and said. “We end up with egg on our face.”

The town has had ongoing problems over the past two years with delays in bus <runs, and school officials have complained of alleged poor maintenance and poor service from Laidlaw.

When the board went out to bid for a new contract, only Laidlaw pul in a bid.

Ryan, chairwoman of the board’s transportation committee, had voiced doubts on previous occasions about staying with Laidlaw. She made the motion to approve the con­tract.

School Superintendent Michael Malinowski said he believes Laid­

law has “the resources to deliver” with improved communication be­tween the company and school offi­cials.

The contract amount will be negotiated dependent upon the num­ber and type of buses, according to Ryan.

Sewell said the cost will be in the range of $390,000 to $490,000.

The board also requested the routes be “substantially overhauled” to improve service.

Three Laidlaw representatives at­tended. In the past, they have said problems were due to difficulty get­ting drivers. However, Mike Collins, district manager for the bus com­pany, said this year there has been less turnover.

Collins noted that Malinowski has said things were improving. Collins added he believes the company is now working well with the b ^ d .

Malinowski recommended the board go with Laidlaw and opposed town-owned buses, saying at this time it would require all the ad­ministrators’ time and attention to implement for the next school year.

Malinowski said if the board delayed on a contract decision, it could end up without transportation

In another matter, the b ^ d un­animously approved a trip for 17 Capt. Nathan Hale seventh- and eighth-graders to the Soviet Union in July.

The trip is being organized by teacher Thomas Dzicek, who said he will try to raise needed money from corporate contributions.

TTie trip involves an exchange with Soviet students visiting Coventry in September. Students from both countries will stay with host families during their visits.

Company to reward volunteers and social service organizationsBy Alex Girelli Manchester Herald

Manchester volunteers stand a chance to win contribu­tions for the organizations they serve, including a nation­al award of $10,000, from J.C. Penney under a program announced lYiday by the manager of the firm’s Catalog Distribution Center in town.

Manager Thomas VandenBush described the award program at a gathering of about 40 representatives of so­cial service organizations.

Under the program, one adult and one youth winner of the Itxal “Golden Rule Award” will get $1,000 contribu­tions for their organizations. Four other Tmalists for the adult awards program will get $250 contributions to their organizations.

Robert B. Weiss, former town manager, will head a panel of five people who will select the local winners from among volunteers nominated by the community.

Others on the panel are Hanna Marcus, the town’s Director of Human Services; Anne Flint, president of the Greater Manchester Chamber of Commerce; John Crowley, a sociology professor at Manchester Com­munity College; and Deborah Walsh, vice president of Volunteer Services, United Way of the Capital Area.

Nominees do not have to be Manchester residents, but their volunurer service must be foi an organization that serves the town.

Nomination forms can be obtained from the catalog desks of J.C. Penney stores and will be available from local volunteer agencies. Nominations must be sent to the Golden Rules Awards, The Voluntary Action Center, 99 Woodland St., Hartford 06105. They must be postmarked or submitted no later than March 31.

The local awards will be p r in te d May 3 at a ceremony at the Manchester Country Club.

On the national level, the top wiimer will receive a $10,(XX) contribution for his or her organization. Four other fiiudists will get $5,000 contributions. The national youth winner will receive a $5,000 conu-ibution and a $5,000 scholarship.

The two local winners will receive the engraved Gol­den Rule Award, a bronze sculpture by Greg Wyatt.

At the meeting Friday, VandenBush urged the social service organization representatives to “keep the judges busy” by submitting nominations.

He said J.C. Penney sponsored the program in 110 communities last year and expects to sponsor it in about 150 communities this year.

Weiss praised J.C. ^nney for conducting the program. He said that as large corporate businesses have replaced locally operated ones, the sense of community service

has almost completely disappeared.Weiss said the one thing he is proudest of in his career

as town manager is that Manchester has supported social services.

He said he hopes one of the winners in the volunteer contest will be the whole conununity because of the at­tention focused on volunteer efforts. And he said that with the federal and state governments abandoning a number of social service projects, volunteer efforts will become more important.

VandenBush said community service has been part of the company’s tradition since James Cash Penney opened the first store in 1906 and told his associates and store managers to be guided by the Golden Rule in business and in service to their coiimiunities.

OPINIONDemandsoutstripresources

The difficulties Boards of Education face when setting school budgets in the current tight financial situation were rather poignantly illustrated last week when tiic Coventry Board of Education cut about $336,000 from the $10.5 million recommen­dation of its superintendent

One board member was emotionally affected by the suggestion that cuts be made in the program for gifted children. His concern was that a relative with academic ability had dropped out of school, apparently from lack of challenge.

The board member who suggested the cut was with a different experience. Her relatives needed special education services, and she favored im­proving those services.

A third member of the board objected to a plan by the superintendent to eliminate paraprofes- sionals at elementary schools.

She argued that good things happen for everybody but “Joe Average.”

When expressed in such personal terms, theproblem is easy to understand, but not easy to resolve. Schools have responsibilities to the gifted, to those who need extra help, and to the rest of the student population and all Boards of Education have a hard job striking a balance.

In Manchester, one of the issues being debated is whether to proceed with plans for a special focus program at the Nathan Hale School. The cost has been put at $264,000, hardly a major por­tion of the board’s budget request of more than $45 million.

The program would directly benefit the 50 or 100 students who would be enrolled, but both the whole school population and community would gain as well.

But the claim that the program will lose momentum if it is not instituted this year is not persuasive. Postponing it is an alternative that should not be ruled out as the budget undergoes further study.

S andin istas ju s t m ight loseBy Ben Wattenberg

To the Editor:Mr. Osella’s letter in the “Open Fbrum” column,

which urged Manchester citizens to contact elected state representatives and senators about proposed state aid cuts, made a very valid point. We, as concerned Manchester citizens, should write our state government representatives and voice our displeasure concerning the proposed decrease in aid to Manchester schools.

However, a concluding statement in Mr. Osella’s letter seems to be laying the groundwork for blaming the Board of Education if the aid is not restored — ”... Otherwise, the Board of Education will have to bear the responsibility for a potential 2.6 mill tax rate increase squarely on their shoulders and be held accountable by the citizens who elected them.” Mr. Osella’s position of casting blame is counter-productive. The most important issue is not “Who will be at fault for increased taxes?”, but rather that we should all work together to let the state government know that our state aid must not be eliminated, so that our children will continue to benefit from the fine educational system which we have in Manchester.

tAE, TOO!

If the eleaion is even moderately fair, and it may turn out to be barely so, it is not a bad bet that on Sunday 25 Violeta Chamorro will be elected president of Nicaragua. If it happens, yet one more communist dictator, the Sandinista’s Daniel Ortega, will fall.

That, of course, is not the story we’ve generally been hearing. Most of the jour­nalists reporting about Nicaragua arc perhaps too sophisticated.

You see, Chamorro’s party, the Nation­al Opposition Union (UNO) doesn’t have much money for electioneering. UNO is a 14-party wdl-to-wall left-right coalition — and they bicker in public. They haven’t been successful at organizing voters. They don’t have cars, phones and Xeroxes.

The Sandinistas, on the other hand, are giving out cigarette lighters, tee-shirts, belt buckles, beach balls and briefcases, all with the Sandinista logo. They have organized. Their posters are everywhere.

You know what than means. Money, organization and inside baseball arc what drive elections, right? And not only that, Chamorro broke her knee on Jan. 2, and The Washington Post says, “Many analysts wrote UNO off as a lost cause.”

ft)lls, too. Bizarrely, the Post reports that “almost all polls show Ortega in front.” A Los Angels Times editorial says “only two public opinion polls among many ’’even close” to beating Ortega, and

urges the United States to get ready to support a freely elected communist. (Oxymoron).

They just don’t get it. You’d thirtk that they might after Eastern Europe. These are not elections. They are referenda. The referendum question is “do you want to be ruled by totalitarians?” People everywhere, given half a chance, vote no. W hen th ey ’re scared , as many Nicaraguans are, they tell pollsters “no opinion,” “undecided” or even lie. With all that, Chamorro has been ahead in many of the better polls.

The communists turned Nicaragua into a repressive slum. The living standard has fallen by 90 percent. About 20 percent of the population has fled. Inflation is too high to measure.

Given such circumstances, says Costa Rican President Oscar Arias, “It is incon­ceivable that the Sandinistas could win a fair election.” Arias says Costa Ricans wouldn’t tolerate the election abuse going on in Nicaragua.

UNO gets 30 minutes a week on television. The Sandinistas keep the rest and use putative news programs to market their wares. They use government resour­ces to finance their campaign. They have threatened, harassed, jailed, beaten up and even killed UNO supporters. They have claimed that Chamorro supported Somoza’s National Guard; it was her matyred husband that led the anti-Somoza opposition.

The press, which in the United States goes ballistic if a candidate boosted an

expense account, which faints at Willie Horton commercials, has quietly bought it to the subversive idea that what ought to be judged in Nicaragua is whether it will be an “acceptable” election. Hey, press, do your job. Hey piranha fish, where are you when you need piranha fish?

My guess from far away is that the Sandinistas are probably going to lose. They became drunk with power. Fer­dinand Marcos thought the opposition could never unite on a single candidate. Hello, President Aquino. The Sandinistas made the same mistake.

They’ll probably lose because even with Sandinista skullduggery, there are a thousand international observers in place, many of straight shooters. There are hundreds of international press, and, sooner or later (it will be later), the press will do their thing about dictators and corruption and saintly ladies drawing big and passionate crowds who want freedom now. Headline: Vi’s Got Big Mo. Hey, press: the whole world is watching.

The Sandinistas cut a deal to get their Central American neighbors to dump the contras in return for free elections. It’s hard these days to shut down an election while the spotlight is on. If Chamorro wins, the Sandinistas may even have to let her govern. The process is forcing the Sandinistas, in a grudging and ugly way, to compete. It’s becoming Poland, not Cuba.

WCTU says liquor worst drugBy Tom Tiede

Publisher ___Opinion Page Editor Associate E d ito r___

Penny M Sieffert__^Ron Robillatd

Alexander Girelli

EVANSTON, ni. — Rachel Kelly was somewhat disappointed a few months ago when George Bush told the nation of the government’s plan to battle narcotics abuse. She says he talked about things like marijuana and crack cocaine, but he didn’t so much as mention the most debilitating drug of them all: “demon al­cohol.”

Kelly says Americans consume an as­tounding total of 6.7 billion gallons of in­toxicating beverages each year. And while it is perfectly legal and perfectly condoned, it is nevertheless very dangerous. She says 18 million p>cople have serious drinking problems, and more than half of them are fully alcoholic.

She sighs at the recounting.“Beer, wine and whiskey,” she says.

“They are killing us.”Kelly is the president of the Women’s

Christian Temperance Union. It is the do-good abstinence organization that originated the idea of ju t saying no to

narcotics. It has been the butt of endless barroom jokes for the suggestion. Yet it docs not waver from the notitMi that booze is the nation’s No. 1 drug problem.

Let’s go to the statistics again: Kelly says the United States has a monumental­ly grave and altogether enduring hang­over. She says liquor is a factor in perhaps half of the violent crimes com­mitted in the land, and, taken in sum, it costs the nation about $116 billion a year in this and other social consequences.

