Ken Parker is playing Arnold, one of four mentally disabled men in Tom Griffin's 'Boys Next Door,' which opened on Friday and runs through Nov. 19. +Mr. Parker described his character as borderline, saying, 'Arnold is the highest functioning of the four, but 'his deck has no face cards,' as the playwright puts it.' he said. +The 'boys next door' live in a group home for the mentally handicapped, under the supervision of a social worker. But they participate, by varying degrees, in the outside world. Arnold has a maintenance job in a movie theater. Characteristics and Gestures +Before a recent rehearsal, Mr. Parker talked about how observing his son had sharpened his performance. 'I picked up his little characteristics and his repetitions,' the father said. 'Arnold keeps saying, 'I repeat.' And absorbing Dana's physical gestures helped. +'When Dana runs into a problem, he'll put his head down and he won't talk. There's a physical retreat, a compression, a defense mechanism that I adapted for the role. Until he connects and reaches out and asks, 'Do you like me?' or, 'Are you still mad at me?' And then he says, 'Hug me.' Even Arnold, at the end, admits that he needs help. Dana has helped me realize that with the proper guidance, people can function in the world, and that's what the play is saying. It isn't sugar-coated; it's honest.' +On how the Parkers have dealt with Dana's disability, Mrs. Parker said: 'When he was born, we knew right away. Sometimes parents sense something's wrong, but they don't know what. It helps to know what you're facing, but we also knew he was part of our family and we would not let this interfere with our life styles. Dana is treated the same as the others not as someone different, and he's not aware that he's different.' +Mrs. Parker is the theater's administrative coordinator, a job she described as 'house managing and jack-of-all-trades.' +The couple has three sons. Lloyd, 26, a mechanical engineer, is a resident of Newtown, and Chris, 23, a customer service man for a wiring company, lives with them. +About the importance of theater in Dana's life, Mrs. Parker said: 'He was brought up as a theater brat, dragged all over the country when Ken was playing in regional theaters in Seattle and in Chicago, and he feels that the theater belongs to him.' +'He loves to come on Strike Night,' Mrs. Parker continued, referring to the ritual of 'striking the set' at the end of a play's run. 'He likes to take things apart. And when the members of the drop-in center, which is an after-school recreation program for the mentally and physically disabled, came to a recent show here, Dana was the host and said, 'Welcome to my theater.' ' +For the Parkers, the Fairfield theater is a family affair. 'Lloyd and Chris have helped build sets and hang lights. They were once told that if they didn't work at the theater, I wouldn't feed them,' said Mrs. Parker, whose mother, Lois Mellor, 87 years old, assists in the payroll department and collects ticket stubs. +Although 'The Boys Next Door' takes place in the present time - it had its premiere in regional theaters in 1986 and moved to off Broadway the following year - the characters range in age from their late 20's to the 40's. 'They didn't have the advantages of Dana's generation - of early intervention to help them with speech and muscle control, so they don't function as well,' Mr. Parker explained. +Dana, now in his fourth year in alearning program at Fairfield High School, is expected to continue there until he reaches 21, his father said. In the range of retardation, from mild to severe, Dana is clssiified as moderate, his father said. His I.Q. score is 50 and he reads on a third-grade level. For the past six years, he has been wearing a hearing aid. +'There are plateaus in Dana's level of progress, but he keeps reaching new stages of maturity and independence,' Mrs. Parker said. 'And he takes logical steps. Eventually, when we get old, we'll have to institute procedures for him to be in a group home. Fairfield has four of them, and there's an eight-year wait to get in.' +Among their daytime activities, Mrs. Parker, who taught elementary school in Bridgeport for seven years, is currently a substitute teacher in the Fairfield elementary schools. Mr. Parker, who is a graduate of the Yale Drama School, teaches theater courses at the University of Bridgeport. +On the connection between the Parker family and 'The Boys Next Door,' the play's director and the theater's artistic director, Douglas Moser, said: 'In choosing this play, it would have been hard not to have had the Parkers in mind. They're a welcoming family. It's in their nature. And I pick up Dana after school. He's like my brother.' +Today's 7 P.M. performance is a benefit for the Kennedy Center, a vocational rehabilitation facility in Bridgeport.

Stern, chairman of the Hartz Group, plans to give more than $25 million to New York University this fall to strengthen its schools of business, which would be named after him and consolidated in a large new building on the Washington Square campus. +Leonard N. Stern, chairman of the Hartz Group, plans to give more than $25 million to New York University this fall to strengthen its schools of business, which would be named after him and consolidated in a large new building on the Washington Square campus. +It would be the largest donation ever made to the 157-year-old university, the nation's largest private school, which has undergone a fiscal and academic renaissance in recent years under the presidency of John Brademas. +Mr. Stern, who built a $1 billion fortune in pet products, real estate and publishing, graduated from the university's old school of commerce in 1957 and from its graduate school of business in 1959. A trustee of the university since 1976, he gave the school a $3 million gift in 1986. +Details of the gift - its exact size and specific plans for its use - are under discussion between Mr. Stern and university officials, and a formal announcement is not expected for another month, a spokesman for Mr. Stern, Howard J. Rubenstein, said yesterday. Discussing Plans for the Gift +Asked about a report on the gift in today's edition of Crain's New York Business, a weekly newspaper, Mr. Rubenstein said: 'New York University and Leonard Stern have been in discussions over the course of many months. The discussions have not been completed. However, there undoubtedly will be a major donation to N.Y.U. from Mr. Stern.' +University officials could not be reached by telephone for comment on the proposed gift yesterday, and Mr. Rubenstein said the university intended to make no details public until plans for the donation and its uses were completed, probably in October. +But he confirmed that there had been discussions with members of the faculty of the university's School of Business and Public Administration and the Graduate School of Business Administration, as well as with community leaders in Greenwich Village, where the school's main campus is located. +Crain's said the university would use part of the gift to build a 200,000-square-foot building on West Fourth Street, a block east of Washington Square Park, to consolidate business school activities now concentrated at 100 Trinity Place in Lower Manhattan and at sites around Wall Street and on the Washington Square campus. Preliminary plans for the new building have already been shown to a local community board, Crain's said. +Besides the Hartz Mountain pet products business, Mr. Stern, a 50-year-old entrepreneur who developed the Meadowlands of New Jersey, has real-estate holdings in New York and New Jersey and owns The Village Voice and the recently begun Manhattan weekly, 7 Days. The largest previous gift - $15 million to establish a center for Hellenic studies - was made to the university last year by a foundation created by Aristotle S.

Dinkins to search for a new president for the city's Health and Hospitals Corporation has been unable to choose a candidate, Deputy Mayor Cesar A. Perales said yesterday. +At a meeting with the Mayor on Wednesday, Mr. Perales said, the leaders of the committee ""indicated that they had not been able to meet their mandate to find a slate of candidates, that they felt a long time had elapsed and that they felt obliged to report to the Mayor."" +The co-chairwomen of the committee, June Jackson Christmas and Isaura Santiago-Santiago, could not be reached for comment. Dr. James R. Dumpson, the chairman of the Health and Hospitals Corporation, who has been serving as acting president and also as a member of the search committee, said, ""It is now in the Mayor's hands and I can't talk about it."" +The committee was set up after Dr. J. Emilio Carrillo resigned under fire in October. Its failure to find new candidates was first reported yesterday in The New York Post. Salary Is 'Clear Obstacle' +""The committee described their search,"" Mr. Perales said of the meeting with the Mayor, which he attended. ""They said they had received more than 100 applications and that they had held interviews with a much smaller number -- around 10 -- and they continued to come back to the point that they did not have the minimum of three names they had been requested to provide."" +Mr. Perales, who is Deputy Mayor for Health and Social Services, said one ""clear obstacle"" the committee cited was the salary of $129,000 being offered for the post. ""They indicated that good hospital administrators in major institutions were earning two or three times that amount,"" he said, ""while H.H.C. has 11 acute-care facilites, four nursing facilities and several clinics to run."" +Mr. Perales declined to name any potential candidates the committee had interviewed, or whom the Mayor might now ask to take the job. He said one committee member had asked whether Mr. Dinkins wanted them to continue to search, ""and he said, basically, that he would let them know."" +Dr. Carrillo, in effect, resigned twice. His first resignation, on Oct. 21, came amid investigations into the finances and care at the municipal hospitals as well as into Dr. Carrillo's own financial affairs, particularly reports that he had accepted loans from officials at private hospitals that had financial relationships with the city corporation. Under that resignation agreement, Dr. Carrillo would have continued to receive his $129,000-a-year salary for four months, while yielding control of the agency. +But 10 days later, after he angered the Mayor by claiming he was the victim of a ""targeted assassination,"" Dr. Carrillo was ordered to resign immediately or be dismissed." +False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,"You Get Maid Service, Meals and Quirkiness +The Hotel Olcott on West 72d Street in Manhattan is the kind of place where, in one room, a patient will confide to his analyst how bleak his life is, while, from an aspiring singer's room down the hall, will come wafting the cheery rhythms of ""Everything's Coming Up Roses."" +Tiny Tim lives there with his ukelele, as does the still regal Madame Nina Youshkevitch, with her late 1930's photographs of herself as a 16-year-old ballerina with the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo.

It is not really a hotel that you can check into for the night. Many of its 240 residents checked in 30 years ago and never repacked their suitcases. It is a residential hotel, an apartment house mostly for lazy people who do not want to make beds, cook dinner or buy furniture. People pay by the month -- $500 to $3,000 for suites of up to four rooms -- yet they can get maid service. +Its 16 floors are also honeycombed with shrinks. Analysts at the nearby William Alanson White Institute call the hotel the Annex. And also hidden within its mongrel confines are a bridge club, an electrolysis salon and the headquarters of actualism, which describes itself as ""the way of holistic enlightened awareness."" +The only tenant who has something grander than a hot plate to cook on is William Boot, whose hotel-based mail-order business ships cookbooks with his mother Harriet's zucchini recipes, all tested in his wardrobe-sized kitchenette. +In his spare time, Mr. Boot, a burly, bearded man who navigates his apartment like a logger trapped in a closet, has been working for seven years on the definitive book on the Great Pyramid at Giza. The measurements of the pyramid's rooms, he claims, are a numerical code that can be deciphered to predict the entire story of the Bible, written thousands of years later. +""It's the Bible in stone,"" Mr. Boot contends. +Mary Ann Malkin moved into the Olcott in 1980 after her husband, Sol, began using a wheelchair. She liked the Mitteleuropean atmosphere lent by aging refugees from Hitler, some of whom had chosen the hotel because they had grown accustomed to servants. +""The people here were just good to us,"" Mrs. Malkin said of the hotel's staff. ""I could take the wheelchair right up. They really were like a family hotel."" +In his last years, Sol, who lived a zestful life as the editor of a rare books magazine, savored the neighborhood beyond the Olcott's doors. +""Sol had a good time here,"" recalled Mrs. Malkin, as she sat in her snug living room filled with the dance books she collects. ""That was when Columbus Avenue was just burgeoning and he'd go out and he'd thought he'd seen the world."" +The psychotherapy patients waiting patiently at the elevator bench have never bothered her. ""They're not what you call sick people,"" she said. ""They have little problems that are big to them."" +Madame Youshkevitch raised her son, Robert, in the Olcott. She felt secure about his coming home from school and fortunate that he had Lincoln Center within a short walk. She even found the hot plate adequate for the steak and vegetables they ate. +""We made big dinners on that stove,"" she said. +Elderly people like the hotel because they can come down to the gently frayed lobby anytime and, pretending to get their mail, schmooze with Redmond Ward and Linda Montes at the front desk or with Lee Rosen, the manager. For lonely people, it is an artificial family, but better than one they could invent in a more anonymous apartment building. +Ralph Mittler is a tall, angular retiree of 87. He moved to the Olcott because he didn't want his wife cooking any longer. ""We did enough,"" he says. +Then four months ago, after 60 years of marriage, she died.

He used to talk periodically with Mr. Zinn across the hall, then Mr. Zinn also died, so he fills the time now taking walks and checking on his investments. +""Off the record,"" he confides, ""I invested all my money in tax-exempt bonds.

That's Aretha's Hair! +Fabulous and fabled though CLIVE DAVIS'S pre-Grammy party may be, KURT VONNEGUT, arriving with JILL KREMENTZ, had the look of a fellow who did not want to be there one bit. The scowl on his gnarled and craggy face gave him the look of an angry tree stump in a Disney movie. +'I'm here because Jill wants to be here,' Mr. Vonnegut said. +Would he like to tell us about music he loves? +'No, I don't like your newspaper.' +Why? +'You don't like me,' he said, walking away. +Oh. Mr. Conductor, segue please. +The Davis Party, which is to the Grammys as the Vanity Fair party is to the Oscars, only Mr. Davis, doing it since 1974, did it first. This year it was a sit-down dinner for 800 at the Regent Wall Street Hotel on Saturday night. Pink roses, Corinthian columns, a guest list that included MARISA BERENSON, FAYE DUNAWAY, MARTHA STEWART, SEAN COMBS, LES MOONVES, AHMET ERTEGUN, MICHELLE BRANCH and DENISE RICH. +HOWARD STERN, wearing shades, walked the red carpet, with his girlfriend, BETH OSTROSKY, a tall, blond model so striking that she may have put his performance anxieties to rest. Then again, as many celebs came in through a side entrance, maybe not. LANCE BASS, wearing a pin in memory of the crew of the Columbia, said he still hoped to travel in space. EVANDER HOLYFIELD, who lost part of his right ear to MIKE TYSON in that nasty incident a few years back, said his foray into the record business, with Real Deal Records, had not gone well. +'The only way I can go from this point is up,' said Mr. Holyfield, who was standing in such a way that the famed ear could not be seen. In order to do so, as he is such a big man, one would have to walk around him -- the earth, you might say, to his sun. +We find ourselves wanting to stare at your ear, Mr. Holyfield, we finally said. Does that happen a lot? +'Yeah,' Mr. Holyfield said, turning his head to reveal an ear with a snack-size indentation. +It's actually kind of cute, kind of like Mr. Spock. +'I don't mind people bringing it up,' Mr. Holyfield said, 'because every time somebody reminds me of it, it reminds me I got $35 million off the guy who bit off a piece of it, and it's not that bad.' +Mr. Davis, during dinner, shared his table with ALICIA KEYS, CARLY SIMON, ARETHA FRANKLIN and DANIELLE STEELE --'my divas,' he said happily. The legendary Ms. Franklin is now quite stout. Her hair, pulled high on her head, looked like the fronds of a palm tree, so that were she to star on a survival show on a desert island, she could provide her own shade. +SHARON OSBOURNE sat with her son, JACK, and daughter KELLY, who was wearing a deep-cut bodice that clung to her with the elegance of a rubberized garment. Ms. Osbourne, who has colon cancer, had her last chemotherapy treatment last week. She looked healthy and said she had lost only a small amount of hair. 'I had an ugly wig, but the doggies ate it,' she said. +Mr. Davis, wearing an enthusiastically striped vest with his tux, took the stage to present the acts, happy and excited as a kid starting out, though he is a kid of 68. JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE sang his hit 'Cry Me a River.' ROD STEWART, wearing white tie and tails, sang a standard or two before loosening his tie and teaming up with LOU REED and singing 'Havin' A Party,' which seemed to make him much happier. +Mr. Vonnegut left as Ms. Franklin was on stage, belting, 'It's My Turn.' +He was still scowling. +Aretha, Can Whoopi Borrow That Dress? +While the Grammy Awards were being telecast Sunday night, WHOOPI GOLDBERG was doing a commentary on the events downstairs at the Theater at Madison Square Garden, at a benefit for Save the Music, which supports music education in schools. +Billed as the Blue Grammy Viewing Party, it was sponsored by the American Express Blue Card, and no doubt in homage, much of Ms. Goldberg's material was blue. +We will substitute the word 'bleep' for the naughty words. For example, Ms. Goldberg's response, or so she told the crowd, when asked to appear on the show: +'Bleep no,' Ms. Goldberg said, 'I'd rather be here than upstairs. The other reason I didn't do the Grammys is because I got fat. It's just for skinny girls.' +Ms. Goldberg, who is starring in 'Ma Rainey's Black Bottom,' was outfitted in forgiving velvet duster over loose white shirt and black trousers. She invoked Aretha Franklin: 'She's big. We like that. She's about 18 of these skinny girls. What have I got to talk about? Look at my behind.' +She hooted when early in the show DUSTIN HOFFMAN called BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN 'Bruce Springstreet.' +'How can you mess up Springsteen's name? I'm menopausal and I can say the man's name.' +During commercial breaks, she took questions from the audience. +'Where's Frank?', a woman called out, speaking of Ms. Goldberg's one-time beau, FRANK LANGELLA. +'She's talking about a man from 10 years ago,' Ms. Goldberg said, adding a remark about her romantic life, which, sadly, we have found necessary to bleep in its entirety. On the bright side, for a fat girl, her romantic life is pretty good. +After the Grammys, there were live performances by PETE YORN and the Grammy-winning band Coldplay. CHRIS MARTIN, the front man for Coldplay, is dating GWYNETH PALTROW. She came in, as the lights went down, with a few girlfriends. She was wearing a flowered, sheer blouse and casual slacks. Mr. Martin, introducing a number, said, 'It's a song about falling head over heels in love.' Ms. Paltrow seemed lost in the music. Then a handler told Ms. Paltrow they had to leave, in order to beat the crowds, and she did. +Boldface Names" +False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"NEWS SUMMARY +LEAD: INTERNATIONAL/3-19 +INTERNATIONAL/3-19 +Afghan guerrilla attacks on Kabul and on troops of the Soviet-backed Government within 10 miles of the capital have accelerated sharply.

He was 90 and retired two months ago. +Mr. Gardner, as founder and longtime director of the boat-building classes at the museum, taught thousands of people to build small wood boats with 19th-century methods. A venerated figure, he was known to his colleagues for his encyclopedic knowledge of world history and his extensive vocabulary. But for all his erudition, nothing Mr. Gardner learned from school or from his voluminous reading made as much impression as the simple lessons of coastal craftsmanship he learned as a boy in Calais, Me. +Like generations of New Englanders before them, his father and grandfather made boats for their personal use, cutting the wood for their construction at the same time that they cut firewood for the winter. +By the time he went to college, to the Maine Normal School, Mr. Gardner had acquired the skills that he would pass on. +For all that, it took a while for Mr. Gardner to return to his life's calling. Initially intending a career as a teacher, he received a master's from Teachers College at Columbia University in 1932, but was almost immediately distracted by the Depression, his populist leanings and the experience of hobnobbing with radical socialists in Greenwich Village coffeehouses. +He spent the rest of the 30's as a full-time radical, participating in a march on Washington, picketing the White House and working as a labor organizer for the Congress of Industrial Organizations. +He took a job as a professional boat builder in Marblehead, Mass., in 1940 and later worked in a boatyard in Quincy, Mass., turning out picket boats and other craft for World War II. +He found his first major platform for popularizing small boats when he joined The Maine Coast Fisherman magazine, now called National Fisherman, in 1940 as technical editor. He held that position for the rest of his life. +By 1969, when he joined the Mystic museum, he had a large and devoted following. When he began his boat-building classes the next year, they were an almost instant success, drawing afficionados who drove three hours or more to learn how to use rudimentary tools, like wooden planes, spokeshaves, drawknives, the adz and the broadax to build peapods, Swampscott dories, Rushtons and Whitehalls. +An expert in the history of small boats, Mr. Gardner built a copy of the racing boat given Lafayette on a tour of the United States in the 1820's. +Mr. Gardner, who wrote books on boat building, also believed that museums should not be static repositories. Under his prodding, Mystic started a livery where visitors can rent historic boats and copies. +But for all his devotion to boat building, Mr. Gardner's interest in boats ended at the water's edge. When a colleague once asked him out for a sail, Mr. Gardner told him that he had not been on the water in 25 years and had no intention of going again. +Besides his daughter, Jean, he is survived by two sisters, Sally Oppedisano and Mary Richards, both of Portland, Me. Mr. Gardner's wife, Beatrice, died in 1990." +False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Sir Laurence Kirwan, 91; Helped Plan Ascent of Everest +Sir Laurence Kirwan, an archeologist and the former director of the British Royal Geographical Society, and a man for whom harsh and forbidding deserts, mountaintops and polar ice caps were irresistible attractions, died April 16 in a hospice in London. He was 91. +Sir Laurence was noted for excavating royal tombs in the Sudanese desert dating from the fourth and fifth centuries A.D., for promoting the exploration of Antarctica, and for helping to plan and finance the first successful ascent of Mount Everest. +For the three decades after World War II, he was the director and secretary of the Royal Geographical Society, a privately supported institution that many Britons look upon as a remnant of lost empire. In that role, he was involved in the planning and financing of three great expeditions. +The most widely known was the Mount Everest expedition of 1953, which ended in triumph when Sir Edmund Hillary and his Sherpa guide Tenzing Norgay became the first people to stand at the summit. +Also widely admired was the Norwegian-British-Swedish Antarctic Expedition of 1949-52, which was the first international expedition to Antarctica and the first to explore the possibility that global warming might be a cause of the reduction of the polar ice cover. +The third project was the Trans-Antarctic Expedition of 1955-57, led by Vivian Fuchs. In previous years, aircraft had flown across the polar ice cap, but this was the first land crossing, with the explorers riding in huge tanklike 'snow cats.' Several of these cumbersome vehicles tumbled into 'a maze of deep, concealed crevasses of unparalleled extent,' Sir Laurence wrote in his 1959 book 'The White Road,' after interviewing the explorers. But the caravan eventually completed the crossing 'with almost military precision within a day of the planned date.' +Robin Hanbury-Tenison, the British explorer, recalled, 'He spurred you to greater things by making you want to please him.' +But Mr. Hanbury-Tenison recalled an exception. 'When I told him Richard Mason and I wanted to drive across Latin America at its widest point, from Recife, Brazil, to Lima, Peru, he said there were good and sufficient reasons why it hadn't been done before and that we'd never make it. After we did make it in 1958, he said, 'Well done, chaps,' recommended us for a minor award, and then wrote the preface for the book I wrote about our journey in which he apologized for the fact that he hadn't thought much of our project when we started out.' +Archibald Laurence Patrick Kirwan was born in 1907 in Cregg, County Galway, Ireland, and was educated at the Wimbledon School and Merton College, Oxford. From 1929 to 1934, he was the assistant director of an archeological survey of Nubia. In 1935 he was the co-author of 'Excavations and Survey Between Wadi-es-Sebua and Adindan,' in which he discussed the excavations of some of the earliest settlements in that region of the Sudan. +For the next three years, he carried out further excavations as the field director of Sudanese expeditions conducted by Oxford. It was during this period that he directed excavations of the royal tombs at Ballana and Qustal, publishing his discoveries in 1938. +During World War II, he served at the Ministry of Defense and was promoted to lieutenant colonel in 1943. Immediately after the war, he was named the director and secretary of the Royal Geographical Society. He was knighted in 1972, and continued as the director and secretary until 1975. After his retirement, he continued as the editor of The Geographical Journal for three years. +The picture of an aristocratic archeologist, Sir Laurence stood 6 feet 6 inches tall. He was known as a gentle but painstaking professor when he taught at Edinburgh, London and Cairo universities. +He was married twice. His second wife, Stella, died in 1997. He is survived by a daughter, Jennifer Preston of London. +Sir Laurence's involvement in two Antarctic expeditions excited his interest in what he called 'the cold deserts' and led to his 1959 book, which was published in the United States a year later under the title 'A History of Polar Exploration.' +His contribution to polar exploration is acknowledged in such place names as the Kirwan Escarpment, in Queen Maud Land in Antarctica, and the Kirwan Inlet on Alexander Island off the Antarctic Peninsula."

'But there are concealed animosities.' +Indeed, dog walking in the vicinity of the popular dog run, which attracts dog lovers from throughout the city, has become a cutthroat business in which walkers can earn from $600 a week up to more than $100,000 a year. In this weak economy, dog walkers are watching both their charges and their backs. At Hillside, back-stabbing and bickering has sullied what was not long ago a vocation for slackers. +'It got too competitive and too nasty,' said Ms. Johnson, who is quitting after two years to attend pharmacy school. 'One person went around saying that one walker's dogs were biting other dogs on the dog run. It hurt the walker's feeling, and it hurt her reputation.' +One dog walker, Jennifer Bauch, fought back. When she learned that a rival was disparaging her, she confronted the offender in a tight elevator. +'I told her that I was going to get a restraining order and that she was not going to able to work in my building,' recalled Ms. Bauch, who became well known in Brooklyn Heights after she organized a memorial service for a deceased dog lover three years ago. +Nor have all the tiffs been behind closed doors. One walker aired her grievance at a local movie house. 'It was loud enough to be embarrassing,' Ms. Bauch said. 'This walker said, 'Thanks for stealing my pooch.' ' +Ms. Bauch, a lawyer, epitomizes the new breed of walker: an ambitious, animal-loving entrepreneur. She turned to her current occupation after her dot-com employer went out of business two years ago. +'People think it's a paper route, but I take it very seriously,' said Ms. Bauch, a Marisa Tomei look-alike who works as many as 16 hours a day. When she's not singing out greetings to everyone from Montague Street panhandlers to Muffet Jones, president of the Hillside dog run, she is passing out business cards to anyone who, as she puts it, 'even glances at a can of dog food in the supermarket.' +Upon request, she serenades her clients with operatic arias. Last Christmas, she presented them with framed pictures of their precious pets. While others struggle, Ms. Bauch picks and chooses her clients. +'She dumped me,' Elizabeth Lippman said. 'I was horrified.' Ms. Lippman is a freelance photographer whose irregular schedule did not jibe with Ms. Bauch's. Ms. Bauch often refers clients to her protégé, a part-time bouncer, but she acknowledges that her competitive juices are still flowing. 'When I see someone walking a new poodle,' she said, 'I'm hit with tinges of jealousy.' +JON HART +NEIGHBORHOOD REPORT: BROOKLYN HEIGHTS Correction: November 17, 2002, Sunday An article in the Neighborhood Report pages last Sunday about dog walkers in Brooklyn Heights misstated the new career of Jessica Johnson, who is giving up that occupation.

He said many Chinese families are moving to Sheepshead Bay from Chinatown, mirroring the migration of Italians and Jews who moved there from the Lower East Side half a century ago.

Like many other businesses in Sheepshead Bay, Century 21 has Cyrillic, Chinese and Latin lettering on its awning. +Ms. Tong, who has lived in the area for 24 years, was pleased when stores like the V & H Supermarket opened on Avenue U and East 13th Street to sell everything from snails, live crabs, snow pea tips and oyster sauce to green tea, woks and rice cookers. +""I used to go to Chinatown once a week to go shopping,"" she said. ""Now I go here. They have everything."" +There have been tensions. In the late 1980's, a series of racist fliers charged that the Chinese were ""smiling at us behind our backs and planning to take over the whole neighborhood."" And there have been problems with the gangs that prey on Chinese people all over the city: two years ago the police rescued nine hostages from a Bedford Avenue house after they had been kidnapped by members of the Fuk Ching gang. +But Mr. Tseng, of the church, said that relations have improved and that officers from the 61st Precinct have been helpful. Now Mr. Tseng -- whose church comprises two buildings and a basketball court marked by a sign proclaiming ""Jesus Is Lord"" in English and Chinese -- is thinking about expanding. His summer day camp has grown so large that he now rents space from Public School 254, on East 18th Street.

Levitow, the only Air Force enlisted man to be awarded the Medal of Honor during the Vietnam War, died Nov. 8 at his home in Rocky Hill, Conn. He was 55. +The cause was cancer, his family said. +On the night of Feb. 24, 1969, Airman First Class Levitow was serving as loadmaster of an AC-47 gunship circling over the besieged United States Army base at Long Binh. The plane was firing thousands of rounds of ammunition at enemy forces and dropping magnesium flares to illuminate their positions for the American ground troops. +Airman Levitow, on his 181st combat sortie, was responsible for removing the flares from a rack, setting their controls and passing them to a gunner who would pull the safety pins, then throw the flares out a cargo door. The flares, attached to parachutes, ignited in midair 20 seconds later. +In the fifth hour of the mission, a Vietcong mortar hit the plane's right wing and exploded, opening a hole two feet in diameter and sending shrapnel through the aircraft's skin. +Airman Levitow was hit by 40 pieces of shrapnel in his back and legs and was stunned from the blast's concussion. 'It felt like a large piece of wood struck my side,' he would recall. +The other four crewmen in the cargo compartment were also wounded as the pilot struggled to keep the plane under control. +The gunner, Airman Ellis Owen, was about to toss a flare out the cargo door when he was wounded. The flare, fully armed and capable of burning through the plane's metal skin if it ignited, fell from his grasp. +As Airman Levitow was moving another wounded crewman away from the open cargo door, he saw the smoking flare rolling wildly from side to side among thousands of rounds of ammunition. An explosion seemed imminent. +Airman Levitow reached three times for three-foot-long, 27-pound metal tube holding the flare, but it slipped from his grasp each time. Finally, he threw himself on it, hugged it to his body and dragged it to the open door, trailing blood from his wounds and having lost partial feeling in his right leg. +He heaved the flare outside the door. A second or so later it ignited, but it was clear of the aircraft. +The pilot, Maj. Kenneth Carpenter, made a safe landing at the Bien Hoa air base with more than 3,500 shrapnel holes in the fuselage. +'I had the aircraft in a 30-degree bank, and how Levitow ever managed to get to the flare and throw it out, I'll never know,' Major Carpenter said. +After being treated for his injuries, Airman Levitow flew an additional 20 combat missions. He was discharged from the Air Force in August 1969 as a sergeant and received the Medal of Honor from President Richard M. Nixon at the White House on May 14, 1970. The citation stated that he 'saved the aircraft and its entire crew from certain death and destruction.' +John Lee Levitow, a native of Hartford, worked for federal and state veterans' agencies for more than two decades after leaving the Air Force. He was the legislative liaison and director of planning for the Connecticut Department of Veterans Affairs at the time of his death. +He is survived by a son, John Jr., of Charlotte, N.C.; a daughter, Corrie Wilson, of Cromwell, Conn.; his mother, Marion Levitow, of South Windsor, Conn.; a sister, Mary-Lee Constatino, of East Hartford, Conn., and a grandson. +Long after receiving the nation's highest award for valor, Mr. Levitow was honored again. +In January 1998, in a ceremony at Long Beach, Calif., the Air Force named a C-17 Globemaster plane for him.

Levitow.'" +False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Campus Life: Boston College; Theater Course Offers Insights Into Soviet Union +The ""Teatralnaya Masterskaya"" a Soviet theater course being offered to Boston College students for the first time, does more than teach run-of-the-mill ""Russian Theater 101."" +The course, conducted entirely in Russian, is intended to imbue the art of Soviet theater with music, dance, poetry and improvisation. It also explores the Soviet tolerance, or intolerance, of waiting in line for goods and services. +The one-credit class, co-sponsored by the Boston College Department of Slavic and Eastern Languages and the Slavic Club, is held every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 8 A.M. +The class begins with dance in order to invigorate and motivate the students, said the instructor of the class, Marina Chernyak, a graduate of the Leningrad Institute of Theater, Music and Cinema, who has directed a number of youth theater programs in the Soviet Union. +Waiting in Line +The mood is set by background music, and poetry is used as a fundamental element in learning about Russian culture. For example, the class may recite Boris Pasternak's translation of ""Hamlet"" before engaging in a theme from Mikhail Bulgakov's play, ""Zoya's Apartment."" +At any point, the play may be interrupted to add an improvisational pushing and shoving scene that reflects the idea of waiting in line for long periods of time. The aspect of waiting in line is also incorporated into the class itself because the pieces for study are especially selected by the instructor to portray the frustrating and aggravating conditions prevailing in the Soviet Union. +""Constantly speaking the language is extremely important in order for students to become fully immersed in the Soviet culture and to actually begin thinking like Russians,"" said John Gavin, a senior member of the class from Norwood, Mass., and president of the Slavic Club. ""You pick up things much faster than in a regular classroom environment."" +Vicki Stoy, a senior from Otego, N.Y., who is also a Russian major, agreed, ""It's great practice for my Russian conversational skills.

There still are some important things to do and laggards, as most of us are, may just need a little prodding to get on with it. +Some deeds can be put off until the end of next month. But some can't. The first thing on everyone's minds is leaves. They are magnificent while shrouding the fall landscape. But as soon as they start to fall on the lawn, the charm fades. +Crews with leaf blowers are everywhere these days. Some machines are hand held, some are back packs, while those behemoths that clean large properties are engined and wheeled. A few homeowners still use the old-fashioned rake. Whatever is used, the lawn looks pristine, but only until the next windstorm. +One way to get rid of the piles is to haul them to the streets for municipal pickup. Better is to haul at least a portion of the leaves to a compost pile. In a year or less, this splendid free organic matter will shrink down to that grand soil additive often referred to as black gold. +When sieved to screen out heavy clods and twigs, compost is a superb additive to potting mixtures. In fact, it is a big plus when planting anything, improving the soil as it is dug into the planting hole. +Once the last of the leaves has fallen and the trees have that wintery bare look, it is time to mow once more. The last mow should be a short cut -- one to two inches is about right. The reason for this is to get rid of tall blades so that come spring, there will be less grass top for the new growth to push up through and the greening will have an easier time. +After the last mow, clean the mower properly. If blades need sharpening or the motor servicing, beat the spring rush and take the machine in for repairs during the winter months. When all is shipshape, cover the mower snugly to protect it during the cold weather. +Bulbs? In the ground. Better to plant even at this late date then to leave them to wither away in the back of the garage. The soil will not really chill down for another month or so and there is plenty of time for the bulbs to initiate root growth before the soil gets too cold. +There have been many stories told of forgotten bulbs being discovered in the back of the garage sometime in January. During the usual thaw in late January or early February, delinquent gardeners have rushed out, shoved the neglected bulbs in the ground and hoped for the best. Much to their surprise, these bulbs have bloomed. Maybe not quite on schedule, perhaps several weeks late, in fact, but bloom they did. +This is a possibility, but it is still much better for the bulbs to be in the ground when their schedules call for it. +Planting of woody plants can also continue well into the next month; in fact it can go on as long as the soil can be dug and worked. But it is iffy because the roots may not have sufficient time to settle in properly before a really heavy frost sets in. +Meanwhile, during whatever pleasant days may still lie ahead, a good old-fashioned garden cleanup is in order. Cut down the blackened stalks of perennials, pull out weeds and remove any diseased foliage that the frost may expose. This type of cleanup is a form of garden sanitation that prevents insects and disease spores from surviving over the winter months. +Empty those clay patio tubs, too, and haul them into a garage for safe keeping. Winter's freeze will often crack them. Containers made of rigid polyethylene materials can be left outside provided the soil is left in them to help retain their rigidity. +Several projects should be delayed until the end of next month. The first of these is mulching. A mulch blanket should not be put down until the ground is frozen. Its job is to keep the ground frozen, protecting it from cracking open and exposing roots. +Last of all to consider are the anti-desiccant sprays. These sprays are often recommended by landscapers to protect evergreens during the winter months. There are several products on the market, but they should not be applied until well into the cold season. +The anti-desiccant spray is a waxy coating that protects leaves from transpiring, or losing moisture. When the ground is frozen, it is difficult for roots to replace moisture lost through the leaves, so the sprays help out until the roots are back in action. +These are the same spray materials recommended for use during the Christmas season to help cut trees retain leaf moisture. +Most of the anti-desiccant spray directions suggest that the product be re-applied in February just to be sure the plants are well protected. +The sprays are especially useful for certain evergreens that may be of questionable hardiness or durability as is the case with some holly cultivars and rhododendrons. +GARDENING" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Filming the Family +HALFWAY into 'Chocolate Chip Cookie,' a documentary by Erica Jorgensen about her parents' interracial marriage, there is a passage that captures the conflicting feelings some people harbor about mixed marriages. +On screen, in stark black and white, is Harriette Knight, one of Ms. Jorgensen's African-American relatives from Gary, Ind. She is discussing what her response would be if her own daughter announced she was going to marry a white man. 'I would say, O.K., I still love you,' Ms. Knight tells the camera. 'And I'm going to be nice to him. And of course I'm going to love your children. But it's not something that it's, 'Yippee! Yay!'' +Her comments, which serve as sort of a centerpiece for the film, were among favorites of the 18-year-old Ms. Jorgensen. 'I love that interview because she was so honest,' she said. 'What she said was the way a lot of people felt. They just maybe weren't willing to admit it.' +With an innate sense for the revealing moment and a deftness for handling issues that even adults often fumble, Ms. Jorgensen recently won a national 'Student Emmy' for her 10-minute film, which she produced for a broadcast journalism course at her school, the Convent of the Sacred Heart in Greenwich. She received her award on June 3 from the National Television Academy Foundation during a ceremony in Los Angeles. +All 16 judges voted her film the best in the arts and entertainment/documentary category. +'She got the highest scores of anybody in any of the categories,' said Av Westin, executive director of the foundation. 'It really was spectacular.' +The Jorgensen family lives in a rambling, converted hunting lodge, on a winding, hilly road in Redding. Life mostly swirls around the many activities of Erica and her sisters, 12-year-old Natalie and 8-year-old Grace. +Peggy Jorgensen, an elementary school teacher, and husband, Donald, a carpenter, started dating in 1974. Peggy Jorgensen, now 49, was a student at Concordia College in Bronxville, N.Y., and Mr. Jorgensen, 50, was pumping fuel and towing planes at Westchester County Airport when they met through mutual friends. +She was black. He was white. They fell in love. Their friends raised no questions about the couple's racial differences. Nor did their families make a big deal about it There were some looks from strangers, however, and an occasional crude remark. +'If we were in a restaurant and people turned their heads, I always thought they were thinking, 'What a beautiful couple,'' Ms. Jorgensen said. 'If they had a problem, it was their problem. It just wasn't their business. This was our relationship.' +They married in 1980. Erica was born six years later. Even as a small child, said her parents, she had a bottomless reservoir of questions and a forthright personality. +Mr. Jorgensen tells of a family vacation in the Virgin Islands when his daughter was 4 years old. They were on the beach and the girl kept demanding that her parents move her blanket, then do this, then do that. 'And here are two adults running around like crazy doing everything she says,' he said. 'A woman watched this for awhile. Then she turns around and says, 'That one's a little general, isn't she?'' +Ms. Jorgensen was introduced to video production in junior high, where she was involved in the making of her school's CD-ROM yearbook. +Come ninth grade, she applied for admission to Sacred Heart's new broadcast journalism course, was accepted and began to hone her skills. She remained with the program four years, longer than any of her classmates. +Often, she made videos when projects were called for in other classes. One summer, Manhattanville College hired her to make a short promotional film about a children's theater program. +Toward the end of her sophomore year, encouraged by her broadcast journalism teacher and her mother, Ms. Jorgensen began to consider a documentary about her family. +Introduced to racism when a childhood friend taunted her with vulgar remarks about her mother and her parents' marriage, Ms. Jorgensen grew curious about the experiences of her parents and how relatives responded to the relationship. +In the summer of 2002, during a visit to her maternal grandmother and other relatives in the Midwest, Erica began taping interviews, first in Gary, Ind., then in Minneapolis. Over the next year, she interviewed about 20 people on all sides of the family. +Last fall, in between applying to colleges, she began weeding through eight hours of footage, and figuring out how best to tell the story. +She wanted her subjects to speak for themselves, so she limited her narration to a brief introduction and closing. Laying in bed one night, the opening lines simply came to her: 'I am a chocolate chip cookie. I'm the product of two very different ingredients. My father is white. My mother is black.' +The bulk of the film is a series of interview segments, following her parents' early relationship, their marriage and her birth. Among the more moving anecdotes, her grandmother remembers Peggy Jorgensen dismissing those who might make life difficult for an interracial couple, insisting, 'Nobody is going to interfere with my happiness.' +Mr. Jorgensen's mother, meanwhile, tells of holding newborn Erica while another mother who shared Peggy's hospital room craned her neck to see what a biracial baby looked like. +Set to the music of folk-rocker Ben Harper, with a montage of photos from her parents' life together, the film's message is positive. Her family is happy, Ms. Jorgensen said; be happy for us. +After a screening for about 250 students at Sacred Heart's Upper School this winter, Ms. Jorgensen's classmates and teachers gave her a standing ovation. Then dozens gathered around, to hug and congratulate her. 'People were crying,' she said. 'I was sobbing. I didn't expect that reaction.' +The film connected on many levels. Beyond her regional and national Student Emmys, 'Chocolate Chip Cookie' won best documentary in the Westport Youth Film Festival last month. Requests have come in for the film at libraries and schools. +Ms. Jorgensen, meanwhile, has been accepted to George Washington University for the fall and is on the waiting list at Brown. She is also pondering a longer documentary that would explore not only interracial relationships but interfaith couples as well. +When she was recognized during the nationally televised Daytime Emmy Awards, a clip of her film ran and Ms. Jorgensen and her parents were shown in the audience. +Out in Minneapolis, Erica's maternal grandmother, Clorasteen S. Wilson, called every relative she could think of and told them to watch. Some were disappointed, she said, that the girl wasn't invited up on stage. +Just be patient, said Ms. Wilson, 'I think this is not the end of hearing from Erica.'" +False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Corrections +Because of an editing error, an obituary of the biographer William Manchester on Wednesday misstated the name of the Baltimore newspaper for which he reported.

'It would cost us two and a half times more.' +At first, Mr. Grant stayed in a hotel and returned home on weekends, which kept them apart. The answer: Keep the home in Pennsylvania but rent an apartment in New Jersey to live in during the week, and have Ms. Grant get a job in New Jersey. +In January 2000 they found an apartment in Morristown, and several months later Ms. Grant left her accounting job at a chemical company in Pennsylvania and began working for an advertising agency in Millburn. Last December, she took the job at R&J. +Now the couple usually returns to New Jersey from Pennsylvania on Sunday night to avoid the Monday morning crunch on Interstate 80, which Ms. Grant said could be a nightmare, especially in winter. +'A little ice and a little snow and a little fender-bender and you're backed up forever,' she said. 'We've left at 5 a.m. on a Monday thinking we could be here at 7, and there was an accident, and we didn't get here until 10. So an hour-and-40-minute drive turns into five hours.' +Her drive to work from the apartment, however, is 8 minutes -- or 25 minutes at worst -- and for her husband it is a half-hour. Another benefit: They are closer now to their daughter, who is a sophomore at New York University, and still close enough to their son, who is a senior at Cabrini University in Philadelphia. +'We have the best of both worlds,' Ms. Grant said. 'Some weekends we stay here, and we really enjoy the area. We love to go into the city on the train. But we also love the quiet of Pennsylvania and the beauty I was brought up in. I can leave the window open and hear the animals and birds, whereas here you hear the whiz of the traffic going by.' +George James" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,"The Making Of a Mogul +To the Editor: +To say that Marcus Loew 'created the movie palace,' as you do in the headline, is like saying that Henry Ford invented the automobile. +Many people were involved in the movie palace, but if you had to single out the individual mostly responsible, it would be Samuel L.

Imagine having to drag them down Lexington Avenue to be cleaned, as passers-by stare at the spectacle. And after a nearly 20-block trip to the New York Doll Hospital, imagine having to drag them back when it turns out to be too expensive to bother. +Now that's friendship, wouldn't you say? +Well, yes and no. +'That's my business, after all,' said Linda Rothschild, a professional organizer who helps people take charge of their disordered lives and possessions. 'And I've had to deal with stranger things in people's homes, like teeth that I've found lying around, or even kidney stones.' +Luckily, there were no kidney stones at the Upper East Side home of Kay Unger, a fashion designer who called Ms. Rothschild a few years ago in a moment of crisis. She and her family had to move on short notice from a large apartment to a smaller one and needed to sort out their things before they did. +'The first thing I said when I called Linda was that I needed a wife,' said Ms. Unger, whose professional life left little time for the practicalities of the move. 'Besides, I am more of a visual person than a list person. I'd rather sit and sketch.' +So Ms. Rothschild listed, packed and supervised . . . and dragged those dolls, which had belonged to Ms. Unger's mother. And the two women became friends, too. +'She has become part of my life,' said Ms. Unger, as Ms. Rothschild nodded. 'We like each other.' +Perhaps that's because they are almost polar opposites. 'Kay's idea of a list and mine are very different,' Ms. Rothschild said. 'Hers are outdated, dogeared and duplicated.' +Ms. Unger smiled. 'It's true,' she confessed. 'I panic when I see a stack of papers. And I call Linda.' +Ms. Rothschild has done a lot for Ms. Unger since that first move. She has bought gifts for Ms. Unger's friends and her children's friends ('that Bar Mitzvah year,' Ms. Unger said of the time her son had a party nearly every weekend). She has presided as telephone systems have been installed, and she once even inventoried every appliance in a new apartment and ordered the service manuals for them. Nowadays, actions like these are sometimes favors, although there are times when they are still strictly business. Like when Ms. Unger and her husband recently separated. +'Linda was the one we called first, before the lawyers,' said Ms. Unger, whose friend promptly went to work for her estranged spouse. +Did that interfere with their friendship? No, both women replied. Ms. Rothschild explained that she also knew Ms. Unger's husband, who had become comfortable with her. Besides, she said, she kept her work for him -- moving him to a hotel and then to a new home -- completely professional and impartial. +'I didn't decide who got what,' she said.

The articles cited comments by former Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger and by Brent Scowcroft, the first President Bush's national security adviser, among others. +The Aug. 16 article described Mr. Kissinger's expressed concerns about the need for building an international coalition before waging war and his doubts about the Bush administration's plan to make 'regime change' the center pole of its policy. But it should have made a clearer distinction between his views and those of Mr. Scowcroft and other Republicans with more categorical objections to a military attack. The second article listed Mr. Kissinger incorrectly among Republicans who were warning outright against a war. +Republicans are in fact divided, both over the way Mr. Bush is preparing for the possibility of war and over whether the United States should attack Iraq. Mr. Scowcroft wrote in a recent opinion article that he opposes an attack because it could undermine or destroy a global antiterror campaign and might also set off attacks by Iraq against Israel or lead to a wider regional war. +The Times's Aug. 16 article was based in part on a syndicated opinion article published by Mr. Kissinger on Aug. 12 in The Washington Post and other newspapers.

And in the interim, 300 to 400 new beds will have to be found each year at existing prisons or at other state-owned locations -'just to keep our head above water,' said William H. Carbone, chairman of the State Commission on Prison and Jail Overcrowding. +In a report to the General Assembly last month, the commission said, 'The prison overcrowding problem has clearly worsened.' Unless prompt action is taken, the report added, 'large numbers of inmates will assuredly be released.' +State officials attribute the squeeze to two factors - a relentless increase in the number of people being sent to prison and a 1984 state law that will trigger the emergency release of inmates if the number of inmates exceeds specified limits at the state prisons for 30 consecutive days. +No one has yet been released under the measure, but state officials said the critical period will be between 1988 and 1991 when the proposed new prisons begin to open. +In an interim step to deal with the prison shortage, the State Bond Commission on March 27 approved the sale of nearly $7 million in state bonds. +The commission approved $2.7 million to build a 100-bed, minimum-security dormitory at the Hartford Correctional Center; $3.5 million for a 100-bed minimum-security dormitory at the women's prison in Niantic; $500,000 for maintenance at several corrections facilities, and $50,000 to begin designing additions of 200 beds each at the state's medium-security prison at Cheshire and the state's only maximum-security prison, which is in Somers. +Among other possibilities being considered by state officials is converting the lockup at the recently opened State Superior Court building into a jail for 100 inmates. Another possibility would be to acquire a portion of the National Guard's Camp Hartell in Windsor Locks to house 150 people serving short sentences for drunken driving. +As a longer-term solution, state officials are beginning to look for sites to build three major medium-security prisons - one of 800 beds in central Connecticut within 30 miles of the existing prisons at Somers and Enfield, one of 400 beds in western Connecticut in the vicinity of Waterbury and one of 500 beds in an unspecified area of eastern Connecticut. +State officials have not put an overall cost on the prison expansion program, but costs have been estimated at $85 million for the central Connecticut facility and $34.5 million for the western Connecticut prison. These would be financed by the sale of state bonds, which would have to be authorized by the Legislature. +The search for places in which to put the prisons already has stirred opposition in some areas. +Last month, after the state sought bids to buy a privately-owned site for the 800-bed prison, only one proposal was received, for a 125-acre site in Windsor that abuts the northern end of Hartford and 120 acres of land the state already owns. +Community leaders in Windsor and neighboring Hartford and Bloomfield have opposed putting a prison there. State officials said they will look for other possible sites on state-owned property before finally selecting a site in the late spring. +'I think every place has to be looked at, and certainly all people have to be listened to,' Governor O'Neill said recently. 'The last thing in the world I think anyone in the State of Connecticut wants is to have people released out on the streets. That would have to take place if we do not have additional facilities to house criminals in the State of Connecticut.' +The average number of inmates in the state prisons is projected to reach 7,040 this year, compared with 3,110 in 1977, and is not expected to begin tapering off until the late 1990's. As of last week, Mr. Carbone said, the number of male inmates was within 50 of the population limit specified in the 1984 emergency release law. +State officials said the rising inmate population reflected, in part, more stringent sentences imposed by the legislature in recent years, such as mandatory prison sentences for some crimes. +Within the last year, according to state figures, the number of the most serious felony cases disposed of by the state courts increased by 17 percent. Drug arrests increased by 72 percent betwen 1981 and 1985, and the number of people sentenced to prison for driving while intoxicated jumped to 1,864 last year from 460 in 1984. +With the aid of a $24,000 Federal grant, the State Judicial Department last month created a task force to consider a variety of sentencing alternatives that would provide judges with options other than incarceration. +Under existing law, the state already allows intensive probation and supervised home release instead of prison sentences for some offenders. State officials said these alternative sentences have saved more than 2,000 prison beds per day since 1981." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,"Day Care for Alzheimer's Cases Spreads +For three years Eva Woody, 87, has lived with her brother and his family in Port Jefferson. +When Mrs. Woody, whose Alzheimer's disease was diagnosed several years ago, was no longer able to care for herself, her brother George Patterson hired an attendant. +Last month after an adult day-care center, the Community Program Center, opened in Port Jefferson, Mr. Patterson decided to take his sister there two days a week to see how she would like it. +""I've seen such a remarkable difference in her that it's almost hard to believe,"" he said. ""Since she's been going to day care she's begun to eat better, to pay more attention to things and to ask questions that she hadn't asked in a long time. For someone who had been feeling so alone the center has brought her back some dignity, and she's begun to feel again that she's somebody worthwhile."" +The Community Program Center in Port Jefferson is one of 30 adult day-care centers on Long Island. They aim to help families with elderly members, including those suffering from dementia, the loss of intellectual functioning that affects memory, thinking and judgment, most often caused by Alzheimer's disease. +The growth in day care is an important change in the care of Alzheimer's, said Chris Morris, executive director of the Long Island Alzheimer's Foundation, a support and referral agency. +""These individuals tend to stay well physically,"" Ms. Morris said, ""but need 24-hour care. With more working adults on the Island who want to keep a loved one at home, day-care centers have become a viable alternative to getting the individual with Alzheimer's out of the house and into an accepting environment."" +A growing elderly population on Long Island has gone hand in hand with a rising number of diagnoses of dementia. In Nassau County more than 180,000 people older than 65 have the disease, and more than 140,000 in Suffolk have it, according to Dr. Lory Bright-Long, director of the Long Island Alzheimer's Disease Assistance Center in Stony Brook. +The center is one of eight centers throughout the state that provide diagnosis, management, education, information and support for Alzheimer's patients and their families. Of the counties in the state, Nassau has the highest aging population, and Suffolk ranks third, Dr. Bright-Long said. Minimum of 40,000 Patients +People over 85 are the fastest-growing segment of the aged population, she said, adding, ""By most reports 15 percent of the population over 65 and 47 percent of those over 85 have dementia."" +There are no exact figures on the number of Alzheimer's cases on the Island, but experts offer estimatesfrom 40,000 to 60,000. The disease affects not only the individuals, but also an average of four other family members, Ms. Morris said. +""It's a family disease,"" she said. ""Some people must stop working to take care of a family member with Alzheimer's. When calculating figures family caregivers must be counted in the numbers impacted by this disease."" +Alzheimer's is a progressive degeneration disease of the brain, causing confusion, memory loss, personality and behavior changes, impaired judgment and difficulty in finding words, finishing thoughts or following directions. Its cause and cure are not known. +Four million Americans have Alzheimer's. Its only absolute diagnosis is examination of brain tissue in autopsy. But clinical tests to exclude other conditions like stroke, depression, drug reactions, metabolic changes and nutritional deficiencies have improved the diagnoses over the last few years to 80 percent, Ms. Morris said. +People with Alzheimer's usually live an average of 7 to 12 years after its onset, Ms. Morris said, adding that plans for long-term care have to be a priority for such families. Experts say more than half nursing-home patients are victims of Alzheimer's or related disorders. +Five residential nursing homes in Nassau and five in Suffolk have dementia units. +Seventy percent of the Alzheimer's cases are cared for at home, said Jarie Stedman, director of the Nassau-Suffolk Alzheimer's Association. ""And that's if they're lucky,"" Ms. Stedman said. ""Many Alzheimer's patients are isolated and don't have the family support that they need."" +Dr. Bright-Long said day-care centers did not include medical services, but focused on socialization. +Nassau has 13 centers and Suffolk 11. +The Community Program Centers in Deer Park and Port Jefferson offer the aged a chance to socialize with peers while reinforcing eating habits through communal dining and strengthening social skills through social interaction, said the director, Toby Wiles. +The centers provide exercise, discussion groups and games oriented to the participants' ability, she said, adding that to accommodate working families they are open from 7:30 A.M. to 5:30 P.M. Taxi companies provide transportation. A third center is to open in Ronkonkoma next year. +Dr. Bright-Long said it was difficult to measure the success of the programs because they did not arrest the disease. But, she added, ""anecdotally we have nothing but positive reports, both for the Alzheimer's patients and for the family caregivers."" +Ms. Wiles said families had found that when their relatives were physically and mentally stimulated in the day, they were more alert at night, had better appetites, slept better and looked forward to the activities at the center the next day. +""Especially for older caregivers, there's still a stigma attached to having someone in the family with a mental problem,"" Ms. Morris said. ""But the generation of sons and daughters whose parents have Alzheimer's are more receptive to reaching out for necessary support."" +The 79-year-old mother of Anthony Grosso of Deer Park has been going to the Port Jefferson center three times a week for a month, he said, and she has grown more energetic and more talkative. For two years, since Mrs. Grosso's dementia was diagnosed, her daughter has cared for her. +Mr. Grosso said the center had eased the burden on his sister and made a big difference for their mother. Chatty and Cheerful Patient +""She may not remember if they gave her lunch,"" he said, ""but she's very chatty and cheerful. When I recently went to the center and peeked through the open door she had a smile on her face while she was busy talking to someone next to her, and she seemed more relaxed than I'd seen her in a long time."" +The fee center is $29 a day, plus $30 a week for transportation, expenses that Mr. Grosso and his sister share, he said. +The burden of financing care often falls on the patients and their families. The costs for day care range from social-model programs, which average $30 to $40 a day, to more than $100 a day for medical-model day-care programs, of which Long Island has six. +For those at home the cost for an aide averages $20,000 annually, with families' covering most of the expense. The annual cost for patient care in a nursing home may range from $36,000 to $60,000. +A patient with Medicaid can qualify for long-term home care and receive some financial reimbursement for an aide or for day care if the center contracts with a home agency. But, Dr. Bright-Long said, for most middle-class families, the money has to be paid out of pocket. Recent Breakthrough +In September the Food and Drug Administration approved tacrine, better known by its brand name, Cognex. It is the first drug certified for treating patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer's. +Dr. Fredrick T. Sherman, a geriatrician and internist in Huntington, was approved by the F.D.A. to use Cognex experimentally, basis, and he has prescribed it for 50 patients in 18 months. Of the patients who had no severe side effects and continued using the drug, 70 percent showed improvement in cognitive functioning, memory and language, Dr. Sherman said. +""It's the first time that we can partially reverse the effects of Alzheimer's disease,"" he said. ""Before the approval of Cognex we could only treat behavioral symptoms by management of the environment."" +Dr. Sherman cautioned that Cognex had not been approved for dementia from strokes or for severe Alzheimer's patients. Patients with mild or moderate Alzheimer's have to be carefully screened before using the medication, he said. Mild Alzheimer's, he explained, is defined by impairment of work and social activities, but still having the capacity for independent living. In moderate Alzheimer's independent living is hazardous, and some supervision is necessary. +""There is a tendency to be skeptical about the use of new drugs in old people,"" Dr. Sherman said, ""especially since Alzheimer's was always thought to be untreatable. But with increased knowledge we're starting to see changes in attitude.

""He was an avid New Yorker and loved giving walking tours through the city's neighborhoods."" +In 1980, Mayor Edward I. Koch named Mr. Halpern to the Manhattan planning job, soon after the merging of several city planning offices, including the Mayor's Office of Midtown Planning and Development, where Mr. Halpern had served as director for two years. +During the early 1980's, Mr. Halpern was a prime advocate behind a failed movement to convert Times Square into a mall. Besides the South Street Seaport, he created design plans for the Lower East Side, Central Harlem, Spanish Harlem and Manhattan Valley, as well as zoning guidelines for midtown Manhattan, the Upper West Side and the East Side. +As a practicing architect in New York, Mr. Halpern designed homes as well as office buildings. The design of his summer home in Pantelleria, Italy, was acclaimed. His book, ""Downtown U.S.A.: Urban Design in Nine American Cities,"" published in 1978, is an industry staple. +Mr. Halpern was born in Chicago. He received a bachelor's degree from the University of Minnesota and a Master of Architecture degree in Urban Design from Harvard University's Graduate School of Design in 1970.

Checks with departments of motor vehicles, voter registration rolls and military records have all proved fruitless in the search for the missing husband, he said. +The Community Law Offices, a division of the Legal Aid Society, has always relied on volunteers to handle the clients who come to it for legal assistance in uncontested divorce cases. But while the stream of clients seeking help has never abated, volunteers' interest comes and goes. A Sharp Upturn +The last year or so, however, has seen a marked revival of enthusiasm by the paralegals who form a major part of the office's volunteer corps. Some volunteers attribute that to renewed interest by the senior lawyers at their firms who encourage the paralegals to participate; others say it is a sign that the apathy that engulfed the 1970's and 1980's may finally be cracking, at least when it comes to lawyers. +Whatever the reason, according to Elyse A. Adrian, a paralegal at Davis, Polk & Wardwell, 'there's more interest at the firm now than I've ever seen for the program.' +At the 106th Street offices, the Wednesday night sessions bustle with clients, volunteers and their harried supervisor, Paulette J. Williams, a lawyer with the Legal Aid Society. On one recent evening, Ms. Williams answered questions from an unending stream of volunteers while she simultaneously doubled as the office's receptionist and attended to an anxious process server. +About 25 other volunteers work one night a week to counsel clients and file the voluminous paperwork even uncontested New York divorces entail. Most volunteers, like Mr. Kersch and Ms. Adrian, are paralegals, many of them working for a year or two between college and law school. Some also come from the Junior League, a women's organization that supplies volunteers to a number of projects. Pulling Lives Together +While the volunteers handle the cases, a lawyer must sign all the official documents. And the lawyers on the staff of the Legal Aid Society handle any contested divorces. +'We're helping people pull our clients' lives together, in a sense empowering them to move on to another stage in their lives,' said Ms. Williams. Most of the program's clients are women, and most are suing for divorce because they have been either abandoned or abused. +In one case the program is handling, Ms. Williams said, a woman is seeking a divorce from the husband she married at age 14 and has not seen for decades. The woman never needed to formalize the separation with a divorce, but she now wants to adopt a child and cannot do so without a divorce. +That woman, like almost all the program's clients, is receiving public assistance. No client who can afford the $109 court fee without the society's assistance can be admitted to the free program, Ms. Williams said. 'You're Really Helping Somebody' +Without the free matrimonial service, 'she just couldn't afford the legal fees for a divorce so she couldn't afford to adopt the foster child - it's that simple,' Ms. Williams said. +Despite the strict limits on qualifying income, demand for the service booms, often stretching the resources of the Community Law Office. At any one time, the program has about 100 cases pending. +An average divorce takes one of the volunteers about a year to complete, but some of the cases can stretch out over two or three years, Ms. Williams said. +That can test the patience of some of the volunteers, but several said their incentive comes from the chance to practice law on a personal level that their daytime jobs do not allow. 'Here you really get a chance to meet with a client,' Ms. Adrian said.

His life back then revolved around the Bronx River -- that sluggish stream which bisects lower Westchester County before it blows a watery kiss to Manhattan and ripples into the East River near Hunts Point. +In those days, the boy and his friends -- they could have passed for Huck and Tom -- were frequently down by the river, barefoot, with pants legs rolled up and bamboo fishing poles in hand. They cruised the river and fought mock naval battles on homemade rafts. They caught sunfish and catfish, turtles of several varieties and sharp-toothed crayfish. +The small boy's biggest catch was the smooth, round object he happened to step on when wading in the river. It was about two feet deep right there, and so he couldn't see what lay below. Inquisitively, he wriggled his foot against the thing. It seemed about the size of a bowling ball, half buried in the sandy bottom. +Within minutes, he was rolling it to shore. By then, he had no doubt what it was. He'd seen pyramids of these bleakly glowering things at war memorial monuments. Unlike some, this cannonball was hollow and with a fuse hole almost two inches in diameter. +Even when drained of water and mud, it was too heavy to lift. It took the small boy better than an hour to roll it to his house a mile away. +Once it was installed in a corner of his bedroom, and the small boy was tucked under his covers, scenes of derring-do danced in his head. +The boy had learned in a social studies class that the Revolutionary War had chewed its way through Westchester in the fall of 1776, and so he imagined that the cannonball had figured in that conflict. But then he recalled that the nearest scene of fighting was the Battle of White Plains -- about eight miles north of where he'd found the cannonball. +How could it have traveled so far? he wondered. +The boy dreamed up an answer. Since he had found the cannonball at the foot of a cliff almost 80 feet high, he guessed that as Washington's men trudged along the river bank from New York City to White Plains, the cannonball had accidentally rolled off an ammunition cart, plunged over the cliff and disappeared in the river. +That explanation satisfied the boy for several years until, as a young adult, he tried to write a school paper on the subject. He consulted the classic 'Battles of the American Revolution,' published in 1877 by Henry B. Carrington, a professor of military science at Wabash College in Crawfordsville, Ind. +Carrington's book was especially useful because it reproduced historical documents and included vintage topographical battle maps, including a map of the Battle of White Plains. +Carrington told how General Washington, in full retreat from Harlem Heights, set a lethal trap for Sir William Howe, George III's commander in America, who was in hot pursuit. +Washington reached White Plains first and fortified the nearby Chatterton Hill. He then lured Howe to the river's edge. Howe let loose with an artillery barrage -- mainly ineffective -- and then drove his men to ford the river and struggle up the hill while being showered with musketry and artillery. +The redcoats lost 230 killed or wounded that day. +That was almost twice the number lost by the Colonists, according to Carrington. +It was one of the first clashes to demonstrate that the Colonial Army was led by a general well versed in strategy. +At first, Carrington's chapter on White Plains seemed to confirm the young man's theory about the cannonball, but soon it compelled him to reconsider. +Whereas Carrington wrote that Washington had marched 'along the west bank of the Bronx,' the cannonball had been discovered on the east side of the river. +Well, then, the young man thought, perhaps the cannonball was British and toppled off a British ammunition cart on the east side of the river. +But Carrington foreclosed that possibility, too. Howe's forces, he wrote, pursued Washington on a course 'parallel with the River Bronx' but never within several miles of it until they approached White Plains. +The young man tore up the paper he was writing. +As the young man grew older, the cannonball cropped up in his thoughts from time to time. +In 1981, it occurred to him that the iron ball itself might harbor the secret of its origin, so he sent photographs to the director of the West Point Museum, seeking help. +The response was prompt. The cannonball is a 10-inch mortar projectile and 'probably dates to the period of the American Civil War,' came the reply. +The distinguishing characteristics of a Revolutionary War cannonball, the director explained, were the 'ears' that stood out on either side of the fuse hole. These extensions were helpful in gripping the cannonball and lifting it into the bore of the gun. +In contrast to ears, the young man's cannonball had indentations so that it could be grasped and lifted with pointed tongs. +Discouraged by this news, the young man dropped the matter a second time. +Years went by until he (now the father of three) happened to take his family to the Gettysburg battlefield in Pennsylvania. The weapons on display reminded him of the old cannonball. And so, just a few weeks ago, he called Harry Hunter, curator for ordnance at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington. +'Sure, it could be from the Revolution!' Mr. Hunter sang out in answer to the query. 'They used both types -- with ears and without ears. They weren't so particular back then.' +And then, at last, the river spoke -- through Rhodes Fairbridge, a Columbia University emeritus professor of geology. +'Yes, definitely,' Professor Fairbridge told his interviwer (whose hair has now turned gray). +'A cannonball could be moved eight miles by the action of the river in the course of two centuries. The way the current works is that it scours sand or mud at the downstream edge of the object and causes it to roll. It's like a surfboard rider as he skims a wave. He's always on a slope. Quite large boulders are rolled in this way, even when the river descends at a relatively low angle.' +As good as those explanations were, they may not be the end of it. These mysteries lie uneasily in their graves. +Yet what seems plausible at present is that when Howe bombarded Chatterton Hill, one earless round fell short and went hissing in the river. +Then, as the years went by, the cannonball waddled down the river's course to where the small boy found it. No, it had not been carelessly discarded. No, indeed. It had been dragged to the battlefront and grimly fired at the Colonists. But the river put its fire out. And so, Washington and his men escaped its wrath and lived to carry on at Trenton and Yorktown. +And thus, the river told its tale. +Other Vestiges of the Battle of White Plains +IT wasn't a stroke of military genius like the victory at Trenton, nor as decisive as the Battle of Yorktown, but Washington out-led his British opponent at the Battle of White Plains in October 1776. +Washington's strategy included fortifying a hilltop near White Plains, and then tempting Sir William Howe to drive his redcoat army across a river, and then up the hill while Washington's men rained musketry and artillery on them. +The redcoats took the hill, but only after suffering almost twice the number of casualties as the Colonists. When the smoke of battle cleared, it was evident that the Colonists' rag-tag army was a far more effective fighting force than the British had supposed. +Vestiges of the battle may still be seen where it was fought. +WILLIAM H.

Unaided by speechwriters or spelling checkers, he wrote his own sentences and (literally) cut and pasted blocks of text. Then he gave away the document. +Yesterday those four pages of secular scripture -- morally fraught, politically hedged, tactically drafted -- were delivered to the New-York Historical Society in Manhattan. The proclamation will be on display beginning tomorrow and continuing through Oct. 16. After that, a facsimile will be shown with the museum's exhibit 'Slavery in New York,' which runs through March 5. +So posterity gets just a glimpse of the real thing. +Lincoln wrote the proclamation by hand during the summer of 1862, then issued it on Sept. 22, 1862, after the fierce, bloody draw at Antietam. His prose style, normally soaring and resonant, became guarded, bunkered language drawn to survive legal and political challenge. He sliced two printed paragraphs from martial powers legislation, and with paste from a pot, fixed them between his own words. 'Clumsily,' noted Van Judd of the New York State Education Department, custodian of the document. +The proclamation emancipated no one immediately, but changed everything eventually. End the rebellion within 100 days, and the government would compensate the slaveholders for freeing their slaves, Lincoln said. Otherwise the slaves 'shall be then, thenceforward, and forever free,' he wrote. They would be shipped to a colony. The proclamation did not apply to slave states that remained in the Union. +Was he trying to free the slaves or win a stalemated war? 'How many hours do you have?' said Eric Foner, a historian at Columbia University. 'He concluded this was a necessary step to ending the war.' The final proclamation -- in January 1863, after the promised 100 days -- dropped the notion of a colony and said slaves could join the Union military forces. (That document was destroyed by fire.) +After issuing the proclamation, Lincoln told friends that he realized emancipation was the absent purpose in his life that he had hoped to discover when he contemplated suicide in the 1840's, according to 'Lincoln's Melancholy,' by Joshua Wolf Shenk (Houghton Mifflin, 2005). +Lincoln donated the preliminary proclamation to an Albany war relief raffle. The State Legislature bought it and gave it to the state library. It sat in an envelope until the 1950's, when the pages were fitted into a steel frame embedded within another frame, protected by glass that limits radiation.

Knabel and her husband, Harry, dutifully fired off a burst of holiday cards when the weather turned chilly and the Santas took to the streets. But 10 years ago they looked at their address list and said: ""Enough!"" After living for so long in New York City and traveling extensively in Europe, the list had swollen to more than 200 names and it was no small feat to inscribe the cards, label the envelopes and lick the stamps. +So the Knabels decided to give the money that they would have spent on cards and postage to The New York Times Neediest Cases Fund. And then they spread the word that they were contributing to charity in honor of their relatives and friends instead of mailing them season's greetings. +""When you've been married over 60 years and kept on sending them and sending them, you finally realize that this is a better way,"" said Mrs. Knabel, a 90-year-old retired social worker whose husband died a few years ago. She lives in Long Island City, Queens, and sent $25 to the fund. +Instead of buying that umpteenth sweater or tie, many people make contributions to the Neediest Cases in lieu of holiday gifts and cards.

""The idea of a gift at Christmastime is the thought behind it, not the actual article. My contribution was small, but I guess all of the small ones add up."" +The New York Times pays for the overhead of the Neediest Cases campaign, so all contributions are given directly to seven charities.

Thanks to relentless pressure, the landlord, David Eshaghian, removed it in January. +Residents rejoiced. The eyesore was gone. Business on the street could pick up again. Homeless people would not sleep there anymore. +And then it rained. Almost on cue, the facade of the building began to plummet. Last month, the Department of Buildings ordered the scaffolding back up. And there it is. When one local woman saw it, she screamed. +The scaffolding originally went up so the building could be renovated. But residents and merchants nearby said little work had been done. +'The facade is made of a special limestone that deteriorates all the time,' Mr. Eshaghian said. 'When we put it up, we did some repairs and they told us it would be an ongoing problem, so we kept it on for safety. But you know how Upper East Side people are, so we decided to take it down.' +The Department of Buildings has fined Mr. Eshaghian $17,500 for code violations and for lacking a permit for the scaffolding. His permit expired in November 1999. +Mr. Eshaghian said he would fight the fine in court. He also said the department had refused to renew his permit. +Meanwhile, the fate of the scaffolding will be sealed by next winter, Mr. Eshaghian said. By then, he plans either to peel off the facade, like a slice of cheese, and replace it, or demolish the building and be done with it. +ANDREW FRIEDMAN +NEIGHBORHOOD REPORT: UPPER EAST SIDE -- UPDATE" +False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,"NEWS SUMMARY +INTERNATIONAL +A3-10 +Turkey a Real Contender For Full E.U.

Heading down the path from Belvedere Castle with her guardian and two canine siblings, Cheyenne suddenly broke away and bounded into Turtle Pond, home of snapping turtles, ducks and loons. +An astute mother mallard directed her ducklings toward the tall grass to the north, and proceeded to quack and flap her wings wildly. Cheyenne began a hot pursuit and although her clunky paddle was no match for the duck's easy glide, she was not deterred. Pleas from her agitated owner, a tennis ball thrown in her path and the gathering crowd failed to distract her from the task at hand. Cheyenne was no ordinary dog. +Forty-five minutes later, the police and park staff arrived. Someone suggested the owner herself be sent into the pond to catch the dog. The owner, at wit's end, shed her sandals and made her way into the snapping-turtle-infested waters. Thus we saw a duck followed by a dog followed by a wild-haired woman wearing a life preserver provided by the Park Conservancy. +It became clear that the woman had no more chance of catching the dog than the dog did of catching the duck. Finally two police officers took off on the pond in a rowboat. The capture was swift. The last thing we saw was the owner standing over Cheyenne, shaking her head and shouting, 'Cheyenne, how many times have I told you not to chase ducks!' +LAURA MORRISON +Ralph Holzwarth's friend, Debra Sweezey of Stone Mountain, Ga., was preparing Jessica, her 4-year-old daughter, for her first trip to Manhattan. Mrs. Sweezey mentioned some of the sights they would see and that they would ride the subway, 'a train that runs under the ground.' Wide-eyed, Jessica asked: 'But how do we get down to the train? Do we have to dig?' +THE IMAGE +Perhaps you have seen me -- strolling in front of the Plaza or exercising in Central Park. +I was born beautiful! How many times have I heard it!

I still look good -- from a distance? +My hair was always my best feature. Now it takes twice as long to get it the way it used to look. The daily manicure is a nuisance. Borderline starvation is the only way to keep my slimness. If that goes, I'm finished.

Recently, my perspective shifted. +I was taken by ambulance, in the middle of the night, to Beth Israel Hospital North with severe abdominal pains. In the morning, I began to worry about my outside appointments for that day and the next. I had no money with me, but I soon discovered that Beth Israel provides a cellular phone in the emergency room for patients. I called my neighbor, who has my keys, told her whom to call in my address book and got that worry off my mind. Later in the day, another cell phone came to my rescue as my neighbor took hers into my apartment and I directed her from room to room, telling her where to find things I needed. +RETTA BLANEY +While on the subject of cell phones: Judith Nochimson Stein was on a Wall Street-bound subway on a weekday when it stopped for almost an hour because of a fire in the station ahead. After 45 minutes, as the passengers sat frustrated and restless, fretting about missed appointments and irate employers, a lone entrepreneur made his way through the cars yelling, ballpark style: 'Call your offices, call your families. One dollar a minute on my cell phone.' He wasn't discouraged when Mrs. Stein's car produced smiles but no takers. He just went on to the next. +R. Michael Wirin parked on 36th Street recently, and when he returned a few hours later, his one-touch 'keyless' keyholder wouldn't open his car. After thinking of paying a streetwise kid to break into the car, or throwing himself on the mercy of a police officer, he hailed a nearby parking attendant, hoping the man wouldn't hold it against him that he hadn't entrusted his car to the lot. The attendant took the clicker in hand and said, 'Empire State Building.' Mr. Wirin explained that he wasn't a tourist looking for that skyscraper. The attendant scrambled under the car and voila, the locks magically opened as he reappeared and said again, 'Empire State Building.' At this point, Mr. Wirin asked him to explain.

The church, after all, was Abyssinian Baptist, one of the biggest and most influential in Harlem, and the one renowned worldwide for its gospel music. +'We have always been big,' said Ms. Simpson, surrounded by her four daughters, all in their Easter Sunday best. 'We have always been famous. We were prepared.' +Every Sunday brings tourists from all over the world, but yesterday's 11 A.M. service drew hundreds more than usual to the church, where they pleaded and wheedled in German, Russian and French with the 30 ushers on duty for a precious seat. +'Easter, you have the annuals,' said Willie Williams, a church usher, referring to members who attend church only on holidays. 'You have the regulars. And you have the tourists. It's chaos.' +Drawn by Abyssinian Baptist's choir, cited in guidebooks around the world, as well as the grandeur of the Easter service, thousands milled around the length of the entire block. +One of the ushers, Jerome Wright, had to muster his high school French to turn away a group of eager tourists. 'C'est tout,' he said. 'Ne pas possible. Regular members only.' +Even with its three balconies and room for about 2,800, many of the regular members were turned away from the 9 A.M. service because tourists had already taken the seats. +'They were frustrated and angry,' said Roger Feggins Jr., an usher. 'A lot of them were loyal members who come consistently and help build up the church.' +But the later service was reserved for church members. Tourists were directed by the ushers to two nearby churches, Mother African Methodist Episcopal Zion and St. Mark's United Methodist. While those churches may not be listed in guidebooks, most of the tourists emerged satisfied with the experience. +The preachers at those churches had made a point of welcoming them, and the congregants had given them rounds of applause. +'It was not the lively gospel we were expecting,' said Joey Mitchell, an accountant from Montreal.

Auden wasn't far off. Commenting on Oscar Wilde's plays, all written in the three years before the playwright's sensational trials and imprisonment for the crime of 'gross indecency' in his affair with young Lord Alfred Douglas, he wrote that Wilde had created 'a verbal universe in which the characters are determined by the kind of things they say, and the plot is nothing but a succession of opportunities to say them.' +That stated, 'The Importance of Being Earnest,' Wilde's masterpiece on stage at the Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey here, is about as witty and cheeky a work as you can find. A superb cast, under Tamara Harvey's beautifully paced, detailed direction, revels in language that sparkles and in audacious comic predicaments that produce guffaws. Add Cameron Anderson's eye-catching scenic design -- a visual riff on William Morris and the English Arts and Crafts Movement -- and Michael McAleer's lavish costumes evoking the foppish couture of upper-crust English society, and you have the makings of an enchanting production. +Ms. Harvey doesn't miss a chance to bring her sophisticated comic intellect to bear.

'Anyone can play accurately,' he says, 'but I play with wonderful expression.' +Wilde may have written the rib-tickling text, but the choice of music is nothing less than inspired. +While being earnest is of absolutely no importance to any of Wilde's self-impressed characters, appearing earnest is the name of the game. And appearances are highly suspect in this rowdy romp in which fictional characters jostle with their real-life counterparts for center stage. +The plot involves Jack Worthing (Gareth Saxe), abandoned as an infant only to be adopted by Thomas Cardew. With the old man's demise, Jack has gained, as his ward, the luscious Cecily Cardew (Elena Shaddow ), granddaughter of the deceased Mr. Cardew. Ever in search of a compelling reason to escape country life, Jack invents a wicked city brother named Earnest whose indiscretions demand Jack's intermittent supervision. +In town lives Algernon, a rogue played to comic perfection by Steve Wilson. Algernon's main job is keeping his rich and formidable aunt, Lady Augusta Bracknell (Jane Altman) at bay while he seeks amorous adventures. +Algernon decides to check out Cecily after overhearing Jack mention his country address as he established credentials with Augusta as a first step to a possible engagement with Gwendolen, her willful daughter (Caralyn Kozlowski). Assuming the persona of the errant Earnest, Algernon falls madly in love with Cecily, guarded zealously by her governess Miss Prism (Susan Greenhill). To his surprise, the young woman admits that, three months earlier, without ever having met her Uncle Jack's missing sibling but simply at hearing his wonderful name, Earnest, she had declared them engaged. +Two blushing brides-to-be, both engaged to fictional men named Earnest -- a name they each cherish, a name to which neither suitor has a legitimate claim. +'The Importance of Being Earnest,' Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey, Madison, through Oct. 2.

Vodak, a horticulture and forestry specialist at Rutgers University's Cook College in New Brunswick. +Mr. Vodak and other state agricultural and forestry officials said that wooded farmland was taxed at a rate of about $25 to $30 an acre under farmland assessment, compared with $2,000 to $3,000 for nonfarmland. +The amendment to the assessment act gives developers and other woodland owners the option of keeping their tax status if they present a plan to manage the woodlands productively, so it is unlikely they will immediately develop the woodlands or clear-cut their acreage to circumvent the amendment, state officials said. +The amendment requires that all woodland owners with farmland assessment status report for the first time the size of their holdings and how they are used. +The amendment was one of several measures passed by the Legislature to halt the ever-quickening pace of residential and commercial development and the concomitant loss of farmland. +The State Agricultural Statistics Service, a joint state-Federal agency, said that from 1980 to 1985, on average, New Jersey lost 20,000 acres of farmland and 200 to 300 farms a year; in 1986, 40,000 acres and 500 farms were lost. Last year, said Chris Cadwallader, the service's deputy statistician, 50,000 acres and 600 farms were lost. +An earlier measure, the Farmland Preservation Act of 1981, called for the state and local governments to each pay half the cost of buying and preserving farmland, with the state's $50 million Farmland Preservation Bond as the main source of funds. +In return for accepting fair-market value for his land, a farmer would agree to include a deed restricting the land from being sold for anything but farming. +'I hate to say it's been a losing battle because I am mostly an optimist,' said Michele S. Byers, project director for the New Jersey PU JP SALE Conservation Foundation, a nonprofit organization based in Morristown that buys and holds land until a buyer willing to preserve it can be found. +Ms. Byers said that the state's Department of Agriculture and the farming community had a goal in 1970 of preserving 900,000 acres of farmland. That goal had to be revised last year to 500,000 acres, she said, because of the losses of the last 10 years. +Mr. Cadwallader said that there were now less than 850,000 acres of farmland and 7,600 farms in the state, and that a survey to be completed in August would probably show even lower numbers. +Olin D. White Jr., a forester and assistant director of the Department of Environmental Protection's Division of Parks and Forestry, said that New Jersey had had an aggregate annual loss of 7,000 to 8,000 acres of trees so far this decade. +According to Mr. White, there are 'no guarantees' in the Farmland Assessment Act amendment that woodland owners will not sell their acreage when faced with the requirements of paying $600 or so for the required management plans and seriously working their land. +It also is possible, he said, that an owner could simply clear-cut his tract or sell the timber, the land or both, rather than submit to the new state regulations. +On the other hand, Mr. White said, it is 'by far to an owner's economic benefit to have a management plan to comply with the amendment because of the vast difference between what he would be making from the woodlands, compared to the small cost of the management plan.' +Ms. Byers said that one shortcoming of the 1981 Farmland Preservation Act was that its provisions were 'voluntary' for each county. Counties, she said, have the option of creating Agricultural Development Boards to identify potential farm tracts to buy and preserve before they are sold to developers. +However, she said, counties have been slow in setting up the boards and are generally not aggressive in identifying potential acquisitions and negotiating and consumating a fair-market sale. +Only 1 to 2 percent of New Jersey's farmland has been preserved in this way since 1981, Ms. Byers said. But an amendment to the Farmland Preservation Act, which took effect Jan. 1, now lets the state contribute up to 80 percent of the price of a farmland preservation purchase. +Ms. Byers said this should encourage county Agricultural Development Boards 'to be more aggressive, to get out there and bang on the doors of the farm owners before the developers do.' +The 1986 amendment to the Farmland Assessment Act was sponsored by Assemblyman John T. Hendrickson Jr., Republican of Manahawkin. Its final regulations take effect Aug. 1, when owners of farmland-assessed woodlands, including full-time farmers and foresters, must present either forest-management plans, or proof that they are exempt from the amendment, to the state's Bureau of Forest Management. +Cranberry farmers are exempt, as are farmers whose wooded acres are equal to less than 50 percent of their crop or pasturelands and are already being professionally managed. +Such businesses as timbering companies and nurseries generally already operate with management plans, forestry officials said. +Walter Ellis, a crop farmer from Crosswicks and president of the New Jersey Farm Bureau, the state's farm lobby, said that, of the 7,600 or so farmers in the state, only 3,000 were professional full-time farmers earning $50,000 a year or more from farming alone. +Of these, he said, most own or lease nonwooded cropland or pasture land consisting of less than 50 percent woodlands, the threshold for being required to file woodland management plans under the Farmland Assessment Act amendment. Thus, only about 2 percent of the 3,000 farmers will have to come up with the plans, he said. +The new assessment amendment, Mr. Ellis said, is directed at the woodlands owned by the 4,600 other farmers. It is intended to determine whether these farmers are properly maintaining the lands if they have farmland assessment status. +'There's an awful lot of nonfarming ownership of farmlands in the state and a lot of farmers leasing land from these nonfarmers,' said Peter J. Furey, administrator of the Farm Bureau. +'There is no doubt that someone who grows holly or Christmas trees for a living is a farmer,' said Peter R. Probasco, the forestry agent for Salem County. 'But if you have 100 acres of woods and only sell a bit of firewood from it each year, that's a little questionable.' +Harris J. Adams, a spokesman for the state's Division of Taxation, said that before the amendment 'municipal tax officials could easily understand a farmland assessment if they saw corn coming up or apples growing, but they wondered about woods when there was virtually no activity on it at all for years.' +Under the 1964 law, Mr. Vodak said, a farmer was anyone who maintained some horticultural or agricultural land that produced an income of $500 a year for its first five acres and 50 cents a year for each additional acre. +The new regulations require that the wooded acreage be 'supportive of and subordinate to' the farmland. Otherwise, the rules say, the land must be managed as a 'renewable resource' in the same manner as a forestry business. This would include regeneration of trees and regular cutting and pruning. +Helen H. Hendrich of Madison, a landscape architect and geographer who coordinates the Farm Bureau's woodland management program, said that to qualify for farmland assessment a wooded parcel must now be 'part of a farm and enhance the productivity of the cropland or pastureland.' +Mr. Probasco said that landowners who had objected to the regulations were generally owners of 100 percent wooded parcels or those who lived on the wooded land. +'They felt that their woods were better left in the natural state,' he said. +If a full-time professional farmer has more than the allowable 50 percent in woodlands, Mr. Vodak said, the excess can still come under farmland assessment 'if it provides a buffer from a development zone, shade for animals that use the woods as a run or is used for public recreation or soil conservation.' +Mrs. Hendrich said there were 2,781 new or renewed applications for farmland assessments approved in 1986. They comprised 114,706 acres of 100 percent wooded parcels, she said. +However, she and Mr. Adams said they would not know how many of those acres would lose their farmland assessment, or what the accrued tax benefits would be to local governments, until after Oct. 31, when the Bureau of Forest Management would receive the management plans from landowners. +Mr. Vodak and others said it would be a year or two before the state could determine whether the intended results of the amendment -better woodland conservation and more-equitable taxation - had indeed taken place." +False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,"Corrections +Two picture credits in Circuits on Thursday, with an article about young computer entrepreneurs, were reversed.

He was 83. +The cause was heart failure, said a friend, Ilona Sommer. +Day in and day out, the man who was originally named Louis T. Hardin was as taciturn and unchanging a landmark of the midtown Manhattan streetscape as the George M. Cohan statue in Duffy Square. From the late 1940's until the early 1970's, Mr. Hardin stood at attention like a sentinel on Avenue of the Americas around 54th Street. +No matter the weather, he invariably dressed in a homemade robe, sandals, a flowing cape and a horned Viking helmet, the tangible expression of what he referred to as his 'Nordic philosophy.' At his side he clutched a long spear of his own manufacture. +Most of the passers-by who dismissed him as 'the Viking of Sixth Avenue,' offering him contributions and buying copies of his music and poetry, were unaware that he had recorded his music on the CBS, Prestige, Epic, Angel and Mars labels. Mr. Hardin's jazz-accented compositions, generally scored for small wind and percussion ensembles, often achieved a flowing, tonal symphonic style. +One of his songs, 'All Is Loneliness,' became a hit when recorded by Janis Joplin. He wrote music for radio and television commercials, and one of his compositions was used on the soundtrack for the 1972 movie 'Drive, He Said,' with Jack Nicholson. +Along the way, Mr. Hardin wrote Bohemian broadsides against government regimentation, the world monetary system and organized religion. He was celebrated by Beat Generation poets and late-1960's flower children. His passionate unconventionality drew praise from some critics and led to interviews on many television shows, including both 'Today' and 'The Tonight Show.' +Although many New Yorkers assumed that he had died after he vanished from his customary post in 1974, Mr. Hardin had actually been invited to perform his music in West Germany and decided to stay. +'He led an extraordinary life for a blind man who came to New York with no contacts and a month's rent, and who lived on the streets of New York for 30 years,' said Dr. Robert Scotto, a professor of English at Baruch College of the City University of New York. 'Without question, he was the most famous street person of his time, a hero to a generation of hippies and flower children.' Dr. Scotto has just completed a biography of Mr. Hardin, 'Moondog: The Viking of Sixth Avenue,' which has not been published. +After his performances in Hamburg, Mr. Hardin again earned a living as a street performer, this time in Europe. He soon met Mrs. Sommer, whose father insisted on taking him into their home and supported Mr. Hardin in his later years. He composed in Braille, and she transcribed his music and acted as his publisher and business manager. According to Dr. Scotto, they had an intimate working relationship, but neither of them ever described it as more than that. +In his later years, Mr. Hardin produced at least five albums in Europe, including a 'sound saga' titled 'The Creation,' and regularly performed his compositions with chamber and symphony orchestras before glittering audiences in Paris, Stockholm and cities in Germany. +Mr. Harding adopted the Moondog name in 1947, identifying himself, he said, with a former pet who howled at the moon. +He was born in Maryville, Kan., on May 26, 1916, the son of an Episcopal minister. He was blinded at the age of 16 when a dynamite blasting cap exploded in his hands. A year later, after studying stringed instruments, organ and harmony at the Iowa School for the Blind, he became obsessed with becoming a composer. +When he arrived in Manhattan in 1943, he established an outpost outside the stage entrance of Carnegie Hall and met some of the New York Philharmonic's musicians. They arranged a meeting with their conductor, Artur Rodzinski. Mr. Rodzinski was taken with Mr. Hardin and not only extended an open invitation to attend the orchestra's rehearsals, but also promised he would conduct an orchestral work if Mr. Hardin ever wrote one. +But because he was blind, he needed help in writing out the score. Mr. Hardin could not afford such assistance, so he made his living as a street musician, training himself to be a master of percussion improvisation. He was unable to compose a symphony until after Mr. Rodzinski left the Philharmonic in 1947. +In the mid-1950's, one of his 78-r.p.m. recordings, 'Moondog Symphony,' was regularly played by Alan Freed, the pioneering rock-and-roll disk jockey. But it wasn't until the 1960's that Mr. Hardin had regular access to an orchestra and was able to make his first longer album for CBS, 'Moondog.' +In 1989, Mr. Hardin, acclaimed in Europe, was invited back to the United States to conduct the Brooklyn Philharmonic Chamber Orchestra. +Allan Kozinn, a critic for The New York Times, described Mr. Hardin's conducting style as unusual, explaining that he was 'uncomfortable with being an authority figure, so he sits to the side of the orchestra and provides the beat on a bass drum or tympani.' +Dr. Scotto said that Mr. Hardin told him that he married in 1943 and subsequently divorced. A second marriage, to Sazuko Whiteing, a musician, in the 1950's, ended in divorce in the early 1960's, Dr. Scotto said. +Dr. Scotto and Mrs. Sommer said they thought Mr. Hardin was survived by a younger brother, Creighton Hardin, of Kansas City; a daughter, June Hardin, and another daughter, whose name and whereabouts they did not know. +In the end, Mr. Hardin finally yielded to Mrs. Sommer's coaxing and gave up his Viking outfits. He had refused to alter his dress code even when, as an aspiring composer, it provoked his eviction from the Philharmonic rehearsals. +'But I still love horned helmets and swords and spears,' he said in a 1989 interview. 'I like to feel that I'm loyal to my past. I wouldn't want to be on the street anymore. But you know, that led to a lot of things.'" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Nuclear Plants' Files Overwhelm Library +LEAD: WHEN the Waterford Public Library agreed to be the repository of documents for the Millstone I nuclear energy plant 18 years ago, it was a matter of storing just a few file boxes in a closet.

But with the torrent of paper that followed stricter Government regulations and the construction of two more nuclear plants on the Millstone site, the documents, which also include a microfiche collection and a reading machine, now fill 50 shelves in the library. And the library is saying, Enough! +New information is constantly arriving at a rate of thousands of pages a month - enough paper each year to create a stack 10 to 15 feet high. +The data is so extensive it has been divided into 25 categories, from A (application and construction stage documentation) to Y (analyses of dry-cask independent spent-fuel storage). Some of the information is contained in green plastic binders, but most is loose or simply stapled together and put into folders. +It is also one of the least-used collections in the library. The most recent quarterly report filed with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission said that the collection in Waterford had been consulted just once from April through June. More Than Most Can Deal With +'It's almost like the Nuclear Regulatory Commission has given the public too much,' said the library's director, Vincent Juliano. 'The information, the detail and the way it is presented is more than most people can deal with.' +It is more than the library can deal with, as well. The board of directors has asked the commission to clear out its collection. Wednesday is the deadline for other libraries or institutions willing to store it to make an offer. +The chairman of the board of directors, Bonnie Allison, said that while the board has asked the materials to be moved, 'we're not going to throw it out until they do.' The relationship has always been good between the library and the commission, Mrs. Allison said, and the library is not about to ruin it by demanding the space back on short notice. +But a commission official said a lengthy search has yet to yield any interest in the public document room. +'We've called just about every library in the area, and so far no one has agreed to provide the space,' said Karl Abraham, a spokesman for the commission in King of Prussia, Pa. 'So at this point, I don't know how it's going to end up.' No Interest From Neighbors +E. Clifford Hill, a spokesman for Northeast Utilities, which owns and operates the three plants in Waterford, said that when the library was running out of space years ago, before the mezzanine where the files are now kept was constructed, the utility suggested the files be kept at the Coast Guard Academy or at Connecticut College in neighboring New London, but neither was interested. +'The whole purpose of the Public Document Room is to house all the correspondence between us and the N.R.C. and make it available to the general public,' Mr. Hill said. 'The closer it is, obviously, the more easily accessible it is to the public.' +One of the few institutions interested in housing the collection is the Russell Library in Middletown, repository of the public documents for Northeast's other nuclear plant, Connecticut Yankee in Haddam Neck. +'It just happens their need comes at a time when we're considering rearranging and reorganizing the space within our building,' the director of the Russell Library, Stuart T. Porter Jr., said. 'We think we're going to be able to do it.' +With Wesleyan University nearby, there has been some interest in the information in the collection. But even Mr. Porter acknowledges that his Public Document Room is not one of the key attractions of the library. Not Heavily Used +'It's not what we would call heavily used, compared with any of the other services and collections we have,' Mr. Porter said. 'It's probably used a couple of times a week.' +Public document rooms are a collection of general nuclear regulatory publications and all correspondence between the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the operator of a nuclear plant, including safety reports, explanation of shutdowns and equipment malfunctions and other documentation. +While it does not have to be in a library, the commission specifies it must be in an institution with a history of impartially serving the information needs of the public, and within 50 miles of the plant. +Mr. Abraham said his agency generally does not ask the operator of the plant to be a repository of public documents because years ago, under such an arrangement, the collection was poorly maintained. There is also the possibility of public perception that an operator might withhold or conceal documents that cast its operation in a bad light, Mr. Abraham said. +'We don't believe for a minute Northeast Utilities would take unfair advantage,' Mr. Abraham said, but to avoid that perception, such an arrangement would not be approved. Expanding Millstone +When the Waterford library agreed to host the public document room, there were only a few file boxes that had to be kept in the basement, but at that point only Millstone I, a 660-megawatt plant that began commercial operation in 1970, was in existance. Millstone II, an 870-megawatt power plant, began operation in 1975, and Millstone III, a 1,150-megawatt plant, began operation in 1986. +As the larger plants have come into operation, and as accidents like the one at Three-Mile Island in Pennsylvania have heightened concern about safe operation of nuclear plants, there has been an increasing amount of documentation filed in the rooms. +Originally, Mr. Juliano said, the collection was housed in a large closet, but it outgrew that space and had to be moved to the basement. When it became too large for those quarters, it was moved into a newly constructed mezzanine. Today, it takes up about 150 feet of shelf space. +Generally, the library receives enough documentation over the course of a year to fill four or five shelves, and it takes a member of the staff three to four hours a week to maintain the collection, Mr. Juliano said. +'About 1980 they said they were going to convert their records to microfiche, and that sounded real good, except it never happened,' he said. +The library receives about $6,000 a year from the commission to house and maintain the collection but, Mr. Juliano said, there are other considerations. +'It's never been a money issue for us,' he said. 'For many years the library did it for nothing.' +'If the collection had remained stable, we probably would be able to keep it here,' he said. 'But it's growing, and we don't want to give them the false impression that we can do this forever.' +If any other collection of the library logged the use that the public document room sees, he said, it would also be replaced. While one person in three months is low, Mr. Juliano said over the 10 years he has worked in the library the average use has been about one person per month. +'The record of operation here is probably a factor in that, because they do have a pretty good reputation for safety,' Mr. Juliano said. +But part of the problem is also that the collection is so daunting. Each month hundreds of pages of documents, some of them so technical only engineers could decipher them, arrive for the collection. +'People don't want all this information,' Mr. Juliano said. 'What they want is simple information on a few specific items.'" +False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,"PLAYING IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD +LOWER EAST SIDE Something for Everyone At an Expanded Festival +From noon to 5 today, Grand Street and Essex Street will be a place for entertainment, falafel and awards to current and former neighborhood residents at the Lower East Side Festival. +The event, this year called ""Gateway to the American Dream,"" is an expansion of what was long known as the Lower East Side Jewish Festival, now expanded to include many other groups. +This year the festival, sponsored by the South Manhattan Development Corporation, will cover six blocks.

The theory of momentum can be explored through rides on a standing spinner, or the effects of action and reaction experienced on a giant spider web. The nature of balance can be negotiated on the wobbly bridge (shown at left), and water moved uphill (with a 13-foot Archimedes screw). +Science Playground, New York Hall of Science, 47-01 111th Street, Flushing Meadows Corona Park; Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday 9:30 A.M. to 2 P.M., Thursday through Sunday 9:30 A.M. to 5 P.M.

'Raksha's Child,' now playing at the Henry Street Settlement, is a musical adaptation of the section of the tale dealing with the child's dawning realization that he is human, and not a wolf. +More than 30 children between 10 and 20, most of them in high school, are in this Urban Youth Theater production. The show has a strong emphasis on martial arts, and the director says the style is kung fu extravaganza. One cast member, Luis Quintero, is pictured below. +'Rashka's Child,' Abrons Arts Center, Henry Street Settlement, 466 Grand Street, at Pitt Street; today, 2 P.M., Thursday and Friday , 7 P.M., Saturday 2 and 7 P.M., Sunday, 2 P.M.; adults $6, children $4; (212) 598-0400. +ALSO AROUND TOWN +ALL ABOUT ROSES +Over lunch you can learn about the finer details of rose history and literature from an expert, Dr. Ed Fiorelli; Staten Island Institute of Arts and Sciences; Wednesday 1:30 P.M.; 75 Stuyvesant Place, at Wall Street, St. George; $15 for members, $20 for nonmembers, without lunch $5 for members, $10 for nonmembers; advance registration required; (718) 727-1135, ext. 15. +OUTDOOR JAZZ +In the series of Centennial Garden Parties for New York City's 100th birthday, the New York Botanical Garden is the site of a free outdoor jazz concert featuring the Bronx Arts Ensemble today at 3 P.M.

Severe debt had saddled St. Anthony, and each year since 1991, the school has had to raise at least $500,000 on its own to keep up operations because its parish has declared it an independent school that it will no longer finance. +Yet every year, Bob Hurley returns to St. Anthony for a few thousand dollars, and coaches boys out of poverty and into the spotlight. Mr. Wojnarowski's new book, 'The Miracle of St. Anthony' (Gotham), chronicles a couple dozen of Mr. Hurley's on-court victories but, more important, some of the many off-court victories he has had with students and athletes at the inner-city school. +While the St. Anthony team won the New Jersey state championship the year Mr. Wojnarowski, a sportswriter for The Record in Hackensack, followed it, the story he wishes to impart is less basketball than real life. The book plows much of the ground broken by 'Hoop Dreams' and 'Friday Night Lights,' but Mr. Wojnarowski handles the material deftly. +Mr. Hurley's 800-plus basketball victories, the five first-round N.B.A. picks he has coached and the eight state championships he has won are important facets of the book. It probably would not have been written if Mr. Hurley were a good person and a mediocre coach. So it is all the more inspiring to see Mr. Hurley also goad his players to academic and social success. +That Mr. Hurley himself has stayed put in Jersey City is also instructive. He has had enough success and publicity to have moved up to more lucrative coaching jobs, but has clearly found it more satisfying to keep his fame circumscribed to his chosen realm. This seems to be Mr. Wojnarowski's only lament, that Mr. Hurley's miracles should be replicated elsewhere, but aren't. +Robert Strauss +BY THE WAY" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"JERSEY FOOTLIGHTS +Money for the Arts +The Geraldine R.

The awards benefit groups in 20 of the state's 21 counties. +The foundation, which is based in Morristown, has been giving money to the arts since the 1970's. +Ten organizations are receiving awards for the first time: Algonquin Arts in Manasquan; Friends of Cape May Jazz and the Center for Community Arts, both in Cape May; the Theater Project at Union County College in Cranford; Westfield Young Artists Cooperative Theater; the New Jersey programs of New York City's Meet the Composer; Trenton Downtown Association; and three dance companies, Connections Dance Theater in Lawrenceville, LKB Dance in New Brunswick and Terra Firma Dance Theater in Highland Park. +As part of a $1 million grant announced last year, the Shakespeare Theater of New Jersey received $350,000, the foundation's largest arts grant for 2003. +Under the Sea +Using an underwater metal detector, Nelson Jecas of Bernardsville has been diving for lost treasure off the Jersey shore for 12 years. He uses historical data on hurricanes and shipwrecks to improve his chances of making discoveries and then has experts evaluate his findings. +Mr. Jecas began treasure hunting on land -- at dumps, on beaches and behind old houses. 'In the old days, people used to bury their garbage in their backyards,' he explained. +He has found buried silverware, medicine bottles and stamp seals. Since he took to the water, he has found 17th-century coins from Spain, a 13th-century bronze cross from Africa and an 18th-century Spanish bracelet, among other items. +A selection from Mr. Jecas's trove can be seen at the Morristown and Morris Township Library, One Miller Road in Morristown, through Sept. 5.

'It's held in the late spring, which means it's 140 degrees. It just came to me that this is not my idea of a good time.' +The new song was 'Jews Don't Camp.' +'A lot of people come up to me and say, 'I'm Jewish and I camp,'' Mr. Buskin said.

Through Sept. 27. 323-2480. +Spanning the two decades after World War II, this collection of abstract prints is a selective but highly rewarding survey of the technical and esthetic experimentation that transformed the graphic arts during that period. In fact, as a microcosm of the era's diverse approaches to printmaking, it could hardly be bettered. +The prints belong to Charles Dean, who has homes in Orient and New York City. Without aiming for comprehensiveness, Mr. Dean has assembled a collection notable for its range and depth. It includes examples by well-known printmakers like Gabor Peterdi, Peter Grippe and Stanley William Hayter, whose Atelier 17 was a hotbed of graphic innovation in the 1940's, and pieces by artists better known as painters or sculptors, among them Franz Kline, Louise Nevelson, Grace Hartigan, Adja Yunkers and Hans Hofmann. +The selection of 36 prints also features fine examples by relatively obscure artists who pushed printmaking's traditional boundaries to their limits and beyond. Bernard Childs used power tools to attack the surface of intaglio plates, creating a spidery calligraphy that fairly sizzles with energy. Boris Margo invented a method of dissolving imagery into a celluloid matrix to produce otherworldly forms. +Abstract Expressionism's spontaneous gestures and emotional content are translated into graphic terms by Jacob Kainen, Dennis Beall, Walt Kuhlman and Hugh Mesibov, who adapted various print media to achieve unorthodox results. Mr. Beall's richly textured lithographs and Mr. Kuhlman's mysterious, atmospheric etching are outstanding examples, but the show is filled with many more such surprises and delights. +'Color Light' Yellow House Works of Art, 422 First Street, Greenport. Through Sept. 20. 477-8673. +This show by three artists is dominated -- or, forgive the pun, stolen -- by Russell Connor's large canvas 'The Kidnapping of Modern Art by the New Yorkers,' an art-historical pastiche uniting Rubens and Picasso to lampoon the notion that New York stole modernism from Europe. +To appreciate the humor fully, one must know something of its references: the Rubens abduction of virtuous maidens, Picasso's less-than-virtuous demoiselles going along for the ride, and the title freely adapted from Serge Guilbaut's screed against America's Cold War hegemony. +Indeed, all the paintings from Mr. Connor's 'Masters in Pieces' series depend on familiarity with their sources, as well as a hearty sense of irreverence. Thus, the pictures will amuse some and confuse others. As art-world inside jokes, they are sometimes strainedoverly contrived, but their unashamed borrowing points up the fact that most artists rely on the work of predecessors for inspiration. +Victor Freidman pays a more oblique homage to Cubism in his photographic montages, in which geometric structure plays off against the organic forms of fruit and human bodies. The prints are shown without glass over them, allowing their velvety texture and soft sepia tonality to be fully appreciated. +el2 The multiple complex layering in Nicke Gorney's abstract paintings evokes a sense of light and atmosphere divorced from specific observations but based on sensual experience. 'Afterlife,' for example, suggests the aura of a dawn-drenched landscape, while 'Encounter' pits red against yellow to produce vivid sparks of the orange that results from their meeting. +'Footfalls' +Various locations in Greenport. Through Sept. 28. 477-1572. +Fifteen artists are participating in this year's installation of site-specific works in various media, from sculpture to Conceptual art. Viewers may encounter the pieces at random, purchase an illustrated guide book and follow its map, or preview the ensemble by visiting the project's web site at http://www. peconic.net/footfalls. +Actually, the documentation is a bit misleading, as some of the works have been moved or changed since they were installed in June. Vandalism and the elements have taken their toll, notably on Melissa Kretschmer's pebble carpet at the end of Clark Street, which has been more or less obliterated by the tides, and Patricia Breese's driftwood carving, no longer on the Bay Street pier, for which another piece in the window of Preston's store on Main Street has been substituted. +Next door, at Preston's Marine Hardware, Maren Hassinger's 'walking' bundles of spiky unwound cable are poised like a phalanx of defenders. At once graceful and threatening, they are echoed by a group of bristling marchers in the window of Main Street Antiques. At the entrance to a nearby dock, Nina Yankowitz has half-buried a dory, provocatively suggesting a memorial to shipwreck victims and the decline of the fishing industry. +At several locations, Frazer Dougherty uses computer-generated overlays to critique Greenport's changing townscape. His laminated 'Paintings as Transformation' reconfigure spaces and buildings in light of their previous and current status, focusing attention by means of electronically created structures that conceptually fill the gaps between past, present and future. +Using the shore near the North Ferry terminal as an anchor, Kes Zapkus has constructed a delicate web of bamboo that gracefully floats above the beach at the waterline. The best view is from the ferry itself, which also offers an ideal vantage point for Mark Hadjipateras's cartoonlike 'Steamboats,' Plexiglas panels with whimsical silhouettes of puffing vessels, and Alan Shields's elaborate construction of multicolored beads that rises like a fountain of color from Mitchell's Dock. +ART REVIEWS" +False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Nails That Hold a House Together +EXPERTS on building estimate that the average house has 20,000 to 30,000 nails. +The modern wire nail was first manufactured in this country in Covington, Ky., in 1875.

The basic stock is a long coil of mild steel. The wire passes through straightening dies into gripping dies. The gripping dies hold the wire, while the heading tool delivers a blow that fashions the head. Cutting dies come forward to cut the nail and fashion the point. The machines can forge 150 to 500 nails a minute. +Modern nails are designated according to the penny system, which originated in England, where nails were sold by weight. Obviously the larger heavier nails cost more and, therefore, had a higher penny designation. The abbreviation for penny was, and still is, ""d,"" from the first letter of the Roman coin denarius. Thus a tenpenny nail was designated 10d. +Prices may have changed, but that is still how nails are graded. Nails range in length from 2d, or 1 inch, to 60d, or 6 inches. To calculate the length to 10d, divide the penny size by 4 1/2 inches. An 8d is 2 1/2. Nails above 10d are on the chart. The longer nails are also thicker. The diameter is designated by a wire-gauge number. The higher the number the thinner the diameter. +There are many types of nails. No one is ideal for all purposes. When choosing a nail for a specific job evaluate all the qualities. Consider holding power. That is a nail's resistance to being pulled out of a block of wood, or withdrawal resistance, and resistance to lateral pressure. Long thick nails have greater holding power than short thin nails. But they also split the wood more readily than the thinner nails. +To increase the holding power of thinner nails, manufacturers frequently deform the shank by stamping or cutting it with a ringed pattern. Called ""ring-shank"" nails, they have superior holding power, because the shank rings give the wood fibers a rougher surface to grip. The nails were originally developed for drywall and flooring, but they can be used anywhere. Ringed nails are also available for siding, shingles and corrugated fiberglass panels. +Another innovation that increases holding power is a resin coating on the shank. As the nail is driven into the wood, friction melts the resin, cementing the nail in place. The initial holding power is strong. But with time the resin is absorbed in the wood, and the holding power decreases. +Although there are many types of nails, the most frequently used are common, box, finishing, stage, masonry, flooring and siding. Common nails have a broad flat head, for rough carpentry and construction. Box nails look like common nails, but they have thinner shanks. They are easier to drive than common nails and are less likely to split the wood. Their holding power is less than that of the common nail. +Finishing nails are used for cabinetry and molding. Because those nails have small heads they can be driven below the surface with a nail set. The hole can be filled and hidden with wood filler. Smaller finishing nails are called brads. They are specified by length, from 1/2 to 1 1/2 inches, and wire gauge. Brads with flat heads are called wire nails. +Stage nails are also called duplex nails, scaffold nails and double-headed nails. They have two heads, although technically the second head is really a flange. Those are used to build temporary structures like scaffolds and support braces. +Masonry nails are made of hardened steel. They secure furring strips or studs to concrete or block walls. Do not try to drive those nails with a carpenter's hammer. Use a heavy-duty hammer, from 2 to 3 pounds, and be sure to wear gloves and safety goggles. +Flooring nails are used to place strip flooring. There are two types.One is the cut nail with a flat rectangular body. They are often stacked in hammer-powered machines to bind nail flooring through the edges. Spiral flooring nails have twisted shanks, so that they turn in the wood like screws. They have superior holding power and are less likely to split the wood than the cut flooring nails. +Aluminum siding has be secured with aluminum nails to prevent the corrosion that can occur between dissimilar metals. Aluminum nails can also be used to mount vinyl siding. +HOME CLINIC" +False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Quotation of the Day +LEAD: 'This is Beirut on the Potomac; there are more warring factions than I can count.

Kriegsmann, a celebrity portraitist who flourished in Manhattan after World War II. As images of show-biz personalities, the pictures should by rights be at the Paramount Theater, also known as the Paramount Center for the Arts, in Peekskill. But the attraction there is 'Humans Being,' a show by 15 former students of the photographer Andrew Courtney, whose subjects are the nameless and, in some cases, the homeless. +Kriegsmann was 20 when he left his native Austria for the United States, arriving in Manhattan shortly before the Crash. In addition to his father, brother and two sisters, the young man brought experience gained as an apprentice to the trade, which enabled him to get a job retouching pictures (mostly of burlesque beauties) for Strand Studios. +According to a profile written by Janis Bultman for a 1984 issue of 'Darkroom Photography,' the first break came when the Flying Wallendas, the trapeze artists famed for working without a net, visited the studio only to be photographed by Kriegsmann because he was the only employee able to speak with them in their own language. +Ms. Bultman said the experience of meeting them so impressed the photographer that he seriously considered joining the circus himself. Yet there is nothing romantic about his portrait of the group unless it is the emphasis on their gypsy-style bandanas, which seem so at odds with their chiseled features and stern expressions. +More craftsman than artist, Kriegsmann understood his clients' need for perfection and fulfilled it with zeal -- usually by means of lighting rather than the retoucher's scalpel and airbrush. It is possible he had the immigrant's reverence for the American band-box look or a personal desire to improve upon it, for Ms. Bultman quotes him as saying, 'Every nose has to have a bridge,' an idea that might intrigue Jack Palance, who has done so well without one. +Other stars in the lineup include Bill (Bojangles) Robinson on stage, Frank Sinatra at the piano with Nancy on his knee, Sid Caesar mugging and, in repose, Benny Goodman and Ray Charles with their instruments, Martha Raye, Doris Day, Milton Berle -- all of them caught in or before their prime. +By calling Kriegsmann the 'photographer of the rich and famous,' Ms. Bultman reminds me of his older compatriot, Trude Fleischmann, who was known in her country as 'the photographer of the famous.' He died in 1994, she a few years earlier; his portraits, a few of which are grotesquely colored, celebrate the American Dream, whereas her softer-focus images of people and places imply a taste for the finer things of life. +Fleischmann spent a few years in the United States, where her reputation has recently been rediscovered by art galleries and auction houses, but her style, already formed, was not much affected by the experience. Kriegsmann, on the other hand, lived his whole life here and, having arrived young and impressionable, became an all-American photographer. Though not camp, his pictures are dated enough to arouse nostalgia for a supposedly happier time, and as such are of anthropological interest. +Mr. Courtenay makes no bones about it: the Paramount show is as much his as it is his students'. A teacher for 35 years, he begins his introduction to 'Humans Being' by saying that the participants, who range in age from 18 to 60, were chosen because they share the 'enthusiasm that making photography brings to an active life' and a 'fascination with the human condition' as well as a 'comfort with the camera as a tool for making art.' Then, after stating, 'All will remember the mantra of my teaching maxims,' Mr. Courtenay lists a few examples, including 'Art, self-promotion: two different things,' 'If it's pretty it can't be art' and 'Art is the making of a new idea.' +The photographer has taught at various institutions in Westchester, most recently at the Evening Star Photography Workshop in Peekskill. He has also traveled extensively, and as he explained during a conversation at the gallery it was visiting other countries, notably Nicaragua, that prompted him to change his vocation from painting to photography. 'Sandinista Pieta,' a study of an emaciated Nicaraguan woman seated in a shadowy interior, is one of his earliest efforts. +The students may be imprinted by the master's maxims, but most have their own clearly defined styles. For example, David Leviatin is a rather literal-minded Social Realist who portrays Chinese men ' holding things,' the most interesting of which is a live pig on its back. Kev Filmore is more the Surrealist with his series of tinted black-and-whites, each of which focuses on ground covered with leaves and stones and accented by discarded objects -- a child's bootie, a rear-view mirror, a shoe sole lying beside the paws of a woolly dog. The prints are accompanied by a plastic bag containing the leaves and objects (but not the dog). +Gayle Lamb's images are organic abstractions not unlike the sculptures of Louise Bourgeois but eventually reveal themselves as ingenious compositions involving the photographer's own torso and limbs. Thanks to Disneyfication and Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani, Times Square is not what it was, but Nancy Siesel photographs it as others might still walk through it -- hurriedly. In her small, blurred prints, cars go down the avenues, a flatbed loaded with newsprint heads for The Times, a man gets a shoeshine, a few characters act colorful on the sidewalk, and the atmosphere continues to be dreary. +Outstanding black and whites include Eric Nevins's study of a 1950's pickup with a flat, which stands in a cluttered shed like a cow waiting to be milked; the most memorable shots in the small color division are both by Alan Hayward. +One is an almost monochromatic scene of two bathers who are small black silhouettes standing in a pool which, corrugated with ripples, lies beyond the larger silhouette of a fir tree. The second is strangely similar in that it depicts the shadow of a seated man cast by the sun on a screen of corrugated material, which is both green and translucent. +Now part of the Hebrew Home's permanent collection, the Kriegsmann photographs remain on view through July 14.

The group was formed last spring to raise awareness in the community of the problems faced by the county's homeless and to find ways to address them. Mrs. Wiener said that Kay Frank, a member of the group, had mentioned the need for the supplies during the group's July meeting at the Rye Presbyterian Church. +'I see homeless children two or three times a week, and school supplies are not even a dream,' said Mrs. Frank, who works with them and their parents in her job as education director for the Student Advocacy Coalition 'The kids just don't think about them.' She said the free supplies were necessary because 'budgets based on public assistance or those of the very low-income, working poor don't include a five-subject spiral notebook and the pens we all take for granted.' +Mrs. Wiener said the supplies and ways to package and distribute them had been discussed further at a planning luncheon last month. That meeting, held at Christ Church in Rye, included several participants in the interfaith group: Joel Levy, an assistant commissioner in charge of housing for the county's Social Services Department; Hamilton Fish 3d (a Helping Hands volunteer who had contacted Staples and was representing the store); and two members of the Council of Educators for the Homeless, Dr. Susan Merritt (the chairwoman) and Dr. Joseph Fahey. +Dr. Fahey, a professor of religious studies at Manhattan College in Riverdale, said after the meeting that he and Dr. Merritt had talked with teachers and students from several school districts 'about the kinds of school materials that would be most helpful to the kids.' +John Conway, the general manager of the Port Chester branch of Staples - whose headquarters is in Brighton, Mass. - said the company was 'more than happy to participate in the project' and had donated to each school kit two notebooks, a ruler, some pens and pencils. The Port Chester branch opened in June. In addition, each kit contained a quarter for a phone call, the result of a $200 contribution from Caldor Incorporated in Port Chester. +The kits were put together at the Rye Library, which made space available for the project, with the help of Rye volunteers (many of them children), members of the interfaith group and others who helped plan the project. +Mr. Levy said the kits were distributed last week to the homeless children by various agencies, volunteer organizations and case workers in the Social Services Department's eight distict offices. Calling the cooperative project 'highly commendable,' he said it was an example of the type of grass-roots effort by the public that had been called for during a conference last fall on the homeless, which was co-sponsored by his office and 10 other county-based organizations. +He said he thought the children would be 'pleasantly surprised' by the gifts of school supplies. 'It is something nice for these kids, who are already encountering so many difficulties by virtue of the fact they're homeless,' he said. +Mr. Fish, who recently moved to New Rochelle and is the former publisher of The Nation magazine, said he hoped other companies 'would take this as a model of how they could join together with citizens and the county to address some of the problems in Westchester.' +Many of the youngsters who packed the school kits said they were glad to have an opportunity to do something that could help other children." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,"Nursery Plan or Sand Mining? +FOR perhaps as long as 21,000 years, a kame formed by a retreating glacier has risen from an area now in the pine barrens preserve in Manorville. Now a plan by the operator of a tree farm to level the hill to expand a nursery may erase it in fewer than five years. +Opponents say the operator's real purpose is lucrative sand mining, not business expansion. The operator, Joseph Marando Nurseries Inc., denies that. +Opponents say the one million cubic yards of sand and gravel that could be excavated was worth millions of dollars. +The proposal has divided the five voting members of the Long Island Pine Barrens Commission, which was created by the state in 1995 to protect the 100,000-acre area. +The proposal has also prompted a suit by the Long Island Pine Barrens Society to block the project. +The nursery plan is providing a major test of how the commission will carry out its stewardship over the pines and the ground water in the region, an effort supported by tens of millions of dollars in public spending. +On Aug. 26, in a 3-to-2 vote, three commissioners -- Town Supervisors Vincent J. Cannuscio of Southampton, Felix J. Grucci Jr. of Brookhaven and James R. Stark of Riverhead -- voted without comment to allow the nursery to excavate the kame and sell the sand and gravel. +The vote reinforced a conditional approval from the Town of Brookhaven, which has jurisdiction over the site, and gave the first example of how the supervisors might vote in cases where the commission could overrule the towns. +Representatives for the state and Suffolk County, the two other voting commissioners, cited the extent of clearing and possible effects on water because of nitrogen and other chemicals that would be applied in the area. +The two dissenters, Ray E. Cowen, regional director for the State Environmental Conservation Department, and George Proios, assistant county executive for environmental affairs, said they believed that the supervisors might have violated the law covering the pine barrens. +This is the first time that the commission has reviewed a project that a town had approved. That made the vote even more significant because of home-rule issues. +The excavation needs final approval from the environmental department, a process that Mr. Cowen said would involve 'a totally different set of criteria, rules and standards.' The department, he added, would not revisit the issues that the commission had voted on. +State standards emphasize the reclamation of sand-mining sites. Because the nursery would involve leveling instead of excavating, meeting the standards may be simplified. +The mining, the commission decided, was secondary to expanding the 62-acre nursery to an adjoining 38 acres. +Under the plan, Marando would clear 24.7 acres of all trees and vegetation. Approximately one million cubic yards of material would be removed. +The Long Island Pine Barrens Society, which was instrumental in the passage of the pine barrens law, sued the Brookhaven Planning Board in July. The group said the proposal was 'fraudulently clothed as a request for the expansion of a nursery' but was 'actually an application for a sand-mining operation which will operate in a residential area for a minimum of four and a half years.' +The suit added that such an operation violated town laws that prohibited sand mining in residential areas. +The executive director of the society, Richard L. Amper Jr., said the group would also sue the commission, in an effort to overturn the panel's vote. +Mr. Amper said the nursery's intention to mine became obvious after it rejected an alternative proposal from the County Planning Department to terrace rather than remove the material. 'There is no reason to remove the hill except for sand mining,' Mr. Amper said. +Marando told the commission that the terracing would be unworkable. +Large quantities of sand are used in manufacturing cement, filling operations, maintaining roads in the winter and in projects in eroded oceanfront areas like West Hampton Dunes. +Sand runs about $6 a year wholesale, according to an expert in the environmental department, Robert P. Galli. Gravel, which is found in excavated sand, sells at $15 to $20 a cubic yard wholesale, he added. +Mr. Galli said Long Island had 50 active sand mines, mostly in Brookhaven, East Hampton and Southampton, with smaller operations in Smithtown and Riverhead. +Mr. Cannuscio said the expansion was permissible under the law. 'Candidly,' he said, 'I know some sand will be removed. But I have traveled that road for 15 years. I see the adjacent area, and it is obviously, patently, a nursery operation.' +Mr. Grucci, Mr. Stark and a lawyer for the nursery, Walter M. Conlon, did not answer calls for comment. +Mr. Amper said it appeared that the three supervisors might have 'worked out a private collective strategy' for the vote. +Mr. Cannuscio denied that the officials had had private discussions and accused Mr. Amper of 'making a career out of opposing everything.' +Mr. Grucci was involved last year in a dispute involving sand excavation. A political opponent contended that Mr. Grucci was operating an illegal sand mine on property owned by the Grucci fireworks business in Brookhaven. +The opponent, Thomas H. Oberle, Democratic candidate for supervisor, said the mining was conducted under the guise of a business expansion. +Mr. Grucci, a Republican, sued Mr. Oberle after the election for libel. Mr. Grucci acknowledged selling sand, but said that the excavation was necessary to expand the fireworks business and that the town had approved it. +The nursery is on Route 111, south of Exit 70 on the Long Island Expressway, in a so-called deep-water-recharge area, where rain and surface water replenishes ground water. Such areas are particularly vulnerable to contaminants. +The 100,000-acre preserve includes a 52,700-acre core where development is to be banned or strictly limited and a surrounding 'compatible growth' area, where controlled development is allowed. The nursery is in that area. +Mr. Cannuscio said the nursery plan met standards that allow the clearing of 65 percent of a site. Mr. Cowen and Mr. Proios said the standard should be applied to the entire nursery property of 100 acres. They said the expansion would not meet the standard, because more than 65 percent of the entire site would be cleared. +Mr. Proios said the quantities of nitrogen that experts estimated to reach ground water would meet state levels but was too high to meet more stringent standards in the preserve. +He said clearing vegetation and leveling the kame, 'a unique geologic feature,' also led him to vote against the project. 'The County Planning Department showed they could expand the same dimensions and kept the vegetation and the hill in place,' he said. +Dr. Les Sirkin, a research professor of geology at Adelphi University, also referred to the kame as a singular geological feature in an affidavit against the Brookhaven Planning Board. +'Although there are a number of kames remaining on Long Island,' Dr. Sirkin wrote, 'few have survived from glacial times to the present in a seemingly unscathed condition, unmined, not developed or clear cut or even settled by native Americans.' +Under the law, the commission does not usually review proposals for the compatible-growth area that the towns have approved. But when questions arise about compliance with the law, a majority vote of the commission can call up a proposal for review. +A permit from the commission is required for a proposal to proceed. +The commission automatically reviews proposals in the core area." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"A Fair That Offers Unexpected Items +WHAT better time for a voyage of discovery into the world of crafts than Columbus Day weekend? Both first-time visitors and never-miss-a-show collectors can expect to find the unexpected at the 16th annual Morristown Craft Market. There will be new trends, new materials, new techniques and many crafts people who have never before shown their work at the fair. +During three days next weekend, about 15,000 people are expected to visit the 150 booths at the fair, at the National Guard Armory. Nine artists are from New Jersey, the others from around the country. +A jury of six crafts people and a gallery owner selected the participants after studying slides of their work. Jewelry and wearable fiber art predominate. Prices range from under $10 toys to jewelry with precious stones that costs in the thousands. +The artists come from varied backgrounds. Bud Nealy, a Pennsylvanian, is both a knifemaker and a drummer who has performed for 35 years in Broadway shows. His knife-making career began 12 years ago when he saw a friend's collection of custom-made knives. ""They really blew me away,"" he said. +Equipped with a book titled ""How to Make a Knife"" and a cut-up sawmill blade, he began the laborious processes of hammering and grinding metal into razor-sharp blades. He adds intricately ornamented handles with historic motifs. One knife, titled ""Viking Dagger,"" has an ivory handle cut from an ancient tusk. +These knives can be used for hunting, fishing or food preparation. Prices range from $150 to $3,000 for knives of Damascus steel with golden handles set with jewels. +Although John Flemming, a Louisiana artist, makes belts and handbags of Italian leather, he dreamed of becoming a sculptor. His solution: sculptured leather masks. +One series of these masks depicts the energy and motion of heavy windstorms. Several years ago, while he was doing work for fashion shows in the south of France, a mistral hit. ""People just go off center in those winds,"" he said. ""I wanted leather to express that heat and energy."" +His ""Sirocco"" mask has twisted strands of leather in glowing hues of yellow and orange, touched with blue and green. The wearer's head appears to be aflame. The masks are all wearable (some are seen at carnival time in New Orleans), or they can be mounted on the wall as sculptures. Prices are $175 to $4,000. +Marjorie Simon of Highland Park is exploring the duality of male and female symbols in her jewelry. Her concept is almost primeval. ""My beads are androgynous, the male and female together,"" she said. The necklaces and bracelets are sterling silver with 22-karat gold-plated brass. Her prices are $100 to $800. +Amy Roper of Summit, a jewelry maker, is also intrigued with primitive objects. ""Blades and shields fascinate me,"" she said. In ""Eldorado Brooch,"" she abstracted these forms and overlaid them with cryptic markings. ""I use my personal vocabulary of patterns and markings to evoke the spirit of a ritual amulet or talisman."" +Gold and silver are combined with nonprecious materials like bone to form contrasts of color and texture. Prices are $40 to $2,000 for one-of-a-kind pieces with gold and semiprecious stones. +Bob McNally of Hibernia will show the ""Strumsticks"" he invented for people who want to become instant musicians. These 29-inch-long instruments have only three strings, arranged so that ""it is impossible to play wrong notes or chords,"" he said. For his latest version, he added an electric pickup to give sound effects that can range from New Age to heavy metal. Strumsticks, made of various hardwoods with brass trimmings, cost $98. +There will be items to appeal to the child in everyone. Gloria Orzechowski of Middlesex makes bright wooden puzzles with large interlocking pieces. When everything is in place, they form toys. Her Noah's ark has 16 pieces. ""Twelve are cats hanging on and trying to get in,"" she said. ""They are definitely individuals, not pairs."" Prices are $8 to $32. +While the figures by Constance Harper, a Michigan artist, might be called dolls, they are made to hang on the wall, not cuddle in bed. Some have doors in their torsos. When one is opened, a garden interior filled with tiny carved wooden animals is revealed. Other figures have drawers in their stomachs that contain poems. Her prices go from $500 to $2,800. +Dolls made by Wendy Ellertson may appeal to those who enjoy reading to children. She calls these figures ""Legend Tellers."" Some hold handmade books, blank inside so families can write in their own stories. ""We should all become legend tellers,"" she said. This Massachusetts artist visits schools with her dolls, which inspire students to write about their lives. Prices are $95 to $800. +Of course, there will be carefully made traditional items at the fair. Michael Feno of Towaco, who shares the technical direction of the show with his wife, Barbara, will display his new porcelain plaques with abstract designs. His color choices show the influence of the Southwest -- turquoise, pink and tan. +There will be several quilters whose works are like ""paintings in cloth,"" Mr. Feno said. Handwoven fabrics have been shaped into high-fashion and classical styles. And a New Jerseyan, Steven Levine of Dayton, will show a coffee table covered with dyed veneers in intense oranges, greens and pinks. +A preview display of items made for the fair is in the entrance lobby of Schering-Plough at Giralda Farms on Dodge Drive in Madison. It is open weekdays through Thursday from 10 A.M. to 4 P.M. Admission is free. +The Morristown fair will open on Friday at the National Guard Armory on Western Avenue. The hours are 6 to 10 P.M. An illustrated talk on the glass and crystal art of Rene Lalique will be given by Nicholas M. Dawes at 8 P.M. Friday. Admission is $10, and free parking is available. +On Saturday and next Sunday, the hours are 10 A.M. to 6 P.M. Admission is $5, or free for children under 12 years old. On both days there will be mask-making workshops for children aged 4 to 10. These will take place between 10 A.M. and 2 P.M. +CRAFTS" +False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Corrections +Because of an editing error, an obituary on Wednesday about P.W.

He also wanted to increase the number of laws that carry felony penalties for animal cruelty. +Mr. Pacelle said he has speaking engagements around the state planned for November. +'Connecticut consumers have to make choices that affect the lives of animals, like eating certain foods and using products that are tested on animals,' he said. +WORTH NOTING" +False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Exhibitions on Costumes and Photographs Emphasize Color +NOT long ago, a museum in New Jersey exhibited paintings of birds in cages to the tune of chirps and tweets. The effect was magical, but it was hard to decide which was more disconcerting, the illusion that the painted images were singing or the fact that the sounds were actually coming from an aviary installed in an anteroom. +This audio-visual event was planned, while that at the Hammond Museum here came about by accident. The visual part consists of two shows, one featuring Chinese folk costumes, the other color photographs of nature and architectural details, taken by David Crofoot. The audio portion is the frog chorale that usually emanates from the museum's Japanese Stroll Garden. Upon reflection, the blend is anything but incongruous, for there must be frogs lurking in some of the scenes depicted by Mr. Crofoot, whereas the visual noise made by clothes mounted on fire-engine-red panels is as loud as its aural counterpart outside. The displays were masterminded by Abigail Free, director of the museum and before that assistant director of public relations at the Spoleto Festival in Italy, but this, the larger of the two, was supplied by the consulate general of China. +Corporations and countries are going in opposite directions, the first expanding in size as they shrink in number, the second becoming smaller and more numerous. Communism, meanwhile, declines, leaving the field open to its arch-enemy individualism. China defies these rules of thumb by remaining intact as a Communist superpower with a population of more than a billion, 8 percent of whom belong to 55 ethnic groups. Its record for tolerance is less than perfect, yet now the country sponsors an exhibition promoting the interests of 16 minorities. The brochure suggests that the gesture was almost certainly made with tourism and other economic factors in mind, but the show hints that nostalgia, the bedfellow of consumerism, is another probable cause. A display of clothes that are traditional in design but modern in vintage smacks of American Indian war bonnets worn in pageants. +Of course, it is not a spectacle for purists: visitors conditioned by dynastic masterpieces may be disturbed by the inclusion of modern, sometimes gaudy, printed fabrics; the sight of hand embroidery cheek-by-jowl with the machine variety may have the same effect on crafts enthusiasts. The ideal viewer is the one with at least a smattering of Chinese history who has seen work produced by contemporary artists, which ranges from the nonobjective to the Photo Realistic, as well as that of the past. Clothing this may be, but it nonetheless mirrors a culture that, for all its ethnic variations, has remained so grandly monolithic as to make the Western preoccupation with individualism seem trite. +A nomadic people, the Mongols made their mark by unifying China and founding the world's largest empire; they excelled as city planners, allowing nothing to stand in their way, and as horsemen, they may have invented the chic tunic-and-boot outfit. Still one of the most striking ensembles comes from the Gaoshan, a people indigenous to southeast China and Taiwan. It involves black pants and a matching tunic embroidered with two figures, male and female, each of whom stands with a serpent-like creature dangling from either hand. The ornament, which includes a decorative border, has a surprisingly African look, if not the outfit. +Under Mao, these bright garments, some trimmed with pearls, sequins and silver bells, were replaced by a blue cotton uniform not unlike that which took over the United States in the 1960's and 70's. Also on view are photographs of contemporary Chinese, the most striking of which is a black-and-white study of a young Bai woman, seated in aquiline profile as she embroiders a slipper. +Mr. Crofoot resides in but is by no means confined to Bedford Hills. Paris and Atlanta bring out the classicist him, the one inspiring a sepia-toned study of the Pantheon's interior, the other a somewhat sarcastic appreciation of an airport parking lot empty of cars but full of street lamps. Mushrooms, however, send Mr. Crofoot into transports of eroticism and pedantry, both. +The historian Peter Gay has observed that literary allusions are a means whereby 'the educated communicate over the heads of the vulgar'; an insistence on botanical terms may be another. In any event, Mr. Crofoot seems waggishly determined to keep the great unwashed at bay, as when he entices them by depicting the heads of palms reeling in a gale against the stormy sky, only to title the scene 'Phragmites.' +The irritation provoked by pretentiousness is dispelled by the image, which is stunning, as are those of ice formations, tree trunks and other natural wonders. But it is less easy to forgive Mr. Crofoot when he lapses into photographic cliche (and condescension) by focusing on an overweight woman dressed in leisure clothes and leaning against a van -- this from a series called 'You Know Them by the Clothes They Wear.' +Both shows continue through July 12, and with luck, the frog concert, too; but, alas, the museum's Chinese festival opens and closes today.

Before that, he spent more than 20 years in the city's Department of Employment, overseeing various job-training programs for the unemployed and disadvantaged. +Ninfa Segarra, Deputy Mayor for Education and Human Services, said Mr. Oesterreich's extensive experience with employment programs would be especially valuable at a time when the agency is planning more work programs intended to lead the homeless to self-sufficiency. +'Issues of homelessness can be controversial,' Ms. Segarra added. 'His extraordinary ability to have good community relations is a real asset.' +At the Department for Youth and Community Development, Mr. Oesterreich oversaw the creation of Citizenship N.Y.C., a program to help legal permanent residents gain citizenship, and expanded the Beacon Afterschool program to 79 locations from 39. +He is a longtime resident of Staten Island. He is a veteran of Vietnam, where he was awarded the Purple Heart, and a 1976 graduate of John Jay College. +Mr. Oesterreich will be assuming the leadership of an agency that has not had a commissioner since September 1998, when Gordon J. Campbell left. For months, the agency had been caught in the middle of a fierce political battle between the Mayor and the City Council, but a compromise was reached last month. +Mr. Giuliani had vetoed a bill that would have kept the agency independent from the city's Human Resources Administration because he opposed the conditions attached by the City Council. Those conditions included a 200-bed limit on the size of new shelters for the homeless. The Council also issued rules to stop the practice of allowing homeless families with children to sleep overnight on the floor of the city's central Emergency Assistance Unit in the Bronx for emergency shelter. +The dispute escalated when the Council passed the new shelter regulations over Mr. Giuliani's veto. In retaliation, the Mayor threatened to put a homeless shelter in the district of Councilman Stephen DiBrienza, the bill's chief sponsor. The compromise reached last month included the Council's agreement to change a provision that kept the Department of Homeless Services part of the Human Resources Administration. That bill is expected to be passed later this month, Ms. Segarra said. +The deal included a guarantee of job security to the 2,000 people who work in homeless services.

Parents from two East Harlem schools are threatening a boycott of the assessment, which involves writing an essay about a reading selection. +The schools, all members of the nonprofit Center for Collaborative Education, want the Board of Education to accept something similar to their current methods of assessing students skills, said Heather Lewis, the center's executive co-director. +Education experts say the new test is aimed at preparing students for the fourth-grade test. And the test has provoked similar worries, especially in the city's alternative elementary schools, some of which have struggled with the board over their independence and have rejected standard report cards in favor of teacher-written essays on students' progress. +Linda Colon, the co-chairwoman of the Parents Association of Central Park East I, an alternative school in East Harlem, said she was calling parents to gauge their feelings about the test. 'We have a perfectly adequate way of assessing students in the early grades,' Ms. Colon said. 'We don't need this other tool.' Egeria Bennett, a member of the Parents Association of River East, the other East Harlem school, said she plans to call parents to discuss her objections as well. +If a waiver of the test is not granted, some parents plan to boycott the test. +'I prefer him to stay home,' said Maritza Ocasio-Solis, whose son Alex attends second grade at Central Park East I. 'I don't think he is ready for such a test.' Diana Domenech, whose daughter Jessya Brown is a second grader at River East, plans to do the same. +Sidney Massey, the teacher-director of River East, wrote in a school newsletter article, 'Who will shout out, 'We've had enough!' ' He also asked what would happen if parents 'requested/demanded of school personnel that their youngsters not participate in such testing?' +J. D. LaRock, a spokesman for the Board of Education, said it did not have a policy on exemptions from the test. But he said because the scores are not used for promotions or school placement, there should be no anxiety about them. 'The thought is parents would want their children to take the test to be more informed about their reading,' Mr. LaRock said. +Edward Chittenden, senior research scientist at the Educational Testing Service in Princeton, N.J., said that testing small children can do more damage than good if parents or schools attach too much importance to it. Also, reading is not a skill that needs a precise measurement, he said: 'It is kind of like riding a bicycle. You can tell pretty quickly if they know how.' +But Lucy Calkins, a professor at Teachers College at Columbia University, said the new test, together with another twice-yearly reading assessment, are a 'giant step ahead' from the city's old multiple-choice tests. The new techniques help teachers to assess students against set standards, she said. 'As teachers we have to face facts,' she said. 'You have to confront where your kids are.' +JULIAN E.

Their children call them the 'Happy Wedding Watchers.' +Rhoda Hill, 67, is the club president, but her official duties are few. Recently she arrived first and staked out the perfect viewing spot, a prime patch of shade with stairs nearby to rest on. 'No matter how hot it is, it's cool where we sit,' she said. +Next to arrive was Daphne Joseph, 71, a mother of seven, a grandmother of 17 and a great-grandmother of nine. She wore a white T-shirt bearing the message: 'At my age I've seen it all; I've heard it all; I've done it all; I just can't remember it all.' Ms. Joseph admits, with no shame, that it's true. +Then came Joyce Johnston, 70, carrying three mystery novels, and Madge Plummer, 55, with her hair in curlers. A dozen other women hold membership to the club, but these four claim seniority. +About 4 p.m., the white limousines began pulling up, first one, then two, then two dozen. Traffic was jammed so tight that an ambulance had to drive onto the curb and over the grass to get by. Within an hour, the police threatened to ticket and tow the limousines, which were parked bumper to bumper along the rotary, some of them crisscrossed beneath the arch. +In an instant, the plaza swirled with colors. One bride wore a traditional African dress with a matching head wrap. The bridesmaids in an Asian wedding party were draped in lipstick red, while a Latino couple wore customary black and white. Photographers barked orders as young boys in tuxedos tried to loosen their collars. +'It's a cultural experience,' Ms. Plummer explained. +'We see the good, the bad and the ugly,' Ms. Joseph interjected as five groomsmen walked past on the brick path, each of them wearing peach-colored suits and awkward smiles. +Ms. Hill, the bold one, shouted flattery, and instructions, to already bewildered brides. 'You don't want lace showing, honey,' she advised a woman posing on the steps leading up to the fountain, before rearranging the hem herself. +As another wedding procession passed, Ms. Hill grabbed the hand of a young flower girl who was teetering precariously on high heels. Moments later, she spread out a plastic Macy's bag so a bride could sit without dirtying her gown. +Ms. Hill frets over the women as only a mother could. 'This is my relaxation time,' she said. +All the women, who have raised babies and buried a few, agreed that seeing a couple in love and just starting out seemed to put things in their proper perspective. +At times, they said, the plaza feels like the nexus of the universe and the world is made a little smaller. Four generations will sometimes converge, with grandchildren and great-grandchildren scurrying about. The retired women have been reunited with old friends who just happened by, and whose children will often make a point of visiting the plaza on their wedding day. +On one occasion, Ms. Plummer recalled, a man who had lived next door to her family years ago in Jamaica (the island, not the one in Queens) arrived at the plaza, arm in arm with a woman they had not known as his wife. Taken aback, she said, she whispered to her mother: 'Isn't that him? I didn't know he had found a new wife.' Ms. Plummer mustered a shy wave. The man turned red, then turned away. +Between the ebb and flow of wedding parties, the women marveled at how big Ms. Hill's twin grandchildren, Nina and Nicholas, had grown in 16 months. Children in America grow up so fast, they said, and so wild. 'What do they put in the food?' Ms. Joseph asked in the lilting tones of her native Trinidad. +The women commiserate with one another. There's never enough time, they say, or money. Ms. Joseph moaned about a man who had promised to frame a mirror for her, but kept it and her cash instead. Ms. Plummer said she had been thinking a lot about her life lately; she had tossed flowers on the coffin of a childhood friend the day before. +'What is life?' she wondered. +Conversation turned, as it often does, to the Bible. Ms. Plummer brought up King Solomon. He had wealth, he drank from a golden cup, he had all the women he could want. But he also had something that they are all seeking: wisdom. 'Vanity is vanity, all is vanity,' Ms. Plummer recited. +They talked about Sept. 11, how some were saved and others lost, and worried that most people still treated one another like trash. They remembered their own weddings and how their families feuded over who would be in the bridal parties. When, they wondered, are people going to realize that life's too short? +Their conversation, its lines of logic circling like the traffic, continued as the sun dipped behind the trees, casting a soft green hue across the plaza. +Prospect Park Journal" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"HOT DIGGITY!

He was 72. +He died of a heart attack, a spokesman for the synagogue said. +Membership of the congregation now stands at 400, but the synagogue also draws many worshipers who work on Wall Street and elsewhere downtown and who want to pray during the workday. +While other Orthodox synagogues of the Lower East Side closed as their members moved to Brooklyn or the suburbs, the Bialystoker Synagogue grew as the newly fashionable neighborhood's Orthodox community also rebounded. Rabbi Singer 'was significantly responsible in bringing about its renaissance,' said Sheldon Silver, the speaker of the New York State Assembly, in a telephone interview from Tel Aviv yesterday. +'Surprisingly, in his later years, his synagogue was the one where many young people moving into the neighborhood became affiliated,' said Mr. Silver, a vice president of the synagogue and a lifelong member whose bar mitzvah was held there. Mr. Silver invited Rabbi Singer to deliver the invocation in the State Legislature when he was elected speaker in 1994. +Known as a eloquent orator, Torah scholar and philanthropist, Rabbi Singer was a rarity in Orthodox Jewry: a magnet for those from across the spectrum of Orthodox practice from modern to Hasidic. +'Though in practice and ritual, he and the synagogue followed all the tenets of Orthodoxy, he welcomed everyone from the ultrareligious to those who were not at all observant and made them feel they belonged,' said Norman Dawidowicz, a past president of the congregation, founded in 1878 by immigrants from the Polish city of Bialystok. +Heir to a rabbinic tradition, Rabbi Singer was born in Newark in 1928. Two years after his ordination at the Yeshiva Torah Vodaath in Brooklyn, he assumed the pulpit that had been held by his late father, Rabbi Eliahu Singer, at the Austreich Ungarisher Shul in Newark. He was also spiritual leader of the Garden Street Synagogue in Hartford from 1956 to 1960. +He married Bluma Halperin, the daughter of a Hasidic leader and a direct descendant of the Baal Shem Tov, the 18th-century founder of Hasidism. +She survives him, as do five sons, Boruch Singer, Yosef Singer and Yisroel Singer of Manhattan, Rabbi Eli Hersh Singer of Brooklyn, and Nussie Singer of Queens; two brothers, Yosef Singer of Englewood, N.J., and Jack Singer of Brooklyn; and 12 grandchildren. +In 1960, Rabbi Yitzchok Singer moved to New York, where he became leader of the Bialystoker Synagogue, an anchor for Jewish life on the Lower East Side. The synagogue is believed to be the only one in the city that has four services every morning, starting at 6 a.m. for people who are in their offices at 7 a.m. +Rabbi Singer raised funds for institutions, schools, yeshivas and hospitals, and sometimes helped strangers who walked in off the street.

Special attention will be paid to periods after storms and during full moons, when tides run high and carry debris. +In the last two years, much debris has been deposited on beaches, leaving them unused or underused, even on the best days. The material that washed up, some of which was medical waste, was occasionally accompanied by news of malfunctions at sewage-treatment plants and the presence of coliform bacteria in bathing areas. 'Lack of Public Faith and Trust' +The new effort was announced by the acting regional administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, William J. Muszynski, who cited a 'lack of public faith and trust in ocean waters' and $2 billion in lost revenue because sunbathers feared using the beaches. +Mr. Muszynski was accompanied at a news conference at 26 Federal Plaza by officials of New York State and City, New Jersey, the Coast Guard and the Army Corps of Engineers. The initiative principally involves creating a group of workers from the agencies. +The agencies have vowed to communicate more extensively with one another, coordinate efforts and work harder by using boats and helicopters to collect floating garbage, called 'floatables,' more aggressively. +'The primary thing is the coordination and the communications network,' said Margaret Randol, a spokeswoman for the E.P.A. and its acting director of external programs. +Three vessels normally used by the Corps of Engineers to collect driftwood will also collect floating garbage. They will go to designated spots in the Narrows and the Raritan Bay-Arthur Kill area for the three-day period around three full moons in the summer. The boats will be equipped with small-mesh nets to pick up garbage. +Corps vessels have tried to collect trash before, but not with the nets that New York and New Jersey will provide. An engineer, Col. Marion Caldwell, said he hoped that with the new nets his ships would be more effective. 'To Be Kept in Perspective' +Mr. Muszynski stressed that the effort was a pilot program that was not the 'be-all and end-all answer,' but that it should reduce beach closings and warnings to the public like those issued the last two summers. He cited work begun by New York City and New Jersey to clean shorelines to the high-tide point. +'I think the announcement needs to be kept in perspective,' Representative Robert G. Torricelli, Democrat of Hackensack, N.J., said. 'The harbor will never be cleaned and the beaches never secure until a proper investment is made in storm-water systems and much more is done to to remove rotting piles and submerged vessels that are causing the debris.' +Mr. Torricelli called the initiative a positive development but 'a very measured response to a much larger problem.' +'There will never be enough ships to remove debris from the harbor,' he said. 'People must understand that although the tone of the Bush Administration has changed, the budget remains remarkably the same.' Rules on Medical Waste +A senior scientist of the Natural Resources Defense Council, Allen Hershkowitz, said the Government had been laggard in issuing regulations on medical waste, where it originates and where it goes. +Mr. Muszynski said at his news conference that new rules would be issued by the end of the month. Mr. Hershkowitz said he doubted that hospitals and clinics would be able to respond quickly enough. +'I am convinced that the stuff will still wash up on shore,' Mr. Hershkowitz said. 'It is a stopgap Band-Aid gesture brought about by a desperate concern about the public's outrage that will be once again unleashed on a regulatory environment that has inadequately protected the public interest.' +The commander of the First Coast Guard District, Rear Adm. Richard I. Rybacki, said cutters and helicopters would be ordered to look for trash. The areas to receive special attention include parts of the Hudson and East Rivers, the Arthur Kill and Newark and Raritan Bays. He said the activity would be akin to the Coast Guard work in detecting oil spills. +The chief of operations of the Corps of Engineers, Thomas M. Creamer, said the corps would not hire new workers or divert people from other jobs to retrieve garbage, even though they would have the additional task of separating trash from driftwood and turning it over to the New York City Sanitation Department. +'The key,' he said, 'is to take our ongoing drift-collection boats and put them into scientifically selected positions.'" +False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Questions About a Sting That Used a Teen-Ager +The parents of an 11-year-old New Jersey boy who was murdered near his home last fall while selling candy for school are considering suing the law enforcement, court and mental health officials who had dealings with the suspect, a 15-year-old boy, for several turbulent weeks before the killing. +The victim's parents, Edward and Valerie Werner, formally notified the officials by letter this month that they might seek financial damages in the death of their son, Edward, who was sodomized and strangled Sept. 27 in Jackson Township. +The parents' lawyer, Beth G. Baldinger, cautioned that the letters did not accuse anyone of making mistakes that led to the murder. She said they were filed because a state law required the Werners to inform public agencies and officials of a possible lawsuit within 90 days of the crime. She said a final decision on a suit would be made after the criminal investigation ends. +The Werners' letter focuses on two stormy episodes in the life of the suspect, Samuel Manzie, in the month before the murder. The first was his recruitment in an undercover investigation of a 43-year-old paroled pedophile who officials say had enticed him, via the Internet, into an illicit affair. At first the teen-ager, with his parents' blessing, agreed to let investigators secretly record his phone calls with the man, Stephen Simmons of Holbrook, N.Y. But then the youth rebelled, smashing the recording device and alerting Mr. Simmons to the investigation. +After the outburst, Samuel Manzie became unruly, and his parents tried to have him committed for long-term psychiatric care. But officials at an emergency psychiatric center in the Kimball Medical Center in Lakewood, N.J., and at the Ocean County Family Court rejected their request. +The court system and the Kimball Center have received the Werners' letter, as has the Shoreline Behavioral Health Center in Toms River, where the Manzies sent their son for outpatient counseling after learning of his relationship with Mr. Simmons. Letters have also gone to the Monmouth County Prosecutor's office and the New Jersey State Police, the lead agencies investigating Mr. Simmons. +Psychiatrists and experts in prosecution of pedophiles have endorsed the use of 'sting calls' like those made by the Manzie youth. But they recommend that officials get a therapist's assessment of a teen-age victim before setting up the sting, to make sure he or she can handle the emotional stress. +That was not done in Samuel Manzie's case. +The Federal Bureau of Investigation has also endorsed sting calls as a valuable way to capture pedophiles, and has said that, while some teen-age participants could suffer further emotional trauma, most found that it gave them 'an almost therapeutic sense of empowerment or return of control.' +The National Center for Prosecution of Child Abuse, a branch of the National District Attorneys Association, calls the stings a 'highly effective tool' against child abuse. But in training prosecutors to work with youths, the center recommends psychiatric evaluations for the youths recruited, including those with no history of mental instability. +'The dynamics of sexual abuse creates all kinds of emotional and psychological ramifications in children,' said Daniel M. Armagh, the center's director. 'Some children are just not emotionally ready to confront a perpetrator on the phone.' +John A. Kaye, the Monmouth County Prosecutor, said the authorities had not believed Samuel Manzie needed an assessment. 'This boy was calm and cooperative throughout the entire matter,' Mr. Kaye said. 'Everything seemed normal. We had no indication he had any psychological problems. Even if we did a psychological and it was borderline, we might have gone ahead anyway. No one thought for a millisecond what could have happened to Eddie Werner.' +Mr. Kaye said Samuel Manzie's parents, Nicholas and Dolores, wanted Mr. Simmons arrested and endorsed their son's making the calls. +But immediately after Samuel Manzie was arrested, the family's lawyer, Michael Critchley, said the authorities had been 'playing with dynamite' by enlisting the youth, since at the time he had been the victim of sexual abuse, was in outpatient psychiatric treatment and was taking an antidepressant, Paxil. +Mr. Kaye rejected the notion that the sting calls were a factor in the murder. 'I don't think you can lay the blame for what happened in Jackson Township on anyone other than the actor himself,' he said. +Several psychiatrists interviewed recently said they approved using abuse victims for sting calls. But, like Mr. Armagh, they stressed the need for an evaluation of emotional stability before a youth was selected. +The psychiatrists said some teen-age victims of pedophiles may not have the same values as detectives or share the vindictiveness that pedophilia creates in parents and other adults, especially if the child still has a sense of loyalty to the abuser. +Dr. Hans Steiner, a professor of psychiatry at Stanford University Medical Center, said the Manzie youth's involvement with a 43-year-old man suggested he had already been struggling with his sexual identity and was therefore emotionally fragile. 'Their error was they thought he was a full-functioning adult,' Dr. Steiner said. 'Suppose he had a positive attachment? You're stacking the cards against the kid.' +Dr. Fred Berlin, an associate professor of psychiatry at Johns Hopkins University, said, 'If we were imposing our adult sensitivities on him, we may have inadvertently added to his difficulties.' +Dr. Diane Schetky, a child and forensic psychiatrist in Rockport, Me., agreed with her colleagues that the authorities should have learned more about the Manzie youth's strengths and vulnerabilities before enlisting his help. She said it was possible the boy was ashamed of his relationship with Mr. Simmons and of helping detectives. +'Shame often underlies a lot of violent acts,' Dr. Schetky said. 'If he's got a lot of self-loathing, he might turn his anger on someone beneath him, trying to feel he's in control and more powerful.' +Even though Mr. Kaye's staff did not have the Manzie youth evaluated before recruiting him, there were other attempts to treat his psychological problems before the murder. +A day or so after their son quit the investigation, the Manzies began a futile quest to have him committed for long-term psychiatric treatment. +On Sept. 22, five days before the murder, they went to the Kimball Medical Center, which is regulated by New Jersey's Division of Mental Health Services. After the boy was kept overnight, a mental-health screener found that he posed no danger to himself or others and thus did not meet the state's legal standard for involuntary commitment. +Officials at Kimball and at New Jersey's Division of Mental Health Services, which oversees crisis centers like Kimball, refused to discuss the case or identify who made the psychiatric assessment of the teen-ager, citing confidentiality of medical records. +But Mr. Kaye said Mrs. Manzie had adamantly refused to take her son home from Kimball on Sept. 23. At one point, he said, officials there discussed the possibility that Mrs. Manzie, not her son, should be in a psychiatric institution. 'She was very emotional,' Mr. Kaye said. +A family lawyer, David Ruhnke, said that the parents were afraid of their son and that Mrs. Manzie had told officials at Kimball, 'If you make me take him home, I'll slit my throat.' +But, Mr. Ruhnke said, the officials insisted on discharging the youth. +The next morning, the family took their case to a Family Court judge in Toms River, James N. Citta. +But an official in the court's family crisis unit, Paula H. Jacques, said the youth did not require long-term inpatient treatment, court records show. As the Manzies listened, Ms. Jacques told Judge Citta, 'He is their child and he is their responsibility, and he's going to get better faster if they help.' +Judge Citta told the boy that he did not seem to be mentally disabled or psychopathic, but appeared to have 'adjustment problems.' He ordered family counseling." +False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Lawyers Pressing Trenton On 'Megan's Law' Money +The New Jersey Bar Association began a campaign yesterday to push state government to provide public defenders for indigent sex offenders filing appeals under ""Megan's Law"" instead of relying on private lawyers to represent them free. +There has been widespread grumbling in the legal community about proposals that lawyers work free, or pro bono, for the sex offenders. The state bar association's trustees voted to file a lawsuit against the mandatory unpaid assignments in early November if they are not dropped. +In a statement issued after the trustees met in New Brunswick, the president of the association, Harold A. Sherman, appeared to set a deadline for state government to act. Mr. Sherman said the association, which has 20,000 members, will hire a lawyer by Nov. 1, ""in the event that other ways of resolving the issue prove ineffective."" +In the statement, Mr. Sherman said that state-paid public defenders were fully capable of handling appeals filed by convicted offenders and that the association would press the Legislature to finance hearings for those appeals and any subsequent ones. +The lawyer hired by the association would be charged with preparing a lawsuit, according to the statement. But no date was set for the filing of the suit. +Mr. Sherman declined to comment on the statement after the trustees' meeting. The statement read in part: +""We are hopeful that the Governor, the Legislature, and the Chief Justice will take the appropriate steps necessary to remedy the situation, and that a lawsuit won't be necessary. However, the bottom line is that attorneys should not be forced to handle cases of such a highly specialized, costly, time-consuming and onerous nature."" +In addition, according to the statement, some lawyers have a ""moral objection"" to representing convicted sex offenders. +The law was named after 7-year-old Megan Kanka, who was raped and killed in July 1994 in Hamilton Township, N.J., by a neighbor who had twice been convicted of sex crimes. Residents did not know his criminal history, and the Legislature consequently enacted a law providing for community notification of the presence of sex offenders who have served their sentences. Last July, the State Supreme Court upheld the constitutionality of the law, but gave offenders the right to challenge notification provisions made against them. The court also said that indigent offenders were entitled to court-appointed lawyers. +This week, both Gov. Christine Todd Whitman and the Senate President, Donald T. DiFrancesco, expressed willingness to listen to the lawyers' complaints but were not ready to enlist the public defenders or provide any extra money for them. Mr. DiFrancesco said the complaints about the pro bono work were premature. He said no one knew how many sex offenders would seek appeals against county prosecutors' assessments of them as dangerous, and of those, how many would be poor enough to qualify for a free, court-appointed lawyer. +Of nine offenders' hearings scheduled so far in state courts, only two offenders have qualified for pro bono lawyers." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,"Mayor Turns a Step Back Into a Stride Ahead +Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg figured out a way yesterday to turn bad news, like Citigroup's decision to move 1,900 jobs out of Lower Manhattan, into a ray of economic sunshine. +He announced that Citigroup, the city's largest private employer, would erect a $200 million office building in Long Island City, Queens, and had promised to increase its work force by 600 over the next two years. +The fact that Citigroup was pulling 1,600 technology jobs out of the still-wounded precincts of Lower Manhattan and sending them to a corporate campus in Warren, N.J., did not even come up until the seventh paragraph of a nine-paragraph mayoral news release. That is where it also mentioned that another 300 bank jobs would depart for Melville, on Long Island. +'Yes, some jobs are going to New Jersey, but more jobs are coming here, and that's the trend that you want,' Mr. Bloomberg said at a news conference. 'You will always lose some kinds of jobs. The question is: Are you making New York an attractive place so that you have more jobs coming in than going out, and are the jobs coming in the higher-value jobs which give New York more of a future? And I think this is a very positive announcement.' +The mayor told reporters that Citigroup had promised to replace the existing 1,900 jobs over the next two years with higher-paying jobs. Citigroup's president, Robert B. Willumstad, said the bank would not give up any space in Lower Manhattan. +The bank said it would add 2,500 jobs in all to its New York payroll over the next two years.

McGreevey did not gloat about stealing jobs from Manhattan (unlike his predecessors) when he held his own news conference in Trenton yesterday. In fact, he did not even mention New York. +He said that thanks to a tax break worth $57 million over 10 years, Citigroup planned to move 1,600 'out-of-state jobs' to a corporate campus in Warren (the former home of Lucent Technologies), and create 650 jobs. +As for Long Island City, Citigroup said it would build a 14-story, 475,000- square-foot building for 1,500 workers across the street from its existing 48-story office building on Court Square. +It plans to move 800 people from Midtown and add another 700 jobs over time. +'Citigroup is the city's largest private-sector employer,' the mayor said in the release, 'and will get even bigger with the construction of this beautiful new building and commitment to create more jobs in New York City.'" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,"Bulldozers In Camden Make Room for Affordable Homes +Workers began demolishing an entire block of abandoned, dilapidated brick town houses today as part of the Whitman administration's first major effort to help build affordable housing in this impoverished city on the Delaware River. +Gov. Christine Todd Whitman climbed into a front loader to help knock down the first of 35 city-owned buildings on Washington Street that have been empty for more than a decade. Mrs. Whitman said the demolition would not only pave the way for construction of new row houses, but also help rid the neighborhood of drug dealers who had been operating out of the abandoned buildings. +'By sending these machines into action, we are clearing the way for a rebirth of this historic city,' Mrs. Whitman said. 'Where there are crack houses, there will be family homes. Where there are dangerous streets, there will be safe communities.' +Governor Whitman, who has been accused of paying too little attention to the state's cities, said she had done more to spur economic development in urban areas than previous governors. She also dismissed criticism by affordable-housing advocates that she has not provided additional state money to create more such housing statewide. The Governor earlier this year rejected a legislative proposal for a $290 million bond act to help finance new and rehabilitated housing. Mrs. Whitman said the state had enough resources to do the job. +State and local officials estimate that there are more than 3,000 vacant houses in Camden, where the unemployment rate exceeds 20 percent and more than half of the city's 87,000 residents receive some form of government assistance. State, city and business leaders have been struggling over different plans to help revitalize the city. +While Mayor Arnold W. Webster has had his differences with the Whitman administration, he praised the project and the administration's plans to help finance the construction of 30 new row houses on the site. 'I have to take a positive approach to this,' Mr. Webster said. 'It is going to be a shot in the arm for us.' +Jane M. Kenny, the State Commissioner of Community Affairs, said the town houses, built in 1880, were in such disrepair that it was cheaper to demolish than to renovate them. She said they would be replaced with new three-bedroom row houses that are to be completed next September and then sold to low- and moderate-income families for between $50,000 and $70,000. The state intends to demolish an additional 20 buildings in the coming year in Camden, and replace them with new construction. The total cost of the project is about $6 million. The state has provided financing to help create approximately 90 new housing units in Camden in the last two years, state officials said. +The Rev. Paul J. Breslin, pastor of a nearby Roman Catholic church, St. Anthony of Padua, and a founder of Camden Churches Organized for the People, has been urging the Whitman administration to do something about vacant buildings here. He praised the demolition project, but he said he hoped the state would help renovate vacant houses on blocks where families are now living. 'That is what we are looking for and they seem supportive of that,' Father Breslin said. +Esther Lopez, 26, who stood on a corner with her five small children watching the demolition begin, said she was glad that the buildings were being taken down. 'A lot of drug dealers have been going in and out of there,' she said. 'They find a lot of dead bodies in there.' +But Ms. Lopez added that her calls to city officials to do something about the four vacant houses on her nearby block have gone unanswered. 'It is really bad,' she said. 'There are drug dealers in there and then they sit on the stoop all night. I can't let the kids out to play because they find needles and things.'" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,"Update; Attention Shoppers: No More Parking Lot Tax Snoopers +When New York State's Commissioner of Taxation and Finance sent employees to northern New Jersey in December to write down the license plate numbers of New Yorkers shopping there and then sent them letters, he said the purpose was ""educating people about their tax responsibility."" +But many outraged consumers saw the snooping as a Big Brother-like invasion of privacy.

His pharmaceutical company -- which he founded but had later been forced to leave -- was dying. His finances were stretched thin, and he was selling his home in Hopewell Township, N.J., for $1.6 million. His wife was cheating on him. And he knew it. +It was against this backdrop, testimony reveals, that on a snowy January night in 2004, Dr. Nyce was in the garage of his home in central New Jersey, his three children tucked in their beds, his wife, Michelle, emerging from her Toyota Land Cruiser. She had just returned from a motel encounter with a landscaper, Miguel DeJesus, 35 -- a man Mrs. Nyce had promised her husband she would not see again. +Soon Mrs. Nyce, 34, was dead, her body, bloodied and beaten, found the next day inside the Land Cruiser in a creek a mile from her home. Her husband became the prime suspect. +What happened that night is now a matter for a State Superior Court jury in Mercer County to decide in a case fraught with betrayal, lust, extortion claims, lies and, possibly, videotapes. +Testimony began last Thursday, and in the first few days jurors have heard an involved account. They learned that Mrs. Nyce had carried on a yearlong affair with the landscaper, who had planted trees in their yard, and that Dr. Nyce took steps to put a stop to it. +On Wednesday, the landscaper, who said he had used several aliases, testified that he had, indeed, had an affair with Mrs. Nyce. He also testified that Dr. Nyce, 55, had called him on his cellphone in July 2003 and threatened him. 'He said, 'You put your hands on my wife again, you're going to be a dead man,'' Mr. DeJesus said. +Prosecutors contend that Dr. Nyce confronted and viciously attacked his wife, repeatedly smashing her head into the concrete floor. They say he then stuffed her behind the driver's seat of her Land Cruiser and steered the car with an ice pick down to the half-frozen Jacobs Creek, where he left her. He faces two counts, first-degree murder and trying to cover up a crime. He could face life in prison if convicted. +Dr. Nyce's lawyer, Robin K. Lord, says that the death of Mrs. Nyce was 'an accident,' and that she will prove that in court. She says that Dr. Nyce has been accused of a crime he 'did not commit' and that she will show that his wife, who she says repeatedly cheated on him, tried to attack him first. She declined to elaborate on her strategy. +'We know what occurred in that garage,' she said in a recent interview, 'and hopefully the jury will agree, when it's all said and done.' +But Ms. Lord lost a crucial pretrial battle when a judge allowed as evidence a statement Dr. Nyce made to the police saying he had heard a thud that 'made me sick' when his wife hit the concrete. And in his initial appearance in court in January, Dr. Nyce described his wife's death -- against the protest of his lawyer -- thus: 'This, what happened, was a pure accident.' She said she has not decided whether Dr. Nyce will testify. +The case has opened up a hidden world. Dr. Nyce was, by all accounts, a bright yet socially awkward man. He was about 20 years older than his Filipino wife, whom he met through a newspaper advertisement in 1990, when she was 19, her family said. A doctor of philosophy and a graduate of Temple University, Dr. Nyce was widely published in academic journals. His paper in Nature in 1997 suggested an innovative way to fight asthma, and he founded a company named EpiGenesis, now in Cranbury, N.J., to help create the drug. But the drug failed in early trials, and the company cut costs and staff. By 2003, Dr. Nyce was forced out. +In the summer before his wife's death, Dr. Nyce went to F.B.I. agents to complain that he had been threatened with extortion by a man who claimed to have videotapes of his wife having sex with another man and who threatened to sell them unless he was paid $500,000. +Dr. Nyce obtained a restraining order against Mr. DeJesus. +In testimony on Tuesday, the lead police detective for Hopewell Township, Daniel B. McKeown, said he had investigated the extortion claims in 2003. +'I didn't think Mr. Nyce was being completely honest,' he said. So far no tapes have been found. +The defense has focused heavily on the relationship between Mrs. Nyce and Mr. DeJesus, suggesting that Mr. DeJesus posed a threat to the family and may have been behind the extortion attempt. But the judge, Bill Mathesius, has shown little patience for such questioning and has repeatedly cut off and chastised Dr. Nyce's lawyer. At one point this week, the prosecutor, Doris Galuchie, exclaimed, 'This is a trial within a trial within a trial, and it's so irrelevant.' Judge Mathesius added a day later that he did not want to be 'creating a thousand little trials.'" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Bush Endorses New Jersey's Welfare Revisions +Buoyed by what he saw as President Bush's endorsement of New Jersey's new welfare revision laws during the State of the Union Message on Tuesday, Assemblyman Wayne R.