She also says it’s nothing new. The country has had a drinking dilemma since the Puritans staggered to Sunday church services after spending Saturday nights in their cups. The women’s temperance union was formed in 1874 in an attempt to break the bottles. It has since had some memorable successes — and failures.

No doubt the most memorable success was Prohibition. The term, coupled with the event, changed the course of 20th cen­tury life. The temperance union prayedfor it at first, and then turned to a lobby­ing effort as well. The 18th Amendment proscribed, beginning in 1920, the manufacture and sale of spirits.

As it happened the measure proved to be temporary. The 18th Amendment was repealed in 1933, and most Americans

“One can live for days on nothing but food and water,”

— W.C. Fields

were just as happy. Prohibition forced people to rely on the black market to get liquor, and that, in turn, gave rise to the organi/.ed criminal apparatus that would become a permanent fixture in the republic.

Yet Kelly says Prohibition had its good face loo. And she concludes that it was in the overall a moral triumph. The con­sumption of liquor was cut by two-thirds, the money saved by the law revitalized the general economy, and, on a more specific note, there was a 60 percent drop in cases of cirrhosis of the liver.

So the Women’s Christian Temperance Union says it has nothing to regret in the matter. And it is the only mainline prohibition group still carrying the torch. Kelly says the government, the churches and the schools have given up the cam­paign for abstinence, but the WCTU remains on the side of the angels.

The group works out of a cluster of Victorian buildings in this lakeside sub­urb of Chicago. And it is presently con­cerned with the conuol of all drugs, not just the liquid kind. Kelly says the or­ganization has 50,0(X) U.S. members, and another 150,000 worldwide, and they provide an $800,000 operating budget.

Each of the members takes a pledge to “abstain from all distilled, fermented and malt liquors,” including hard cider. They hold that one is not injured by what one does not drink. They are likewise asked to pray every day against intoxicating beverages, and to promote sobriety and related virtues in their localities.

The members no longer promote sobriety that is mandated by law. RatJier, they conduct a worthwhile education program regarding self-control and responsibility. Kelly says the WCTU ismaking a particular effort to educate children, because it maintains that today’s kids may represent tomorrow’s solutions.

Not that the solutions are guaranteed. The WCTU knows that today’s kids have an enormous generational narcotics problem. They use substantially more

sU'eet drugs than adults, and they are also drowning in booze; federal statistics indi­cate that almost 5 million teenagers are in regular contact with alcohol.

Still and all, the temperance union is used to dealing with hard cases. Kelly notes that it has witnessed temperance failure for 115 years. The beer can be­come a national icon, almost 160 million cases of booze are sold annually, and pcr-capita consumption is currently thrice what it was at the end of Prohibition.

The union has even suiigglcd against the currents here in its hometown. Staid and stately Evanston opened the door to restaurant libations in 1972.

WASHINGTON — One of the most rabid f^estinian terrorists of the last 20 years, George Habash, is currently restraining himself in deference to a political solution to the question of a Palestinian state. But when we tracked him down to an office in Damascus for an exclusive interview, Habash warned us that his self-imposed truce won’t last forever.

His followers, members of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, are secretly arming themselves on the West Bank. They are wailing for Habash’s order to escalate the Palestinian uprising, the intifada, from rock throwing to grenade tossing.

Our own estimate, and that of U.S. in­telligence sources and sources inside the PFLP, is that Habash will give his fellow Palestinian, Yasir Arafat, six months to win concessions from Israel. Then Habash will renew the violence.

The historical record shows Habash is not prissy about bloodshed. He formed the PFLP in 1967 after the loss of the West Bank to Israel. Then he mounted a series of spectacular terrorist operations: hijacking three airliners and blowing them up in front of TV cameras (1969); a machine gun attack by hired Japanese Red Army suicide terrorists in the Lod Airport in Tel Aviv killing 27 civilians (1972); hijacking a Japanese airliner to Libya and blowing it up (1973); tJirowing hand grenades into a crowded Tel Aviv theater, killing three (1974); hijacking an Air France airliner to Entebbe, Uganda, where four civilians were killed during a successful rescue by Israeli soldiers(1976) ; and hijacking a Lufthansa airline to Somalia only to have West German commandos storm the plane, rescue the passengers and killed three terrorists(1977) .

Since 1984, his group has hijacked or bombed three Israeli buses and stabbed an Israeli student to death on a Jerusalem street.

Age has taken a loll on Habash. His speech, in English, was halting when we met him. One side of his body is paralyzxxl, and he needs help to walk. He blames a surgeon who botched his brain surgery in Beirut in 1980.

Highly classified Central Intelligence Agency reports reveal that Habash has been near death several times from a heart attack and unidentified illnesses.

The CIA keeps close labs on Habash’s health. He is easily the most important Palestinian leader after Arafat, and he could change the course of the low-key inilfada by a simple order to escalate the violence.

Habash has not held back lately be­cause of discretion alone. He was stung by the two defeats — the Israeli paratroopers at Entebbe and the West German commandos in Somalia. He now concentrates on operations inside Israel or from neighboring countries, instead of global terrorism.

It suits Habash’s purposes now to pose as a support of Arafat. “We are part of the PLO,” he told us. “That is why our goal is the goal of the PLO — self-determination for Palestinians, independence, having the right to establish our own state like any other people.”

Habash told us he is still a commited Marxist. “1 hope it will be a socialist country,” he says of lire Palestinian stale. “ I hope to sec a Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital. And I hope to see a dcmocrtic parliament, a Palc.stinian par­liament, holding its session in Jerusalem before I die.”

Budget gridlockThe next lime you find yourself sitting

in a traffic jam, here’s something to oc­cupy your mind. Transportation Depart­ment analysis say that within the next 15 years, delays on the freeway will increase 436 percent nationwide. One solution is to expand existing roadways, but that’s too expensive. The suics and the federal government are running up deficits. The nation’s infrastructure needs more llian $300 billion in repairs — approximately the cost of the savings and loan bailout. You can bet that the savings and loans will be rescued, but the motorists will not.

Mini editorial With the diminished threat from the

“Evil Empire,” the Pentagon brass now can conccnuatc its strategic skills on budget battles. Given the course of events, they expect to lose a few admirals will maintain the privileges of rank no matter how much military hardware they lose. And they will also retain ilie right to pay the highest price for whatever they buy. Everyone agrees that military cuts mu.st come. Why not do something revolutionary and cut fat instead of muscle?

IS IT ART? — This 8V2-foot statue of Rocky in front of the the Phiiadelphia Art Museum is being criticized by the local art community, which wants it removed. Sylvester Stallone, the actor who created the character, and Philadelphia's mayor are among those who think the statue should remain at the site.

Record malpractice award scaring obstetricians awayBy Kelly Womer The Associated Press

CHARLESTON, W.Va. — A record medical malpractice award is causing some West V irginia obstetricians to turn away new patients and consider leaving the state, where their ranks already have been halved in five years.

“Some will probably leave if they gel a chance. I would leave,” Dr. Ujjal Sandhu said Thursday. “I don’t want to worry about losing my shirt. The patients will have to go out of state just like the doctors are leaving.”

A county jury in Charleston last week awarded a couple $15.25 mil­lion after they claimed their obstetrician failed to perform a Caesarean section to prevent brain damage to their newborn. It was the state’s highest malpractice award against an obstetrician.

Mark and Julie Robinson of Cabin Creek, about 15 miles east of Charleston, said Dr. Kanoj K. Bis­was, a Charleston obstetrician, should have p erfo rm ed the Caesarean section on July 31, 1987, after their son, who weighed more than 10 pounds, became stuck in the birth caiial.

Instead, the couple said Biswas used forceps to remove the baby, causing fetal asphyxia and a brain hemorrhage. The doctor’s lawyer had argued that the child had an ab­normal heart and his treatment during birth was not the cause of his medical problems.

“We’re working scared,” Sandhu

said. “Malpractice awards are skyrocketing. There should be some reasonable compensation to victims, but they shouldn’t be made mil­lionaires overnight.”

Sandhu and at least seven other C harleston obstetricians have decided not to take new patients, he said. Some are leaving to practice in neighboring stales with lower in­surance costs and limits on medical malpractice awards.

TTie decline in obstetricians has worsened in the state in recent years, said Dr. Bruce Berry, chairman of West Virginia’s section of the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology.

Berry said the stale now has 65 registered obstetricians, down from 135 five years ago. Twenty-one family praciioners also deliver babies, but the state hasn’t been able to recruit new physicians. Berry said.

There were 23,045 babies bom in West Virginia last year, according to state figures.

West Virginia has been troubled by problems keeping physicians of all kinds. Last year, the state had 152 doctors per 100,000 residents, 37th among the states, according to the American Medical Association. Some counties have no doctors at all.

Berry said he quit practicing obstetrics 14 months ago in Charles­ton mainly because of the high cost of malpractice insurance.

West Virginia Medical Associa­tion officials are trying to delemiine how other obstetricians arc reacting to the malpractice award, said Ex-

Everyday citizens risked lives when they went to aid of others

PITTSBURGH (AP) — Dale Layton wasted no time when he spotted a train bearing down on a man in a wheelchair stuck on rail­road tracks.

“I knew if I was going to get there I was going to have to gel with it,” said Layton, one of 19 Americans and Canadians recognized Thursday by the Carnegie Hero Fund Com­mission for risking their lives to save others.

Layton, a retired funeral director from Canby, Ore., heard the train’s whistle blaring non-stop, and saw the train bearing down toward Lawrence Supnet, 28, of Portland, stuck in the tracks at a crossing on Nov. 17, 1988.

“I turned and ran just as fast as I could run,” Layton said in a telephone interview.

“1 just gave the chair one yank and lilted it back. I bet it wasn’t five heartbeats from the time I grabbed it and the lime the train was there.”

Layton and the winners received a medal and $2,5(X). The commission has honored 7,424 people since its founding in 1904 by industrialist Andrew Carnegie.

Five of those honored Thursday died in their rescue attempts.

One recipient, James Slack III — who had recently left prison after serving two years on a rape convic­tion — was honored for coming to the rescue of a slabbing victim

during an attack March 14, 1989, on a bus in Bloomington, III.

The others recognized were:•Garry W. Proffit, 34, of Hol­

lywood, Md., drowned trying to pull a man from a water storage tank in Lusby, Md., on Sept. 15, 1988.

•Michael G. Martinez, 40, of Hialeah, Fla., died of a heart attack after saving an unidentified woman from drowning in the Atlantic Ocean at Miami Beach, Fla., May 29, 1989.

•John K. Aiena, 44, of Beaumont, Texas, died trying to save a man from drowning in a Port Arthur, Texas, marina May 26, 1989.

•Betty B. Lamb, 69, of Sacramen­to, Calif., died trying to save her 3- year-old grandson from drowning in the I^ if ic Ocean July 12, 1989, in Jenner, Calif. The child also died.

•Keith A. Jensen, 33, of New Denmark, New Brunswick, died trying to save his parents from their burning home Jan. 31, 1988, in New Brunswick.

•James K. Webb of Fishkill, N.Y., and Richard Guslin of Lagran- geville, N.Y., both 25, helped rescue three men from a burning car in Buchanan, N.Y., on April 11, 1989.

•Anthony J. Vaca, 23, of Antioch, Calif., pulled three men from two vehicles that caught fire after collid­ing in Antioch on March 23, 1989.

California’s primary bill threatened by squabbling

SACRAMENTO. Calif. (AI^ — The state Senate passed a bill giving California one of the earliest presidential primaries in the nation, but political leaders said the real fight over the bill was still to come.■ The bill approved in the Senate

on Thursday would jolt the nation’s candidate-selection process.

It had been bottled up in the Senate since September and was ap­proved only ^ te r its supporters promised to send it to a Democrat- dominated two-house conference committee for more negotiations.

But Democrat and Republican leaders expressed doubt that the committee could draft a bipartisan compromise the bill appears to need to b ^ m e law.

“It’s not looking very good right now," said Senate Republican leader Ken Maddy.

In June, the Assembly approved a

version of the bill that would schedule California’s pirimary elec­tion on the first Thesday in March during presidential election years, with the change beginning in 1992.

That would place the primary of the nation’s most populous state, now one of the last to be held, on the heels of the Iowa caucuses and the New Hampshire primary. Ac­cording to the latest state Finance Department figures, California has about 29.1 million people.

California has not played a key role in a presidential primary since 1972, when George McGovern’s victory propelled him to the Democratic nomination. Supporters of the bill say a June primary usual­ly gives California voters little voice in selecting presidential nominees.

In non-presidential years, the primary would remain on its current date, the TUesday after the first

Monday in June.The vote Thursday in the

Democrat-controlled Senate was 24-11. Six Republicans joined 17 Democrats and an independent in su p p o rtin g the b il l . Seven Republicans and four Democrats voted no.

The bill has hit a series of snags since it was introduced. Senate Republicans fear the reapportion­ment of their legislative districts fol­lowing the 1990 census may not be completed by March 1992. They do not want to run for re-election in 1992 in the current districts, which were drawn up by Democrats.

One solution would be to hold two primaries, one in March for presidential candidates and another later in the year, probably June or September, for state and congres­sional candidates.

Serious differences surface during Japan-U.S. trade talks

ecutive Director George Rider.Dr. Paul Fulcher of Charleston,

who also stopped taking new preg­nant patients because of the recent case, said such malpractice awards leave him “virtually uninsured.”

Fulcher said most obsleuicians carry a minimum $1 million malpractice insurance. The maxi- m’om coverage is $10 million. Berry said.

West Virginia physicians pay about $63,(X)0 in liability insurance annually, sometimes twice as much as doctors in Virginia and Kentucky, Rider said. He said he is uncertain why malpractice insurance costs more in West Virginia.

High insurance costs are making it harder for pregnant women to find a physician, Fulcher said.

“The main thing is we want to en­sure the availability of health care and provide our expertise without our personal and family assets being on the line,” Fulcher said.

Berry said the average delivery costs $1,200 to $1,500. Patients would have to pay $500 more to cover liability insurance if an obsteuician took out a $10 million policy, he said.

The medical association has been unsuccessful in attempts to cap malpractice awards: other stales’ caps have been declared unconstitu­tional, officials said.

Instead, Fulcher said, some obstetricians have proposed a reserve fund to cover large malprac­tice awards. But he said another $15 million award would wipe out the fund.

TOKYO (AP) — Foreign Mini­ster Taro Nakayama today called for urgent Cabinet-level trade talks, saying U.S. demands at lower-level discussions on the U.S.-Japanese trade imbalance were stronger than expected.

American officials criticized Japanese negotiators in the talks, saying they would not go far enough in efforts to reduce Japan’s $49 bil­lion trade surplus with the United States.

“We must say we find ourselves frustrated and concerned at this p o in t,” D eputy U .S . T rade Representative Lirui Williams told reporters after the two-day negotiat­ing session ended today.

“We expected this meeting to be a substantial step forward. But what we heard is not enough to be effec­

tive, lasting or credible,” he said. “It was mainly a defense of the status quo with prospects of only minimal further action.”

Nakayama told reporters the U.S. demands were “much severer” than Japanese officials had expected.

He called for an urgent meeting of top goverrunent officials, after Prime Minister Toshiki Kaifu names a new Cabinet next week, to clear up disagreements aired in talks at the bilateral sub-Cabinet level.

The Japanese side today was given a ch^ce to critique U.S. plans for structural trade reform.

This round of trade talks — known as the Structural Impedi­ments Initiative — was delayed from early January until after na­tional parliamentary elections Sun­day that kept the conservative

Liberal Democratic ftrty in power.Since the structural trade talks

were launched in May, U.S. officials have pressed Japan for evidence of willingness to carry out wide-rang­ing reform to help reduce Japan’s trade surplus with the United States.

Today, it was the United States’ turn to explain what it is doing to change American practices that con­tribute to the imbalance. U.S. offi­cials said they would outline Washington’s plans to increase the low U.S. savings and investment rates and to bolster the competitive­ness of American firms.

The U.S. timetable for these chan­ges was unclear.

Japan says U.S. problems con­tributing to the uade imbalance in­clude inadequate savings and invest­ment.

reliable, the rate had fallen to 10.9 deaths per 100 million miles, still far higher than recent years.

Joan Claybrook, NHTSA ad­ministrator during the Carter ad­ministration who criticized the agen­cy’s performance in the Reagan years, also hailed the improved fatality rate. But it resulted in part from standards the federal govern­ment adopted grudgingly, she said.

“Even when Reagan was saying get the government off our backs, state legislatures were continuing to pass these safety requirements with these incredibly high payoffs,” said Ms. Claybrook, now president of Public Citizen, a public interest group founded by Ralph Nader.

Thirty-three states and the DisU'ict of Columbia have enacted man­datory seat belt laws since 1984.

The total fell from 34 last fall when North Dakota voters rejected by referendum a bill that had cleared the state legislature.

Seat belt use has increased from 10 to 15 percent in the early 1980s to around 47 percent, said Jeffrey M ille r, deputy NHTSA ad ­ministrator.

A regulation that took effect in September requires all cars made in the United States to have air bags or automatic safety belts.

“That will save thousands of lives every year,” Ms. Claybrook said. “It’s the most important health stan­dard in America.”

Meanwhile, all states now require child restraint seats and have es­tablished 21 as the minimum drink­ing age. Alcohol-related highway deaths have fallen from about

28,000 in 1980 to 23,500 in 1988, a 17 percent decline. The number of teen-agers involved in such crashes fell by one-third between 1982 and 1986, Miller said.

“The numbers are still obviously high but we’re making some notice­able inroads,” he said.

State drunken driving laws were toughened across the nation during the 1980s, while police and prosecutors became more adept at handling impaired driving cases. Miller said. Public tolerance waned, spaw ning d esig n a ted d riv er programs and awareness campaigns.

Curry, appointed by President Bush last year, has promised to quicken his agency’s consideration of new safety regulations. He said Thursday that new side-impact stan­dards, the subject of fierce debate

casting the vote, Irish said, “The in­tention of my vote was to pass on the desires of the members of the Board of Directors preceding my term.”

He said the previous board would have voted to approve the lease.

Cohen asked Irish if he ratified other proptosals initiated by mem­bers of the past board, such as the construction of a firehouse, which Irish rejected twice.

Irish responded he did not think the question was relevant to the question of a possible conflict.

“% u brou^t it up,” Cohen said.Thursday’s vote not to hear the

complaint effectively dismisses the complaint, according to the rules governing the procedures of the

commission.However, Tedford, a former town

director, pointed out the complaint could be amended and brought before the commission again.

Tedford’s suggestion of amending the complaint is significant because the rejected proposal to hear the case included an amendment made by Tedford in response to new al­legations presented by Kudlow at Thursday’s meeting.

Moreover, Tedford said he thinks a hearing is warranted on the grounds of Kudlow’s original ac­cusation that Irish had a conflict be­cause he is a member of the country club combined with the new infor­mation that he owns property ad­jacent to the club.

Tedford questioned Irish on whether he thinks his vote could af­fect the value of the golf course property and in turn his own, which is on Master’s Way. Irish said “no,” explaining that the Town Charter mandates the golf course land be maintained as open space for public recreation.

Today, Irish said, “I certainly felt by Mr. Kudlow’s comments that he was continuing his personal witchhunt against the country club, and I feel like his personal voodoo doll.”

Tedford, attending his first meet­ing as a member, would not com­ment after the meeting as to whether he thinks Irish has a conflia, saying any comment could jeopardize his

governor raising taxes. It is ironic that his budget calls for an increase in funds for corrections, including ja ils , but not in education, Thompson said.

“By allocating our resources there, we are taking them away from programs that will prevent us from having that problem later on,” Thompson said.

Teachers will be laid off if the budget is cut significantly, accord­ing to Democrat Richard W. Dyer, chairman of the school board.

D em ocratic town D irecto r Stephen Cassano said the only way to fully fund the schools is to raise the taxes locally.

Frank Maffe, a Democratic mem­ber of the school board, said that townspeople have greater control over the use of money raised from local taxes than state taxes.

“Let Manchester pay taxes to solve Manchester’s problems,” he said. “Local taxes are going to go up or school services are going to be cut and cut drastically.”

But several Republican members of the school board said the town will be facing the same budget crunch next year unless the root of the problem, increases in teachers’ salaries, is addressed.

“If the salary increases were only

70 percent of what they’re going to be, we would have very few budget problems,” Thomas Sheridan said.

John 'Ricci, another Republican school board member, complained that the fringe benefits that public employees, including teachers, receive are far siqierior to those of employees in the private sector,

“You had no guts to fight the unions,” he told the legislators. “You gave away the store.”

. Meotti said that for many years the teaching profession was relegated to “permanent second- class status in the state of Connec­ticut.

“I think the people of Connecticut wanted that reversed,” he said.

'The Republicans responded that they were not against increasing salaries but that the increases had gone too far.

“The teachers were underpaid. They are no longer underpaid,” Republican school board member Gloria DellaFera said.

McCavanagh said the lack of funding by the federal government, a trend during the 1980s, was having an effect at the local level.

Another meeting, which will in­clude Republican members of the legislative delegation, has been set up for March 6 with the Board of Directors.

for more than a decade, will be es­tablished this year.

“There’s a lot of emotion in­volved ... a lot of money involved for the manufacturers,” he said. “It’s going to be expensive.”

'The new standards will envision a 10 to 15 percent reduction in side- impact deaths, which total one-third of all fatalities in passenger cars, said Barry Felrice, associate NHTSA adminisU'ator for rulemak­ing.

But Curry voiced concern about overburdening automakers, with tough clean air and gas mileage re­quirements pending in Congress.

“The automobile industry is fragile and we have dumped an awful lot of safety regulations on them in the last 12 months,” he said.

credibility in any forthcoming votes on the matter.

As to whether he would'file a new complaint against Irish, Kudlow said, “I don’t know. I haven’t made a final decision. I think my point was well taken, and Mr. Irish is aware of it. And I bear him no ill will.”

In a separate move concerning Irish, the commission decided to delay acting on his request for an examination of his vote, as a direc­tor, to approve the appointment of the town auditor.