Then, in the early 80's, someone realized that was a mistake. As Mr. Randolph said, 'They decided at that time I was more fit to be able to be put out in the world.' +Since 1984 he has had his own apartment. 'I pay $191,' he said. 'I used to pay $158.' His job, for State Sales Office Furniture, is cleaning up, organizing stock and helping on deliveries. 'I work 35 hours, take home $152.14 a week,' Mr. Randolph, 59 years old, said. 'That's after taxes.' He is a willing worker. His boss, John Bogdan, made a list of daily chores. 'He's memorized it,' said Mr. Bogdan. On slow days, if the boss asks Mr. Randolph to sweep the second floor again, he is sure to point out that the list says sweeping only two times a week. +The boss always knows when Mr. Randolph finishes a job. 'I can feel him before I see him,' Mr. Bogdan said. 'John sort of hawks you. He's sitting on your shoulder, ready for you to tell him what's next.' Mr. Randolph loves to answer the phone. 'He's punctual,' Mr. Bogdan said, 'here at 8 every morning.' 'Sometimes 5 after 8,' said Mr. Randolph. +The store hired Mr. Randolph because it needed an able-bodied worker. But in one of those quirky twists, Mr. Randolph turns out to be the biggest celebrity in the joint. People are so tired of the homeless side of deinstitutionalization that they are happy to meet a success story. They keep giving him awards. +Mr. Randolph has spoken at a conference in Africa. 'I was there 19 days,' he said. He has testified before Congress. +'I've been to Washington four times,' he added. In December, officials went to the store to present him the New Jersey Victory Award, honoring an outstanding disabled person. 'We never had so many neckties here,' said Mr. Bogdan. +Mr. Randolph is in the running for the national Victory Award, to be announced in June. His photograph will soon be hung in the National Rehabilitation Hospital Hall of Victory in Washington. 'I met the Governor,' said Mr. Randolph. Gov. Thomas H. Kean? 'Yep, that's the one,' Mr. Randolph said. 'Three times.' +The other day, the award winner was assembling a desk hutch. Next, he went to the back room to check stock. 'If the box says SOM-A, it's a file drawer,' he said. See SOM-B is a three-drawer. SWO-8 - that's an L-panel oak, and these are credenzas. And, see, SOS-H.' +He has such a good attitude, people like to help him. Sundays, friends drive him to Trinity United Methodist Church. For 42 years, Mr. Randolph has been in the Boy Scouts. Last summer, Larry Mosovich, whose family owns the furniture store, drove him to Scout camp. 'I couldn't believe where this camp was,' Mr. Mosovich recalled. 'John kept saying stuff like, 'Take a left at this tree.' ' +'Take 31 from Trenton,' Mr. Randolph said, 'to 46. Take 46 to where it connects to 94 and 80, then into Blairstown, then at Walnut--' +If he is asked about all the years wasted in an institution, he says he learned a lot there. He is not a perfect worker. If he thinks a job is below him, he will pout. +'He puts his head down,' Mr. Bogdan said. 'If you try to look in his face, he looks the other way.' Oh, but when Mr. Randolph is happy, he cannot hold in the smile. 'He loves going on deliveries,' said Mr. Bogdan. He loves being outdoors, in a truck, on a highway and being paid for it. He likes stopping for a sandwich. 'See, every man has their little world,' Mr. Bogdan said. 'For John, success is going on the truck.' +At day's end, Mr. Randolph asked whether there was anything to be mailed on his way home. He put on his Scout cap and headed into the rain. He identified every building on the 10-minute walk home and waited at corners for walk signs. +On the elevator, he chatted with other residents. 'Supposed to snow by Sunday,' he said. To two others he said, 'This is a reporter with me. He's doing a story on my Victory Award.' +His one-bedroom apartment at Kingsbury Towers was messy, but not outrageously. Mr. Randolph tossed his hat on the chair, beside his four other Scout caps. 'I can see the Delaware River from the living room,' he said. 'From the bedroom, I see the State Agriculture Building parking lot. Yes, this is quite a setting.' +His bookcase was full of big batteries for his camping lantern. There was not much place to sit; the sofa was jammed with a sleeping bag, groundcloths and his Special Olympics briefcase. 'I was the ambassador for New Jersey to the Special Olympics,' he said, showing a banner. 'I'll give you one of my cards.' +The elevator down was crowded. Someone was talking about the weather.

Schuber said during a news conference on the front lawn of United Water New Jersey, the water company that serves the county. 'Our uppermost concern is the safety of the people of our county.' +Mr. Schuber said he was most concerned about sufficient water supplies and pressure to fight fires in the elevated parts of the county along the Palisades. He also said he hoped the restrictions would curb heavy demands on United Water's four reservoirs and forestall a tightening of the restrictions later this summer. +The water limits come as New Jersey and other states from Maryland to New England cope with one of the worst droughts in decades. According to state officials, New Jersey just endured its second-driest July in more than 100 years and its third hottest in that time. +Mr. Schuber's declaration and the restrictions were the first ever imposed by Bergen County officials. In severe water shortages in northeastern New Jersey in the last 20 years, the Governor or the state's environmental commissioner has ordered restrictions on outdoor use of water, traditionally imposing them simultaneously on seven northeastern counties and their 2.3 million residents. +Officials in the Department of Environmental Protection said today that they were encouraging more towns, counties and local water companies to deal with water-supply problems themselves and to impose restrictions they deem necessary. +'We feel they have the sufficient capabilities to do so,' said Shing-Fu Hsueh, the state's water supply administrator. He said his staff and Gov. Christine Todd Whitman planned to focus more on statewide policies dealing with the drought and not dictate solutions to local or regional shortages. +On Monday, Mrs. Whitman issued a drought warning for all of New Jersey and appealed to all its residents to conserve water voluntarily. +Mr. Schuber's order concerned 4 of the 13 reservoirs in the northeastern part of the state. The four serve about 550,000 people in the 51 towns. The reservoirs also supply 200,000 people in seven communities in neighboring Hudson County, United Water said. +The company, a subsidiary of United Water Resources, one of the nation's largest investor-owned water companies, asked the Hudson County Executive, Robert C. Janiszewski, to declare an emergency similar to Mr. Schuber's. Mr. Janiszewski's office was prepared to issue one early this evening, but withdrew it for extra study. The draft order covered all 12 towns in Hudson County. +William Northgrave, Mr. Janiszewski's chief of staff, said it was not certain that all 12 faced a water emergency mandating outdoor restrictions. 'We don't want to issue an order that's broader than it has to be,' Mr. Northgrave said. +United Water sought the emergency declaration because its four reservoirs stood yesterday at 59.8 percent of their capacity of 13.9 billion gallons. The nine other reservoirs serving northeastern New Jersey are in far better condition. The five that supply Newark and neighboring cities were at 80.3 percent of capacity, and the Wanaque Reservoir, the largest of the 13, was 66 percent full. The average in all 13, including United Water's, was 71.3 percent. +Mr. Hsueh said that storage level, while nearly 10 percentage points below normal, was not severe enough to impose water controls on all 2.3 million people that rely on the 13 reservoirs. When Mrs. Whitman last declared a drought emergency in the state's northeastern corner, in September 1995, the 13 reservoirs were 58.7 percent full, about 19 percentage points below normal for that time of year. +Frank De Micco, president of United Water New Jersey, said heavy demand throughout July had strained the company's reservoirs. On several days, he said, it ranged between 150 million and 164 million gallons. Normal daily use in the summer is 120 million gallons, he said. Demand since May has been considerably higher than daily use in 1995, the year of the last emergency, the company said. +Mr. De Micco said that although the number of customers served by the company had risen only 5 percent since 1995, more and more customers have in-ground lawn sprinkling systems. He said one such system can use the same amount of water a day as five households. +DROUGHT RULES 51 Towns Affected +Following are water restrictions ordered by Bergen County yesterday. County officials say first-time offenders will probably receive warnings, but subsequent violations could result in a maximum penalty of six months in jail and/or a $1,000 fine per violation. +WATERING LAWNS -- United Water customers in Bergen County with addresses ending in odd numbers may water their lawns only on odd days of the month between 6 A.M. and 9 A.M. and between 6 P.M. and 9 P.M.

There it was. The ugly brick walls that echoed with the voice of the Boss, the autographed electric guitar hanging on the wall, the gray carpet exhaling the perfumes of a thousand ground-out cigarettes and a million spilled beers into the dark stillness of a rock club on a Sunday afternoon. +Ms. Manning, 41, pulled out a cellphone and dialed her brother's number. 'I'm here!' she said in a trembling voice. 'I saw it!' +'Here' is the Stone Pony, stomping ground of the young Bruce Springsteen and landmark of American rock 'n' roll. +And here, at the corner of Second and Ocean Avenues, across the street from the fabled, faded boardwalk, is where it looks as if the Stone Pony will stay. +A 2,500-unit redevelopment project planned for Asbury Park's devastated waterfront had threatened to displace the club. But after a two-month campaign featuring rallies, protests and, it is said, more than 70,000 letters, e-mail messages, petition signatures and phone calls from concerned rockers in every corner of the planet, the city government and the redeveloper have agreed to build around it. +'The Pony,' its owner, Domenic Santana, said today, 'is stable.' +The non-move is not completely official yet. But tonight the club had a free concert that it billed as a victory party, complete with the reunited Stone Pony house band from days of yore, Cats on a Smooth Surface. The redevelopment plan is expected to be voted on by the City Council by April, and the city manager, Terry Weldon, said today, 'I would be very surprised if the plan was approved without the Pony staying where it's at.' +Under the revised plan, conceived by a Miami architect, Andrés Duany, the Stone Pony and its outdoor beer garden would be bordered by an arc-shaped apartment building inhabited by people who would not mind a little late-night noise in return for a chance to live next door to a living piece of cultural history. +It almost did not happen that way. Mr. Santana said he had been ready to take the $3 million the redeveloper, Ocean Front Acquisitions, offered him for a building he bought for $800,000 two years ago -- and let the Pony be installed three blocks down the beach in an Art Deco former power plant. There it would have its own private beach and be at the center of an entertainment complex. +'Domenic had visions of all these tiki bars,' said the Stone Pony's general manager, Eileen Chapman. +But that was before The People spoke. Their message was, Don't Do It. Thousands of fans pleaded with him to stay and fight. Ms. Chapman told him, 'Don't prostitute yourself.' Mr. Santana, 39, reluctantly boarded the bandwagon. +'I realized that by us moving out, it would have changed the whole face of Asbury Park,' he said. 'This city was built as an entertainment resort town,' and the redevelopers 'would basically have segregated entertainment to the south end of town, whereas entertainment was always part of the whole oceanfront.' +Never mind that the entire purpose of the redevelopment is to change the whole pockmarked face of Asbury Park -- no amusement park will rise bold and stark from a waterfront lined with luxury condos. +The point, said Councilwoman Kate Mellina, who fought to keep the Stone Pony in place, is that 'it's not the same if you move it.' +'It's like Independence Hall,' she said. 'You can't recreate it somewhere else.' It's the place that people have in their heads when they dream of Asbury Park.' +Ms. Manning agreed. 'My brother and I were in a band back in the day,' she said, 'and we would always talk about how we were going to play in the Stone Pony with Bruce Springsteen someday. It's the dream of every garage band everywhere.' +Larry Fishman, a principal of Ocean Front Acquisitions, seemed resigned to the status quo. 'If they want to stay where they are, which I don't think it's a good decision but I'll live with it, I'm going to have to comply,' he said. +Gentrification will not leave the weathered, off-white Pony completely untouched. The new agreement with the city and Ocean Front requires Mr. Santana to make some repairs. 'We don't care if the style stays the same, but we don't want it falling apart,' Mr. Fishman said. +Mr. Fishman seemed relieved that the battle of the Stone Pony was over, but today, there was a crowded open house a few blocks away at another club, the Fast Lane, that has a date with the wrecking ball and has its own claim to rock history. +'Joey Ramone, God rest his soul, has played on this stage,' the owner, Walter Burns, told an audience of about 150. 'Mr. Bruce has played on this stage, jamming several times with Jon Bon Jovi, who got his start on this stage when he was 17.

Towns; A Downtown Too Decaf For Starbucks +AT first, it doesn't hit you. A stroll down Main Avenue reveals an ordinary, if aging, suburban downtown with a shoe repair shop, a couple of dry cleaners, a luncheonette here, a bakery there, a computer store. But soon you realize something is amiss. Terribly amiss. Your eyes sweep the streetscape, and you can hardly believe it. There's no Starbucks. +In its manifest destiny to caffeinate America, Starbucks appears to have missed downtown Clifton. More curiously, when local officials and developers recently informed the Seattle-based company of its apparent oversight and invited them to open a cafe as part of a renovation project, Starbucks said thanks, but no thanks. +Clifton became a suburban downtown Starbucks didn't want, and another front in the emerging class conflict over coffee. +Like other close-in suburbs, Clifton is a crossroads of industrial grit and middle class comfort. Its face to the world is a neon clock atop the Tick Tock Diner on Route 3 imploring drivers to 'Eat Heavy.' Clifton has its share of commuter subdivisions, but its downtown sits between Passaic and Paterson, whose South American, Asian and Arab immigrants are moving into what was once a white-ethnic city. Last year, the City Council declared English the government's official language. +The redevelopment is a bid 'to distinguish ourselves,' said Patrick DeLora Jr., president of DeLuxe Cleaners, who heads the downtown improvement group. 'We're trying to get more of an upscale image.' +That's why Clifton decided it needed a good $3.30 caramel macchiato. +But a Starbucks on Main Avenue would violate a largely unrecognized maxim that all suburban downtowns are divided into two groups: those with a profusion of expensive coffee places, and those with a profusion of expensive nail salons. +Clifton has many nail shops, three near where developers hoped Starbucks would sprout. At Choice Nails, Suzanne Garretson had her hand in a Heat 'N Dry, after having her nails tipped and wrapped for $45. 'Their coffee is expensive,' she said of Starbucks. 'You go in, and they say, do you want this one or that one or this flavor or that flavor, and I am, like, just give me the basic black.' Her nails were basic brown. +Starbucks is to basic coffee what tips and wraps are to straight-up nail polish. +The company's mission is 'inspiring and nurturing the human spirit,' said Arthur Rubinfeld, senior vice president for store development at Starbucks, which has 2,200 stores in North America. 'People connect to coffee,' he said. 'Coffee is the facilitator, the glue that holds people together.' +Downtown Clifton is going to have to make do with regular old paste. While Starbucks has stores in other faded downtowns -- and its coffee is sold at Barnes & Noble, including the one on Route 3 -- Mr. Rubinfeld said Main Avenue 'didn't have the retail synergy to merit the investment we make in our stores.' +Somehow, the people of Clifton are holding up. A few were drowning their sorrows the other day with 85-cent coffee at the Clifton Spa, a luncheonette with Formica counters and swivel stools that has found synergy on Main Avenue for 60 years. +'It is a certain type of person who likes Starbucks,' said Albina DeLora, Mr. DeLora's mother, who has seen how the other half drinks at the Starbucks in nearby Montclair. 'They like to sit and read their journals and do their laptops and have their coffee. You have to have a laptop.' +Mr. Rubinfeld says Starbucks has brought people in suburbs together, declaring, 'We are the front porch of America.' +The Clifton Spa must be the tailgate. 'The backbone of America,' Richard Schiro, a security guard, calls it. 'A man making $300 a week could come in here and feel comfortable. If they go to Starbucks, they have to first look and see if they can afford it.' +Not at the Clifton Spa. Scott Reid, the owner, will keep a tab running for you and, as for nurturing the human spirit, when there's a rare lull in banter at the counter, the TV in the corner with rabbit-ear antennae gets pretty good reception. +Oh, yes. Just like at Starbucks, the Spa's customers love the coffee and, Mr. Reid said, 'they squawk about' the price." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Roller Coaster That Killed 2 Had Past Problems, Riders Report +The roller coaster that malfunctioned Saturday night, killing a 39-year-old woman and her 8-year-old daughter, had had previous problems, according to earlier passengers of the ride who have now reported the incidents to New Jersey investigators. +William M. Connolly, director of the state's Division of Codes and Standards, said that the past riders of the coaster, Wild Wonder, in Ocean City, N.J., reported experiences he characterized today as 'unusual' and 'out of the ordinary.' +Mr. Connolly declined to provide any details of the passengers' reports while his staff is investigating and attempting to confirm them. But, he said, some of the reported problems, if true, would have required the owner and operator of the ride, Gillian's Wonderland Pier, to notify his office, which oversees ride safety at amusement parks and carnivals. +'Some of the things we're hearing could have conceivably been reported,' he said at a news conference here. Cautioning reporters that he was speaking hypothetically, Mr. Connolly said any mechanical problems that forced the roller coaster to be shut down during operation should have been reported to his office. But he declined to say whether any of the previous passengers had described a shutdown or any operational problem similar to the two malfunctions Saturday night that prompted the roller coaster to stop near the top of a 41-foot ascent and then slide rapidly backward down the slope into a car waiting in the loading platform. +The two victims, Kimberly Bailey, of Pomona, N.Y., and her daughter, Jessica, were hurled from their car around 10 P.M. as the coaster whipped into a 90-degree curve in front of the platform. Both apparently struck the ride's support columns and then fell to the ground. +The ride's safety bars are only designed to stop riders from being thrust forward out of the cars, not backward, Mr. Connolly said. He said his staff is considering requiring that all roller coasters in the state be equipped with seat belts to prevent an ejection in either direction. +Mr. Connolly said he hoped to have a report on the cause of accident prepared by late this week. Two ride inspectors and an engineer are conducting the investigation and focusing now on mechanical failure, he said. He said they are exploring four possible factors: design defect, equipment defect, maintenance problems or operator error. +The ride was manufactured by an Italian company, Zamperla Inc., and erected in late spring at Gillian's Wonderland, Mr. Connolly said. It was inspected during construction in April and again in June, he said. Inspectors examined it again when it opened on July 1. Gov. Christine Todd Whitman attended opening-day ceremonies and pressed the button to start its first trip. State inspectors examined the ride again on July 17 and July 21, Mr. Connolly said. +No problems were detected, he said. He said the ride was inspected three times in its first month of operation because all new rides are routinely inspected frequently. +Zamperla, which has an office in Parsippany, N.J., issued a statement today saying it was 'deeply saddened by the accident.' +Mr. Connolly said Gillian's had not informed his office of any problems with the ride during its eight weeks of operation. The state requires amusement park operators to file so-called incident reports for a wide range of problems on rides. The authorities must be told immediately, via hot line, about any passenger who suffers a broken bone, a dislocation or other serious injury requiring immediate medical treatment. Less serious injuries must be reported within 24 hours via fax. A third type of report covers just about any other type of incident -- from a vomiting passenger to malfunctioning equipment. It must be filed within 10 days. +Since the accident, Mr. Connolly said his staff has interviewed 20 to 30 people, including some eyewitnesses to the deaths. Mr. Connolly declined to say which type of report would have covered the earlier incidents. +The president of the amusement park, Jay Gillian, did not return calls left at his office late this afternoon. +The two pieces of equipment that failed Saturday operated independently, Mr. Connolly said. The coaster is pulled up by a chain driven by an electrical motor and attached to a cog beneath the coaster. At the peak of the ascent, the cog and chain disengage and gravity takes over. On Saturday, the cog and chain came apart too early, he said. Normally, the coaster's antirollback braking system would have prevented the backward slide, he said. Braking devices should have pressed against the rails beneath the cars, stopping them. 'Something went very wrong with it,' Mr. Connolly said." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Brakes in Fatal Bus Crash Called Beyond Repair +The brakes of the tour bus that crashed here Sunday were probably worn beyond repair and would not have passed inspection, a Federal safety official said today. +Six people died and dozens more were hurt when the bus hurtled out of control down a steep, treacherous two-lane road here in rural Sussex County. The driver, Robert Campbell, 60 years old, of Brooklyn, who was critically injured in the wreck, has told investigators that the brakes gave out. +The Federal official, Frank Ghiorsi, the Northeast regional director for highways for the National Transportation Safety Board, said the brakes on each of the four wheels were seriously worn or were missing parts. ""If this bus was pulled over for inspection and examined, it would have been pulled out of service,"" he added. +Officials are expected to remove the air-brake system on Wednesday for reconstruction as the safety board's inquiry continues. +Federal officials said yesterday that the safety board had subpoenaed thye bus company's records from Mr. Campbell's daughter. +Mr. Ghiorsi refused to confirm officially that brake failure was the cause of the crash, but his comments underscored the hypothesis of police officials and other investigators. +Meanwhile, Gov. Jim Florio pledged $250,000 in state money today to design and build a turnaround, commonly called a jug handle, at the crest of the hill where the bus crashed Sunday. +The turnaround, Mr. Florio said, would permit drivers to check their brakes and allow unauthorized vehicles -- those over four tons -- to turn back before encountering what Transportation Commissioner Thomas Downs called ""perhaps the steepest public-access road in the state."" +The crash occurred near a notoriously dangerous intersection at the bottom of a 15-degree descent along Route 515. Officials have said there was no record that Mr. Campbell's bus had been inspected or registered with New York State or with the Interstate Commerce Commission, as required. +The Sussex County Prosecutor, Dennis O'Leary, declined to say whether he would charge Mr. Campbell with any criminal violations. +""He could face anything from violation of a local ordinance to aggravated manslaughter,"" said Mr. O'Leary, who defined the possible manslaughter charge as wanton disregard of human life. But he emphasized that he was not predicting whether charges might be filed. +The safety board said it had sent samples of Mr. Campbell's blood to an independent laboratory in Salt Lake City. Some tests will come back quickly, Mr. O'Leary said, and other more sophisticated tests could take several weeks. +The police have said that Mr. Campbell told them his brakes failed as his bus descended the two-lane county road that runs north through dense woods to the Orange County, N.Y., border. +Jean Marie Poole, the chief investigator here for the safety board, said that Mr. Campbell had described in detail how the brake system lost air at the top of the hill. ""People reported seeing his brake lights going on and off,"" she said. ""But he watched his pressure gauge go down. He knew it was his problem."" +Mrs. Poole said the driver reported traveling at 20 to 25 miles an hour at the top of the hill. ""He tried to downshift,"" she said Mr. Campbell had told authorities. ""Neighbors said they heard gears grinding."" Florio Visits Accident Site +But the bus, carrying four dozen people from Brooklyn to a daylong outing at Action Park in nearby Vernon Valley, raced out of control, struck two cars and caught fire. Five aboard died at the scene, and another bus passenger died later in University Hospital in Newark. +The Vernon Township Police and some survivors reported initially that the bus rolled over four times before stopping, but Ms. Poole said today that she was not certain of this. +It appeared, she said, that the bus might have fallen on its right side and flipped upright as it slammed into a car and a guard rail. +Governor Florio announced the road improvement plans this afternoon after he and other state officials toured the accident site and spoke with local officials. Mr. Florio said the money would come from a Transportation Department discretionary fund as the first step in what township and county authorities hope will be a more ambitious project of their own to improve safety on Route 515. +Sussex County has had plans to improve the road for seven or eight years, said David Mortimer, a freeholder. But in the wake of the accident, he said, the repairs, projected to cost $10 million, had ""risen to the top"" of high-priority projects that have so far gone unfinanced. New Signs Posted +The Township Committee convened Monday in a session called before the crash to review the county engineer's plans, which include relatively inexpensive proposals for new signs -- some of which have just been installed -- and road widening and straightening. +Mr. West said the township eventually hoped to build a pull-off lane to allow vehicles to test their brakes.

In the last year, infants waiting for placement in foster homes spent an average of two months in the hospital, while those who were returned to their parents stayed an average of two weeks in the hospital after they were cleared for medical discharge. +The court order, signed by Judge Alfred J. Lechner Jr., is the result of an agreement between the Whitman administration and the Association to Benefit Children, a child advocacy organization in New York City that sued the state in August on behalf of the infants. +Gretchen Buchenholz, executive director of the association, said the consent decree would allow her organization to closely monitor the state's efforts to move the infants, commonly known as 'boarder babies,' out of hospitals. +'We really believe that this will work,' said Ms. Buchenholz, who filed a similar lawsuit against New York City in 1986, which led to a Federal court order requiring the city to move boarder babies from hospitals within seven days. 'We believe that this agreement is going to result in these babies getting the nurturing, the love and the opportunities that they are entitled to.' +In September, Gov. Christine Todd Whitman asked the state's Human Services Commissioner, William Waldman, to immediately draw up a plan to shorten the hospital stay of boarder babies, after The New York Times reported that New Jersey was the only state in the country where babies were languishing in hospitals. +'New Jersey does not take lightly the responsibility of finding homes for these children, and we will continue doing everything we can to accomplish that goal,' Governor Whitman said. +Despite efforts by hospitals, such as University Hospital in Newark, to provide a special unit for boarder babies, child development experts say that busy hospital staff members cannot replace parents or other primary caregivers, particularly in the early months of a child's life. +'Children who are raised without primary caretakers tend to be retarded in all areas of their development,' said Dr. Leo Kron, a child psychiatrist and senior attending physician at St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital Center in New York City. 'This includes their language development, even their physical growth, their motor development and of course, most importantly, their social development. +'The damage to those children is compounded as they grow older, as society pays the cost of their arrested development, social maladjustment and aggressive behavior.' +An average of 54 infants a month lived in New Jersey hospitals during the last year while under the care of state child welfare officials. Many of the babies had been exposed while in the womb to drugs or the virus that causes AIDS. +New Jersey officials acknowledged that they had not recruited enough foster families to care for the infants. They also said they did not have enough caseworkers to give families support services and to determine, in a timely manner, whether the infants should go home to their parents or relatives. +At Governor Whitman's request, state officials outlined a new plan in September to assign additional caseworkers to address the problem. State officials also promised to run a series of public service announcements to help recruit more foster families, and to hire nonprofit social service agencies to find foster homes and give mothers prenatal care and other support services. +Mr. Waldman said the State Division of Youth and Family Services, an agency in his department, has been 'working diligently to reduce the length of time children remain in hospital nurseries instead of in the arms of consistent caregivers. The fact that our agency has made a strong effort -- and some progress -- resulted in us being able to dispose of this lawsuit.' +While the Whitman administration has already taken some steps to help move infants more quickly from hospitals, the consent decree outlines specific goals and insures that the state's progress will be closely monitored by the association. +For example, the Division of Youth must respond within 24 hours after hospital officials notify the state that an infant is at risk of becoming a boarder baby. The state must also provide the association with weekly reports on the status of boarder babies and their average length of stay. +'We have won a victory for the neediest and most vulnerable New Jersey citizens,' said Lawrence S. Lustberg, a Newark lawyer who represented the Association to Benefit Children in court. 'We are confident that the result is not going to be further litigation. It is going to be progress toward ending the boarder baby problem.' +Before the court order in New York City, boarder babies stayed in city hospitals for weeks and sometimes months. The average length of stay is now three and a half days, city officials said, and slightly longer for children with special needs." +False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,"Permission to Board? Absolutely, Please!; Bigger Crowds Wanted For Battleship's Big Guns +When the battleship New Jersey was formally welcomed to its permanent berth along the Delaware River here on a bright October day in 2001, it was billed as a ship-turned-museum that would promote maritime history, excite veterans and military buffs and provide a much-needed boost to downtrodden Camden. +But after winning a competition with Bayonne to become home to the ship, Camden is finding that keeping the New Jersey afloat financially may be harder than getting it here in the first place. +The Battleship New Jersey Memorial and Museum operated on a $1.2 million deficit in 2003, its directors said recently. About 192,000 people visited the ship last year, compared with the year before, when about 218,000 went aboard to examine the Navy's most decorated battleship. The budget problems last fall forced the Home Port Alliance, the nonprofit organization that runs the battleship tours and museum, to lay off 12 of its 90 workers. +And because the cold weather this winter has kept many tourists away, officials decided to reduce access to the ship to four days a week -- Friday through Monday -- until March 1. +The majestic 45,000-ton vessel, about 3 football fields long, 108 feet wide and 11 stories high, has legions of fans. Its return to New Jersey, across the river from the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard, where it was built in 1942, was an emotional event for the tens of thousands of sailors and officers who served on it during three major wars and other battles. +But its problems are a reminder that not every retired Navy ship can rival the Intrepid in New York as a tourist attraction. +Jeff Nilsson, executive director of the Historic Naval Ships Association, said that there were about 122 retired military ships on display throughout the nation and that attendance for them varied. The Intrepid had about 650,000 visitors in 2002, while the frigate Constellation in Baltimore had about 100,000. How each one fares as a tourist attraction varies depending on the ship's size, its place in military history, its current location and the strength of the organization running it, he said. +As a museum and memorial, the New Jersey is not in danger of going under financially, its directors said, but even its supporters admit these are rough times for the fledgling operation. +'It's unfortunate that it's not getting the visitors,' said State Assemblyman Joseph Azzolina, a retired Navy captain who served on the New Jersey in the 1980's. 'But it's a great ship, and they're doing a great job with it.' +Many of those involved with the battleship say the museum and memorial is merely experiencing the growing pains of any new attraction. Legislators are trying to secure state funding for the ship, and museum directors are working to attract more private financing and to come up with more ideas to raise revenue. +'I don't think it's any different than anybody expected,' said Assemblyman Louis Greenwald, a Camden County Democrat who is trying to persuade other legislators to help the museum with a state grant of $1 million or more. 'It's difficult for any entity or museum to be self-sustaining, especially at first.' +The New Jersey was one of four Iowa-Class battleships constructed during World War II. With hulls more than a foot thick, the battleships were built to 'keep floating and keep fighting.' Workers at the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard, in a competitive mood because many of them lived in the state for which the ship would be named, made sure the New Jersey was almost four inches longer than the other Iowa battleships. +The New Jersey is equipped with nine 16-inch guns that could fire shells weighing as much as a Volkswagen Beetle up to 23 miles. During its first 19 months on active duty in the Pacific during World War II, the ship steamed more than 200,000 miles and shot down 20 enemy aircraft, including five in one day. +The New Jersey also took part in the Korean War and the Vietnam War and last saw active duty in 1983 in the Mediterranean off Beirut before being decommissioned in 1990. +The Navy chose to let the ship retire here rather than in Bayonne because of what they saw as Camden's growing waterfront cultural and tourist attractions. Indeed, local leaders saw the ship as a major player in the renaissance of a depressed city. In the last few years, developers have turned Camden's waterfront into a place more families want to visit. Besides the battleship, there are Campbell's Field, home to the minor league Camden Riversharks; the Tweeter Center, an open-air concert stage; and the New Jersey State Aquarium, which is about to be privatized and expanded to double its size. +A cable car system is being constructed that will carry people between Philadelphia and Camden's waterfront, and the former RCA Victor building near the waterfront is being turned into 341 luxury loft apartments. +But while the aquarium, for example, continues to be a big family draw, with about a half million visitors a year, the battleship had fewer than half as many last year. +Mr. Nilsson said the battleship's low attendance so early in its development was not that worrisome. +'Is this unusual? No, not at all,' he said. 'Forget that it's a museum or a ship. The first three years of any business are going to be rough.' +But others say that retired warships can face severe problems as tourist attractions. +'You're trying to keep up something that the Navy got rid of because they couldn't keep it up,' said Jack Green, a public affairs officer at the Naval Historical Center in Washington. 'It's a lot of work and expense to keep up a ship. You no longer have 2,000 sailors on your work force to holystone the wooden decks,' he said, referring to the need to keep the decks polished. +Troy Collins, the Home Port Alliance's executive director, said that while attendance for the ship's tours might be down, its other revenue producers performed well last year. The ship had a 25 percent increase in attendance at special events, receptions and other ceremonies booked onboard and overnight encampments, which are open to Scout groups, he said. +The alliance also plans to attract more visitors this year by adding a Navy Seahawk seaplane motion simulator that can seat 13 people and a self-guided tour route with more interactive displays, he said. +Mr. Collins and the board of directors know that one big challenge is to raise more money for operating costs. Utilities alone cost $360,000 a year, he said. And the ship will need to set aside even more by building an endowment for future expenses, such as the day not too many years from now when the battleship will have to be dry-docked for major maintenance. +'It's no different than what happens with most new museums,' Mr. Collins said. 'This is the toughest period that we'll ever have. The early days of juggling have caught up with us, and we haven't solidified our future. We're trying to get ourselves funds to keep us going through July.' +Mr. Collins said the battleship's endowment should be $3 million to $4 million. That means beginning a campaign now to find donors, including corporate sponsors and foundations. Its supporters say the state also needs to help out this year, especially after a $7.2 million grant that they had been counting on last year did not come through because of the state budget crisis.'We don't want to be dependent on anybody's money for long,' Mr. Collins said.

Last week, the New Jersey Division of Youth and Family Services received a tip that Ms. Walker was abusing her children, leading the police to the cabin in Hopatcong where they found the children -- ages 8, 9, 11 and 13 -- nearly emaciated and with 'substantial malnutrition,' Mr. Fitzgibbons said. +The four children, along with their 18-year-old sister, who the authorities say has no connection with the charges, have been taken from Ms. Walker and are now living with family members out of the area, Mr. Fitzgibbons said. +'They are improving quite a bit -- it's noticeable,' he said. +Late last year, Ms. Walker tried to escape an abusive husband in Brooklyn by moving into a two-story, four-bedroom log cabin on the shores of Lake Hopatcong, said Lisa Peluso-Guice, whose property includes the cabin as well as her family home. Ms. Peluso-Guice said she agreed to let Ms. Walker and her children live in the cabin after a minister at the Times Square Church in Manhattan, to which both women belonged, called and requested her help. +At first, the family seemed 'perfectly nice,' Ms. Peluso-Guice said. Ms. Walker's children would often come by to play ball with her own two children. +But in January, the church called Ms. Walker, telling her that the cabin was only a temporary residence and that she would have to move out by May, Ms. Peluso-Guice said. The church called again in April, she said, but even by the middle of May, Ms. Walker and her children had still not left. +By June, Ms. Peluso-Guice said, she had asked a lawyer to file eviction papers against Ms. Walker. Around this time, she saw the children, and while 'they looked a little thin,' she said, they were hardly emaciated. +Still, the children looked skinny enough that Ms. Peluso-Guice said she went to the store and bought boxes of food for the family. +Then, two weeks ago, the cabin's hot water heater blew up in the middle of the night, Ms. Peluso-Guice said, and a panicked Ms. Walker called her husband, Brad Guice, at 2 a.m. to come fix it. When Ms. Walker opened the door, she looked 'really bad, really skinny,' Mr. Guice said. +The next day, Mr. Guice said he went to check on the water heater and saw Ms. Walker's children. 'The kids looked incredibly skinny,' he said. 'Immediately, I knew there was something wrong. It was obvious she had gone too far.' +Mr. Guice then went to the store and returned with more food. He also called his lawyer -- the same one who was working to evict Ms. Walker -- and asked him to call state officials from youth and family services. +The officials visited the house on July 25, Mr. Fitzgibbons said, and Ms. Walker was arrested the same day. +'Their faces were emaciated,' Mr. Guice said of the children. 'The boys' arms were just not there almost.' +Mr. Guice said he had confronted Ms. Walker, told her that she was abusing her own children, and asked her what she thought she was doing. +Her only answer, he said, was that God would take care of them." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"A Warning, and a Response +After prosecutors distributed fliers noting the presence of a convicted child killer in South River, N.J., the man, Glenn H.

She escaped when he went to hide her car. He plead guilty to a lesser charge when she refused to testify. +In 1983, in Virginia, Barker was convicted of the murder of a 12-year-old girl who had been spending the night at the house of a woman he was seeing. Her body was never found. He was sentenced to prison for 18 years, and was released on parole in 1992. +GLENN H. BARKER'S RESPONSE +To start with let me make it perfectly clear that no one in this community or any other community has anything to fear about me. I have no desire for your children, wives, husbands, pets, or anything else that you have. All I want is a normal life without the community being scared for no reason by the powers that are. +Yes I have stopped to help female motorist. I have also helped males, couples (giving them jumps to their batteries, etc.), and even helped a neighbor put a starter on his van. But there is NO ONE person male or female that can say I was in any way suggestive or out of the way in my dealing with them and I have NEVER asked them if they needed a ride.

Jon S. Corzine's speech before a joint session of the New Jersey Legislature on Friday and thinking that you had stumbled into a shareholders' meeting. +More than in any other speech since his election last year, Mr. Corzine drew on his Wall Street experience as he opened a special summer session devoted to lowering property taxes. +Both in tone and in vocabulary -- Mr. Corzine, using a chief executive's lexicon, referred to the 'monetization' of some state assets and 'free cash flow' -- the governor seemed more confident than ever about the possibility of using solutions forged in the private sector to address problems with public fiscal policy. +To some State House veterans, Mr. Corzine -- first elected to public office only six years ago -- still seems more comfortable in the skin of a Wall Streeter than wearing the mantle of a State Street politician. +'The comment has been made that Corzine is more like a C.E.O. and less like a politician,' said Philip Fang, a portfolio manager for Lord Abbett & Company. 'You can see that in pretty much all of the speech.' +Part of that observation, which is not wholly unexpected, can probably be explained by simple human nature. Before turning to politics, Mr. Corzine worked at Goldman Sachs for nearly a quarter-century, working his way up to co-chairman, and his managerial compass could almost certainly be expected to point toward lessons learned there. +But perhaps some of Mr. Corzine's comfort with business concepts can also be traced to a mistrust of the largely ineffective techniques that have been used by politicians in Trenton for years to deal with issues like high property taxes. +Mr. Corzine succinctly referred to his disdain for those techniques near the start of his speech when he spoke of the importance of changing the way the state subsidizes municipalities and schools. +'Our business model for delivering and paying for government and school services is broken,' he said, striking a decidedly corporate tone at the beginning of his 30-minute address on Friday. 'If we were a business, we'd be bankrupt.' +From there, he described an ambitious program in which he proposed that the state use $250 million to create incentives for municipalities to consolidate services, study whether to sell or lease state assets like the New Jersey Turnpike and impose a 4 percent limit on year-to-year increases in property tax bills that are, on average, the highest in the nation. +Those changes, especially the proposal to encourage more efficiency through consolidation, are the kind of practices generally favored by business leaders. +'I think the government adopting methods and methodologies that have been used by corporate America makes some good sense,' said Assemblyman Gary S. Schaer, a Democrat of Bergen County. +Mr. Schaer, who is an investment consultant and a vice president at Ryan Beck & Co., said that he heard distinct echoes of Mr. Corzine's business background in the address. +'I hear Wall Street throughout,' he said. 'And I've got to tell you: I work on Wall Street, and I think it's refreshing. I think it's something we need to hear more of.' +Others noted that Mr. Corzine painted a compelling portrait of how fixing property taxes could lead to improvements in other areas of the state's fiscal policy. +'There's a businesslike characteristic that is very thoughtful, understated and logical and rational in drawing a picture that everything is connected to everything,' said former Gov. Jim Florio. 'And, if you sign on to the proposition that our budgetary problems are severe and they won't get easier, then you have to appreciate the fact the governor is correct that property tax is related to that.' +Other observers were struck by the way Mr. Corzine incorporated many ideas that have been put forth by Republicans in Trenton like overhauling the pension system, changing the formula used to calculate school financing and scaling back benefits for state employees. +'I joked to myself that this is Jon Corzine going to China,' said David P. Rebovich, managing director of the Institute for New Jersey Politics at Rider University. 'A guy who, at the federal level, has always been called a very liberal Democrat that here is really speaking the language of public administration and applying corporate management principles to the public sector to free up dollars.' +Mr. Rebovich said Mr. Corzine also made it clear that like any business leader, he would hold lawmakers accountable should they not make what he feels is sufficient progress in fixing the tax problem. +Mr. Corzine warned that if the Legislature did not move forward on substantial improvements to the tax system, he would ask that a measure calling for a constitutional convention be placed on a ballot in November 2007. +Left unspoken, however, was the suggestion that if lawmakers failed to address the tax dilemma, the makeup of the Legislature would almost certainly undergo a drastic change in that same election. +Mr. Rebovich said he was struck by a line in Mr. Corzine's speech that prefaced the constitutional convention scenario with the words, 'If we fail ' +'If we fail -- what does that say?' Mr. Rebovich asked. 'It says: 'Guys, if we don't follow through on what I've laid out here today, that's going to be a failure. I'm going to regard it as that, I'm going to call it that and the public will call it that.'

Rinfret, the Republican candidate, compared Gov. Mario M. Cuomo's budget gimmickry to breaking up the family furniture to feed the fireplace. +The furniture in the Executive Mansion and Executive Chamber is apparently still intact. But how about selling an expressway or some state jails complete with prisoners and guards? +The Governor is selling the maximum-security state prison at Attica to the Urban Development Corporation, which is headed by his friend and big contributor, Vincent Tese, for $200 million. The corporation, which was created to build low-cost housing but has been building jails in recent years, borrowed the money, so the state's taxpayers will have to pay back $745 million in principal and interest over the next 30 years. Attica was the scene of a riot in 1971 that left 43 prisoners and guards dead. +This is the latest sale of the state's capital assets to help balance the state budget. Earlier, the state sold the Cross Westchester Expressway for $20 million to the State Thruway Authority, which will finance that borrowing with road-side restaurant revenues. It also sold the Eastern Correctional Facility in Ulster County to the development corporation for $80 million. The Expressway transfer took place on April Fools' Day. +The State Comptroller, Edward V. Regan, said the Cuomo fiscal policy is ""even worse"" than Mr. Rinfret's description. ""He's busting up the house, not just the furniture, for firewood,"" Mr. Regan said. He added that the grandchild generation will be paying ""billions and billions"" in interest to pay off current deficits. Impeachment Suggested +Gauging the anger of protesters is becoming a new science at Connecticut's Capitol. Over the last week, state employees enraged about layoffs called Gov. Lowell P. Weicker Jr. a ""chicken"" and urged his prompt lynching. People upset about cuts in the state's higher-education budget were more circumspect, suggesting only Mr. Weicker's impeachment. +The 5,000 parochial school students who complained about proposed cuts in school-bus financing were the most vocal, chanting, pep-rally style: ""Weicker's a wimp."" When the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Richard J. Balducci, climbed on top of a car to address them, he was beaned with an acorn. Termination Candidate +Plagued by internal dissension and caught in one of the first power struggles between the new City Council and the Mayor, New York City's Voter Assistance Commission may be put out of business as the Dinkins administration looks in every nook and cranny to save money. +""It's a candidate for termination,"" said City Councilman Herbert Berman, chairman of the Council Finance Committee. +Deputy Mayor Bill Lynch acknowledged that ""there is some question whether we can afford to put our resources"" in the commission and that in a budget crisis ""you have to make these kind of choices."" Trying to preempt criticism, he noted that the Mayor would normally be the major beneficiary of voter-registration drives among minorities. +But, there's more to it than that. Mr. Lynch would like to set up voter-registration programs under his control within several departments dealing with the public like the Human Resources Administration. But, the Council, more oriented to political parties, wants the commission activities folded into the party-controlled Board of Elections. +Adding to these external threats are the internal squabbles that have cost the three-year-old agency its first two executive directors. The post is vacant now. +Finally, the State Ethics Commission is deciding whether the chairman of the Voter Assistance Commission, Charles Hughes, the municipal workers union leader, can hold both the unpaid commission post and a $12,500 job with the New York City Alcoholic Beverage Control Board. The Division of Newark +The recent reapportionment of New Jersey legislative districts angered not only the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People but also a number of Hispanic groups that are considering court challenges as well. +Arthur Baer, a lawyer with the Puerto Rican Legal Defense and Education Fund, said his group objected to the decision by the reapportionment commission to divide the northern part of Newark into two separate districts. In effect, Mr. Baer said, the power of Hispanic voters will be diluted to about 24 percent of the electorate in the new districts.

A second man, accused of hiding Mr. Saleh, was also arrested. +A Federal complaint said that Mr. Saleh had discussed ways of getting cars for the bombings without being detected, and that he had been with other suspects in a Queens bomb factory -- being bugged by the F.B.I. -- within a day of a June 24 raid, which prosecutors say smashed the scheme. +""He was right in the middle of the group,"" said Joseph R. Borrelli, the New York City Chief of Detectives, who joined F.B.I. officials at a news conference yesterday in Newark. +Mr. Saleh was tackled by a member of an F.B.I. team that had infiltrated the sleepy Sea Wolf Inn in North Wildwood, N.J., on a strip of motels and guest houses packed with vacationing families, according to officials and eyewitness accounts. +The snatched child, who was not identified but was described as a member of Mr. Saleh's party, was not hurt, said James Esposito, the F.B.I. agent in charge of the Newark office. It is not clear from the official accounts why Mr. Saleh picked up the boy. Mr. Saleh's lawyer later said in court that Mr. Saleh had suffered ""bruises, abrasions and contusions"" in the arrest. +Mr. Saleh, a chunky, clean-shaven man of medium height whose address was given as 7 Alan Terrace, Jersey City, appeared in Federal Court in Camden yesterday afternoon, handcuffed and wearing a white T-shirt, khaki cutoffs and black plastic sandals. Through his lawyer, he offered no objection to extradition to New York City but otherwise made no statement. He was held without bail pending a hearing, which is expected next week in Manhattan. +The man arrested with him, Ashraf Mohammed, 31, of 83 Bleecker Street, Jersey City, was similarly dressed and handcuffed and was ordered held until a bail hearing next week. He was charged with knowingly concealing Mr. Saleh from arrest, including planning with him to flee to Florida, but F.B.I. officials said he was not considered a suspect in the bombing plot. +By holding a news conference to announce the arrest, the F.B.I. made clear it was elated by the development. But authorities declined to say much about where they believed Mr. Saleh fit into the case. +One investigator said Mr. Saleh was believed to have an Egyptian military background that may have included experience with explosives. Mentioned on Hidden Tapes +Another said that as investigators monitored the plot through hidden tape recorders and video cameras in the days before the June 24 raid, they heard references to Mr. Saleh as a welder who was expected back in New York City from a marine welding job in the Caribbean. That, they said, made them think that Mr. Saleh might be important in the construction of a bomb, a theory that was not fully tested before the arrests. +But investigators said that Mr. Saleh had been expected in the Jamaica garage at the time of the raid and that when he was not with five others arrested there, he was avidly hunted. Three other suspects were arrested elsewhere about the same time and two others were later arrested, one last week, while Mr. Saleh was listed as a fugitive. +In court yesterday he was described as a legal immigrant who entered the country about 10 years ago and supported himself selling goods at flea markets, making less than $10,000 last year. +An assistant United States Attorney, Jeremy D. Frey, told Judge Robert B. Kugler that Mr. Saleh had been convicted of a felony charge involving heroin in Detroit in 1988 and had received a five-year sentence. But Mr. Frey said that records available yesterday did not detail the circumstances of the conviction or how much time Mr. Saleh may have served in prison. He said, however, that a felony charge suggested more than just possession and probably at least intent to distribute or sell. Suspected in Drug Dealing +Investigators said last week that several defendants in the case were suspected of involvement in drug trafficking. But they said it did not appear to be a way of raising money for the bombing schemes. +Officials yesterday guarded the secret of how they had tracked Mr. Saleh to the North Wildwood motel. Court papers said agents learned that Mr. Saleh and his son and Mr. Mohammed and his wife had checked into the motel on Wednesday, Mr. Mohammed's wife signing in under ""an assumed Hispanic name."" +Eight days earlier on July 13, the complaint said, Mr. Mohammed had told the F.B.I. he did not know where Mr. Saleh was and had promised to advise agents if he found out. +Ruth Wolf, who with her husband, Woody, has owned the hotel for 19 years, rented the group apartment No. 4 in the upstairs rear, a suite that sleeps eight for $475 a week. Outside the unit was a shuffleboard court, picnic tables and a gas grill and lounge chairs. Cooking Steaks and Hot Dogs +Mrs. Wolf said the guests wanted to stay for some time but were told that it was reserved and they could only have it until Saturday. They paid a partial rate based on three days, she said. +The incident began Thursday night shortly after 10 o'clock, sometime after the Saleh and Mohammed families began cooking steaks and hot dogs on an outdoor grill and invited the Wolfs to join them. +Frank Davis, 21, of Medford, N.J., staying at the motel in the rear, said he had seen a man with a gun standing by the ice machine. He asked him what was happening and the man told him to leave the area. +Suddenly, Mr. Davis said, a van pulled up with seven or eight armed men who leaped over a small wall and raided the apartment. +Some of the agents were in summer shorts and casual clothes and others were in suits, he said. They took the families out and put them in separate cars. +A 12-year-old visitor, Jeff DuPuis of Big Flats, N.Y., near Corning, who has been coming to the motel for five years said he was out on the front porch when he saw a man run around the side of the building carrying a child and run across the street, followed by the F.B.I. agents who tackled the man." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Toxic Levels For an Aquifer Worry E.P.A. +LEAD: The Ciba-Geigy Corporation, a chemical manufacturer with a legacy of pollution cases at its sites here and in Rhode Island and upstate New York, has created an underground lake of contamination next to the Toms River that Federal officials say will require 30 years to remove. +The Ciba-Geigy Corporation, a chemical manufacturer with a legacy of pollution cases at its sites here and in Rhode Island and upstate New York, has created an underground lake of contamination next to the Toms River that Federal officials say will require 30 years to remove. +The plume of poisons, about a mile square and between 30 and 100 feet deep, will have to be pumped at a rate of about 3 million gallons a day for three decades before the aquifer is cleansed to drinking-water purity, said Fred Luckey, a geologist with the Federal Environmental Protection Agency team that has been drafting a cleanup plan. +The E.P.A. says it has found 95 chemicals and metals in the plume, including cancer-causing agents like benzene, arsenic and chloroform. Most cling to subsurface soils and must be dissolved by repeatedly sucking ground water over them during the extraction process, Mr. Luckey said. Removing more water each day would not quicken the pace of the cleansing. Seepage From Toxic Pits +'Each contaminant has its own rate to desorb from the soil, depending on the water temperature, water pressure and acidity,' Mr. Luckey said. 'After you exceed a certain pumping rate, you won't get more contaminants out of the aquifer.' +Seepage from toxic-waste burial pits and lagoons near Ciba-Geigy's dye and plastics factories here created the plume, Federal and state studies have found. Over the years, it has spread beyond the company's 1,400-acre site and now flows beneath a residential neighborhood and the adjacent Toms River, about eight miles inland of Barnegat Bay, a heavily developed section of the Intracoastal Waterway. +A decade ago, neighborhood children swam, fished and floated on inner tubes on sections of the river that flow through Winding River Park next to the Ciba-Geigy property. Now, according to an E.P.A. study released last April, a river-bank marsh and river sediments are contaminated. Fishing, swimming or inhaling evaporating chemicals in the marsh all pose health threats, the report said. 'No swimming' signs are posted in the park. +Anxieties about cancer and sagging sales of homes are common in the neighborhood. +'Houses stay on the market for a year,' said a woman on Sun Valley Road who is suffering from breast cancer. 'Can I in clear conscience sell my house to a young family?' +The drinking water for the neighborhood is not affected, officials say, because the nearest town well is about half a mile northeast of the Ciba-Geigy plume. But some private wells used for watering lawns have been shut down. +Public acceptance of the company seems to have soured beyond this neighborhood. 'I think they've run out of time - people don't trust Ciba-Geigy anymore,' said Wayne Cimorelli, who lives near the river's mouth on Barnegat Bay. In Trenton, political support for the company has eroded steadily since the State Environmental Protection Department fined it $1.65 million in 1985 for disposing of 14,000 drums of hazardous waste in its nonhazardous-waste landfill. +In the last year, the state has refused to let the company build a $90 million pharmaceutical plant and has ordered it to shut by the end of 1991 a discharge pipe that has poured treated industrial effluent into the Atlantic since 1966. Ciba-Geigy and two of its environmental officials have been indicted on state charges of illegal dumping in its landfills from 1974 to 1984 and falsifying reports to the state. A trial is pending. 'Some Mistakes' +'Some mistakes were made in the past, but we deny there was any criminal wrongdoing,' a company spokesman, Glenn Ruskin, said of the indictment. +Since the pharmaceutical plant rejection, Ciba-Geigy has announced plans to stop all chemical and plastics manufacturing here by December 1991 and cut its work force, once the largest in Ocean County, to 340 from 600. +In the last three years, Ciba-Geigy has shut and torn down similar river-bank factories in Cranston, R.I., and Glens Falls, N.Y. Environmental officials say both sites are contaminated with toxic wastes, some of which have reached the Pawtuxet River in Cranston and the Hudson River in Glens Falls. Cleanups at each site have been ordered upon completion of studies of the degree of soil and ground-water contamination. +A similar study was finished here in April after four years of work. Recently the E.P.A. started planning for the design and construction of the extraction system that is to cleanse the aquifer. Officials estimated that it would be at least three more years before the actual pumping begins. Drinking-Water Standards +New Jersey has mandated that the aquifer be pumped out until it matches state drinking-water standards. The extracted water must be treated by Ciba-Giegy to levels of purity roughly similar to those standards before it is released into the Toms River through a new pipe. +For instance, the carcinogen benzene, measuring an average of 223 parts per billion in the aquifer, must be withdrawn and treated until the benzene level in both the aquifer and the discharged water is 1 part per billion. +Brian Steelman, Ciba-Geigy's director of environmental technology, said in a recent telephone interview that the company could meet state mandates for all the contaminants except a group of salts that are considerably less harmful than toxic chemicals. They include calcium, sulfates, magnesium and chloride. +New Jersey's allowable level of these salts in drinking water is 500 parts per million. But the state is requiring Ciba-Geigy to treat extracted ground water to a level of 45 parts per million, roughly the average level of the salts now in the Toms River. +Mr. Steelman complained that the level was too strict and could be attained only through construction of a complex treatment system using a process called reverse osmosis. This would cost the company $80 million to $100 million, he said. +That amount is already included in the E.P.A's projected cost of $164.5 million for the 30-year cleanup. But in a recent meeting with local environmental opponents of Ciba-Geigy, E.P.A. officials seemed to hedge on requiring reverse osmosis. That set off an uproar. +'They're looking for the cheapest way out,' said Frank D. Livelli, a retired chemist and a founder of the Save Our Ocean Committee. 'They polluted. Let them pay for it.'" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Trenton at Work; Senator Seizes Chance to Revise Image +The stream of supplicants and nervous politicians never seems to stop flowing through the offices of John A. Lynch, the second most powerful politician in New Jersey and the man who recently managed to reshape this capital's political agenda. +If, as Mayor Edward I. Koch used to say, a leader can be defined by what he is not, Mr. Lynch, the president of the New Jersey Senate, has skillfully used Gov. Jim Florio in recent weeks to define himself as a Democrat in tune with middle-class voters. +While many Democrats regarded the public reaction against last year's tax increases as devastating to their chances of re-election, the 52-year-old Senator, who was often a controversial figure as mayor of New Brunswick, has treated it as an opportunity. +Since November, Mr. Lynch has relentlessly mustered the support of the state's municipal leaders and fellow Democrats in the Senate to put pressure on Mr. Florio and the State Assembly to revise the way more than a billion dollars in revenues from increased income taxes would be spent. +Only by shifting $360 million from school aid to property-tax relief and putting a cap on what school districts could spend, Mr. Lynch and his allies argued, could the Democrats help middle-class voters who had seen their property taxes double in the last decade. It was, they said, a matter of political survival. +""It serves no useful purpose to dig in your heels and defend mistakes,"" Mr. Lynch said on Wednesday, munching on a turkey sandwich in his statehouse office during a break between visitors and phone calls. ""The Florio administration's philosophy was correct. But they made many mistakes."" +It was also Mr. Lynch's Senate that passed a bill to weaken Mr. Florio's ban on assault rifles, a bill Mr. Florio's aides say he is most likely to veto. +And in the coming weeks, Mr. Lynch says he plans to criticize major portions of Mr. Florio's proposed budgets and fight to repeal the Governor's extension of the sales tax to paper products, to many people the most onerous symbol of the $2.8 billion in new taxes pressed through the Legislature last year. Such voters are essential to retaining Democratic majorities in both houses in elections this November. Mr. Lynch and the Speaker of the Assembly, Joseph P. Doria, supported Mr. Florio's proposals at the time they were made. +Mr. Lynch's recent independence and visibility has spawned speculation that he is planning to run for governor, perhaps against Mr. Florio in 1993, an idea that Mr. Lynch vehemently denies. At the very least, politicians here say, he has significantly altered the political landscape from last year, when Mr. Florio led and Democratic legislators followed. +""I see Lynch emerging as an alternative power center to Florio,"" said Stephen A. Salmore, a professor at the Eagleton Institute at Rutgers University and a Republican consultant. ""Democrats have had support in the state when they broaden their base to include the suburbs. One of the problems for Florio has been that he gave the impression he was narrowing the base to urban areas."" Career Mirrors Father's +Friends say that Mr. Lynch's career echoes that of his father, John A. Lynch Sr., who also served as mayor of New Brunswick and president of the Senate, and who saw the Republicans take control of the Senate the year after he stepped down as the Senate leader. +Mr. Lynch, whose compact, fireplug frame is often adorned with double-breasted suits, monogrammed shirts and gold cuff links emblazoned with the scales of justice, is known here for his intelligence, his long days, his powers of concentration. +When Mr. Florio's fortunes sagged last fall and the reaction to the tax package resulted in the near defeat of Senator Bill Bradley, friends say, Mr. Lynch resolved not to let control of the Senate be lost without a fight. Mr. Lynch grew increasingly disturbed by reports from municipalities that unless spending by school districts were limited, increases in school aid would not reduce property taxes, as the Governor had promised. +In November, Mr. Lynch told Mr. Florio that he would press to shift the school money to property-tax relief, and place tighter caps on school districts' spending. His power to influence the Governor, who at the time was opposed to the change, in large part came from the support he received from mayors around the state, as well as some administration officials who agreed with him. +""I felt we had missed the chance, the one time in a generation for real property-tax relief,"" Mr. Lynch recalled. +His fighting to have school aid shifted to municipal property-tax relief, he said, stems from his 12 years as mayor of New Brunswick, when he saw the devastating effects of high property taxes on cities that are struggling to draw investment and residents. +Mr. Lynch is credited with the revitalization of downtown New Brunswick, done with the help of the Johnson & Johnson Corporation and Rutgers University, which are both in the city. +The father of two children in their 20's from a marriage that ended in divorce, Mr. Lynch remarried four years ago. He and his wife are expecting a baby in August. +But among the factors which could limit Mr. Lynch's ambitions, some Democrats say, is a corruption scandal that tarnished two top members of Mr. Lynch's administration in New Brunswick and resulted in the conviction and imprisonment of his former city law director, Gilbert Nelson, in 1987. Criticism in Hometown Paper +Mr. Lynch has also been the subject of critical articles in his hometown newspaper, The Home News, questioning whether he and associates benefited from his city's redevelopment. On a number of occasions, Mr. Lynch has lost his temper with reporters who he said have treated him unfairly. +Mr. Lynch's aides point out that Mr. Lynch has never been charged with wrongdoing. And he denies that he benefited from his tenure as mayor. +Politicians in Trenton, including those who have opposed him, generally praise Mr. Lynch. They describe him as cautious, private, and careful not to speak out on an issue until he has thoroughly studied it. +""Anybody who is the mayor of a large city is going to have enemies,"" said James P. Fox, Mr. Florio's deputy chief of staff. ""The bottom line is that he turned New Brunswick around, from a dying city to one of the premier small cities in the northeast."" +On Wednesday, Mr. Lynch's schedule was packed with visitors trying to gain his support for lung-transplant operations to new construction. His visitors and callers included the Commissioner of Insurance, a representative of the Casino Control Commission and a host of Senators fearful of the effects of newly drawn district lines. +The coming weeks, Mr. Lynch said, will be dominated by Mr. Florio's proposed budget for fiscal 1992, one that Mr. Lynch said, troubles him. Although Mr. Lynch had no new proposals to fill an estimated budget gap of $800 million, he said he had plenty of criticisms. +Mr. Lynch called a proposal to raise $400 million by selling roads to the New Jersey Turnpike Authority ""smoke and mirrors,"" which would most likely result in more toll roads. And, he said, the senate will raise questions about Mr. Florio's proposal not to comply with contracts with state workers by refusing to grant scheduled pay increases. +""I have a great number of reservations about the state not fulfilling a contract,"" Mr. Lynch said. ""I have a great deal of difficulty with that.""" +False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,"Camden's Renaissance Is Hailed, and Doubted +In his 37 years living here, Samuel Benson has seen the best and worst of Camden: its lively, industrial past, its bleak, abandoned present; the countless, unfulfilled promises of renewal and rebirth. +While government officials hail the two-year-old New Jersey State Aquarium as proof of Camden's sputtering recovery, and wait in hope for an agreement that could bring the Philadelphia 76ers basketball team to this city of 85,000, Mr. Benson and others in his North Camden neighborhood remain skeptical. If the Sixers really come to Camden this time, if the aquarium does spur growth along the waterfront, Mr. Benson asked, what does that mean for him? +""It will not help the residents of Camden,"" Mr. Benson said. ""I don't see tourists from other parts of the country coming in to spend big bucks here, like they say. I don't see it."" +Is Camden recovering? Some people here believe so. Others say they see no proof, and worry that any turnaround will resemble the experience of Atlantic City, and be limited to a strip of land along the waterfront. The question of Camden's fate is an important one, because for years the city has stood out as a pocket of poverty in one of the nation's most prosperous states. Staggering Unemployment +The bleak statistics are easy to find. More than half the children in Camden live below the Federal poverty level. Unemployment is a staggering 22 percent. +Camden has no movie theaters and few supermarkets, but it does have the county sewage plant and an imposing brown-brick prison near the library downtown. On some blocks half the houses have crumbled or collapsed. Lot after vacant lot holds charred debris, much of it left from deliberately set fires. +A depleted tax base has left Camden painfully dependent upon state aid. Each year the city carries a deficit -- $14 million this year -- and each year city officials go hat in hand to Trenton seeking relief, said Gary Warden, the city's senior budget examiner. +""We say we're going to give them the keys to the city or something until they finally say okay and give us the money,"" he said. At least that is what has happened for the last four years under Gov. Jim Florio, a product of the Camden Democratic machine. The election of Gov.-Elect Christine Todd Whitman has left city officials anxious. +""It's a very tenuous situation,"" Mr. Warden said. Hope Goes On +But hope exists in Camden, spurred by movement after years of stagnation and decay. If nothing else, the aquarium proved a point many doubted: visitors will come to Camden, if only to its waterfront. The aquarium drew 1.2 million visitors in its first year, which ended in February 1993. Attendance has fallen significantly this year, but aquarium officials say the drop was expected after a better-than-hoped-for beginning. They also say a new coral reef tank will lure tourists back. +There are other signs of resurgence. Ferry service between Philadelphia and Camden has returned after a 40-year absence. And at the end of Market Street overlooking the Delaware River stands a sprightly new $65 million office complex for Martin Marietta, the company that purchased G.E. Aerospace. The project added no new jobs to the area, but maintained momentum on the waterfront and, more important, kept the company from leaving Camden, said John T. Shannon, executive vice president of the Coopers Ferry Development Association, the agency overseeing waterfront development. +And, as always in Camden, optimistic plans for other projects abound: a $20 million waterfront headquarters for the Delaware River Port Authority, an expanded medical center, a Sony/PACE Music amphitheater along the river. +Not even the apparent faltering of another long-planned office building for a new Campbell Soup Company headquarters can dampen spirits, especially since Campbell officials say they remain committed to the city with or without this particular building. Opportunity Seen +""Despite all the bleak statistics, which cannot be denied, there exists a real opportunity in this city,"" said Mr. Shannon, who actually lives in Camden, unlike many police officers, firefighters, city department heads and others planning the city's revival. +""In my mind, the city has already bottomed out and is on its way back."" +Camden officials said that Harold Katz, the 76ers' owner, may be serious about this offer to move the team -- he has publicly discussed the idea in the past -- in part because of the aquarium's early success. +Under the deal offered by Governor Florio, the Sixers would occupy an $80 million, 18,000-seat arena on a site near the Benjamin Franklin Bridge. Governor Florio, who negotiated the deal, has said the arena would be financed by bond sales, with the debt paid with revenues from ticket sales, parking and concessions. But Mrs. Whitman said that before she would approve any deal she wants assurances that taxpayers would not be required to foot the bill if revenues fall short of projections. +Jeffrey Nash, a member of the County Board of Freeholders, said the arena would create 900 construction jobs and between 500 and 900 other permanent jobs. The Spectrum, the team's current home in Philadelphia, employs fewer than 150 people full-time, a spokesman for the Philadelphia arena said. Nonbinding Payments +The arena would be exempt from property taxes, and would likely contribute about $1 million to the $101 million city budget, said Mr. Warden, the budget examiner. Such payments in lieu of taxes are nonbinding and can be reduced or eliminated. The aquarium promised to pay the city $2.2 million in fiscal year 1993, but paid only $1.5 million. +""It's very subjective,"" Mr. Warden said. +Proponents say the arena, like the aquarium and the waterfront in general, would contribute to something more important and less tangible than the city budget -- the perception that Camden is a safe and desirable place to do business. Without that, businesses will not move to Camden. And without businesses to create jobs and expand the tax base, Camden will not recover, Mr. Nash said. +""The waterfront is a great marketing tool, if nothing else,"" he said. +But many of those who live and work in North Camden are not buying that argument. 'Not for Us' +""You mean the circus on the waterfront?"" said Ernest Boyd of the North Camden Land Trust, a nonprofit organization rehabilitating homes in that section of the city. ""It's not for us."" +Getting to the aquarium from Philadelphia is almost easier than getting there from North Camden, a neighborhood severed from the rest of the city by the highway feeding the Ben Franklin Bridge. Most visitors glimpse North Camden only from high above the bridge. +""One of the ways it's been sold, and the way the Sixers will be sold, is, 'Don't worry -- you can get there without having to touch Camden,' "" Mr. Boyd said. +Still, Mr. Boyd said he would not object to a Sixers arena. +""It's fine as long as it doesn't divert money from the neighborhoods."" +But the perception among many Camden residents is that projects like the aquarium, which was paid for with state funds, do divert resources away from the neighborhoods. Lillian Ubarry, a community organizer with Concerned Citizens of North Camden, said Camden needs to have its crumbling homes rebuilt, its tattered streets fixed, its sewer system replaced, its schools improved and its police department expanded. An ambitious, 15-year, $100 million North Camden development plan by the group addresses these problems and has been approved by the City Council. Now it needs financing, Ms. Ubarry said. Other Uses Stressed +""We always felt the aquarium was just a big spending of money that could have been used for other things,"" she said. +In North Camden, the median annual income is $11,000 and more than 57 percent of the residents live in poverty. Two-thirds receive some type of public assistance. More than anything, the people of North Camden need jobs, said Mangaliso Davis, one of Camden's most vocal advocates. +""We don't need a Sony amphitheater with seats at $25 a pop,"" he said. ""If Sony wants to do something, let them put a factory in here."" +Floyd T. Caston, the city's outspoken affirmative action director, estimated that only 25 percent of construction jobs for the aquarium project were held by minorities, even though the city is 81 percent black and Hispanic. About half the aquarium's 279 full and part-time jobs are held by Camden residents, aquarium officials said. Mr. Caston said most of those are low-level jobs, and most were handed out as political patronage. +""To get something, you had to be connected,"" he said. ""If this arena gets off the ground, it will be the same thing."" Revitalization Plan +To that complaint, state and county officials offer the Camden Initiative, a multi-faceted revitalization plan that state and county officials say will create three industrial parks and lure businesses to Camden. +The Delaware River Port Authority has approved a $3 million grant for land acquisition for a new industrial park in South Camden, and the county has committed to pay for much of a second, Mr. Nash said. But much of the money for the third park, and other parts of the initiative, will fall to the state. And a spokesman for Mrs. Whitman said that while the Governor-elect supports the plan, she is concerned about finding money for it. +Mr. Benson, who moved to Camden in 1957 to work at a food store, said he has seen too many other plans come and go -- from the City Within a City program in the 1960's to the promised Veterans Administration hospital that was killed by the Reagan administration -- to get excited about this one. +""A political gimmick,"" he said. ""I don't see it in my lifetime, Camden coming around. Maybe in my grandkids' lifetime, hopefully. But I think I'll be long gone if it happens.""" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"On Sunday; White, Male, Middle-Aged And Wavering +Every Tuesday afternoon, about 100 business executives gather at the Knights of Columbus hall in this prosperous suburb. The group is middle-aged, all white, virtually all men (""A few ladies,"" says Steven Salaway), with impressive resumes -- vice presidents, division managers, systems analysts. Most are in the $70,000 to $120,000 salary range. +As a group they are not political, but individually, they tend to vote Republican. These are the out-of-work Republicans. It is why they meet, to share job leads. Some, like Mr. Salaway (bank vice president, $86,000) have been out two years. Many Americans who voted for President Bush in 1988 are now jobless. Unemployment is 9.8 percent in New Jersey, (a 10-year high); 9.4 in Michigan; 8.9 in California; 8.6 in Florida, all states that went for Mr. Bush. +While Republicans in Houston cheered family values, these people fretted over house payments and health insurance. Many would not give their names because they now call themselves consultants and don't want employers knowing it's a fancy title for jobless. Mr. Salaway has been set back 10 years financially. When William Graham visited his son at camp, the 11-year-old asked, ""Dad, you found a job?"" The father said, ""Not yet."" And the boy asked, ""Dad, we in the poorhouse yet?"" +To businessmen like these, perhaps the single most surreal moment of the Republican convention -- even more surreal than Marilyn Quayle bashing draft dodgers -- was the Secretary of Labor saying, ""Are we better off than four years ago? Of course we are!"" +The men at the Knights hall (they use it free) are not dinosaurs, not steelworkers or coal miners. They are management information systems specialists, fellows who know how to maximize performance from a computer system. If the economy were growing, they'd be in the thick of it. Most have been laid off during ""downsizing"" -- the lopping off of entire corporate divisions. Nothing personal. As their job searches stretch on, they view the economy as a downward spiral of shrinking companies going through round after round of layoffs to stay solvent. +Inflation's upward spiral helped unseat a President in 1980 and these people have that spiraling feeling again. ""I'm diehard Republican,"" said Mr. Salaway. ""I almost voted for a Democrat once -- I can't remember who."" If the election were tomorrow, he said that he could not vote for Mr. Bush and that he had several Republican friends who felt the same. ""Bush pretended the economy was fine too long."" +""I'm definitely not voting for Bush,"" said Ted Sogrotzki, another longtime Reagan-Bush man. He came to the meeting like he used to dress for work, in gray suit and carrying a brief case. He's ""90 percent sure"" he'll vote for Bill Clinton. He found nothing new in the President's speech of a lifetime. +The economy is moving them. Walter Mazuryk voted for Mr. Bush in '88; he's moved to undecided. ""I'm afraid to vote for a Democrat but I'm left with no choice."" Alex Diamant couldn't get enthusiastic about anyone in '88 and didn't vote; he's moved to Mr. Clinton. +They care about family values, but few look to politicians for them. It is partly that the press has ballyhooed Gennifer and Jennifer to the point that they seem to cancel each other out. But beyond that, does anyone believe a national politician has made family a top priority? ""For national businessmen and politicians, family is secondary,"" said Allan Karan. ""Work is primary."" Who spends more time raising their children, unwed mothers or the Vice President of the United States? ""Family values is a smokescreen to hide the economy,"" says Mr. Mazuryk. +Weekly meetings are so impressive, they're painful to watch. Most participants arrive 15 minutes early. They bring job leads that didn't work for them, but may help others. Six new members introduced themselves; three had been vice presidents. They sat in rows of 10 so job leads could be efficiently distributed and collated. Free computer courses were announced in subjects like AS400/RPG3. A speaker lectured on interviewing techniques, and they took notes. They make you realize how much work unemployment is. +Each week they survey themselves. ""I'd like a count of how many had interviews this week for a real job, not a recruiter or agency?"" Sixteen. ""How many went on a second interview?"" Five. ""How many offers?"" Zero. +""It's scary how fast we're growing,"" said Mr. Mazuryk. ""Each month we get 20 to 30 new members and maybe six people find a job."" Afterward, they raced off. Jim Matulevich, a systems manager, had to get to a $5-an-hour liquor store job. Many will stay with Mr. Bush, but a lot are ready to hold their noses and vote Democrat and this looks to be an election that will be decided by the nose-holders." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,"'Jim' and 'Chuck' Letters: Trenton Foes Call a Truce +After weeks of trading potshots over taxes, the state budget and education financing, Gov. Jim Florio and the Republican leadership of the new Legislature have agreed to take a ride together, a bipartisan, whistle-stop train ride across part of New Jersey and on to Washington to fight for mass-transit money. +The truce of sorts was forged last week in an exchange of cordial and carefully crafted letters between Mr. Florio and the Republicans. First, Mr. Florio sent identical letters to Assembly Speaker Garabed (Chuck) Haytaian and State Senate President Donald T. DiFrancesco in which he raised concerns over proposed cuts in Federal mass-transit aid. Mr. Florio also invited the Republicans to accompany him to Washington ""to present the state's case to Congress."" +""In past years, our state's Congressional delegation has worked aggressively in a bipartisan way to prevent reductions in mass-transit aid,"" Mr. Florio wrote. ""I am asking you to join me in the same kind of coalition to benefit our state's residents."" +He also asked the Legislature to consider adopting a resolution urging stable Federal financing. +""I anticipate going to Washington in the next few weeks to testify before Congress on this matter, and I hope you will join me,"" the letter ended. +Mr. Haytaian responded the next day in a one-page typewritten letter that began, ""Dear Governor Florio."" The formal greeting was crossed out, however, and substituted with a more personal handwritten, ""Dear Jim."" +""I will be happy to accompany you to Washington to press for our fair share of Federal funds,"" wrote Mr. Haytaian, who had also raised the idea of taking the train to Washington. ""We could board in Newark. This would give us a chance to talk to commuters about this and other matters of mutual concern. +""The journey would also give us a long overdue opportunity to discuss other issues of important to the people of New Jersey in the spirit of bipartisan cooperation."" +Mr. Haytaian signed the letter ""Chuck."" +""Maybe some people didn't think I would take him up on it,"" Mr. Haytaian said today. ""But there's nothing sinister intended. This is something that we both can agree on, and maybe if we can go down to Washington together and show some bipartisanism, we may influence Congress to change its mind."" +A spokesman for Mr. Florio said the Governor intended to take up the offer. +The tenor of the letters and the swift and friendly responses is a marked shift from the tough talk and gamesmanship that has dominated the first month of political affairs in Trenton under the Democratic Governor and the Republican leadership of the Legislature. The 205th Legislature opened on Jan. 14 with Mr. Florio and the legislative leaders' pledging cooperation. But the fighting quickly heated up. +The Republicans took control of the Senate and the Assembly after many Democrats were defeated in the elections in November.

So far, 85 people have been killed here this year, police statistics show, compared with 83 in 2003 and 68 in 2002. Since Thanksgiving Day, there have been eight murders, the police say, a per capita rate that outpaced New York City during the same period. +Members of the clergy, community leaders and friends and relatives of the crime victims said Mr. James, who has been mayor since 1986, had not done enough to address the violence. +Russell Yancey, 45, an unemployed computer technician who attended the rally, said he had lost faith in the city's leader, after more than 15 years of support. +'Sharpe James is more concerned with himself than with his city,' Mr. Yancey said. 'He is out of touch with the people who put him in office.' +The killings on Tuesday occurred within a two-mile section of the city's South and West Wards. The violence started around 2:30 p.m. Sutton Davis, 22, was shot five times on South 15th Street, the police said; about two hours later, Robert Brown, 26, was gunned down on Clinton Avenue; and Nyru Simmonds, 20, was shot later that night on Elizabeth Avenue near Meeker Avenue, and died at University Hospital in Newark at 1 a.m., according to the police. The fourth victim, Ronald Logan, 20, was shot about 8:30 p.m. in the hallway of an apartment at 416 Irvine Turner Boulevard. +On Nov. 26, the bodies of three men and a woman were found lying face down, side by side, with coats over their heads, in a vacant lot near a church in the South Ward. Each had been shot in the head, the police said. +At the rally and in telephone interviews, many residents said that the eight murders, coming so close together, had brought concerns about the city's priorities to the surface. +While Newark is enjoying a mild revival, with property values on the rise, clergy members and residents questioned whether neighborhood crime-fighting had been pushed aside by downtown building projects, like a proposed $310 million hockey arena. The city seems more concerned with newcomers, they said, than residents. +'They ignore the plight of the population for the sake of buildings that will be used mostly for people from outside,' said the Rev. Raul Comesanas, the pastor St. Thomas Aquinas Roman Catholic Church, next to the vacant lot in the South Ward where the four bodies had been dumped. +Salaam Ismial, chairman of the National United Youth Council, a youth advocacy organization, agreed. 'We're tired,' he said. 'There are black people suffering and the only thing the mayor can do is talk about downtown.' +Mayor James declined requests for interviews. He issued a statement praising the heroism of the police and denouncing the killings. +After the rally, the deputy mayor, Ras Baraka, said it was unfair to blame city government for problems that had their roots in poverty, unemployment and other social ills. 'The mayor could come to every meeting in the city,' he said. 'That doesn't mean people will stop shooting each other.' +The police director, Anthony Ambrose, said at a news conference on Wednesday that overall crime was down 9 percent from 2003, and that most residents did not have to fear violence, because it typically involved criminals attacking criminals. Mr. James has said that the four people shot on Tuesday were involved in gangs. +The police said that three arrests were made Tuesday night. Two of the suspects -- Tony Johnson, 19, and an unidentified 17-year-old -- were arrested after a chase that led the police to Elizabeth and ended with the suspects' car crashing into several parked vehicles on North and Newark Avenues. A third suspect, Noel Riddick, 26, was arrested when he walked into University Hospital with a gunshot wound and was recognized by an officer who had exchanged gunfire with one of the suspects. Despite the arrests, Stephen Adubato Sr., a local power broker and founder of the North Ward Center, a social services agency, said that the entire city had been shocked. 'We're turning the corner economically, so it would seem that this is a time where we would be safer since there is more reason to protect what we have,' he said. 'But instead, there's this.' +Friends of at least one of the victims also took issue with the mayor's charge that everyone involved in the shootings had ties to gangs. Nichelle Woolridge, 27, Robert Brown's fiancée, said that Mr. Brown, an aspiring rapper, only wanted to make music and get married. +Kent Stokes, 33, a friend of Mr. Brown's who said he was with him when he died, criticized the mayor and the police for assuming that the victims were criminals. 'You see a cop get killed and they find a suspect,' he said. 'But they can't find who killed my brother.'" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,"After Bruising Campaign and Close Vote, Healy Becomes Jersey City's Mayor +Ten days after voters went to the polls, a councilman was declared the mayor of New Jersey's second-largest city Friday in a decision delayed by absentee and provisional ballots. +The councilman, Jerramiah T. Healy, who is also a former municipal court chief judge, won the special election with 17,401 votes, beating his closest opponent, Assemblyman Louis M. Manzo, by 2,242 votes. Moments after the county clerk certified the election Friday, Mr. Healy, who was one of 11 candidates, was sworn in as acting mayor in a ceremony held in the old Jersey City courthouse. +'We are going to achieve the heights that Jersey City is destined to achieve,' Mr. Healy said as he stood in front of an audience that included Senator Jon Corzine, Congressman Robert Menendez and the State Senate president, Richard J. Codey, who will become New Jersey's acting governor on Tuesday. 'And we will achieve as we all work together with the 240,000 people of this city and all the people of Hudson County.' +A special election was held after Glenn D. Cunningham, who was elected mayor in 2001, died of a heart attack in May. Mr. Healy will serve out the remainder of Mr. Cunningham's term, which ends in June, and said that he planned to run for a full four-year term in the election to be held in May. +'I am certain that Glenn is looking down, not just on me but on everyone here in this room, everyone assembled and all of these elected officials, and I'm sure he is smiling because I believe that Glenn would be happy to see this and see all of this unity here in Hudson County,' Mr. Healy said. +The mayoral campaign was marked by feisty exchanges and the tearing down of opponents' banners by campaign aides. In one campaign attack, a photo was posted on the Internet showing Mr. Healy naked, unconscious and slumped on his front porch after a night of drinking. +'It's time to put the backbiting and infighting of the past year in Jersey City and Hudson County behind us,' Mr. Healy said. 'It's time for all of us to stand together and unite.' +Mr. Manzo conceded the race Friday in a letter he sent to Mr. Healy. 'As your challenger, I hope that I was able to bring some of our city's most pressing issues to the forefront, and I trust that they will be considered by your administration,' Mr. Manzo wrote. +Jersey City has experienced impressive business and residential growth in the last several years, partly because the Sept. 11 terror attack led many Manhattan businesses to relocate across the Hudson River. +Mr. Healy said he would focus his efforts on hiring more police officers, filling the city's many potholes and working on ways to get guns off the streets." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Pension Funds In New Jersey Face Shortfall +Just as New Jersey has patched up its worst fiscal mess ever, the state is staring at another: next year an enormous payment for its shrinking pension funds will come due. +The total will approach $1 billion, by the estimates of some state officials and consultants, most of it in new spending. John E. McCormac, the state treasurer, said the shortfall would be 'much worse' than he expected just a few months ago, although he said he would not know what new contributions would be needed until the most recent investment returns were analyzed. +Soon, Mr. McCormac said, the state will be able to calculate the damage done so far by a bold plan in the 1990's that borrowed money to finance the funds with stock market profits. +The dismay and blame surrounding the pension funds are directed mostly at former Gov. Christie Whitman, who now more than ever is accused of mortgaging the state's future to pay for the tax cuts that propelled her to national prominence. +'You think what's going on in the business world is bad?' said Judith C. Cambria, a fiscal policy specialist who wrote a report on the state's fiscal trends over the last decade. 'The last administration used every trick in the book.' +While criticisms of her administration have mounted with New Jersey's escalating budget problems, Mrs. Whitman has continued to defend her fiscal management. +'So much of it has gotten personal,' she said in a recent interview with The New York Times. +More recently, as the stock market has stagnated, pension funds all over the nation have lost money. But in New Jersey, said Tom Vincz, a spokesman for the Treasury Department, 'a perfect storm is coming up now.' +The market plunge has cost New Jersey's funds $22 billion over the last two years. The state will have to resume regular contributions, to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars, after skipping payments for several years. And pension costs were bumped up after the State Legislature granted 9 percent increases to teachers and retired state workers before last year's elections. +What's more, the state must pay $160 million in the current fiscal year, which began July 1, on the $2.75 billion in bonds that the state issued to replenish the funds in 1997. The payment schedule was set up to start with small amounts and balloon later. +The idea five years ago was to wipe out a pension-fund deficit by floating bonds, invest the assets in a galloping stock market and make more on the investments than it cost to pay off the bonds. The plan was purposely overfunded so that the state could skip payments for several years. +The returns, however, have not covered the 7.64 percent annual interest on the bonds -- although they might over the life of the bonds. +'I believe it was in essence arbitrage, and I don't think the government should engage in arbitrage,' said State Senator Leonard Lance, who as a member of the General Assembly was one of the few Republicans to oppose Governor Whitman's proposal. 'Unfortunately, I believe I've been proved right on this.' +Even before Gov. James E. McGreevey took office in January, he blamed his Republican predecessors for the growing budget gap. But the pension funds were not even a factor for the 2003 fiscal year, because by law no contribution was scheduled until 2004. +While the pension funds have lost value, there was no way to anticipate the market losses of the spring and summer. +When Moody's Investors Service downgraded New Jersey's bonds in March, it predicted that in 2004 the state would have to start making pension payments of 'several hundred million dollars per year.' Tim Blake, the author of the report, said he had since heard estimates of $1 billion. +Over the last two years, the state's investment portfolio, most of which is pension funds, declined from $94 billion to $72 billion. About 60 percent of the portfolio is invested in stocks. +Ms. Cambria, the fiscal policy specialist, said that while the recent losses were alarming, 'It's absolutely essential that we realize we are seeing the consequences of irresponsible action over a long period of years.' +In the 1990's, the state's long-term debt rose to $15.7 billion from $4 billion. Of that, $2.75 billion came from the 1997 pension bond sale, the state's largest debt offering ever. +The bond issue allowed Mrs. Whitman to balance her election-year budget by drastically cutting the state's required contribution to the pension funds. The problem was 'unfunded liabilities' -- that is, money that was supposed to be in the pension funds and was not -- dating to 1994, when the state started deferring its payments. +When the governor proposed borrowing to raise the funds and investing the money, the idea was wildly unpopular. No state had ever issued bonds to cover pension costs, and even the Republican chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee, Robert E. Littell, pronounced it a 'wacko idea.' +But Mrs. Whitman prevailed, and critics were shushed when the bonds sold in an eager market at an average interest rate of 7.64 percent, instead of the 7.78 percent that the state had expected. +Over the next two years, the pension system's returns averaged 19.3 percent. But by Jan. 1, 2002, the total return had dropped to 7 percent, and losses since then have depressed returns further. +McGreevey administration officials acknowledge that the funds have performed worse than most public pension plans in recent months. Mr. McCormac, the state treasurer, said New Jersey was one of just two states that use in-house employees to manage all investments. But he dismissed reports that some administration officials were considering hiring private brokerage firms to manage the funds. +'That's not even on our radar screen,' Mr. McCormac said." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Horses, Yes, But Please, No Ranches +LEAD: These are nervous times for Bob and Mary Sargent and other horse owners scattered around this hilly country township. +These are nervous times for Bob and Mary Sargent and other horse owners scattered around this hilly country township. +Abandoning years of indifference toward backyard stables and corrals, the local government now wants to limit the number of horses that residents can keep. +Officials say they do not want to crack down on people who own only a few horses but to impose controls on large ranches. There is a small but growing number of complaints about horses damaging property, they say. +Backyard horsemen, long accustomed to a laissez-faire approach to herd sizes, have banded together in protest and enlisted the aid of the New Jersey Horse Council, the industry's lobbyist and booster. Proposed Ordinance +For years West Milford - with 78 square miles, 26,000 people and long stretches of unbroken woodland 35 miles northwest of midtown Manhattan - has been a horseman's haven. People squeezed from other towns by anti-horse laws were content here because the township ignored its law permitting only one horse per acre. +A proposal now before the Township Council would require two acres for one horse and an acre for each additional one. Ownership of 15 horses would constitute a commercial ranch, requiring 25 acres. Any land sloping more than 20 degrees cannot be included in the allowable acreage. About 70 families would be affected by the proposal. +Such squabbles are increasing throughout the state, New Jersey officials say. And they are bracing for new battles as more people move into open spaces. The state's rapidly growing horse industry - now valued at $4 billion - is vying for the same land. About 4,500 new farms opened statewide between 1977 and 1987, compared to 1,500 in the prior decade. +Horsemen who love West Milford for its wooded solitude and miles of meandering riding trails are indignant at the proposed ordinance. Big Sky Stables +Take the Sargents, who have an immaculate stable, three corrals and a riding ring behind their log house. They have 15 horses on 16 acres. Mr. Sargent scoffs at his property being called a commercial ranch under the proposal. On a spread they call Big Sky Stables, he and his wife say they have raised horses strictly as pets and companions, with no financial incentive, for 15 years, since their daughter Ann Marie was 12. Attachments run deep, they say. 'Horses all have personalities, just like people,' said Mrs. Sargent. 'There's timid. There's aggressive. There's mischievous. There's playful. You just can't throw them away like an old toy.' +Ada Erik has been shoeing horses for families here for 20 years. She has 16 horses on two acres. As she spread hay bales around her corral the other day, Ms. Erik talked of animals as if they were grandchildren. 'My Oldest Boy' +'Babe, here, I bought her at an auction at a meat market,' Ms. Erik said about a mare poking around her tractor. 'She's given me three babies, Sonya and Honey and Beggar. And Bobo, up there by the tree, he's 27. He's my oldest boy. He was once a championship show horse.' +Ms. Erik argues that anyone with one acre of land should be allowed to keep any number of horses. +Owners have also complained about harassment. Hay sheds are being more carefully checked for permits than in the past, they say. +Mayor Stewart C. Perry, however, said complaints have been made about horses poking their heads over fences and eating shrubs. He said a summer camp's lake was closed because of runoff from manure. +He denied that officials want to free horse acreage for new homes. The only goal, he said, is controlling large ranches. The horsemen scoff. +'They're trying to restrict ownership of horses to rich individuals,' argued Thomas Parisi, whose family of five has five horses on four sloping acres. He is worried about losing his barn, he said. The proposed law says barns must be 100 feet from all property lines. Mr. Parisi's rectangular plot is only 180 feet wide. +Since the New Jersey Horse Council stepped into the squabble, Mayor Perry has started talking about compromising and possibly allowing existing farms to keep one horse per acre and more than one per acre on five acres or more. +'Acreage is not a factor,' said Rod MacDougall, the Horse Council's zoning and legislative chairman and chief mediator here. 'The key is how well the farm and horse is maintained.'" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Debate Rages Over Site Proposed for Incinerator +After 10 years of looking for a place to put a major hazardous-waste incinerator and backing away in the face of local opposition across the state, New Jersey has been pushed onto a potential site on the Arthur Kill. The state now finds itself in a fight, not only with local officials and residents, but with New York City, just across the brackish waterway. +The city, with New York State providing some legal support, has joined Linden and a group of its residents in opposing the incinerator, which New Jersey officials say could solve a major problem if it meets strict environmental criteria. +Lawyers fighting the incinerator, which would be capable of processing 60,000 tons of hazardous waste annually, say it will increase air pollution over the Arthur Kill and increase health hazards for Linden and Staten Island residents as well as for herons and other species that nest on Pralls Island, just to the east. They also argue that the site does not meet the criteria established by the state. +The lawyer for the company that wants to build the incinerator contends that the site meets the state's criteria and argues that the incinerator would not add significantly to existing air-quality problems or threaten wildlife. +Before it was offered the Linden site, the state's Hazardous Waste Siting Commission examined 11 others, principally in rural areas with low population densities. It eliminated all of them because of environmental problems and local political opposition. +The Linden site, which is on a 143-acre tract owned by the GAF Corporation in the middle of one of the state's heaviest concentrations of industrial plants, came in unexpectedly in 1988. +GAF, which ceased chemical manufacturing operations in Linden in April 1991, offered to build the incinerator on about 20 acres of its land. The company has signed a consent order with the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection and Energy to clean up the heavily polluted site. +The GAF plan has advanced further than any other. After accepting the proposal for study, the commission sent it, along with a detailed criticism by Linden officials, to Administrative Law Judge Joseph Lavery, who conducted a series of hearings beginning last September. Final briefs are in, and Judge Lavery is expected to make a recommendation on the proposal to the commission next month. The commission would then have 30 days to render a final decision. +If the GAF proposal is accepted, something that both sides predict, it will mean the triumph of the ""brown fields"" theory of site selection, which favors putting the incinerator in an already polluted industrial area, over the ""green fields"" theory, which supports locating it in a sparsely populated area. +David Samson, the lawyer for GAF, said New Jersey has a serious need for the incinerator, ""and the point is, if this site doesn't satisfy the need then no site will satisfy it."" +But Sandra T. Ayres, the lawyer for Linden, objected to the idea that its residents should have to bear the impact of another industrial operation. ""The idea seems to be that if they don't like the increased risk they should move away,"" she said. ""That says the victims are to blame for staying where they are."" +She also said the ""brown fields"" theory smacks of elitism. The per capita income of residents in industrial areas is generally lower than that of residents in the outlying areas who successfully fought the incinerator, she said. +Beatrice Bernzott, the leader of Concerned Citizens of Linden, said residents are fed up with oil spills in the Arthur Kill from nearby refineries, tank cars loaded with chemicals parked on rail sidings in town and the attempt to force Linden to accept the incinerator. ""With everything we already have, you'll need a shoehorn to put it in,"" she said. +Senator Raymond J. Lesniak, Democrat of Elizabeth, also opposes the incinerator, contending that a recent law requiring manufacturers to reduce hazardous wastes at the source may make it unnecessary. Moreover, he added, ""The area is not in compliance now with Federal and state clean-air standards, and this incinerator, along with a solid-waste incinerator already approved for Rahway, will make it impossible to comply."" +Judge Lavery allowed New York City to join the hearing over the objections of Mr. Samson, who said the city's reaction ""takes the idea of Not In My Backyard to new levels of hysteria."" Mr. Samson said the siting decision ""is a New Jersey matter and should be decided on New Jersey criteria."" +Christopher A. Amato, an assistant corporation counsel for New York City, said the ecological analysis presented by GAF did not ease the city's concerns about the impact of emissions on the bird sanctuary in the Arthur Kill and on the region's air quality. He said the company should have been required to do more than simply report on the incremental emissions the incinerator would produce. +""We are already experiencing a lot of pollution from New Jersey,"" he said, so GAF should be required to analyze the impact of the incinerator in the context of all existing sources of pollution. +Mr. Samson said the rotary kiln incinerator planned for the site would destroy 99.9999 percent of the organic waste it handled and would have far lower particulate emission rates than the regulations allow. In such a case, he said, it is not necessary for the company to examine all other pollution sources in the area. Mr. Samson presented 15 expert witnesses who testified that the site meets all criteria, something disputed by the opponents. +Judge Lavery will have to decide arguments over whether the site meets requirements for withstanding flooding caused by storms, whether the water table is too close to the surface, whether the site is too close to a residential area and whether there are adequate safeguards and evacuation plans in the event of an accident at the incinerator or one involving a truck en route to it." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Critics of Deal With Giants Want to Read the Fine Print +While New Jersey officials are poised to approve a new stadium for the New York Giants, the deal that was struck last week with the team has some lawmakers asking whether the state is giving up too much. +The board of the New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority is expected to vote in favor of the agreement today, since Acting Gov. Richard J. Codey has lined up support for what he calls 'a big win for taxpayers.' +The Giants are to build and finance a $750 million replacement for the 29-year-old state-owned stadium in the Meadowlands Sports Complex, pay $6.3 million in rent and taxes and take over maintenance costs of more than $3 million a year. +The state's obligations and potential losses are less clear, however. No one has determined exactly how much of the debt on the existing stadium must be paid off or whether the sports authority could have received more money for the 40 acres of prime property it is providing to the Giants for retail development. +The deal has critics within the administration and the sports authority, but few are willing to be identified. The public complaints are coming from legislators who raise doubt about the deal's benefits. +'I am afraid this ultimately will end up costing the taxpayers,' Assemblyman Kevin O'Toole, a Republican on the budget committee, said in a statement on Wednesday. +Lawmakers also say they have been given no information about the agreement, which Mr. Codey, a Democrat, signed on April 14. +'This may be the best deal in the world,' said Assemblyman Joseph R. Malone III, the ranking Republican on the budget committee, who with fellow Republican committee members called for a public hearing on the agreement. 'I just want it to see the light of day.' +Independent sports economists say that they believe the plan is a far better deal for the taxpayers than most N.F.L. stadiums are. +Even if the deal ends up costing the state $10 million to $20 million a year, as some detractors say, said Mark S. Rosentraub, an economist at Cleveland State University, that price would be negligible when spread over millions of households. +There are questions, though, about what the state is giving up over the 40-year term of the lease. It will take on $124 million in debt. +The chairman of the sports authority, Carl J. Goldberg, said the agency's lawyers believed that $72 million of that amount would have to be retired immediately when the existing stadium is demolished. He added that the authority already has the cash to pay that off. Whether the authority pays off more than that, refinances the remaining debt or both has not been determined. +The state now relies on revenue from the stadium to pay its debt service of $5 million to $6 million a year. Another source would have to be found if any debt is refinanced. It is not clear, either, how the state will finance the $30 million in infrastructure improvements that it plans to spend. +At the same time, the state will lose about $18 million a year that it receives from Giants, Jets and MetroStars games, concerts and other events -- although it already stands to lose income if the Jets and MetroStars soccer team, which also uses the stadium, leave as planned. +The state's consultants say the project will produce $15.3 million in added tax revenue in its first year of operation, 2009, and $1.1 billion more than the existing stadium would yield over a 30-year period. +Mr. Codey and Mr. Goldberg say the alternative to a new stadium -- improving the old one under a lease provision the Giants have sought to enforce in court -- is a huge risk that could cost the state $300 million. +Still, Republicans are critical, and even some Democrats are wary of the agreement. Mr. Goldberg says he has reached out to legislators to talk about the deal. But some complain that the terms are still mysterious. +Assemblyman Paul DiGaetano of Bergen County, a Republican running for governor, said Wednesday that the Giants were getting 'prime real estate' at almost no cost. +'The governor and the leadership of the sports authority are acting quickly before the people realize what's going on,' he said." +False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,"On Radio Show, Torricelli Takes The Times to Task +Senator Robert G. Torricelli said yesterday that The New York Times had deliberately misrepresented his relationship with a wealthy political contributor who was at the center of a federal investigation into his activities. +Five days after the announcement that the lengthy federal inquiry would end without criminal charges, Mr. Torricelli, a Democrat from New Jersey, offered some new details of the matter, saying for the first time that he had never accepted a Rolex watch or Italian suits from the contributor, David Chang. +In an appearance on the syndicated radio program 'Imus in the Morning,' on WFAN-AM (660), Mr. Torricelli also denied that he had brought Mr. Chang along to lobby for him in meetings with senior officials in South Korea, asserting that Mr. Chang had simply sneaked into one of the meetings without his knowledge. +'I had no idea what this man was doing in the room, nor did he play any particularly important role in the meeting,' Mr. Torricelli said. 'He showed up.' +The former United States ambassador to South Korea, Stephen W. Bosworth, gave a different account of Mr. Torricelli's actions there, echoing one given earlier by the former Korean finance minister, Kang Bong Kyoon. +Mr. Bosworth, who was interviewed about the matter last year by federal investigators, confirmed yesterday that in July 1999 he apologized to Mr. Kang after learning that Mr. Torricelli had taken Mr. Chang along to an official briefing with the minister and then lobbied him on Mr. Chang's behalf. At the time, Mr. Chang was trying to buy a $1.5 billion insurance company that was being sold off by the Korean government. +'Nobody sneaks into a meeting with the Korean finance minister,' Mr. Bosworth, now the dean of the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University in Medford, Mass., said in an interview with The Times. 'I thought it was inappropriate and I said as much to the minister.' +People involved in the inquiry said that federal prosecutors had also interviewed the American diplomat who had accompanied Mr. Torricelli to his meetings with Mr. Kang and the Korean prime minister, Kim Jong Pil, and that the diplomat, Marc Knapper, had confirmed that the senator had brought Mr. Chang along and had raised his bid for the insurance company with both officials. +Asked about the discrepancy, a spokeswoman for the senator, Deborah DeShong, declined to clarify or elaborate on Mr. Torricelli's remarks. +In his interview with Mr. Imus, Mr. Torricelli said that The Times had printed stories 'which to a certainty -- a certainty -- their reporters must have known were untrue, that appeared in no other newspaper.' +Mr. Torricelli said the paper's reporting had 'permanently damaged' the reputations of some of his aides, and that he himself felt like 'the New Jersey Wen Ho Lee.' Mr. Lee, the nuclear-weapons scientist who was suspected of spying for China, was the subject of articles in The Times that the newspaper's editors defended, though they acknowledged some flaws. +The senator said he was considering making a detailed presentation to reporters and editors at The Times about what he believed were its inaccuracies. Yesterday afternoon, however, Ms. DeShong said Mr. Torricelli had no further comment now. +Mr. Chang, who has cooperated with the government as part of a plea bargain, told federal investigators that during the course of his five-year relationship with Mr. Torricelli, he gave the legislator an $8,100 Rolex watch, about 10 off-the-rack Italian suits, a large-screen television set, an Oriental rug and other jewelry and gifts, people involved in the inquiry said. +Several merchants confirmed selling those items to Mr. Chang, and at least two of those also told investigators that they had been delivered to Mr. Torricelli's home, these people said. A tailor in Palisades Park, N.J., told investigators and reporters about having fitted the suits for a friend of Mr. Chang's who appeared to match Mr. Torricelli's description. +Asked about those assertions by Mr. Imus, Mr. Torricelli sometimes responded as he has since the first report of the allegations appeared in The Times, saying he had never taken 'illegal gifts.' When pressed, however, he specifically denied having taken a watch or suits from Mr. Chang. +Mr. Torricelli also said that all of his watches had been stolen in a burglary of his home in 1998, and that 'I had a record of every watch that I owned at the time.' +A copy of the report filed with the Englewood Police Department by one of Mr. Torricelli's aides, Roberta L. Stern, on Jan. 9, 1998, listed four watches missing in the burglary, including a Rolex made of stainless steel and valued at $3,200. +The United States attorney's office in Manhattan, which handled the federal inquiry over the last year, referred some of the evidence it had gathered to the Senate Ethics Committee. In a letter yesterday, a government watchdog group, Common Cause, urged leaders of the panel to name an outside counsel to conduct its inquiry, and called on the committee chairman, Senator Harry Reid, to recuse himself from the case. +Mr. Reid, a Nevada Democrat, is a longtime friend and supporter of Mr. Torricelli's who contributed $500 through a political action committee to the defense fund that the New Jersey senator set up to defray his legal costs during the inquiry." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Poll Finds Whitman In Lead for Senate +A survey of New Jersey voters showed Gov. Christine Todd Whitman leading by 16 percentage points over former Gov. Jim Florio in a matchup for the United States Senate seat to be vacated by Senator Frank R. Lautenberg next year. Neither Mrs. Whitman nor Mr. Florio have formally declared their intentions in the race. +Mr. Florio, who narrowly lost a race for re-election to Mrs. Whitman in 1993, has formed an exploratory committee to consider seeking the Democratic nomination. Mrs. Whitman is expected to announce next week whether she will enter the race. +According to the Quinnipiac College poll, Mrs. Whitman was favored by 51 percent and Mr. Florio by 35 percent in the poll that asked 984 New Jersey residents their preference if the Governor and former governor were paired in the contest. Fifty percent said they believed Mrs. Whitman has been a better governor than Mr. Florio; 18 percent said they preferred Mr. Florio. The poll has a margin of error of 3.1 percent. +Mr. Florio said that other recent polls, conducted by Democratic Party officials, suggest that he would beat Mrs. Whitman. 'I don't think that there is anybody in the state who does not believe, if it comes to pass, that this will be a competitive race,' he said. +Pete McDonough, a spokesman for Mrs. Whitman, said that 'walking into a race that you have not even entered with a 50 percent base is a very strong place to be.'" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Lobbyist Named as Transportation Chief +New Jersey's Transportation Commissioner resigned today, and Gov. Christine Todd Whitman quickly announced that she would replace him with a lobbyist who represented a casino owner in his dealings with the state. +The nominee, James Weinstein, who worked in several state government positions during the 1980's, has been a lobbyist since 1990 and has represented Mirage Resorts Inc. of Las Vegas, Nev., since 1996. +Mr. Weinstein said he directly lobbied state officials for money to build a $330 million tunnel to the site of a proposed casino resort in Atlantic City. The state has has agreed to pay at least two-thirds of the project's $330 million cost. +The much-debated tunnel will connect the Atlantic City Expressway to the 168-acre site where Stephen A. Wynn, the chairman of Mirage Resorts, plans to build a $1 billion casino and resort, including a 4,000-room hotel. Mr. Wynn has agreed to contribute $110 million to the tunnel. +The project has drawn opposition from Donald J. Trump and other owners whose casinos will have to compete with the Mirage project, from residents who will be forced to move and from environmentalists. +Today, some Atlantic City residents criticized the ties between Mr. Weinstein and Mirage Resorts. +'It's very shocking to me that there would a lobbyist instead of a transportation specialist for the top job in the entire state,' said Lillian E. Bryant, an Atlantic City homeowner who has opposed the tunnel. 'These people are supposed to look out for the citizens of New Jersey, not just the rich casino owners. How can we take this project seriously?' +Mr. Weinstein, 52, said he would avoid potential conflict of interest by recusing himself from any matters involving Mirage. 'Anything regarding the tunnel, or the casino, I will have no involvement in,' Mr. Weinstein said today. ' It will be dealt with by the deputy commissioner.' +Mr. Weinstein's permanent appointment requires the approval of the State Senate. +Across the country, as the number of gambling establishments has grown over the last decade, something of a revolving door has developed between government and the gambling industry. Because gambling is so heavily regulated, and casinos frequently receive tax abatements and other publicly financed incentives, casino owners have actively recruited influential politicians to negotiate favorable deals. Casinos are so profitable that they can easily attract government officials to work for them. +Mr. Weinstein would not discuss the salary he made by lobbying or the fees he was paid by Mirage, but said he was honored to be returning to public service. Mr. Wynn's spokesman, Alan M. Feldman, did not return calls for comment. +Governor Whitman's communications director, Peter McDonough, said Mr. Weinstein has extensive experience in transportation, as the former director of the New Jersey Governor's Authorities unit, which oversees the operation of the New Jersey Turnpike, New Jersey Transit, Garden State Parkway and the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. +Mr. McDonough dismissed the criticism of Mr. Weinstein's appointment as the grumbling of a handful of rival casino owners who were threatened by the competition with Mr. Wynn. They refuse, he said, to acknowledge the economic lift that the tunnel project will provide to South Jersey. +'This is a project that will create thousands and thousands of jobs where they are needed most, in Atlantic City,' Mr. McDonough said. 'It's a project that people all over the country rave about.' +Mr. Trump could not be reached for comment and his lobbyist, Alan Marcus, said the Trump organization would make no public statements about the appointment. +The departing Transportation Commissioner, John J. Haley, said he was leaving to accept an unspecified private job. +Mr. Weinstein, who will begin working as acting commissioner on Dec. 7, said that his top priorities would include carrying out the EZ-Pass system on New Jersey highways, advancing construction of a light rail rapid transit project in Bergen and Hudson Counties, and improving the service of New Jersey Transit trains and buses." +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Montclair Football Players Held in Rape of Schoolmate, 15 +Two high school varsity football players in Montclair, N.J., were charged yesterday with kidnapping and raping a 15-year-old sophomore schoolmate on Monday night after approaching her on a street, forcing her into a car and driving her to a park where the attack occurred, the police said. +The Montclair police chief, David P. Sabagh, said last night that the case had been under investigation since Tuesday, when the girl's parents, school authorities and the police all learned of it. He said the accused boys, a 17-year-old senior and a 15-year-old junior, had surrendered to the police under an agreement worked out with their lawyers. Both were suspended from school on Wednesday. +The suspects, whose names were withheld because of their ages, were charged with kidnapping, aggravated sexual assault, conspiracy and endangering the welfare of a child. They were held at the Essex County Juvenile Detention Facility in Newark pending a court hearing early next week, according to Charlotte Smith, a spokeswoman for the Essex County prosecutor's office. +Christopher Patella, a lawyer for the 15-year-old player, said the suspects were not cooperating with the police. 'I would never allow my client to talk to the detectives,' Mr. Patella said. He refused to comment on the case except to say, 'There are two sides to every story, and people should not be prejudiced by what they hear.' He called his client a 'good kid and a good student' who was acting 'like any other 15-year-old kid who's in this situation.' It was not immediately clear who was representing the 17-year-old. +Chief Sabagh said the girl told the police she had left the Montclair Public Library and was walking home early Monday evening when a car bearing three youths, whom she knew, approached her at Bloomfield Avenue and Elm Street, three blocks from her home. She said the two accused boys forced her into the car, and she was driven about a mile to Canterbury Park, which is on the border of Montclair and Glen Ridge. It was unclear if alcohol was involved, the police said. +Upon reaching the park, one of the three boys, a 16-year-old who is also a varsity football player, got out of the car and left the scene, the police said. +'When he saw things were getting out of hand, he bailed out,' Deputy Police Chief Roger Terry told The Star-Ledger of Newark. The youth, who was not identified, has not been charged with any wrongdoing and has been cooperating with the investigators, Chief Sabagh said. +The girl told the police the other two youths raped her. She put the time at about 6:30 p.m. After the attack, she said, the assailants drove her back to the area where they had accosted her, dropped her off and drove away. Apparently frightened, she did not immediately tell her parents, officials said, but confided in a girlfriend at school the next day. +Dr. Frank Alvarez, Montclair's superintendent of schools, said the victim's friend told a school staff member, who told a police officer employed at the school. The police were then called, Dr. Alvarez said, and the parents were notified by the police on Tuesday afternoon. School officials met with the parents of the girl and the accused youths and their parents on Wednesday, and the suspensions were invoked. +Chief Sabagh said the girl was not hospitalized and did not appear to have been bruised or otherwise physically injured. But he added: 'We do believe her. She seems to have been through a lot, and she has given detectives specifics that make her story credible.' +While word of an attack had been common knowledge in Montclair since Wednesday, when the allegations were first reported in The Montclair Times, the news that arrests had been made and charges formalized shocked many residents of the leafy suburban enclave of 40,000 people, 12 miles west of Manhattan, that is known for its diversity, its high-quality schools and its relative affluence. +'This is pretty upsetting,' Montclair's mayor, Ed Remsen, said last night. 'It's not something that we take lightly. I actually found out about it in the papers, so I don't know many details. But I do know that people are really upset. From the little bit I know, it looks like the high school and the police are moving quickly. Obviously, kids who are athletes sometimes go out and drink, but this doesn't sound right even for athletes.' +Dr. Alvarez, who became the school superintendent in Montclair last November, emphasized in a telephone interview that the alleged attack had not occurred on school grounds and that the school authorities were doing all they could to cooperate in the inquiry and provide psychological counseling and other assistance to students troubled by the week's events. +'I think everyone in town is distressed by this,' he said. 'Even though the incident didn't occur at the school or on school premises, these are still our students, and you feel a certain responsibility. Our main concern is for the well-being of the alleged victim and for the privacy of all involved.' He noted that coaches had spoken with members of the football team and that guidance counselors were available for all the students. +At Montclair High, a pastoral campus of broad lawns and brick buildings shaded by large oak trees and traversed by a brook, several football players emerging from practice said that a sports psychologist, Dr. Ben Brennan, had warned team members to be cautious around girls, and expressed concern that the accusations could reflect badly on the team. +The players, who declined to give their names, spoke of the accused youths as good teammates -- the 15-year-old junior plays defensive end, and the 17-year-old senior plays fullback and linebacker. One youth said of the older suspect: 'He's real cool. He never really bothers anybody.' +Ed Walker, 14, a freshman at Montclair High, said that many students were skeptical of the girl's account. 'I think she's just saying stuff,' he said. 'A lot of people around the school say she's not serious.' He called the accused youths 'two of the most popular guys in the school.' +Corinne Cuozzo, 15, a sophomore at the school, said she was not surprised that Montclair students may have been involved in a sexual assault case. 'I could definitely see this kind of thing happening here,' she said. 'It was just shocking that they got arrested for it. Kids here usually get arrested for something like lighting a garbage can on fire.' +Justine Legge, 15, a sophomore at Montclair Kimberly Academy, a private school in town, said the incident had been much discussed on the community's online bulletin board. 'There was a posting that said something like, 'All females be informed,'' she said. 'You have to be very aware as a teenage girl. I know girls who would be, like, 'Wow! He's a senior. He wants to give me a ride. I'm going.'' +Evisa Gallman, 17, a senior at Montclair High, was not surprised that the accusations had been made against football players. 'Frankly, the football team does some pretty dumb things,' she said. 'Some of the people on the team come across being not the sharpest tools in the shed.' +A junior student who did not give his name said the school had made no formal announcement about the case. Still, students were buzzing about it, he said. 'It's a little shocking because sexual assault doesn't happen every day,' he said. +Although it has not gone beyond the stage of unproved allegations and charges, the case appeared to hold echoes of a notorious assault in neighboring Glen Ridge 15 years ago. In the 1989 case, more than a dozen teenagers watched in a basement as a mildly retarded girl was sexually assaulted with a broomstick and a toy bat by three youths, who eventually went to prison. +A delay of six weeks in reporting the Glen Ridge incident to the police led to accusations of a cover-up. Intense publicity turned the town into a national caricature of moral decay in the affluent suburbs, and the community endured a wrenching self-examination on how to raise privileged youths, especially athletes. +The case gave rise to a book, 'Our Guys: The Glen Ridge Rape and the Secret Life of the Perfect Suburb,' by Bernard Lefkowitz, which became required reading for teachers at the high school. The book, which was made into a television movie, explored the impact of the case on the community and the ways in which affluent, mostly white suburbs failed to reckon with the sexual violence of children." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"I.R.S. Agents Seize Records From a New Jersey School Board +Federal tax agents have seized seven years' worth of financial records from the headquarters of the school board in this affluent suburban community as part of an investigation into possible money laundering, corruption and budget irregularities, officials said today. +A few hours after the raid, the school board voted to suspend the district's business administrator. +Ten agents of the Internal Revenue Service spent most of Tuesday afternoon at the board's small, one-story office building examining files, and left with several cartons of vendor lists, purchase orders, bills and a computer containing financial data, Benjamin Fox, the president of the school board, said. +In addition, the agents, who came with a wide-ranging federal search warrant, confiscated school board resolutions, meeting agendas and 19 other categories of material dating back to 1993, said Al Drucker, a spokesman for the criminal investigation section of the I.R.S. +Mr. Drucker said the warrant gave the agents authority to search for possible violations of eight sections of the federal criminal code, including those dealing with money laundering and public corruption. He would not offer other details of the inquiry, including the reasons for it or whether it was a spinoff of a broader federal investigation of public officials elsewhere in New Jersey. +Mr. Fox, the superintendent of this small district of 2,200 students, said he was mystified about the origins of the investigation and the reasons for it, and pointed out during an interview that the search warrant bore only the name of Richard Davis, the school system's business administrator and chief financial officer for the last 17 years. +The board held an emergency meeting Tuesday night and suspended Mr. Davis, who is also the secretary to the school board. Mr. Davis was allowed to continue collecting his annual salary of $135,000, Mr. Fox said. +Mr. Davis could not be reached today for comment on the inquiry and his suspension. A woman who answered the phone at his home said, 'Not available, thank you,' and hung up. +The federal government has seldom investigated school district financing in New Jersey. Typically, the State Department of Education monitors school budgets and usually helps local officials resolve minor problems with them. +In districts with deep-seated, persistent budget problems, the state has usurped local control and put a fiscal monitor in charge of spending. In an extreme case of fiscal mismanagement in the late 1980's, the State Education Department seized control of the Jersey City school system, which it continues to run. +In Wyckoff's case, officials at the Education Department and the State Division of Criminal Justice said they had no prior knowledge of the I.R.S. inquiry or the seizure of documents. +Mr. Fox said the district's books were examined each year by an independent outside auditor as required by state education law. 'There's been no irregularities whatsoever,' he said. 'All those audits in the past have had A+ ratings.' +He said the State Education Department routinely reviewed the audits and had never raised questions about Wyckoff's $19 million annual budget or any of its accounting practices. He said he had no idea whether any money was missing from school district accounts. And he said he and other board members knew nothing about the possible existence of any obscure accounts with questionable deposits or payments consistent with any money-laundering scheme. +Mr. Fox said the inquiry had unfairly 'cast a shadow' on the entire school system and its teachers and other employees. 'It's important for the public to continue to support this district,' he said. 'The Board of Education has nothing to hide, and we want to get to the bottom of whatever took place. That's a message I want to make perfectly clear.' +At its meeting on Tuesday night, the board voted to hire another auditing company to review the financial data at issue, Mr. Fox said. He said there was no indication that the board's regular auditor was involved in the investigation. +News of the inquiry startled many in this suburb of about 17,000 in western Bergen County. The school system generally has a solid educational reputation and, as in many of the wealthier suburbs in northern New Jersey, Wyckoff's schools are an important underpinning of high property values. The system has five elementary schools, a middle school and two regional high schools. Pride in the system runs deep, and parents were disturbed today. +'Everybody is just totally shocked right now,' said one parent, Helene Naftali, interviewed outside George Washington Elementary School. 'This is a community where the feeling is that everything is upstanding. This is very shocking and very upsetting.' +Another parent, Barbara Lucia, said she was worried that the investigation could undermine support for a $20 million bond issue for renovations at one of the regional high schools, Ramapo High. +'It just goes to show you that there's no community that's immune from this kind of thing,' she said." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"The Gang's All Here, and All Under Arrest at a Party in N.J. +It was a familiar weekend-night call to a suburban police department: a teenagers' party at a nearby house was getting loud and rowdy, and the neighbors wanted officers to investigate. +When the officers arrived at the two-story home on Shrewsbury Drive in suburban Livingston, N.J., they said they discovered much of the cause for the raucousness: dozens of open beer containers and several marijuana water pipes in plain view inside the open front door. The smell of marijuana smoke was pervasive, the police said. +So the officers did what has become part of their routine at large house parties where there is evidence of drugs and alcohol being consumed by minors: they arrested all 42 teenagers at the home. +'We were lucky,' Detective Lt. Craig Handschuch said last night. 'No one tried to run out of the house. No one got in a car and drove away.' +Detective Handschuch said it appeared that many of the teenagers were under the influence of drugs and alcohol. Fifteen 18- and 19-year-olds were charged with possession of marijuana, drug paraphernalia and consumption of an alcoholic beverage. Twenty-seven teenagers ages 14 to 17 were accused of the same charges, he said. +The party was held at the home of Tzvi Gerstle, 18, a student at the Joseph Kushner Hebrew Academy in Livingston, whose parents were away for the weekend, Detective Handschuch said. Mr. Gerstle was also charged with serving alcohol to minors. +While 42 arrests at a single location might draw some attention in other places, Detective Handschuch said that the police regularly broke up large parties in Livingston, which is west of Newark, and often made numerous arrests. +Most of the minors were released to their parents at the home. The 18- and 19-year-olds, who were charged as adults, were taken to the police station for processing before being released to their parents, Detective Handschuch said. 'We made sure everyone was released to a responsible adult,' he said. +Correction: December 4, 2004, Saturday An article on Nov. 22 about the arrest of 42 teenagers at a house party in Livingston, N.J., included an erroneous reference from the police to the host, Tzvi Gerstle, 18.

DiFrancesco, a middle-of-the-road Republican from Scotch Plains, humbly took possession of one of the nation's most powerful governor's offices today as he was sworn in to fill out Christie Whitman's remaining 11 months in office. +Mrs. Whitman's resignation took effect at 10 this morning, and with that, Mr. DiFrancesco, the president of the State Senate since 1992, became the first person since 1919 to succeed a departed New Jersey governor for more than a few days. Under a unique and often criticized provision of the state Constitution, he is required to retain his legislative role, blurring the separation of powers. +In a short speech after taking the special oath reserved for acting governors, Mr. DiFrancesco, 56, called himself 'doubly blessed' to be entrusted with the positions that make him two-thirds of the triumvirate -- with the speaker of the Assembly -- that traditionally rules Trenton. But he indicated that he would be careful not to abuse his extraordinary power. +'Citizens of New Jersey, I fully understand the awesome responsibility that I have undertaken,' he said in the governor's outer office, as his wife, Diane, and three grown daughters looked on. +Mr. DiFrancesco is also a candidate for a full term as governor in this year's election, which will be the only major race in the country besides Virginia's gubernatorial contest. And he promised today to use the 'window of opportunity' of the next four months, as the state's budget is prepared, to act on what is simultaneously his legislative agenda and his campaign platform: increasing rebates to homeowners to ease the pain of soaring property taxes, expanding access to affordable health care and prescription drugs, investing in education and promoting water quality. +But his political opponents -- Bret D. Schundler, the conservative mayor of Jersey City who is mounting a challenge in the June Republican primary, and James E. McGreevey, the Democratic mayor of Woodbridge who is unopposed in his party -- have vowed to make an issue of Mr. DiFrancesco's responsibility for what they call the failures of the Whitman administration. +Indeed, in his first brief news conference, the acting governor was immediately confronted with questions about two such items: the continuing problem of racial profiling and the persistently high cost of automobile insurance. He echoed Mrs. Whitman's vow of 'zero tolerance' for racial profiling. And he called a report of a looming spike in car insurance rates erroneous, saying, 'It is not my intention to see the auto insurance rates of the citizens of New Jersey raised at all.' +Democrats greeted Mr. DiFrancesco's new title warmly today, while musing that state politics, already feverish with election-year politicking, was about to enter a strange new world. The Senate minority leader, Richard J. Codey, warned that he would scrutinize the acting governor's every act to make sure it was 'what's best for all the people of New Jersey, not just what's best for his candidacy.' +But Mr. Codey wondered aloud whether Mr. DiFrancesco would be bold enough to risk controversy. 'Will he be a profile in courage, or will he go along to get along and get elected?' Mr. Codey asked. 'That's the question: are you willing to take an unpopular stand for the people of New Jersey?' +In his remarks, Mr. DiFrancesco thanked the absent Mrs. Whitman, who was sworn in as administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency today in Washington, for her 'strong leadership,' but he made clear in a number of ways that his own style of governing would be quite different. +While Mrs. Whitman drew the resentment of many lawmakers by excluding them from major policy discussions, Mr. DiFrancesco, a devoted legislator, has honed a consensual leadership style in the State Senate. Today, for example, he was asked why he had not embraced Governor Whitman's last-minute surprise, an agreement-in-principle for a new arena in Newark for the New Jersey Devils and Nets. He responded by repeating no fewer than five times the need to involve lawmakers in any deal-making process. +Mr. DiFrancesco also showed that he would not drop his regular-guy demeanor at the door to the governor's office. Repeatedly asked his timetable for approving a Newark arena, he told a reporter: 'I don't have a timetable. You've got to give me a chance here.' +Mr. DiFrancesco also said he would not move into the governor's mansion in Princeton, where Mrs. Whitman spent a few nights each week. His aides say he has resisted the 24-hour security bubble that enveloped Mrs. Whitman, and complained of the impracticality of having troopers stationed in his modest home in Scotch Plains. But after a news photographer appeared in his front yard early this morning, his spokeswoman, Rae Hutton, speculated that he might reconsider. +Mr. DiFrancesco began his day attending the 8 a.m. Mass at the Immaculate Heart of Mary Roman Catholic Church in Scotch Plains with his family. After his oath-taking, he spent several hours in meetings, missing lunch, before leaving for Newark to attend the swearing-in of a new Superior Court judge, Stephen J. Bernstein. The two men had been partners in the same law firm in Warren, N.J.; both had resigned, effective today. +Mr. DiFrancesco told a roomful of lawyers in Newark that he felt obliged to keep his promise to attend the ceremony despite his new promotion. He then left for New York City for another previous commitment: speaking at a banquet of construction-industry executives belonging to a fraternal group called the Moles, where he was asked to wait two hours to give the keynote speech. +But acting governor or not, Mr. DiFrancesco's life seemed to change by the hour today. He came to work at the State House in a car driven by an aide. He left for Newark in a car driven by a state trooper. And he left Newark for New York behind a pair of police officers on motorcycles, their sirens yelping to clear the way for New Jersey's new chief executive." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Suspect in '95 Vandalism Is Dead After Accident +A Springfield man who faced charges that he cut a 70-foot swastika into a Burlington County cornfield in 1995 appears to have died in a motorcycle accident, the police said yesterday, a week after he had been reported missing. +An autopsy had not been completed yesterday on the man, James Pippitt, 21, but he appeared to have suffered head and chest injuries in the accident, said Sgt.

Scott Ellis, said today. Mr. Ellis said he had been surprised by the 5-4 vote, with one member abstaining and Mr. Ellis, as chairman, not voting. +The 11-member Fish and Game Council is made up of six members nominated by the hunting groups, with the rest representing farmers and commercial fishermen. Their vote banned having the deer killed by sharpshooters, as well as a controversial method for capturing deer and slaughtering them, and the experimental use of contraceptive vaccines that act on the animals' immune system. +To the small but persistent group of animal rights advocates who have been trying and failing for years to stop the Princeton deer program, the decision by a panel weighted toward sport-hunting interests was still a victory for deer. +'We want to say to the state that they made the right decision,' said Carl Mayer, a leader of the antihunting coalition. +Bruce Afran, a lawyer for the group, said, 'This great liberal bastion of the United States should not have associated with a program as barbaric as this.' +The township, which has already reduced its deer population by nearly half, to about 750, said it would likely modify its plan in time for it to be reconsidered at the council's February meeting, perhaps by offering some hunting on the township's open lands. +'We are extremely disappointed in the decision,' said Deputy Mayor Bill Enslin. 'We've worked very closely with the Fish and Game Council in the development of our program over the past three years, and we've achieved success. We've reduced our deer-car collisions by over 50 percent, and our deer population was getting down to striking distance of our objective.' +The township wants to reach a deer population of about 350. +'We need to talk to a number of people and figure out exactly where we need to compromise,' Mr. Enslin said. 'I guess our preliminary sense is that there are really two things going on. One is that the hunters were unhappy with us because we don't allow hunting in our public parks, and I think we need to look at that. The second part is the autoimmune contraception. That was a real surprise.' +Using rifles with silencers and nets at corn-baited ambush sites, White Buffalo's shooters have killed nearly 350 deer per winter season over the last two years. Protesters objected that the shooting was being done too close to houses. And they lambasted as inhumane the practice of netting deer and then stunning them for slaughter by driving a pneumatic bolt into their skulls. That system was used in places too close to housing for shooting to be allowed. +Bradley M. Campbell, the commissioner of the Department of Environmental Protection, said today that he expected Princeton's program to win approval, although with modifications. He noted that Princeton was the only township to use the net-and-bolt approach, and appeared to defend the practice while acknowledging that it was morally troubling for some people. +'I recognize the serious concerns that animal protection advocates have raised as to whether the net and bolt element of the plan is humane,' Mr. Campbell said. 'But you have to consider the issue in context. Allowing large numbers of deer to starve or be killed or wounded by cars will often result in far more suffering than the plan that was proposed.' +Mr. Enslin, the deputy mayor, said that the township had spent more than $250,000 defending its deer management program in court. He added that the town might sue to recover some of those costs on the ground that the advocates' suits were frivolous. +Mr. Afran, the lawyer, today accused the township of unnecessarily prolonging the litigation." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Convict Costume Leads to Warnings +Trick-or-treating is still weeks away, but a realistic-looking prison costume has already tricked the New Jersey Department of Corrections and prompted the store chain selling the outfit to issue a warning to those who buy it. +The incident began on Sept. 23, when an off-duty correction officer, walking through the Cumberland Mall in Vineland, N.J., thought he spotted an escaped convict at the food court. +Catching a glimpse of a man in an orange jumpsuit with the words Department of Corrections printed on the back, the officer, who has not been identified, had his girlfriend call 911. When the Vineland police arrived, it took almost 40 minutes for the man in the jumpsuit to persuade them that he was the manager of the Spencer Gifts store, part of an international chain that makes its employees dress up in costumes between Labor Day and Halloween. +Chris Carden, a spokesman for the Department of Corrections, said the costume, which comes complete with a set of handcuffs, posed a 'risk to the public safety,' because it looked much like the outfit worn by some prisoners on work detail in New Jersey. +Correction officials were so concerned about the possibility of mistaken identity that they sent a telex to local and national law enforcement officials warning them not to be fooled. +'They have every right to sell it,' Mr. Carden said, but officials wanted people to know it looked like a state prison jumpsuit. 'There is a certain amount of risk in wearing it -- not much, but some.' +By yesterday, after Mr. Carden had talked with the corporate lawyer for Spencer Gifts, the retailer had agreed to take precautions as it continues to sell the costume at its 600 stores and Web site. +Tracy Wain, a marketing research and strategy analyst for Spencer Gifts, which is based in Egg Harbor, N.J., said the chain had agreed to send a letter to all of its stores, instructing employees to wear the prison costume only in the store. The chain also agreed to warn customers who bought the costume, which sells for $27.99, that they ran some risk in wearing it. +'We are sending out a communication to our employees in our stores, to advise customers that the costume could pose a risk and that they should wear a jacket or cover up when wearing it,' Ms. Wain said. +Ms. Wain said the costume had been selling well. A survey of several stores in the area showed that there were costumes in stock. +Ms. Wain was asked if she thought the correction officer at the mall had overreacted. 'All I can say is that it's a little unlikely that an escaped convict would be sitting at a mall eating lunch,' she said." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"From a Church's Ashes, a Friendship Is Born +The embers were still smoldering in the ruins of West Side Presbyterian Church in this upscale Bergen County village when the Rev. Michael Pulsifer got the first of many calls of consolation. It was from a rabbi in Manhattan. +Rabbi Peter J. Rubinstein offered sympathy because, several years earlier, his own house of worship, the historic Central Synagogue, had burned down. +From that act of kindness, a friendship has grown. Although they have never met face to face, the New Jersey minister and the New York rabbi have spent hours on the telephone and communicated by letter and e-mail. 'We're a rare fraternity,' said Rabbi Rubinstein, 'those of us who have lost sanctuaries.' +One suggestion that the rabbi offered was that Mr. Pulsifer invite people from outside the church to speak to its 1,500 members, and, he said, 'help them understand they're not in this alone.' +Mr. Pulsifer, the senior minister at the church, figured that there was no better person to do that than Rabbi Rubinstein himself. And so this Sunday, nearly four months after the fire at West Side, Rabbi Rubinstein, who is the senior rabbi at Central Synagogue, is scheduled to speak at the church's regular 8:45 a.m. and 11:15 a.m. services. +Adding to the ecumenical character of Rabbi Rubinstein's visit is the location. West Side is still a scorched shell with roof beams open to the sky, so the congregation has been conducting services and Christian education classes in the auditorium of a Catholic girls' high school, Immaculate Heart Academy, in neighboring Washington Township. +The academy is providing the space free. So are a number of other churches, groups and companies that have been providing space for West Side's many activities, which include 70 community organizations and a social ministry the church is renowned for here and abroad. +West Side, a Gothic stone structure dating to 1923, had just completed a $1.8 million renovation when the five-alarm fire, caused by faulty electrical wiring, erupted on Jan. 9. +Besides engulfing the sanctuary, flames collapsed the slate roof; destroyed a Tudor-style wing containing the auditorium, a library, a chapel and several basement meeting rooms; and damaged an adjacent nursery school. The loss was estimated at $8.5 million. +Mr. Pulsifer's neighbor, Paul J. Reichenbach, director of the international education department of the Union of American Hebrew Congregations, was in Orlando, Fla., when he saw the fire on a cable news channel. +He immediately left a message of sympathy on Mr. Pulsifer's answering machine and called Rabbi Rubinstein, a friend of 30 years, who he thought could offer the minister good advice. +Rabbi Rubinstein soon sent a check for $1,000, 'a token of our support for the rebuilding effort.' +'None of us in the ministry or rabbinate is ever prepared for what lies ahead,' he said in the accompanying letter. 'But I can tell you that there will be blessings in it all, that your strength and vision will be resilient, and that I believe you will lead your congregation with the same fortitude and goodness to which your reputation gives credit.' +Like West Side, Central Synagogue, which is at East 55th Street and Lexington Avenue, was being renovated when on Aug. 28, 1998, fire badly damaged much of the interior of the Moorish-Revival temple. Built in 1872, the city and national landmark was considered -- before the fire -- the oldest building in continuous use as a synagogue in New York. It re-opened Sept. 9. +Rabbi Rubinstein said that after the fire, the congregation drew strength from friends and neighbors, including other synagogues and churches. 'It's amazing, actually,' he said. 'While we were out of the sanctuary, we grew dramatically in number and became more aware of the essence of the soul of the congregation.' +Mr. Pulsifer said Rabbi Rubinstein counseled him, 'Let your lay people and your rebuilding committee run the project.' +Mr. Pulsifer said he was happy to leave the details to the architects, financial people and other experts in his congregation; encouraging leadership is his style, anyway. 'People learn the faith not only through worship but also by doing,' he said. Besides, he added, 'It's no use building a building, if you don't have a congregation when the building is built.' +Kurt Kaboth, president of West Side's board of trustees, said shortly after the fire, officials at Central Synagogue helped the church's insurance committee with duties like filing insurance claims and coordinating construction. +Today, minister and rabbi still will not get to meet in person. Mr. Pulsifer has been in Reynosa, Mexico, for the past week with a group of adult volunteers building houses and manning a clinic, and is beginning a three-month sabbatical. +Rabbi Rubinstein's sermon, touching on his temple's rebirth, is titled 'Let Us Rise Up and Rebuild,' and he said he hopes it will be a message of 'hope and courage.' +'Sanctuaries are supposed to be invulnerable, so that losing one feels like an incursion into one's being, the core of who one is as an individual and as a congregation,' Rabbi Rubinstein said. 'But after that initial response, you realize that whereas a sanctuary is a projection of what you want to be, it's not who you are. So then you spend your time finding the values that are the real core of who you are. And that's never in a building.'" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Woman Dies And 7 Fall Ill At Convention +A 45-year-old Massachusetts woman attending a business convention at a hotel in the Philadelphia suburb of Cherry Hill, N.J., died of aggressive bacterial pneumonia early yesterday, and seven other conventiongoers were hospitalized with a flulike respiratory illness, medical officials said. +Bacterial pneumonia is not highly contagious and usually not fatal, and an expert in infectious diseases said the death of the woman, Joanne Hemstreet, of Kingston, Mass., who became seriously ill on Saturday and died hours after being admitted to a hospital, seemed to be an isolated case that had not endangered others. +But for much of the day, the cause of her death was uncertain, and mounting concern over a possible outbreak of anthrax, Legionnaire's disease or meningitis prompted health officials to quarantine the 400-room Cherry Hill Hilton for eight hours while they interviewed scores of guests and employees. +In addition, about 80 conventioneers were examined at the Cherry Hill campus of Kennedy Memorial Hospitals, where the woman died. Seven were admitted with flulike symptoms, and others who had come into close contact with Ms. Hemstreet -- conventiongoers, hotel employees, emergency medical personnel and police officers -- were treated with antibiotics as a precaution against meningitis. +'No one realized how serious this was until this morning when we woke up and found out this woman had died,' said Christopher Holmes, of Scottsdale, Ariz., one of 450 people who attended the five-day national sales convention of Cendant Mortgage, a subsidiary of the Cendant Corporation, at the hotel. +After a day of intensive investigation that included an autopsy, laboratory tests, interviews with the sick and growing concern over the mysterious source of infection, officials late yesterday virtually ruled out anthrax and other highly infectious bacteria, and said the danger to others seemed minimal. +'This does not appear to be anthrax,' Dr. David Condoluci, the chief of infectious diseases for Kennedy Health System, which operates several hospitals in the area, said at a late-afternoon news briefing in Cherry Hill. 'We are fairly confident this was not an intentional exposure.' +Tests for Legionnaire's disease and meningitis were expected to take another day or two, he said, but they also were expected to be negative. Dr. Condoluci said that of the seven people admitted to the hospital -- six women and a man -- two appeared to have minor bacterial pneumonia and the other five a bronchitislike illness. All were stable and were expected to be released today or tomorrow. +New Jersey has been a focal point into the investigation of anthrax-laced letters that were postmarked in the Trenton area and killed five people last fall. Legionnaire's disease, a pneumonialike sickness caused by a bacteria that grows in water and can spread through air-conditioning ducts, was named for a July 1976 outbreak that killed 29 people at an American Legion convention in Philadelphia. +Dr. Condoluci said that Ms. Hemstreet, an account manager for Cendant Mortgage's northeast region, had begun to suffer flulike symptoms on Wednesday as she drove to the convention with co-workers from Massachusetts. On Thursday and Friday, she told friends at the sales meetings that she was feeling worse, and on Saturday she apparently contracted what Dr. Condoluci called an aggressive bacterial infection of the lungs. +She retreated to her room, and as her condition worsened through the day and early evening, she experienced headaches, severe nausea and vomiting, and her temperature rose above 102 degrees, Dr. Condoluci said. At her behest, friends called 911 and she was taken by ambulance to the Kennedy Memorial Hospitals emergency room, where she was admitted at 8:40 p.m. +'She was already very sick, critically ill, with shortness of breath and mental-status changes,' Dr. Condoluci said. Despite immediate treatment with antibiotics, her condition deteriorated. He said a chest X-ray showed pneumonia in both lungs, and what began as a small rash on her thigh rapidly spread into a purple discoloration that covered her body. +Overwhelmed by the infection, the victim went into shock and despite efforts at resuscitation, died at 3:14 a.m. An autopsy by the Camden County medical examiner's office was conducted immediately, and preliminary results indicated that death was a result of an overwhelming bacterial pneumonia. +As the convention went through its final day of meetings on Saturday, and concluded with a banquet that evening, most of the conventioneers were unaware of Ms. Hemstreet's illness. But concern over her case prompted health officials to quarantine the hotel from 2 a.m. to 10 a.m. yesterday. +None of the seven admitted to the hospital were known to have been in close contact with Ms. Hemstreet. Their symptoms included fever, chills, sore throat, coughing and general weakness. All were given antibiotics.

To clear up lingering confusion, city officials recently dismantled the Victorian gazebo that once graced its center. +Set in the heart of this bedraggled city, the Park-Madison site, as officials prefer to call it, may soon sprout a four-story complex of stores, county offices and parking. The deal will earn Plainfield $1 million and inject desperately needed life into a city that has been floundering since the late 1960's, when school busing and race riots fueled the familiar scourge of white flight and economic decline. +There is only one problem. Under state law, any land that has been used as a park must remain a park. Of course, there are loopholes. Municipalities can claim that bureaucrats mistakenly designated a space as parkland. Even though Plainfield spent $300,000 in federal money making the place look more like a park, and despite the fact that dozens of permits are given out for carnivals and community fund-raisers -- officials are saying that the Park-Madison site was never a park. +'It was a clerical error,' said Dan Damon, a spokesman for the city, which has a population of 48,000, explaining why the plot was placed on a New Jersey open spaces inventory. Although state officials insist on calling it a park, the site's future rests with Robert C. Shinn, New Jersey's commissioner of environmental protection, who is expected to decide in the coming weeks. +The land, which was cleared 35 years ago, was originally part of a federal urban renewal project that died when financing evaporated. Mayor Albert T. McWilliams said the improvements, which started a decade ago, were meant only to turn an embarrassing eyesore into a temporary urban amenity. 'To us, that land has always been a symbol of Plainfield's inability to progress,' Mr. McWilliams said. 'The only reason we put grass there was to keep the dirt from blowing all over the place.' +TELL that to Myrna Rivera, 32, an office cleaner from Ecuador, who was taking her 2-year-old daughter, Vivian, for a stroll on a recent warm afternoon. 'We love this place,' she said. 'We would be very sad if they took it away.' +Although Plainfield's growing Hispanic population stands to lose a cherished swath of greenery, it is the city's wealthier residents who are battling the backhoes. In a city that is 83 percent minority, Plainfield officials privately say that that the most vociferous proponents of keeping the site green are white. Mr. Damon calls them 'the newcomers.' +Deborah Dahl, a consultant to nonprofit organizations, has been leading the charge. She believes that Plainfield is making a grave error by paving over what they call the village green. 'The health and economic vitality of a town is shaped by its center,' said Ms. Dahl, who bought two rambling mansions here two years ago and is converting one into corporate apartments. 'When potential home buyers or employers come here, the first thing they see is this beautiful open green. It says: 'This is great place for children. This is our soul.' ' +The debate, tinged by talk of racism and underhanded politics, has become rancorous. Ms. Dahl says the city tried to secretly push the project through the approvals process. Mr. Damon accuses her of spinning lies. Others complain that the project, anchored by social services, is less than ideal. Downtown, they point out, is littered with empty buildings begging for revitalization. +'The city has no foresight,' said Murray Roberts, who moved here in 1968, when most middle-class residents were fleeing. 'To me it sounds like a political deal, the perfect place for patronage. If they really want to develop downtown, they should improve the park and then enhance the area.' +At its core, the dispute is a clash between visions of how to revive a wounded city. Ms. Dahl said the future of Plainfield, blessed with one of the country's largest collection of Victorian architecture, lies in drawing affluent homesteaders, people much like herself. +But Mr. McWilliams believes the elixir for Plainfield's woes are lower property taxes, a feat that can only be achieved by luring more commerce. Sure, downtown is littered with empty buildings, he says, but so far, no one is clamoring to buy them. +'These people are just sitting on the sidelines saying, 'Do this, do that,' ' he said. 'But bring me an interested developer and I'll be happy to listen.' +Our Towns" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Just Another Day on Train Turns to Morning of Torn Metal, Chaos and Fear +This morning, like every morning, William Jackson sat right behind the driver in the first window seat on the first car on the 8:24 out of East Rutherford, N.J. Before the train reached Hoboken, Karen Chambers was plunging through as many pages of her medical thriller as she could. Robert Farkas would not have been on board at all, except that a flat tire stopped him on the way to the 7:30 train. +Scores of passengers dozed or stared out the window at the forgettable moonscape of frozen marshes and six-foot reeds caught terminally in the middle of nowhere. Then suddenly an utterly ordinary moment in the daily commute became anything but: an abrupt disharmony of blaring train horns, screeching brakes, cleaving metal and sparks, of train cars jarred to a halt at frightening angles. +I always pick that seat,"" said Mr. Jackson, lying in the emergency room of University Medical Center in Newark, remembering that he had been tucking his newspaper away when he was lifted out of his seat. ""The next thing I knew I was knocked up against the window, I was knocked upside the head into the window."" +George Burger, 43, has been getting on the same train at Fair Lawn, N.J., every working day for the last 12 years. Today, he was among about 50 passengers in the half-full front car, about 20 rows from the front. +""My eyes were closed, I was relaxing, and then I was sharply awakened,"" Mr. Burger said. ""It felt like a very big earthquake, just a tremendous shaking. I realized something really bad had happened and my fear was that the train was going to roll over."" +No one remembers traveling at any great speed, but they do remember that horn and the sudden slam of brakes at 8:40 A.M. as the commuter train filled and then overflowed with the motion and noises of the ordinary run amok. +Karen Chambers, 43, an insurance saleswoman, was lost in the pages of ""Nothing Personal,"" a medical thriller set in an emergency room. Sitting toward the back of the front car, she was hurled into the seat in front of her. +""I thought I was dead,"" she said. ""I couldn't see, I couldn't move. I was completely covered in blood and I didn't know where it was coming from."" Later she learned she had broken her nose. +R. Richard Hirtler, 34, had been looking out the window from the third car and watched transfixed as each of the six cars of the outbound train clipped the shattered front end of his train. +""The cars were being torn open and derailing as they went by,"" Mr. Hirtler said. ""There was a shower of sparks and the cars were derailing."" +Little decisions that seem inconsequential took on enormous importance, like where passengers chose to sit. One commuter sitting five rows from the front of the first car thinks he watched a fellow passenger die. +""I saw it but I didn't want to look,"" said the passenger, a resident of Porterville, N.J., who declined to give his name. ""Fifteen seconds felt like 10 minutes. It felt like an eternity."" +Mr. Farkas, the man who had the flat tire, caught a train an hour later than he should have and sat in the front car, a few rows back from the front. He ended up with a shattered skull and was whisked into surgery at the Jersey City Medical Center because the bones around one eye socket had collapsed. +Mr. Burger remembers that he had been holding a folder crammed with loose-leaf papers and watched transfixed as it flew through the air and slammed into the wall intact. ""It flew so fast that it didn't have time to fall apart,"" he said. +The moment ended with the most unearthly silence and then some of the worst screams most passengers had ever heard. The first car in the Hoboken train jumped six yards sideways and came to rest tilted at a 45-degree angle, like an ocean liner that suddenly heeled over. The cars in the outbound train tilted about 20 degrees as they derailed, digging into the gravel track bed and shearing off metal boxes from the undercarriage. +""It was so strange, that deadly silence,"" said Jon Gemmer, 50, headed from Rutherford to his job as a systems analyst at Chemical Bank. ""It was silent. It was just too silent."" +The cars briefly filled with smoke from all the grinding metal, and the lights went out. Mr. Gemmer looked out the window and saw that half the front of the locomotive on the other track was a mass of jagged metal strips where the cab should have been. Amid the groaning and screaming there was nearly a moment of collective panic because people thought they were trapped, but gradually all but the most severely wounded found their way out onto the rails. +Robert Morris, 44, a vice president at Chase Manhattan Bank, was standing against the back wall of the first car and braced himself when he heard the hissing of the emergency brakes. He thinks he was the first person to clamber off and walked up to the front of the train, where he saw the body of the engineer. +""The whole cab had been ripped apart and he was lying down inside it,"" Mr. Morris said. ""He looked like a Raggedy Ann doll."" +The emergency crews arrived within 10 minutes, popping out the windows and sliding in boards to take out the dead and most seriously wounded. +Carol Brantley, 56, of Paterson, N.J., left behind her leopard-skin pillbox hat, lost somewhere among the rubble of bloody newspapers and abandoned shoes at the very bottom of the car. +""You don't know how lucky you are to walk away from disaster,"" Ms. Brantley said. +Mr. Jackson lost his glasses and felt blood dripping down his face. Some men hauled him over the back of the seat where he was trapped and a medical student dressed his eye. He was evacuated by helicopter to Newark but released from the hospital later today. And he wasn't the only passenger who said he would change at least one of his daily habits. +""From now on,"" Mr. Jackson said, ""I'll make it a point to sit in the last car."" +CRASH ON NEW JERSEY TRANSIT: THE SCENE" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Layoffs Start In New Jersey As Towns Brace for Cuts +Even during his campaign for governor, James E. McGreevey warned New Jerseyans that a yawning budget deficit would cause pain. Now, as governor, he has begun to inflict it. +So from state government employees to local governments, the question today was where his knife would cut the deepest. +About 600 state employees, most of them in technical jobs outside Civil Service protection, ended their day Wednesday with brusque notices saying they were laid off. In the process, Mr. McGreevey eliminated the Office of State Planning, headquarters for the state's nationally recognized efforts to control sprawl. +And that may be just the start. His staff has also put already nervous Civil Service unions on notice by warning that some layoffs of regular employees, of the kind that roiled the state under Gov. Jim Florio a dozen years ago, may also be coming. +And Mr. McGreevey has told New Jersey's towns and municipalities, where costs have been rising steadily, that their nearly automatic annual increases in state aid are a thing of the past, and that they will get no increase for the new budgets many of them have just begun to draw up. +The new governor, who took office on the 15th, has put some of the blame for the state's budget problems on his Republican predecessor, the former acting governor Donald T. DiFrancesco. Some Democratic officials went out of their way today to pin the impending pain on the Republicans, and Governor McGreevey himself declared that he would stir a political hornet's nest by auditing, and perhaps trying to reopen, the $500 million, seven-year contract the departed Republican administration signed in 1998 with Parsons Infrastructure and Technology Group to operate New Jersey's auto emissions testing program. +At the end of the day today, many of the men and women who had been laid off were cleaning out their desks and hoping that their jobs might yet be saved. After all, they said, the 600 jobs that were cut would save only about $25 million according to the governor's own calculation. Of that, the 27 people in the Office of State Planning accounted for only about $2 million of the $2.8 billion budget shortfall Mr. McGreevey has said he must erase. +'Everybody was shocked,' said Kathleen Bird, who had been the spokeswoman for the planning office. Like the others, she received a letter telling her that her 'duties and obligation to report to work cease immediately' and that she would get two weeks' severance pay. Some of her colleagues wept, Ms. Bird said, and others were simply numb. +In a note of concern, champions of managing the state's rapid growth added that the cost in sprawl could be much greater if the planning office is left vacant. +'What McGreevey said was that these people are expendable, they're unnecessary or they're political hires,' said Barbara Lawrence, executive director of New Jersey Future, a controlled-growth advocacy group. 'But in the case of the Office of State Planning we are losing the best professionals you can hire. They are the brains behind the concept of smart growth in New Jersey.' +Mayors and managers of New Jersey's more than 500 municipalities have been left scratching their heads over the impact of Governor McGreevey's freeze in municipal aid, which towns and cities apply to abating their high property taxes. Officials in several wealthy towns said today that Mr. McGreevey's ample warning of a budget crisis prepared them to expect no additional help. But for large cities, where state aid accounts for a disproportionate share of municipal revenues, the prospect of a freeze brought a sense of foreboding. +New Brunswick, for example, had been counting on a 3 percent annual increase to keep up with inflation, said Thomas Loughlin, the city administrator. A freeze would amount to $510,000 lost, he said. 'We're going to feel the impact here, there's no question of that.' +Eric Maurer, business administrator for Morristown, was among the town officials who said they were in the dark about the impact of the governor's freeze in state aid levels. 'We're operating in an information vacuum,' he said. +Mr. Maurer said officials from the previous administration had promised Morristown a $100,000 increase in state aid, to $3.8 million. The town is already planning to raise the tax rate by an amount equal to $180 for a typical $200,000 home, he said. If state aid is frozen at the current $3.7 million aid level, that tax increase will grow by an additional $16. +In Newark, Mayor Sharpe James said his city received about a quarter of its $432 million budget from Trenton, but he did not know how much it would be hurt. 'Recognizing the budget crunch, all of us have to share in that pain,' he said. +A spokesman for Parsons Group said that it was ready to work with the new governor in examining the state's auto emissions testing contract, but that the engineering company was not prepared to reopen the contract, as Mr. McGreevey had suggested. Matching the discussion of the state's budget problems, Parsons seemed prepared to do the same as the newly empowered Democrats: blame the departed Republicans. +'We welcome the opportunity to work with the McGreevey administration to show how effective the system has been for New Jersey motorists,' said Bob Sommer, the spokesman. 'We could not agree with him more that some of the previous administration's contract specifications and a condensed time frame were the cause of many of the start-up problems, and they bear further review.'" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Agents Seize Cash In Raids on Aide To Newark Mayor +Escalating their inquiry into corruption in Newark, Federal agents raided the home and the City Hall office of a top aide to Mayor Sharpe James yesterday, and officials said they found tens of thousands of dollars in cash that the aide had been keeping.

Celester. +The cash was found at Mr. Mattison's home, people familiar with the raids said. +Mr. Mattison, a Democrat who won re-election to the Assembly on Tuesday, has been under investigation for more than a year, and one focus has been the fund raising he did for his election campaigns and those of Mr. James. Investigators have been examining whether money was siphoned from campaign accounts for the personal use of the Mayor or his aides. +After months of subpoenas, grand jury testimony and other behind-the-scenes maneuvering, the raids yesterday brought the investigation into the open. Though Mr. James's office was apparently not searched, Mr. Mattison is one of his closest advisers and the agents were not far from the Mayor's desk in City Hall. +Besides City Hall, the raids also jarred the neighborhoods around the homes of Mr. Mattison and Mr. Celester. Councilman Luis Quintana, who is not believed to be under investigation, said the activity around Mr. Celester's home on Parker Street yesterday afternoon was surprising. +""When I went to pick up my child from day care on Parker Street, near the Police Director's house, there were more than 20 official vehicles outside, with red lights on top,"" Mr. Quintana said. ""Guys were standing on the lawn in front of Mr. Celester's house. There must have been about 25 or 30 guys there."" +Mr. Quintana said he was told by Mr. Celester's deputy, Police Chief Thomas C. O'Reilly, that agents ordered Mr. Celester to leave his office during the investigation. +Mr. Celester's wife was taken to University Hospital during the raids, a hospital spokeswoman said, and she left after doctors advised her to remain for treatment. It was not known what her ailment was. +Investigators would not say where Mr. Mattison lived. His address and phone are not listed. +The investigation has focused on various top officials in Newark and has already yielded several convictions.Federal law-enforcement officials are examining the finances and fund-raising practices of Mr. James, and the inquiry into Mr. Mattison is believed to be tied to the case prosecutors are trying to build against Mr. James. +At City Hall yesterday, officials said little. Mr. Mattison, Mr. Celester and Mr. James could not be reached for comment, and many of their aides would not speak about the searches. +Detective Daniel Collins, a spokesman for Mr. Celester, said Federal agents removed cartons from police headquarters about 3:30 P.M., but he would not say what was in them. ""We are cooperating fully with Federal authorities,"" Mr. Collins said. +Pamela E. Goldstein, a spokeswoman for Mayor James, said he had instructed all members of his administration to assist law-enforcement officials in any way. +Faith S. Hochberg, the United States Attorney in Newark, and Larry R. C. Stephen, her chief deputy on corruption matters, refused to comment. +People with knowledge of the investigation, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said teams of agents with drug-sniffing dogs went to the homes of Mr. Celester and Mr. Mattison. +People familiar with the investigation gave varying estimates of the cash recovered from Mr. Mattison's home, but all said it was many tens of thousands of dollars. It was not known where the money came from. +Councilman Henry Martinez, who is not believed to be under investigation, said the searches were ""a dark day"" for Newark. +""Usually when the Federal Government conducts an operation such as this, they know what they are looking for,"" Mr. Martinez said. +The investigations of Mr. Mattison and Mr. Celester do not appear to be related." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Kidnapped Girl and Family Reunited +Four-year-old Kelly Gonzalez, who the police feared had been killed by kidnappers who abducted her eight days ago, stood with her mother before a battery of television cameras in the Police Chief's office today, tugging at a white stuffed duck and smiling shyly. +At 10:30 Tuesday night Kelly was found crying outside a bodega in northern Manhattan, eight days after gunmen posing as police officers took her from her Hackensack apartment. And now she was the centerpiece of a happy portrait with her mother and baby brother and the cause of a moment of deep relief for the police officers and Federal agents around them. +""I would say she's lucky to be alive,"" said Bruce Gebhardt, assistant special agent in charge of the Federal Bureau of Investigation's office in New Jersey. A 'Very Happy' Mother +A reporter asked Kelly in Spanish, the family's native language, whether she had missed her mother. +The girl nodded yes vigorously. +Her mother, Marleyda Alvarez, was asked, also in Spanish, what she had done with Kelly after they were reunited about 2:30 A.M. today at Police Headquarters here. +In a quivering voice, she said in Spanish: ""I bathed her. I haven't bathed her in a long time, and I slept with her."" Then, in English, she added that ""I feel very happy."" +Before appearing at the news conference, Kelly visited her father, Ruben Gonzalez, a suspected drug dealer, in his jail cell in Police Headquarters. 'Very Emotional' +""It was very emotional,"" said Lieut. Ron Natale of the Hackensack police, who directed the investigation with an F.B.I. agent, Edward Peterson. +The authorities believe a feud between Mr. Gonzalez and drug dealers led to the kidnapping. Mr. Gonzalez, 28, was jailed on Monday after the police found what Chief William Iurato called a ""multikilo"" cache of cocaine hidden in an apartment he leased here. +The two gunmen who seized Kelly on May 27 had gone to the family's apartment looking for Mr. Gonzalez and drugs, the police said. Finding neither, they fled with Kelly. +""They took the child for something he did, something he knows, or something he didn't do,"" Chief Iurato said. +Other than saying that Kelly was well treated, the police refused to divulge anything she had told them about her eight days in captivity. ""She was well cared for; she hadn't been thrown in a closet,"" Lieutenant Natale said. +He said doctors who examined her Tuesday night at the Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center in Manhattan found no sign of injury. Chief Iurato said investigators believed the girl had been kept in two places, the last one in the Bronx. He offered no other details. +Today, Kelly was wearing flowered-print shorts, a jersey with a decorative bow and a lacy pink hairband. The police said the kidnappers had provided the outfit prior to her release. +""I think this case is a prime example of the viciousness of drug trafficking we have in the United States,"" said Mr. Gebhardt, the F.B.I. agent. ""When you wrong a drug organization, they're going to respond in terms of killings, bombings or kidnappings."" +Before releasing Kelly, the kidnappers pinned notes to her clothing with her name and address and directions to her home via Interstate 80, which cuts through Hackensack about half a mile from the apartment, the police said. +The authorities had kept the kidnapping secret until about noon Tuesday. They had said they feared that publicizing the kidnapping could jeopardize the child. Today they speculated that the publicity prompted the release. +""I think that's a real good motivation,"" Mr. Gebhardt said. ""And maybe they got some heart and decided to release her.""" +False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"State's Top Court Voids Death Sentence +The New Jersey Supreme Court yesterday overturned the death sentence of a woman who admitted to killing a Haddon Heights police officer and an investigator from the Camden County Prosecutor's office in 1995, ruling that crucial information was never shown to the jury. +In May 1997, Leslie Ann Nelson was sentenced to death after pleading guilty to fatally shooting the officer, James Norcross, and the investigator, John McLaughlin, during a 14-hour stand-off at her home in Haddon Heights. Ms. Nelson, 40, also admitted to wounding Detective John Norcross, Officer Norcross's brother, during the standoff, which occurred when the authorities went to her home to confiscate several weapons. +In its ruling yesterday, the court said prosecutors should have informed the jury that Detective Norcross had filed a civil lawsuit during the sentencing hearing, charging that he was not adequately trained to handle the standoff. In her defense, Ms. Nelson's lawyers had also argued that the officers were unprepared to deal with the standoff. +Peter G. Verniero, the state Attorney General, said disclosure of the suit would not have affected the jury's decision. But the court agreed with Michael B. Jones, a lawyer for Ms. Nelson, who said jurors might have sentenced Ms. Nelson to life in prison had they known that one of the officers involved felt he was improperly trained. +The case will now be returned to Camden County Superior Court for a new sentencing trial. +Ms. Nelson, known as Glen Nelson until she underwent a sex change operation in 1992, was the only woman on New Jersey's death row.

William Escott of the Belleville Police Department. +'Somehow, the accelerator apparently got stuck and the car shot forward through the glass doors,' the lieutenant said. +He said the car traveled 100 feet inside the store, striking 13 people, strewing clothing, cameras and jewelry across the floor and leaving thick black skid marks. +One shopper, Barbara Urbanovick, 37, of Nutley, N.J., was pronounced dead at the scene, the police said. +One of the 12 who were injured, Dorothy Becker, 65, of Belleville, was taken to University Hospital in Newark, where she was in critical condition early today, officials said. Belleville, a community of 40,000 people, is just north of Newark. The store is in the center of town, on Main Street. +The other injured people were not immediately identified. They were taken to Clara Maass Medical Center in Belleville. Lew Gardner, a hospital spokesman, said three of them were suffering from leg and hip fractures. +The K Mart store was closed for repairs after the accident. +Lieutenant Escott said the car, which has an automatic transmission, was impounded for inspection. +He said Mr. Prosperi, who was alone in the car, had not been charged." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,"Police Task Force Recovers 2 Torahs Stolen From New Jersey Synagogue +The New York Police Department's Torah Task Force, a little known but highly effective squad that investigates thefts of the sacred Jewish scrolls, recovered two Torahs and their precious ornaments that were stolen last month from a synagogue in Englewood, N.J., the police said yesterday. The task force charged a man with possessing stolen property after he tried sell the scrolls on Tuesday night to an undercover detective in Manhattan. +The Torah scrolls, each of which contain the Five Books of Moses inscribed by hand in Hebrew, were stolen before dawn on Oct. 18 from Temple Emanu-El, a prominent synagogue that was led for nearly 30 years by Rabbi Arthur Hertzberg, the noted historian. +Each scroll is adorned with a breastplate and crown, made of inlaid silver and gold, which were drawn by Irvin Koons, the industrial designer, and handmade by artisans in Portugal. Temple officials estimated the value of the two scrolls and their handmade ornaments at $88,000. +Charlie Jones, 31, of 24 East 109th Street in Manhattan, was charged with possession of stolen property after he tried to sell the scrolls to an undercover detective on Tuesday night, the police said. In a search of his apartment, the police said they found a high-powered automatic handgun, so Mr. Jones was also charged with illegal possession of a weapon. The police said that Mr. Jones worked alone in stealing the Torahs and would be charged with burglary and theft in New Jersey. +Lieut. Scott Jenkins of the Englewood Police Department said that Mr. Jones claimed that he bought the Torahs at an estate sale, but that the police think he had been planning to rob Temple Emanu-El for about two years. +Investigators from the task force worked on the case with the Englewood Police Department and the Bergen County Prosecutor's office. At separate news conferences yesterday afternoon in Englewood and Manhattan, investigators said the task force had received at least two tips from informers saying that a man was trying to find a buyer for the two Torahs. +One informer said that a Manhattan rabbi, whom the authorities would not identify yesterday, had set up a meeting to see the Torahs on Sunday, Lieutenant Jenkins said. The Torah Task Force then called the rabbi, who agreed to cooperate with an undercover sting operation. As part of the sting, Detective Mordecai Dzikansky, who was raised as an Orthodox Jew, posed as another rabbi. +Detective Dzikansky, who has helped solve numerous Torah thefts, including a spree of them in 1992 and 1993, attended the meeting with Mr. Jones and said he would buy the Torahs for $20,000 after authenticating them. He left the meeting with the scrolls, two crowns and one breastplate. New Jersey investigators said Mr. Jones kept the remaining breastplate, which he traded for the money on Tuesday night. He was then arrested. +'The key to this investigation was the unique talents of Detective Dzikansky,' said Kevin P. Farrell, the chief of Manhattan detectives. +Chief Farrell praised the task force, which is headed by Lieut. George Pagan. 'This is certainly a unique crime, and fortunately we had the unique resources to address it,' the chief said. +Rabbi Geoffrey J. Haber of Temple Emanu-El appeared at both news conferences and said that his congregation was thankful and relieved to recover the Torahs. One crown appeared to have a small scratch and one Torah had its velvet protective mantle torn, he said, but otherwise they appeared to be in good condition. He said the Torahs would be inspected by a scribe to make sure that they had not been damaged. +'I am going to get teary eyed,' he said. 'We're overjoyed.' +Rabbi Haber also cited a passage from the Book of Psalms.