He made the request after Democratic Director Stephen T. Caisano alleged Irish had a conflict because members of the auditing firm buy insurance through Irish’s agency.

only if O’Neill were to drop his bid for a third full term. But top Democrats had indicated in recent weeks that Keimelly would not like­ly become a candidate no matter what O’Neill did because time was running out to set up a credible cam­paign.

She said Thursday that “the time has passed for me and I’m no longer looking at a candidacy.”

Kennelly first made the disclosure Thursday morning in an interview on a WPOP radio talk show. She was later deluged with calls from reporters.

K e n n e lly sa id th a t , “ in Washington, once they think you’re looking at something else, you’re not a real player any longer. The speculation down there has been as bad as up here.”

She said she would “fully support (O’Neill) throughout the campaign and I not only hope that he runs but that he wins.” O’Neill has not yet formally announced his candidacy for re-election, although he has acampaign committee, is raising money and is nmning television and radio ads.

O’Neill has said the only thing that would keep him from running would be an unforeseen health problem. But since he hasn’t formal­ly announced, speculation has con­tinued that, especially in light of his low poll ratings and the state’s huge budget problems, he will ultimately decide not to run.

That speculation also included the belief that if O’Neill did drop out.

party regulars would turn to Kennel- ly as their best shot at retaining the governor’s office, not Morrison.

Kennelly said she wouldn’t be a candidate even if those party leaders ended up begging her to run. “I’m just not a candidate,” she said.

State Democratic Chairman John F. Droney Jr. said Kcnnelly’s state­ment was really nothing new. “It’s always been my understanding privately and publicly that she was not running and that she was sup­porting Bill O’Neill.”

The governor agreed, saying “it’s basically where she has been from the very beginning.”

He scoffed at a claim by Morrison that Kennedy’s statement would help Morrison.

Morrison had called it “a very positive development” that is “very helpful to me because it shows people for sure what the choices are going to be.”

Rapoport said he had no plans to drop his quest for Kennedy’s seat, despite her statement.

“I do feel that there are still chan­ges in the political environment that will be taking place in the weeks ahead that will require everyone to look carefully at the decisions that all of us n e ^ to make,” Rapoport said.

“I’m going to continue m y ' preparations and await a final decision from Congresswoman Ken­nedy,” he said. But, he added, “if she’s running for the 1st Congres­sional District, then I’m not.”

Cheney says America to trim Pacific force by 12,000 troopsBy Susanne M. Schafer The Associated Press

TOKYO — Defense Secretary Dick Cheney confirmed for the first time today that the Pentagon wants to cut in its forces in Asia by withdrawing about 12,000 military personnel over the next three years.

Cheney wrapped up his two-week visit in die Pacific Rim with a major policy address before the National Press Club, stressing the proposed reductions are “moderate” and should not be seen as a “first step towards withdrawal” from the Pacific.

Cheney is scheduled to return Saturday to the United States.

“The United States intends to remain involved in Asia,” said Cheney, attempting to reassure governments in the region that have relied on U.S. forces to maintain peace and stability.

The defense chief spoke with the governments in Japan, South Korea and the Philippines about proposals for troop reductions and sought in­creased support for the 120,000 American forces based in Asia, spurred by a Congress that is eager to trim defense spending. The new message has been stark — there will be fewer troops and less money to pay for them.

Amid the lessening of superpower tensions in Europe, Cheney has been pressed by Congress to slash his defense budget and reassess the

reasons for keeping U.S. troops in the region.

In a question-and-answer session, (Theney declined to cite a specific figure for the proposed withdrawal, but said he’d b ^ n discussing “a range” of cuts with the host govern­ments.

Cheney spoke about such cuts during his trip, but he never spoke openly of any figure.

“It is on the order of 10 percent, scattered about the region,” Cheney explained. “The first phase (for the withdrawal) is approximately three years.”

The secretary said there will be more talks with military com­manders and Congress before final decisions arc made. But he said he believed Congress would resist pres­sure from some lawmakers for 20 percent to 30 percent cuts and main­tain “a major U.S. presence in the Pacific.”

Increased support for U.S. troops has been the other key topic of dis­cussions with Asian leaders.

Asked how much more he had re­quested from Japanese officials, Cheney said, “We’d like as much support as we can get.” The secretary said Japan has “sig­nificantly increased” its funding for American forces in Japan recently, adding, “We think that is a very positive uend.”

Cheney met Thursday with Japtanese Prime Minister Toshiki Kaifu, Defense Minister Juro Mat-

sumoto and Foreign Minister Taro Nakayama.

In the daylong meetings, Cheney sought increases in the $2.4 billion annual support toward the $7 billion cost of the American deployment in Japan.

Japanese officials, following daylong discussions 'Thursday with Cheney, called plans for reducing the 50,000 U.S. troops in Japan “prudent and appropriate.”

And Cheney hinted in his speech there might even be more changes in store.

“We are thinking about some force adjustments,” Cheney said in his speech, emphasizing they would be “moderate ... adjusunents” that would not harm the security balance in the region.

“We are not talking about a first step toward withdrawal,” (Theney said. “In the future, if there are solid indications that regional stability will not be threatened, we may — in consultation with our allies — make other adjustments that would be ap­propriate.”

'To emphasize America’s commit­ment to the region, the secretary an­nounced the aircraft carrier USS Midway, now based in Yokosuka, Japan and due to be retired, will be replaced by the carrier USS In­dependence in the summer of 1991.

'The Midway was commissioned in 1945. 'The Independence, com­missioned in 1960, will leave its current home port in San Diego.

Baseball talks take a positive turn at lastBy Ben Walker 7he Associated Press

n ew YORK — Finally, a bright day for baseball.“I’m comfortable with where we are,” Commissioner

Fay Vincent said after 'Thursday’s labor talks took a posi­tive turn. “I’d be more comfortable if we had an agree­ment.”

There’s still no settlement on Day 9 of the spring­training lockout and exhibition games are scheduled to start TTiursday.

But, less than 24 hours after owners and players were ready to break off talks, they were back at the bargaining table and making progress.

Tlie sides were set to meet again today after the union postponed a planned cross-country trip to brief players. And, for the first time, there was speculation the sides could soon reach an agreement.

“I think the (owners) made a very significant decision to solve this in the near term,” Vincent said.

MBush isnH following up on his word

Most outdoor writers do not let politics enter into their column. And I’m no exception. Except every now and then some issues comes up, and we have to let off steam to inform the readers just where the fancy footwork in Washington, D.C. is taking us. Remember James Watt and his shenanigans?

Well, now it seems that President Bush, who ran on a ticket promising all kinds of environmental protection; who let it be known that he was going to be known as the environmental president; has turned into a big puff of smoke.

Let’s get into it. One of the big causes of controversy is the Mitigation Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between the EPA and the Corps of Engineers. This clarifies how wetlands destruction permits are reviewed under section 404 of the Clean Water Act. 'There has been unqualified support for this by environmentalists all around the U.S.

William K. Reilly, who is the administrator of the En­vironmental Protection Agency, a very capable gentleman, also has great support from most of the en­vironmental organizations.

President Bush had been backing Reilly and the EPA in their policy that the development of wetlands should be avoided as much as possible. Any part of wetlands that is developed must be replaced by newly created land of the same features. 'This agreement of policy was set­tled by the EPA and the Army Corps of Engineers in November.

Now comes the clinker in the machinery. On Jan. 11, as a concession to the oil industry, and the Alaskan delegation, a deferral was announced. This was apparent­ly engineered by White House Chief of Staff John Sununu. The “hold” situation was a 15 day deal.

However, on Feb. 7, a new, or revised, jxjlicy was in­stituted that will allow some destruction of wetlands. Per­manent destruction. 'The deal which was backed by Sununu allows for more development in the tundra (wet­lands) of Alaska by oil and gas interests.

In this particular instance it seems the oil and gas in- dusuies are making national wetlands policies. Not the government and its agencies.

'The other aspect of this chief of stafTs feelings that seem to dcfTer from President Bush’s former statement, and Reilly’s, are Sununu’s views on global warming.

Sununu has made it known in print and other ways, that the indusnial complex of this counny, and other high tech manufacturing nations, should not have to pay the cost of stopping the air pollution causing greenhouse damage to our atmosphere. Seems to me, to be one man in a position of power, differing with a whole mess of scientific experts with know-how on the atmosphere, and the damage being done to it. Makes me think of a kid playing sandlot ball telling Ted Williams how to hit.

'Ihere was much hoopla about a major policy speech concerning this subject that was to come forth from the president. 'The environmental president. Instead, what came forth was a lot of nothing. A need for more study. No suong sutement as to how he would lead us into policy that would resuict the use of the elements causing the holes in our celestial greenhouse. Major questions and statements about this were shunted aside.

One of the things that hits me about this whole mess, is that the man who is supposed to be doing his job, and has the qualifications to do so, namely Reilly, is being undercut by a man outside his field.

Our president who describes himself as a leader and an environmentalisL should be just that. He shouldn’t allow someone else to change policy for him.

1710 sudden shift caught most everyone by surprise.“Tm as confused about the way things have been

changing as I’m sure you are,” union chief Donald Fehr said. “They’ve come a substantial way; there’s a long way to go.”

“I didn’t think that yesterday was the end of the world,” management negotiator Chuck O ’Connor said, “but I’m glad the atmosphere is perceived to be better.”

It got that way because the owners dramatically altered their proposals after Wednesday’s plan — a product of management h^d-liners trying to assert themselves — drew an angry response from the players.

'The new proposal calls for the status quo with four changes:

— Minimum salary, currently $68,(XX), would increase to $85,(X)0 in 1990, $90,000 in 1991, $95,000 in 1992 and $100,000 in 1993.

— Contributions to the benefit plan, currently $39 mil­lion, would rise to $42.6 million the first year, $43.9 mil­lion the second year, $45.4 million the third year and $47.3 million the fourth year.

— Players could become free agents twice within five years if their teams do not ofTer salary arbiu-ation by November.

— Draft-pick compensation for free agents would be eliminated if they aren’t offered arbitration by their former clubs.

The new proposal, however, did not directly address the players’ primary demand: lowering from three years to two the eligibility period for salary arbitration.

“I, for one, am not doing cartwheels over this proposal,” said Baltimore pitcher Jeff Ballard, a two-year veteran. “It doesn’t address the problems of zero-to-three players.”

Fehr, though, was cautiously optimistic.“It’s a step in the right direction,” Fehr said. “What we

have to do tonight is weigh the circumstances and see if we can come back with a response tomorrow.”

'The sides have met 27 times, but never on a Saturday or Sunday. Vincent, however, said he is prepared for ses­sions throughout the weekend.

Fehr said the talks will break by Monday night, when he is scheduled to leave for a union executive board meeting in Phoenix the following day.

Even if there is a quick fix, there is little chance the exhibition season could start on time. Four games are scheduled 'Thursday, including the Oakland-San Francis­co World Scries rematch to benefit earthquake victims.

“I don’t know the answer to that. You need players and pitchers,” Vincent said. “Will there be players? I sup­pose. It depends on what they’ve been doing.”

No official announcements have been made that the opening games have been canceled. But plans already arc in place in Florida and Arizona to refund tickets and make other provision in case the games are not played.