The deal, which included a $12.9 million cash grant from the state that was approved yesterday, has been criticized by community groups, environmentalists and some politicians who doubted that the company actually intended to leave New York. +Randy L. Levine, Deputy Mayor for economic development, said the deal would enable The Post to build a $200 million plant and transfer 400 valuable manufacturing jobs to the South Bronx from the company's printing plant on South Street, near the Brooklyn Bridge. City and state officials had feared that The Post would follow The Daily News to Jersey City, where that newspaper opened a printing plant last year. +But critics say The Daily News has had occasional problems transporting newspapers through the tunnels into Manhattan during the morning rush, a problem that would discourage other newspapers from moving operations to New Jersey. +'It's another case of the city and the state throwing away hard-earned tax dollars on a company that would not have left the city anyway,' said Franz S. Leichter, a State Senator from the Bronx. 'Certainly, The Daily News shows the folly of moving these kind of jobs to New Jersey.' +In addition to the $12.9 million grant from the Empire State Development Corporation, the deal brings The Post $4 million in sales tax breaks and $7.5 million in low-cost electricity from the New York State Power Authority. +'This is a great opportunity to keep and grow manufacturing jobs in the city,' Mr. Levine said. +The Post is not the only newspaper to obtain subsidies. In 1992, The New York Times got a benefit package worth more than $29 million for a new $315 million printing plant at College Point, Queens. The following year, The Daily News got more than $15 million in tax breaks from New Jersey to move its printing operations from Brooklyn to Jersey City. +The Post and its parent company, News America, have now gone to the bargaining table with New York officials twice in recent years. In 1996, the city granted News America a $20.7 million package for the company's new headquarters at 1211 Avenue of the Americas, at 47th Street, after it had threatened to move some employees outside New York. News America transferred 400 editorial employees at The Post to the midtown building from South Street. +Charles Millard, president of the city's Economic Development Corporation, said yesterday that News America had refused to include the printing plant in the original deal. +He said that the latest agreement with The Post cost a modest $9,600 per job to keep the Post printing plant in New York City, far less than the subsidy given The New York Times. 'We're getting jobs in the South Bronx for a good price,' Mr. Millard said. +Mr. Millard's calculations did not include both the value of the electricity from the State Power Authority and the $12.9 million in cash benefits granted by the state. All told, the deal to keep 400 manufacturing jobs cost taxpayers about $61,000 per full-time job. +The Post project would benefit further from millions of dollars in tax benefits and training grants that are available because the site of the new plant in the Bronx is within the city's Empowerment Zone. +The plant is to be built in what is known as the Harlem River Yards, in the Port Morris section of the Bronx, and the project also includes an adjacent eight-acre parcel where the Walnut Avenue bus depot sits. +The bus depot had been scheduled to close in two years, but the Post deal forced the Metropolitan Transportation Authority to move 220 buses to five depots in the Bronx and upper Manhattan and to spend an additional $1.6 million to speed the completion of a bus depot along the West Side Highway in Manhattan that will open when the Walnut Avenue depot closes. +Lawrence B. Reuter, president of New York City Transit, has acknowledged that it would cost more to run Bronx buses from a depot in Manhattan." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"McGreevey Drops Plan to Hold Meeting at Seton Hall After Abortion Foes Object +Bowing to a barrage of complaints by opponents of abortion, Gov. James E. McGreevey of New Jersey has decided not to hold the first of a series of town hall meetings at Seton Hall University, a Catholic school in South Orange, on Tuesday, the 29th anniversary of the Supreme Court's legalization of abortion. +Instead, Mr. McGreevey, a Catholic who has said he once opposed abortion but now supports the right of women to choose, will hold the 7 p.m. gathering at Montclair State University, Paul Aronsohn, his communications director, said last night, confirming a report in The Star-Ledger yesterday. +Mr. Aronsohn said the governor, who took office on Tuesday, had decided to change the site after the university and the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Newark had received numerous angry calls from abortion foes, who complained that the location was inappropriate, particularly on the anniversary of the Supreme Court's ruling in Roe v. Wade. +While it is unusual for a governor to act in response to criticism, aides to Mr. McGreevey -- whose abortion views have upset many Catholics -- said that his decision was not intended to convey any political or policy signals. +By changing the site, Mr. Aronsohn said, the governor merely hoped to spare Seton Hall and its president, Msgr. Robert Sheeran, from further criticism. Mr. McGreevey said that he had not been asked by the school or its president to change the site, and that his office had not realized the date's significance when the town hall meeting was scheduled. +Monsignor Sheeran, who has been criticized for allowing campus speakers regarded as soft on abortion, reiterated his own opposition to it, but defended Seton Hall's right to hear speakers of diverse opinions and insisted that holding the meeting was no endorsement of the governor's views. +'As this is a town meeting, the setting neither honors him nor supports his views,' he said in a statement. 'Rather, as a university -- and especially a Catholic one -- we are honoring our role as citizens who have the right to voice the concerns that arise out of our personal and faith commitments.' +About 300 people are expected to attend the meeting, at which the governor will answer questions on a range of topics." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,"New Jersey Loses Battle On Air Traffic +New Jersey lost and New York City won in the battle over aircraft noise with an all-but-final decision by the Federal Aviation Administration yesterday on flight patterns from the region's three major airports. The F.A.A. rejected a New Jersey proposal to reroute air traffic away from northern New Jersey's suburbs and send the planes out over the ocean instead. +The agency said the over-water routes favored by New Jersey citizens groups and the state's Congressional delegation were too dangerous and, in any case, would simply shift the noise over to the homes of people on the Jersey Shore. +Instead, the regulators recommended that the agency offer only a slight modification of the current flight patterns, which were adopted in 1987 as a solution to growing airplane congestion over the New York City region. The plan had the effect of stacking up low-altitude inbound and outbound air traffic over rural and suburban areas of northern New Jersey that until then had been relatively free of overflights. +If today's recommendations become the basis for a final decision in October -- and F.A.A. officials suggested yesterday that only a serious change in Federal policy would prevent that from happening -- the current flight rules would be modifed only slightly. The changes would involve steering 140 departing flights from Newark International, about a third of the daily total, away from their current path over Scotch Plains to a more southerly path over Raritan, in central New Jersey. +That modification is called the Solberg Mitigation Proposal, after a navigational beacon at Solberg, N.J, near the town of Raritan. +The recommendations were released yesterday in the final version of an environmental study report that New Jersey's Congressional delegation forced the F.A.A. to undertake in 1990. +The Congressional delegation and a vigorous northern New Jersey organization, called the New Jersey Citizens Against Aircraft Noise, reacted angrily to the F.A.A.'s conclusion that their plan, which would have sent most Newark flights over the ocean, was dangerous and would only have shifted noise to the southern part of the state. +""Bill Clinton went to the Pacific Northwest and took on the timber industry to save the spotted owl, but he would not take on the airline interests on an issue of deep concern to the people of New Jersey,"" said Michael Schatzki, a Bernardsville management consultant who heads an arm of the anti-noise movement, New Jersey Citizens for Environmental Research, which was also a part of the New Jersey effort. +""This is not good news,"" said Representative Rodney P. Frelinghuysen, a freshman Republican whose wealthy Morris County district underlies large sections of the flight patterns the F.A.A. wants to keep. +""And I must say, that in my dealings on the air noise problem, the F.A.A. epitomizes the arrogance that many citizens feel some Federal agencies have,"" Mr. Frelinghuysen continued. ""There has been tremendous anger on the part of my constituents on this issue."" +In New York City, however, officials were pleased that the aviation agency has evidently chosen to stay with existing flight patterns, and to reject an ocean route that would have had the effect of pushing flights from Kennedy International and La Guardia Airports over Brooklyn, Queens and the rest of Long Island. +""The Borough President has opposed the ill-conceived and unfair ocean routing proposal since it was initiated because, basically, it would limit the options for air controllers working at La Guardia and Kennedy,"" said Peter Managni, a deputy to Claire Schulman, the Queens Borough President, who strongly defended the current flight plan for the region. ""We look forward to seeing the ocean plan finally defeated."" +Aviation agency officials said their choices were limited because of an ever-increasing number of flights funnelling daily into the most constricted and congested airspace in the country. Accordingly, the officials chose to focus on the Solberg modification as at least a bit of good news for about 19,000 residents of Scotch Plains and Fanwood, in Union County, N.J., who would benefit by having about 140 Newark departures per day shunted to the south of them, leaving them to contend with about 240 departures from Newark. +""We are now on the fast track to providing relief for many of the state's residents"" said Barry Valentine, the F.A.A.'s assistant administrator for policy. ""In keeping with the Clinton Administration's open communications policy, we have worked closely with the public in addressing this extrememly complex issue."" +Representative Frank Pallone's Middlesex and Monmouth County district would be on the receiving end of the shifted flights, and his anger yesterday illustrated how hard it is to insulate the most densely populated section of the country from jet noise. +Mr. Pallone, a Democrat, said in a statement that he was ""strongly opposed"" to the F.A.A. recommendation, and like every other member of the state delegation who condemned yesterday's report, he promised to keep fighting the plan in Congress. +Although the fight over flight plans has been mostly technical until now -- the citizens groups even chartered a 747 to try out the ocean route -- it is likely to turn political with next year's elections. Members of the anti-noise movement said yesterday that they had organized a 30,000-member voting block and political action committee that would likely be Republican in nature, and intent on punishing President Clinton for yesterday's report. +Mr. Clinton carried New Jersey by 79,000 votes in 1992. +The movement is likely to try to recruit people like Barbara Fawley, of Boonton, which underlies four separate approach and departure paths into the New York area. She said yesterday that the roar of airplanes passing 4,000 feet overhead has all but driven her indoors. +""I used to enjoy watching the Mets games on T.V.,"" Mrs. Fawley said, ""but it got so I couldn't stand listening to noise from planes taking off from La Guardia on television, and then hear them again a few minutes later when they came over my house.""" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Trying to Make Some Sense Of That Syrupy Scent. Why? It's Thursday. +New Jersey has been accused of many things, and almost none have had to do with smelling sweet. +But when a strange, syrupy scent descended on parts of New York City and New Jersey twice (and possibly three times) in the fall, theories spread faster than warm Aunt Jemima on pancakes. Speculation fell on the Garden State, a historic center in the production of fragrance, flavor and hoary olfaction jokes. +'What disgusting smell doesn't come from New Jersey?' asked Michelle Collins, 24, a paralegal and blogger who lives at 111th Street and Broadway. She has been widely credited with writing first about the smell on her Web site, youcantmakeitup.blogspot.com. +The evidence appears to be mounting: the earliest recorded calls for the October incident came not from New York, but from New Jersey. And a recent odor pocket was noticed by several people in Hoboken. +In an unscientific poll conducted in October on the Web site for NY1, the cable channel, 40 percent of the respondents said they believed that the smell came from New Jersey (call it the 'bridge and tunnel theory'). +There are other theories, of course, ranging from a candy factory in Manhattan to at least a few half-serious worries in this age of terrorism that the smell represented something dangerous. +The smell came on at least two dates: Oct. 27 and Dec. 8, both Thursdays, in the late afternoon or early evening. +On both days, the barometric pressure was high, and the wind was blowing lightly from the west, about 10 miles an hour or less, according to data compiled by the Northeast Regional Climate Center at Cornell University. +Climate experts say that these atmospheric conditions often prompt what is called an inversion, a phenomenon common to the late fall and winter in New York that keeps pollution trapped at low altitudes. +Call logs for the New York City Department of Environmental Protection show that on Oct. 27, the first recorded complaints came from parts of New Jersey. A third occurrence of the smell came on Dec. 15, also a Thursday, when Hoboken residents who had noticed the odor previously claimed they smelled it again. +'Immediately, as soon as I arrived at the PATH train station, I noticed it off the bat,' said Sean Iaquinto, a telecommunications engineer who wrote about his experience on his blog. +On philly2hoboken.com, he said he turned to a person and asked: 'Do you happen to notice that kind of syrupy smell? And they nodded their head and said, 'Yeah.' ' +Government agencies said that they do not believe the scent is dangerous and that they did not receive any complaints that day, but a spokesman for the city environmental protection agency said the current theory is that it most likely came from New Jersey. +'It's food processing,' said Charles Sturcken, a spokesman for the city's environmental protection agency. +Mr. Sturcken said that this was 'based on common judgment of our air inspectors,' and that 'things do drift over often from Jersey.' +In New Jersey, in places like South Hackensack, Teterboro, Newark and North Bergen, the smells of ginseng or strawberry or rhubarb root often fill noses, and few give it a second thought. +As Eric Schlosser noted in his 2001 book, 'Fast Food Nation,' northern New Jersey produces 'about two-thirds of the flavor additives sold in the United States.' +The world's largest flavor company, International Flavor & Fragrances, has two plants in New Jersey, in Hazlet (Monmouth County) and Dayton (Middlesex County). +Veronique Ferval, the company's director of fragrance development, said that it was unlikely that her company produced the smell, but said she was thrilled with the idea. +'From our perspective, it's very positive,' she said. 'It could be a new form of art. Scent is really underpresented.' +While the company has its corporate offices at 57th Street and 10th Avenue in Manhattan, none of the employees could detect the smell. +'I work in a very strong-smelling environment,' Ms. Ferval said. +Chris Rutkowski, a chemist from Ridgefield Park, N.J., can often smell the factories in South Hackensack, a couple of miles away. +'You get maple syrup smell, you get strawberry flavor,' he said. 'The worst one of them is the artificial butter flavor. When it's concentrated, it'll make a skunk blush.' +On a recent afternoon drive to the area, a stop was made at Takasago, a maker of flavors for Japanese food in Teterboro, N.J. Though no smell could be detected around the plant, inside was a vaguely sweet but decidedly nonsyrupy smell. A secretary who answered the door said she was not familiar with the story and said she had smelled nothing funny. +Next it was on to a plant named Naturex/Pure World, a French-owned business located on a stretch of road in South Hackensack crammed with factories and warehouses. The green-colored factory looms on a stretch of road near Route 80. From afar, the air smelled faintly sweet, like strawberry. +Through the gates and into the parking lot, the smell became muskier, until at the front door, an earthy scent could be detected, like ginseng. +A helpful secretary named Louise said that the production manager was too busy to talk, but that when she interviewed for the job about a month ago, she was convinced that someone was having 'a delicious breakfast' until she realized that the building was extracting flavors that day. +Promotional material from the company lists hundreds of extract products, including maple bark, brussels sprouts, elderberry, dandelion root, horse chestnut seed and something called buchu leaf (an herb product that purportedly helps with incontinence and urinary tract problems). +In a telephone interview, the president of the company, Jacques Dikansky, said the company dries vanilla and almond nearly every day but noted: 'We don't do maple syrup, for sure. And I don't see a product that's close to a maple syrup.' +As far as he could tell, there were no production problems at the plant in recent months that could account for any lingering smell. +New Jersey's Department of Environmental Protection has responded to complaints regarding the smell, mainly in Bergen County and the Meadowlands area, but with little success. +'Over the past month we've investigated a number of flavor and fragrance facilities, but we've been unable to verify the source,' said Karen Hershey, a spokeswoman for the department. +Unlike New York, which uses meters to determine whether toxins are present in the air, New Jersey is decidedly low-tech. Investigators use their noses. +'Tracing it back can be challenging,' Ms. Hershey said. +A spokesman for the Bergen County executive's office said that when smells were reported, the county investigated 'the usual suspects' -- the flavor and fragrance companies in the southern part of the county -- but were unable to determine who or what, exactly, was producing it. +On Dec. 8, Erich Rastetter said, he was driving home to New York from flying lessons in Lincoln Park, N.J., when he was hit by the smell on Route 80 near Teaneck. +'It was really cold that day, and I had the heat on full blast,' said Mr. Rastetter, a computer network administrator who lives on Ninth Avenue in Manhattan and also detected the smell in October. 'I remember this blast of really sweet, really strong smell, and I kind of smiled and it kind of came together, that it was the smell.' +He said he opened the windows of his car to make sure it wasn't coming from inside. 'It only lasted like two or three minutes,' hesaid. 'As soon as I went past that roll in the road, it started disappearing fairly quickly.' +Patrick L. Kinney, a professor of environmental sciences at Columbia University and an expert on air pollution, said that while it's 'hard to fathom' that the scent could come from one source, it is in the realm of possibility. +'Clearly it's some kind of sweet production facility that's doing its thing,' he said, adding that the smell is being aided by atmospheric conditions. +Ms. Collins, the paralegal, said she had thought she might be going crazy when she first smelled the odor in October, but realized other people outside her building were talking about it. 'I thought: 'This is it. The terrorists are going to get us with the maple syrup smell.'

Christine Todd Whitman today signed three related bills that would toughen penalties for preying on children, for criminal trespassing at schools and for luring children into buildings or isolated areas. +Mrs. Whitman said she supported the aims of the bills in the proposed package and would sign them if they are ""constitutional and uniform."" But she stressed the need for rehabilitation, especially for juvenile offenders, who she said should not spend the rest of their lives behind bars. +The proposed laws, which would be among the most stringent in the country if enacted, are being given priority over other legislation in response to widespread public anger over the deaths of two young girls at the hands of two male neighbors whose prior sex offenses were not known to the people living nearby. Shifting Burden of Proof +The Senate President, Donald T. DiFrancesco, said the public anger was reflected in the feelings of lawmakers in both houses and he promised, ""We will use our anger and your own as a catalyst for change -- serious, meaningful change of the laws governing sex offenders."" +The most sweeping change would shift the burden of proof to the sex offender and subject him to an indefinite-to-life term that would make a condition of any release an ability to convince officials that he has been rehabilitated. +Although it was not mentioned at the news conference conducted by Mr. DiFrancesco and the Assembly Speaker, Chuck Haytaian, offenders could agree, as a condition of release, to ""chemical castration,"" a program of taking drugs that inhibit the libido, said Andrew K. Ruotolo Jr., the Union County prosecutor who advised Mr. DiFrancesco in preparing the bills. +Mr. Haytaian said his house would pass the package on Aug. 29 when it returns from its summer break. Mr. DiFrancesco said some of the bills would be given a public hearing by the Senate Judiciary Committee on Aug. 22. On Parole for Life +If an offender wins release under the new system, he would be on parole for the rest of his life, and be required to report his whereabouts every 30 days. Police officials in the town where he moves would be alerted and asked to notify residents in his neighborhood of his presence. +Other bills in the package would increase the sentence for aggravated sexual assault on someone 16 or younger to 30 years to life, from the current penalty of 10 to 20 years; allow the involuntary commitment to a psychiatric hospital of sexual offenders deemed dangerous even after they serve their maximum prison sentence, and make the murder of a child a crime punishable by death. +Mrs. Whitman said her administration has prepared a bill on sex-offender registration that would require anyone released after serving a sentence for a sex crime to register with the police department of the town where he moves, or the state police, if the town has no police force. +The Governor said she had asked the Attorney General, Deborah T. Poritz, to try to establish a cooperative agreement with other states that have laws on notification and registration so that New Jersey could be alerted if a sex offender decided to move into the state. +The two recent cases that have heightened public anxiety over the unsupervised release of convicted sex offenders were the sexual assaults and killings of Amanda Wengert, 6, of Manalapan in March, and Megan Kanka, 7, of Hamilton Township last month.

Donald T. DiFrancesco. +The new benefit is patterned after the state's low-income prescription plan, which requires only a small co-payment for prescriptions. The law signed today, for the elderly or disabled, helps pay for prescriptions for couples who make up to $33,589 and for single people who earn up to $29,238. But unlike the low-income plan, these beneficiaries will pay a $15 co-payment plus half the cost of the prescription until they have spent $3,000 in a year. From that point, they would pay only the $15 co-payment for the rest of the year. +'Back in 1975, New Jersey was the first state to provide a prescription drug plan for low-income seniors,' Mr. DiFrancesco said at a bill-signing ceremony in Lodi today. +'And now, in 2001, we are yet again in the national forefront of pharmaceutical assistance plans with our middle-income Senior Gold program.' +The first person to sign up for the new program was Helen Yezefski of Lodi, who declined to give her age except to say she met the age 65 threshold, and who said she had been spending between $300 and $400 a month on prescriptions. +'Medication is so expensive, and I am living alone on a fixed income with bills to pay, so some months it's very hard to get by,' Ms. Yezefski said. 'Hopefully with this plan I won't have to worry so much about the other bills each month.' The program will be paid for with the $7.6 billion that New Jersey expects to receive over the next 25 years from the national tobacco settlement. It was one of the key elements in Mr. DiFrancesco's legislative agenda when he took over as acting governor, and when he was still an active candidate for election to a full term next fall. Mr. DiFrancesco has since dropped out of the governor's race. +State officials said applications would be available at pharmacies, state offices and centers for the elderly.

'I hate to think of it, but it's coming our way.' +Brookdale, believed to be New Jersey's oldest farm, is 10 miles southeast of Trenton in Burlington County, in a setting of rolling hills, horses, cattle and the brick manor house where Anthony Taylor, grandson of an English immigrant, built his home. +The families gathered here to be honored by the Secretaries of Agriculture from 10 Northeast states for persevering with farming. The ceremony was part of the observance of the bicentennial of the United States Constitution. +Some of the families still farm their own land, while others rent it out. All of them, like Mr. Wallace, had some tale to recall in emphasizing the importance of their farms to their families and in some cases to American history. +The British visited Brookdale Farm during the Revolution and because they were treated so well, they did not burn the house, Mr. Wallace said. +At the Merino Hill Farm in Upper Freehold Township in Monmouth County, part of the house has a false ceiling, where it is believed slaves were hidden as part of the 'underground railway' during the Civil War. And at the Pitney Farm in Mendham in Morris County, a script etched on a windowpane, which can still be read, honors a relative of the Pitney family for fighting at Williamsburg in the Civil War. +To many of the families, it was a sentimental ceremony. Then the issue came up of whether the past would help insure the future. New Jersey, one of the largest farm states in the Northeast, is losing 20,000 to 30,000 acres of farmland each year, said Arthur Brown, the state's Secretary of Agriculture. 'When you only have close to one million acres, that's a lot,' he said. +According to state figures, farming is a $600 million industry in New Jersey, with the No. 1 product being nursery sod and greenhouse material. In 1987, there were 7,600 farms in the state, down from 8,600 in 1977. As a result, he said, New Jersey has instituted an 'expensive' program to help farmers hold on to their land. 'Fighting Lots of Battles' +Joseph Taylor, whose children are the 11th generation to own River Side Homestead Farm in Burlington County along the Delaware River, agreed. +Once, he said, he was able to concentrate on farming almost exclusively. These days, he added, he is busy 'fighting lots of battles with people wanting to build high-rise condos.' And he has to attend many planning board meetings to oppose housing development on farmland near his farm. But it is possible, he said, to coexist with the new type of nonfarming resident beginning to live on what used to be farmland. Farmers just have to adjust. Today, only about 120 acres of land remain at River Side, and fruits, vegetables, hay and straw are still grown on his farm as they were in the 1720's, he said. But now about 90 percent of the crops are sold as a pick-your-own operation. +Mr. Brown agreed. He said agriculture would continue to change and New Jersey would see more greenhouses and container nurseries to serve the needs of the state's rising population." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,"New Jersey's New Law May Let Parents Choose Schools +By tucking a single sentence into the 72-page school financing bill that she signed this month, Gov. Christine Todd Whitman hopes that New Jersey parents will soon be sending their children to the public schools of their choice. +The sentence -- which could significantly change how children are educated in New Jersey by allowing them to attend classes outside their home districts, with state aid covering the cost -- apparently was overlooked by state legislators as they debated the school bill over several months. +Educators, school officials and politicians involved with the school legislation were trying over the weekend to understand the meaning of the change in the law and how it would work. Some were stunned by how such a change could happen with no debate, and a few expressed concern that it would drain money and talented students from troubled school districts. +'It is a major policy change and it needs full review and discussion,' said Lynne Strickland, executive director of the Garden State Coalition of Schools, which represents 122 school districts. 'Unfortunately, it appears to be a way to get something controversial passed through the first gate.' +Administration officials included the sentence in the original draft of the school financing bill. But several people involved in hearings on the bill said yesterday that administration officials had never pointed out the sentence, which appears in a section that provides definitions of the bill's terms. And even Republican legislators who helped Mrs. Whitman get the bill passed said they had not known it was there. +'I don't remember any discussion about it whatsoever,' Senator John H. Ewing, a Republican who is chairman of the Senate Education Committee, said in an interview with The Star-Ledger. +According to the Whitman administration, the sentence authorizes the state's education commissioner to set specific guidelines so that students can attend the public schools of their choice -- a concept that Mrs. Whitman has supported since she ran for governor in 1993. +Students can already attend other schools outside their home district, but they must pay tuition, said Peter Peretzman, a spokesman for Education Commissioner Leo F. Klagholz. Under the new law, parents could send their children to another school for free, Mr. Peretzman said, because the state would pay instead. School districts would participate in the program on a voluntary basis, he said. +Becky Taylor, a spokeswoman for Governor Whitman, said Sunday that she did not know why there had been no public debate. 'It was a very complicated bill,' she said. 'There were so many issues. I guess people just focused on other issues.' +In 1993, Mrs. Whitman campaigned on a pledge to bring more choice to parents who send their children to public schools. After she won, she called for a voucher system that would provide parents with tax money to send their children to private or parochial schools, but she could not muster support from legislators. +'Governor Whitman really believes if there is more competition and parents have more choice about where to send their children, our schools will ultimately be better for it,' Ms. Taylor said. 'It's really terrible to think parents would be faced with the prospect of having to sell their homes just to chase after the best schools.' +Ms. Taylor said that Mr. Klagholz would probably test the concept in a pilot program involving a handful of districts around the state before making it available to all students. She said she did not recall whether Mrs. Whitman had spoken publicly about the sentence before it became law, but added that it had been part of the legislation since it was introduced more than a year ago. +'She has talked about school choice and competition for the last three years,' Ms. Taylor said. +The sentence, which appears on page 6 of the 72-page bill, in a section that defines 'resident enrollment,' reads, 'Beginning in 1997-98 and thereafter, resident enrollment shall also include those nonresident children who are permitted to enroll in the educational program without payment of tuition as part of a voluntary program of inter-district public school choice approved by the commissioner.' +David G. Sciarra, executive director at the Education Law Center, questioned whether that sentence was enough to give Mr. Klagholz the power to enact a system of public school choice. 'I'm not sure the commissioner has the legal authority to do this anyway,' Mr. Sciarra said. 'That's a major question.' +And if the provision was legal, Mr. Sciarra said he feared the state's poorest performing districts could lose both money and their brightest students under the law. +But Mr. Peretzman said that would not happen. 'We're in no way interested in harming school districts,' he said. +Some educators and Democrats said yesterday that they supported the concept of giving parents more choice when sending their children to public schools.

And what a celebrity. Robert Leathers has built 450 playgrounds all over America. (How do you get a job like that, they wanted to know. Might as well be eating ice cream for a living.) At each school he mobilizes hundreds of children and parent volunteers, showing them how to construct a playground in practically no time for a fraction of the normal cost. He's even been featured on Mr. Rogers. +For weeks they had been preparing for his visit. Yesterday was the big first step, Design Day. Each child had a chance to give his ideas for the playground and in just hours the celebrity architect would draw a blueprint. +They had prepared their own designs for him, full of castles and haunted houses and octopus swings. Adam Andrew had been bringing in fresh designs daily. Kate Roetzer's design, a horse tunnel leading to a castle, was completely annotated. 'Give horse some furry hair to touch,' she wrote. 'Don't make points on castle too sharp.' Mark Arrgbito's sketch included stick figures saying 'Wee, wee, that was fun.' +They were shocked to learn how long the actual building would take. The first graders guessed 10 months, the second grade a year. Christian Crews, a third grader, said, 'Until we get to sixth grade.' (He apparently thought New York City was doing the building.) 'We'll build it in four days,' said Paula Weiss, one of the celebrity architect's assistants. The first graders laughed, second graders applauded. Josh Bohannon, one of the oldest, a fifth grader, shouted, 'I knew it!' When Ms. Weiss asked, 'Who would be enthusiastic to build?' Allan Alston said, 'Me. I'm in it! Yo!' It turns out that celebrity architects are just as tightly scheduled as normal celebrities. Mr. Leathers has this down to a science. Even with all the volunteers, a playground can cost $40,000, usually raised through parents' fund drives. To cut costs, he reduces his professional staff's time. +His people met with each class for 13 minutes. To prepare them for Design Day, he gives out pages of instructions, including where to place the pencil sharpener. He arrived at 8:35. 'I just came from California,' he said, 'and I'm headed for California.' He hadn't taken off his coat when he said, 'I have two ideas already.' First he met parents. One asked if they could build by spring. 'Spring was booked a long time ago,' he said. He suggested fall, though that wasn't sure. 'I have 40 waiting for fall.' +While he sketched in the cafeteria, assistants ran from class to class, collecting ideas. 'You could have an ice cream slide,' said Lonnie Caine, a second grader. A few laughed, but when they saw an assistant making notes, they stopped. Maybe Lonnie had something there. +Aaron Pinsley wanted a volcano with spraying sand, Elizabeth Nauman wanted a wiggly bridge. As Ms. Weiss rushed out. Kelly Sands chased her. 'Can you put in a fun house?' Kelly asked. Not all ideas were practical. Several wanted a seesaw, but Ms. Weiss said they're unsafe. +Meanwhile, Mr. Leathers sketched madly, making notes in the margin like, 'ice cream cone slide,' 'octopus swing.' Students filed into the cafeteria for lunch - pizza and potato soup - but Mr. Leathers rarely looked up. Once he raised his head to tell a parent, he needed 'absolutely precise, accurate' directions back to his Ithaca office. +An assistant, Barry Segal, explained the design to groups of kids. 'If you get tired of being in the castle,' he said, 'right outside is an obstacle course.' Mr. Leathers paused to sharpen his pencil; everyone became quiet and watched. +'If you take a left-hand turn,' said Mr. Segal, 'here's a swing platform. Next to that's a pirate ship. Then you can run to the gigantic castle.' There was a lot more going on in the drawing, but finally, Mr. Segal said, 'then you'll slide out the mouth of the dragon. O.K.? Next group.' 'Excuse me,' said Melissa Longo, 'which one's Mr. Leathers?' (She had a last-minute volcano design for him; an assistant took it.) Rebecca Fernandez picked her up so she could get a better look at Mr. Leathers. +They were excited to see their ideas on the blueprint. Christina Corcoran had suggested two slides coming out of an ice cream cone. 'Look,' said Jacqueline Lora, 'Christina's idea.' +At 11:36 Mr. Leathers got the exact directions and in three minutes he was gone. There were many more meetings, deep into the night, mainly to discuss months of fund raising. They were learning that it's one thing to have a celebrity playground plan, and another thing to pay for it.

Those include $11.5 million after a blast at the IMC Fertilizer and Angus Chemical plant in Sterlington, La., that killed eight workers in May 1991 and $8.2 million against a Citgo Petroleum refinery in Lake Charles, La., three months earlier. +The stiffest penalty in Lodi, for $70,000, was for the ""willful failure"" of Napp to train the company fire brigade adequately, OSHA officials said. The rest of the fine was for 16 other violations, including poor emergency operations and the absence of protective clothing and equipment for the workers. +Officials at the regional OSHA office here said they could not order tougher fines because the safety standard for mixing chemicals did not specifically mention the two volatile chemicals that erupted in the five-ton vat at Lodi. ""Had the chemicals been covered, the magnitude of the citations and penalties could have been higher,"" the regional OSHA director, Efraim Zoldan, said. ""It's very sad we could not apply the standard."" +Had the Federal standard listed the chemicals, sodium hydrosulfite and aluminum powder, the fines could have run into the millions. +In Washington, an assistant labor secretary, Joseph A. Dear, instructed his staff to re-examine the standard for ""process-safety management,"" to consider adding the chemicals and how they react when mixed. ""This tragedy is the result of multiple mistakes and mismanagement that unfortunately were not covered by specific OSHA standards,"" Mr. Dear said in a statement. +Mr. Dear and New Jersey labor leaders were disturbed by the penalty and criticized efforts by Republicans in Congress to cut the OSHA budget, reduce its force of factory inspectors and soften regulations. +""For OSHA to reopen its standards is a stark indicator of the weakness in basic regulations for chemical industry safety,"" said Eric Frumin, regional health and safety director of the New York-New Jersey Regional Board of the Union of Needletrades, Industrial and Textile Employees, which represented the workers at Napp. +In a statement, the company denied violating OSHA standards or requirements. ""Napp will vigorously contest the unfounded allegations contained in this notice and is confident that the company will be completely vindicated,"" a spokesman, Jon Holt, said in the statement. +Napp has 15 days to file an appeal. +The plant, which the explosion demolished, was part of a pharmaceutical business controlled by three brothers, Raymond, Mortimer and Arthur Sackler. Their largest holding is the Purdue Frederick Company of Norwalk, Conn. That company has sales of $400 million a year. +The blast in April occurred 12 hours after workers began mixing 8,000 pounds of sodium hydrosulfite, 1,000 pounds of aluminum powder and potassium carbonate and benzaldehyde to produce a substance that extracts gold from raw materials. At an early point, a tube to the vat clogged, and workers used water to try to clear it, according to an investigation by Prosecutor Charles Buckley of Bergen County. +Mr. Buckley's office said neither the crew operating the vat nor the overnight crew that replaced it did anything to halt the volatile reaction in the mix, even though a powerful odor of rotten eggs -- a danger sign -- filled the blending room. Shortly after the day crew arrived the next morning, the workers were removed. Several minutes later, 13 workers were asked to re-enter and none objected, said Mr. Zoldan, who would not identify the executive who made that request. +Some workers were instructed to begin emptying the chemicals from the vat into 55-gallon drums. Others, members of the fire brigade, were told to prepare hoses in case of an explosion. The blast a few minutes later killed 5 workers and hurled the huge vat through a wall into a parking lot 50 feet from its original spot." +False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Man Sentenced to Prison For Death of a Friend +A New Gretna man has been sentenced to five years in prison for driving while intoxicated and causing an accident that killed one of his friends, county prosecutors said yesterday. +The man, Kenneth Rose, 37, pleaded guilty to vehicular homicide in the death of James Merrill, 42, of Tuckerton, on Oct. 25, 1997.

Transit train from Manhattan had arrived just 25 feet from Lagoda's back door and now sat powerless on the track as a crew spent 10 minutes coupling a diesel locomotive to it. At 1:28 A.M. Saturday, if all goes according to plan, this is to happen for the last time. +As the train stopped today, scores of commuters hurried into the bar, grabbed a beer or soft drink from the icebox, plunked down some money and rushed back to the train for the rest of the trip home. Others jumped off to light a cigarette, since smoking is forbidden on all N.J. Transit lines. This scene has been repeated hundreds of times during the past decades at Lagoda's and another bar nearby, the Landmark. But the use of diesel is to end this weekend on the North Jersey Coast Line from New York to Long Branch. Change Will Hurt Bars +The switch to electricity means that trains from New York will no longer have to stop here to switch over to diesel, and trains from Long Branch will not have to stop to switch to electricity on the way north to New York. +Instead, they will stop only briefly before speeding on to Newark or New York City, and the beverage stops at Lagoda's and the Landmark and the smoking on the platforms will be merely memories. +For George Fuller, the bartender at Lagoda's, the change will hurt. Those 10 minutes per train have translated into a sizable infusion of cash for a saloon in an economically depressed blue-collar town. +'It's going to be bad for business,' he said as he collected another dollar for a beer. 'But we're hoping that some of them are so used to us that they will get off and maybe have two beers and wait for the next train.' #18 Minutes Trimmed Many commuters, though, were looking forward more to the time saved than the chance to wait for a second train. As it is, by the time they arrive here on their way home, most riders have already been en route from 43 minutes to an hour. +Now, with the stopover cancelled and the trains accelerating faster under electic power than they do behind a diesel locomotive, riders will save up to 18 minutes each way on their daily commute, N.J. Transit officials said. For many of the line's 12,000 riders, the evening trip is a time for sleeping; their coats, crisply pressed during the morning, are thrown haphazardly on the overhead racks. Others read or play cards. Talk is minimal. +But as the train approaches South Amboy, there is an abrupt change in atmosphere. +It stops, and a tide rushes out the doors. Mr. Fuller runs behind the cash register as the 'shufflers' - so called by the regulars because of their quick steps - flock to the refrigerators. #10-Minute Happy Hour With one hand, Mr. Fuller collects money; with the other, he mixes drinks. Then, after 10 minutes, the train swallows the drinkers again, and Lagoda's regulars return to talking, joking and watching television. +But after this weekend, many riders said, it is unlikely they will stick to their 10-minute happy hour. +'Who needs this wait?' said one. 'Let's get home on time.' 'I'd rather get home earlier and have my Diet Pepsi and chips at home,' said Jack Diamond, a structural engineer from Little Silver who works in Manhattan. 'It's going to be a big improvement and will cut down a lot on my commuting time.' +'Time is more important to me,' said Joseph Farrell, a consultant who was sipping a beer and talking with Robert Gorgone, a sales manager. Project Planned Since 1960's +The three-year, $97-million modernization project was first promised in the late 1960's. Back then, voters approved a $42 million bond issue to extend electrification to Bay Head, the end of the line, about 67 miles from New York City. +But ultimately, the new project added only 16 miles of electrification, from South Amboy south to Long Branch, including the stops at Little Silver, Red Bank, Middletown, Hazlet and Matawan. Electrification for the rest of the line is still being studied. +Previously, electrical service had only been essential into New York City because the trains had to go through tunnels to get there. +Transit officials said electrification will allow them to add up to 19 more trips to New York on weekdays from most stations." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,"In a Final Push, Gubernatorial Candidates Seek Black and Hispanic Support +With only three days left before Tuesday's primary, the three Democratic candidates seeking the nomination to challenge Gov. Christine Todd Whitman this fall reached out today to black and Hispanic voters from Newark to Camden. +'We cannot win in the fall if our base is not solid,' said Representative Robert E. Andrews, of Haddon Heights, whose black and Hispanic supporters here organized a motorcade with more than 30 cars and vans through the city's streets this morning, awakening residents with sound trucks blaring, 'Support Rob Andrews for governor.' +In Newark, both Michael Murphy and State Senator James E. McGreevey courted black voters at a candidates' forum organized by the N.A.A.C.P. at the Abyssinia Baptist Church in Newark. +Taking turns responding to questions from about 40 people, both Mr. Murphy and Mr. McGreevey vowed to end the state takeover of the Newark public school system, if elected. +'The day of my oath of office will be the last day of Dr. Beverly Hall,' said Mr. McGreevey, referring to the state-appointed school superintendent of the Newark public schools. +And Mr. Murphy said that he wanted 'to return the school system to the parents and the people.' +'I want you to know that I am on line F,' he said, referring to his ballot position in Essex County, 'and that stands for faith.' +'I am not the choice of the bosses,' said Mr. Murphy, whose opponents have better positions on the ballot. 'But I hope to be the choice of the people.' +Governor Whitman has also been stepping up her appearances in the state's cities in recent months in an effort to sway black and Hispanic voters, who are expected to play a critical role in this fall's general election. In last year's Senate race, 12 percent of the 3.1 million New Jerseyans who voted were black residents, helping United States Senator Robert G. Torricelli, a Democrat, win by a substantial margin of 300,000 votes. +During the last gubernatorial race, in 1993, former Gov. Jim Florio lost to Governor Whitman by only 26,000 votes, in part because turnout among black voters was low and 25 percent of the black vote, representing 50,000 votes, went to Mrs. Whitman. +Trying to make sure that Governor Whitman does not fare well with black and Hispanic voters this time, all three candidates have devoted considerable attention in the last three weeks to them, making appearances at black churches and meeting with community groups. +Mr. McGreevey also made stops today at the Black Masons Breakfast in Somerset, a prayer breakfast at the Christina Pentecostal Church in Newark, and the Haitian Political Action Committee meeting in Orange. +He then took his campaign to southern New Jersey, venturing into the heart of Mr. Andrews' political base in Camden County. +Mr. McGreevey picked up the endorsement of Milton Milan, the newly elected Mayor of Camden, surprising the Andrews campaign and some of Mr. Milan's longtime friends in Camden. They said that they did not understand why Mr. Milan turned his back on Mr. Andrews, who has represented Camden as a Freeholder and as a United States Representative since 1988. +'It is really a mystery,' said Angel Fuentes, a member of the Camden City Council who helped organize the motorcade on Mr. Andrews's behalf today. 'Every time we have turned to Rob Andrews, he has helped us. That is why we are working very hard to help him today. What has Mr. McGreevey done for Camden?' +Mr. Milan said that he got to know Mr. McGreevey during the Democratic National Convention last summer, and he believes that Mr. McGreevey offers a better vision, particularly on education, than Mr. Andrews or Mr. Murphy. +Mr. McGreevey said that he believes Mr. Milan represents a 'distinct change in the leadership of the city' and that his endorsement will help him win votes there. +But Mr. Andrews, in between campaign stops in Camden, dismissed the political impact of Mr. Milan's endorsement. He waved toward the dozens of his supporters, many of whom had voted for Mr. Milan. +'This is Milton Milan's campaign,' he said. 'These are the local Hispanic leaders of Camden here.

Jon S. Corzine. +Trenton's lawmakers -- all of them up for re-election next year -- surely have great incentive to make some of the recently concluded special session's more significant proposals a reality. +But their attempt will probably depend on the endorsement of Mr. Corzine, who has expressed wariness about the fiscal viability of the most high-profile proposal -- a 20 percent property tax credit for most homeowners. +Even as the Legislature crowed about the tax credit last week, Mr. Corzine made it clear during an address before the state League of Municipalities' convention in Atlantic City that he was concerned about the lack of details on how the state would pay for it in the years to come. +For their part, the legislators acknowledged that they were still not sure what the income cutoff would be for taxpayers to reap the full benefits of the credit; the current cutoff is $200,000 annual household income. They said they would pay for the program by scrapping the current rebate programs and combining that money with revenue from half of the one percentage point increase in the state's sales tax that was enacted during the summer. +But the use of the sales tax for property tax relief is limited to one year only. Among the others proposals is one to sell the state's highways and the lottery system, which many feel would generate only short-term revenues. But the Legislature's plan does not include a way to pay for the credit beyond the next two years, something that Mr. Corzine alluded to in his speech on Thursday, where he nudged lawmakers to smooth the proposal's raw edges before submitting it for his signature. +'The effort to provide immediate property tax relief cannot be done by creating a giant hole for future budgets,' Mr. Corzine said. +Lawmakers said they hoped to have the most significant proposals in place by year's end. +The thinking of Mr. Corzine, a Democrat, seemed like a low-calorie version of the perspective offered by Republicans like State Senator Leonard Lance, the minority leader, who shortly after the governor's speech said he was 'gravely concerned about the sustainability' of components of the property tax overhaul plan. +Indeed, Mr. Corzine used a version of the word 'sustainability' six times in his 25-minute address. +Such concerns underscore the delicate balance that Mr. Corzine must strike between the executive branch and his colleagues in the Democratic-controlled Legislature: how to reap the electoral benefits of addressing the property tax issue in the short term while maintaining fiscal responsibility far into the future. +'Governor Corzine is thinking about the long term, the need for balanced budgets, the need for fiscal integrity,' said David Rebovich, of the Institute for New Jersey Politics at Rider University. 'While the Legislature -- and I say this gently -- they just want to get through the election. You know: 'How big is the check going to be so I can put it on a campaign brochure?' ' +Since the special session began in July, few could argue that the Legislature had not grasped the political stakes surrounding property taxes, which polls have shown to be among the most volatile issues for state residents. +With its homeowners paying an average of $6,000 annually, New Jersey has the highest property tax rate in the country and twice the national average. +The 20 percent credit would shave about $1,200 a year off of the typical bill. +With all of the 120 seats in the Legislature in play next November, Mr. Rebovich said lawmakers had to look only as far as this month's election results to recognize the possible consequences of seeming tone-deaf. +'The Republican-controlled Congress didn't listen to the voices in the wind about the war in Iraq,' he said. 'I think New Jersey lawmakers are saying, 'We don't want to do that regarding property taxes. We can't fudge our way through another year. These people expect some gosh-darn relief.' ' +The effectiveness of the proposals cannot be fully evaluated until finishing touches are put on the legislation that will be drafted over the next several weeks. +Still, some said that the recommendations raised more than their share of questions. +'My concern is how do we make the numbers work?' said Henry Coleman, a professor of public policy at Rutgers University, noting that a 20 percent reduction in property taxes would leave a $4 billion hole in the budget. +Mr. Coleman wondered whether the state could save enough through efforts like consolidating municipal and educational services and revising school financing -- other recommendations made in the special session -- to make up for the shortfall. To most lawmakers, the word consolidation seems more like a poison pill than a remedy. +'I am a little bit leery that we are promising so significant an amount of money potentially in property taxes savings from those types of things,' he said. +Mr. Coleman urged lawmakers to 'think comprehensively.' +'If we keep looking for one thing or one or two things to do,' Mr. Coleman said, 'we're almost guaranteed not to get where we want to go.' +In which case Mr. Corzine has a few highways to sell. +POLITICAL MEMO" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Behind Tax Pledge: How the Numbers Came Up for Whitman +The news came on Jan. 4 in a low-key way, just the State Treasurer wrapping up another tedious budget briefing with the words, ""So, Governor, if you want to do it, my feeling is that the revenue is going to be there to cover the whole fifteen."" +No one seated around the conference table in Gov. Christine Todd Whitman's murky, wood-paneled office needed to be told what the full fifteen was, nor its political significance. +Even some in her own party had scoffed during her run for office 16 months ago when she had pledged to cut state income taxes 30 percent in three years, and now, with the Jan. 4 numbers, it was looking as if they might be able to deliver the promise in two years. +State Treasurer Brian W. Clymer had been churning out computerized budget projections for nearly three months by the time of that Jan. 4 meeting. He was tracking the course of New Jersey's tax receipts like an astronomer following a rogue comet. He kept factoring in income tax cuts of 5 percent, 10 percent and the full 15, the cut that would complete Governor Whitman's 30 percent tax-cut pledge a year early. +Peter Verniero, Mrs. Whitman's chief counsel, sat at the table, along with Judith L. Shaw, the chief of staff, and Jane M. Kenny, director of policy and planning, along with several aides to this inner circle. Mrs. Whitman had taken her seat in the middle of the conference table, closest to her desk, and the only question the Governor asked at Mr. Clymer's news was, ""Well, what would it take?"" +Last Monday, Governor Whitman answered that question to the state: cutting the state income tax 15 percent would take severe cuts in several departments, the loss of 3,400 state jobs, a virtual freeze on municipal and school aid for all but the poorest school systems. It would mean a flurry of small taxes and fees, on computer software, on grocery store coupons. It would take a few strange twists: a visit to a state motor vehicle agency in person, instead of sending that renewal in by mail, would cost $5 extra under Mrs. Whitman's budget. +But delivering on her tax-cutting promise early, the officials at that meeting knew, would also be a sensation in the state and cement Mrs. Whitman's reputation as a comer in a Republican Party that is leading an anti-tax revolution and looking to the states to prove that Washington no longer has the answers. +In October, the Governor had seemed to be moving the other way. She conceded in a radio interview that the cuts might take four years to complete instead of three, setting off a flurry of I-told-you-so's among state Democrats and from Gov. Mario M. Cuomo of New York, who was fighting for a fourth term and used the admission against his rival, George E. Pataki. +Governor Whitman now maintains that she intended only to say that she would put prudence over politics in setting the tax-cut schedule, yet the dynamics of budget-writing may also have played a role in the October warning. +That is the jittery month when commissioners and bureaucrats begin to focus on their coming year's spending plans, and the Governor and her staff began bearing the brunt of intense lobbying from people interested in protecting their share of the pie. With so many dire warnings being made against this cut or in favor of that financing increase, and so little firm information about the prospects for tax revenues, the Governor's staff began making worried noises about the three-year timetable. +All that changed on Jan. 4, however, before the regular budget briefing. Ms. Kenny recalled Mr. Clymer's beckoning excitedly from a door in the Governor's outer office. +""Brian is very even, very steady,"" Ms. Kenny recalled, ""but before the meeting that day he was gesturing at me, like he's really excited, to come over. He said, 'Jane, I want to show you something. If we do this and this and that, I think we can do the whole fifteen.' "" +Mr. Clymer is a certified public accountant by training, but his background was in public transportation management, a tax-spending way of life that is far from the tax-saving, program-cutting purview of a state treasurer. He had spent the four years ending in 1992 running the Urban Mass Transit Administration in the Bush Administration, doling out Federal subsidies to city transit agencies. +Even now, two years later, Mr. Clymer's ground-floor office fronting West State Street in Trenton is festooned with models of commuter rail cars and with the kind of commemorative plaques that ranking public officials collect, like the testimonial from the city of Los Angeles to Brian W. Clymer for his help in restoring the Los Angeles Red Car Line, signed by Mayor Tom Bradley. +But it did not take a fiscal genius to see the importance of what Mr. Clymer had in his hand that day. Sales tax receipts, which grew by only $3 million from 1993 to 1994, were running $300 million above the 1994 figure, and income-tax collections were reflecting similar increases. The opening for a tax cut, a big tax cut, was growing wider. +Mr. Clymer had started his budget-making months earlier, in the heat of July and days after the current fiscal year's budget took effect. He began with three ground rules laid down by Mrs. Whitman: +""Any increase in spending had to be kept at or under the rate of inflation,"" the Treasurer recalled. ""That was No. 1. No. 2, there had to be some extra money in it for Abbott versus Burke,"" the shorthand name for a State Supreme Court order to increase state aid to New Jersey's 30 poorest school districts. +""And three,"" Mr. Clymer said, ""there had to be a tax cut in there."" +In fact, early on, Mr. Clymer had picked an arbitrary figure out of the air, $300 million, 2 percent of the total 1995 state budget, as the goal for the cut, but first the state's 17 departments, the state colleges and universities, the state-owned New Jersey Transit system and dozens of other constituent groups were assigned the task of finding places to cut their budgets. +Those agencies use about a third of the state budget, with the other two-thirds devoted to school and municipal aid and to social services. A proposal was made -- no one will admit to it now, ""but it was always out there,"" said Mr. Vernerio, the chief counsel -- to make an arbitrary across-the-board cut of state agencies, say, 10 percent, which would produce about $400 million in savings. The idea had appeal because it was easy, Mr. Verniero said, and it would be easier to defend than a line-by-line review of the 550-page spending plan. The Governor said no. +At another time, it looked as if extra savings would be gained by raising the number of state job cuts above 5,000. That figure, too, was trimmed, to the final 3,400 figure. +Meanwhile, rumors about state money grabs began to circulate, like the story that the Treasurer had his eye on a dormant $130 million fund held by the Hackensack Meadowlands Development Commission to maintain its huge, now-closed landfills in the future. The Meadowlands agency quickly issued defensive press releases against the potential grab, and nothing came of it. But Mr. Clymer is not saying never. +""Do you keep public money sitting in an account when there's not an immediate need for it?"" he asked, the Treasurer offended by idle cash. ""Well, there are a lot of symbolic reasons and aggravation reasons"" why he decided it was too much trouble to fight for the money now, ""and you end up selling a marina or something for $7 million because it becomes unavoidable."" +Conflict also arose within the administration as the budget cutters from the Office of Management and Budget took after numerous small programs, like the $430,000 for the State Commission on Science and Technology, and Ms. Kenny, as keeper of the Governor's agenda, fought to put them back in. +""It's understandable,"" Ms. Kenny said. ""They see a lot of money there. But the Governor is also committed to developing these economic incubator programs."" +By mid-November, the once-a-month budget meetings in the Governor's office had increased to two a week, with the Governor combing the print and instructing her staff to separate programs into three categories: a ""cut"" list of programs that could be reduced, a ""look"" list of programs that needed more study, and a a ""booked"" or untouchable list, like the $10 million she wanted for a new juvenile justice program." +False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Jersey System Of School Aid Is Ruled Fair +LEAD: The State Education Commissioner today rebuffed a challenge to New Jersey's system of financing public schools, the latest move in a 16-year battle over whether the state discriminates against its poorest school districts. +The State Education Commissioner today rebuffed a challenge to New Jersey's system of financing public schools, the latest move in a 16-year battle over whether the state discriminates against its poorest school districts. +In a written decision released today, Commissioner Saul Cooperman reversed the ruling of an administrative-law judge who had declared last summer that New Jersey's system violated the state Constitution because it did not eliminate financing disparities between affluent suburban school districts and those in poor cities. +While acknowledging these disparities, the Commissioner wrote that the plantiffs in the case, representaives of urban school districts, had not demonstrated 'that children educated in property-poor districts are in any way disadvantaged.' Critical Impact on Education +The ruling, which enraged officials who represent poor areas, is expected to be reviewed by the State Board of Education and ultimately by the New Jersey Supreme Court. Experts believe that the outcome will have a critical impact on public education and taxation in New Jersey. +The dispute over how to pay for public schools in New Jersey is just one symptom of what some urban leaders say is the state's most pressing problem: an increasingly troubled tax system. The leaders say their cities must shoulder too much of the cost of the state's social ills. +In an attempt to ease the pain of property-tax payers, Gov. Thomas H. Kean Wednesday joined with leaders of the Democratic-controlled state Senate to propose a plan that would provide $370 million of additional aid to school districts, counties and municipalities. But the Assembly's Republican leadership rejected the package. +In his decision today Dr. Cooperman said local school boards, not the state's method of supplying aid, were responsible for the underfinancing and poor performance of some urban schools. He said the poor districts were guilty of 'a clear moral failure' for not raising and spending more of their own money on schools. +But a lawyer representing the plaintiffs, Marilyn J. Morheuser, the executive director of the nonprofit Educational Law Center in Newark, said the Commissioner's ruling was self-serving, and she expected it to be overturned. +Creating a fair system for state school aid has been a matter of debate throughout the region. +In New York, the Legislature goes though an annual struggle to distribute funds to each of the 721 school districts, using a complex formula intended to give more aid to poorer districts. In Connecticut the General Assembly last year created a new formula for distributing aid to its 169 towns. The amount of aid to each town is based on property-tax rates, the income of residents and students' test scores. 'Thorough and Efficient' +Here in New Jersey, the school-financing issue emerged in 1973 when the State Supreme Court struck down the state's old system of supporting schools, which relied chiefly on local property taxes. +The court said the financing method provided students in tax-poor urban districts with an education inferior to those in wealthy suburbs in violation of the State Constitution's guarantee of a 'thorough and efficient' school system for all students. +The ruling led the Legislature to enact a state income tax and a school-financing law that increased state aid to local districts. +In 1981, however, a suit was filed on behalf of 20 students in four cities. The suit argued that state school spending still discriminated against students in poor districts. In 1985 an administrative-law judge, Steven L. Lefelt, heard testimoney from 99 witnesses in 95 days. +The State Public Advocate, Alfred A. Slocum, told Judge Lefelt that the Princeton school district spent $7,015 on each pupil in the 1987-88 school year, compared with $4,500 spent per pupil in Camden. He said this disparity was mirrored by the passing rate of students in the two systems on proficiency tests - 93 percent in Princeton and 23 percent in Camden. Problems Not Solved +Last summer Judge Lefelt ruled that the 1975 school-financing law did not solve the the problems that it was designed to address. +'I believe the case comes down to whether this state desires to enhance the educational opportunity of students living in poor urban areas,' he wrote. +He said poor areas 'must use a larger portion of their small tax bases to raise revenues for noneducation services' than suburban and rural areas. +'This causes fiscal pressures and political conflict which inhibit the abiltiy of poor urban school districts to address fully the education needs of their students,' he said. +In addition, the judge noted, the formula in the 1975 law was not implemented at the level anticipated by the Supreme Court. Blame for Local Officials +Under administrative procedure, the judge's decision was passed to the Education Commissioner, who was allowed to accept, reject or modify it. An appeal could then be taken to the State Board of Education, and, after that, to the courts. +In today's ruling Dr. Cooperman said local education officials should shoulder some of the blame for underfunded schools. Districts that claimed they could not increase more taxes and expenditures, he said, were suffering from a 'mindset' and 'a percieved inability to raise sufficient funds.' +The decision drew some angry responses from legislators reprsenting poorer districts. +Senator Gerald S. Stockman, a Democrat from Trenton, described the ruling as 'an outrageous insult to every mayor and councilman in these same districts. There is nothing 'perceived' about a present $20 million shortfall in funds for Trenton's Mayor.'" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Stunned Reactions Where Lightning Hit Twice +People here were shaking their heads today and wondering if their community was cursed. +For the second time in less than two months, a law enforcement professional had slaughtered his neighbors and shattered the tranquillity of streets where people brag about unlocked doors and worry-free living. +'I'm starting to think there's something wrong with this place,' said Edward Garcia, 29, a pizzeria employee who lives midway between the homes of Edward L. Lutes Jr., the Seaside Heights police officer who the authorities say fatally shot five neighbors on Tuesday night, and John W. Mabie, the retired Newark officer whose Feb. 21 rampage left four dead. 'We used to have it so easy here. Maybe life is becoming too stressful.' +Most residents seemed to be especially stressed in the early part of the day today, before investigators found Officer Lutes, dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound, in his car in the driveway of a home some 20 miles away. +'Thank God it's over,' said Maggie Reilly, 49, who lives a few doors away from the officer's home on Second Avenue. 'It's a sin he took those other people, but at least now we'll be able to sleep.' +Like most people who live in the converted bungalows and tiny Cape Cod houses here, Ms. Reilly and her two children spent last night locked inside their home, confused and afraid, jumping every time a car passed. Police helicopters hovered all night, adding to the terror and uncertainty. +'It was surreal,' Ms. Reilly said, taking the sun this afternoon on the front steps of her home, her daughter and son by her side. A number of parents kept their children at home today, saying they feared that the killer might strike at a school, the boardwalk at Seaside Heights or the Ocean County Mall. +Others, noting that the killer had struck private homes, decided that their children would be safer in a public place. Shaniiyka Anderson, 14, went to school, but insisted that her mother drive her. 'I was too scared to wait for the bus,' she said. 'But I was also afraid to stay home because I heard he killed people in a blue house, and our house is blue.' +As word of Officer Lutes's death spread this afternoon, nearby residents strolled up to the crime scene, which was marked by yellow tape that enveloped a row of homes. +Dominic Fernicola, 10, fresh from a marathon session watching the news, said he was intrigued, even excited by the buzz of police and reporters so close to his living room. 'This usually happens on TV,' he said, standing beside a line of humming television vehicles. 'It's weird to see it here.' +With 90,000 people spread out over 41 square miles, Dover Township -- which includes Toms River -- is a booming place fed by the Garden State Parkway and filled with retirees and working-class refugees from the urbanized north of the state. +Of the 13,300 newcomers who arrived between 1990 and 2000, many are like Gena Rinaldi, who moved here from Belleville three years ago, lured by affordable homes, solid schools and quiet neighborhoods. +'The only bad thing that happens here is the traffic in the summer,' said Ms. Rinaldi, 31, a customer service representative. 'Otherwise it's real boring. Almost too boring.' +In recent years, the township has earned headlines for reasons good and bad. In 1998, Toms River's Little League team won the national championship. But the township has earned notoriety for a cluster of adolescent cancer cases that state officials have said is abnormally high. Between 1979 and 1995, 90 children were found to have cancer, and last year their families shared in a $13 million settlement from two chemical firms and a local water company. +Although many residents seemed to be numbed by Tuesday's killing spree, more than a few said they worried that all the cumulative bloodshed and health concerns were giving Toms River a less-than-rosy reputation. +'These things aren't supposed to happen here,' said Pat Maglihan, 46, after giving an interview to a local television station.

Leonard, a lawyer for Mr. Oleson. +The Atlantic County prosecutor, Jeffrey S. Blitz, has been careful not to call Mr. Oleson a suspect. But forensic scientists for the prosecutor have sought a DNA sample as well as head and pubic hair. Mr. Leonard said it could take two to four months to get results. +The chief Atlantic County assistant prosecutor, Jill Horenberger, said in a motion filed in April that Mr. Oleson's DNA would be compared with biological evidence from the scene and the women's clothes and bodies. +Mr. Oleson's court appearance was the latest development since the barefoot bodies of four women were discovered in a trash-strewn ditch behind a seedy motel in Egg Harbor Township in November. +The women were identified as Kim Raffo, 35, Tracy Ann Roberts, 23, Barbara V. Breidor, 42, and Molly Jean Dilts, 20. +Hugh Auslander, the former husband of Ms. Raffo, who was in the courtroom on Friday, looked at Mr. Oleson and said he 'would like to be quick to judge, but that's too easy.' +After the hearing, a prostitute from Atlantic City said she recognized Mr. Oleson from a tryst in November in which he confessed to being a murderer. +The woman, Denise Hill, 44, said that she met Mr. Oleson around the time the victim's bodies were discovered and that he told her he had 'killed some people.' +But Mr. Leonard said that Mr. Oleson had never kept company with prostitutes and called Ms. Hill, who has admitted to smoking crack and appeared in a 2004 HBO documentary about Atlantic City prostitutes, 'the definition of reasonable doubt.' +Although Mr. Oleson has not been charged with the slayings, the police have questioned him at length about them. He lived for most of November at the Golden Key Motel in the weeks that the four bodies were dumped yards from his room. +The police questioned Mr. Oleson about the murders in April, and four days later they charged him with invasion of privacy in connection with the taking of nude videos of his female companion's daughter in their Alloway Township home. +At that time, Judge William Forester set his bail at $100,000 cash without the option of paying 10 percent to be released. +In a November interview, Ms. Hill said she called the police after spending a night with a man whose name she did not know in an Atlantic City motel in the neighborhood frequented by the women. +She said that when she saw Mr. Oleson's photograph in a newspaper several months later, she recognized him. And on Friday she found a ride from Atlantic City to see him in person. +'I watched his nose twitch, his high cheekbones, his eyes, I remember those thin lips,' she said. 'He's the one I was with. He said he killed some people.' +Clean-shaven and walking with a limp, Mr. Oleson smiled slightly after his lawyer told Judge Albert Garofolo of Superior Court that he would submit the DNA samples. As he was led from the courtroom, he looked back over his right shoulder in the direction of Mr. Auslander and Ms. Hill." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Jersey Races For Governor Nearing End +LEAD: The candidates for governor scurried about New Jersey yesterday, shaking hands wherever they could find them, with each candidate hoping to combine enough longtime supporters with new-found followers to win the primary election tomorrow. +The candidates for governor scurried about New Jersey yesterday, shaking hands wherever they could find them, with each candidate hoping to combine enough longtime supporters with new-found followers to win the primary election tomorrow. +At stake is an office with more power to affect state policies than any other governorship in the nation, and the opportunity to succeed Gov. Thomas H. Kean, a leader who has overshadowed all aspects of state politics since 1982 but who is prohibited by the state constitution from seeking a third term. +Among the Republicans, polls indicate an extremely tight race, with at least four of the eight candidates within striking distance of the nomination: Representative Jim Courter of Warren County, Assembly Speaker Chuck Hardwick of Union County, former Attorney General W. Cary Edwards of Bergen County and State Senator William L. Gormley of Atlantic County. +Each candidate is trying to combine a base of supporters from his home county with legions of new followers who, the candidates hope, were attracted in recent weeks by millions of dollars in advertising. +Among the Democrats, Representative James F. Florio of Camden County is approaching the primary in a commanding position, benefiting from a well-financed campaign, the support of all 21 Democratic county leaders and widespread voter recognition. His opponents, Assemblyman Alan Karcher of Middlesex County and Mayor Barbara Boggs Sigmund of Princeton, spent far less money and are considered long shots. 'This Is The Real One' +Mr. Florio won the Democratic nomination but lost the general election eight years ago, when Mr. Kean beat him by 1,797 votes. +'Last time was practice; this is the real one,' Mr. Florio said yesterday after wading through crowds of Polish-Americans and receiving a Solidarity button at a Polish Heritage festival in Holmdel. 'I think it's going very well, but I don't take anything for granted,' he said. +The candidates are seeking the governorship at a time when New Jersey is facing up to the consequences of more than six years of dramatic and often uncontrolled growth. +Although unemployment in the state is 3 percent, surveys indicate that New Jerseyans are troubled over swelling traffic jams, toxic pollution and overdevelopment in the nation's most densely populated state. Both conservatives and liberals say that government must take a strong stand to protect the state's shoreline and unscathed stretches of rural landscape. +As recently as January, political leaders said the election might turn on such 'quality of life' issues. +But after campaigning in 21 counties and spending almost $10 million on advertising, the candidates have come to focus on issues that cost the voters money, particularly automobile insurance, garbage, taxes and the growing budget woes. +The state's handling of these issues will be determined in large part by the next governor. New Jersey, unlike any other state, elects only one statewide official, and leaves it to the governor to appoint all other officeholders in the executive branch. Support From Home Bases +In the Republican race, each of the four leading candidates, plus State Senator Gerald Cardinale of Bergen County, hopes to combine support in their regions with enough voters from other parts of the state to win the plurality of 25 percent believed necessary for victory. +Representative Courter of Warren County may enjoy a slight advantage because the borders of his Congressional district shifted twice in the last 10 years, making him well known across a wide swath of northern New Jersey. +The area he has represented includes about 80,000 of the 400,000 Republicans expected to vote in the primary. Mr. Courter is hoping that his reputation as a fervently conservative Congressman, along with television and direct mail, will draw enough votes in other counties to win the nomination. +'He is combining a solid core of voters who have supported him in the past with a fairly large statewide recognition,' said Stephen A. Salmore, a professor of political science at Rutgers University, who is active in the Republican Party. 'It is not a sure thing by any means. But that should make him very competitive.' Stressing Family Values +Competing with Mr. Courter for the loyalty of conservative Republicans is Mr. Hardwick, who can count on a small base in Union County and, he hopes, the efforts of officeholders and party officials whom he has won as allies in his years as Assembly speaker. Mr. Hardwick has also gained the support of a number of organizations active on single issues, like anti-gun control and anti-abortion groups, and has tried to capitalize on anti-New York sentiments by filing an unsuccessful suit to end a New York State tax on commuters. +'As I go into the last two days of the campaign, I continue to stress my family values as a conservative Republican,' Mr. Hardwick said at the Polish Festival yesterday. 'When I am governor, we are not going to let New Jersey get pushed around anymore.' +Mr. Gormley is trying to put together a different winning combination, starting with his home base of Atlantic County, where there are 30,000 registered Republicans, and other areas of southern New Jersey, where he is well known. +Mr. Gormley has been forthright in his support of what are, for Republicans, relatively liberal stands. He hopes to appeal to moderate Republicans, who, though not a majority, may be numerous enough to help a candidate win a plurality in a crowded field. Appeal to Moderate Republicans +But Mr. Gormley needs to make at least a respectable showing in the northern half of the state, and he spent yesterday campaigning in the north, with stops in Hudson, Passaic and Hunterdon Counties. +Mr. Edwards, who resigned as Attorney General earlier this year, hopes to combine his base in Bergen County, which has the most Republicans, with the votes of moderate Republicans around the state. Mr. Edwards spent the day securing votes in his base, making 14 separate appearances in Bergen County. +Although Bergen has 100,000 registered Republican voters, an important question for the Edwards campaign is how many Bergen residents will vote for Mr. Cardinale, who is also from Bergen. +Mr. Cardinale has presented himself as the most conservative candidate. He hopes that while other candidates divide the various elements in the party, he will win by convincing conservatives that he best articulates their views. +The underdogs in the Democratic race, Mr. Karcher and Mrs. Sigmund, each began campaigning yesterday at two Baptist churches and moved on to campaign at the Heritage Festival, an annual outdoor event in Trenton. Both promised that tomorrow, the voters would deliver the political pundits and pollsters a surprise." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Criticism of Postal and Health Officials Grows Louder +The news that a seriously ill New Jersey postal worker is believed to have contracted pulmonary anthrax has intensified complaints that the United States Postal Service and state public health officials did not act quickly or aggressively enough to contain the problem. +For almost a week after postal officials learned that an anthrax-tainted letter had moved through the Trenton regional mail processing center here, health officials and postal supervisors insisted that employees were not at risk because it was nearly impossible for the spores of the potentially deadly bacteria to leak out of a sealed envelope. +But now that three New Jersey postal workers have tested positive for skin anthrax and another is almost certainly suffering from the more serious form of the disease, pulmonary anthrax, all postal workers at the center have been ordered to undergo testing and are being given free antibiotics. +Public health officials have also issued a statewide alert, warning doctors and druggists to be on the watch for any flu symptoms that might mask a case of anthrax and to report them to the state immediately. +But as the authorities have stepped up their response, postal workers and their representatives have become increasingly alarmed and angry, saying that their lives have been endangered by inappropriate assurances from health officials who underestimated the possibility that anthrax might contaminate work areas in the building. +Steve Bahrle, the local branch president of the National Postal Mail Handlers Union, has criticized the postal service in recent days for having workers continue working in the facility before results of the full range of environmental tests had been completed. The state's Department of Health acknowledged today that 19 of 59 samples taken from different sites in the building showed signs of anthrax. +After learning today that a worker at the plant was suspected of contracting inhalation anthrax, Mr. Bahrle said he was shocked that spores had apparently became airborne, raising even greater health risks. At the Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital at Hamilton, where hundreds of postal workers waited in line today to receive anthrax tests and antibiotics, others were upset that the Postal Service had not taken precautions sooner. +'I'm just coming here now?' said John Clark, a letter carrier from Hamilton. 'It doesn't seem right. As soon as they found out there was any case, they should have just locked the door, right then and there.' +But health officials said they have been dispensing medical advice as quickly as possible based on the best information available. The problem has been, they said, that this type of anthrax outbreak is unprecedented, meaning that the medical knowledge about it is evolving on a daily basis. +'I'm not sure it's the best time to be doing Monday morning quarterbacking because the game is still going on,' said Eddy A. Bresnitz, New Jersey's state epidemiologist. +The rift here between workers and the postal and health officials mirrors the disgruntlement reverberating in Washington, where postal workers have been outraged that they were not tested or treated more quickly. Two workers have died of pulmonary anthrax and two others have been hospitalized. +State officials have released only scant details about the worker in New Jersey believed to have pulmonary anthrax, describing her as a mail handler in her 40's who sorted mail near the machine that postmarked the contaminated letter to Tom Brokaw on Sept. 18 and the letter to Senator Tom Daschle on Oct. 8. Because she began to experience flulike symptoms on Oct. 14, and inhalation anthrax has an incubation period of about a week, health officials theorize that she was infected by the letter to Mr. Daschle, according to Dr. Bresnitz. +Faced with evidence that the bacteria had contaminated a far wider area than public health officials had anticipated, New Jersey's health commissioner used his strongest words yet to urge postal employees to seek preventative treatment immediately. 'Given this suspected case of inhalation anthrax, those workers who have not seen a physician or a nurse so far absolutely need to see a physician or a nurse to receive this preventative prescription,' said George T. DiFerdinando, commissioner of health and senior services. 'For those who have received this prescription who have not begun to take it, they definitely need to begin taking this medication.' +The blunt tone of Dr. DiFerdinando's comments were a marked departure from the response of health officials in the first days of the crisis. +New Jersey officials first learned on Oct. 12 that a tainted letter -- the one sent to Tom Brokaw at NBC -- had moved through the Hamilton facility. On Oct. 14, the people who worked at the processing center were told that there were no plans to test employees. Officials later learned that another anthrax-laden letter, one sent to The New York Post, was postmarked in Hamilton Township on Oct. 8. +The F.B.I. announced that the Brokaw letter had been tested for anthrax on the outside of the envelope and the tests were negative. Postal officials repeatedly assured workers that environmental tests at the plant showed no signs of anthrax contamination and their risk of exposure from handling the letter was infinitesimal and 'practically nonexistent.' They said this despite the fact that at least two workers here had complained of feeling ill with symptoms consistent with anthrax and were being tested. +Everything here changed radically on Oct. 18. It was learned then that one carrier assigned to a route in West Trenton had contracted cutaneous anthrax, and a day later another worker from Hamilton Township was found to be similarly infected. With the word of the test results, officials closed the facility, and in the coming days encouraged workers and customers who might have used it to be tested if they felt worried. +As postal employees arrived for work outside the processing center in Hamilton today, some said that there has been so much conflicting information released by government officials in recent days that it was difficult to feel reassured. 'There's no panic,' said Bob Mecanko, 54, who has worked for the postal service for 30 years.

Last year, children who were returned home had spent, on average, 22.8 months in the foster care system, the study found. +Children who were adopted this year had spent an average of 23.5 months in foster care, the same amount of time as children adopted last year, the study found. +The state increased the number of foster families in the system to 2,686 this year from 2,593 last year, the study said. This year, nearly 90 percent of the foster families in the program last year continued their participation, the study found. +Charles Venti, director of the Division of Youth and Family Services, attributed the increase in foster homes and the high percentage of families that stayed in the program to a series of efforts this year, including a $450,000 advertising campaign to attract new foster families, a $100-a-month increase in board payments to foster families and new counseling programs for foster children. +METRO NEWS BRIEFS: NEW JERSEY" +False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,"Our Towns ; After Slaying, Finding Tears And Blame +THE bouquets were shin high under the pin oak across the road from the suspect's house. Families kept coming and going, bringing more lilies or roses or teddy bears. Tracy Devine carried a spray of mums, at a loss as to where to put it. Then she saw, tacked to the trunk, a page of verse titled 'Eddie Werner: A Life.' +Life is so tender, Life is so sweet +Life is to precious for us to defeat +went the first lines of the verse, which had a shiny green bow taped to the top of the page, in honor of Eddie's favorite color. Ms. Devine didn't know Eddie Werner. She did not know Samuel Manzie, the 15-year-old accused of sexually assaulting and strangling Eddie before tossing the 11-year-old's body into the woods. But those lines in that verse summed up everything she had been feeling. +She put her bouquet under the verse and between two little yellow stuffed bears, blew her nose hard and wiped her eyes. A blond woman standing by a bunch of green balloons saw her and started tearing up, too. So did the woman's daughter, who looked to be about Eddie's age. The rest of the crowd of about 20 people stood silent, heads bowed. It was like church, the fathers and mothers and their children standing solemnly around the pin oak, which the suspect is said to have passed on his way to dumping Eddie in the woods. +EVERYONE looked exhausted, it being the end of the worst week in Jackson Township in who can remember how long. It started with the body of poor Eddie Werner, who was snatched while selling candy and wrapping paper door to door for the Christa McAuliffe Middle School P.T.A. It finished with his funeral. [Page 41.] In between came the arrest of a quiet, nerdy teen-ager from a good family in a good neighborhood. +Which just goes to show, said Jeannette Schermer, who came to the pin oak with her parents to pay respects to Eddie, 'you just don't know who your neighbors are.' She eyed the empty house where the suspect's family has lived for several years. The house has white siding, a basketball court in the driveway and a freshly mowed lawn. 'You just don't know,' Ms. Schermer said again. +Her mother, Jeannette Scanlon, looked at the house, too. 'They'll have to put it up for sale now,' she said. 'Absolutely,' Ms. Schermer said. +THE women were gathering in a circle that included Ms. Devine, Fred Foulkrod, Debbie Mitrosky and a few others, all Jackson Township residents who moved to the quieter part of New Jersey from places they considered more likely for something sordid to happen. +Every day last week, they were rocked by revelations about Eddie's suspected killer: how the authorities said he had started having sex at age 14 with a 43-year-old man, Stephen P. Simmons of Long Island, whom he had met in an Internet chat room; how he was getting violent with his parents; how his parents had tried to commit him to an institution days before Eddie was killed, only to be turned down by a Family Court judge. +But everyone at the pin oak agreed that no matter what troubled the suspect, it was no excuse. Someone had to take responsibility for killing Eddie as well as all the peace of Jackson Township. +'What gets me,' said Ms. Devine, still sniffling, her eyes red with tears, 'is that little Eddie Werner was taken way before his time. Now we'll have to pay for his killer for the next 50 years.' +'The press has tried to make like he's a victim, too,' Ms. Schermer said. 'Oh, please,' Mr. Foulkrod said. +'He should be dragged into the woods, just like he dragged poor little Eddie,' Mrs. Scanlon said. Two women standing nearby nodded in agreement. 'He should be raped in prison,' Ms. Devine said. More nods. +'I blame the judge who wouldn't let the parents commit the boy,' Ms. Scanlon said. +'But why did his parents leave him alone?' Ms. Mitrosky asked. 'Now I'm afraid for my five children.' +'Oh, you can't let them out,' Ms. Scanlon said.

Mr. Tabakin said that hearings on departmental charges against 13 officers in the 29-member department would begin on Nov. 6. +The Bergen County Prosecutor, William H. Schmidt, said no criminal activity was involved. But Mr. Schmidt said rules prohibit the personal use of the so-called mobile data terminals, which allow the police to check drivers' license and registration information and to transmit law enforcement-related messages. +Joseph Licata, a lawyer representing the 13 officers, said it was difficult to comment because he had not yet received transcripts of the messages and the specific accusations associated with them.

Lowenstein, said he learned on Friday that Washington corrections officials would no longer consider allowing Mr. Trantino to be placed in a halfway house there. +Mr. Trantino, 63, has been in a halfway house in Camden, N.J., since January, after serving 37 years in prison for killing two Lodi, N.J., police officers. But after he was sent there, city leaders, state officials and Mr. Trantino himself asked that he be transferred out of state. +'It's back to square one,' Mr. Lowenstein said. +Mr. Trantino had been sentenced to death, but his sentence was changed to a life term after the death penalty in New Jersey was ruled unconstitutional in 1972. +The New Jersey State Parole Board had rejected at least nine parole applications from Mr. Trantino since he became eligible in 1979. But in January, the State Supreme Court found the board's reasons insufficient, and it ordered that Mr. Trantino be placed on parole after a 12-month stay in a halfway house. +Mr. Lowenstein said corrections officials in New Jersey and Washington had agreed that Mr. Trantino would be sent to a halfway house in Washington. But officials there rejected the the move after it gained attention in Washington, Mr. Lowenstein said. +But Dick Van Wagenen, an adviser to Gov. Gary Locke of Washington, said yesterday that no such deal had ever been struck. Mr. Van Wagenen said corrections officials in Washington were willing to confine Mr. Trantino until law enforcement officials there were satisfied that he posed no threat to public safety.

Kathleen Hagen was not just an accomplished Harvard-educated doctor but a devoted daughter who left her home in the Virgin Islands and returned to care for her ailing parents in their modest home in Chatham Township, N.J. +Even when Dr. Hagen, 54, was living on the island of St. Thomas, the couple's neighbors said, she visited her parents frequently, working in the garden with her father and, when Tropical Storm Floyd hit, helping pump water out of the sloping driveway next to her parents' home, a three-bedroom 1950's ranch home surrounded by more stately houses. +Now, neighbors, the police and prosecutors are struggling to piece together the chain of events that led to Dr. Hagen's being charged this weekend with the murder of her parents, Idella F. Hagen, 92, and James Hagen, 86. +At 6:45 a.m. Saturday, Dr. Hagen telephoned the police to say that her parents were dead, said Capt. Christopher D. Linne, a spokesman for the Morris County prosecutor's office. Captain Linne said 'there were additional conversations' between Dr. Hagen and the police, but he would not say whether she had confessed. +When the police arrived at the Hagen home, at 614 Fairmont Avenue, they found Mr. and Mrs. Hagen in their nightclothes in twin beds in the master bedroom, Captain Linne said. The Morris County medical examiner determined that they had been asphyxiated, he said. +The couple had been dead for three to seven days when their bodies were discovered, officials at the prosecutor's office said. +When the police arrived, Dr. Hagen was wearing a nightgown that appeared to have been worn for several days, said the Morris County prosecutor, John B. Dangler. 'She appeared to be very distraught,' he said. +Dr. Hagen's bail has been set at $2.5 million, and she is scheduled to appear before a Morris County Superior Court judge either today or tomorrow, Mr. Dangler said. Even though Dr. Hagen has 'a sizable amount of personal wealth,' Mr. Dangler said, she has not moved to post her own bail and she remains in the Morris County jail. +Investigators have not determined a motive for the killing, the authorities said. But for Dr. Hagen, the arrest is the latest twist in an unconventional life in which she left an apparently successful career in urology to manage a small island inn. +Records indicate that Idella Kathleen Hagen graduated from Harvard Medical School in 1973. She was an intern and a surgery resident at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston until 1975, when she became the first woman to be appointed a urology resident there. By 1979, Dr. Hagen was a fellow at the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York. +According to The Daily Record of Morris County, Dr. Hagen was appointed chief of the urology division at Rutgers Medical School in 1982 and was chief urologist at Rutgers's main teaching hospital, Middlesex General in New Brunswick. The hospital is now called the Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital, and the medical school is Robert Wood Johnson Medical School. +While officials said that Dr. Hagen's medical license was valid until next year, she seemed to have dropped her medical career in the late 1980's, when she moved to the island of St. Thomas with her husband at the time, William Tyrrell of Stuart, Fla. +Mr. Tyrrell did not return several telephone calls to his home yesterday. The prosecutor's office said that Dr. Hagen had been married and divorced twice. +From about 1987 until 1992, Dr. Hagen and Mr. Tyrrell lived on St. Thomas, where they operated the West Indies Inn, said their landlord, Richard Doumeng, the general manager of the Bolongo Bay Beach Club. They left that business after a series of storms ravaged the building and hurt tourism, he said. +'They had put so much of their blood, sweat and tears into the place, and then it got severely damaged,' Mr. Doumeng said. 'They just didn't have the energy to do it again.' Mr. Doumeng said the inn was Mr. Tyrrell's dream more than his wife's. 'Their time here took a toll on them as a couple.' +Dr. Hagen had been living with her parents since last month, the authorities said. 'She was in between careers and was torn between staying with her parents and going back down to the Virgin Islands,' said Scott Tucker, 48, a neighbor. +'We had no idea what she was going through,' said Mr. Tucker's wife, Laura. 'It must have been something awful.' +Correction: August 30, 2000, Wednesday An article on Monday about charges that Dr. I.

Corzine and Douglas R. Forrester, has been particularly venomous. +Last week, Mr. Forrester quoted Mr. Corzine's ex-wife in an ad attacking the senator's integrity. Mr. Corzine responded by calling that move an act of desperation and continued his own negative advertisements against Mr. Forrester. +And the campaign, which had already been rocked by questions about a loan that Mr. Corzine had given to a former companion who is a state union leader, reached a low point when both candidates had to fend off questions about women with whom they were rumored to be romantically involved, prompting lurid news reports. +The rancor of the last week in the campaign played against the backdrop of public opinion polls that showed a race that seemed to be tightening by the day, as what had been a lead of more than 10 percentage points for Mr. Corzine for much of the campaign dwindled in some surveys to the low single digits. +The race is one of only two for governor in the nation on Tuesday, and as in the other, in Virginia, the incumbent is not running. +As Senator Corzine and Mr. Forrester crisscrossed the state on Sunday, images of the smiling candidates shaking hands at Elks lodges and ascending church pulpits contrasted with the way they have savaged each other in the past week, including an angry, face-to-face argument during a debate televised live on Saturday night. +Mr. Corzine, who made his fortune in investment banking and became co-chairman and chief executive of Goldman Sachs, and Mr. Forrester, who owns a company that manages prescription drug benefits, dipped into their personal wealth and broke spending records, buying time for commercials that often ran to the negative and the inflammatory. +But on Sunday each seemed sensitive to the idea that the bitterness of the campaign might alienate many of the state's voters. +'With about 40 hours left until people have a chance to vote, I really think it is important that we stay on the issues that will impact people's lives,' Senator Corzine said after an appearance on Sunday morning at a Baptist church in Trenton, where he acknowledged that the race had 'spun out of control.' +But along the campaign trail Sunday, each candidate was being scrutinized by voters weary of bickering by two wealthy men, and tired, too, of attack ads and published reports that named women with whom each man was rumored to be involved. +'One thing that bothered me is I'm not hearing a lot about what their plan is, just how bad the other guy is,' said Alfred Olson, 50, of Mount Laurel, after listening to Mr. Forrester at a diner in Marlton. 'To tell the truth, I actually expected more from both of them.' +Mr. Forrester, after greeting voters with his wife, Andrea, on Sunday morning, acknowledged that sentiment, which has been bolstered by poll results showing that voters were fed up with negative ads even before the events of the past week. +'I think that there is a lot of discouragement and there has been for months about a lot of the ads that have been run,' Mr. Forrester said. 'We've always tried to be straightforward. What I'm trying to say is, if people want to change things, they need to vote for me.' +The polls continue to show Mr. Corzine ahead, with a lead that ranges from 2 percentage points to about 12. The polls also show that the number of people who remain undecided is dwindling. Still, New Jersey's electorate is notoriously fickle, and it may be difficult to place much credence in poll results. Christie Whitman trailed James J. Florio in several major polls in the 1993 governor's race but defeated him by about 26,000 votes. +Mr. Forrester hoped to erode Senator Corzine's advantage further over the next two days. 'You know, all the polling that I'm aware of has been done really before there was an opportunity for everybody to see recent ads,' Mr. Forrester said. 'So I think it's unlikely that there was any reflection. Obviously, we'll see Tuesday.' +As the final hours ticked away on the campaign, both Mr. Forrester and Senator Corzine tried to stay on message about the issues -- property taxes and corruption -- of most importance to voters, and to consolidate their bases. At stop after stop, Mr. Corzine sought to remind voters in Democratic and socially liberal New Jersey of his record in the Senate. Mr. Forrester, meanwhile, assailed that record. +Mr. Corzine's nine-event schedule on Sunday included the visit to a predominantly black church in Trenton before he sprinted across the state for a string of appearances up and down New Jersey's eastern edge. Mr. Forrester had a comparatively light schedule of five appearances, mostly the so-called meet-and-greets at diners and shopping malls. +For much of the day, Mr. Corzine was joined by Senator Barack Obama, a rising star in the Democratic Party who represents Mr. Corzine's native state, Illinois, and who received help last fall from Mr. Corzine, as chairman of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, in winning election. +Speaking at Shiloh Baptist Church with the informal diction and rolling cadences of a preacher, Senator Obama reminded parishioners of Mr. Corzine's record in the Senate, including his opposition to the war in Iraq and his efforts to fight genocide in the Sudan. +'I'm here to help my homeboy,' Senator Obama said in a nod to the two men's shared Illinois roots. +Mr. Obama called Mr. Corzine 'a kindred spirit' and told parishioners that they should not be discouraged from casting ballots by the 'slash-and-burn kind of politics' that has typified the race in the past week. +'Our job as candidates is to talk about what we're going to do for the people who we hope to represent,' Mr. Obama said, 'to talk about property taxes and to talk about health care issues and to talk about education. Those are the things Jon Corzine's talking about.' +Mr. Corzine continued to express regret about an answer in Saturday's debate, when he was caught flatfooted by a question about lowering the drinking age; Mr. Corzine did not know that the legal age was 21. +He also said that the testy tenor of the debate was a result of the format, in which, at one point, the moderator, Gabe Pressman of WNBC, asked each candidate to critique the other's TV ads. Combined, the candidates have spent $72 million on their campaigns so far -- a record for a governor's race in the state. +For his part, Mr. Forrester, the Republican, seemed satisfied by his showing in the debate. 'I felt that when I came away from the debate that everything we have been trying to communicate was laid out there in a very reasonable way,' he said. 'And I would guess that the audience is going to look at that and say, 'Yep, we want a change.' ' +Still, after the vitriol of the last week, it seems that the change some voters most want to see is the conclusion of the race. 'It's like any other campaign,' said Tom Stavros, who heard Mr. Forrester in Marlton. 'When it gets down to the last couple of weeks, everyone starts throwing mud. Everyone's seen this before. I guess that's why they're tired of it.'" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Bishop Installed Amid Dust-Up Over Stand on Governor's Divorce +The new bishop of Camden said on Thursday that he would not let Gov. James E. McGreevey receive communion at his installation ceremony on Friday, because the governor had remarried after his divorce without obtaining an annulment. +The governor was wondering how the bishop knew this. +'The governor has remarried but he has never discussed whether he sought or received an annulment,' Micah Rasmussen, the governor's spokesman, said Friday. 'It is something he always considered a private matter.' +Governor McGreevey did not attend the ceremony because he was scheduled to be elsewhere in the state. +In a meeting with reporters Thursday, Bishop Joseph A. Galante was categorical in his assertion that he would offer Governor McGreevey a blessing, but not the host, if the governor had attended the installation at St. Agnes church in Blackwood Friday. 'If he comes to communion, I'd give him a blessing,' the bishop said at a news conference in Camden, according to local press accounts confirmed by the diocese. 'In his case, he can't go to communion.' +On Friday, at the installation ceremony, Bishop Galante's spokesman, Andrew J. Walton, appeared to soften the bishop's views, saying the bishop had been speaking hypothetically. 'He did not know the status of his previous marriage,' Mr. Walton said. +Whatever the intended force of the bishop's statement, it was the second time Mr. McGreevey, a Roman Catholic who attends Mass regularly, has been attacked by a leader of his church. Last month Bishop John Smith of Trenton said the governor, a former altar boy, was 'not a devout Catholic' because he held the view, common among Democratic politicians, of being personally opposed to abortion but feeling compelled to support abortion rights in his public life. +'He cannot compromise what it means to be a Catholic,' Bishop Smith wrote in the diocesan weekly, The Monitor. 'I speak, as your bishop, for the devout Catholics of the Diocese of Trenton. Jim McGreevey does not.' +Catholic leaders have raised the same complaint against Senator John Kerry, a Catholic and the presumptive Democratic nominee, following Mr. Kerry's vote in the Senate this spring against a bill that criminalized harming a fetus during the commission of a federal crime. +In New York City today, the Archdiocese confirmed rumors that Mr. Kerry might not be invited to the Alfred E. Smith Memorial Foundation Dinner, a charity fund-raiser sponsored by the Archdiocese of New York that is a national fall ritual, especially in an election year, for Catholic politicians and the church. +'There have been discussions on who should be invited to speak at the Al Smith Foundation dinner, which is in October,' said Joseph Zwilling, the spokesman for the archdiocese. 'The discussion has centered on the question of whether John Kerry should be invited. There has been no decision reached on that.' +Governor McGreevey was married to Kari Schutz in 1991 and the couple had a daughter, Morag, a year later, Mr. Rasmussen said. It was out of concern for the 11-year-old girl's privacy that Mr. McGreevey has never discussed the end of his first marriage, Mr. Rasmussen said. +'So I don t know where anyone would be getting any information,' he said of the bishop's statements. He added that the governor would not comment on the bishop's remarks. +Mr. McGreevey is now married to Dina Matos McGreevey. They have a 3-year-old daughter. +Mr. Rasmussen said the governor never had any intention of attending the installation of the new bishop. His schedule for Friday, released after 6 p.m. Thursday, said he would be in Menlo Park and in other parts of the state during the ceremony. +However, Mr. Walton said Mr. McGreevey had been expected at the installation. A packet of information released to the news media included his name at the top of a list of 'civil officials' expected to attend. Criticism of Catholic politicians who hold views that are contrary to church teaching has been an issue in national politics since at least 1986, when Mario Cuomo, then governor of New York, made a fiery defense at the University of Notre Dame of the right of Catholic politicians, particularly the Democratic vice-presidential nominee, Geraldine Ferraro, to distinguish between their personal and political views. +This year the issue sharpened with the candidacy of Mr. Kerry, and a statement from Rome earlier this month from Cardinal Francis Arinze, who presides over the Vatican office on worship and the sacraments, that any Catholic politician who supports abortion rights was 'not fit' to receive the eucharist. +The remark prompted Cardinal Theodore McCarrick, archbishop of Washington, to say that he was not at 'the stage where I'm comfortable in denying the eucharist.' But canon lawyers said Friday that Bishop Galante would be on firm ground in denying the host to any Catholic who had remarried after a civil divorce, and had failed to obtain an annulment. +'The law is absolutely clear,' said Msgr. Brian Ferme, dean of the School of Canon Law at Catholic University in Washington, D.C. 'And it does not only apply to the governor, it applies to all Catholics. And it is very painful, no doubt about that.' +As for why the views of Catholic politicians are in the news now, Monsignor Ferme said, 'It is an election year -- it's as simple as that.' +About 1,500 people, many of them fellow members of the church, attended the installation of Bishop Galante at the large, octagonal shaped church, its stone altar festooned with red roses. Bishop Galante succeeds Bishop Nicholas Di Marzio, who was installed last October as Bishop of the Diocese of Brooklyn. +The Diocese of Camden encompasses six counties and, according to its Web site, claims 445,000 Roman Catholics. +Bishop Galante, 66, was born in Philadelphia and served most recently as the coadjutor bishop of Dallas.

Coe, said during a recess at the commission meeting Friday, 'I'm sure there will be recommended changes in both taxes.' He said the commission would not meet the January deadline for its report, but said it should be ready by March. Governor Kean said recently that he did not support any increase in the income tax but would keep an open mind on any other tax changes 'as long as they don't adversely affect the state's economy.' +The Governor's remark drew a rebuke from the Senate majority leader, John A. Lynch, Democrat of New Brunswick, who said it could have 'a chilling effect on the final weeks of deliberations' by the commission and could cause it 'to steer away from a balanced approach to tax reform.' Mr. Lynch is Mayor of New Brunswick and, like other urban mayors, he is looking for some recommendations for easing the local property tax burden. +Despite the Governor's remark, Mr. Coe and others indicated the 32-member commission would deliver its recommendations on the subject of taxes and spending and leave it up to the Governor and the Legislature to decide what changes sould be enacted. +The commission now has no firm proposals for changing the income and sales taxes, but several ideas are being explored. The commission probably will not call for an increase in the 6 percent sales tax, which raises about $2.5 billion a year, but it may ask to extend it to some items not now covered, including disposable paper products, which would raise about $30 million, or home heating oil, which would yield $60 million. The figures are according to the State Division of Taxation. +The commission is also studying whether to extend the tax to services, such as those provided by attorneys, accountants and architects, which could raise $90 million. Proposal to Raise Income Tax +The state's gross income tax of 2 percent to 3.5 percent, depending on income, yields about $2 billion annually. The commission considered a proposal Friday to increase the top rate to 5 percent on incomes of $200,000 and more and to raise some of the intermediate steps, which could raise an additional $611 million. However, the commission members emphasized that it was solely an interim proposal. The commission's executive director, Henry A. Coleman, said that among the problems 'that have percolated up' through the studies of commission task forces in the last year were recognition of a fiscal disparity among municipalities that has resulted in higher taxes and a lower quantity and quality of services in poorer urban centers; the need to realign the division of responsibilities between state and local governments to promote 'accountability, equity and efficiency;' the need to reduce the reliance on local property taxes, and the need to improve the quality of education in poorer districts, and to curb the growth in the cost of some services to prevent state expenditures from outrunning state revenues by the turn of the century. +The commission is studying proposals for the state to take over the welfare, trial court and mental hospital costs now borne at the county level, and for a cap on local property tax rates. Under this proposal, if a municipalitity's budget costs cannot be met within the cap, the state would pay the balance." +False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Man Admits Gun Trade Via a 'Firearm Freeway' +A Linden man admitted yesterday in Federal court that he was the head of an operation that bought dozens of weapons from a West Virginia gun shop and drove them north along a route nicknamed 'The Firearm Freeway' to sell illegally on the streets of New Jersey. +The suspect, Kareem Prunty, 21, was responsible for bringing more than 60 weapons into the state between 1995 and last February along Interstate 95, said Henry E.

Canon V. Gene Robinson, to be the bishop of New Hampshire in 2003. +Reaction to the list of candidates came quickly. +The American Anglican Council, an orthodox umbrella group, said, 'We are shocked that just one week after the close of General Convention and one day following release of the archbishop of Canterbury's statement on the Communion's future, the Diocese of Newark has sent a clear and defiant message nationally and internationally that there will be no turning back.' +Of the handful of dioceses electing bishops since 2003, Newark is only the second, after the Diocese of California in San Francisco, to have gay nominees, said Jan Nunley, a spokeswoman for the Episcopal Church Center, the church's administrative office. The church has 2.3 million members. +The American Anglican Council objected to the nomination of the Very Rev. Canon Michael Barlowe, a congregational development officer in the Diocese of California and one of the gay nominees for bishop of California, saying, 'Canon Barlow's manner of life is contradictory to Scripture and the mind of the Anglican Communion.' +At the General Convention in Columbus, Ohio, last week, the leaders of the Episcopal Church encouraged individual dioceses to avoid supporting the election of gay bishops, a retreat from the church's previous stance. The convention fell short of issuing an explicit apology for the ordination of Bishop Robinson and calling for a moratorium on ordaining gay bishops, two steps called for in a report prepared by a committee appointed by the archbishop that addressed the possibility of a schism. +The Diocese of Newark, which covers 113 parishes in Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Morris, Passaic, Sussex and Warren Counties, and one parish in Union County, is considered one of the nation's most liberal and has a history of including gay and lesbian parishioners and priests in church life. It became the focus of national controversy in 1989 when its bishop at the time, the Right Rev. John Shelby Spong, ordained an openly gay man as a priest. +The Rev. Sandye Wilson, chairwoman of the screening committee of the nominating committee, said the group looked for candidates with strong records of working for peace and justice, encouraging good pastoral care and helping congregations grow spiritually and financially. +'We really have a great desire in this diocese that all candidates be looked at and examined for the gifts that they bring, not lifting one out of the group based on whom he happens to love,' Ms. Wilson said, noting the church's history of inclusiveness. 'One of our core values is that there's a place at the table for everyone.' +Diocese officials said Canon Barlowe, who previously worked in parishes in Westfield and Plainfield, N.J., and the other nominees had chosen not to grant interviews. +The other nominees are the Rev. Mark Beckwith, rector of All Saints Church in Worcester, Mass., and a former associate rector of St. Peter's Episcopal Church in Morristown, N.J.; the Very Rev. Petero Sabune, the Protestant chaplain at Sing Sing state prison in New York and a former dean of the cathedral in Newark; and the Rev. William Stokes, rector of St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Delray Beach, Fla. +The Rev. Susan Russell, president of Integrity, a gay and lesbian advocacy group in the church, praised the nominations. +'For the Diocese of Newark to come out so quickly with a gay man in its list of candidates is a strong statement that this is not a church that is willing to be blackmailed into bigotry,' she said. +After the current bishop, the Right Rev. John P. Croneberger, announced in April 2005 that he would be retiring, the diocese received about 70 nominations, some from church leaders and some from the candidates themselves. +A survey of member parishes found that the diocese's 35,000 to 40,000 members were generally open to choosing a bishop 'without regard to gender, race, sexual orientation, age or physical ability.' +Groups of clerical and lay people chosen by each parish will choose the new bishop on Sept. 23. That choice will need the majority approval of two national groups, the bishops of each diocese and the standing committees, groups of clergy and lay people who run each diocese. The new bishop is expected to take office by the beginning of December. +Correction: June 30, 2006, Friday Because of an editing error, an article yesterday about the nomination of a gay priest as a candidate for Episcopal bishop of Newark misspelled his surname at one point.

Those timetables were the outgrowth of a lawsuit brought by the coalition in 1989 which resulted in a consent decree, under which the agency agreed to embark on a court-supervised housing replacement program. +The advocacy group said it now wanted the agency cited for contempt and removed from the program. In its place, the group said, the court should appoint Abt Associates, a Cambridge, Mass., housing consultant that has been monitoring the agency since it was appointed by the court two years ago. The company was appointed after the coalition petitioned the court to strip the public housing agency of its authority. +'Over the past 11 years, the Newark Housing Authority has violated a slew of construction schedules,' said David Weiner, spokesman for the coalition, which is made up of public housing tenants, unions and local community groups. 'Eleven years after the settlement agreement, only 53 percent of the housing they said they would replace has been completed. This is unacceptable, and there are thousands of people on waiting lists for low-income housing.' +The request is due to be heard Monday at a regularly scheduled conference in the case before Judge Dickinson R. Debevoise of Federal District Court in Newark. It will face the strong opposition of housing authority officials. +MaryAnn Russ, the Abt consultant who is monitoring the housing authority, and who has just submitted her own assessment of the agency's performance, said that she had been unaware of the coalition's proposal. +'At this point we are not ready to agree that this is the way to go,' Ms. Russ said in a telephone interview. 'I will be reporting to the court large improvements by Newark in the past two years, especially when you are talking about the repair and turnaround of older units.' +Robert Graham, the executive director of the Newark Housing Authority, which owns 8,000 apartments, said he believed that Judge Debevoise would reject the coalition's request largely on the basis of what he called its inaccurate figures. He said by counting low-income units near completion and those expected to begin construction soon, the agency had reached over 85 percent of the replacement goal set by the court, much more than the 53 percent cited by the coalition. +Under the consent decree, the court had directed the city to provide 1,777 replacement public housing units for ones lost in in a series of demolitions of high-rises that were built in the 50's and 60's. +In addition, said Mr. Graham, the waiting list for public housing that was 10,000 people in 1990 is now down to 4,000. That progress had been acknowledged by the court and the consultant in the past. +Still, Mr. Weiner and other coalition officials said that the agency was falling short of court-set goals and faced even more problems as it prepared to divert scarce resources to a number of other projects. +Noting that the city had aggressively torn down old high-rise housing to replace it with less dense low-rise and town-house developments in recent years, Richard Cammarieri, another coalition member, said that waiting lists had grown, as had the time families remained on the lists." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Signs of Progress Seen in Closing Trenton Budget Gap Before Sunday's Deadline +With four days remaining for New Jersey to adopt a budget, the mood in the State House has become an odd blend of fiscal crisis and summer recess. +The State Constitution requires that a balanced budget be approved by July 1, and with that deadline approaching, Republican lawmakers complained today that Gov. James E. McGreevey had still not released a detailed spending plan because his budget for the 2003 fiscal year would lead to higher property taxes. +Democrats retaliated by blaming Republicans for the fiscal trouble Mr. McGreevey inherited when he took office in January, and said they had made contingency plans for a government shutdown in case a balanced budget was not in place by midnight Sunday. +Yet despite all the talk of fiscal doom and crushing deadline pressure, officials from both parties managed to find time this week for some of the less urgent chores of elective office. The budget negotiations scheduled for Thursday are expected to end by midafternoon so state leaders can attend fund-raisers: Republicans have an event featuring Rudolph W. Giuliani, and Democrats will hold a party before a Jimmy Buffett concert in Camden. The Democratic State Committee will also hold its annual convention in Atlantic City Thursday night through Saturday morning, whether or not a budget agreement has been reached. +Leaders of the State Senate, which is split evenly between Democrats and Republicans, have scheduled sessions for Friday, Saturday and Sunday, although legislators from both parties said they hoped to avoid working into the weekend. +But even as the rhetorical battle between the parties heated up today, there were fleeting signs of progress. Senator John O. Bennett, the Republican co-president of the Senate, said the two sides had moved closer to an agreement on the most divisive aspect of the budget: the plan to raise more than $1 billion in additional revenues from corporate taxes. +'One way or another, I think we'll have a budget in place,' Mr. Bennett said. +New Jersey's fiscal problems have so thoroughly dominated state politics during the past eight months that lawmakers from both parties seemed eager to play out the endgame of the budget process. The day after he was elected last November, Mr. McGreevey began warning New Jerseyans that tough times were looming and that Republicans had left the state's finances depleted. +By March, Mr. McGreevey had unveiled his own $23.7 billion budget plan, a 9 percent increase in spending, which raised revenues by draining the surpluses in an assortment of special state trust funds, and proposing to sell bonds against the state's portion of the tobacco settlement. +But the slumping economy has made the budget process more difficult because state tax revenues continue to decline and Wall Street analysts have lowered New Jersey's bond rating three times. +While a complete appropriations bill had not been made available to Republicans by this evening, the McGreevey administration did release a summary of its updated budget proposals, which call for spending $400 million less than in the governor's original plan. +Mr. McGreevey has dropped plans to increase casino taxes by $33 million and to raise $12 million by making rural communities pay for the state troopers assigned to patrol them, said an aide to the governor who insisted on anonymity. The summary also calls for reducing spending for health and senior services by $47 million and environmental protection by $8 million. +Republicans said they suspected that Mr. McGreevey was reluctant to release the appropriations bill because its details would anger the public. Mr. Bennett said that by freezing school aid, Mr. McGreevey would force communities to raise their property taxes. +'The budget bill has been hidden because it is bad for New Jersey,' Mr. Bennett said. +The governor brushed aside those criticisms, saying that both he and the treasurer had conferred with Republicans about the budget plans, and that the delay was caused by the complexity of the state's fiscal problems. +'Ultimately, New Jersey cannot repeat the mistake that was made over the past two years,' Mr. McGreevey said. 'New Jersey must have a balanced budget based upon sound revenue projections and not fanciful expectations.' +One expense yet to be determined is the amount allocated for legislators' pet projects, which New Jersey politicians refer to as Christmas tree items and add hundreds of millions to the state budget some years. Richard J. Codey, the Democratic co-president of the Senate, said that this year's budget would be too tight to allow for any such spending. +But after 10 years in the minority, many Democratic legislators are eager to be heard now that their party has attained a split in the Senate and controls the governor's office and General Assembly. The McGreevey administration also needs at least one Republican vote to win approval of the budget in the Senate. +But Mr. Codey cautioned that Republicans were in no position to make harsh criticisms or costly demands. 'They dug New Jersey into a big hole,' he said. 'It's their job to dig out of the hole, and we'll help them.'" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Shooting of Newark Suspect, 17, Leads to Widening Police Inquiry +An investigation into the shooting of a 17-year-old suspected of driving a car stolen from a police officer's mother widened today. Officials focused on nine officers who may have been at the scene or may have known of the incident but failed to report it. +Police officials are trying to determine whether one or more officers fired at the youth and whether others tried to cover up the incident, which occurred early Tuesday but did not come to the attention of department officials until hours after the shooting. +The weapons of all nine officers were sent to the state police laboratory. Six of the officers have been placed on light duty without weapons, and the others have been rearmed and remain on regular duty. 'We Asked Them to Trust Us' +Police Director William Celester and Mayor Sharpe James met today with relatives of the shooting victim, Howard Caesar. ""We assured them we would do everything possible to find out what happened,"" Mr. Celester said. ""We asked them to trust us, and they said they would."" +The teen-ager was listed in critical condition at University Hospital, suffering from a gunshot wound to the abdomen that caused extensive injuries. A spokesman for the hospital, Rogers Ramsey, said Mr. Caesar was using a life-support system. He underwent surgery to repair a lacerated liver and other injuries, Mr. Ramsey said, but no attempt was made to remove the bullet. +Mr. Celester identified the officers who are on restricted duty as Michael Cavallero, John Costa, Kenneth Holloway, Neftalis Mendez, Jose Montalvo and Gerard Piacenza, all patrolmen. The three officers remaining on normal duty were not identified. +Mr. Celester said there was no evidence that racism was involved in the incident. Three of the transferred officers are white, two are Hispanic, and one is black, he added. Mr. Caesar is black. +The shooting occurred about 4 A.M. at 16th Avenue and South 17th Street, at West Side Park, a few blocks from the Irvington border. +People in the neighborhood, including a teen-age girl who reported having seen the shooting from her third-floor apartment, said six or seven shots were fired in Mr. Caesar's direction after the 1987 Chevrolet Camaro he was driving in circles in the intersection went out of control and struck a curb. +The shots, they said, came without warning from officers who had been hiding in West Side Park. Mr. Caesar, holding his right side, ran past his sister Reshonda, who was at the intersection, and headed to a friend's home a block away, on South 18th Street, where he collapsed, said Omar Stark, 26, who identified himself as Mr. Caesar's brother. +A young man who would not give his name said today that he was at the intersection at the time of the shooting. ""The boy had no gun or nothing,"" he recalled. ""And the police didn't say, 'Hold, police!' or anything. They just started shooting, and people began ducking."" No Reports From Scene +The police have not officially said how many shots they believe were fired, but members of the department who insisted on anonymity said investigators believed that there were three or four. +In violation of department regulations, Mr. Celester said, the officers believed to have been at the scene at the time of the shooting, or later, failed to report the shooting, their presence or whether they had fired their weapons. +No officers ever reported their presence at the scene. Residents said they had called the police to notify them about shooting. +Police spokesmen said on Tuesday that the incident began when the mother of Officer Dino D'Elia reported that her 1987 black Chevrolet Camaro had been stolen. The police have not said whether Officer D'Elia was at the scene of the shooting or if he is one of the officers under investigation. +Four officers were the targets of the initial investigation, but the number placed at the scene grew to six after internal affairs officers reviewed tapes of radio conversations. +Officer Cavallero, 28 years old, has been on the force for six and a half years, and Officer Costa, 25, has been an officer for five years. Officer Holloway, 30, has been a patrolman for one year, Officer Mendez, 31, has been in the department for five years, and Officer Montalvo, 23, has been on the force for one and a half years. Officer Piacenza, 23, has one year of service. +A bartender who lives on 19th Street said he was returning from work at about the time of the incident. He said people were milling around and talking about the shooting when he arrived. +""The police are always hiding in the park or in a parking lot down 17th Street to catch drug dealers or car thieves,"" he said. ""And they often use their weapons. This is nothing new."" 'Doughnuts' in Intersections +The intersections along 16th Avenue are marked with black rings made by cars forming ""doughnuts."" The cars are usually stolen, police officers and neighborhood residents said, and the exhibitions are almost nightly. +""Nobody wants problems,"" the bartender said, but he added that tension was high in Newark because of the beating in Los Angeles of Rodney G. King, a black motorist, and the acquittals of the white police officers who were videotaped in the incident, and because of the death of Phillip Pannell, a black teen-ager shot by Gary Spath, a white police officer in Teaneck who was found not guilty of manslaughter this year. +""There is frustration in the community because nothing happens when one of these things occur,"" the bartender said. ""People are talking."" +Mayor James, saying he is aware of what can occur, especially in hot summer months, if an incident like the shooting is not promptly and thoroughly investigated, urged all members of the Police Department who might know about the shooting to come forward. +Mr. James, who attended a meeting today to discuss the car-theft problem in the city, one of the worst in the nation, said the city was doing everything possible to solve it.

For nearly a century, historians have trolled stacks of dusty tomes in hopes of unearthing the origins of baseball. +Its primordial myth held that Abner Doubleday, a West Point cadet, invented the game in 1839 on a dirt field in Cooperstown, N.Y., where the Baseball Hall of Fame is now situated. +In recent years, historians have credited Alexander J. Cartwright, a New York bank clerk, and the Knickerbocker Base Ball Club for codifying many of the modern rules and using them for the first time in an 1846 game at the Elysian Fields in Hoboken, N.J. +Now, two newspaper references to baseball have turned up that show that an organized version of the game was being played even earlier in New York City. The articles appeared April 25, 1823; they indicate that some form of the game was even then being called 'base ball' and was played in Manhattan. +The articles, discovered by a librarian at New York University, George A. Thompson Jr., bolster a growing consensus that baseball emerged gradually, by evolution and not by invention. +The longer of the two articles appeared in The National Advocate, one of about eight daily newspapers published in New York at the time. It is signed by a person wishing to be known only as a spectator. A mere four sentences, the article begins: +'I was last Saturday much pleased in witnessing a company of active young men playing the manly and athletic game of 'base ball' at the Retreat in Broadway (Jones'). I am informed they are an organized association, and that a very interesting game will be played on Saturday next at the above place, to commence at half past 3 o'clock, P.M. Any person fond of witnessing this game may avail himself of seeing it played with consummate skill and wonderful dexterity.' +The game was played on the west side of Broadway between what is today Eighth Street and Washington Place in Greenwich Village, long before anyone dreamed of putting on a pinstripe uniform. +The booming port city of New York had more than 120,000 residents in 1823, according to the census, and its warren of cobblestone lanes had pushed as far north as present-day Canal Street. The Retreat mentioned in the article was a two-acre rural estate that in 1822 became the site of a tavern run by a man named William Jones. +John Thorn, a baseball historian, said the article supported the theory that baseball gradually evolved from prototypes. 'It really is an uninterrupted lineage,' said Mr. Thorn, who edits 'Total Baseball' (Total Sports Publishing, 2001), a 2,600-page encyclopedia of the sport. 'Amateur scholars will attempt to put stakes in a moving stream. But the water is the water.' +Newspaper articles discovered over the last decade or so bolster that theory. In 1990 a Harvard student unearthed an account, complete with a box score, of a baseball game between teams from New York and Brooklyn in 1845. +Then an article surfaced the following year that had been published in 1825 in a newspaper in Delhi, N.Y. Signed by nine men from the town of Hamden, it challenged an 'equal number of persons in any town in the County of Delaware' to 'play the game of BASS-BALL, for the sum of one dollar each per game.' (Stagecoach Series, anyone?) +In the early 19th century, Americans were just starting to adopt leisure activities, historians say, and ball games were still considered child's play. Boxing, horse racing, rowboat racing and bowling in saloons were more popular as entertainment for adults. But many sports, and the gambling that inevitably accompanied them, drew denouncements from newspapers. +Scholars say that probably explains why the author of the 1823 article in The National Advocate ended it with this line: 'It is surprising, and to be regretted that the young men of our city do not engage more in this manual sport; it is innocent amusement, and healthy exercise, attended with but little expense, and has no demoralizing tendency.' +The second article discovered by Mr. Thompson, the soft-spoken N.Y.U. librarian, was published the same day in The New-York Gazette and General Advertiser. That paper apparently received the same letter printed in The Advocate and summed it up in one paragraph, starting with 'We have received a communication in favor of the manly exercise of base ball.' +The writer of the letter seemed to assume readers knew what he was talking about, indicating the game was 'not a revolutionary new product' in 1823, Mr. Thorn, the editor of 'Total Baseball,' said. +Another baseball historian, Mark Alvarez, said, 'The exciting thing about this discovery is that it implies this game was a regular meeting, that you could go somewhere and expect people to play ball and you could watch.' Mr. Alvarez is the editor of The National Pastime, an annual journal of baseball history that recently published an article by Mr. Thompson on his finding. +Dean A. Sullivan, another baseball scholar, said the finding was fascinating and had some significance as to the overall evolution of baseball. +But Mr. Sullivan, who edited 'Early Innings' (University of Nebraska Press, 1995), a collection of early accounts of baseball, cautioned that although the article 'mentions the magic word, you can't equate that exactly to what we know as baseball today.' +The Advocate article has no description of the game it refers to. Many rules of the modern game, like foul territory and throwing to a base to get a player out, were not known to have been formally introduced until the 1846 match in Hoboken. Other elements, like nine innings in a game and nine players to a team, did not become the norm until the following decade, scholars say. +So, the 1823 game could have resembled any of the ancestors of baseball that were being played at the time. For example, a game called town ball (probably played before or after a town meeting) required a player to be hit with the ball to be called out. In cricket and rounders, all the players took a turn at bat. Variations of another game, known as ol' cat, used holes as bases and required players to stick their bats in them as they raced from one to the next. +'History is much more interesting, much more messy, and baseball has 1,000 fathers,' Mr. Thorn said. +Ball games involving bases were mentioned in print as early as the 18th century, said David Q. Voigt, a retired professor of sociology and anthropology at Albright College in Reading, Pa., and the author of a three-volume history of baseball. +For instance, a doctor in George Washington's army in Valley Forge, Pa., wrote of a game where players ran from base to base, he said. Children's books of that century described a similar game. And Mr. Thorn points out that an Englishwoman named Lady Hervey wrote in a letter in 1748 that the family of the Prince of Wales was 'diverting themselves with baseball, a play all who are or have been schoolboys are well acquainted with.' +By the early 1830's, a version of baseball was starting to be played by clubs in New York, according to a book published several decades later. But after its mention in The Advocate in 1823, references to the game did not crop up again in New York newspapers until the 1840's, scholars say. +Mr. Thompson said he had looked through thousands of early 19th century newspapers on microfilm without finding any other reference to baseball. (As for why he spends hours each week poring over such papers, he said, 'It's a cheap hobby, and it keeps me from falling into the company of frolicsome women.') +'Finding this paragraph on the 1823 ballgame was an accident,' he said as he stood outside his cluttered office, a navy blue tie with white baseball diamonds dangling over his belly. 'I certainly didn't go looking for it. Anyone who goes looking for something specific in newspapers of that era is in for a lot of frustration.' +As baseball overtook cricket in popularity after the Civil War, it showed up in more and more writings. People would wax nostalgic over how it was played during their childhoods, Mr. Sullivan said. One politician, for instance, wrote in 1884 of seeing the game in Rochester in 1825, only two years after it was played at the Retreat in Manhattan. +But such recollections are unconfirmed and possibly apocryphal, Mr. Sullivan said. +By the 1880's, baseball had already entered the mythos of the United States as a symbol of an 'idyllic, rural American past, an expression of nostalgic desire for 'the good old days,' ' Mr. Sullivan wrote in 'Early Innings.' In other words, it had become the national pastime." +False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"2 Guilty of Killing Man Who Tried to Stop Fight +Two men were convicted yesterday in the fatal beating of a man who tried to intervene in an argument on behalf of a young woman, officials said. +The victim, Alan Wedemeire, 41, was walking home from his sister's house in Pompton Lakes on Sept. 26, 1996, when he saw Kevin McGrath, now 22, having a heated argument with the woman, who was Mr. McGrath's girlfriend, said Walt Dewey Jr., senior assistant Passaic County prosecutor.

In exchange, an imprisoned Cali cartel leader, Luis Santacruz Echeverri, would receive a reduced sentence, to 14 years from 23. +Mr. Bilonick served three years. +At General Noriega's trial, Mr. Bilonick testified that the general had allowed cocaine to be shipped through Panama by the Medellin cartel, a rival of the Cali organization. Defense lawyers said that the jury should have been told that this testimony came as part of a larger deal, and that the cartel might have compelled Mr. Bilonick to testify with offer of rewards and threats -- ""silver and lead."" +""This reflects a level of hypocrisy and cynicism beyond words,"" Frank A.

Manuel Antonio Noriega, a Federal district judge today ordered lawyers not to discuss with reporters a possible move of the defendant from downtown Miami. +The Judge, William M. Hoeveler, also ordered that the lawyers' motions related to a move of General Noriega be kept under seal. +Judge Hoeveler's order came at a closed hearing in his chambers at which defense lawyers had said they would object to a planned transfer of General Noriega from a cell in the basement of the Federal courthouse here to a more secure Federal prison, possibly out of state. The Government's prosecutors had served notice Wednesday that they planned to move the general. +The judge said in an interview today that he ordered the lawyers not to discuss the hearing to protect General Noriega's security. He declined to be more specific, saying: 'Anything I might say on this subject would really be getting into the contents of the hearing. That would not be appropriate. I hate to be so vague, but that's the best I can do at the moment.' +Motions to Be Under Seal +Earlier this week, Judge Hoeveler also ordered that any motions involving intelligence materials be kept under seal and that any court sessions related to secret documents be closed to reporters. Sensitive documents are expected to be an important part of the drug-trafficking case against General Noriega because of his longtime connections to United States intelligence organizations. Defense lawyers say they will seek certain classified records to help them in their defense of General Noriega, who was for years a source of American intelligence in Central America. +The judge said that all documents in the case would be made public except those related to national security and the defendant's security. +Document Reviews Planned +Frank A. Rubino, a lawyer for General Noriega, said the judge was making arrangements for the safekeeping of classified documents that may be used in the case, and that defense and prosecution lawyers would be able to review sets of those documents at separate sites. +Although Mr. Rubino would not discuss the issue of moving General Noriega, he was more forthcoming in an interview Thursday evening before the judge issued the order. He said then that he would file a lengthy motion with the court today outlining why the Federal authorities should not move his client. +The judge said he instructed the court clerk today not to make that motion public, at least until Tuesday. +The Federal authorities have said that General Noriega needs to be moved to a more secure site and that his lawyers would be given a travel allowance to visit their client out of state. +Only after defense lawyers protested to the court did the judge block a move of General Noriega earlier this week. On Wednesday, the prosecutors filed a document with the court serving notice that the United States Marshals Service could move General Noriega after 6 P.M. that day. +But Mr. Rubino said Thursday that he was 'obviously going to strenuously oppose' a move on several grounds, notably that his client would not be afforded adequate access to his counsel if he was moved from South Florida. +Atlanta a Possible Site +Government officials have contended that the closest Federal prison secure enough to house a prisoner as well known as General Noriega is the Federal penitentiary in Atlanta. Mr. Rubino said he had been told early in the week by Federal officials that they wanted to move his client to Atlanta. +General Noriega was accused in an indictment returned here by a grand jury in February 1988 of receiving more than $4.6 million to protect cocaine shipments from Medellin, Colombia, through Panama to the United States. In addition, he was accused of assisting in the laundering of drug money and of arranging for the sale of chemicals used to produce cocaine. +A Federal magistrate today set bail at $1 million for one of General Noriega's 15 co-defendants, Daniel Miranda, who is charged with flying $800,000 in laundered drug money from Fort Lauderdale to Miami.

But the first week of the trial of Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega offered more in the nature of historical detail than startling new facts about any involvement of the deposed Panamanian dictator in cocaine trafficking, money laundering and racketeering. +Prosecutors set that tone early by calling a political scientist who has written extensively on Panama, Stephen C. Ropp of the University of Wyoming, as the first of their 75 or so witnesses. Since then, the bulk of the testimony heard has been instructional, with the jury of nine women and three men assiduously jotting down a multitude of unfamiliar names, places and dates in the loose-leaf notebooks and shorthand pads issued to them. +The emphasis on background has been evident even in the testimony of Lieut. Col. Luis del Cid, who for 25 years was one of General Noriega's most intimate associates. Like General Noriega, Colonel del Cid surrendered in the American invasion of Panama in December 1989 and was spirited to Miami. He later pleaded guilty to delivering drug payoffs to his former boss and agreed to testify for the prosecution. 'Noriega's Errand Boy' +General Noriega, who contends he is a prisoner of war but has not otherwise protested the proceedings against him since the trial began, could be sentenced to up to 140 years in prison if convicted of all 10 of the charges he faces. Prosecutors say he allowed shipments of Colombian cocaine through Panama in exchange for some of the profits and helped the dealers disguise some of their own proceeds. +Colonel del Cid, who described himself as ""General Noriega's errand boy"" and bodyguard, is expected to provide some of the most damaging testimony, as he hinted in a brief explanation of his guilty plea. +""It was drug money,"" he told Assistant United States Attorney Myles Mahlman of the packages entrusted to him for transfer to his commanding officer. ""I pleaded guilty to charges of having delivered drug money to Noriega."" +The bulk of Colonel del Cid's testimony thus far, however, has dealt with the history of the Panamanian military, its organization and its relations with civilian politicians. Without mentioning any of the incidents included in the indictment, he has argued that little happened in the Panamanian Government without General Noriega's awareness and consent. +""Nothing came through the airport of Panama that General Noriega did not know about,"" Colonel del Cid testified. As head of military intelligence, he added, General Noriega ""controlled everything that was military or civilian, everything, everything"" from military assignments and promotions to ""the docks, labor unions and student movements."" Mysterious Briefcases +Colonel del Cid also said that when the general was Colonel Noriega, before mid-1983, it was common for Panamanian presidents and cabinet members to be summoned to his office to discuss matters of state, despite the fact they were his nominal superiors. He recalled one occasion in which the country's attorney general, who visited ""quite frequently,"" handed a briefcase over to Colonel Noriega. +What did the briefcase contain? prosecutors asked. ""It had to be money,"" Colonel del Cid said. But General Noriega's lawyer, Frank Rubino, objected, and the remark was stricken from the recor'd. +Colonel del Cid's testimony also appears to have broken through the reserve General Noriega had previously displayed in the courtroom. As his former subordinate was leaving court after his first afternoon on the witness stand, General Noriega called out his name three times. When the prosecution raised the issue later, Mr. Rubino said he had admonished his client to hold his tongue, but the incident also seems to have left a mark on Colonel del Cid. He now sits turned away from General Noriega as he testifies." +False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,"For the Families Left Behind, A Holiday Comforted by Duty +LEAD: Snow robbed the church of one musician.

Phillip Leach spoke of the need for faith to overcome confusion. +Snow robbed the church of one musician. War robbed it of another. As the two guitarists who remained beckoned Christmas with faltering hymns, the Rev. Phillip Leach spoke of the need for faith to overcome confusion. +He spoke of the challenge of faith that the Virgin Birth had brought to Joseph and Mary. Near sprawling Fort Bragg, the challenge for the members of the Good Shepherd Catholic Church was the invasion of Panama, which had sent their friends and relatives to war at Christmas time. +Father Leach spoke of watching a young girl ask her mother, 'Why won't my Daddy be home for Christmas?' 'God Was in the World' +Because he's in Panama, the mother said, then hugged her child. +'Somehow that mother's embrace made sure God was in the world,' Father Leach said. +Like the 35-year-old priest, many people in the communities surrounding Fort Bragg spoke of simple things this week, as more than 2,000 local soldiers went to war. As many people here describe it, the invasion of Panama is not an adventure; it's a job. +Renae Hodge conveyed that sense of sober professionalism when she described her feelings this week at having her husband, Capt. James Hodge, parachute into a Central American war. +'I know that Jim is having a good time, to be honest with you,' she said. 'This may be the only time he ever gets to exercise those excellent skills that he's been preparing for 10 years.' No Sign of Swagger +Perhaps as important as the language invoked is the language omitted. No one mentions Rambo. Swagger, for the most part, is out. +And only a few soldiers or their families here emphasized the misdeeds of Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega. But a more neutral pride, in simply carrying out orders, is more frequently stressed. +As the peacetime Army turned to war, there were other emotions being expressed here, too. Along with pride in professional soldiering, there was renewed - or, for the young, new - appreciation of its perils. +Many teen-agers here expect to inherit lives in the military, which seems to offer stability: a paycheck, a pension, privileges on the post. In Hope Mills this week, a military commitment offered something else: the death of Jerry Scott Daves, a 20-year-old private killed in Panama. 'You Can Get Killed' +'I had one teen-ager say to me this week: 'I've always thought of soldiering as a job, Father, but this is something you can get killed in,' ' Father Leach said before Mass. +'I wouldn't say it shatters their world view; that would be too melodramatic,' the priest said. 'But it does shake it.' +Rumors that the advent of Christmas would compete with the advent of war were circulating and the surrounding Fayetteville region the weekend before the American invasion. +But it was not until the soldiers reported to work on the morning of Monday, Dec. 18, that most of the them learned they had been placed in a state of emergency readiness that would keep them from returning home in the evening. No Chance to Call Home +With plans calling for phones to be guarded, many soldiers did not have the chance to call home. Mrs. Hodge said her husband, who did reach a phone, said simply: 'I'm busy working and I won't be home for supper.' +Readiness drills like these take place dozens of times a year at Fort Bragg, with troops loaded, lifted and dropped by parachute, sometimes right back onto Fort Bragg. But beginning Monday night and continuing through Tuesday, Army officials said, the troops were herded into secured areas and told of their destination. +Lieut. Col. William L. Hufham, the division chaplain, visited with the assembled paratroopers on Tuesday afternoon, as they waited in a North Carolina ice storm for their night drop into the tropics. How Word Was Spread +'The attitude was, 'We're trained to do the job and we'll go in and do it to the best of our ability,' ' he said. 'What I did not see was any bravado or macho displays.' +Once word of the invasion became official on Wednesday morning, it reached most families through a network of wives. Mrs. Hodge said she was called by the wife of her husband's commanding officer, passing along a brief official statement. She wrote it down, careful not to paraphrase, and in turn notified families of the soldiers under her husband's immediate command. +'I just said, 'Let me find out who's involved, and what's going on, and we'll go from there,' ' she said. +Support groups assembled on the post later that day. A family assistance center addressed problems like lost keys, and chaplains began distributing food to families caught short. Colonel Hufham, the division chaplain, said some soldiers had drawn advances for Christmas, leaving behind skipped paychecks for their families. +Caroline McElligott, an 18-year-old Fayetteville student, greeted the news of the invasion with less matter-of-factness than Mrs. Hodge did. 'What if He Dies?' +'I was shocked when I found out my boyfriend got deployed,' she said. 'We had just gotten in an argument and just made up, and I was like, 'Oh my God, what if he dies?' ' +The news that carried one kind of meaning for the girlfriends and wives of the soldiers in battle carried another for the soldiers left behind, including regret over missed chances for glory or the simple opportunity to perform. +The First Battalion of the 505th Parachute Infantry Regiment was enjoying the end of a two-week leave on Wednesday when news of the invasion reached them at scattered points across the country. The battalion was immediately recalled to Fort Bragg and placed on the Army's highest readiness status, meaning that if paratroopers are needed anywhere in the world, they will be the next to go. +In mess halls, offices and barracks this week, they talked of the frustration, and occasional fears, that come from being left behind. +Lieut. Ted Schjoth said that of the eight members of his infantry school class now stationed at Fort Bragg, he is the only one not in Panama. 'You're missing out on a lot of things,' he said. 'The ultimate test of an infantryman is combat. They're getting that test and we're not.' +In slightly different terms, Brian Pruitt, a 20-year-old private from Canton, Tex., echoed the feeling. 'It's like practicing all your life for a football game and never getting to play,' he said. +'They're going to get gold stars and all that good stuff,' he said. +As the week wore on, news of the war traveled home in greater detail, including phone calls from soldiers who had found their way to Panamanian phones. +At a post with a saying of 'Train the way you fight in order to fight the way you train,' most of the storytelling emphasized competence and calm. 'You Just Do Your Job' +Lieut. Patrick Fahy of the Air Force was a navigator aboard one of the personnel planes that flew low and slow over hostile fire while the parachutists jumped. 'You just do your job,' he told reporters at a news conference at Fort Bragg. 'We train around here every day, and it wasn't much more than a training mission.' +Sgt. Berry Kelly was one of 37 wounded men transported back to Fort Bragg by Saturday, and wearing a prized Purple Heart, he met reporters in a hospital conference room. +Sergeant Kelly said he went into a 150-foot free fall after another paratrooper passed over the top of his chute, causing it to collapse. The crash landing left the 23-year-old squad leader with torn ligaments in his ankle. +'I love the 82d Airborne Division,' he said. 'I live for the 82d Airborne Division. As a leader, I don't feel it's right for me to be back here and me to still have men back in Panama.' +As Sergeant Kelly was emphasizing duty and discipline in a Fort Bragg hospital, freer emotional rein was being given several miles away, at Cross Creek Mall. A Card From a Town +A local television station erected a huge makeshift Christmas card - a series of panels 4 feet wide and 8 feet tall, to be shipped to Panama - and invited the town to sign. +Lynn Carraway, the mall's marketing director, said 200 people were already in line to sign the card when the panels arrived Saturday. +Here was an impulse outlet, for bravado and sentiment alike. +'Kick Ass and Don't Bother Taking Names,' wrote 'Meathead and Annie.' +'I love you with all my heart, Shawn,' wrote 'Mom, Dad, Jen and Tim.' +But the card was also one of the few places in town that drew skeptics. 'It sets a bad example, because the Soviets are in the process of curtailing their military expenditures,' said Robert Lint, the 32-year-old manager of a jewelry store in the mall. +Such thinking is clearly a minority view here. +But for a community sending thousands of men to war, in a season of peace, the dutiful refrains now being sounded may disguise more complicated reactions to emerge later. +Father Leach, who says much of the counseling he does relates to events that occurred in Grenada and even Vietnam, takes this view. +The attempt to support men at war while celebrating the 'Prince of Peace,' he said, is at best 'a real conundrum.' +'What usually comes out is: 'My devotion to the Prince of Peace is what gives me the strength to do my job,' ' he said. +As the two guitarists at Sunday's Mass - both of them on active service - strummed the entrance hymn, they stopped before the second chorus: 'Comfort all my people; the time for war is gone.' +Just a coincidence, they said. +FIGHTING IN PANAMA" +True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"New Captain America Helps U.S. Move On +There was no need for a desperate finish this time against Panama, no threatening loss of control. The United States has become the dominant soccer power in the North American, Central American and Caribbean region, and it played with a forceful and businesslike urgency on Wednesday night. +With superior energy and speed, and a stifling defense, the United States defeated Panama, 6-0, before 19,793 at Robert F. Kennedy Stadium. The young forward Eddie Johnson scored three goals and the captain Landon Donovan scored two as the United States advanced to the final round of qualifying for the World Cup. +Six countries from the region will play a round-robin series beginning in February. The top three teams will advance to the 2006 World Cup in Germany, and a fourth will enter a playoff against an Asian team. +Panama (1-1-2) had relentlessly attacked the American defense in the second half of a match last month in Panama, and the United States needed a goal by Cobi Jones in added time to rescue a 1-1 draw. There was no suspense on Wednesday, and the final game in this round, next month against Jamaica, has been rendered inconsequential for the Americans. +Donovan, 22, has been exquisite with his timing, decision making and creativity in this semifinal qualifying round, threading passes, scoring goals, running ceaselessly at both ends of the field. +Johnson, 20, has made only two appearances for the national team but has scored four goals. His performance Wednesday was only the eighth hat trick for the national team and the first delivered by a substitute. Johnson entered in the 65th minute and delivered three goals in a blistering 17 minutes. +In the 21st minute, the United States (3-0-2) counterattacked, and midfielder Eddie Lewis sent forward Josh Wolff down the left flank. His career has often been interrupted by injury, but Wolff still possesses stirring pace, vision and anticipation. He drilled a low pass to the charging Donovan, who punched the ball into the net from 5 yards for a 1-0 lead. +In the 57th minute, the defensive midfielder Kerry Zavagnin pushed the ball to Donovan behind the Panamanian defense. As he was being taken down by defender Carlos Rivera, Donovan floated a shot under the crossbar from 12 yards. +Donovan has worn the captain's armband twice in four days in the absence of Claudio Reyna, who is injured. His performance has seemed to rise with the responsibility placed on him. +'The armband helps Landon realize who he is,' Coach Bruce Arena said. 'I stress to our younger players all the time they need to emerge a little bit, in particular Landon. Landon needs challenges. He's a fantastic player. When you challenge him and he responds, you see the kind of player he is.' +Johnson scored in his first appearance for the national team on Saturday night in a 2-0 victory in El Salvador, and he continued his remarkable efficiency on Wednesday. +Defender Carlos Bocanegra served a perfect cross from the left flank in the 70th minute, and Johnson headed it softly into the net. +In the 84th minute, Johnson scored again on a header after a splendid three-pass sequence in the penalty area. He redirected a pass from Lewis for the hat trick in the 87th minute. The final United States score came in the 90th minute on an own goal by Panama. +The Panamanian defenders were tired and forced to chase the ball in the final 25 minutes, and they were no match for Johnson's elegant speed and smart positioning. +'Eddie would be the first to tell you he benefited from his teammates these last two games,' Arena said. 'It's not like he carried the whole load himself. But there's a lot to be said for getting in goal-scoring position and sticking the ball in the back of the net.' +The United States has forged maturity out of the depression of losing all three games at the 1998 World Cup and the elation of reaching the quarterfinals in 2002. It is a team with an encouraging mix of youth and experience, one that has learned to play with great resolve, losing only once in 14 matches this year. +And now it is only one round away from a fifth consecutive appearance in the World Cup. +'If you're going to go in a lab and plan how to do it,' Arena said, 'this is how.' +SOCCER" +False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"DRUG CASE FIGURE SAYS HE IS GUILTY +LEAD: In an action that might help strengthen the Government's case against Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega, a Panamanian jet pilot pleaded guilty today to charges that he transported hundreds of thousands of dollars in illegal drug proceeds from Florida to Panama. +In an action that might help strengthen the Government's case against Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega, a Panamanian jet pilot pleaded guilty today to charges that he transported hundreds of thousands of dollars in illegal drug proceeds from Florida to Panama. +The pilot, Eduardo Pardo, 44 years old, is the first to admit wrongdoing among five co-defendants in the drug trafficking case against the deposed Panamanian leader. Mr. Pardo is to be sentenced April 25. +In Federal District Court, Mr. Pardo, who was captured by United States troops and Drug Enforcement Administration agents soon after the American invasion of Panama in December, assured Judge William M. Hoeveler in Spanish that his decision to concede guilt had not grown out of a plea-bargaining agreement with the United States Attorney's office here. Testimony Against Noriega? But since Mr. Pardo automatically waived his Fifth Amendment right against compelled self-incrimination with his guilty plea, it is considered all but certain that prosecutors will seek to compel him to testify against the general and some other co-defendants. +The real question is whether Mr. Pardo has information that can shed new light on the links between the general, the other defendants and the drug operations in Medellin, Colombia. +Mr. Pardo's court-appointed lawyer, William A. Meadows Jr., a former United States Attorney, said he did not know whether his client had such information or if he would testify. +The chief prosecutor, Assistant United States Attorney Michael P. Sullivan, said Mr. Pardo had regularly received his orders to transport money from Floyd Carleton Cacerez, who has been identified as one of General Noriega's personal pilots. +Other Lawyers Discount Move +Mr. Pardo, a former captain in General Noriega's minuscule air force, was said to have been later employed as a pilot for Inair Airlines, a Panamanian air-freight company implicated in cocaine shipments. Prosecutors suggested that his real employers were the Colombians and General Noriega. +Lawyers for the other defendants characterized Mr. Pardo's plea as a practical decision by a low-level figure that would have little effect on their clients' prospects for acquittal. 'I don't think it affects our case in any way, shape or form,' the chief Noriega lawyer, Frank A. Rubino, said outside the courtroom, where he had watched the morning's proceedings as a spectator. 'If Mr. Pardo tells the truth, he can't hurt us.' +The prosecutor told Judge Hoeveler that in February 1983, Mr. Pardo flew from Executive Airport at Fort Lauderdale to Panama carrying $685,000 in cash, which the prosecutor said Mr. Pardo knew was the 'proceeds of narcotics trafficking by Colombians in South Florida.' Mr. Sullivan said the money was used to buy a Lear jet and outfit it with compartments to carry large amounts of cash. +Facing Up to 5 Years +Three months later, the prosecutor told the judge, Mr. Pardo and a co-pilot, Daniel Miranda, used the Lear jet to carry $800,000 of the drug ring's money from Fort Lauderdale to Panama. +Michael O'Kane, a lawyer for Mr. Miranda, said the plea of guilty 'doesn't mean anything at all to my client, who I can say categorically did not know that there was $800,000 aboard that plane.' +Mr. Pardo faces as much as five years in prison and a $10,000 fine.

Manuel Antonio Noriega, and aides to both men say further disputes between them are likely as the political campaign accelerates. +President Reagan and Vice President Bush seem to have agreed to disagree on how to deal with Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega, and aides to both men say further disputes between them are likely as the political campaign accelerates. +The White House today defended the Administration's negotiations aimed at ousting the Panamanian leader. But aides to the Vice President said he was trying to distance himself from the Administration's policy. +While Mr. Bush's associates said he opposed any deal with General Noriega, who faces American criminal charges of drug-running, it is not clear that the Vice President has ever given that advice directly to Mr. Reagan or attempted to dissuade him from pursuing the negotiations. What is clear is concern in the Bush campaign over polls showing that he trails Michael S. Dukakis and that the public sees the Democrats as handling the drug issue better than the Republicans. Conflicting Reports on Talks +Behind the political calculations today lay conflicting reports here that the negotiations with General Noriega, which might result in the dropping of the criminal charges against him, were either on the verge of completion or on the verge of failure. +The idea that Mr. Bush differs with Mr. Reagan on the issue arose from a remark in a speech in Los Angeles on Wednesday. 'Drug dealers are domestic terrorists, killing kids and cops, and they should be treated as such,' Mr. Bush said. 'I won't bargain with terrorists, and I won't bargain with drug dealers either, whether they're on U.S. or foreign soil.' +Mr. Bush did not mention General Noriega and would not elaborate, but both his aides and White House officials later cited the comment as a real break over negotiating with General Noriega. And today, Bush aides said, the Vice President continued to make his views known at the White House. Reagan Sees Misimpression +The negotiations have indeed been the subject of genuine dispute within the Administration, a fight that one official described as 'monumental.' +Today Mr. Reagan did not make an issue of the Vice President's remarks about negotiating with drug dealers and the apparent disagreement. +'I can see why the Vice President said what he said,' Mr. Reagan said in an interview with foreign journalists, 'because the impression has been given, based not on information from us, but based on rumors and news leaks and so forth, that we are in negotiations somehow with a participant in their drug trade and all.' +Mr. Reagan insisted that the talks with General Noriega had nothing to do with the drug trade. 'Our goal, what we're trying to achieve, is the restoration of democracy in Panama,' he said. 'This Is Hardball' +At one point today, Administration officials were expected to make an announcement about the negotiations, but officials differed about the content of that message. +Some Administration officials said the State Department would announce that a deal with the general had fallen through. Later, however, the same officials said the negotiations were continuing after Mr. Reagan and Secretary of State George P. Shultz decided that further talks would be worthwhile. +'It was going to fall apart, but now negotiations continue,' one Administration official said. 'This is hardball.' +Assistant Attorney General Charles J. Cooper, head of the Justice Department's Office of Legal Counsel and one of the closest aides of Attorney General Edwin Meese 3rd, was in Panama secretly to aid in the discussions. But he returned to Washington in the last two days for additional consultations with Mr. Meese and State Department officials over the final terms, according to Administration officials. Question of Credibility +One official said that those inside the Administration who were critical of the negotiations include Treasury Secretary James A. Baker 3d, senior Justice Department officials and key political advisers within the White House. +The official said Mr. Bush believes that the negotiations are damaging his credibility and election prospects and that he opposes the negotiations on substantive as well as political grounds. +'George Bush can't make a speech these days with any credibility about drugs if we're dealing with the drug kingpin of the world,' said one senior Bush aide, The Vice President was named by Mr. Reagan in 1982 to head a Federal task force to coordinate efforts against the flow of drugs into South Florida, a role that was later expanded to cover the nation as a whole. +Marlin Fitzwater, the White House spokesman, insisted today that the disagreement was both normal and amicable and was causing no hard feelings in the White House. +Addressing the White House News Photographers' Association annual awards dinner tonight, President Reagan said he hoped Mr. Bush would be elected, because he would make an excellent President. Mr. Reagan then showed a slide depicting himself and his wife in an attitude of shock and horror, and the President said, 'Here Nancy and I are listening to one of his speeches.' Everyone laughed. +Earlier in the day, Mr. Fitzwater said of Mr. Bush: 'We will expect him to speak out in any number of issues. And we expect many of his ideas for future activities to be different from what we have been doing here in the past.' +As Peter Teeley, a spokesman for Mr. Bush, put it, 'I think this is an inevitable part of the 1988 campaign.' Playing Both Sides +Bush aides appeared to want to have it both ways. They told reporters that Mr. Bush's remarks amounted to a declaration of independence, while at the same time contending that the Vice President was merely stating his own views and was not directly criticizing the President. +Mr. Bush chose the Noriega issue to spell out his views in part because he had wide political cover. The Senate, including most Republicans, voted overwhelmingly this week for a resolution opposing the negotiations with General Noriega. In addition, the timing was right, because Mr. Bush had finally received the President's endorement and was the certain Presidential nominee of the party. Worry Over the Polls +Most importantly, recent public opinion polls had shown a sharp shift toward the Democrats, and Bush advisers decided that they had to act quickly. 'All of them are in shock,' said a Republican strategist with close ties to the White House. 'We could lose Senate seats, we could lose House seats. This Dukakis thing is starting to grab hold, and we've got a problem.' +Bush aides were at the White House this morning, working out a common public relations strategy for the day, and Mr. Fitzwater repeatedly declined to criticize the Vice President's remarks. +'If you want to drive a wedge between the White House and the Vice President, forget it,' he told reporters. +But despite his words significant disagreements continued to trouble the Administration policy toward Panama. +Foreign policy and national security officials, whose primary aim is to dislodge General Noriega, have argued that using the criminal indictments as leverage against him is a reasonable and defensible policy. Comparison to Marcos +One senior White House official compared the campaign against General Noriega to the successful effort to oust President Ferdinand Marcos from power in the Philippines. He described both leaders as 'pretty loathsome individuals' and noted that Mr. Marcos was allowed to leave his country and take up residence in Hawaii. +'In the next month, if Noriega moves to Switzerland, and democracy is restored to Panama, I don't think it will be viewed as a negative,' the official said.' +Law-enforcement officials have opposed dropping the indictments, on the ground that it would send a bad signal about the Administration's determination to prosecute drug dealers.

Manuel Antonio Noriega, his lawyer, Frank A. Rubino, asserts that the Federal authorities improperly tape-recorded telephone conversations between the general and his lawyers. Mr. Rubino said Cable News Network told him it had obtained seven tapes of the general's telephone conversations from someone at the Federal Metropolitan Correctional Center near Miami. +Mr Rubino said at least one tape involved members of his firm and he called this ""a horrendous violation"" of the general's constitutional rights. The lawyer said he would seek to have the entire case dismissed. +But interviews yesterday with legal experts and with officials of the Federal Bureau of Prisons indicated that such claims might be very difficult to prove. For one thing, Federal prison regulations require all inmates to sign a bilingual form acknowledging that all telephones open to inmates are monitored. 'Very Hard to Prove' +For another, even in cases where Government informants sat in on lawyer-defendant meetings and then reported back to prosecutors, higher courts have required the defense to prove that its case was hurt or that prosecutors were aided by the information. +""This is going to be very hard to prove,"" said Prof. Yale Kamisar of the University of Michigan Law School, an expert on legal rights. ""Higher courts are very reluctant to dismiss a whole case."" +A criminal defendant's ability to confer with his lawyer free of interference is based on the Sixth Amendment providing the accused with counsel. In addition, constitutional rules provide that once legal proceedings like an indictment are under way, the government ought to have its case in order and allow the defense to prepare its response without interference. +Although over the years many defense lawyers have said that their conversations with clients on telephones or in visiting rooms were taped, few cases appear in legal literature or in higher court decisions. Experts believe prosecutors drop most such cases when the defense has merit. Court's Standard of Injury +Professor Kamisar cited a 1984 drug trafficking case in Boston, United States v. Mastroianni, in which a co-defendant attended a meeting with several defendants and their lawyers, The co-defendant then reported on the proceedings to the prosecution. After considerable investigation the trial judge ruled, and the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit affirmed, that the mere attendance and reporting was insufficient to dismiss the case. +The defense, the courts said, must show ""a realistic possibility of injury"" or ""a benefit to the state"" from the Government's intrusion. Such was not the case, the judges said, because the Government already knew all the information passed on. +To protect against potential claims by defendants, a number of Federal regulations have been instituted over the years, said Greg Bogdan, a spokesman for the Bureau of Prisons, which oversees the 58,500 inmates in the country's 72 Federal prisons. These include five Metropolitan Detention Centers, in New York City, San Diego, Los Angeles, Chicago and Miami, where accused are held near courthouses during their legal proceedings. +Although he has special quarters, General Noriega is being held in the Miami center along with 1,233 other Federal prisoners. Upon entry, all prisoners must sign a form in English and Spanish acknowledging they have been told that all phone conversations are monitored unless they involve a defense lawyer. This is to prevent plans for an escape or new crimes, Mr. Bogdan said. Rules Apply to All Prisoners +Bilingual signs are by every phone, the spokesman said, warning of the tape recording. If a prisoner tells the person making the call for him that it is to his lawyer, standard procedure requires the guard to notify the monitor not to tape the next outgoing call. Once the parties are connected, the spokesman said, the monitor hangs up without taping. +Mr. Bogdan said the same phone rules apply to all Federal prisoners. They may not receive incoming calls, although lawyers known to prison authorities may send phone messages to have their clients call them. +Mr. Bogdan said the only limits placed on outgoing calls, which must be collect, are those imposed by limited facilities; at peak times in a crowded prison, for instance, all calls might be limited to 15 minutes, or a prisoner in maximum security might have to wait until a guard could bring a phone to a jack near his cell. If a prisoner used a phone to threaten someone outside, Mr. Bogdan said the prisoner's phone privileges might be restricted for some days. +Because of the volume, few conversations are monitored as they are in progress, though all tapes are screened later by a prison staff member, Mr. Bogdan said. Those appearing suspicious are referred to Federal investigators. Some criminal prosecutions have resulted such as when investigators deciphered the conversational codes used between imprisoned leaders of Chicago's El Rukns street gang directing colleagues on the outside in illegal activitiies. +Tapes are kept in the prison by the monitors for a period, typically 90 days, Mr. Bogdan said, and then reused. CNN has not disclosed the source of its tapes. +Additionally, all mail coming to prisoners is opened and read. At minimum- and medium-security prisons, outgoing mail is not scrutinized. At maximum-security prisons, it is." +False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,"CNN Asks Judge to Ignore Its 1990 Report on Use of Noriega Tapes +Lawyers for CNN asked a Federal district judge today to disregard the network's newscasts and press releases four years ago that explained why it broadcast recorded telephone calls by Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega despite the judge's order not to do so. +The news reports and a statement issued by the network in November 1990 said the tapes were being made public because CNN had the right under the First Amendment. But in closing arguments in the network's trial on criminal contempt charges today, a lawyer for CNN, William B. Killian, said there was no intention of defy the judge, William M. Hoeveler, who is hearing the contempt case without a jury. +Judge Hoeveler said at the conclusion of arguments that he would not announce his verdict until he reviewed the evidence and read the legal citations. He also said the all-news network's lawyers had ""raised some very good points."" +Throughout the four-day trial as well as in today's closing arguments, CNN executives and lawyers have told the judge to ignore the network's own reporting in some instances. Those instances included introductory remarks made by an anchor, Bernard Shaw, as well as a live report by a network correspondent, John Zarrella, from the Federal courthouse here. +At one point Steven Korn, the chief counsel for CNN's parent company, the Turner Broadcasting System Inc., urged Judge Hoeveler to disregard the courthouse report, which said CNN was going to defy the judge by using the Noriega tapes. +""This is live on the fly,"" Mr. Korn said as he watched a videotape of the report, pointing to the ""live"" label in the corner of the screen. He called Mr. Zarrella's report an ""interpretation"" made by a nonlawyer. +Judge Hoeveler, who was preparing to preside over General Noriega's trial on drug charges in Federal District Court, had ordered CNN not to broadcast the tapes, which were recorded by Federal officials while the former Panamanian leader was being held in the Metropolitan Correction Center in Miami. The general was later convicted and sentenced to 40 years in prison, which he is serving while appealing the verdict. +The independent counsel appointed to prosecute the contempt case, Robert F. Dunlap, argued that CNN's true motive was indeed found in the reports and the press release. ""They told the public that CNN was about to violate the orders of this court,"" he said. ""They believed that the court's order was an unconstitutional prior restraint of their First Amendment rights."" +That original argument had been rejected by higher courts, including the Supreme Court, and this week CNN's lawyers presented another justification for using the recordings. They said the network believed that General Noriega and his lawyers had implicitly waived their confidentiality when the lead lawyer listened to the recordings while being interviewed by CNN. +""That's a completely unreasonable, tortured interpretation of the court's order,"" Mr. Dunlap said." +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,"Fear Drove Rivera to Relocate His Family Here +Mariano Rivera happily remembers opening his back door as a boy in Puerto Caimito, Panama, and being 100 feet from the beach. When the tide was low, Rivera said, it looked as if the soft sand stretched forever. The beach was Rivera's favorite baseball field, an endless playground. +Rivera guessed that he played baseball 340 days a year. On the beach, on the dusty streets of the fishing village, on fields he and his friends cleared by uprooting shrubs with machetes, anywhere. Although he used cardboard for a glove, Rivera said it had been a wonderful experience and added, 'I wouldn't change one moment.' +Still, a few years ago, something was nudging Rivera away from his beloved Panama. It was fear. +Rivera, who makes $10 million a year to close games for the Yankees, worried that having his salary publicized could make his wife and children targets for a kidnapping. +Rivera quietly moved his immediate family to the United States full time after the 2000 season because he felt it would be safer. Rivera, who had two children at the time and has three now, consulted with the Yankees, who helped coordinate the relocation. Now the Riveras spend more than 11 months a year here or in Westchester County. +'I love Panama,' Rivera said. 'Everybody is there. We are family people. We like to be around our families. But for safety, I had to look out for my kids and my family.' +Rivera stopped fiddling with a weighted baseball in front of his locker on Monday morning, tilted his head back and discussed the unthinkable. +'All it takes is one crazy, maniac guy who wakes up that morning with my name in their mind,' Rivera continued. 'And I can't tolerate that.' +General Manager Brian Cashman declined to discuss Rivera's move or the Yankees' involvement in it. Even after Cashman was told that Rivera had mentioned the Yankees' involvement in his little-known decision, he refused to discuss it. In addition, Rivera was coy about what, if anything, had caused him to complete the move when he did. +The 35-year-old Rivera, who has been married to his wife, Clara, for 13 years, has three sons. +'If I was here and was away from them for one week, I would worry,' said Rivera, referring to his wife and sons, Mariano Jr., 11, Jafet, 8, and Jaziel, 2. 'I couldn't do it.' +Kidnapping is not epidemic in Panama. But Tom Clayton, whose company, Clayton Consultants, specializes in helping people involved in kidnap-for-ransom incidents, said the Panamanian police told him five years ago about an increasing problem involving a neighboring country. +Colombia, which borders Panama, has more kidnapping cases than any country in the world, Clayton said. The Panamanian police reported that some of its richer citizens had been targets of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, a leftist guerrilla group known by its Spanish acronym of FARC. +'The FARC has crossed the border into southern Panama and has been kidnapping wealthy Panamanians for the past few years,' Clayton said. 'In general, I'd estimate kidnaps in Panama aren't a big problem. But if I had $10 million a year income, I don't think I'd be there, either.' +Maura Villarreal, the mother of Detroit Tigers reliever Ugueth Urbina, was abducted from her home in Venezuela last September and held hostage for six months. The police learned that Venezuelans had abducted Villarreal and sold her to Colombians. +During the ordeal, Urbina received several calls on his cellphone from the Colombians, who demanded $6 million in ransom. The police rescued Villarreal last month from a drug-traffickers den in the Venezuelan jungle. +'It's not like the movies,' Urbina said after she returned home. 'This is real life.' +Life was simpler when Rivera was a skinny boy who loved baseball yet had no dreams of playing professionally. If he had not developed into one of the premier closers in the game, he said, he would have avoided becoming a fisherman like his father. A fishing boat Rivera was in capsized when he was 18. +Rivera speculated that he would have become a mechanic or a minister, and he would have been just as content as he is now. +Panama is not Rivera's residence anymore, but he gushed about it throughout a 45-minute conversation. 'I can't stay away from Panama,' he said. 'It's always with me.' +But Rivera has been there only once in the past year, to attend the funeral for his wife's cousins Victor Darío Avila and his son, Victor Leonel Avila, who died in a pool accident at Rivera's home in Puerto Caimito. +Rivera attended the funeral on the morning of Oct. 12, traveled 2,255 miles in the afternoon and saved the opener of the American League Championship Series against the Boston Red Sox at Yankee Stadium that night. +'That was all God there,' Rivera said Monday. 'I don't know how else I did it.' +Rivera remembered the day, calling the funeral joyous because it celebrated the lives of his wife's cousins. As devastating as the deaths were, he said, the family believed that the father and son were together with the Lord, so that lessened the pain. +Alexander Cubilla, who investigated the deaths, said Avila and his son died because the water in the pool had been electrified to prevent dogs from entering it. Maity Alvarez de Correa, a lawyer for the Rivera family, said that the wires surrounded the pool, but that the pool itself was not electrified. +'The investigation is officially closed,' Correa said in Spanish during a telephone interview. 'It was ruled an accident. It was obvious that it was an accident since the beginning. There was no doubt.' +Rivera lamented how some people tried to blame him for the accident. The two-story colonial villa surrounded by a six-foot wall is for sale. The Riveras do not plan to live there again. +'We can't go back there,' Rivera said. 'Not with those memories.' +For the first time last December, Rivera was not in Panama for Christmas. Instead, he flew 40 of his and Clara's relatives to New York for the holidays. Rivera said everyone stayed at his house, so some slept on couches and on the floor. +The crowded scene reminded Rivera of 'how we used to live' in Panama, and he embraced every second of the visit. Rivera said he, Clara and their children cry for hours when they have to say goodbye to their family, and those tears flowed again when they parted two months ago. +Rivera, a boy who grew up playing baseball on the beach in Panama and a man who still becomes wistful talking about it, said he would not retire there. +Rivera smiled when he was asked to imagine being 65 and fishing where his father had fished, but he was uncertain about the potentially picturesque scene. As much as things pull Rivera back to Panama, some things keep him away. He will never leave there. He just might not stay. +'I will always have a place there,' Rivera said. 'But live there? I don't know. Maybe I'll be in both places. Maybe I'll do that.' +BASEBALL" +False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Noriega Is Transferred To Cell in U.S. Prison +LEAD: Manuel Antonio Noriega, the fallen Panamanian leader, was transferred from the Federal courthouse to a Federal prison south of Miami tonight, the warden said. +Manuel Antonio Noriega, the fallen Panamanian leader, was transferred from the Federal courthouse to a Federal prison south of Miami tonight, the warden said. +General Noriega, who faces drug charges, has been held in an underground detention unit at the courthouse in downtown Miami since being brought to the United States on Jan. 4 following the United States invasion of his country. +General Noriega was admitted to the prison shortly after 7 P.M., said Stephen Pontesso, the warden of the medium-security Metropolitan Correctional Center, 25 miles south of here.

Manuel Antonio Noriega early next week. Lawyers for the deposed Panamanian leader will then break a long silence and are likely to argue that their client was a victim and opponent of the Medellin drug cartel, not an ally or accomplice. +When General Noriega's trial on cocaine trafficking and racketeering charges began in mid-September, the defense lawyer, Frank A. Rubino, elected not to make an opening statement. Nevertheless, remarks made by Mr. Rubino that are on file in court records provide glimpses of some of the arguments that he is expected to make in the weeks to come. +One of Mr. Rubino's strategies, the court documents indicate, is to argue that unscrupulous people in the pay of the cartel, based in Medellin, Colombia, duped the United States and General Noriega. Mr. Rubino is expected to say that the Panamanian leader was actually a partner with the United States in covert operations to supply arms to the Nicaraguan contras, or rebels, who sought to overthrow the Sandinista Government. +""Our theory is very simply a piggyback theory,"" Mr. Rubino said in one such document. ""Certain contra individuals, certain drug pilots, took advantage of an arms pipeline, not with the sanction of the United States."" That position would represent a shift from arguments that Mr. Rubino made in the early stages of the case. Courtroom Conferences +""The Government is trying to show that the general allowed a haven for drug dealings in and out,"" Mr. Rubino also said. ""I can show, 'No, this was not true, but rather, it was to assist the United States Government to assist the contras.' "" +Mr. Rubino's remarks were made in courtroom conferences with Federal District Judge William M. Hoeveler and prosecution lawyers in October and November held out of the hearing of the jurors and spectators. These informal conversations on rules of law and evidence, known as ""sidebars,"" are transcribed by the court reporter and become part of the public record, although their contents remain unknown to the jurors. +Among the witnesses to whom Mr. Rubino and his associate, Jon May, have issued subpoenas are Oliver L. North, the former National Security Council aide who ran contra supply operations for the Reagan Administration, and Lewis Tambs, a former United States Ambassador to Costa Rica. Both are expected to be hostile witnesses, and Mr. Rubino's area of questioning is likely to be limited by rulings Judge Hoeveler has already made. +In the 18 months of hearings that preceded the Noriega trial, Mr. Rubino and Mr. May indicated several times that they were prepared to argue that while General Noriega may have permitted drugs and arms to be shipped through Panama, he did so at the behest of the United States Government. +It is now clear that the Noriega defense team plans to argue that there was no official American connivance with any drug-smuggling scheme. That was demonstrated by the lawyers' reaction to testimony last month by Carlos Lehder Rivas, a founder of the Medellin cocaine cartel who is now serving a life sentence in a Federal prison. +At one point Mr. Lehder testified that American officials had approached him with a proposal that would have allowed him to ship cocaine to the United States if he in turn would assist the Reagan Administration in supplying weapons to the contras. The defense, however, told Judge Hoeveler that it did not plan to make use of Mr. Lehder's claim. +""This is not our pipeline theory,"" said Mr. May, referring to Mr. Lehder's testimony. ""It has never been our position before the court that the United States knowingly permitted cocaine to come into the United States. That's his assertion. Our position has been that people took advantage of an arms pipeline."" +In another conversation with Judge Hoeveler, Mr. May said: ""We will make it very clear we are not contending that Noriega worked with the C.I.A. to import drugs into the United States. That is not our defense."" Contras Likely to Be Blamed +From the court transcripts, it appears that Mr. Rubino intends to pin responsibility for some of the drug flights on some of General Noriega's former associates, like the pilot Floyd Carlton Caceres, who testified earlier in the trial that he smuggled drugs and weapons with the general's knowledge and approval. But it seems likely Mr. Rubino will assign a large part of the blame to the contras. +""Just because you are a contra doesn't mean you cannot smuggle drugs,"" Mr. Rubino said in one conference. ""We allege they did."" +In fact, Mr. Rubino said he would regard some of the contra leaders and their associates as unindicted co-conspirators in the indictment against his client. ""I have a list of names, not many, about four or five,"" he said. +The only name he specifically mentioned was that of Mario Calero, who was in charge of supply operations for the contras. In a telephone interview last month Adolfo Calero, brother of Mario Calero and the former political chief of the contras, denied that anti-Sandinista forces were ever involved in drug-trafficking operations. Laundering vs. Banking +General Noriega has also been charged with money laundering, and several witnesses have already testified that the Medellin cartel paid him a percentage of their earnings for the right to deposit their drug profits in Panamanian banks. But Mr. Rubino said he could make the argument that his client was merely seeking to strengthen his country's banking system, not to flout American law. +""I'm not trying to get into an esoteric discussion, but is it a crime against the United States for a sovereign nation to allow the deposit of money into their banks?"" he asked. ""Say it was earned illegally. That doesn't measure up to the standard of laundering."" +To buttress his argument, Mr. Rubino seems ready to acknowledge that General Noriega accepted payoffs for favors and deals. But he also seems ready to argue that such behavior was customary in Panama and that the payments the general accepted had nothing to do with drug trafficking. +""The leader, be it the military leader or the leader of the entire nation of Panama, if you will, accepts a gratuity, at the worst a bribe, if you want to call it that,"" he said. ""How does that rise to the level of a crime against the United States?""" +False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Banker Tells How Noriega Used B.C.C.I. Account +Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega and his family deposited at least $23 million into several secret numbered accounts at the Bank of Credit and Commerce International, and then shifted the money from country to country to keep their mounting personal wealth hidden, a former banker for the deposed Panamanian leader testified today. +The banker, Amjad Awan, a 44-year-old Pakistani who ran the Panama branch of B.C.C.I. in the early 1980's, said General Noriega made individual cash deposits as large as $3.4 million into four secret accounts he maintained for personal use. Beginning with an initial deposit of $100,000 in January 1982, General Noriega made large deposits ""every two or three months"" until early in 1988, when he was indicted by two grand juries in Florida on charges of cocaine trafficking, racketeering and money laundering. +Sometime in the middle of 1983, Mr. Awan said, the general asked that his accounts be moved from Panama to B.C.C.I. branches in London. ""We thought we would maintain greater confidentiality in London,"" Mr. Awan said. +Mr. Awan, who continued to oversee the general's finances after he was transferred by B.C.C.I. to Washington and Miami, also said that in September 1984 the bank agreed to lend $400,000 to the general to help him buy an apartment in Paris. The loan was paid off in less than six months, mostly by the interest accruing in the general's four main accounts at B.C.C.I., he said. +As a colonel in the Panamanian armed forces in the early 1980's, General Noriega would have earned a salary of about $30,000 a year. Even after he became commander in chief of the Panama Defense Forces in August 1983, he would have been paid an official annual salary of about $50,000. +In questioning Mr. Awan, who is serving a 12-year sentence in a Federal prison for money laundering, Assistant United States Attorney Michael P. Sullivan did not try to link General Noriega's wealth to the cocaine trafficking and money laundering payoffs that witnesses in the trial have said they paid to him. In fact, the jury was provided with no explanation of how General Noriega got the money. +Frank Rubino, the general's chief counsel, suggested in court papers filed before the trial started in September that General Noriega had been paid at least $10 million by United States intelligence agencies and that some of the money found its way into his personal accounts. +After that indictment was handed down in February 1988, Mr. Awan said, General Noriega telephoned him and asked that the British accounts be closed and that the deposits, which at that time amounted to $19.3 million, be transferred back to Panama. Mr. Awan said he convinced General Noriega that he would be better off moving the money to the branch in Luxembourg because that country ""had more banking secrecy"" than Britain. +But six months later, General Noriega and his wife, Felicidad Sieiro de Noriega, moved all their B.C.C.I assets, a total of $23 million, to banks in Zurich and Hamburg, Germany. Shortly thereafter, Mr. Awan said, the money was shifted to a commodities and stock exchange brokerage in London that was run by a friend of the banker, and then to yet another bank." +False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"CNN Allows Transcripts to Be Made Public +The Cable News Network will allow court transcripts of tape recordings of Gen.

Manuel Antonio Noriega privately questioned an important prosecution witness this afternoon to determine whether the witness lied when he testified against the deposed Panamanian leader last fall. +Prosecution and defense lawyers were excluded from the hearing in the chambers of Federal District Judge William M. Hoeveler. The session was ordered after the witness, Gabriel Taboada, a convicted Colombian drug dealer, refused to allow the truthfulness of his testimony to be discussed in open court. +The issue was first raised by the defense lawyer F. Lee Bailey, who had represented Mr. Taboada in a previous drug case, in a letter to prosecutors last month that was made public by the defense on Tuesday. Mr. Bailey and one of his law partners were also questioned in the same closed session. Requested by Witness +The judge agreed to a closed hearing after Mr. Taboada said he was only willing to discuss his dealings with Mr. Bailey if the conversation was held in private. +In a briefing with reporters after court had recessed, the judge promised a ruling on Mr. Taboada's testimony no later than Monday, adding that, at most, he might permit the defense to reopen its case and present evidence to discredit Mr. Taboada. +Testifying as a witness for the prosecution last October, Mr. Taboada said he was present when four leaders of the Medellin cocaine cartel gave General Noriega a $500,000 bribe. But in his letter and in testimony in court here, Mr. Bailey indicated that Mr. Taboada had earlier told him he had no information that could implicate General Noriega in any illegal activities. +General Noriega has been on trial since September on 10 counts of cocaine trafficking, money laundering and racketeering. If convicted on all the charges, he faces more than 140 years in prison. +On the witness stand today, Mr. Taboada initially said he was willing to waive his rights under the attorney-client privilege and allow Mr. Bailey to be questioned in open court. But Mr. Taboada changed his mind after further questioning by Judge Hoeveler and consultation with his current lawyer, John Mattes. +Asked by Judge Hoeveler in open court if he had at any time told Government agents of any dealings with General Noriega, Mr. Taboada said that ""around May 1990 I indicated to the F.B.I. that I knew General Noriega."" But Mr. Taboada made no statement about what he may have said in 1989 when Mr.Bailey represented him in a separate drug case. +Mr. Bailey told Judge Hoeveler that he also wanted to discuss the events that led him to write the letter on Feb. 8 to the lead prosecutor, Michael P. Sullivan. Mr. Bailey's request led the Government to seek permission to sit in on the part of the closed hearing that did not involve attorney-client privilege. Emerging from the session, Mr. Bailey said he would not publicly discuss details until the judge had cleared him to comment. +Mr. Bailey did tell reporters, however, that he had notified ""someone in the Government"" of a potential discrepancy in Mr. Taboada's testimony on Oct. 4. That was several days before the Colombian took the witness stand and said he saw General Noriega and cartel leaders together at a secret meeting in Medellin in the summer of 1983. It was unclear how Mr. Bailey had learned the details of Mr. Taboada's testimony before the witness took the stand. Possible Misconduct +Mr. Bailey's version of events strongly implies misconduct by the Government. ""I took immediate action, and nothing happened,"" Mr. Bailey said before the hearing had started. Judge Hoeveler said later that while Mr. Bailey had telephoned someone in the judge's office, the lawyer ""never spoke to anyone of authority."" +In today's open session, Judge Hoeveler also interviewed all 13 jurors and alternates to determine if they had heard of the arrest here on shoplifting charges of Felicidad Sieiro de Noriega, the general's wife. All but one juror said they knew of the incident, which dominated the headlines here today.

Manuel Antonio Noriega told the judge today that serious differences had developed among them in three days of deliberations, and he responded to their request for guidance by telling them that a mistrial on some counts was an option. +That exchange between the jurors and Judge William M. Hoeveler came after the jury's foreman, Lester C. Spencer, sent a note asking the judge to answer two questions. +Mr. Spencer first asked whether all 12 jurors ""must agree on each count listed in this indictment"" in order to return a guilty verdict, and then wanted to know what options ""other than returning a verdict of not guilty"" the jury could turn to ""if we can't agree."" +Mr. Spencer later amplified his concerns during a jury conference with Judge Hoeveler in open court this afternoon. His fellow jurors, who during pauses earlier in the trial had often teased and conversed among themselves, sat quietly and somewhat uneasily as he sought guidance on how to end the divisions that he said had emerged among them. 'Debating and Debating' +""If we deliberate for days and days and days and we do not reach a unanimous verdict on a count,"" what course of action is the jury allowed to take? Mr. Spencer asked. ""We've been debating and debating."" +Judge Hoeveler told the jury that it was not obligated to find General Noriega guilty or not guilty on all the counts, or even on any of them. Any combination of guilty, not guilty and deadlock verdicts is acceptable under the law, he said. +""If you can't agree on any particular count,"" he said, ""you can't agree on it. We will declare a mistrial on that count."" +Later Judge Hoeveler went into the jury room to talk briefly with the jurors. When he returned, he said that Mr. Spencer had indicated that the jury had another question, which will be submitted in writing on Wednesday morning, and that at the jury's request he had also agreed to put his own supplementary instructions in writing. +General Noriega, who was deposed as Panama's military ruler by American forces that invaded his country in December 1989, is charged with 10 counts of cocaine trafficking, money laundering and racketeering. If convicted of all charges, he could be sentenced to as much as 160 years in prison. +Judge Hoeveler and the lawyers on both sides of the case appeared uneasy at the notion that the jury might be unable to come to a verdict on even one of the counts. With the jurors out of the courtroom, General Noriega's chief counsel, Frank A. Rubino, told the judge, ""I wouldn't encourage them to come back hung."" +Judge Hoeveler said, ""I would like to tell them they cannot"" return without verdicts, but there ""must be an honest answer"" to their questions. +Lawyers not connected with the Noriega case said Judge Hoeveler still had many ways available to him to nudge the jury toward verdicts. In particular, they mentioned the ""dynamite charge,"" a supplemental jury instruction that, in its mildest form, reminds the jurors of the importance of reaching a verdict and asks each of them to reconsider individual positions to make sure they are not unreasonable. Retrial Is Possible +If the jury is unable to reach a verdict on a given charge, the Government will have the right to try General Noriega again on that count. But Judge Hoeveler will do everything within his power to avoid that outcome, said lawyers not connected to the case. +This afternoon's exchange followed a request in which the jurors sought permission to examine transcripts of testimony by 10 prosecution witnesses. Usually jurors are expected to rely on their memory and notes in their deliberations. But in granting their request today, Judge Hoeveler made clear that he thought the complexity of the Noriega trial, which began in September and has generated about 17,000 pages of testimony, required an exception to that practice. +""After six months, we can't say, 'You're on your own, we're not going to help you,' "" the judge said.