Tom Reich, an agent who represents several dozen players, said he thought a settlement was near.

“I’m far more optimistic than what’s appeared in the public eye over the last 48 hours,” Reich said. “I have been advising my players to be prepared to fly to camps.”

Carter doing his job as role player for BruinsCHICAGO (AP) - John Carter’s name

is not exactly a household word in Bos­ton, but Bruins coach Mike Milbury says he’d “hate to think where we’d be without role players” like him.

'The team trailed 2-1 'Thursday until Carter tied the game with his first of two goals as Boston blasted the CTiicago Blackha’X'ks, 6-3.

“He’s a streaky player, but you can’t count him out just because he doesn’t score much,” said Bruins’ goalie Rejean Lemelin.

With 12 goals in 59 games covering four previous seasons. Carter has had to

snuggle to get ice time, Milbury said.“BuL I’d hate to think where we’d be

without role players like Carter,” he said.Carter played in his 60th game of the

season TTiursday, a feat he said “is getting to be fun.”

Carter fondly recalled his third period breakaway.

“Dave I>3ulin picked up the puck and I broke wide,” he said. “I was watching him and just took off.”

Defense man Wayne Van Dorp stepped up. Baulin sent the puck over a couple of sticks, and he was able to score.

Bob Carpenter, whose second period

goal gave the Bruins a 4-2 edge, said even when his team was down, it wasn’t out.

“Because everyone works so hard, we knew we could come back,” he said.

With the best NHL road record (18-11-3), the Bruins have been able to use two goalies, Lemelin and Andy Moog.

With 17 games left in the season, the Bruins need only worry about themselves, said Cam Neely, who scored his 42nd career-high tying tally. It was Neely’s 18-footer from the top of the left faceoff circle that broke the 2-2 deadlock.

“Now other teams have to worry about

us, and we’re where we want to be right now,” he said.

'The Blackhawks’ Greg Gilbert said his team needs to put a lot more effort into winning if they want to whip the Bruins. Gilbert’s deflection off a Keith Brown slapshot from the point had given the Blackhawks a 2-1 second period edge.

“If we’re going to take those last couple of steps to get to the top, we’re going to have to start beating teams like the Bruins,” Gilbert said. ‘Teams like Buffalo, and Calgary earlier, should not be able to walk into our building and bowl over us.”

Whalers have Aud rematch

BUFFALO — The Hartford Wlialcrs will be looking to duplicate their win of last Sunday over the Buffalo Sabres, but not in the same manner as the two Adams Division rivals .square off tonight at 7:30 (SportsChanncl, WTIC) at the Aud.

Hartford (28-26-7) beat the Sabres (34-23-6) last Sun­day, 6-4, in a game in which the two teams accumulated 207 penalty minutes.

"It might be the same. It might be nothing. TTiere’s no way to tell until you sum playing,” Whaler captain Ron Francis said of the rematch.

Buffalo will be without team captain Mike Riligno, out 4-6 weeks with a broken thumb from an altercation with the Whalers’ Scott Young in that brawl-filled clash.

Hartford returns home immediately after tonight’s game for a Saturday night date at the Civic Center with the Winnipeg Jets.

Ewing passes on the praise A ...# '

By Dick Brinster The Associated Press NBA Roundup

While they were heaping praise on I^trick Ewing, the New York Knicks' center was looking for someone else to take the bows.

“Charles had 19 rebounds. Whew!" Ewing said after glancing at a statistical rendering of the job turned in by Charles Oakley in New York’s 119-110 victory Thursday night over the Washington Bullets.

‘Tm just trying to help this team win,” Ewing said of his second straight 41-point performance. “I was just banging those guys down, post them up deep in the lane. It was effective at times.”

New York coach Stu Jackson wouldn’t permit Ewing to shift much of the credit.

“I’ll tell you, we didn’t go to him that much,” Jackson said. “He created his own points. We did not go to him early, but did go to him late.

“That’s when he got big on the backboards. ... I thought he was dominating.”

Ewing had 14 rebounds, six on the offensive end, as the Knicks won for the eighth time in nine games against Washington and the eighth in nine overall. The victory ended Washington’s three-game winning streak.

Elsewhere in the NBA, it was Milwaukee 109, Dallas 97; Utah 116, the Los Angeles Clippers 102 and Phoenix 104, Sacramento 98.

In additon to his tcam-scason- high rebounding total, Oakley scored 20 points. The Knicks also got 14 points each from Mark Jack- son and Eddie Lee Wilkins and 13 from Johnny Newman.

Jeff Malone scored 33 points to lead Washington. Bernard King added 20 points for the Bullets and Mark Alarie had 13.

Maurice Cheeks, acquired Wed­nesday from San Antonio for Rod Suickland in a trade of point guards, was busy learning New York’s of­fense as the game went on. Checks had four assists and a rebound in 11 minutes.

“The guys were trying to help me learn the plays on the bench,” Checks said. “You can’t do much. It was nice to come down and have F^lrick (Ewing) to throw the ball to.”

The New York front line proved too tough for the Bullets.

“It really didn’t matter who we put in there,” Washington coach Wes Unsold said. “They’re quicker jumpers and a little bigger than us.”

Ewing, coming off a 41-point ef­fort in New York’s overtime victory Saturday over Cleveland, scored 21 of the lOiicks’ first 41 points.

The Knicks went ahead for good with a 22-6 third-quarter surge.

Ewing had eight points to key the spurt that gave New York the upper hand, capping it with a left-handed dunk for an 88-76 lead with a

minute left in the third quarter.After Washington ran off 10 con­

secutive points to pull to 88-86 early in the final period, the Knicks out- scored the Bullets 11-6 for a 99-92 lead with seven minutes left.

Wilkins scored six points in the surge.

Washington pulled to 104-101 with 3:42 left when Darrell Walker hit a jumper as the 24-second clock ran out, but could get no closer as the Knicks went inside the rest of the way.

Bucks 109, Mavericks S>7: Ricky Pierce scored 33 points and Mil­waukee used a late 20-3 surge to end a five-game winning streak by Dal­las.

Brad Lohaus added 18 points and Greg Anderson and Jay Humphries 16 apiece for the Bucks. Roy Tarpley scored 26 points to tie a season high and Rolando Blackman and Derek Harper added 18 apiece for Dallas, which also had won 12 of its previous 14 games.

The Mavericks trailed 82-78 after three quarters, but Brad Davis’ 3- pointer and a three-point play by Tarpley started a 12-4 surge that gave Dallas a 90-86 lead with 8:06 remaining.

Milwaukee’s decisive spurt in­cluded five points by Pierce, a go- ahead 3-pointer by Lohaus, three driving baskets by Humphries and two layups by Alvin Robertson. That made it 106-93 with 1:05 remaining.

Suns 104, Kings 98: Kevin John­son scored eight of his 22 points in the final 3'/2 minutes as Phoenix ex­tended its winning streak to seven games.

Tom (Chambers hit a 12-footer with 36 seconds remaining to break a tie at 98, and Phoenix closed it out with four free throws in the last 15 seconds.

Sacramento had used a 6-0, 50- second-long run to tie the game at 98 with 50 seconds left. The Kings had trailed since there was 1:10 left in the first half.

Jeff Homacek scored 25 points and Chambers 23 for the Suns. Wayman Tisdale led Sacramento with 26 points and Antoine Can- added 20.

Jazz 116, Clippers 102: Karl Malone scored 35 points and Darrell Griffith 12 of his 14 on 3-pointers, including two in the final 71 seconds, as Utah won its fourth straight game.

John Stockton added 24 points and 20 assists for Utah, which opened a 2>/2-game lead over idle San Antonio in the Midwest Division.

Charles Smith, playing his third straight game at center while Benoit Benjamin continues his battle with the flu, led Los Angeles with a career-high 34 points.

In Brief ^ • Flames, Maple Leafs reverting back to formBy Ken Rappoport The Associated PressGarland dealt to the Clippers

LOS ANGELES (AP) — The Los Angeles Clippers, needing help in the backcourt because of scason-etvding injuries to starters Ron Harper and Gary Grant, acquired guard Winston Garland from the Golden State Warriors Thursday,

In exchange for Garland, a 6-foot-2, 170-pounder from Southwest Missouri State playing in his third NBA season, the Clippers sent the Warriors their second-round selections in the 1990 and 1992 NBA drafts.

The trade is contingent on Garland passing a physical examination. To make room for Garland on their roster, the Clippers placed rookie guard Jay Edwards on the in­jured list. Edwards has patellar tendinitis in his left knee, an ailment which has h ^p ered him most of the season.

Garland, 25, averaged 5.3 points and 3.1 assists in 17 J minutes per game this season. He played in 51 of Golden Slate’s 52 games, four of which he started. ------- —________________

NHL RoundupThe Calgary Flames looked like their old selves. So,

loo, did the Toronto Maple Leafs.The Flames, a high-powered offensive machine before

turning to defense to win the Stanley Cup last season, reminded their opponents they can still put it in the net with a 12-2 pounding of the Maple Leafs Thursday night.

That lied a club record for the Flames, who set the mark when they were based in Atlanta. In that game on March 21, 1975 they buried Vancouver 12-4.

Toronto, meanwhile, looked like the Maple Leafs of the 1980s, who gave up more goals than any other NHL team, went through the decade without one winning season and finished 20th overall in the 21 -team league.

“It was our worst performance of the year,” said Toronto coach Doug Carpenter, who has had the Maple

Leafs in the thick of the Norris Division race this season. “It was totally embarrassing.... It was a disgrace.”

Toronto defenseman Brad Marsh agreed.“We played just awful," Toronto defenseman Brad

Marsh said.Joe Mullen and former Whaler Dana Murzyn scored

three goals apiece to lead the Flames’ attack.Mullen clicked for his seventh career hat trick, his fifth

as a Flame and first of the season as Calgary ended a two-game losing streak.

NEW YORK (AP) — As expected, there were no blockbuster deals Thursday night at the NBA uading dcadlirte, with the biggest move being the trade of for­ward Brad Sellers from Seattle to Minnesota for center- forward Steve Johnson and a second-round draft pick in 1991.

The SuperSonics also announced the signing of guard Quintin Dailey for the remainder of the season.

The New York Knicks, who 24 hours earlier got Maurice Cheeks from San Antonio for Rod Strickland in a trade of point guards, picked up center Stuart Gray from Charlotte in exchange for a second-round pick in the 1991 draft.

But the Hornets traded that choice to Cleveland for forward Randolph Keys, the Cavaliers’ first-round pick in the 1988 draft.

The New York Mets pitcher, who tore a muscle beneath his right armpit last summer and sat out three months, is throwing off the mound every other day while contract negotiations continue between the union and owners.

He’s making the most of the situation — working out at a local high school — but admits it’s frustrating not being able to throw under the watchful eye of pitching coach Mel Stottlemyre.

“Pitching, you know some of the things you need to do, but when you’re going through it you need somebody to stand behind you watching your footwork, watching your release-point and all those things," the 25-year-old right-hander said.

“I may be able to point out some of those things, but nowhere close to what Mel can see. So it makes it a little bit tougher, especially this year coming back from an in- jury."

Gooden, 9-4 with a 2.89 eamed-run average last season, went on the disabled list in July and didn’t return

until September when he made two appearances out of the Mets bullpen.