Manuel Antonio Noriega, as the defense sought, for the most part unsuccessfully, to introduce evidence supporting General Noriega's contention that he regularly performed secret missions on behalf of the Central Intelligence Agency and its allies. +Among the items rejected by Judge William M. Hoeveler was a photograph taken at a December 1983 meeting in Panama between General Noriega and George Bush, who was then Vice President. The prosecution also blocked efforts by General Noriega's lawyers to question a former miltary aide of General Noriega about ties between the Panamanian military and Israel and about American involvement in Panama's 1984 presidential election. +The restrictions are a major setback for General Noriega, who went on trial at the Federal Courthouse here earlier this month on 10 counts of cocaine trafficking, racketeering and money laundering and faces a sentence of up to 140 years if convicted on all the charges. The defense has not yet presented its case, but General Noriega's lawyer, Frank A. Rubino, argued in pretrial hearings that while General Noriega may have allowed his country to be used as a drug and arms trafficking center, he did so only at the behest of the United States Government. +The admissibility and relevance of matters relating to national security was an area of conflict throughout the 18 months of hearings and other judicial proceedings that preceded the trial of General Noriega, who surrendered after the American invasion of Panama on Dec. 20, 1989. +But it has become a central issue in the trial only in the testimony of Lieut. Col. Luis del Cid, a Panamanian military officer who describes himself as ""General Noriega's errand boy"" and bodyguard. Military Training by Israel +Under questioning by Assistant United States Attorney Myles Malman last week, Colonel del Cid spoke in detail of the close relationship between the Panamanian military and Israel, acknowledging that he and other Panamanian officers were sent to Israel for special training by Israeli military and security forces. On Monday, Colonel del Cid also identified Mike Harari, an Israeli intelligence operative, as one of General Noriega's intimates. +But when Mr. Rubino sought today to question Colonel del Cid about services the Panamanian military may have peformed for Israel, prosecutors objected, and Mr. Rubino changed direction after a conference with the judge. Mr. Rubino also was forced to abandon questions about the training General Noriega received from the C.I.A. +Prosecutors also stopped Mr. Rubino from offering the photograph of Mr. Bush and General Noriega and from questioning Colonel del Cid about the Reagan Administration's backing of General Noriega's hand-picked presidential candidate in Panama's 1984 election. On both occasions, Judge Hoeveler and lawyers moved to the side of the courtroom farthest from the jury and spectators and turned on a ""white noise"" machine that masked their conversation. +Judge Hoeveler did not refer in the presence of the jury or the news media to any specific ruling he had made limiting the defense's ability to question the witness about espionage or other aspects of national security. But prosecutors cited a ruling the judge made before the morning session in their objections to some of Mr. Rubino's questions. And Mr. Rubino himself abandoned several areas of inquiry after conferring with the judge and prosecutors out of earshot of the jury. +By mid-afternoon, Mr. Rubino was visibly frustrated, shaking his head at some of Colonel del Cid's answers and firing off sarcastic one-liners that drew laughter from spectators and smiles from some jurors. That led Judge Hoeveler to admonish him not to ask certain questions and to avoid entire areas of inquiry. +""Please don't argue with me,"" Judge Hoeveler said to Mr. Rubino after the defense lawyer tried unsuccessfully to ask Colonel del Cid about Mr. Harari's links to Mossad, the Israeli intelligence agency. United States officials say Mr. Harari, who left Mossad in 1980, set himself up as an arms dealer in Central America, becoming one of General Noriega's most trusted advisers. +A committee representing reporters covering the trial today requested a copy of the transcripts of the conversations Judge Hoeveler has held with defense and prosecution outside the jury's hearing. Such discussions are part of the trial record, but court officials said the transcripts would have to be sent to Washington to be reviewed by Justice Department officials for classified national security material before their possible release. +In the pretrial hearings, some documents submitted to that process were released, often with heavy deletions, only after delays of up to five months." +False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"U.S. Praises 30-Nation Anti-Drug Effort +LEAD: Attorney General Dick Thornburgh today announced the completion of a campaign to seize drugs that involved agencies from 30 nations, including Panama, whose de facto leader is under indictment in the United States on charges of narcotics smuggling. +Attorney General Dick Thornburgh today announced the completion of a campaign to seize drugs that involved agencies from 30 nations, including Panama, whose de facto leader is under indictment in the United States on charges of narcotics smuggling. +At his first formal news conference as Attorney General, Mr. Thornburgh said the monthlong drug operation that ended Sunday was the first time so many nations had cooperated in battling drug-trafficking. +The Justice Department's figures did not show whether the 1,200 arrests, seizure of 11 tons of cocaine and destruction of 244 tons of marijuana in the operation were more significant than would have been expected under regular enforcement activities. Political Motive Denied +In response to questions about Panama, Mr. Thornburgh repeatedly denied that the value of the operation had been undermined by the involvement of the regime of Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega. The Panamanian leader is under indictment in Miami on charges that he assisted in the transport of Colombian cocaine to the United States. +The Attorney General also rejected any suggestion that the news conference was intended to assist Vice President Bush in the Presidential campaign, in which Federal drug policy has been a central issue. +Asked what role politics had played in today's announcement, Mr. Thornburgh replied: 'None. Drug abuse and a crackdown on smuggling have been a continuing concern of this Administration, and this represents another interval along the way in making that effort more effective.' +'I don't think you're going to find anybody running up the flag of success today,' he added. 'But what we are suggesting is that this cooperative effort, which is a first of its kind, is an important milestone toward the achievement of that success.' European Nations Joined In +The project was conducted under the auspices of the International Drug Enforcement Conference, a five-year-old organization made up of the United States, Canada and Mexico and the other nations of Latin America. Agencies from most of the governments of Western Europe also participated. +In joint operations that began Aug. 1, the 30 nations intensified border searches, increased patrols of highways and rivers used for illicit drug shipments and stepped up raids on drug laboratories. +According to the Justice Department, the operation, which was directed primarily at smuggling operations in Central and South America, led to the demolition of 13 cocaine laboratories and seven clandestine airstrips and the seizure of nearly $4 million in cash. +In Florida, Arizona and Texas, about 100 National Guardsmen helped to inspect more than 6,000 vehicles, leading to the seizure of large quanitites of marijuana. +Perhaps because of the lack of data comparing the project's results to what might have been expected in routine efforts, Mr. Thornburgh and other officials played down the figures. 'Signal to Drug Kingpins' +'The statistics are not as important as the signal that has been sent to the drug kingpins,' the Attorney General said. 'Henceforth, they will increasingly face the combined fury of law-enforcement agencies of all nations whose people they victimize.' +Under repeated questioning about Panama, Mr. Thornburgh was placed in the awkward position of defending a program in which the United States cooperated with a nation whose leader, General Noriega, has been identified by the Justice Department as a major narcotics trafficker. +The Attorney General said the United States did not share intelligence information with General Noriega or his associates. 'There was no direct activity between the United States law-enforcement officials and any Panamanians,' he said. +Officials said Panama cooperated in border operations with Costa Rica. Panama Off Drug List +Mr. Thornburgh's announcement of the operation came as the State Department released a semiannual report to Congress on foreign narcotics corruption that, despite the indictment of General Noriega, did not list Panama as a nation whose senior officials are involved in narcotics trafficking. The State Department said it did not include Panama because the United States recognizes the ousted President, Eric Arturo Delvalle, as Panama's leader. +Representative Charles B. Rangel, a New York Democrat who is chairman of the House Select Committee on Narcotics, described the report's conclusions on Panama as sophistry. 'Everybody knows that Noriega is running the country,' Mr. Rangel said in a prepared statement. 'Why is our Government using this subterfuge?' +Some of harshest language in the report accused the Government of Laos of promoting drug trafficking 'as a matter of policy.' It said Laotian leaders were directly involved in the processing of opium and marijuana, including at least four Government-sanctioned heroin laboratories. +The State Department said no sanctions had been sought against Laos because it had assisted the United States in searching for the remains of American soldiers killed in the Vietnam War." +False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Letter on Witness's Veracity Rattles Noriega Trial +The trial of Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega was thrown into confusion today after defense lawyers presented a letter that appeared to question the credibility of a witness who had told of seeing the former Panamanian leader accept a bribe from drug traffickers. +Mr. Noriega's defense team told Judge William M. Hoeveler that F. Lee Bailey, the criminal defense lawyer, had sent them a letter telling of a possible inconsistency between the testimony of the witness, Gabriel Taboada, last October and a statement made to him as Mr. Taboada's lawyer in another case. +Mr. Bailey is not involved in the trial of Mr. Noriega on 10 counts of cocaine trafficking, money laundering and racketeering. Testimony Considered Crucial +The testimony by Mr. Taboada, a convicted Colombian drug dealer, is considered crucial to the prosecution because he is the only sworn witness who has said that he actually watched as the general was given a bribe by the leaders of the Medellin drug cartel. +Other witnesses have testified about meetings between General Noriega and cartel leaders or have said they were involved as intermediaries in the payment of bribes to Mr. Noriega. +In the letter, which was made public in Federal District Court here today, Mr. Bailey said that at various times he had represented Mr. Taboada and General Noriega. Mr. Bailey said that when he asked Mr. Taboada, in connection with a 1989 drug case in South Carolina, if he knew anything about the general that would create ""an ethical conflict on my part,"" Mr. Taboada gave him assurances that led him to believe he did not. +But in October, Mr. Taboada, testifying as a prosecution witness, said he saw the four top leaders of the Medellin cocaine cartel hand a briefcase stuffed with cash to General Noriega. He said he presumed that the valise contained $500,000 based on what he had seen and heard during the incident, which took place in Colombia just before the general took control of the Panamanian military in August 1983. +Addressing lawyers in the case today, Judge Hoeveler called the disclosure ""strange and interesting."" Defense lawyers immediately asked that Mr. Bailey be called, and Judge Hoeveler agreed, setting a hearing for Wednesday. 'Surprised' After Testimony +Mr. Bailey wrote to prosecutors in the Noriega case in February and also told them in a telephone conversation of the apparent discrepancy between Mr. Taboada's testimony and what he recalled Mr. Taboada as telling him earlier. +""Bailey said he was surprised that Taboada had information about this Noriega meeting in Medellin,"" the chief prosecutor, Michael P. Sullivan, told Judge Hoeveler today. ""He said he didn't know anything about that."" +Mr. Bailey telephoned the defense on March 13, and a week later sent to defense lawyers a copy of the letter he had sent to the prosecutors, the chief defense counsel, Frank A. Rubino, told Judge Hoeveler today. +Mr. Sullivan said that the Government had investigated whether ""there might have been prior inconsistent statements,"" and that it had determined there was no evidence of discrepancies. +Judge Hoeveler also ruled today that defense lawyers would be allowed a limited rebuttal of the Government's rebuttal, which is in its third week. He said that Mr. Rubino would be allowed to call one witness to provide an alibi for General Noriega when a Government rebuttal witness said Mr. Noriega was meeting with a cartel leader in Panama early in May 1984. +The prosecution witness, Felipe Pena, who is a former chauffeur for the Noriega family, testified earlier this month that he drove the cartel leader, Julio Cesar Correa, to a meeting with General Noriega and other Panamanian military officials at one of the General's homes. Defense lawyers protested that if allowed they could present a witness to account for the general's whereabouts on the weekend that the meeting was said to have occurred. +Also today, the police said Felicidad Sieiro de Noriega, the general's wife, was arrested and jailed for several hours over the weekend on a charge of theft. A police spokesman said Mrs. Noriega, who has been attending her husband's trial, and a friend were detained outside a Burdine's department store in a Miami suburb by store security guards on Friday. +The police said the women were arrested after being seen removing buttons valued at $305 from clothing in the store.

Manuel Antonio Noriega was sentenced today to 20 years in prison for his part in a guns-for-cocaine scheme. +The 47-year-old defendant, William Saldarriaga, a Colombian businessman, was convicted in March of conspiring with General Noriega to trade M-16 rifles from Panama to Colombian drug dealers for cocaine, which they then planned to smuggle into the United States. The plan unraveled when the Colombian authorities seized the cocaine. +The case was part of a broader indictment against General Noriega that accuses the ousted Panamanian leader of providing a safe haven in Panama to Colombian drug traffickers in exchange for money. +Mr. Saldarriaga stood alone before Judge William Hoeveler today because a man convicted with him, Brian Davidow, 29, agreed on Thursday to cooperate with prosecutors in the Noriega case. +Mr. Davidow, who like Mr. Saldarriaga had faced up to 40 years in prison, agreed to cooperate as part of a plea bargain that involves drug charges in another case as well, said his lawyer, Richard Sharpstein. +Mr. Sharpstein said that under terms of the bargain, Mr. Davidow would plead guilty, probably next week, to one of two counts in the second case, which also involves cocaine smuggling.

Manuel Antonio Noriega had worked undercover for the Government during the inquiry. +The prosecutors said that as part of the investigation Federal and state law-enforcement agents had posed as criminal defendants and that payoffs had been made to get their bail lowered, have evidence suppressed and gain confidential information. +People familiar with the case said the lawyer for General Noriega, Raymond Takiff, had been involved in the corruption and had begun working for the Goverment as an informer even while still representing the general. +Claiming health problems, Mr. Takiff left General Noriega's defense team shortly after the United States invaded Panama at the end of 1989. The invasion occurred two years after the general, then Panama's ruler, had been indicted on drug-trafficking charges by two Federal grand juries, and it resulted in his surrender to American forces in his country in January 1990. +One official said today that in a sealed agreement on Nov. 20, 1989, Mr. Takiff admitted income tax violations and other illegal activities. This official indicated that Mr. Takiff's involvement in the wrongdoing included serving as an intermediary between defendants and corrupt judges, and added, ""It was all about money, which he was paying."" It is unclear whether Mr. Takiff continued in the role of intermediary later for law-enforcement agents posing as defendants. +Prosecutors and one of General Noriega's current lawyers said today that they believed that Mr. Takiff's assistance to the Government would have no effect on the general's trial, now scheduled for Sept. 3. +The judicial corruption inquiry was first disclosed this morning at a news conference in Miami, where United States Attorney Dexter W. Lehtinen and the State Attorney for Dade County, Janet Reno, said they were announcing it because court-authorized searches were being conducted today at various locations, including the homes and chambers of ""several"" state judges. No 'Privileged Information' +A statement issued by the two prosecutors said, ""The United States Government never sought and never obtained privileged information regarding any criminal defendants who have been Mr. Takiff's clients, including Gen. Manuel Noriega."" +The prosecutors said that the Federal judge hearing General Noriega's case, William M. Hoeveler, had been informed of Mr. Takiff's role since January 1990, when the general, in American custody, was brought to the United States. +One of General Noriega's lawyers, Jon May, said the news of Mr. Takiff's cooperation with the Government had come as a ""total shock"" to him and his co-counsel, Frank A. Rubino. But Mr. May said Mr. Takiff had had no involvement in the preparation of General Noriega's defense, and added, ""The Government has given us assurances that no attorney-client confidences have been violated by Mr. Takiff, and we have absolutely no reason to doubt that that's true."" +Court documents filed by Mr. Lehtinen this week identify four judges whose homes and chambers were being searched today. They are Roy T. Gelber, Harvey N. Shenberg, Phillip Davis and Alfonso C. Sepe. None could be reached for comment. Nor could David Goodhart, a Fort Lauderdale defense lawyer whose office and home were also being searched. +Telephone calls to Mr. Takiff's office seeking comment were not returned. +It is unclear how many judges in all are targets of the inquiry. Diane Cossin, a spokeswoman for Mr. Lehtinen, described the case only as ""enormous."" +Mr. Lehtinen and Ms. Reno said fictitious cases had been put before ""a number"" of state judges, with Federal and state agents posing as defendants.

Williams Regala, who is both the Minister of Interior and Defense, and his liaison officer to the Drug Enforcement Administration, two Haitians testified. +'Our intelligence indicates that major Colombian trafficking organizations are using Haiti as a base of operations,' Tom Cash, heads of the drug agency in Miami, told Senators Alfonse M.

Jean-Claude Paul of Haiti in March for allegedly flying cocaine into Florida was continuing, but refused to say if higher Haitian officials were implicated. +Other witnesses said the army took in the secret police, the Tonton Macoute, after the overthrow of Jean-Claude Duvalier, the Haitian ruler, in 1986, and that soldiers and secret police now trafficked drugs in both Haiti and the United States. +Roger Biamby, director of the Haitian American Community Association of Dade, testified that the Haitian liaison to the drug agency's new office in Port-au-Prince was a drug dealer who personally supervised cocaine loading operations on one freighter bound for the United States.

Efforts to reach the office spokeswoman, Diane B. Cossin, were unavailing tonight; her home telephone number has been temporarily disconnected. +To deny bail, the prosecution has to argue that General Noriega would be a danger to the community and would be at risk of fleeing the country. +In an interview last week, Mr. Kollin said the defense would not immediately seek bail because he did not think a defendant as well known and well connected as General Noriega had much chance of getting it.

A second-half letdown leads to an opponent's goal. Then a furious recovery near the end salvages a tie on the road. +On Wednesday night, on a dimly lit and soggy field that essentially created a bass pond in front of Panama's goal in the second half, the United States fell behind, 1-0, in the 70th minute. Panama, the country that developed the hands of Roberto Duran and the arm of Mariano Rivera, appeared on the verge of scoring a great triumph with its collective feet. +The Panamanian forwards put great pressure on the Americans, who were routinely outplayed in the second half, even bullied at times, according to goalkeeper Kasey Keller. +But, fortunately for the Americans, resolve lately has helped to mask inconsistency. +In the 92nd minute, a long pass from Greg Vanney was played into the penalty area and was deflected to the feet of Landon Donovan, who attempted a shot in the watery mess, but instead the ball squibbed to Cobi Jones. He trapped the ball and slid it under the Panamanian goalkeeper from about eight yards, and the United States had stolen a 1-1 draw to remain undefeated in this semifinal qualifying round. +Last month in Jamaica, Brian Ching delivered another late goal, this one in the 89th minute, to retrieve a 1-1 tie for the Americans. Nine times this year, the United States delivered a goal after the 75th minute. Five times, the Americans won or tied a game with a goal after the 87th minute. +'Give the U.S. team credit for passing the character test,' Coach Bruce Arena said. But he was not entirely pleased, knowing they had three chances perhaps to put the game away in the first half, but could not score on a Clint Mathis breakaway, a corner kick that Ching skidded just beyond the goal and a chip pass from Mathis that Carlos Bocanegra struck weakly in front of the goal. +Still, the United States, ranked 10th in the world, is undefeated in its last 10 matches and is first in its group with a 1-0-2 record in this round of qualifying for the 2006 World Cup. +The Americans play next on Oct. 9 against El Salvador in San Salvador. +How to account for these late-game emotional rescues? Determination, depth, professional fitness and Arena's knack for pushing the right buttons. Jones and Ching were second-half substitutes who delivered huge goals. +'That's a credit to this team, that we are as deep as we are,' Keller said. 'As we go later, we can bring people on that can make a difference.' +Qualifying games on the road in the North American, Central American and Caribbean region -- invariably played in harsh conditions -- become difficult if early chances are missed, Donovan said. Except for Honduras, the United States has never won a qualifying match in Central America, going 0-5-6. +'That's why you play the whole game, not 89 minutes, not 87 minutes, not 90 minutes,' Donovan said. 'You play until it's done. And we don't give up.' +Jones, a veteran of 163 appearances who has been a reliable second-half presence during qualifying, said he found something in the national character about the way the United States has played lately. +'I think it stems from our society, a national attitude, just never say die,' Jones said. 'So we're a team that's never going to quit.' +Keller said that the Americans need to learn to sustain their aggressiveness on the road. Yet, they remain in an encouraging spot, atop the group with two of their final three games at home in the qualifying round. +'You draw games on the road and win at home and you qualify for the World Cup easily,' Keller said.

He added that the department would try to insure that reporters are able to cover the start of any future conflicts. +At the same time Mr. Williams tried to insulate Defense Secretary Dick Cheney from blame, saying Mr. Cheney's decision to delay calling up the news media pool was correct under the circumstances. +The spokesman's assurances came after the release of a report by Fred S. Hoffman, a former deputy spokesman for the Defense Department. The report, which was commissioned by the department, faulted Secretary Cheney, Mr. Williams and some public affairs officials in Panama. +'Because of a secrecy-driven decision by Defense Secretary Dick Cheney, the pool was called out too late to cover the decisive U.S. assaults in the brief war,' Mr. Hoffman said in his report. 'Military leaders played no part in shaping that decision.' +The Hoffman report outlined 17 recommendations, including a proposal that all war plans drafted by the Joint Chiefs of Staff have an annex 'spelling out measures to insure that the pool will move with the lead elements of U.S. forces and cover the earliest stages of operations.' +Suggestions to Be Considered +Mr. Williams said the recommendations would be considered, but did not say whether they would be adopted. +In response to a question, he said the Defense Department had not yet determined which Pentagon official would have the main responsiblity for developing plans for news media coverage of military operations. 'I'm responsible for reviewing the plans once I know about them,' Mr. Williams said, adding that the matter had to be worked out with the Joint Chiefs. +The spokesman also said that the Pentagon agreed in principle with a number of other recommendations by Mr. Hoffman, including a suggestion that the chairman of the Joint Chiefs order commanders to make resources like helicopters available to reporters so that they will have 'ready access to the earliest action.' +In addition, Mr. Williams said the Pentagon was in basic agreement with Mr. Hoffman's suggestion that the news media pool be periodically called up and sent on military exercises involving airborne and other units most likely to see combat. +Another suggestion with which the Pentagon agreed in principle, the spokesman said, was a proposal that the Defense Secretary issue a policy directive that the military give its full support to the pool reporters. +Mr. Hoffman's report said lower military officials in the Panama invasion sometimes refused to cooperate with the pool. He said reporters were initially denied access to a detention area for Panamanian prisoners and were barred from taking photographs of damaged helicopters or of coffins of American servicemen killed in action." +False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,"The Noriega Case: Defense Strategy; Noriega and Lawyers Meet for 2 Hours +LEAD: Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega today plotted strategy with defense lawyers amid questions about the future of the defense team itself. +Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega today plotted strategy with defense lawyers amid questions about the future of the defense team itself. +After conferring with General Noriega for more than two hours under heavy security in the courthouse here, the lawyers disclosed few details about the conversation. But one of the lawyers, Steven Kollin, said the defense would argue that the General was illegally brought to this country as a political prisoner after being pressured to surrender on Wednesday. +'The general became concerned genuinely about people, the papal nuncio, the nuns and the staff, and his own personal safety,' Mr. Kollin said. 'He had no choice but to surrender.' +'No Choice But Surrender' +Mr. Kollin said arguments over General Noriega's surrender were one of many legal motions the defense would make and which could delay the trial for months. +The lawyers would not say much about General Noriega's spirits, except to quell rumors that he was disoriented after his surrender Wednesday in Panama and his court appearance here Thursday, when he was formally charged in a drug trafficking case. 'I'd say he's tired,' Mr. Kollin said, 'but I wouldn't say he's bewildered by far.' +The other defense lawyer, Frank A. Rubino, added: 'His demeanor is fine. He's cheerful and relaxed.' The authorities said General Noriega had been isolated overnight in a cramped basement cell. +While the defense strategy remained uncertain, President Bush said in Washington today that he believed the 'case is strong' and that prosecutors would not negotiate a plea bargain with General Noriega. +As the first foreign leader who has been brought to this country for trial on drug-trafficking charges after being toppled by the United States military, General Noriega was the talk of this city. Possibly preparing to airlift the general out of state, large military helicopters swooped around Miami all day. Mayor Xavier Suarez suggested that the case would become something of a cottage industry, telling a radio reporter, 'Miami has a great stake in the outcome of this trial.' +Case Is Called Weak +General Noriega's lawyers insisted that the Government case was weak, and cited numerous legal courses they could pursue, including the argument that it was impossible for the general to get a fair trial in Miami. +But asked if such a deal was out of the question, David Runkel, the chief spokesman for the Justice Department, was not as absolute. He said, 'As in any case, if a defendant has something to say, we have an obligation to listen.' +Despite the legal options, the defense appeared to be in disarray. Neal R. Sonnett, a nationally known defense lawyer, removed himself from the case last week, citing disagreements with the other lawyers. Another lawyer, Raymond Takiff, suffered two recent heart attacks and is no longer active in the defense, Mr. Rubino said. That left Mr. Rubino and Mr. Kollin, who specialize in drug cases but are solo practitioners who, legal specialists say, could find themselves outnumbered by a team of a half-dozen Federal prosecutors. +'They'll be overwhelmed if they try to do it alone,' said Theodore Klein, a leading defense lawyer here and a past president of the Florida Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers. 'This is such a specialized area that I don't think they can handle it without the help of some top-notch attorneys with Federal experience.' +Roger I. Abrams, dean of the Nova University Shepard Broad Law Center in Fort Lauderdale, said he, like Mr. Sonnett, was concerned that the other defense lawyers were too outspoken to the press. 'I have no reason to doubt their competence in the courtroom,' said Mr. Abrams, a member of the Florida Bar's Standing Committee on Professionalism. 'I can question how they conduct themselves out of the courtroom.' +'An Ethical Obligation' +It was by no means clear today that General Noriega would retain his current lawyers. Mr. Sonnett, president of the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, said in an interview that he met with the general for an hour on Thursday. +'I thought I had an ethical obligation to talk to him face to face,' Mr. Sonnett said, 'and explained why I pulled out of the case. I did not go over to solicit the case.' +But Mr. Sonnett said he did not close the door on taking the case, which he described as 'at the pinnacle of cases involving new and important legal issues.' He also said, 'This is not a case that I find intimidating at all. I'd be delighted to defend it in court.' +Mr. Sonnett said he was also told today that representatives of General Noriega had approached Barry I. Slotnick, a New York lawyer best known for representing Bernhard Goetz, who went to prison after shooting four men he thought were going to rob him on the subway. Mr. Slotnick has in the past represented at least one defendant linked to General Noriega. +In an interview, Mr. Rubino said he believed that he and Mr. Kollin were capable of handling the case, though he did not rule out expanding the legal team. Despite his client's notoriety, he said, the case was in many ways similar to others he had handled. +'It's still basically a Federal criminal case,' Mr. Rubino said. +Prosecutors here remained tight-lipped about the case, and Mr. Runkel, the Justice spokesman, said Federal officials were 'reviewing the evidence, going over documents which may be subject to discovery, preparing our legal argument.' +Although General Noriega would face a trial here first, Federal authorities held open the possibility that he would also be taken to Tampa to be formally charged on a separate drug trafficking indictment. But Mr. Kollin said, 'We don't think they're going to move him in the immediate future.' +Since the defense lawyers have declined to seek bail at this time, it was not clear when the next court proceeding would occur. The defense lawyers have not explained why they did not seek bail, but Jose M. Quinon, a well-known defense lawyer here, suggested that such an action would be 'admitting that the court has jurisdiction' in the case. +As the legal maneuvering continued, a Federal magistrate here ordered Daniel Miranda, who is accused of being a pilot for General Noriega, to be held without bond in pretrial detention.

Manuel Antonio Noriega to the export of drugs to the United States, a Panamanian diplomat and airline owner said this week that he and the ousted military strongman of Panama shipped tons of cocaine to Florida as part of a lucrative business arrangement with the Medellin cartel. +The diplomat, Ricardo Bilonick, an American-educated lawyer who in August surrendered to Federal authorities and pleaded guilty to drug trafficking charges, said he and leaders of the Colombian ring jointly bought a small airline called Inair, which was used to fly cocaine shipments of 1,000 pounds or more from an airport in the Panamanian capital to Florida. +He agreed to the scheme, he said, only after being assured that ""we have the protection of Panama and Noriega."" +Shortly after Mr. Bilonick was called to the witness stand on Thursday, Assistant United States Attorney Myles Malman asked him if he had ever flown cocaine in conjunction with anyone who was in the courtroom. Mr. Bilonick then pointed to the defense table, where General Noriega sat, wearing a dark leather flight jacket and an expression of indifference. +""Yes, I did it with General Manuel Antonio Noriega,"" he replied. A Central Contention +Mr. Bilonick's testimony is essential to the prosecution's case because he is the first witness to link General Noriega directly to shipments of cocaine from Panama to the United States. That contention is central to the 10-count indictment on which the General, who surrendered to United States military forces after the American invasion of Panama in December 1989, is being tried here. +Previous witnesses have testified that the general approved and was paid for a variety of other activities that are part of the cocaine trade: the purchase of chemicals like ether and acetone that are used to refine the drug, the shipment of cocaine from Colombia to Panama and the disguising of drug profits. But without solid proof that General Noriega was also involved in shipping cocaine to the United States, it would be more difficult for the prosecution to obtain a conviction on at least some of the charges. +Mr. Bilonick is scheduled to return to the witness stand on Monday. According to transcripts of conferences between Federal District Judge William M. Hoeveler and lawyers in the case, he will testify that his airline made 19 drug flights to Miami and Fort Lauderdale, bringing at least 15 tons of cocaine into the United States over two years in the early 1980's. +Mr. Bilonick was an adviser to Gen. Omar Torrijos, the Panamanian leader who was killed in a plane crash in 1981, at the time the Panama Canal treaty was being negotiated with the United States. Mr. Bilonick was later appointed ""ambassador at large"" with special responsibilites for relations with the United States. He testified that he first came in contact with leaders of the Medellin cartel in August 1981. At a meeting with one of the leaders, Jorge Ochoa, Mr. Bilonick said, he was invited to be the group's Panamanian partner in a operation to conceal the source of money that eventually handled as much as $60 million a week. +In that first meeting, Mr. Bilonick recalled this week, Mr. Ochoa was told by an employee that one of his planes had just gone down in the Caribbean Sea with $1.5 million on board. +""He had no reaction,"" Mr. Bilonick said of Mr. Ochoa. ""He didn't even blink. He said, 'That's a nice shirt you're wearing. Did you buy it at Burdine's?' "" +When the employee replied that the shirt had indeed come from the Florida department store, Mr. Ochoa said, ""You'll have to get me a couple like that the next time you go up to Miami."" 'I Don't Need to Get Paid' +Mr. Bilonick said Mr. Ochoa later lent him $1.5 million to help buy Inair, but then transferred the debt to Pablo Escobar, head of another drug-smuggling group that is part of the cartel. When Mr. Bilonick went to Mr. Escobar with an offer of repayment, he was rebuffed and was told that the cartel wanted to use Inair to transport cocaine from Panama to the United States. +Mr. Bilonick recalled Mr. Escobar saying: ""I don't want to get paid. I don't need to get paid. We have an arrangement to work Panama with Noriega."" +In conversations with Mr. Ochoa and Mr. Escobar, Mr. Bilonick said he learned that the ring's leaders ""had struck a deal with Noriega"" late in 1981, when Mr. Ochoa's sister was kidnapped by Colombian guerrillas and General Noriega agreed to serve as a mediator in obtaining her freedom. +Mr. Bilonick said he was told that the cartel's agreement with General Noriega involved ""free landing, free passage, and free transshipment"" of Colombian aircraft and cocaine cargoes through Panama on their way to the United States. It also meant that ""payments had to be made"" on a regular basis to the general, who at the time was head of Panamanian military intelligence." +False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,"THE 1992 CAMPAIGN: The Independent; Perot Assails the President On Foreign and U.S. Issues +Ross Perot kicked off the only extensive trip of his campaign today with a blistering critique of President Bush, charging him with ignoring the savings and loan crisis, permitting the rise of Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega and propping up President Saddam Hussein in Iraq. +Mr. Perot had harsh words for Gov. Bill Clinton as well, ridiculing the notion that his leadership in Arkansas had prepared him for the White House. But he made Mr. Bush his primary target. And while Mr. Perot continued to assert that he would defy the polls and win the election Tuesday, he seemed equally interested in making sure that Mr. Bush did not. Among the concerns of the Clinton campaign is that Mr. Perot will siphon off enough of the ""change vote"" to allow Mr. Bush to win a narrow victory. +Mr. Perot made it clear that he was not amused by Mr. Bush's use of the word ""crazy"" this week to characterize Mr. Perot's accusations of a Republican plot to embarrass his daughter. +""George Bush is on the circuit all day, every day,"" Mr. Perot told about 8,000 people in the Sun Dome on the campus of the University of South Florida. ""Says if you vote for Perot you're wasting your vote. Now that's the same man that every time he opened his mouth two weeks ago said, 'I agree with Ross.' And that's the same man that was praising my leadership and character a month ago that's now telling you that I'm crazy and anybody that supports me is crazy, too. Point is, we've got a lot of crazies out there, hadn't we?"" 'Soaking Up PAC Money' +His listeners, almost universally attired in Perot T-shirts, stomped and roared in approval, as they did repeatedly throughout the hourlong speech. Mr. Perot's main assault on Mr. Bush was long and rambling. But it made his point. He began by accusing Mr. Bush of knowing that the banking industry was in trouble while he was Vice President. ""You sat there doing nothing until after you had been elected President in 1988, soaking up every piece of PAC money you could get from those crooks,"" he said. +He continued by blaming Mr. Bush, while Vice President, for losing control of Mr. Noriega in Panama and then having ""to send down American troops to fight and die to take him out."" He also said the White House had spent ""billions of dollars in yours and mine hard earned money to create Saddam Hussein."" +""Now then, he's a good man and he's a decent man,"" Mr. Perot said of Mr. Bush, ""but all he knows is politics and he doesn't know how to create jobs or manage money, and those are our problems."" +Regarding Mr. Clinton, Mr. Perot asked: ""Have you heard Governor Clinton night after night on television tell you about that we can fix every problem in this country the way he fixed the problems in Arkansas? 'Now here's the way we did it in Arkansas. One, two, three, four, five.' And everybody says, 'Whoo, wow, right?' "" Look of Real Campaign +For the first time since he rejoined the race on Oct. 1, Mr. Perot's day had the look and feel of a real campaign. The sound and lighting at the rally were professional. Perot supporters found red, white and blue placards waiting on their chairs, along with tiny American flags. +There was no Lawrence Welk music, of course, but the Bill Norman group warmed up the crowd with some country, jazz and rock and roll. It played ""The Yellow Rose of Texas"" more than once, apparently unaware that Mr. Perot had been labeled ""The Yellow Ross of Texas"" after he withdrew from the race in July. +Mr. Perot, who has campaigned primarily by television, was trailed by what he likes to call ""a motor cavalcade"" of three press buses. His campaign arranged for a press plane for the first time. Reporters wore press credentials, produced by a Time magazine photographer, describing the trip as ""the two-minute drill tour,"" a reference to the football term used by Mr. Perot to describe his last-minute sprint to the goal line. +In perhaps the surest sign that he had arrived, Mr. Perot was heckled by an AIDS demonstrator, who interrupted him mid-speech with screams of ""What about AIDS?"" Mr. Perot took the opportunity to call for faster approval of experimental drugs by the Food and Drug Administration. +As with other recent speeches, Mr. Perot's address was only secondarily about the country's need to make the difficult choices needed to eliminate its indebtedness. Its main purpose was to decry the corruption of American government, and to present himself as the antidote to packaged politics. Favorite Anecdotes +Like any country politician worth his salt, Mr. Perot used favorite anecdotes like a newly sharpened Buck knife, particularly when describing preparations for Presidential debates. +""You got your stray dog that nobody's sure has ever been vaccinated,"" he said, referring to himself. ""Then we got the two registered dogs over here. And believe me by the time they got through blow-drying their hair and pasting them all up they looked like they'd just been to a kennel show."" +If he is elected, Mr. Perot predicted, ""most of those congressmen and senators will be having ear jobs."" +With polls showing him trailing far behind Mr. Clinton and Mr. Bush, Mr. Perot encouraged his supporters to guarantee that poll takers had to start looking for work on Wednesday morning. And he urged them to grasp a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, saying the country might never again see a similar combination of grass-roots populism and an independent candidate with the financial capacity to compete. +""Seize the moment,"" he screamed. ""You can't just let drift continue. You've got to go do it."" Crowds in Kansas City +In Kansas City, Mo., Mr. Perot' second stop of the day, he kept up his strident attack against the President and Mr. Clinton. Indeed, he was much harder on the Arkansas Governor that he had been during his speech in Florida. +""I hitch-hiked all over Arkansas as a boy,"" he said. ""The license plate said it was the land of opportunity. After 12 years of Clinton, most of that opportunity is still waiting to happen."" +But Mr. Perot also raised an issue he has hardly addressed since the early days of his campaign last winter: gun control. +""Everybody keeps nibbling around these gun law things, right?"" Mr. Perot told a wildly cheering audience in Bartle Hall, a convention center in downtown Kansas City. ""Everybody keeps coming up with the wrong answers to the problem. I'll tell you what the answer to the problem is, on weapons. Let me just tell you what you can't do. You can't take weapons away from honest law-abiding people, particularly on the hard side of town."" Lusty Cheers +The crowd, which was nearly all white and did not fill the room's 10,000-person seating capacity, was made up of Perot backers from Missouri, Kansas, Arkansas, Iowa, Nebraska, Oklahoma and Colorado -- states where gun control is anathema to many voters. They cheered lustily when Mr. Perot called gun registration a ""timid step"" and when he advocated stiffer jail sentences for those who use a gun to commit crimes. +""As far as I'm concerned, if any human being uses a gun to intimidate others, like in a hold-up, or ever uses a gun to inflict violence on another person, we ain't going to see him on the street anymore, ever."" +Like many of Mr. Perot's infrequent campaign rallies, the Kansas City affair mixed touches of a country picnic with that of a political event. Before his appearance, the crowd was entertained by a video of Willie Nelson singing several songs. Before her husband spoke, Margot Perot led the crowd in singing ""Happy Birthday"" to Adriane Caggiano, whose birthday is in three days. +Miss Caggiano is the Kansas girl who wrote Mr. Perot a letter urging him to re-enter the race. At his news conference on Oct. 1, when he announced his return, Mr. Perot read the letter and held up a picture of her." +False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Noriega's Ex-Pilot Tells Of Medellin Drug Links +Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega's former pilot testified today that the Panamanian leader personally authorized him to tell leaders of the Medellin cocaine traffickers that they would be allowed to ship cocaine through Panama to the United States, an arrangement he said that eventually earned General Noriega at least $5 million. +In his second day on the witness stand, Floyd Carlton Caceres said two of the principal organizers of the cocaine traffickers, Pablo Escobar and Gustavo Gaviria, approached him through an intermediary in 1982 and asked him to ""go and talk with Noriega"" about an arrangement that would allow Mr. Carlton to fly cocaine from Medellin to airstrips in Panama with General Noriega's protection. After several weeks of negotiations, Mr. Carlton said, General Noriega agreed, but with one condition. +General Noriega ""told me he didn't want his name involved in this type of problem, and that if something happened, he would know nothing about it and have nothing to do with it,"" Mr. Carlton told the jury of nine women and three men. But Mr. Carlton said General Noriega also warned him that ""nothing is to be done without notifying me."" A Tense Relationship +As Mr. Carlton described it, the relationship between General Noriega and the Colombian cocaine group was a tense one, with the traffickers being forced at one point to pay a $500,000 bribe to gain the freedom of some of their men who had been imprisoned and tortured in Panama. +But the bad feelings and lack of trust, Mr. Carlton said, did not prevent the traffickers from paying General Noriega $4 million in 1984. That money specifically went to provide the drug traffickers with a safe haven after gunman they had hired assassinated the Attorney General of Colombia. +From the start, both the defense and prosecution have regarded Mr. Carlton as probably the most important of the 70 witnesses the Government is expected to call. Prosecutors hope that Mr. Carlton's role as the middleman between General Noriega and the drug traffickers will provide the decisive link they need to obtain a conviction. +General Noriega, who surrendered to American troops after the invasion of Panama in December 1989, is being tried on 10 counts of cocaine trafficking, money laundering and racketeering and faces up to 140 years in prison if convicted of all charges. +Mr. Carlton said the leaders of the Medellin group initially sought to pay General Noriega $30,000 to $50,000 for each flight of about 400 kilograms of cocaine. But when Mr. Carlton said he informed General Noriega of the offer, the Panamanian leader reacted with indignation. +""Either they're crazy or you are,"" Mr. Carlton recalled General Noriega as saying. ""Not for that kind of money. I won't allow it to happen for less than $100,000 a flight."" +Mr. Carlton said that when he returned to Medellin, a city in northwest Colombia which is the headquarters for the group, and told Mr. Escobar and Mr. Gaviria that ""my partner"" was demanding more money, they too showed irritation. ""This guy always goes for the high side,"" said Mr. Carlton, quoting the traffickers, who eventually agreed to General Noriega's terms. +Mr. Carlton also said that when he first met the leaders of the traffickers at their office in Medellin, they complained about the terms of an earlier deal they had made with General Noriega. As Mr. Carlton recalled the incident, the traffickers said they had been forced to pay General Noriega about $1 million to ransom crew members aboard a freighter carrying cocaine in coffee sacks, seized by the Panamanian military in Panamanian waters. +Mr. Carlton said that General Noriega became ""exceedingly upset"" when he first raised the possibility of doing business with the traffickers during a flight the two men were making together. ""He told me I should be grateful that on grounds of friendship he did not send me to jail,"" said Mr. Carlton, who served a four-year sentence on drug charges and now lives in the United States under an assumed identity as part of the Federal witness protection program. +But while attending a party at General Noriega's beach house a few weeks later, Mr. Carlton said, General Noriega pulled him aside and ""asked what about that business I had brought up.""

Manuel Antonio Noriega possibly in exchange for testimony against the deposed Panamanian dictator, Federal prosecutors have learned. +An informer told the Drug Enforcement Administration that the Cali drug cartel paid the witness, Ricardo Bilonick, to testify about General Noriega's ties to the rival Medellin cartel, with which Mr. Bilonick had worked, according to papers filed by Government prosecutors in Federal District Court here. The testimony of Mr. Bilonick, a Panamanian lawyer and former diplomat, helped lead to General Noriega's 1992 conviction for drug trafficking, on which he is serving a 40-year sentence in Federal prison here. +The bribery accusation, which the Government says it first heard about in September, became public this week when prosecutors replied in writing to General Noriega's request for a new trial. Prosecutors said that two months ago the informer told Federal drug agents that as a condition of Mr. Bilonick's testimony he had paid $250,000 directly to Mr. Bilonick and that another $1 million worth of certificates of deposit were placed in a safe-deposit box at a Panamanian bank. +The informer, whom prosecutors have not identified, said the payments were made the day before Mr. Bilonick surrendered to United States authorities as an indicted co-defendant in the Noriega drug case. He also said no Government agents or prosecutors knew about the payments, which prosecutors said was also confirmed a few weeks ago by a second informer who said he had overheard a conversation about the deal. +Federal prosecutors said the possible $1.25 million bribe was not sufficient to merit a new trial for General Noriega. ""The Government emphasizes that these +allegations are simply that -- allegations,"" they wrote in the court papers which include affidavits by Mr. Bilonick and his lawyer in which they denied that the payments had occurred and Mr. Bilonick called the suggestion ""idiotic."" Had such payments been revealed at trial, prosecutors said, they would have only served to impeach Mr. Bilonick's credibility as a witness, which they contended ""was not the linchpin of the Government's case."" +Lawyers for General Noriega had requested a new trial based on another aspect of how Mr. Bilonick surrendered to United States authorities. They said that Mr. Bilonick had surrendered and testified in a secret deal made between the Government and the Cali cartel that was never disclosed to the defense or the jury. +Under that arrangement, acknowledged by prosecutors this week in their new court filings, Mr. Bilonick was persuaded by the brother of a Cali cartel leader to surrender to the authorities and testify. In exchange, the cartel leader's imprisoned brother, Luis Santacruz Echeverri, won a reduced prison sentence -- to 14 years from 23 years -- in an unrelated case. General Noriega's lawyers said the secret deal came to light two months ago when a person they would not identify provided them with letters exchanged by the United States Attorney's office in Miami and a lawyer for the Cali drug cartel. +The Government said in court papers that it did not disclose the terms of the nine-year reduction in Mr. Santacruz's sentence because it ""had no influence whatsoever on Bilonick's decision to surrender, cooperate and testify in the Noriega case."" Prosecutors wrote that the decision not to disclose the deal was ""made in absolute good faith"" and that it ""does not undermine confidence in the outcome of defendant Noriega's trial."" Mr. Bilonick was sentenced to four years in prison and is now free. +But General Noriega's lawyers contend that the jury should have known his testimony came as part of the larger deal. They say the cartel might have compelled Mr. Bilonick to testify with an offer of ""silver or lead"" -- rich reward or violent punishment -- in exchange for his testimony that General Noriega had allowed cocaine to be shipped through Panama by the Medellin cartel. +Frank A. Rubino, a lawyer for General Noriega, said the Government made a political ""deal with the devil"" by taking any measures necessary to convict General Noriega in an effort to justify the invasion of Panama by United States troops. +General Noriega was apprehended in January 1990 after the American invasion of Panama, and defense lawyers have argued that the Bush Administration overstepped the law because it could not afford to see the toppled dictator go free.

Manuel Antonio Noriega was killed Wednesday night in a single-vehicle car wreck in Miami, a few days before the witness was to testify in the trial of two of the General's co-defendants. +The death of Ramon A. Navarro, a 41-year-old paid informer for the Government, threw the trial into turmoil and appeared to weaken the case against the General, who will be tried separately in June. +Mr. Navarro was killed about 11:30 P.M. Wednesday after he lost control of the car he was driving in alone on a two-lane road southwest of Miami, the Metro-Dade police said. +Today, traffic homicide investigators were reviewing the circumstances surrounding the crash. Although such inquiries are routine, a police spokesman said the police were investigating the crash because the victim was a Government witness in an important drug prosecution. An assistant United States Attorney in Miami, Robert Mueller, was quoted by The Associated Press as saying that his office would ""look into the circumstances"" of the crash. +A spokesman for the Federal Bureau of Investigation in Miami said today that the agency had not been asked to investigate the crash. A spokesman for the Federal Drug Enforcement Administration in Miami, which conducted the investigation that led to the Noriega indictment, declined to comment on Mr. Navarro's death. +Prosecutors said the death of the witness would not interrupt their case. ""Full speed ahead, damn the torpedoes,"" said Michael P. Sullivan, the lead prosecutor. +Mr. Navarro's vehicle swerved across the highway, striking a fence and electrical transformer but causing no explosion, the police said. The accident occurred in an affluent area where Mr. Navarro lived, one police official said. He said the cause of the crash had not been determined, adding that there was no immediate indication that Mr. Navarro's death was suspicious. +Mr. Navarro had been expected to be a crucial witness in the trial of Brian Alden Davidow and William Saldarriaga, which began on Monday in Federal District Court in Miami, on charges that they tried to smuggle 322 kilograms of cocaine in March 1986 into the United States aboard a luxury cabin cruiser, the ""Krill."" +Each is accused of two narcotics violations: conspiring to import drugs as well as aiding and abetting in the importing of drugs. If convicted, each faces a maximum penalty of 40 years in prison and fines of up to $500,000. Both men have pleaded not guilty. +Mr. Sullivan charged in his opening statement on Wednesday that Mr. Davidow and Mr. Saldarriaga had operated under the ""protection"" of General Noriega, who Mr. Sullivan said personally approved the cocaine shipment. The prosecutor said the shipment was bartered with the Medellin drug organization for 1,000 M-16 rifles removed from an arsenal of the Panamanian Defense Force, which is now defunct. +The prosecutor acknowledged in the statement that Mr. Navarro was himself a ""notorious drug smuggler"" who took part in the deal, and he said that he would directly implicate Mr. Davidow and Mr. Saldarriaga. Court documents filed previously in the case show that the Government paid Mr. Navarro $170,000 for information about drug-trafficking activities and granted him immunity for a number of narcotics-related crimes in return for his testimony in the Noriega case. +Mr. Sullivan said Mr. Navarro had taken part in a meeting in the Bank of Boston building in Panama City in March 1986 in which Mr. Saldarriaga and Mr. Davidow met with several other people to arrange the Krill deal. Noriega Role Alleged +The prosecutor said General Noriega spoke to the group by speaker phone, discussing the guns-for-cocaine deal. He added that the group agreed that ""Noriega would get a portion of the profits after the cocaine was sold."" +Mr. Sullivan acknowledged in court today that the Government had lost an important witness. But defense lawyers, as well as other lawyers in Miami, said the prosecutors could rely on others to duplicate part's of Mr. Navarro's testimony. One expected witness is Amet Paredes, the son of Gen. Ruben Dario Paredes, a former Noriega associate who later became a bitter enemy. Amet Paredes, who had been accused of taking part in the Krill deal, recently pleaded guilty and agreed to testify for the Government. +This afternoon, Janice Burton Sharpstein, one of Mr. Davidow's lawyers, filed a motion seeking a mistrial on the ground that the defense had prepared its case assuming Mr. Navarro would be a central witnesses. In addition, she said the defense planned to use Mr. Navarro to discredit the testimony of other witnesses. +Judge William M. Hoeveler, who is presiding over the trial, denied the motion, saying Mr. Navarro's death affected both the prosecution and defense equally. He added that the jurors in the case would not be prejudiced by learning that Mr. Navarro he had died. +Frank A. Rubino, General Noriega's lead defense lawyer, said today in an interview that Mr. Navarro's death removed one of the more important witnesses from a list of about 25 people expected to testify against the General. ""There may a group of six or eight who are probably stronger witnesses,"" he said. ""He was was one of the more substantive."" +But Mr. Rubino said Mr. Navarro's knowledge was limited to the events surrounding the Krill shipment while the indictment against the General accuses him of taking part in a broad array of separate drug trafficking activities from 1981 to 1986." +False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Judge Chides CNN in Contempt Trial Over Noriega Conversations +In a criminal-contempt case against CNN, defense lawyers said today that the network believed it was not defying a Federal judge when it broadcast prison phone calls by the former Panamanian strongman, Manuel Antonio Noriega. +But that defense appeared not to impress Judge William M. Hoeveler of Federal District Court, the judge who barred the broadcasts in 1990. He told CNN's lawyers that they had not completely understood his ban or the issues surrounding it, at one point asking, ""Have you read the law recently on that subject?"" +Defense lawyers also admitted that they were dismayed when the CNN anchor, Bernard Shaw, introduced a report by saying, ""And just a little bit later, on 'The World Today,' those very tapes CNN has been ordered not to broadcast."" +One lawyer, Stuart Pierson, said that Mr. Shaw's remarks were not part of any script that CNN's lawyers had reviewed, and that when the legal team watched the broadcast live on Nov. 9, 1990, ""there was an audible groan in the room."" +The nonjury trial, which began on Tuesday, arises from reports CNN made in November 1990, when General Noriega was at the Metropolitan Correction Center here awaiting trial on drug-trafficking charges. In its first report, CNN said it had obtained copies of tape-recorded conversations between General Noriega and his lawyers. +Under Federal law, the telephone calls of prisoners in Federal jails are routinely and legally taped to prevent their plotting crimes behind bars. But calls between an inmate and his lawyers may not generally be taped, to protect the inmate's right to prepare a defense in confidentiality. +When the Justice Department said the Government had not made improper recordings of General Noriega's conversations, CNN broadcast a second report, playing excerpts of the tapes, though Judge Hoeveler had ordered it network not to do so. +At the time, executives at CNN argued that the ruling was an unconstitutional prior restraint of its First Amendment right to disseminate the news. But higher courts, including the Supreme Court, upheld Judge Hoeveler's ruling, saying he could issue a temporary ban in an effort to balance the free-press rights of the news media against General Noriega's right to a fair trial. +The question in the contempt trial is, did the network knowingly violate Judge Hoeveler's order? If convicted, CNN could be fined up to $100,000. +Today, lawyers for the network said they had interpreted the judge's order as only barring the broadcast of confidential conversations between General Noriega and his lawyers or their staff. They said they believed the general's lawyer, Frank A. Rubino, had implicitly waived the right to keep the tapes confidential when he listened to them in an interview with CNN before the broadcast. +But Judge Hoeveler asked Mr. Pierson if he was aware that the privilege of keeping conversations between lawyers and clients confidential could only be waived by the client. ""Have your read the law recently on that subject?"" he asked Mr. Pierson, an authority on media law who helped guide CNN in the development of the story. With an impatient tone, the judge also said, ""Did it occur to anyone that a lawyer may not waive a client's privilege?"" +Mr. Pierson said he believed this case was an exception to that rule.

Manuel Antonio Noriega, the Panamanian leader. John H. Sununu, the White House chief of staff, ordered a study of how the Panama coup was handled. [ Page A11. ] Moreover, there was continued criticism on Capitol Hill of the Administration's decision not to help the rebels more. That led to mutual recriminations between the Administration and members of Congress, like Senator Jesse Helms, Republican of North Carolina. Noriega Was Believed Captive +Although many facts remain in dispute, officials said it was now accepted that General Noriega was in fact held prisoner by the rebels for between two and four hours during the coup Tuesday. On Wednesday, officials in Washington said they were not certain he had been a prisoner. Senator Helms said the United States lost its chance at getting the general because of the confusion and because it did not respond to a rebel appeal for military support in apprehending him. +In Panama tonight, armed men attacked the opposition party headquarters hours after General Noriega signaled a sweeping crackdown and opposition figures were detained. [ Page A10. ] One important new disclosure surrounding the coup was that two days after President Bush declared publicly that it was not an American operation, Administration officials said United States Army troops in Panama had moved at the request of the rebels to block two routes that the rebels suspected would be used by forces loyal to the general. In earlier reports of the roadblocks, American officials had said the intention was merely to protect American lives and property. +The officials said the roadblock failed because a third road eventually used by General Noriega's loyal troops was not blocked. +The White House was on the defensive today as Senator Helms derided the Administration as 'Keystone Kops' who displayed a 'total lack of planning.' +Defense Secretary Dick Cheney, in an interview in his office, said, 'That is crazy, in my humble opinion.' +Mr. Cheney said the White House had 'made a conscious decision' not to confront the Noriega forces actively because officials did not see any circumstances under which they would have seized General Noriega without going to war with an element of the Panamanian Defense Forces. +Earlier, Mr. Cheney called Senator Helms's account 'a bunch of hogwash.' +Since Mr. Bush earlier this year had publicly invited Panama's military to oust General Noriega and turn him over to the United States, the accusations of bungling, if true, could lead to the Administration's first major foreign policy embarrassment. +In assailing the Administration, Mr. Helms provided an account of events that sharply conflicted with virtually every statement by Administration spokesmen in the last two days. +Although Mr. Cheney and other officials disputed Mr. Helms's account, several Administration policymakers acknowledged that there was some validity to his general point that the White House had not handled the rebellion properly. +White House officials said they lacked sufficient procedures to manage the fast-moving crisis, and they noted that at no time did all top national-security officials meet in one place to discuss strategy. Feverish Round of Meetings +The accusations by Mr. Helms, presented in a speech on the Senate floor, plunged the White House into a feverish round of meetings, and Mr. Sununu met with senior aides to Mr. Helms. +The principal issue in dispute between Senator Helms and the White House is whether the rebels ever offered to turn General Noriega over to the American authorities. Mr. Helms asserted that at 9 A.M. Tuesday, the rebel officers told an American general that while they lacked the firepower to deliver the general, they invited the United States to fight its way into the compound and apprehend him. +The Administration, with Mr. Cheney as its spokesman, has said the rebels refused to turn over General Noriega and wanted instead to permit him to live peacefully in internal exile in Panama. According to the Administration version, that exchange took place later in the coup, about 11:30 P.M. Panamanian time on Tuesday. Panama is one hour behind Washington. +An Administration official with access to extensive reporting on the issue said the discrepancy probably stemmed from missed communications among the military, intelligence and diplomatic officials in Panama. 'Won't' Became 'Want' +That official said the rebels had told military officers in the Army's Southern Command that they 'won't' turn General Noriega over. That was accurately relayed to Pentagon officials in Washington. Meanwhile, the Southern Command told the embassy in Panama of that information, which was misunderstood as their suggesting that the rebels 'want' to turn him over. +That fact was reported to the State Department and Central Intelligence Agency simultaneously, prompting the State Department to call a hurried meeting with Government lawyers to consider such a step. Minutes later, the coup collapsed. One official attributed the confusion to the fact that most of the communications among American officials were by telephone, and that connections were poor because Noriega loyalists intermittently interfered with the lines. +A few hours later, C.I.A. representatives were in Congress briefing members of the Congressional intelligence committees with the agency's version of events, which was that the rebels were prepared to hand over General Noriega. +Officials said the C.I.A. briefings, which contradicted the White House version of events, contributed to the storm of outrage from Mr. Helms and other Noriega critics, such as Senator David L. Boren, Democrat of Oklahoma and chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, and Senator John Kerry, Democrat of Massachusetts. Acting on Helms Pressure +The pressure prompted Administration officials to elaborate on their actions before the coup. Administration officials said American representatives in Panama City were tipped off late Sunday night that the rebels planned a coup on Monday morning. +Officials said the leaders of the coup asked that the United States block the gate to Fort Amador, a Panamanian-American base that is home to the Panamanian Defense Forces' Fifth Company, and a road near Howard Air Force Base that it was believed the Seventh Company would cross if they sought to reinforce the rebels. +An Administration official said the rebels had been asked whether such American help was a prerequisite to undertaking a coup. 'They said no, we'll go ahead anyway, but this would be helpful,' the official said. No Aim to Seize Noriega +The plan, as related by the rebel officers, was to declare a coup and then wait to see how many units rallied to each side. 'They said their objective was not to capture Noriega,' an Administration official said. +'They were just planning to announce that various senior officers had been retired,' the official said. 'This is traditional Panamanian coupism -you make announcements, then look at who has the most units. Whoever has the most wins, and the losers take refuge in the Canal Zone. Unfortunately, Noriega wasn't playing by these rules.' +According to Mr. Cheney, senior American officials had been prepared on Sunday to put the American forces into position to cut the two roads but did not decide to go ahead until Monday. +Early Tuesday, American forces moved into position at Fort Amador and Howard Air Force Base. The coup began at 7 A.M. Panamanian time, and the Fifth Company, in Fort Amador, made no move to mobilize its forces. At 11 A.M., the United States Army blocked the Amador gates. +An American official said that though the plan had not called for General Noriega's capture, the rebels 'fortuitously' seized him in the Defense Forces headquarters and held him for several hours. +The Pentagon said the road near the Air Force base was blocked at 12:59. +Mr. Helms insisted that in a conversation at 9 A.M. the rebels invited the Americans to take General Noriega off their hands. At 9:30, Senator Helms said he received a call from Panamanian opposition figures who wanted Washington to block the road from the Tocumen Airport to the General Headquarters, where the general was being held. +Senator Helms said he called the White House and was told that high-level officials were all involved in meetings with visitors like Dmitri T. Yazov, the Soviet Defense Minister, or President Carlos Salinas de Gortari of Mexico. +Within hours, General Noriega had flown his forces to the airport, then had them move over the bridge the rebels had asked to be blocked." +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,"Rivera Is Doing His Part For Children's Hospital +Mariano Rivera met Yordano Alvarez a year ago at a telethon in Panama, two heroes of their country. Rivera is the closer for the Yankees, the pitcher who finished three straight World Series championships before failing last month. The 11-year-old Yordano is the poster boy for the 20-30 Teletón, an annual fund-raiser for children in Panama. +'He is as much a star in Panama as Mariano,' Dr. Hillel Ephros said. +Ephros and a team of doctors from St. Joseph's Children's Hospital in Paterson, N.J., joined the two Panamanians yesterday at the Children's Museum of Manhattan. The hospital's Craniofacial Center paid for and performed corrective surgery on Yordano. +As the boy held a microphone while Rivera was being interviewed by a Spanish-language television station and then gestured to photographers to take his picture, Rivera's smile showed how far removed he felt from his ninth-inning failure in Game 7, when the Arizona Diamondbacks scored twice to end his streak of 23 straight postseason saves. +Rivera sounded as he did Nov. 4. He was here for Yordano and to help the hospital raise money for its program, not to dwell on the past. Rivera made a throwing error, then allowed a game-tying double to Tony Womack and Luis Gonzalez's game-winning bloop single. +'I tell you what, the World Series was something very good,' Rivera said. 'I can't take nothing away from that. It was a great Series. Unfortunately, we lost. But, hey, life moves on. When you see kids like Yordano, life is not too bad.' +In a rare speech before Game 7, Rivera told his teammates they would win. When they took an eighth-inning lead, Manager Joe Torre brought in Rivera and Yankees fans had to sense the Series was theirs. +Torre was having Rivera try for another two-inning save, necessitated by a bullpen thinner than in the past. Rivera and Mike Stanton should have more help next season, especially if the Yankees sign Steve Karsay as a right-handed setup man. Still, Rivera said he would not second-guess Torre or himself for his two-inning appearances. +'We did our best,' Rivera said. 'I feel good. I feel great. We tried our best and didn't finish it. We have to move on and be ready for next year. +'It was going to happen and I was the guy who did it.' +Yesterday Rivera's concern was Yordano, whose precociousness shows the hospital's work has helped. Yordano was born without a right eye, and after receiving treatment in Panama most of his life, he was chosen by St. Joseph's as a patient. He has spent the past two months living with a Montville, N.J., family while undergoing surgery to correct the bones in his skull as specialists cared for his brain. +'Yordano feels very happy,' Lury Alvarez, his mother, said. 'He's different. He looks handsome. He's even a little conceited.' +Yordano is known as El Presidente at St. Joseph's 'because with his personality, it is anticipated he will one day be the president of Panama,' Ephros said. +Rivera is aware of a parent's strain. He saw it in the eyes of catcher Jorge Posada the past two seasons, as his son Jorge IV had three brain operations. Posada's son had craniosynostosis, the premature fusing of the bones in the skull. It requires similar specialists to those who operated on Yordano, Ephros said. +Rivera returned to Panama after the Series and will go back for New Year's, but he is a New Yorker. Rivera now spends the bulk of his winter at home in Westchester County, his children in local schools. +Yordano will return to Panama on Saturday and will be back in New Jersey in 9 to 12 months to have more surgery. Rivera hopes to celebrate by having him go to a Yankees game. If the timing is right, that may mean another Yankees World Series. +BASEBALL" +True,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Coach Changes Panama for Better +When José Hernández arrived from Colombia to coach Panama's national team, his players refused to practice in the rain. Not a good sign in a country with a tropical climate. +'Always a permanent battle in Panama,' Hernández said through an interpreter on Saturday, the day before his team lost to the United States in the Gold Cup final. (His interpreter was Chico Borja, a former player for the Cosmos who is from Belleville, N.J.) 'It was totally crazy that they wouldn't play in the rain. +'I told them that every single day you need to be at work, and to assume that is what they have to do. I am the equipment manager, the bus driver, I give the players their checks. When I got there, we had only one field available. Now we hope to turn some of our baseball fields into soccer fields. +'Of course there are times when I ask myself, 'What am I doing here?'' +Hernández has taken Panama to the final stage of regional qualifying for the World Cup. Panama is last in the six-nation group with five games left, but Hernández said he believed he had changed the conversation in a country of 3.1 million people that absorbed a passion for baseball and boxing during the United States' stewardship of the Panama Canal. +'We simply don't have the experience to be competitive in the last stage of qualifying,' he said. 'Most of my team is simply satisfied that we went to the next round. The Gold Cup has given me a chance to get my players to concentrate, away from their families.' +In the tournament, Panama gave its coach a rare gift -- two victories over his native country, in the first round, then in the semifinals. +'I like to say we've beaten Colombia three times, twice in this tournament and in 1903,' Hernández said, referring to the year Panama, with support from the United States, seceded from Colombia. +After its unlikely run to the Gold Cup final, Panama must now concentrate on World Cup qualifying. Panama, which has 2 points from five games, must win at Guatemala on Aug. 17. Mexico and the United States, which are first and second in the group, are nearly certain to qualify for Germany 2006. Panama, Trinidad and Tobago, Guatemala and Costa Rica are competing for the third automatic berth. +The fourth-place team will play a home-and-away series against either Uzbekistan, Kuwait or Bahrain for a place in the World Cup. +'For Panama, it feels like something has opened up,' Hernández said. 'Now we believe we can compete.' +UNITED STATES +Living Like Royalty +It has been said that a man's home is his castle. For Kasey Keller, a castle is his home. +Keller, the No. 1 goalkeeper for the United States men's national team, will soon head back to Germany to play for Borussia Mönchengladbach and live in a thousand-year-old castle near Dortmund, where he now lives with his family. +'My wife found it online,' Keller said last week. 'They were renting it out for weddings, but wanted to rent it full time. It's been a great experience. My kids are enjoying it.' +Keller led the United States to its third Gold Cup title, stopping three penalty kicks by Panama, and he is the clear first choice of Manager Bruce Arena as the United States team wraps up World Cup qualifying and prepares for next year's World Cup in Germany. +'Kasey has a burning desire to excel and cap off his career at the World Cup,' Arena said. 'He has made some bold moves to assure that he keeps playing, and that has helped because he has picked up valuable experience and a volume of knowledge.' +Although Keller holds nearly every individual goalkeeping record for the national team, he was relegated to the bench in 2002, when Brad Friedel helped the United States advance to the quarterfinals. At 35, Keller has matured into a steady and solid presence in goal after having played professionally in Spain (Rayo Vallecano), England (Milwall, Leicester City, Tottenham and Southampton) and Germany. +'I've been with the national team for 15 years,' Keller said. 'And playing in the Gold Cup got me out of preseason training. My team just got back from running in the Austrian mountains for eight days.' +Now Keller gets to go home to his own castle. +MAJOR LEAGUE SOCCER +Lalas Is Fined for Comments +Alexi Lalas, the president and general manager of the MetroStars, was fined $2,000 by M.L.S. for his recent comments to The New York Times in which he said the club would like to acquire Freddy Adu from D.C. United. The MetroStars are expected to announce the signing of Eric Quill soon. Quill, a 27-year-old left-sided midfielder, is coming back from a leg injury. He has been with the MetroStars, playing in reserve games, and has played for Tampa Bay, Kansas City and Dallas. The MetroStars missed out on signing the 34-year-old midfielder Alfredo Cascini from Boca Juniors in Argentina when he went to Lanús. +FC DALLAS -- Two weeks after the complete list of M.L.S. salaries became public and showed that Eddie Johnson was the second-highest-paid player in the league, FC Dallas officially announced last week that it had signed Johnson, 21, to a multiyear contract extension. Johnson, who has been sought by European clubs, has a base salary of $750,000, which could grow to $875,000 with bonuses and incentives. +TRIP TO SPAIN -- An M.L.S. all-star team has been invited to play Real Madrid on Aug. 23 in Spain in the club's annual curtain-raiser, the Trofeo Santiago Bernabéu game. +Corner Kicks +GERMANY -- Benny Feilhaber, a star at U.C.L.A. and for the United States at last month's world youth championship in the Netherlands, has signed a contract with Hamburg SV.

Manuel Antonio Noriega, saying that defense lawyers had failed to show that they were seriously harmed by the Government's taping of the general's telephone calls. +The ruling by Judge William M. Hoeveler of Federal District Court clears the way for General Noriega's trial to begin June 24. +Judge Hoeveler criticized Federal prosecutors for improperly subpoenaeing the tapes, which were made by the Federal Bureau of Prisons, without informing the defense.

Manuel Antonio Noriega's closest aides for 25 years testified today that he had delivered drug payoff money to the Panamanian dictator and that later, on General Noriega's instructions, he denied to judicial investigators that any such payments had been made. +In his third day on the witness stand at a Federal Courthouse here, the officer, Lieut. Col. Luis del Cid, said he had also accompanied his commanding officer, later deposed as dictator in the American invasion of Panama, to a meeting with President Fidel Castro in Cuba. The meeting is said to have been called so that the two leaders could discuss a drug trafficking dispute. +But most of Colonel del Cid's testimony focused on what he described as large, secret payments of cash and gifts, including the services of prostitutes, that were delivered to General Noriega at his military headquarters. He described himself as General Noriega's ""errand boy"" and bodyguard. 'It Might Be a Bomb' +Colonel del Cid said drug money was inside a heavy envelope given to him on one occasion by one of General Noriega's personal pilots, who has admitted acting as a courier for drug money for the cocaine manufacturing and trafficking cartel based in the Colombian city of Medellin. ""I told him to watch out, it might be a bomb."" +General Noriega, who surrendered to American military forces after the invasion in December 1989, has been charged with 10 counts of drug trafficking, money laundering and racketeering and faces a maximum sentence of 140 years if convicted on all charges. Colonel del Cid was also captured in the invasion and later pleaded guilty, as prosecutors told the jury, to acting as ""General Noriega's bagman."" +Colonel del Cid said that on other occasions General Noriega ordered him to go to Panama's main international airport, armed and with an escort, to meet other Noriega associates arriving on commercial flights from abroad. The associates' suitcases were also filled with cash that he presumed to be payoffs for allowing Panama to be used as a drug shipping point or for money laundering by Colombian drug traffickers, Colonel del Cid added. An Earlier Investigation +In his testimony today, Colonel del Cid said that after he and General Noriega were indicted by two Florida grand juries in February 1988, the Panamanian Government began its own investigation, which led to his being called to make a statement. He said he was approached by another officer who said he had been instructed by General Noriega to tell Colonel del Cid ""that I was to say no, that I had not received anything"" from agents of the traffickers for delivery to General Noriega. Colonel del Cid said that he obeyed the order, and that the investigation went nowhere. +For the first time since the trial began, the jury heard testimony about a 1984 meeting in Havana in which Mr. Castro is said by the prosecution to have mediated a quarrel between General Noriega and the Medellin cartel. That dispute broke out after the Panamanian military raided a cocaine-processing laboratory that the Colombian traffickers had paid $6 million to a Noriega subordinate to protect. +Colonel del Cid acknowledged that he had not participated in the Havana meeting with General Noriega and Mr. Castro. But he said that he saw Mr. Castro arrive and that he also saw another Panamanian military official go into the meeting carrying videotapes made of the drug laboratory. +In the most unusual moment of the trial so far, Colonel del Cid said that Panama's Ambassador to France, Gaspar Whitgreen, brought four French prostitutes to Panama Defense Forces headquarters after General Noriega was promoted to commander-in-chief in 1983. When asked what the women did after they arrived, he replied: ""They went to visit the general."" +General Noriega's lawyer, Frank A. Rubino, angrily demanded a mistrial. Judge William M.

Or is he as fearful as suggested by Senator Jesse Helms, Republican of North Carolina, who also described the Administration's response to the coup attempt as worthy of the Keystone Kops? +Is the President really as passive as he was painted on Thursday in the syndicated column of George Will, a leading conservative who is closely followed in official Washington? Mr. Will accused Mr. Bush of conducting 'an unserious Presidency' and said tartly that its symbol 'should be a wetted finger held up to the breezes.' +Is Mr. Bush 'facing the political realities,' as an aide said this week, in refusing to contemplate higher taxes as part of a debt-reduction deal with Congressional Democrats? Or has he forgotten, as a visiting European minister commented, 'that the purpose of politics is power, the purpose of power is to govern, and the purpose of governing is to show the way forward, even when it is unpopular'? Washington vs. the Country +Washington seems to have made up its mind, at least for the moment, that George Bush is too timid, and the President seems sure to be dogged by such questions into the New Year, but the verdict in the country as a whole is much more positive, partly because the Democrats have had difficulty in making the opposition case effectively. +For weeks now, the President has been taken to task here for not moving far enough fast enough to help the Eastern European countries that are seeking to reshape their destinies, free of domination by Moscow; for not condemning with sufficient vigor the repression of Chinese liberals; for talking about improved education and a cleaner environment but failing to explain where the money will come from, and for continuing to lack what he described, during a moment of irritation during the 1988 campaign, as 'the vision thing.' +But the Panama episode greatly intensified the criticism and caused the critics to find other signs of shortcoming in an Administration that only a few weeks ago was bragging about its 70 percent public approval rating. Liberals and conservatives have joined, on occasion, in voicing sharp complaints. +In a typical comment on the Hill, Representative Dave McCurdy, an Oklahoma Democrat who sits on the House intelligence committee, recalled the days when the United States seemed unable to free the hostages held in Teheran and said that the Panama episode 'makes Jimmy Carter look like a man of resolve.' Panama Was 'Fiasco' +A senior diplomat based in Washington, a friend and usually a fervent supporter of the President, said Panama constituted 'a total fiasco.' +The Bush-bashing has been no less severe in the news media. Newsweek magazine's cover this week, to cite just one example among dozens, carried the bold legend, 'Amateur Hour.' +Politicians, bureaucrats and commentators are beginning to argue that the problem is a lack of Presidential instinct for the bold stroke. Gerald R. Ford's explanation of his order to recapture the cargo ship Mayaguez with the simple phrase, 'I felt something had to be done,' and countless quick decisions by Ronald Reagan are cited in contrast to Mr. Bush's deliberation, even though some looked better in the heat of the moment than in retrospect. +There seems little doubt that among politicians the President has been hurt by Panama and by public disputes within his inner circle - one week, Richard G. Darman, the budget director, versus Dr. Louis W. Sullivan, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, over health benefits to cover the catastrophic costs of extended illnesses; the next week, John H. Sununu, the White House chief of staff, versus William K. Reilly, administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, over clean air proposals. +Nor has Mr. Bush been helped by the shift in the political winds on abortion. His 1980 position supporting it in several circumstances now seems to represent the position of the majority, but that is not his position any more. He showed his discomfiture at an informal news conference on Friday where he seemed to be seeking a way out of a damaging political fight while still appearing to stick to his guns. Popular Outside Beltway +Yet, for all the flak he is taking, Mr. Bush manages to remain a highly popular figure outside the Beltway. Indeed, according to early polls, more Americans thought the United States did what it should have done in Panama than thought the Administration had done too little, although according to one survey about 3 people in 10, a significant number, favored bolder action against General Manuel Antonio Noriega and his corrupt regime. +Like matrimonial honeymoons, political honeymoons end, and George Bush's appears to have done so, considerably later than those of most recent Presidents. But Speaker Thomas S. Foley, who has clashed recently with the President over the capital gains tax as well as other issues, warns that 'the public has a great desire for Presidents to succeed, and that sentiment continues to benefit this one.' +The Speaker, a Democrat from Washington, said over breakfast one day this week, 'Once things have calmed down, you will see a lot of people saying, 'The King was badly advised by his ministers on this.' It takes a lot of mistakes over a long period to cause a president real, lasting harm.' +In addition, Mr. Foley added, Mr. Bush has a special knack 'for closing the expectations gap with rhetoric' -listening to demands for more action in this area or that, and then, not unlike the Little Prince in Antoine de Saint-Exupery's story, urging Congress to do what it already intends to do, and thus earning a reputation for reasonableness that disarms the critics who have been proclaiming him too timid. +PRUDENT MEETS TIMID" +False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"U.S. Is Given More Time on Noriega Evidence +LEAD: A Federal magistrate today rejected a motion by a lawyer for Gen.

Manuel Antonio Noriega that would have compelled Government prosecutors to provide 'forthwith,' instead of in the next week or so, a complete inventory of evidence seized by American troops at homes and offices of the deposed Panamanian military leader. +The attorney, Steven Kollin, who is helping to defend the general against charges of drug trafficking and money laundering, had earlier accused Federal prosecutors of 'trying to sabotage our defense' by failing to obey a court order two weeks ago to produce the list. +General Noriega was not present today for the hourlong hearing, which was convened in Federal District Court here. +Mr. Kollin also said that he was concerned about the handling of the evidence, saying he had been informed by one of the prosecutors, Michael Sullivan, that American troops had recently handed over control of one of the general's homes in Panama, a beach house in the Pacific coastal town of Rio Hato, to Panama's new civilian Government. +'This is the first time that I have heard that Panama had taken over' any piece of evidence, including buildings once controlled by the general, Mr. Kollin said. He said he was concerned that material vital to the defense might be stolen, lost or mishandled. +But the Federal magistrate, William C. Turnoff, denied Mr. Kollin's motion to force prosecutors to produce the inventory, saying he had seen 'no indication that the Government was acting in anything but good faith' in assembling the list. He added that he hoped it would be made available to the defense team for General Noriega in time for a new hearing next Wednesday. +Still, the magistrate said the defense had every right to worry about the delay and about who had custody of the evidence and he ordered prosecutors not to turn over anything to the new Panamanian Government without first allowing defense lawyers to examine it. +The magistrate characterized his order today as an adjunct to a ruling he issued Jan. 19 that barred the Government from destroying any evidence relevant to General Noriega's defense. +On Thursday, General Noriega is expected to be in court for another hearing, this time before Judge William M.

Manuel Antonio Noriega today ruled out any plea arrangement with prosecutors and attacked expected Government witnesses as lacking credibility. +Lawyers for Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega today ruled out any plea arrangement with prosecutors and attacked expected Government witnesses as lacking credibility. +'If you're innocent, you don't plea bargain,' said Steven Kollin, a lawyer for General Noriega, the fallen Panamaian dictator who was brought here last week for trial on drug-trafficking charges. +Asked if there was any condition in which he would agree to a deal for his client, Mr. Kollin replied, 'It will never happen.' He also said there had been no discussions with prosecutors about a plea arrangement. +On Friday, President Bush said the Government was 'not seeking a deal' with General Noriega, but would not categorically reject that possibility. +Lawyers Criticize Witnesses +In separate interviews, Mr. Kollin and Frank A. Rubino, General Noriega's other lawyer, said they were confident about the strength of their defense because they believe they can discredit the testimony of the general's former associates who may be the main witnesses. +Both lawyers have met for several hours in the last four days with General Noriega, who has been stripped of his rank and dismissed from the military by the new civilian Government in Panama. The meetings were at the United States courthouse in downtown Miami, where the general is being held under tight security. +Referring to possible prosecution witnesses, Mr. Kollin asked: 'Would you have these people baby-sit for your children? Even one night?.' +The lawyers were particularly critical of Jose I. Blandon, a former political adviser to General Noriega who, in testimony before a grand jury here provided important information for the indictment, including an account of a dispute between General Noriega and the cocaine drug ring based in the Medellin region of Colombia over protection of a laboratory in Panama. +'There's no question the man is a liar,' Mr. Rubino said. Noting that Mr. Blandon was once a defender of General Noriega, he added: 'He said one thing in Panama and changed his tune here in America. It seems whoever feeds him in the person he cheers on.' +'Cream on Top of the Case +Mr. Kollin said that 'with Blandon in particular, we have to look at each and every aspect of his testimony.' +Mr. Blandon's telephone number has been changed and is unlisted, and he could not be reached for comment today. Atlee Wampler, a Miami lawyer who has represented him, also has an unlisted home number and could not be reached for comment. +But Richard D. Gregorie, a former Federal prosecutor here who helped prepare the case against General Noriega, today defended Mr. Blandon as a credible witness. 'He was sort of the cream on top of the case,' he said. 'He gave us some interesting stuff.' The defense lawyers also cited Steven Michael Kalish, a convicted drug smuggler who was the main witness in a separate indictment against General Noriega in Federal court in Tampa and whose testimony may be sought in the Miami case. Mr. Kalish has testified he paid General Noriega large sums so he could smuggle marijuana through Panama and launder drug money there. +Sarcastic Comments +In clearly sarcastic comments, Mr. Rubino said the Government's attitude about Mr. Kalish is that 'his morality is such that he'll smuggle dope - but he's got his morals, he won't lie, we don't have to worry about his honesty and veracity and the fact that he's in prison.' Continuing to mock the possible witness, he added: 'Steve Kalish got a sentence of 12 years. What does Steven Kalish have to gain by incriminating the General?' +Alan Ellis, a lawyer who has defended Mr. Kalish, was not at his office today and a reporter's telehpone calls to his home were not answered. +In addition to Mr. Blandon and Mr. Kalish, Mr. Kollin said he expected the other chief prosecution witness to be Floyd Carlton Caceres, a convicted drug smuggler who was a pilot for General Noriega. +'We know the motives of witnesses who are past drug dealers: to get cushy deals,' Mr. Kollin said. +David Runkel, the chief spokesman for the Justice Department in Washington, responded today by saying he would not 'publicly argue the Government's positions.' He also said it was too early to discuss witnesses because 'the Government's case is not going to be known until the proceedings are under way in court.' +Asked to respond to the defense lawyers' assertions, Diane B. Cossin, a spokeswoman for the United States attorney's office here, said: 'Defense counsels always try to attack the witnesses called by the prosecution.' +Motions in a Month or Two +Government officials have been tight-lipped about whether General Noriega would be moved from a jail cell in downtown Miami to more secure facilities. But they suggested privately that he would be kept in South Florida, and Mr. Kollin said he has received assurances from officials that his client would remain in close proximity to his lawyers. +The lawyers said it was unlikely they would file any legal motions for 30 to 60 days. When they did, they said, they would argue that the court has no jurisdiction over the former Panamaian strongman and they would seek secret intelligence documents relevant to the case. +Mr. Kollin said the defense did not ask for a bail hearing because it would have been fruitless. 'It would be incompetent for us to request a bail hearing when we obviously know the anwswer to the question,' he said. +General Noriega, Mr. Kollin added, has taken a serious interest in plotting defense strategy and is in good spirits.