The relief stints eased doubts he had about his future, and the Mets’ ace was looking forward to spring training more than ever before.

“I got off to a good start, but I only won nine ball games last year. I’m anxious to take the mound again,” he said. “It’s very frustrating. It’s been a long winter. I missed three months, and now we’re going through this process (lockout) here.”

Gooden, whose 1989 statistics included 101 su-ikeouts in 118 innings, said he’s been throwing regularly for more than two months and hasn’t experienced any pain. ‘T ve pul a little exua on the ball here and there,” and threw breaking pitches for the first time on Wednesday, he said.

“Still, it’s different than a game situation. It’s pretty easy to hit your spot when there’s just a catcher there," Gotxien said. “I couldn’t take the mound tomorrow, but at this point and lime I feel the same as I’ve felt at this lime in the past.”

Leafs, who are 0-5-1 in their last six road games.“We just wanted to shut them down,” Gilmour said.

“We did th a t... and then we just happened to score a lot of goals, too.”

Canadiens 6, Nordiques 5: Mike MePhee scored the lie-breaker in the second period with his second goal of the game, leading M onuei over (Juebec.

The Canadiens have won five of six games against Quebec this season, but they were extended in this final meeting. The Nordiques have won only once in their last 17 games, but overcame a two-goal deficit and were locked in a 4-4 lie late in the second period.

MePhee’s 15lh goal of the season ended the lie at 16:50 of the second period. Defenseman Mathieu Schneider’s second goal of the game and sixth of the season made it 6-4 at 7:25 of the third period.

Penguins 4, Islanders 3,OT: Randy Gilhen scored with 34 seconds left in overtime to boost the Penguins over the Islanders and into a first-place tie with the New York Rangers in the Phuick Division.

Gilhen stationed himself in front of the net dnd lipped in Bob Errey’s shot for his first goal in 22 games.

Pittsburgh is 6-1-1 in its last eight games and has 63 points, matching the Rangers’ total. The Islanders, who’ve lost four in a row, are one point back.

JeLs 4, Devils 2: Doug Evans scored a pair of goals as the Jets handed the Devils their fourth straight loss and extended their winicss string to six (0-5-1).

Evans, playing his 12lh game for the Jets, scored twice in the second period as Winnipeg took a 4-0 lead.

Winnipeg rookie goalie Stephane Beauregard, making his eighth start, turned aside 34 New Jersey shots for his fourth win. Devils goallcnder Sean Burke didn’t last the whole game, leaving after Evans’ second goal of the game at 14:29 of ilic second period.

!• lyers 7, Blues 4: Ilkka Sinisalo and Keith Acton each scored two goals as Philadelphia defeated St. Louis to move out of the Ritrick Division cellar.

Gord Murphy added a goal and an assist and Rick Toc- chet scored his team-leading 33rd goal for the Flyers, who climbed past Washington and New Jersey into fourth place with 58 points, three behind the third-place New York Islanders.

last fall after 15 years with the Boston Red Sox, repor­tedly is resigned to sitting out the 1990 baseball season.

There had been reports in recent weeks that Rice, 37 on March 8, had been talking with the Baltimore Orioles, Atlanta Braves and Detroit Tigers.

More Prop. 48’s signedMISSION, Kan. (AP) — College coaches are signing

more players who don’t meet academic standards for first-year eligibility under the NCAA’s Proposition 48, a study suggests.

According to the study, which included responses from 183 of the 293 NCAA EHvision I schools. Proposi­tion 48 students got 6.5 percent of the athletic scholar­ships given for the current school year, up from 5.1 per­cent in 1988-89 and 4.5 percent the previous year.

Proposition 48 describes as a partial qualifier a player who graduated from high school with a grade-point average of at least 2.0, but either did not meet the mini­mum GPA in core curriculum courses or the minimum score on a college entrance exam.

Starting next year, the regulation will be replaced by Proposition 42, which prohibits athletic scholarships to partial qualifiers.

Foster is out indefinitely. NEW YORK (AP) — Hard-luck hurdler Greg Rrster

will be sidelined indefinitely after breaking a bone in his foot during a race in San Sebastian, Spain, the third broken bone he has sustained in the past tlvee years.

Foster, the 1984 Olympic silver medialist and two- iLme outdoor world champion in the 110-meter high hurdles, was injured after winning a race Wednesday. Xhe injury occurred when he stepped in a crack after the race. The Athletics Congress, the national governing tKxly for track and field, reported Thursday.

NBA suspends Hawks’ MarbleATLANTA (AP) — Atlanta Hawks rookie Roy Marble

was suspended by the National Basketball Association for the remainder of the season Thursday for violating the league’s substance abuse policy.

The team announced that Duane Ferrell, a former member of the Hawks, has been signed to a 10-day con­tract as a roster replacement for Marble.

flawless serve-and-volley game to defeat Australia’s Liz Smylie Thursday, 6-0, 6-1, and move into the quarter- fim^s of the Virginia Slims of Washington loumamcnl.

Garrison, the No. 2 seed and fourth-ranked player in the world, lost only 13 points on her serve and won 26 of 33 points at the net in dispatching Smylie in 49 minutes.

served a lengthy golf apprenticeship playing around the world, shot an 8-under-par 63 Thursday to take the first- round lead in the l^ s Angeles Open.

Allen, 31, who took six years to earn his PGA Tour card, held a two-shot edge over Peter Jacobsen and Rocco Mediate after the opening day at Riviera Country Club.

By The Associated Press

The top of Oregon State’s career and single-game scoring lists are now ftiyton’s Place.

Senior guard Gary Riyton scored 58 points Thursday night, breaking game and career records, as the No. 17 Beavers defeated Southern Cal 98-94 in overtime.

“Everybody was struggling and coach (Jim Anderson) decided to give me the ball more,” said Payton, who made 22 of 38 shots. “I was fortunate I was on tonight. I didn’t mean to do all that. It just happened. Right now we’re just trying to win the Rac-10 title.”

Elsewhere, Lionel Simmons scored 27 points to pass the 3,000 mark and move into fourth place on the NCAA career list as No. 14 La Salle won its 16th straight game, l(X)-60 over Manhattan.

Oregon State (20-4, 13-2 Pac-10) trailed by 22 points in the first half but F^yton provid^ the offensive punch as the Beavers stormed back in the second half. He scored Oregon State’s first eight points in overtime and also had six rebounds and four steals.

“In all the years I have been in the game as a spectator and a coach, tonight was probably the most agonizing time for me that I can ever remember because it was a time when I would have much rather been a spectator than a coach, and then I really could have enjoyed what I think was one of the greatest one-man performances in the history of college basketball,” USC coach George Raveling said.

“Be it Walton, Jabbar or whoever you want to name, and particularly when you look at Gary’s size (6-foot-4), it was just phenomenal.”

Payton has 2,080 career points, sur­passing the 2,035 that Steve Johnson scored from 1977 to 1981. ftiyton’s 58 was the second-highest total in 1^-10 history, surpassed only by the 61 scored by UCLA’s Lew Alcindor against Washington State in 1967.

Payton broke the school single-game mark of 48 points by Mel Counts on Dec. 26, 1963, against Portland.

No. 4 UNLV 99, Cal-Irvine 77: Anderson Hunt scored 25 points, Larry Johnson 23 and David Butler 20 to lead

NCAA Roundupthe Runnin’ Rebels to their ninth straight victory. UNLV (23-4, 14-1 Big West) saw a 49-34 halftime lead shrink to ^ -5 2 with 13:33 remaining. But Cal-Irvine got no closer and the Rebels pulled away to lead by 23.

Virginia 73, No. 8 Georgia Tech 71:For the second time this season, unranked Virginia knocked off Georgia Tech, this time on Bryant Stith’s short jumper at the buzzer. Neither team ever led by more than five points and there were 14 ties and 21 lead changes.

Virginia coach Terry Holland said Stith’s shot, which came on an inbounds pass from John Crotty, “was one of the big plays of our season. It was a great win for us.”

The basket negated a Virginia turnover that enabled Georgia Tech (19-5, 7-5 At­lantic Coast Conference) to tie the game 71-71, the points coming on Brian Oliver’s 3-point basket with 41 seconds to play.

No. 14 La Salle 100, M anhattan 60:Simmons ended the game’s only suspense with 12:44 remaining in the first half , hit­ting the front end of a two-shot foul to be­come the fifth Division I player to score 3,000 points.

Simmons, who has a career total of 3,024 points, passed Hersey Hawkins’ 3,008 with his last basket of the first half, a 3-pointer with 1:51 remaining to cap a 9-1 burst and give La Salle (24-1, 14-0 Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference) a 44-28 lead.

“I’ve never been so nervous in my life. My legs were shaking at the start of the game,” Simmons said.

“I told the kids, years from now we’ll be able to say we played with one of the greatest players in the history of the game,” Coach Speedy Morris said.

Next on the list for Simmons is Texas Southern’s Harry Kelly, who scored 3,066 points from 1979-83.

However, it wasn’t Simmons but Doug Overton who led the Explorers with a career-high 30 points.

Notable absentees for Mobil championshipsBy Bert Rosenthal The Associated Press

NEW YORK — What would happen if they held a track meet and no one came?

That won’t quite be the case tonight at Madison Square Garden, site of the Mobil Indoor Championships. But there were a large number of late scratches, reducing some of the potentially outstanding fields to mediocrity. Among the absentees are athletes from two of the strongest club teams, the Santa Monica Track Club, coached by Joe Douglas, and World Class Athletes, coached by Bob Kersee.

Even Jackie Joyner-Kersce, Kersec’s wife, who does not compete for World Class, withdrew from the 55- meter high hurdles.

Neither of the coaches was inunediaicly available for comment.

In addition to Joyner-Kersee, the 1988 Olympic gold medalist in the long jump and heptathlon, other notable withdrawals included Evelyn Ashford, six-lime national champion in the 55-meter dash; Greg Foster, two-time outdoor world champion in the men’s 110-meter hurdles; Mike Conley, world indoor record-holder in the triple

jump and a four-time national champion, and Leroy Bur­rell, national outdoor champion in the men’s 100-meter dash.

Also, Johnny Gray, American outdoor record-holder at 800 meters; Joe Dial, American outdoor record-holder in the pole vault; women’s sprinters Carlette Guidry and Gail Devers-Roberts; high jumper Jimmy Howard; pole vaulier Mike T\illy; 800-meter runners Ocky Clark and John Marshall; triple jumper Charlie Simpkins; sprinter Floyd Heard, and women’s middle-distance runner Le^oui Warren.

Despite the defections, Ollan Cassell, executive direc­tor of The Athletics Congress, national governing body for track and field, termed the sport in good shape.

“I think this has been a positive indoor season,” Cas­sell said earlier this week. “There’s been good competi­tion and some world records have been set.

“1 don’t think any meets on the (Grand Prix) schedule are in trouble of not continuing next year.”

Those not competing in this meet aren’t eligible for triangular meets next month among the United States, Japan and the Soviet Union at Yokohama, Japan, and the U.S., Soviet Union and Britain at Cosford, England.

Such a rash of withdrawals would be more significant if they occur during the National Outdoor Champion­

ships at Cerritos, Calif., in June. In that case, the athletes would be ineligible for the Goodwill Games at Seattle in July, a meet expected to be the best in the United States this year.

In spile of the numerous defections, there still are some intriguing matchups.

The field in the men’s 55-meier high hurdles includes Roger Kingdom, Renaldo Nehemiah, Tonie Campbell, Arhtur Blake, Jack Pierce and Tony Dees.

The women’s 3,(X)0 meters pits Americans Vicki Huber, PhttiSue Plumer and Lynn Jennings against Romanians Viorica Ghican and M^gareta Keszeg.

The men’s mile features Irishmen Eamonn Coghlan and Marcus O’Sullivan, along with American Steve Scott. The men’s high jump matches Romanian Soren Matei against Hollis Conway, and the women’s mile spxHlights Doina Melinte of Romania.

In addition to determining the national champions, the meet will decide the winners of the overall and in­dividual titles of the indoor season.

Going into the championships, distance ruimer Doug I^ illa , who will compete in the 3,000 meters, and LaVonna Martin, winner of her last five high hurdles races, are the men’s and women’s Grand Prix leaders.

Turner jumps into NFL television extravaganzaBy Roneild Blum The Associated Press

NEW YORK — The NFL began its new round of television contracts with a $450 million, four-year deal with 1\imer Broadcasting Systems that means five networks may be showing games next season.

SuperStalion WTBS will show 47 prime-time games — three exhibition games each year, plus regular-season games in the first nine weeks of the 1990, 1992 and 1993 seasons and the first eight weeks of the 1991 season. Most will be

on Sunday nights.“The NFL is among television’s most

elite programming. We are extremely pleased with the addition of the NFL to our sports telecast lineup,” TUmer Sports president Terence F. McGuirk said. “This increased distribution of the NFL games will benefit TBS and fans of the NFL as well.”

The NFL just completed a four-year, $1,428 billion deal with ABC, CBS, NBC and ESPN that brought each team $17 million a season. CBS seems likely to retain Sunday afternoon NPC games and NBC the Sunday afternoon AFC games. The Fox Network is battling ABC for

Monday nights, as is CBS.When all the deals are done, they are

expected to total about $3.5 billion.“The NFL is pleased to join TBS in the

presentation of NFL games over the next four years,” NFL commissioner I^ul Tagliabue said. “1 look forward to an as­sociation with TBS that I expect will bring another first-class offering to mil­lions of fans throughout the nation.”

Television sources said ESPN will keep its package of eight Sunday night games in the second half of the season, which will stretch to 17 weeks in 1991 and pos­sibly 18 after that. ESPN, which also gets the Pro Bowl and two exhibition games,

also is expected to pay about $450 mil­lion over four years. ESPN paid $153 million in a three-year deal that expired earlier this month.

“We are still negotiating with tlie NFL,” ESPN president Roger L. Werner Jr. said.

“An important factor was the additional promotional opportunity afforded by TUmer with its four networks and also Turner’s presence overseas,” Dick Max­well, the NFL’s director of information, said.

The NFL met with officials of CBS on Monday and with NBC on TUesday.

Don King sues for rights to Douglas

NEW YORK — Promoter Don King has thrown a counierpunch in the legal battle for the services of James “Buster” Douglas, the new heavyweight champion.

King hit the conqueror of Mike Tyson with a breach of coturact on Thursday, the {jay after hotel-casino mogul Steve Wynn filed a suit at Las Vegas to have King’s con­tract with Douglas voided.

In the suit field in U.S. District Court in Manhattan, King is seeking millions of dollars in damages and also is asking for an injunction to prevent Douglas from fighting witltout his involvment.

Douglas, who won the title on a shocking lOth-round knockout of Tyson on Feb. 11 at Tokyo, has said he will not fight for King and has signed a conditional contract with Wynn’s Mirage Hotel in Las Vegas for two fights. The first one probably would be against Evander Holyfield in September. Douglas reportedly would be guaranteed $25 million.

King’s suit claims he had an agreement with Douglas “that King would promote future Douglas bouts.” It did not state how many, but King has said he has options for two Douglas fights.

The Mirage and Golden Nugget Inc., the parent com­pany of the $640 million hotel-casino, also were named in the suit as interfering with King’s contract with Douglas.

MANCHESTER HERALD, Friday, Feb. 23.1990—15

Abigail Van Buren

Marriage starts with holiday card

DEAR ABBY: Bak in December of 1988, I par­ticipated in Operation Dear Abby when I sent a Christmas card along with a request for a pen pal to the aircraft carrier USS Nimitz. On Dec. 29, I received a wonderful letter from Machinist Mate First Class John McLeese of Decatur, Mich.

We corresponded for six months, then arranged to meet in June while he was on leave. It was love at First sight! We spent two wonderful days together and con­tinued to keep in touch.

We were married on Jan. 3, 1990, in his hometown of Decatur, in the First Presbyterian Church where his own parents had been married.

I never expected to get a reply to my first letter, be­cause I starukl up front that I was in my 30s, divorced and had two sons — so if it canJiappen to me, it can hap­pen to anyone.

I had to write to share the wonderful news because without “Operation Dear Abby,” wc never would have met. God bless you, Abby.

CHARLENE McLEESE, FRESNO, CALIF.

DEAR CHARLENE: Your letter made my ^ y . May you and John have a lifetime of happiness together.

DEAR ABBY: As I looked at ^ e faces of my crew members as I walk about the ship these days, I see lots of smiles. One reason is imquestionably the 30,000 Christmas cards, letters and packages these young men received through America Remembers/Operation Dear Abby. This year’s campaign was a smashing success.

Please accept the enclosed ship’s plaque as a small token of our appreciation for your continuing support of our Navy men and women worldwide — but especially those of us on the USS Forrcstal. If you’re ever in our area, the red carpet will be rolled out for you! Many thanks on behalf of my entire crew.

TIM THOMASSY, CAPTAIN U.S. NAVY

DEAR CAPTAIN: The USS Forrcstal plaque is on the wall of my office. It’s beautiful, and I th ^ k you.

DEAR ABBY: I am a freedom fighter assigned to the Marine Detachment aboard the USS Enterprise (CVN-65). Being away from home during the holidays is particularly difficult, especially for those servicemen who are married and have small children.

The thousands of letter received as a result of America Remembers/Dcar Abby V have been instrumental in reinforcing our pride in being Americans.

The generosity of your readers in extending their holiday wishes to thousands of service members abroad has filled all of us with an overflowing sense of love for our great country and the people back home.

I have never been prouder. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

BIG WINNERS — David Neufeld celebrates with his daughter, Yevonne Cuellar, center, and his wife, Lydia, at their Simi Valley, Calif., home Wednesday after learning that they won a share of the state’s $67 million Lotto jackpet. They won $16.7 million.

Get more advice before surgery

DEAR DR. GOTT: I was told by a jxxliatrist I need surgery to remove part of the metatarsal head pressing on the bdl of my foot. This advice was given without benefit of X-rays. Is there a possibility that I can wear pads to cushion the foot rather than having surgery? Will I be able to move my toes and foot nomially if 1 have the surgery? I’m confused.

DEAR READER: On occasion, the bones of the foot become painful because of an outgrowth of calcium deposits. Such deposits sometimes press on sensitive structures or act like a stone in the shoe to cause pain. Under these circumstances, doctors attempt to pad the tender area or, in more severe cases, to remove part of the offending bone.

I’m surprised your podiauisl suggested surgery without first trying an orthotic sole insert. Podiatrists arc usually quite skilled at designing and fitting these inserts, which are cheaper than surgery and often relieve symptoms. Ask the podiatrist about this approach. If he or she insists on an operation, I suggest you obtain a second opinion from an orthopedic surgeon.

When properly performed, partial removal of the metatarsal head should not permanently affect foot or toe movement. However, in my opinion, the operation should not be attempted until other options have been ex­hausted.

To give you more information, I am sending you a free copy of my Health Repiort “An Informed Approach To Surgery.” Other readers who would like a copy should send $1.25 with their name and address to P.O. Box 91369, Cleveland 44101-3369. Be sure to mention the title.

DEAR DR. G O IT : Our phamiacist told us that a patch applied to one’s chest would enable us to kick t)ic nicotine habit Is this available on the U.S. market yet? We’ve tried Nicorette gum, hypnosis, acupuncture and Smoke Enders without success.

DEAR READER: Nicotine addiction can be a devilish problem to lick. The primary factor in recovery seems to be a commitment to slop smoking. Once a per­son has decided to give up tobacco, various aids and sup­port groups — such as the ones you mention — are available.

However, it should be used in conjunction with other smoking-cessation techniques, such as a support group. In addition, the patch can only be prescribed by a physician because its blood-prcssurc-lowcring effects must be monitored. Ask your doctor to help you develop a smoke-ending program, or write to the American Can­cer Society at 19 W. 56lh St., New York, N.Y. 10019, for further information.

Soviet beauty queen becomes ‘true Christian’

SYDNEY, Australia (AP) — Soviet beauty queen Anna Gorbunova declared her delight at becoming a “true Christian” after her baptism in a Ukrainian Or­thodox church here.

Ms. (jorbunova, the Moscow secretary who be­came the first Miss USSR last year, said she loved Sydney so much she decided to be baptized Thursday during a promotional trip to Australia.

“I was very nervous in the ceremony; I had goose bumps all over myself,” Ms. Gorbunova said through an interpreter.

In the Soviet Union, especially in the period before President Mikhail Gorbachev consolidated power, “there have been too many restrictions concerning the practice of religion,” said Ms. Gorbunova’s manager, Alexander Djamirze.

Wonder wins lawsuitLOS ANGELES (AP) — Pop star Stevie Wonder

says justice is sweet following a jury’s rejection of a $25 million claim that his Oscar-winner song “1 Just Called to Say I Love You” was stolen from another songwriter.

The plaintiff, Lloyd Chiale, claimed Wonder’s song, part of the movie soundtrack for “Woman in Red,” was taken from a song he co-wrolc titled, “I Just Called To Say.”

“I knew the truth in my heart all along,” said Wonder. “I’m very sorry a lot of people had to spend a lot of precious lime in this courtroom. But I do ap­preciate and respect justice.”

Wonder, 39, offered to uy to smooth over the dis­pute by writing a song with (Thiate and Lee GarrctL, co-author of “I Just Called To Say,” and donate the proceeds to charity.

“Then we all really win,” Wonder said.Chiate wasn’t present when the jury announced its

verdict Thursday. His attorney, Herbert Dodcll, .said his client was wronged by a star-struck jury and a biased judge.

Sisters sing togetherNASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Sisters Loretta Lynn,

Crystal Gayle and Peggy Sue will make their Grand Ole Opry debut as a Uio Saturday night, a spokes­woman said.

The three country music singers, daughters of Ted and Clara Webb, have been singing together at con­certs for the past year but this will be their first lime together on the country music show, spokeswoman Susan Sizemore said.

The performance will be televised on the cable sta­tion The Nashville Network at 8:30 p.m. EST. They will be interviewed on TNN’s “Grand Ole Opry Live Backstage” at 8 p.m. EST.

Harper says she’s blessedNEW YORK (AP) — Actress Valerie Harper says

the suicide of Joan Rivers’ husband shook her out of the doldrums after she was fired from her top-rated NBC sitcom.

“The week I was fired was the same week that Joan Rivers lost her husband. I thought, ‘My God, I’m blessed.’ Think of people with real problems, who live with illness, with drive-by shootings in their neighborhoods,” Harper told USA Weekend magaz.inc in Sunday’s edition.

In her new show, “City,” Harper appears opposite her old show, “The Hogan Family.” She said she had some fears about becoming a Hollywood pariah when she sued producers of “Hogan” following her dismissal.

“There was definitely a buzz around town: ‘Has she gone mad?’ If I’d been a young actress ... 1 might have been destroyed,” Harper said.

News good for businessNEW YORK (AP) — Tycoon Donald Trump, who

usually delights in media attention, says he hates the splashy publicity about his breakup with wife Ivana but believes it has a silver lining: It’s good for busi­ness.

Trump said in an interview Thursday that the screaming tabloid headlines and talk-show jokes about his marital travails actually have benefitted his multibillion-dollar casino, hotel and airline empire.

“The business has never been better,” he said, “but because it’s a private company most people don’t know about it. Unfortunately, for all the wrong reasons, the last two weeks it’s been even better yet.”

Trump said business has been up at his two hotel- casinos in Atlantic City, NJ., the Plaza Hotel and the Trump Shuttle, which links New York with Washington and Boston, since the breakup first hit the headlines two weeks ago.

Still, he said having his name splashed over the media has taken a toll.

“It’s horrible. I hale it. I hate the publicity," Trump said in his glitzy 26th-floor office commanding a view of Central ^ k and the Plaza Hotel, one of his properties.

Under an agreement Ivana is contesting, she would receive $25 million and the couple’s home in Con­necticut as well as custody of their children. Trump’s holdings arc estimated to be worth up to $4 billion.

This year, for the first time, it is possible for anyone in the U.S. to have an accountant cdculate his or her in­come taxes, send the return to the Internal Revenue Ser­vice and receive a refund — all without those returns ever appearing on paper forms and without a refund check ever being written.

Following five years of trial programs, the IRS has this year allowed computer filing of taxes by certain ap­proved preparers. Beginning with the returns due this April, tax returns from anywhere in the country may be sent not only by mail to an IRS regional office but also by telephone line to an IRS computer.

Beginning of this year also, those who file by com­puter can elect to have their refunds deposited directly into their bank accounts. The result is that refunds that could take up to eight weeks to receive if the returns were filed in the customary way can now be in your bank account in as little as two weeks — no matter when in the tax season you file.

“Individual taxpayers may not yet do this,” explains Frank Keith of the IRS in Washington. “For reasons such as cost and security, only people who have had their sys­tems checked for compatibility arc allowed to transmit the information.”

What he means are professional tax preparers who have demonstrated to the IRS that they are set up to transmit complete data to the IRS.

The idea of filing by computer was an obvious one to the IRS. Most lax preparers were using computers al­ready. They would then print out the forms, or print the returns on standard IRS forms, and mail them to a regional tax office, where employees would take the forms and type the information back into a computer. This led, of course, to a bottleneck. Why not let the infor­mation go directly from computer to computer, and eliminate a series of inefficient and time-consuming steps?

In 1986, the IRS tried it out, in Raleigh-Durham, Cin­cinnati and Phoenix. It worked. It’s been phased in over the rest of the country since then, and this year is avail­able nationwide. In 1986, only about 25,(XX) returns were filed electronically. This year, about 2 million, or nearly 2 percent, of individual returns are expected to be filed by phone.

How does it work?Your accountant (or a company dealing specifically in

this service) sells you a computer program that lets you enter all the pertinent information, in some cases by answering a scries of questions. You type in the answers. The program decides which forms you need, fills in the blanks and can even print on plain paper your returns in a form acceptable to the IRS.

But usually you only print out a copy for your own files. The returns themselves are sent, either over the telephone line or by delivering the computer disk itself, to the accountant or company.

The accountant or tax company then goes over the returns, to make sure that they aren’t garbled. Then they are sent on to the IRS.

Forms that must be sent to the IRS, such as W-2s and 1099s, must still be mailed, as must a signature form, be­cause there is no electronic way to sign on the dotted line. Also, you must send the necessary information if you desire direct deposit of your refund.

That’s all there is to it.

‘Challenger’ movie shows taste, sensitivityBy Jay Sharbutt The Associated Press TV Topics

NEW YORK — It was inevitable dial someone would make a TV movie based on the Challenger space shuttle tragedy.

Suangc thing, though. Unlike many docudramas, writer-producer George Englund’s effort, with a cast that includes Barry Bostwick, Karen Allen and Peter Boyle, offers taste, rcsuainl, scn.siliviiy and a fair amount of attention to detail.

Opposed by many family members of the crew, some of whom call it an in­vasion of their privacy, “Challenger,” which airs Sunday on ABC, is anything but exploitative in relating die events leading up to the disaster that shocked the world on Jan. 28,1986.

It doesn’t even have what you’d expect for the finale, the fiery blast that destroyed the Challenger and killed its seven-member crew, among them Christa McAuliffe, a New Hampshire school­teacher.

Instead, it ends with the start of die launch, with the actors in die shuttle recit­ing lines from John Gillespie Magee’s famous poem on flying, the one that begins, “Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of earth ...”

The three-hour film juggles two ta.sks:

dramatizing the lives of die key Chal­lenger figures, as well as the bchind-thc- sccncs events in what became the worst accident in the history of America's space program.

It generally docs both well, having the benefits of Englund’s spare, taut script, Glenn Jordan’s tight dirccdon and — an equally imporianl factor — the National Acronaude and Space Administration’s advice and coojxjraiion.

The cast is first-rate, particularly Bostwick as mission commander Dick Scobee, Allen as the bubbly but deter­mined McAuliffe and Boyle as a worried engineer at Morton-Thiokol, Inc., builder of the shuldc’s booster rockets.

With short scenes that start with die crew members and their mates the ilay before the launch, the movie shifts back and forth from the technical side to the crew’s personal lives and their training for the Challenger flight.

The technical scenes involve the wor­

ries of Boyle and his colleagues about the emerging possibility of failure on the part of the now-infamous O-rings, which seal the rockets. It also shows the resistance that he and his engineers faced from their bosses, and then NASA officials, at the most crucial time.

On the personal side, there are good, concise sketches of each astronaut, in­cluding the other woman on Challenger, Dr. Judith Resnik (Julie Fulton), a veteran of an earlier shuttle flight.

And, of course, the show follows McAuliffe through her wide-eyed intro­duction to the space world, and opposi­tion to her by one astronaut, Ellison S. Onizuka (Kcone Young), who flatly op­poses amateurs in space.

Tlicrc arc only two scenes of flight in convendonal aircraft, but each is well- done, particularly one in which Bostwick takes Allen aloft in a T-38 jet trainer. The idea is to give her the feel of G-forccs, the pull of gravity she’ll experience aboard the Challenger at lift-off.

It’s a beautifully filmed pa.ssagc, im­parting a real sense of the sheer joy of flight as it shows her .startled, then delighted, reactions to a few rolls and loops. ‘Tve never known anylliing like this.” .she .says with a laugh.

Bostwick, as the friendly, unflappable Scobcc, smiles. “There isn’t anything like

this,” he says, urging her to do “some­thing you can tell the kids about.” Then he informs her she now has the controls.

She over-controls the jet, naturally. Then England cheats a bit, showing her putting it through a slow roll after only a few minutes’ stick lime.

But it's still a lovely scene. So is another, on the ground inside a NASA shuttle simulator, in which the flight’s sole black astronauL Ron McNair (Joe Morton), talks his young son through a pretend launch.

Not all of “Challenger" works. Two wholly fictional scenes, each involving McAuliffe, don’t ring true and slow things down.

But they’re exceptions to a firsKlass production that covers a lot of material with only one noticeable omission — that shuttle flights, begun in 1981, had be­come so seemingly routine by 1986 that ABC, CBS and NBC didn’t even air a live telecast of Challenger’s launch.

There was no press mob at the Ken­nedy Space Center then. Only 500 news sialTcrs were there when the flight ended in disaster.

Several years later, when the first shut­tle mission since the tragedy was scheduled, NASA estimated that 5,000 showed up to cover the launch of the Dis­covery.

F B I exam ines h an d lin g of C a ro l S tu a r t case

BOSTON (AP) — The FBI is investigating claims that city police mishandled their probe into the murder o f Carol Stuart by intimidating and coercing witnesses into implicating an early suspect.

Police Commissioner Francis M. Roache promised his department’s cooperation with the investigation, according to a statement Thursday from FBI agent Thomas Hughes.

Mayor Raymond Flynn said he welcomed the probe and vowed to take disciplinary action if any police officers were charged with wrongdoing.

Police named William Bennett as a suspect after the pregnant Mrs. Stuart was shot Oct. 23

. and her husband, Charles Stuart, was seriously

wounded in the city’s Mission Hill neigh­borhood.

Stuart’s statement to police that a black gun­man shot him and his wife touched off a mas­sive manhunt that many black residents said violated their civil rights.

Bennett was cleared of suspicion after Stuart apparently committed suicide Jan. 4, after learning that his brother had implicated him in the crime.

The FBI investigation stems from statements by several people who claim police coerced them into implicating Bennett.

Derek Jackson, 17, has claimed that police threatened him with 20 years in prison if he did not tell them under oath about an alleged con­

fession made by Bennett. He claims also to have been threatened with a beating.

Jackson said he recanted his story when he voluntarily appeared before the grand jury in vestigation into the Stuart case in November.

Three other teen-agers that police said were present when Bennett made his alleged confes­sion also have said they were forced into making false statements.

Mary Smith, 43, has claimed that police of­fered to release her son from juvenile custody and relocate her family if she cooperated in the Stuart investigation,

Ms. Smith told police she had seen Bennett on the night of the shooting with what ap­peared to be a gun.

NASA delays shuttle launch a second time

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — NASA prepared again today for the launch o f space shuttle Atlantis on a military mission that has been postponed twice because of an ailing astronaut and poor weather.

NASA officials said Thursday that Atlantis commander John O. Creighton, whose sore throat and head c o n g e s t io n fo r c e d the postponements, is feeling better. He will be reevaluated by doctors today to see if he is fit for flight.

Atlantis originally had been sc h e d u le d fo r la u n ch ea r ly Thursday. NASA rescheduled for early to ^ y , but just before noon Thursday again scrubbed the launch until no earlier than Saturday.

Weather continues to be a con­cern. Forecasters said there was only a 20 percent chance that the weather would be good enough to permit At­lantis to lift off before dawn on Saturday.

Sources said Atlantis will deploy a spy satellite during a four-day mis­sion.

In Thursday’s statement, NASA said that Creighton’s condition had improved, “but that he still has some infection o f the upper respiratory tract.’’

Physicians, the statement said, “recommend a minimum 24-hour postponement.’’

A front moved through the Ken­n ed y S p a ce C en ter area on Thursday, bringing high winds, clouds and light rain. Air Force forecasters said poor conditions probably will prevail until early Sunday, when they predicted a 70 percent chance o f favorable launch conditions.