Manuel Antonio Noriega hammered away at the prosecution's star witness for the second consecutive day today, accusing him of ""shaking down"" the cocaine-trafficking ring based in Medellin, Colombia, for $500,000 in bribes by ""trading on the general's name."" +The chief defense counsel, Frank Rubino, also coaxed from Floyd Carlton Caceres, General Noriega's former personal pilot, an admission that the general ""did not know the details"" of four drug flights from Colombia to Panama that Mr. Carlton had previously testified to having flown. In fact, Mr. Carlton said, General Noriega took no action to protect the cocaine shipments, limiting his role to giving his permission for them to take place. +""General Noriega was paid $150,000 in advance to do absolutely nothing?"" Mr. Rubino asked in a tone of incredulity, referring to one flight. +""That is correct, sir,"" replied Mr. Carlton, who served four years in prison after being convicted on drug charges. He now lives under an assumed identity as part of the Federal Government's witness protection program. A Very Important Witness +Because he is probably the only person who can directly link General Noriega to cocaine shipments and payoffs, Mr. Carlton is regarded as perhaps the most important witness in the trial of the deposed Panamanian dictator, who surrendered to the American authorities on Jan. 3, 1990, two weeks after United States forces invaded Panama. +Mr. Carlton maintained today, as he has in the past, that he acted as a courier, transporting bribes from the Medellin drug ring to General Noriega and asserting that all the money that the general was supposed to receive was actually delivered to him. +In Mr. Rubino's effort to discredit Mr. Carlton's account of private conversations with General Noriega and leaders of the Medellin ring, the defense lawyer had asked several times earlier if other witnesses could corroborate Mr. Carlton's account, only to be told that those witnesses were now dead or that no one else had been present. Finally, Mr. Carlton lost his patience with the lawyer's insistence on that point. +""Mr. Rubino, this was a cocaine deal,"" Mr. Carlton said, describing a bedroom meeting with General Noriega during a party at the general's beach house. ""We weren't talking about cookies here. I couldn't tell him about these things with all those people there."" Uncertainty on Flights +In the two days of cross-examination, Mr. Carlton also testified that although he had flown cocaine from Colombia to Panama he had no direct knowledge that the drugs were then flown on to the United States, a point the prosecution must establish if it hopes to convict General Noriega on 10 counts of cocaine trafficking, racketeering and money laundering. +Mr. Carlton also acknowledged that the general was unaware of a money-laundering flight he made, and became angry when he learned of it later. +Mr. Rubino was less successful in his efforts to advance his thesis that General Noriega was an unwitting accomplice in a guns-for-drugs smuggling network established with the knowledge of the Reagan Administration for the benefit of the Nicaraguan rebels who were seeking to overthrow their country's Sandinista Government. +On several occasions Federal District Judge William M. Hoeveler cut the defense lawyer short, saying, ""We needn't go into that area any further,"" or, ""Just stay away from it."" +Among the questions Mr. Rubino was not allowed to ask Mr. Carlton was, ""Did you ever fly arms at General Noriega's instruction for Col. Oliver North?"" +Mr. Carlton dropped brief but tantalizing hints of his involvement in a number of clandestine operations with political overtones. On one occasion, he acknowledged he had smuggled to left-wing guerrillas in El Salvador arms that had been bought, in Mr. Rubino's words, ""from our allies, Taiwan and Israel.""" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Bush Travels To Florida, But He Sticks To the Script +President Bush set foot in Florida today for the first time since taking office but brushed off questions about the state's role in the bitter election dispute that narrowly gave him the presidency. +'Some of the Democrats here want to keep re-voting the election, but if they would listen to America, they would find that Americans want to move forward,' Mr. Bush told reporters who raised the election controversy. +The president was touring a small home at Tyndall Air Force Base, drawing attention to his plan to improve military housing. +His narrow election victory in Florida, coupled with his loss of the popular vote nationwide, present a challenge to the president as he pushes an ambitious legislative agenda. +Presidential aides debated whether Mr. Bush should raise the 36-day election struggle in his brief visit to Florida. In the end, advisers chose to limit his remarks to the subjects of taxes and military morale. +The site of Mr. Bush's visit was far removed from the ballot-counting conflicts of South Florida. Here in the Florida Panhandle Mr. Bush outpolled former Vice President Al Gore by a healthy margin. Statewide, he won by only 537 votes, according to the final tally. +'What an honor it is to represent you all and what an honor it is to be the president of the greatest country on the face of the earth,' Mr. Bush told a large gathering of Rotary Club and Chamber of Commerce members. +The president briefly interrupted his remarks to offer a moment of silence for the American soldiers killed in Kuwait today in a training exercise. +Still, there were some reminders that not so long ago the country was unsure whether it would be Mr. Bush or Mr. Gore flying around the country in Air Force I. +Gov. Jeb Bush, a player in the election dispute and Mr. Bush's brother, gave the president a bear hug as he bounded down the steps of the plane this morning. 'The president of the United States -- that sounds good,' the governor said in introducing Mr. Bush. +Some members of the State Legislature who voted to give Florida's 25 electoral votes to Mr. Bush sat in the front row of the Marina Civic Center. +A small group of protesters outside the speech site sought to question Mr. Bush's legitimacy, but they were greatly outnumbered by the Bush backers who lined the roadway along the motorcade route. +'His so-called victory was grand theft,' said Bob P. Kunst, a supporter of Mr. Gore who was staging his 79th protest since Election Day. +Before the president arrived, Mr. Kunst stood beside two banners, a few fellow protesters and a brown dog named Cocoa. +'We're only at the beginning stages of rallying the forces nationwide,' he said. +More protesters turned out in other parts of the state, and Democrats in the Panama City area greeted Mr. Bush with a full-page advertisement in the local newspaper. +'Isn't it simply unfair to win by breaking the rules?' the Bay County Democratic Party asked Mr. Bush in an open letter. +But White House aides said that the dispute over the Florida vote had long passed, and that Mr. Bush and most of the country had moved on. +'The president believes that virtually all Americans, except the most partisan, are looking forward,' said Ari Fleischer, the White House spokesman. +At the military base, Mr. Bush stepped inside the small brick home of Donnie G. Bryant, a senior airman, and spoke of the need to renovate military housing nationwide. +'I do think we need for a troop to be able to house his family,' the president said. 'That's an important part of building morale in the military.' +Later, as Mr. Bush offered his arguments for tax cuts, he introduced two Florida lawmakers on stage with him, Representatives Joe Scarborough, a Republican, and Allen Boyd, a Democrat.

For one, the pool reporters arrived too late to cover the opening attacks. Dispatched from Washington, they arrived in Panama at 5 A.M. on Dec. 20, about four hours after the invasion began. +Another big problem was that the military did not have helicopters ready to take the journalists around Panama. +According to the report, parts of which were described by Pentagon officials, Mr. Cheney personally decided not to activate the press pool until after the evening television news on Dec. 19, which prevented the media from covering the start of the invasion. +The report says Mr. Cheney's decision reflected an 'excessive concern with secrecy.' In addition, the report says Mr. Cheney was wrong to reject a plan by public affairs officials at the United States Southern Command in Panama to organize a pool using reporters who were already in Panama, which could have enabled the press to cover the opening hours of the invasion. +In addition to criticizing Mr. Cheney, the report faults Mr. Williams's performance.

'If Noriega were to leave, we'd have good relations with the Panamanian people.' +Mr. Bush gets high marks in Washington for his handling of the crisis so far, and not just because of the natural tendency to give the new boy a break as he grapples with his first big test. He has done two of the things that people faulted Ronald Reagan for not doing by consulting closely with Congress before acting, and by seeking the counsel of the leaders of Latin American countries. +In what he has done, as distinct from what he has said, the President has also managed to avoid looking like the swaggering gringo imperialist who looms so large in the perfervid Latin imagination. The dispatch of 2,000 more American troops was a skillful bit of political minimalism, not the act of a jingo. +He may even manage to conjure a victory of sorts, especially if the foreign ministers of the Organization of American States, who are to meet in Washington on Wednesday, screw up their courage and call for the ouster of General Noriega rather than issuing a mere ritual condemnation. +But Mr. Bush is paying a price, in Panama as in Europe, for his slow start in assembling a foreign policy team. He has no special envoy for Latin America, the sort of person who might have been crisscrossing the region, building relationships in preparation for troubled times, and he has no Assistant Secretary of State for Inter-American Affairs to act as a point man. Bernard Aronson, nominated for that pivotal job, still awaits confirmation. +Now the President may be opening himself to two other dangers with his blunt talk, dangers that he might have avoided by harking back at the experiences of his predecessors. +As Sol M. Linowitz, a former ambassador to the O.A.S., remarked this week, Mr. Bush 'may have inadvertently given the impression, in encouraging an uprising, that we will support it with troops and other means if it gets into trouble.' That was the impression - incorrect, as things turned out - that the Hungarians got in 1956 from Dwight D. Eisenhower's talk about freeing the 'captive nations.' And that was the impression - also incorrect - that the Cuban rebels got in 1961 from John F. Kennedy & Company. +'We aren't going to intervene in that way, so this kind of loose talk can only create bitterness for the long term,' Mr. Linowitz said. +Ambler Moss, a former ambassador to Panama, discerned another peril in the President's eagerness to equate the problems of Panama with the person of General Noriega while ignoring the role played by all of the other corrupt, brutal, drug-dealing Panamanian officers. +'He didn't do all this by himself,' Mr. Moss said, 'so it doesn't necessarily follow that all of it would end with Noriega's departure.' +The analogy that springs to mind is that of Ngo Dinh Diem and his family in South Vietnam in 1963. If only they could be deposed, American officials said in those days, everyone could get on with winning the war. So a coup was duly staged with American complicity, and precisely nothing of significance changed. +In fact, the Panamanian problem goes much deeper than General Noriega. It may well be, as a onetime National Security Council staff member said today, that 'the solution starts with throwing him out.' What no one has figured out yet is where the solution ends - how to make sure that the others don't simply take up where he leaves off. +WASHINGTON TALK" +False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Noriega Co-defendant Guilty +A co-defendant of Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega pleaded guilty to drug charges today and agreed to testify against the former Panamanian leader at his own drug trial this summer. +The 29-year-old defendant, Amet Paredes, the son of a former prominent general in Panama, pleaded guilty before Federal District Judge William M.

Manuel Antonio Noriega for his permission to ship 20 tons of cocaine to the United States from Panama, a former Panamanian diplomat who says he was a go-between in the deal testified here today. +The witness was Ricardo Bilonick, who has admitted supervising the cocaine shipments aboard an airline he owned in partnership with Colombian drug traffickers. He also said today that Pablo Escobar, leader of one of the most powerful arms of the cartel, once boasted to him that when General Noriega flew to the United States on an official visit late in 1983 he did so aboard a plane ""loaded with cocaine."" +Previous witnesses in the trial of General Noriega, who has been charged with 10 counts of cocaine trafficking, racketeering and money laundering, have already testified that Mr. Escobar owned the plane, a Lear jet, that brought Mr. Noriega to the United States, and that the general knew of the plane's ownership at the time. Mr. Bilonick said today that he did not know if General Noriega was ever aware that cocaine had been packed into secret compartments installed in the plane on Mr. Escobar's order. Direct Tie to Shipments +Mr. Bilonick is the first witness in the trial, now in its third month, to tie the general directly to cocaine shipments to the United States. The $10 million in bribes that he says were paid to the deposed Panamanian leader eclipses all the other illegal payments that have been mentioned by the 25 witnesses who preceded him on the stand. +The United States visit to which Mr. Bilonick referred began Nov. 14, 1983, when General Noriega left Panama with a group of Panamanian officials and an American military escort. The general flew first to Miami and then to Washington, where he met with William J. Casey, who was then the Director of Central Intelligence; Caspar W. Weinberger, the Secretary of Defense, and officials of the State Department and the National Security Council. He then returned to Panama via Las Vegas and Miami. +Mr. Bilonick, who surrendered to the American authorities in August as part of a plea agreement, provided no further details about Mr. Escobar's account, which appears to conflict with statements made by other witnesses in the case. Steven Kalish, a convicted marijuana smuggler who testified this month that he was the general's partner in another trafficking scheme, also said he lent a Lear Jet to General Noriega for the Washington visit. +But a Panamanian law-enforcement official, reached by telephone today, said the general and his group traveled to Washington on more than one plane. He said records in Panama did not indicate whether the Noriega party had landed at Andrews Air Force Base or National Airport, and he said that if any cocaine was aboard one of the planes it would probably have been removed in Miami. +In other testimony, Mr. Bilonick said he supervised 19 cocaine flights to the United States from Panama in 1983 and 1984, with cargoes from 1,100 pounds to more than a ton. The General received a bribe of $500,000 ""every time, every flight,"" he said, to allow the cocaine to be flown on planes owned by Inair, a small commuter and cargo airline that Mr. Bilonick operated, with Mr. Escobar as his silent partner. +The payments to General Noriega were intended, Mr. Bilonick testified, to ""buy a secure landing strip, secure transit through the streets, roads and highways of Panama and secure entry to the airport."" Most of all, the Colombians were paying for ""complete silence in Panama,"" he said. +Usually, Mr. Bilonick said, the cocaine was flown to Florida from Panama in large containers in which the cocaine was surrounded by freezers, irons, television sets or other appliances. In Miami, the cocaine was extracted from the containers. +When one outgoing shipment was mistakenly confiscated by customs officials at Panama's main airport, Mr. Bilonick testified, the head of the national police told cartel representatives they would ""have to pay another $500,000 to Noriega"" to recover it. That done, he said, blue jeans were substituted for the seized cargo of cocaine in an operation supervised by officers of Panama's military intelligence. +In May 1984, Mr. Bilonick said, Mr. Escobar ""asked me whether Inair could also fly to Nicaragua."" Mr. Bilonick said Mr. Escobar went on to say that ""he had reached a similar agreement with the Sandinistas, the introduction having been made by General Noriega."" +Earlier in the trial, a Panamanian pilot, Floyd Carlton, testified that he had flown to the Nicaraguan capital to deliver a large amount of cash to Mr. Escobar, who was hiding there. +Despite the large bribes paid to General Noriega, he wanted more for his acquiescence, Mr. Bilonick testified. He recalled a party held in honor of the general's birthday in 1984.

Manuel Antonio Noriega was involved in drug trafficking, according to Reagan Administration officials. +Vice President Bush was told nearly three years ago by the American Ambassador to Panama of allegations that Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega was involved in drug trafficking, according to Reagan Administration officials. +Mr. Bush has said repeatedly that he knew of no clear evidence that the Panamanian leader was involved in drugs until this February, when General Noriega was indicted on drug traficking charges by two Florida grand juries. +At a campaign stop Thursday in Los Angeles he went further. After saying that the United States had prosecuted General Noriega as soon as it had 'clear, definable' evidence, Mr. Bush was asked whether he had ever been told of 'reports' of General Noriega's drug ties before the indictment. 'Not that I was ever aware of,' he replied. Cables and Staff Memo +However, in December 1985 Mr. Bush, who has led President Reagan's efforts to slow the flow of drugs into0the United States, met in Washington with a strong Administration critic of General Noriega, Edward Everett Briggs, then the Ambassador to Panama. +In the weeks before the meeting, Mr. Briggs had cabled the State Department recounting allegations of General Noriega's drug involvement and his possible role in the murder of Dr. Hugo Spadafora, a political opponent. +Although the Vice President said he did not see or hear of the cables, the Administration officials, in responding to reporters' questions, said the ambassador related the substance of those dispatches to Mr. Bush in the December meeting. A previously undisclosed memorandum that Bush aides prepared for the Vice President before the meeting said that its purpose was to 'discuss U.S. relations with Panama and narcotics matters.' +At the time, other senior officials were already concerned about General Noriega's activities. Six days before the meeting, Vice Adm. John M. Poindexter, then the national security adviser, went to Panama and sharply warned General Noriega about the country's official drug corruption, according to present and former officials. Classified Study Cited +In addition, the Poindexter mission, along with evidence collected by American intelligence agencies of General Noriega's involvement in drug activities, were reported seven months later in The New York Times. The June 1986 article cited a highly classified Defense Intelligence Agency study that concluded that General Noriega was involved in drug activities. +Craig Fuller, the Vice President's chief of staff, said in an interview on Friday that Mr, Bush did not know Mr. Poindexter was making the trip to Panama. The Vice President is one of four statutory members of the National Security Council, a group for whom the National Security Adviser and his staff work. +Asked about Mr. Bush's saying he was not aware of any 'reports' that General Noriega might be involved in drug trafficking, Mr. Fuller said Friday: 'I don't think the Vice President is trying to suggest that he didn't know that Panama had a narcotics problem and that Noriega, as a key player in Panama, might have had some involvement. What he's really saying is that certain knowledge didn't come until after the indictment of Noriega.' +Asked why the Vice President had not clarified this distinction earlier, Mr. Fuller said that Mr. Bush had not been asked to do so. 'I am perfectly comfortable saying he had an awareness of the nature of some of the problems and an awareness Noriega might have been associated. The issue is the point at which that became certain.' +The Noriega issue could play a role in the fall election campaign. Both Gov. Michael S. Dukakis and the Rev. Jesse Jackson, the potential Democratic opponents to Mr. Bush, have raised questions about how much the Vice President knew of allegations about General Noriega's activities, particularly accusations that he was involved in drugs. In addition, Mr. Bush has stressed that his experience in foreign policy matters is among his chief selling points as a candidate. +Mr. Briggs, now the United States Ambassador to Honduras, pushed unsuccessfully in late 1985 for a change in American policy toward General Noriega, many Administration officials said. Inside the Government he was one of the Administration's earliest and most vocal critics of the Panamanian leader. A spokesman for the Ambassador, reached in Honduras, said Mr. Briggs declined to comment on the meeting with Mr. Bush. 'Disturbing Events' Noted +The memorandum outlining that meeting that had been prepared in advance for the Vice President was released by Mr. Bush's staff in response to a request from reporters. The longest section of the memo, labeled 'background,' said: 'There have been disturbing events in Panama of late and Ambassador Briggs, a long-term observer of the scene, will be in a good position to interpret them to you. Of particular interest will be: political developments following the resignation of President Barletta - drug interdiction.' Nicholas Ardito Barletta resigned as president of Panama in 1985 after General Noriega arrested him and threatened his family. +Mr. Fuller said Mr. Bush did not recall whether the issue of General Noriega's role in the drug problems of Panama had been mentioned at the Dec. 16, 1985, meeting with Ambassador Briggs. He said the Vice President would not have been surprised if it had been discussed because he and his staff were aware at the time of unconfirmed allegations that General Noriega was involved in corruption and drug dealing. +Mr. Fuller said that the briefing memo suggested to him and the Vice President that drugs would have been discussed in the context of Panama's role in drug interdiction. But he added that he had no recollection at all of the meeting, which the briefing memo said he was scheduled to attend. +The Vice President has also said that he never saw or was told of the cables sent by Ambassador Briggs. Mr. Bush said in Cincinnati a week ago: 'You hear all kinds of allegations from the former ambassador that a cable was sent to the White House. I asked around and nobody ever saw it. I didn't and these allegations are pure politics.' +Speaking of General Noriega, Mr. Bush continued, 'There are a lot of people around the world who don't pass the perfection saliva test. But in terms of did we know he was smuggling drugs - no.' +Two former White House officials and a former senior State Department official said they had read the cables. 'They were extremely strong.' recalled one of these officials. 'They said the United States should take action against this man, that this was a man who had a history of all these things: drug dealing, gun running, technology transfer, and now he's murdered one of his opponents and nobody seems to be interested.' Actions Viewed as Threat +Mr. Briggs's ire at that time was provoked by General Noriega's toppling of Mr. Barletta, present and former officials said. Administration officials said that Mr. Briggs viewed General Noriega's actions as a threat to the Reagan Administration's policy of promoting democracy in Central America. +More information about the Vice President's role in Panama policy became publicly available recently when Lieut. Col. Samuel J. Watson 3d and Donald Gregg, Mr. Bush's two senior foreign policy advisers, turned over to a Federal court several years of their calendars and telephone logs. They did so in response to a civil lawsuit brought by the Christic Institute, a Washington-based group that charges the Iran-contra affair is part of a long-running racketeering conspiracy. +Mr. Fuller said that the Vice President had no illusions about the character of General Noriega. 'He's been very realistic that there's a dark side to him, that this was not somebody who has ever been viewed as a world class leader.' +A review of Mr. Bush's lengthy government career shows there have been several occasions in which the Vice President was confronted with evidence of General Noriega's misconduct. +In 1976, when Mr. Bush was Director of Central Intelligence, American officials learned that General Noriega had recruited several American Army sergeants as spies and was buying highly sensitive material from them, including reels of tape from American eavesdropping equipment. +The C.I.A. continued to use General Noriega as a source of information on Cuba and elsewhere after this incident, the officials said. +Mr. Fuller said that Mr. Bush would not discuss any matters that arose during his one-year tenure at the C.I.A., even though a declassified account of the security breach had been made public in 1978 in a report by the Senate Intelligence Committee. The C.I.A. also had no comment. +Correction: May 10, 1988, Tuesday, Late City Final Edition +He is Everett Ellis Briggs.

Scott Fairchild, director of clinical psychology at Fort Bragg's Womack Army Community Hospital. 'We realize that there will be the whole range of stresses and tolerance to the stresses and that there will be those who stuff those emotions without dealing with them. But our brains bring them back to us and, like the commercial says, 'Pay me now or pay me later.' ' +The effort, which will eventually be offered to nearly 6,000 soldiers at Fort Bragg and their families, has been applauded by psychiatrists and clinicians. +Dr. Harry Holloway, chairman of the psychiatry department at the Defense Department's Uniformed Services University of Health Sciences in Bethesda, Md., said an effort like the one at Fort Bragg was long overdue. +Small Counseling Teams +'To those Vietnam-era vets who question doing this now because Panama seemed so much milder, my answer to them is: 'So we screwed up with you guys. Why should we continue to screw up?' ' said Dr. Holloway, who treated Vietnam combat veterans. +Major Fairchild said the counseling at Fort Bragg involved small trained teams that often included an enlisted man, an officer and a chaplain or mental health specialist. When the troops returned to Fort Bragg after the invasion of Panama on Dec. 20, team members joined them as they took part in routine activities on the base, rather than meet them in hospitals or auditoriums. The team members talked informally with the soldiers about what happened to them and what they saw. +Major Fairchild said the hope was to get the soldiers to talk about their experiences among themselves as well because 'the best healing goes on right there in the unit and in small groups.' +Dr. Tom Williams, executive director of the Post Trauma Treatment Center at Centennial Peaks Hospital in Boulder, Colo., who served as a consultant in Fort Bragg's counseling program, said many soldiers at Fort Bragg told him of guilt about the fate of civilians and of the powerlessness they felt as they watched members of the Dignity Battalions loyal to Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega hack the civilians with machetes when they tried to reach sectors controlled by the Americans. +Twenty-three members of the armed forces and three American civilians were killed, and 324 military members were wounded. Military spokesmen say 314 Panamanian military members were killed and 124 wounded. The count of Panamanian civilians killed or injured in the invasion has not yet been officially determined. +Soldier's Nightmare Recalled +One of the first counseling sessions, which focused on the wounded, alerted Major Fairchild to a 19-year-old soldier with a leg wound who seemed sullen and sad. The clinical psychologist said he looked in on the soldier one night and found him in the midst of a nightmare. After gently waking him, Major Fairchild said the soldier told him of dreaming of intense combat with the sounds of explosions and helicopters and at first feeling invincible and then realizing that he could not return fire because he could not see his adversaries. +'The idea was to bring him back to the present, let him know that this was normal and it was all right to talk about,' Major Fairchild said. 'As we were talking we heard a helicopter taking off, and he realized that it was hearing the sound of the helicopter's landing that helped trigger his dream. He saw that it was normal and separated out what was real and what wasn't.' +Before the Vietnam War, what is now called post-traumatic stress disorder was known as 'shell shock' or 'battle fatigue.' In 1921 Freud wrote about the phenomenon, calling it 'war neurosis.' +Dr. Charles Marmar, associate professor of psychiatry at the University of California at San Francisco, who is director of the stress disorder program at that city's Veterans Affairs Medical Center, said that Incidence of Combat Stress It was only in 1980 that the American Psychiatric Association recognized the existence of a specific condition produced by combat and termed it post- traumatic stress disorder, said Dr. Arthur Blank, director of Vietnam veterans' outreach programs for the Department of Veterans Affairs. +At that time the Veterans Administration began offering counseling specifically aimed at treating the disorder and was able to provide disability benefits for those diagnosed as suffering from it. Before that, according to Dr. Emil Tanay, professor of psychiatry at Wayne State University in Detroit and a former consultant to the Veterans Administration, veterans had to be diagnosed as schizophrenic to be eligible for benefits. +Until the program at Fort Bragg, the military has not offered counseling to soldiers right after they engaged in combat. +Many experts on post-traumatic stress disorder said it was still too early to tell whether debriefing approaches like those used at Fort Bragg worked well in preventing more serious symptoms. +'I don't want to make too much of this because trauma and the potential of trauma is not removed by this, nor are the memories turned into vanilla ice cream,' Dr. Holloway said. 'The horribleness of some experiences will still be there, but they will become comprehensible for some and there is some good news in that.' +Dr. Holloway, who was involved in approving the Fort Bragg effort, and others said that there were no indications that soldiers who had gone to Panama were any more susceptible to the disorder than other combat veterans. #27,000 Troops Involved The military action in Panama, which involved 27,000 troops, was the largest military action by the United States since the Vietnam War. +On the surface, the extent of casualties and the duration of combat in Panama pale next to combat in Vietnam, the Korean War and World War II. Most soldiers stationed at Fort Bragg were in Panama no longer than two weeks; the average Vietnam veteran had 300 'combat days,' military officials say. +But Dr. Williams said studies showed that 'how long the shooting lasts' made little difference in the potential for post-traumatic stress syndrome in those who had particularly 'horrendous experiences.' Of course, the longer a soldier serves in combat the more likely he is to encounter such an experience. +The Panama invasion provided other differences that would probably lower the actual numbers and severity of 'psychological casualties,' said Dr. Williams, who served two tours of duty in Vietnam. +'For one thing this was, unlike Vietnam, a popular action,' he said. 'That makes a difference in how they feel about it afterward. It was a highly defined operation with a clear objective, and they knew when they had won. That was not the case in Vietnam, which was a jungle war where there were no clear lines.' +But he said, and others agreed, that some experiences had undoubtedly been so horrible that they would necessarily lead to severe problems. +Dr. Blank said studies suggest that as many as 15 percent of the 3.1 million American soldiers who served in Vietnam suffer from the disorder. +Support From Base Commander +The sessions at Fort Bragg have focused so far on medical units, personnel who deal with the dead and some combat units. Major Fairchild said that because of strong support for the effort from Lieut. Gen. Carl W. Stiner, the commanding officer at Fort Bragg, requests for the sessions were coming in from scores of commanders of other units involved in the fighting, as well as from support units. +So far only a few sessions have been held as an option for the soldiers' families, but they had been well attended, Major Fairchild said. +Commanders' sensitivity to the subtle psychology and issues involved in combat stress was one of the keys to instituting the Fort Bragg program, both Dr. Williams and Major Fairchild said. +'The process actually began with General Stiner's decision to have the returning troops parachute triumphantly back to Fort Bragg,' Dr. Williams said, referring to a parachute jump by nearly 2,000 members of the 82d Airborne Division on Jan. 12. 'They weren't coming in through the back door, and that was important.'" +False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Noriega's Lawyers Say He Aided Anti-Drug Effort +Lawyers for Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega said today that documents seized by the United States armed forces in the invasion of Panama would show that the former dictator helped law-enforcement authorities in combating drug trafficking. +At a hearing in Federal court today, defense lawyers also asked for other documents that they asserted would show evidence of assassination plots by unidentified Government agencies against General Noriega and his predecessor, Gen. Omar Torrijos Herrera, whose death in a plane crash led to General Noriega's rise to power. +After the hearing, Frank A. Rubino, the General's lead counsel, declined to elaborate on his assertions about the contents of the documents and he said he would not discuss the assassination attempts because one of the documents has been classified as top secret by the Government. Federal agents have been barred by executive orders since the 1970's from taking part in or recommending the assassination of officials of rival governments. The order has been reissued by each President beginning with Gerald R. Ford. +Mr. Rubino said in the hearing, before Federal District Judge William M. Hoeveler, that the defense needed access to the tons of documents under the Government's control. +General Noriega is accused of conspiring with Colombian cocaine dealers in the illegal shipment of drugs to the United States. +Prosecutors said they would resist efforts by the defense to obtain many of the documents because, they said, the papers include classified information. +Many documents requested by the defense are files assembled by Mr. Rubino in the period after General Noriega was indicted, in February 1988, but before the invasion, in December 1989. ""Not only are these the General's files but also my files,"" Mr. Rubino told Judge Hoeveler. ""I didn't know we were going to have an invasion or I would have brought them back. We are not asking for secret documents in Washington. We are asking for access to our documents."" Emerging Legal Battle +Today's hearing provided the first glimpse into the legal battle over classified information that is getting underway in preparation for the General's trial, scheduled to begin July 22. Defense lawyers have long contended that the Government has been unwilling to turn over documents that are embarrassing to the United States. +If the defense succeeds in convincing Judge Hoeveler that the documents must be introduced as evidence in order to assure a fair trial for the General, the Government could be forced to disclose the secret material or face the prospect of dropping some of the drug charges against him. +Another file that the defense is seeking includes General Noriega's notes of previously disclosed meetings he held with President Bush, when he was Vice President, and two former officials in Panama, Gen. John R. Galvin, who was commander of United States forces in Central America, and Ambler Moss, who was Ambassador to Panama. +In court today as Mr. Rubino began cataloguing the documents the defense is requesting, the prosecutor who handles classified information immediately raised a number of objections. +""I move to have the hearing closed,"" said James McAdams, an assistant United States Attorney, who said the discussion violated the Classified Information Procedures Act, which regulates the use of secret information in criminal trials. 'Area That Presents Problems' +Judge Hoeveler, who did not rule on any of the defense requests for documents, agreed with the prosecutor. ""We may be dipping into an area that presents problems,"" he said. +While the Government objects to handing over many of the files seized in the invasion, Michael P. Sullivan, lead prosecutor, said today that the Government has already provided the defense with more than 7,000 pages of material. +The assertions by defense lawyers at the hearing suggested how their strategy is designed to show that the General's drug trafficking activities were, at least in part, an effort to help law enforcement authorities battle the Colombian cocaine traffickers." +False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Examiner's Murder Case Becomes a Tangled Tale +As the medical examiner here for more than 10 years, Dr. William Sybers had to look into every unexpected, unexplained or violent death. Three or four times a week, Dr. Sybers said, he had an appointment with a corpse. +Homicides were easy. 'Most of them are shots or knife wounds,' he said, 'and the cause of death is pretty obvious.' +In 1991, Dr. Sybers's wife, Kay, died mysteriously at their home here. She was 52 years old, and she had needle marks in her arm. Her death was not one of the easy ones. +Some people in this tourist town in the Florida Panhandle had theories, though, most of them linked to an affair Dr. Sybers began a few months before his wife died. They say that a rich philandering doctor who could have been facing an expensive divorce had both the motive and the means for killing his wife. +That made sense to a special prosecutor, Harry Shorstein, who pursued Dr. Sybers for five years before bringing him to trial on a murder charge. In March 2001, a jury sided with Mr. Shorstein, accepting medical testimony from an expert witness that Dr. Sybers had killed his wife with a sudden-death poison called succinylcholine. The next month he was sentenced to life in prison. +But two years later, the case has turned into a tangle of twists and reversals that demonstrate how -- despite expert scientific testimony, a relentless prosecution and an adulterous suspect with a shaky alibi -- things may not be what they seem. +An appeals court reversed Dr. Sybers's conviction in February, saying the evidence about the poison was based on testing too novel to be accepted science. The court ordered a new trial. Instead, Dr. Sybers pleaded guilty to manslaughter in May, in exchange for a sentence of the time he had served, two years. +In early August, Mr. Shorstein notified the trial judge that his evidence had not only been novel but wrong. 'Though believed to be accurate at the time of the testimony,' he wrote, the evidence 'can no longer be relied upon.' +On Aug. 29, Gov. Jeb Bush appointed another special prosecutor, this one to assist a grand jury investigating Mr. Shorstein's conduct in the Sybers case. +Mr. Shorstein, who is the state attorney in Jacksonville, 240 miles from here, said in a recent interview that the case against Dr. Sybers was not about the particular poison so much as the assumption of risk. 'If you're going to have a mistress,' he said, 'you better hope your wife doesn't die of unexplained causes with two syringe marks in her arm.' +Judy Ray Sybers was the other woman and is now Dr. Sybers's wife. +'Bill and I had an affair,' she said. 'That I will not deny. But an adulterer is not a murderer.' +On Aug. 6, flawed evidence from the same expert witness caused a prosecutor in Columbia, Mo., to free Richard Allen Williams, a nurse who had been charged with capital murder, accused of poisoning 10 patients in a veterans hospital there with succinylcholine in 1992. Mr. Williams spent 14 months in jail awaiting trial and could have faced the death penalty if convicted. +Mr. Shorstein denies any wrongdoing, but he did not sound happy about the developments of the last several weeks. +'It's bad for me,' he said. 'I've got an election next year. But I am relatively certain that nothing will come of it because the prosecutor the governor has appointed is an honest prosecutor.' +John Daniel, who defended Dr. Sybers at his trial, talked about the case in his office overlooking the Massalina Bayou. Mr. Daniel said Mr. Shorstein had relied on 'bogus, junk, voodoo science' in claiming to find residue of a particular poison in Mrs. Sybers's corpse. +The Sybers case was different, he said, from the sort of thing he usually handles, particularly in the early summer. 'Spring break down here,' he said, 'is a criminal defense lawyer's dream.' +He said he was still baffled by Mr. Shorstein's conduct in the Sybers case. Three prosecutors had declined to pursue it before Gov. Lawton Chiles appointed Mr. Shorstein to have another look in 1995. The Syberses' children and Kay Sybers's family, including her mother and siblings, all opposed the prosecution. +Dr. Sybers maintained that the syringe marks were on his wife's arm because he drew blood for tests on the morning she died. She had complained of headaches, allergies and chest pains, he said. His daughter, Jennifer, testified that he often drew blood from family members for tests. Dr. Sybers said he threw the syringe into a trash bin across the street. It was never recovered. +Nor did he, citing his wife's wishes, call for an autopsy when she died. Instead, he sent her body to a funeral home that same morning, and her body was promptly embalmed. +In a recent telephone interview from his home in Vancouver, British Columbia, Dr. Sybers, now 70, said he had been distraught that day and not thinking clearly. +'If I had truly killed my wife,' he said. 'I would have ordered a cremation.' +The scientist who said he had discovered evidence of poisoning in the two cases was Dr. Kevin Ballard, the director of research development at National Medical Services, a Pennsylvania laboratory. In the cases of Dr. Sybers and Mr. Williams, he said he had found succinylmonocholine, the chemical succinylcholine breaks down into, in the corpses he examined. Dr. Ballard said only poisoning could account for the presence of the chemical. +Recent retesting by the Pennsylvania laboratory and the Federal Bureau of Investigation showed that the chemical is present in many corpses. In a letter to prosecutors last month, Dr. Ballard said he had been wrong to assume that the chemical 'is necessarily a foreign substance, that it does not occur naturally in tissues from decedents.' +Neither Dr. Ballard nor a spokesman for the laboratory returned calls seeking comment. +Nathan Z. Dershowitz, a New York lawyer who represented Dr. Sybers in his appeal, said evidence is routinely misused in criminal trials. +'The core problem,' Mr. Dershowitz said, 'is that jurors will simply accept the opinion of a scientific expert who is a good witness regardless of whether the substance of what they are saying makes any sense.' +Mr. Daniel, for his part, said he was eager to assist the grand jury investigating his former adversary. +'He needs a dose of his own medicine,' Mr. Daniel said. 'No pun intended.' +Mr. Shorstein replied. +'You can accuse me, if you want, of a crime punishable by life in prison, which is what you get for perjury in a capital case,' he said. 'But you really should have some evidence.' +Mr. Shorstein said he remained convinced that Dr. Sybers poisoned his wife with something that was meant to be hard to detect. +'I could retry him even without the science,' he said." +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,"Efficiency Makes A Cameo +IN a sport gone mad with noise and improvisation and tediousness, it is always refreshing to see good old-fashioned competence at the ballpark. +There they were, side by side, two masters of the mound, working fast, working expertly, Ramiro Mendoza and Dan Cunningham, reliever and groundskeeper. +With drizzle falling, dark clouds scudding in from the northwest, rain delay looming ominously, separate team planes waiting at the airport, suppers being planned at home for fans, the scene was set for yet another long day's journey into night. +But then sanity took over yesterday at Yankee Stadium. Cunningham, the head groundskeeper, dumped bright beige sand on the damp, dark mound and deftly distributed it with a wooden rake. +Cunningham surely knew that the modern time-study men, the umpires who are under pressure to move these unwieldy games along, would give him precious few seconds to apply his art. +Feet dancing as he circled the mound, Cunningham applied the rake with long and loving strokes, the most graceful and purposeful use of an elongated device since I saw Rafael Kubelik conduct the New York Philharmonic many years ago. I think it was Smetana's 'Ma Vlast,' but don't hold me to it. I just remember the old master at work. +Yesterday, while another master plied the rake, Mendoza stood behind the mound, flipping the ball with his hand, a model of poise and patience. 'Tranquilo,' Mendoza agreed later. +Mendoza was more than calm. He was a veritable labor-saving device in a striped uniform. He needed only nine pitches in the bullpen to get warmed up and only 20 more pitches to deliver seven outs, surely a great ratio in these days of the dawdlers. +In the middle of a sloppy 14-8 victory by the Yankees over the Tigers, Mendoza helped keep the game down to 3 hours 13 minutes, which these days is considered normal. +Mendoza also helped keep his manager tranquilo. Before the game, Joe Torre talked about the changes in his sport since he came along in the early 60's. +Noise is one change. The manic marketers of baseball are doing their very best to destroy the hearing and the thinking of every poor dolt who comes to the ballpark without earplugs. +'We got it turned down a little bit,' Torre said, nodding at the sadistic speakers behind the outfield. 'But it's everywhere. It's right next to you when you stop for a red light.' +A second change is collegiality. Torre said teams used to 'hate each other,' but that has changed because players have 'the same agents' and 'move around more.' He didn't deplore the civility. He just said it was different. +A third change is that in the old days, umpires had honest differences in their strike zones, but when Richie Phillips was running their association, they went haywire. +'I've had umpires tell our players they were calling strikes two balls off the plate,' Torre said, meaning the width of two baseballs. 'I couldn't believe it.' +Now Major League Baseball is attempting to get umpires on the same page by clumsily monitoring pitch counts. Woe to the umpire who gets stuck in a game full of wild pitchers. Meanwhile, the games still lumber along. +A fourth change, Torre said, is that pitchers used to throw fastballs for strikes. 'They don't challenge people as much,' he lamented. +His words came to mind in the fifth inning when the rookie Randy Keisler self-destructed with a 4-1 lead. He had a good shot at a victory with three more outs, but couldn't come close. +'He caught me off guard,' Torre said. +While hits rocketed all over, Torre reluctantly had to goose up the bullpen earlier than anticipated. Mendoza, who has had arm problems and is not gaited for the long haul, started to warm up. Nine pitches later, he was ready. +'That look in his eye is so comforting,' Torre said later. 'He tells you he's all right.' +Mendoza coaxed a double play from his first batter, Wendell Magee. He gave up a harmless single in the sixth. Torre does not want to overwork Mendoza, but the quiet man from Panama was ready for more in the seventh -- as soon as Maestro Cunningham yielded the mound. Feet secure on the new sand, Mendoza got two more outs before Torre finally went out and got him. +'He was unreal,' the manager said. +The Yankees got slipshod again as soon as Mendoza was gone, but they survived for their fifth straight victory. Mendoza was the winning pitcher. The groundskeeper deserved a save for his fast hands and his footwork. +Sports of The Times" +False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Noriega Lawyer Derides U.S. Case in Closing +His voice dripping with sarcasm, the chief lawyer for Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega today derided the drug-trafficking, money-laundering and racketeering charges against the deposed Panamanian leader as a crude political vendetta built on the dubious testimony of ""admitted liars and convicted felons."" +""This indictment stinks,"" the main defense lawyer, Frank A. Rubino, told jurors during the second day of closing arguments in the trial that began last September. ""It stinks like a dead fish. It smells from here to Washington."" +Mr. Rubino began the defense summation, which is scheduled to continue Thursday, by criticizing the prosecution's description of General Noriega as a ""classic military dictator."" As he spoke, his client, who was arrested after the United States invaded his country in December 1989, sat expressionless on the other side of the room dressed in his military uniform. +""Is that a crime in the United States?"" Mr. Rubino asked. ""Is that what this indictment is about?"" He later acknowledged that subordinates of General Noriega had smuggled weapons to guerrilla forces hostile to the United States, but argued that they had every right to do so. +""I don't deny that one bit,"" he said of arms deals with left-wing guerrilla groups. ""After all, Panama is an independent, sovereign nation. Who they deliver arms to is their affair."" +The case against General Noriega, Mr. Rubino said, was based entirely on the theory that ""if you throw enough mud against a wall, some of it will stick."" But he added that there were ""too darn many things in this case that just don't make sense,"" including contradictory testimony by prosecution witnesses and witnesses whose motives were questionable at best. +Prosecutors want ""you to crank up your Ouija boards,"" Mr. Rubino said, to make sense of what he described as gaping holes in their case. But he added: ""It is not your job. The burden of proof is with the Government."" Disagreement Among Jurors +Mr. Rubino pointed out to jurors that prosecution witnesses had disagreed about whether bribes to General Noriega were paid in shoeboxes or envelopes and whether such payments were made at the airport or military headquarters. Two important witnesses, he also said, could not even agree about what airports and airstrips the Medellin cartel was allowed to use to shipcocaine to the United States. +In sharp contrast to the quiet, conversational tone used by Myles Malman, the Assistant United States Attorney who made the Government's closing argument of five and a half hours, which concluded earlier today, Mr. Rubino was often theatrical. He mocked the prosecution case as illogical and made emotional appeals to the jury, which has one Hispanic member, along with nine blacks and two whites. At one point he even invoked the homeless and the urban poor to support his argument that Government money had been misspent to build a case against his client. +But Mr. Rubino reserved most of his scorn for the witnesses the prosecution used in three months of testimony. Again and again, he reminded jurors that many of those who took the stand against General Noriega were convicted drug dealers who were testifying in the hope of receiving reduced sentences or being allowed to keep profits earned from drug smuggling. +""They are the scum of the earth,"" Mr. Rubino said indignantly of a score of prosecution witnesses whose records he reviewed on a series of charts. ""These people are disgusting,"" he said, asking, ""What kind of morals do these people have?"" +Mr. Rubino was particularly critical of the Government's reliance on the testimony of Carlos Lehder Rivas, a former leader of the Medellin cocaine cartel who testified in November that General Noriega had given the Colombian drug group free run of Panama in exchange for large payoffs.

Temporary Effect of Raid +The earlier raid was at first hailed as a major breakthrough in halting Washington's cocaine epidemic, one of the worst in the nation and the subject of not only local police action but also action by numerous Federal police agences. But within days of the raid, cocaine was as plentiful on the city's streets as ever, and narcotics agents said the best hope was that the raid would serve notice that there would be more raids, and that eventually the police would gain the upper hand. +The Federal agents said the two major figures in the organization raided today were Marcos Loinas Anderson and Gabriel Ruperto Davis-Munoz, both Panamanian nationals living in the Washington area who were arrested on drug-trafficking charges. +The agents said it appeared that the organization, which was subjected to electronic surveillance, got its cocaine in Colombia, shipped it through Panama and then moved it to Washington with the help of Panamanian and Jamaican immigrants.

Manuel Antonio Noriega has ruled that the deposed Panamanian dictator will not be allowed to introduce discussions he had with George Bush as evidence in an important aspect of the case. +But the judge, William M. Hoeveler, has said he will permit General Noriega's lawyers to ""introduce evidence of an ongoing relationship with Fidel Castro"" in which the Panamanian acted on behalf of the United States. +In a court order issued a month ago but made public only today, Judge Hoeveler ruled that classified records of a 1983 meeting between General Noriega and Mr. Bush, who was then Vice President, were ""irrelevant"" to the charges that Panama's former ruler faces here. +General Noriega went on trial Thursday on 10 counts of drug trafficking, money laundering and racketeering. If he is convicted on all of the charges General Noriega could face up to 140 years in prison. +Defense lawyers have argued that while the general may have permitted shipments of arms and drugs through Panama, he did so at the request of the United States Government. +According to the heavily censored document made public today, the defense lawyers are trying ""to prove U.S. Government involvement in the importation of narcotics to the United States in connection with"" efforts to supply Nicaraguan rebels, or contras, seeking to overthrow the left-wing Sandinista regime. +""Though defense counsel argue that this information concerns the 'contra pipeline' defense, there is nothing in the notice provided which suggests that these events have any connection to contra operations,"" Judge Hoeveler wrote of General Noriega's November 1983 visit to Washington and his meeting one month later in Panama with Mr. Bush. ""The defense will therefore be precluded from raising these matters at trial."" +But the judge also ruled that the Central Intelligence Agency must give General Noriega's lawyers any information indicating that the agency was working secretly with drug traffickers to supply the contras. Intermediary Role Claimed +""Evidence that persons alleged to have engaged in narcotics activities with Noriega were employed by the C.I.A. relative to contra operations appears to be important to Noriega's defense,"" he wrote. +In addition, Judge Hoeveler said he would allow the defense to use evidence that General Noriega ""regularly acted as an intermediary between the United States and Cuba, often meeting with"" Mr. Castro, the Cuban leader,""at the behest or with the approval of the United States."" +General Noriega has acknowledged several such meetings, which he has said dealt with foreign policy issues, including aspects of Cuban-American relations. +One of the counts against the former Panamanian dictator involves a meeting in Havana in July 1984, when Mr. Castro is said to have mediated a dispute between General Noriega and leaders of a cocaine-trafficking ring in Medellin, Colombia. The Noriega defense team has argued that if only the 1984 visit is considered, it ""will stick out as an isolated event with sinister overtones."" Judge Hoeveler agreed. +""Within certain limits, Noriega must be permitted to introduce evidence of an ongoing relationship with Castro which sometimes inured to the benefit of the United States,"" the judge wrote.

Manuel Antonio Noriega promised to act as ""a godfather"" who would protect the Medellin ring's cocaine-manufacturing and money-laundering operations in Panama, a former business associate of the deposed Panamanian dictator testified today. +Ending three days of testimony here, the witness, Enrique Pretelt, a Panamanian jewelry store owner and pilot who was General Noriega's favorite drinking and partying companion for nearly 20 years, also said he and the general went into business with an American drug smuggler who asked their permission to use Panama as a transshipment point for a 400,000 pound load of marijuana bound for the United States. +Mr. Pretelt, now serving a prison sentence in Florida after pleading guilty to involvement in the marijuana-smuggling scheme, said the American drug trafficker, Steven Kalish, first approached him late in 1983 about laundering $80 million in drug profits in Panama. When he told General Noriega about the proposal, Mr. Pretelt said, the general was delighted. +""The general told me he thought this gringo was going to be a good one,"" Mr. Pretelt testified. He said that when he speculated that so large an amount of money could only come from drug trafficking, General Noriega replied: ""That's O.K. So what?"" He later invited Mr. Kalish to join him and Mr. Pretelt in a deal to buy aircraft for the Panamanian Air Force, Mr. Pretelt testified. Approval and Warning +Mr. Pretelt also said that early in 1984, when he sought General Noriega's approval after Mr. Kalish proposed shipping 200 tons of marijuana from Panama to the United States, assent was immediately given, with but one warning. ""Noriega said he thinks this could work, and he mentioned we have to be careful and inform him of everything we are doing,"" Mr. Pretelt testified. +The marijuana-smuggling scheme, which involved issuing false papers indicating that a Panamanian freighter had a cargo of bananas, was not carried out because Mr. Kalish was arrested in Tampa, Fla., in the summer of 1984. He later pleaded guilty to drug trafficking and racketeering charges, agreed to testify against General Noriega and was called to the witness stand this afternoon. +General Noriega, whose trial entered its third month today, has been charged with 10 counts of cocaine trafficking, racketeering and money laundering. If he is convicted of all charges, he could be sentenced to up to 140 years in prison. +The marijuana-trafficking charges are part of a separate indictment handed down in Tampa in February 1988 for which General Noriega, who surrendered early in January 1990 after American troops invaded Panama, has not yet been tried. Raid on Cocaine Lab +Mr. Pretelt said the general made his remark about serving as godfather for the drug-trafficking group based in Medellin, Colombia, to Mr. Kalish, who had been acting as intermediary in a long-running dispute with the Colombian organization. According to previous testimony here, the drug traffickers were angry because Panamanian soldiers had first intercepted a shipment of ether and then raided a cocaine-processing lab in the Panamanian jungle despite payment of a $5 million bribe. +At that point, Mr. Pretelt said, relations between the Colombians and the Panamanian military were so frayed that an emissary of the Medellin group complained to two colonels who headed military intelligence and to the police that General Noriega ""had double-crossed the family."" The emissary also said the Colombians were openly debating whether ""they should kill Noriega."" +The emissary was jailed shortly thereafter, but was then released on General Noriega's orders, Mr. Pretelt said. +Mr. Pretelt also testified that he accompanied the general to Havana for a meeting with President Fidel Castro that prosecutors contend was intended to mediate the dispute with the Medellin group. +Informed of the cocaine laboratory crisis while on a trip to Israel and France, General Noriega quickly flew to New York, arriving ""very nervous, very stressed"" at the notion that he was under pressure from ""both the gringos and the Colombians,"" Mr. Pretelt said. +On the flight to Havana, for which Mr. Pretelt said he filed a misleading flight plan, General Noriega blamed one of his senior officers, Col. Julian Melo, for the situation. Colonel Melo had received the bribe money from the Colombians and, according to prior testimony, failed to distribute it properly. Conference in Havana +Mr. Pretelt testified that General Noriega ""was out of control"" at the thought that Colonel Melo ""couldn't handle the business in the right direction."". +He also testified that he later saw General Noriega and Mr. Castro conferring in Havana, but did not take part in their discussion. He said that on the return flight to Panama two days later ""Noriega was more settled down and relaxed"" and said that he had found a solution to the crisis. +""He mentioned to me they would put all the blame for the raid on the lab on Melo,"" and that Colonel Melo ""will be the scapegoat,"" Mr. Pretelt said. The colonel was cashiered, but no criminal charges were brought against him. +Mr. Pretelt testified that General Noriega also agreed to return $1 million of the bribe to the Medellin cartel, along with aircraft, laboratory equipment and workers who had been arrested in the raid.

Manuel Antonio Noriega after a week of testimony by financial analysts in the ousted Panamanian leader's drug trial. +They claimed in a counterattack on Thursday that he got his money from the Central Intelligence Agency, Israeli arms deals and his wife's income, and not drug barons. +""Can you say that any of this is drug money?"" Frank A. Rubino, General Noriega's lawyer, asked a financial analyst for the Drug Enforcement Administrtation. +""No,"" said the analyst, Lenore Sowers, who had traced $23 million through a maze of banks, numbered accounts and credit card summaries. No Clear Record +She could not, for instance, find any record of a $5 million bribe the Government contends General Noriega received in 1984 to protect a Medellin drug cartel lab being built in Panama. +The defense asserted that a scrawled note about ""cocaine"" and ""$50,000 Kg"" found on General Noriega's dresser during the December 1989 invasion of Panama was about confiscations, not sales. +When Mr. Rubino asked whether Ms. Sowers could show C.I.A. payments going into General Noriega's intelligence service account at the Bank of Credit and Commerce International, Federal District Judge William M. Hoeveler stopped him. +The C.I.A. and military intelligence have acknowledged paying General Noriega $320,000 during his rise to power in Panama. The defense claims the figure is closer to $10 million. +At least one payment of $226,000 into General Noriega's account came from an entity known as Iarco. Mr. Rubino said that stood for Israeli Arms Company, once again prompting objections from prosecutors. The check was drawn on Banco Leumi de Israel, one of that nation's largest banks. +More than $2 million of the money came from the accounts of General Noriega's wife, who is from a wealthy family and had a $35,000-a-month income, the defense showed. +During earlier prosecution questioning, Ms. Sowers said $7.1 million of the deposits that went into the account was in cash and $7.5 million more could not be traced because it went through Panama's B.C.C.I. branch. +The prosecution is expected to rest by Monday, after finishing the financial testimony. The defense will make its delayed opening statement Tuesday. +The judge said he would rule later on admitting into evidence a July 1991 letter Mr. Rubino wrote to a bank where General Noriega's money was briefly held. Prosecutors say the letter shows General Noriega claimed the money belonged to him, not the Panamanian intelligence service. +The defense said it shows only that they made every effort to obtain whatever money might be available to pay back the Federal court, which is subsidizing General Noriega's estimated $6 million defense. +General Noriega, who surrendered to United States troops during the invasion of Panama two years ago, faces up to 140 years in prison if convicted on all 10 drug and racketeering counts." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"To Stem Widespread Extinction, Scientists Airlift Frogs in Carry-On Bags +Of all the things airport security screeners have discovered as they rifle through travelers' luggage, the suitcases full of frogs were a first. +In a race to save amphibians threatened by an encroaching, lethal fungus, two conservationists from Atlanta recently packed their carry-ons with frogs rescued from a Central American rain forest -- squeezing some 150 to a suitcase -- and requested permission from airlines to travel with them in the cabin of the plane. +The frogs, snuggly swaddled in damp moss in vented plastic deli containers big enough for a small fruit salad, were perhaps the last of their kind, collected from a pristine national park that fills the bowl of El Valle, an inactive volcano in Panama. +In many parts of the world, habitat loss is thought to be the biggest driver of amphibian extinctions, but the frogs in El Valle are facing a more insidious threat. +A waterborne form of chytrid fungus is marching down the spine of the mountain range where they live. Scientists aren't exactly sure how the fungus, Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, kills, but it seems to break down a protein in the skin called keratin that may be important for respiration. The skin of infected animals sloughs off in layers, and within two weeks, they die. +The chytrid fungus is thought to play a large role in the worldwide disappearance of amphibians, a trend terrifying to experts, who say it would be the first loss of an entire taxonomic class since the dinosaurs. +Joseph R. Mendelson, curator of herpetology at Zoo Atlanta, who has discovered some 50 new species of frogs only to watch half of them become extinct in the last 15 years because of the fungus, was tired of watching helplessly as salamanders, newts and frogs were eradicated from one patch of forest after another. +With the help of new data published on Feb. 28 in The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences by Karen R. Lips, a zoologist at Southern Illinois University who spent years tracking the chytrid fungus, scientists were able to predict where it would next strike. +'When you can make predictions with respect to catastrophic population declines and extinctions, we all agreed you have a moral and ethical responsibility to do something about it,' Dr. Mendelson said. +Dr. Lips called Dr. Mendelson and Ron Gagliardo, the amphibian conservation coordinator at the Atlanta Botanical Garden, because the men have a reputation for being especially good at catching and taking care of frogs, and proposed an idea that would seem reckless to most biologists. +She wanted them to collect as many frogs of as many different species as they could and move them out of El Valle before the virus hit. She estimated they had only weeks to carry out the mass frog evacuation. +'We are going to over-collect hundreds of animals,' Dr. Mendelson said. 'That flies in the face of all conservation logic.' +There was no time to do the meticulous studies of behavior, reproduction, eating habits and habitat that zoologists try to conduct before moving any endangered species from its natural environment. +There was not even time to figure out where to keep hundreds of frogs. +'Years and years of work go into moving one species out of the environment,' Dr. Mendelson said. 'We decided that can't happen. There's no time for that. We had to figure out what could be done quickly and, of course, legally.' +They went into the forest at night, since most frogs are nocturnal, slogging down a river in hip waders and carrying powerful flashlights. After four separate trips, some lasting only 48 hours, the two men, along with a native guide who possessed stealth and fast hands, managed to gather 600 frogs, shooting for 20 males and 20 females of each species to ensure good genetic variation in their breeding colonies. +To feed them, they rented a house and left piles of rotting fruit in the corners to attract flies. 'It was pretty stinky,' Mr. Gagliardo said. +Then there were those trips through airport security. +A guard in the Panama City airport was not satisfied with the letters of explanation the biologists presented, even though they included permission from the Panamanian government to collect the frogs. +He had them open a container that held the Michael Jordan of jumpers, a species the biologists liked to call rocket frogs. +'I open it and, sure enough, the frog goes bing!' Dr. Mendelson said. +Fortunately, Mr. Gagliardo caught it before it landed on anyone in the amazed crowd that had gathered. +Many of the species they brought home to their respective institutions in Atlanta have never before been kept in captivity. +But Mr. Gagliardo, who has been bringing frogs home since he was 4 years old, has developed a fine touch for their husbandry and for recreating environments for them to thrive and breed. +He quickly realized, for example, that a translucent species of frog collected from a cloud forest wasn't breeding because it needed, well, clouds. +With a cool-misting humidifier he bought on eBay and some plastic pipe, Mr. Gagliardo filled the glass frogs' tank with a steady whisper of white water vapor. Once the tank, which sits in a corner of a behind-the-scenes room at Zoo Atlanta, was bubbling over with a creeping mist like a witch's caldron, tadpoles followed in short order. +'It's a bit of a Noah's Ark, in some ways,' Mr. Gagliardo said.

Manuel Antonio Noriega and his legal team. +The United States Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit in Atlanta ordered the network to turn over the tapes immediately to Judge William M. Hoeveler, who is presiding over the Noriega case in Miami. +Judge Hoeveler issued the order that the network defied on Friday night when it played excerpts from a conversation between the general and a secretary for one of his lawyers. +The unanimous decision by the three-judge panel was a startling legal rebuff to CNN, whose lawyers said tonight that they would immediately file an emergency appeal to the United States Supreme Court. +A spokesman for the Court said tonight that CNN had not filed papers requesting an expedited hearing. Such a request to the Court would first go before Justice Anthony M. Kennedy, who hears appeals from the 11th Circuit. Unlike Previous Cases +CNN's lawyers seemed stunned by the decision. ""It completely ignores virtually all the prior restraint cases,"" said Terry S. Bienstock, a lawyer in Miami for the network. ""They have shifted the burden of proof, requiring CNN to justify its actions and its editorial decisions on whether or not to broadcast by producing those materials for a court to act as a review panel."" +CNN's lawyers had argued that Judge Hoeveler's ban was an unconstitutional prior restraint on its right to broadcast the news. Lawyers for the general have said they were told by the network it had seven tapes of General Noriega's conversations, but the network has not said who the conversations were with. +CNN did not broadcast any more tapes today, but representatives said the network might do so at any time. +Frank A. Rubino, General Noriega's lawyer, who had asked the appellate court to uphold the ban, expressed elation over the court's decision. ""It will prohibit them from broadcasting the portion of the one tape they have broadcast and further prohibit them from broadcasting any of the additional attorney-client privileged tapes they have in their possession."" +In its order, the appeals court said the network had shackled the district court by refusing Judge Hoeveler's request to turn over the tapes to a Federal magistrate to determine whether they damaged General Noriega's right to a fair trial. Balancing Constitutional Rights +""The First Amendment interest of the press and the public will be best served by the immediate production of the tapes held by CNN so that the district court can conduct the difficult balancing of constitutional rights required under these circumstances, an obligation which the district court is required to discharge."" +The appeals court expressed irritation that CNN played one of the tapes at issue while it appealed the order prohibiting such broadcasts. ""No litigant can continue to violate a district court's order and attempt to have that district court's order reviewed at the same time,"" the ruling said. +The decision was unexpected because the restraints on broadcasting or printing have rarely been imposed and have almost always been overturned when appealed, even when national security issues were at stake. +The leading Supreme Court precedent on prior restraint in the context of a claim that a defendant's right to a fair trial may be jeopardized is the 1976 case Nebraska Press Association v. Stuart. +In that case the Court overturned an order issued by a Nebraska trial judge prohibiting reporting on a preliminary hearing in a mass murder case until the jury was selected. The judge's purpose was to insure that an impartial jury could be found. +Chief Justice Warren E. Burger wrote in that case that ""prior restraints on speech and publication are the most serious and the least tolerable infringement on First Amendment Rights."" +The appeals court's ruling in Atlanta came several hours after lawyers for General Noriega asked Judge Hoeveler to cite CNN for contempt and to fine the network $300,000 each time it broadcast the conversations. +The defense lawyers sought the fines as a contempt sanction against the network after the Friday broadcast. CNN played the tape moments after Judge Hoeveler told the network's lawyer he would fine CNN if it violated his order barring the broadcast. +The contempt issue was left unresolved when the network's lawyer asserted that the judge had disclosed his views on the matter to a CNN reporter before today's hearing and asked the judge to disqualify himself from considering the contempt issue. Judge Hoeveler said he would seek a ruling on CNN's motion from the chief judge of the district court. +In their contempt brief, the lawyers for General Noriega contended that they did not know the extent to which their conversations with the General had been disclosed to prosecutors. The chief Government lawyer in the case, Myles Malman, has said that none of the Government's lawyers know the contents of the tapes. Prosecution Asks CNN to Stop +The Justice Department also filed a motion with the appellate court today asking CNN to stop broadcasting conversations between General Noriega and his lawyers, saying it threatened his right to a fair trial. +The department's brief also asserted that Government lawyers do not know the contents of the tapes. ""The Government cannot at this point be more specific with respect to the possible harm that could flow from publication of the tapes because the Government, like the district court, does not know the contents of the materials CNN has in its possession,"" the legal paper said. A Troubled Case +The brief conversation that the network broadcast Friday evening suggested that the General was concerned about the arrest of two men in Panama, identified as Alfredo Sanchez and Felipe Camargo, who the General feared might testify against him. +The existence of the tape-recorded conversation between the General and his lawyers was another serious embarrassment for Federal prosecutors in a case that some legal experts said was weak from the start. Defense lawyers have already said they would seek the dismissal of the drug trafficking charges against General Noriega because of the taping. +The Federal Bureau of Prisons routinely monitors telephone calls made by detainees, but officials at the agency have said they did not record conversations between inmates and their lawyers if asked not to tape such calls. General Noriega's lawyers have said that he asked prison officials not listen to his calls to his attorneys. +Prosecutors in the case have had problems since Federal drug agents brought General Noriega to Florida after a United States invasion last December toppled his regime. +In the weeks after General Noriega's arrest, Federal agencies squabbled over access to documents seized by United States forces in Panama. Defense lawyers complained about unusually strong remarks by United States Attorney Dexter Lehtinen concerning one of the general's co-defendants and the release of General Noriega's mug shot to the media. +The Government's freeze on the General's overseas bank accounts has enabled his lawyers to assert that he was being denied access to money he needs to finance an adequate defense. And after the taping was disclosed, Judge Hoeveler expressed doubt that the General could receive a fair trial. Source of Tapes Unknown +The brief conversation broadcast by CNN was between General Noriega and a person identified as a legal secretary acting as a translator for one of the lawyers' investigators. CNN displayed an English translation on the television screen and a narration in English, so that the original conversation in Spanish could not be heard. +Federal investigators, who have begun a criminal investigation to determine how the tapes were obtained by CNN, said today that they did not know who provided the tapes to the network. +On Friday, Mr. Rubino asserted that the tapes were obtained by the State Department, which in turn supplied them to unidentified high officials of the government of Guillermo Endara, Panama's president. The lawyer said that Panamanian officials turned the tapes over to CNN. +CNN has said that the reporter who obtained the tapes works primarily for Noticiero Telemundo/CNN, a nightly news program in Spanish. CNN produces the program for Telemundo, an independent Spanish language television network. In Latin America, Telemundo's programs are broadcast by CNN." +False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Panama Disclosure a Setup, Some in Congress Say +LEAD: Leaders of Congress, stung by a charge that they had disclosed covert plans to unseat Panama's leader, have accused the Reagan Administration of setting up Congress for blame in the episode. +Leaders of Congress, stung by a charge that they had disclosed covert plans to unseat Panama's leader, have accused the Reagan Administration of setting up Congress for blame in the episode. +Marlin Fitzwater, the White House spokesman, declined to respond today to Congressional assertions that the Administration itself had disclosed the plans for covert action against Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega, which were reported in Wednesday's issue of The Washington Post. Mr. Fitzwater said he did not want to get into a confrontation with Congress. +The Democratic and Republican leaders of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence said on Thursday that the disclosure had come from the executive branch, not the Senate. A day earlier, Jim Wright, the Speaker of the House, insisted that the House had not been the source. Political Motives Suggested +Congressional leaders suggested that partisan politics and rivalry between the Administration and Congress might have been behind the disclosures. They mentioned embarrassment to Vice President Bush over the Administration's failure to oust General Noriega, who United States officials have said is connected to the drug trade. +Senator William S. Cohen, Republican of Maine and vice chairman of the Intelligence Committee, said at a news conference, 'Frankly, we were chagrined and surprised to find such a heavy-handed approach by the executive branch to embarrass members of the Hill.' +Mr. Cohen said that members of the committee were receiving inquiries from reporters about the Noriega plans even before the Administration told the committee of the plans. +Both Mr. Cohen and Senator David L. Boren, Democrat of Oklahoma, the panel's chairman, answered affirmatively when asked whether it appeared to them that the Administration was trying to 'set up' members of Congress by portraying them as the source of the leak. +'Clearly, the leak came from the executive branch,' Mr. Boren said. +Asked why they believed they were being set up, Mr. Cohen answered, 'One can get Machiavellian,' and Mr. Boren said, 'The political season puts great stress on the relationship between the two branches.' Notice of Covert Plans +The rivalry issue concerns a bill that has been approved by the Senate and that is to come before the House soon. The bill would require the Administration to give Congressional leaders 48 hours' notice when it plans to undertake a covert intelligence operation. This theory suggests that the Administration, which is trying to defeat the bill, would like to blame Congress for the Noriega leaks to show that members of Congress cannot be trusted with secrets. +When the Administration's plans against General Noriega, who has been indicted in the United States on charges that he was involved in drug trafficking, were disclosed Wednesday in The Post, the newspaper attributed information about them to Administration and Congressional sources. +The Post said today the reporting of the story 'began when a Post reporter discovered that a previously scheduled Senate Intelligence Committee meeting on Tuesday probably concerned Panama.' +Asked Thursday whether he was angry over disclosure of the plans, President Reagan replied, 'I'm usually angry at Congress, yes.' +At today's White House briefing, Mr. Fitzwater refused to be drawn into the fray.

Fitzgerald, the United States attorney for the Northern District of Illinois, said in announcing the indictments here this morning. 'Renting babies for the purpose of allowing drug dealers to smuggle cocaine is truly a new low.' +According to indictments unsealed today, over the last two years female couriers flew on 34 occasions with 20 different infants from Chicago to Panama, where they picked up formula cans injected with liquefied cocaine, and then returned. Others smuggled cocaine into the United States from Jamaica inside rum bottles, the handles of their suitcases or injected into their body cavities. +Most of the drugs were distributed in Chicago and New York, but some were sold in London and Birmingham, England, officials said. +Scott Levine, an assistant United States attorney, said parents in the Englewood neighborhood on the South Side of Chicago were paid $200 to $2,000, plus marijuana in some cases, to send their babies on the trips, which lasted from two days to two weeks. One child, the daughter of Keith Moore, 35, and Marisa Hardy, 22, made six trips, the first when she was 3 weeks old, the indictment says. +'On that trip the baby was crying and looked sickly,' Mr. Levine said in an interview. 'The baby was crying a lot, so Catrina Martin left her in an empty bathtub and closed the door.' On a separate trip, he said, 'That same baby was crying so much that the courier, Shanae Reed, left her alone in the hotel room and went out for a beer.' +Ms. Martin was arrested in London with the baby and about 18 baby-formula cans containing six kilos of cocaine, Mr. Levine said. Mr. Moore and Ms. Hardy, who are among four Chicago parents charged with loaning or renting their children to the operation, have had their parental rights terminated and the baby, now more than 2 years old, has been adopted. +'These drug dealers used the most depraved way possible in which to import and export their commodity,' Mr. Levine said. 'There are people who are willing to do anything and come up with any imaginable way of smuggling cocaine and heroin into the United States and out of the United States.' +Of the 35 people indicted, three were arraigned today, and four others are in custody on previous charges. Nineteen other people the authorities say were connected to the ring have previously been charged, and all but one of them convicted, over the past two years. +The operation was exposed when a customs inspector in Newark stopped a woman traveling to London in January 1999 and discovered six formula cans filled with liquid cocaine, officials said. Separately, Chicago police also received a call from a frantic mother when her baby failed to return from a smuggling trip after a week. +According to the indictment, Clacy Watson Herrera, who is in custody in Panama, and Byron Watson of Montego Bay, Jamaica, supplied the drugs. They liquefied the cocaine in a blender with hot water, officials said, squirted it with a syringe through holes in the cans made with a hammer and nail, soldered the holes and reattached the baby formula labels. +Each 16-ounce can held up to $700,000 worth of cocaine, which was later turned into crack for sale, the authorities said. +The suspects include parents of the 'rented' babies, women who acted as couriers, people who fraudulently obtained free airline tickets and false passports, and those who orchestrated the scheme. One of the ringleaders, officials say, is Selena Johnson, 29, who recruited Mr. Moore and Ms. Hardy's baby. The indictment says that Orville Wilson, 38, a New Yorker, came up with the scheme of having female couriers travel with babies and cans of formula. +A total of 20 kilos of cocaine was seized on four trips. The authorities believe the ring may have made as many as 45 such trips. The suspects face penalties ranging from five years to life in prison, with fines up to $4 million.

Javier Villanueva, the priest who picked up General Noriega after the general decided to seek asylum in the Vatican Embassy on Christmas Eve 1989, said the verdict was evidence that ""crime doesn't pay."" +Several public figures expressed anger that the murder and corruption charges still pending here against General Noriega in about 30 cases had not moved forward with the same speed as the Miami trial even though Panamanian law permitted trial and conviction in absentia. +The Panamanian cases that have received wide publicity involve accusations that General Noriega ordered the 1985 killing of Dr. Hugo Spadafora, a prominent political opponent, and the executions of about a dozen members of the Panamanian Defense Forces who tried to overthrow him in the rising political tensions here in 1988-89. 'Various Cases' Pending +Attorney General Rogelio Cruz said in an interview on Wednesday that some of the pending cases were still being investigated while others were already in the courts. He said that ""various cases"" would be resolved before the end of the year. +While Panamanians widely accept that it is unlikely General Noriega will ever be brought back here to stand trial or to serve a sentence, political leaders and legal experts said convictions here would help to amass information to use against his collaborators and to demonstrate that the justice system in Panama was improving. +While Panamanian news organizations -- now freer and more informative than at any time in modern memory -- have given daily coverage to the Noriega trial, with several sending correspondents to Miami, most people appear to view General Noriega and his era as being over and done with. +Although President Endara said last week that if General Noriega was acquitted of all charges in the United States, Panama would bring him home and prosecute him, most Panamanians saw that as unlikely. +Ricardo Arias Calderon, the Christian Democrat who leads the opposition to Mr. Endara but who was his ally in opposition to General Noriega, said having General Noriega here for trial and possible imprisonment would ""stir up things"" while Panama is trying to rebuild the economy and build democracy. +""Panama today is concerned with the present and the future,"" he said. ""Noriega being here would mean having to worry with the past."" +Mr. Cruz, noting that General Noriega had made the decision to give himself up to the United States for trial instead of the new Panamanian authorities after he sought asylum in an embassy, said the former strongman ""didn't want to confront the ire of the people."" +""Up there, in Miami, he was allowed to dress as a military man,"" the attoreney general said, ""and wrap himself in the flag of nationalism and pretend to be a war prisoner. Here, he wouldn't have been allowed to do that."" +Other people today generally praised the outcome, but some complained about the fact that he had been removed from Panama for trial. Thoughts Under the Sun +A group of construction workers near one of the numerous high rise buildings going up in Panama City paused under the intense afternoon sun and one of them said that while he had not approved of the way General Noriega ran Panama he wondered ""why, if a Panamanian does something wrong here, they have to come get him and send him up there to be tried."" +The Endara Government, which has said it believes that most of General Noriega's wealth is deposited or invested outside of Panama, has also initiated a number of civil suits in the United States and one in London in an effort to recover some of that wealth. +One seeks to recover $20 million estimated to be impounded in Florida from the bankrupt Bank of Credit and Commerce International, where General Noriega is said to have deposited many millions of dollars." +False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,"U.S. May Tell What It Paid for Noriega's Services +LEAD: Under the pressure of subpoenas, the United States Government is likely to disclose for the first time the amount of money it paid Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega of Panama in the years he worked for American intelligence agencies, two Justice Department officials involved in the case say. +Under the pressure of subpoenas, the United States Government is likely to disclose for the first time the amount of money it paid Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega of Panama in the years he worked for American intelligence agencies, two Justice Department officials involved in the case say. +Release of the information would be part of the pretrial sparring in an increasingly complex and politically charged case that may include videotaped testimony by President Fidel Castro of Cuba and the appearance of American intelligence officials, as well as the perusal by lawyers and the trial judge of hundreds of classified documents. +'Fidel said he wants to help and is willing to do whatever he can to show Noriega is innocent,' Frank A. Rubino, General Noriega's chief defense lawyer, said in an interview. +Several lawyers say the trial, scheduled for next year, may set new guidelines defining the extent of the American Government's power to seize a suspected criminal abroad and establish new ground on the use of classified information in court. +The Government has not yet sought to block, on national security grounds, the introduction of classified material. It is by no means clear what would happen if the Government did raise such objections. A decision to try to withhold material on national-security grounds would have to come from Attorney General Dick Thornburgh himself, and a Justice Department official said no such decision was pending as of today. +Defendant in 'Good Spirits' +Mr. Rubino said the former Panamanian dictator maintained that he had received $11 million in payments from the American Government and $7 million from intelligence agencies of several foreign governments for his services over the years. He said General Noriega was in 'good spirits' and ready to go to trial. +A Government official involved in the case scoffed at the $11 million figure. He said the Government planned to declare at a hearing on Monday in Federal District Court here 'a far lower amount' that it says it paid to General Noriega. +The Government's move toward disclosure appears to have been prompted by Mr. Rubino's subpoenaing virtually every major American intelligence, defense and foreign policy agency, demanding that they relinquish records showing payments to General Noriega in the years that he is reported to have worked as an informant and agent for the United States Government. +The subpoenas form part of a broad defense strategy that Mr. Rubino said is intended to concentrate on the political implications of American Government actions in Panama, rather than the narrower legal issues of the Government's case charging General Noriega with being a drug dealer. +After supporting General Noriega for years as a paid American agent, the United States invaded Panama last December to arrest General Noriega. The General was indicted by two grand juries in Florida in 1988 on a dozen counts of cocaine trafficking and racketeering involving shipments of drugs into the United States. +A Prisoner of War +In effect, Mr. Rubino is trying to put the Government on trial. He has already forced the Government to grant General Noriega status as a prisoner of war, rather than as a common criminal. As a prisoner of war, he is visited regularly by an American Army officer and is allowed to wear a uniform in court. +Mr. Rubino has also argued it would be morally intolerable for an American court to recognize the killing of more than 200 people and the destruction of millions of dollars of property in an invasion to seize one person. Mr. Rubino argues that the law should not grant such broad power to the Government to seize a criminal suspect. +Mr. Rubino says he hopes to show that General Noriega carried out many apparently illegal activities with the compliance, and at times the participation, of American intelligence agencies. He said he intended to subpoena an array of current and former American intelligence officials, as well as classified documents, to make his case. +'I will show that, sure, he did some not-nice things, but that he did them as part of operations that he was carrying out for our Government,' Mr. Rubino said. +A Flight to Cuba +In pursuit of that strategy, Mr. Rubino has already taken some unusual steps. He said he flew to Cuba last month, where Mr. Castro gave him documents that will 'greatly help' General Noriega's defense. He added that Mr. Castro is 'eager' to assist the defense and may well testify for General Noriega in a videotaped deposition. It is not clear whether or how Mr. Castro could be cross-examined. +A Justice Department official contended that the Government's case had grown stronger since the invasion of Panama because several additional witnesses and documents have been found to support the prosecution. +'The case rests on our being able to argue it as a criminal case against a drug-dealer, instead of a political case against the Government,' the Justice department official said. +Mr. Rubino has denied repeated requests for an interview with General Noriega. He described General Noriega as calmly preparing himself for his trial from a small cell in the local Federal prison. Mr. Rubino said General Noriega had access to a telephone and mail and that he had made calls to Panama. Threats to Witnesses? United States officials have contended that General Noriega has used the calls to threaten some potential witnesses, but Mr. Rubino said he had no information to support such an accusation. He contended that General Noriega had resisted talking about some of his most controversial and secret intelligence activities because he feels reluctant to reveal the names of sources and agents. +'But I keep telling him - you're in jail, you've got to defend yourself,' Mr. Rubino said. +The two sides will face off in Federal court on Monday before Judge Judge William M. Hoeveler, who is hearing the case. The hearing was called to resolve an impasse over the Government's decision to freeze all of General Noriega's known bank accounts, contending they contained the illegal profits of drug sales. General Noriega's lawyers replied by asking to withdraw from the case because General Noriega cannot pay them nor mount an adequate defense while his accounts are frozen. +Mr. Rubino said he had subpoenaed the Central Intelligence Agency, the Defense Intelligence Agency, the Department of Defense, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the National Security Council, the Secretary of State, the National Security Agency and the Drug Enforcement Administration, demanding that they reveal any payments made to General Noriega over the years. +Spokesmen for several agencies said they could not confirm that the subpoenas had been received. But spokesmen for the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the C.I.A. said their agencies had received subpoenas. The spokesmen refused to comment further on the case. +No Replies From Agencies +Mr. Rubino said the subpoenas were intended to help demonstrate that General Noriega had received 'millions' of dollars from activities other than his suspected drug-dealing - and that the Government had no right to freeze all of his accounts. The bank funds are estimated to total $20 million to $50 million, lawyers in the case say. +Mr. Rubino said that so far no Government agency had replied to his subpoenas. Judge Hoeveler said in an interview that the Government would have to reply to the subpoenas at the hearing on Monday. +A Justice Department official said the Government would take the unusual step of asking Judge Hoeveler not to unfreeze General Noriega's bank accounts while at the same time permitting the Government to pay an especially high fee for General Noriega's defense. Public defenders normally receive between $40 and $60 an hour, but under the Government's proposal, the American taxpayer would in effect pay General Noriega's lawyers a much higher rate. +That could be costly, since General Noriega's lawyers have estimated that adequate preparation and presentation of his defense could cost $5 million. U.S. Justice on Trial? But Judge Hoeveler might be sympathetic to such a step. He said he was particularly concerned about assuring that General Noriega was treated in such a way that there would be no doubt that the Panamanian military commander had received as fair a trial as possible. He has commented that he thinks the American system of justice is on trial, and that the world is watching to see if General Noriega is fairly treated. +Judge Hoeveler added that the trial was likely to set precedents because never had the United States invaded a country to seize its leader and bring him back to the United States to face criminal charges. +Though the trial will not begin until next year, two Federal officials say the Government is already making special preparations for what is expected to be a long process. +Those steps include assigning an expert on classified documents to assist Judge Hoeveler and constructing special reinforced and ultra-secure vaults to hold the highly classified Government documents that are expected to play a central role in the trial. +Mr. Rubino said General Noriega had told him he will not seek a plea bargain. +'He wants to go to trial,' Mr. Rubino said. 'He wants his day in court.'" +False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Noriega Tape Case Reviving Clash Over First Amendment +In the Noriega tapes case, broadcasters and the press find themselves fighting a battle they thought they had won long ago: their right not to be stopped in advance from printing or televising the news. +For more than a decade, the law was easy to understand. If news organizations had the information, they could spread it. While they could be sued for libel or invasion of privacy, or even face criminal charges after the fact, it was up to them to decide whether to publish. Prior restraint of broadcasters or the press was all but unconstitutional because it turned news decisions over to the Government or the courts, thus creating what news organizations considered an intolerable conflict with the Constitution's First Amendment guarantees. Lawyer-Client Relationship +But the issue was revived on Friday, when the Cable News Network played a scratchy tape of a conversation between the former Panamanian leader, Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega, and a member of his defense team, thereby violating a trial judge's order forbidding them to do so. The case is expected to find its way to the United States Supreme Court within days, setting the stage for the Court to clarify the conflicts that may exist between the First Amendment guarantees of press freedom and a defendant's Sixth Amendment right to a fair trial. +Criminal defense lawyers see the case as a possible test of the protective shield around the privacy of lawyer-client conversations, a common-law right that they consider fundamental to a person's ability to receive a fair trial. +But many lawyers specializing in First Amendment issues express fear that an appeals court's decision on Saturday upholding a Federal district judge's ban on televising the tapes could open the way for other judges to prevent the broadcast or publication of different kinds of information. These experts said the ruling against CNN was particularly alarming because the network, by playing the tape, was alerting the public to possible Government misconduct -- the secret recording of privileged conversations between a defendant and his lawyers. +""I think it's an ominous decision because it indicates a willingness we have not seen to tolerate prior restraints and the existence of a mindset among judges that's different from the mindset that's existed during the last 15 years,"" said Burt Neuborne, a former legal director of the American Civil Liberties Union who teaches First Amendment law at New York University. Speaking Openly With Lawyer +Criminal defense specialists, however, say the lawyer-client privilege must remain sacrosanct, not merely because potential jurors may be tainted by the release of such confidential communications, but because defendants must know that they can speak to their lawyers without the content of their conversation leaking out. +""If the relationship between an attorney and a client is ever breached, you'll never again have a client who will ever want to talk to an attorney,"" said Leonard Esquina, the executive director of the California Trial Lawyers Association. ""If you can't guarantee confidentiality, the defendant may not be candid, and if he's not candid, you may not be able to represent him effectively."" +Previous attempts at prior restraint have involved government efforts to keep information secret or have hinged on specific information that trial judges thought would affect a defendant's ability to receive a fair trial. While those have been overturned, legal experts said the Supreme Court could decide that the lawyer-client privilege is so essential that the press can be prevented from breaching it. +""What makes this case different from others is it goes to the harm that could come from interfering in a relationship,"" said Robert Post, a historian and professor of law at the University of California at Berkeley. ""That's more generic and more far-reaching."" Ability to Report News +News organizations view the appeals court's decision in the case as a potential threat to their ability to report the news. +""The principle at stake here is fundamental,"" said William A. Niese, senior vice president for law and human resources at The Los Angeles Times. ""Whether it will lead to a flood of other efforts to enjoin the media is anybody's guess, but it is clearly a breaching of the First Amendment dike that has heretofore been impregnable."" +But while news executives publicly sought to present a united front behind CNN on the constitutional issues, some privately questioned the wisdom of the network's tactics. They wondered why CNN announced that it had the tapes before it televised them, a move some characterized as a virtual invitation to prior restraint. +At the same time, some news executives questioned why CNN decided to press a constitutional test over a tape recording that did not appear to contain much news. In a short conversation, General Noriega and a person apparently acting as a translator for his lawyers discussed the arrest in Panama of two men who General Noriega thought might testify against him. +""Bad cases make bad law,"" said Professor Neuborne of New York University. ""The Noriega case was a bad case from the day they had an invasion to seize him and then seized his assets. Now he's justified the illegal taping of conversations between a lawyer and client, and a prior restraint. Noriega is going to do more damage to the U.S. Constitution than he ever did as a dictator of Panama."" Existence of Tapes +CNN's First Amendment counsel, Stuart F. Pierson, said the network reported that it had the tapes before playing them because it initially believed their existence was more important than the information on them. ""But when the Government then said it had done nothing wrong in taping the conversations, we had to address what was on the tapes,"" he said. ""Noriega is talking about witnesses and defense strategy with his counsel. If the prosecution heard that, that's a serious question of taint and that's newsworthy."" +First Amendment lawyers say the appeals court's ruling violated what they have considered a virtual ban on prior restraint of news organizations established by the Supreme Court in a 1976 case, Nebraska Press Association v. Stuart. In that case, a trial judge ruled that local newspapers could not publish the fact that a defendant accused of murder had confessed to the crime. Even though the information had been introduced in open court, the judge feared that printing it would prejudice potential jurors against the defendant. In striking down his ruling, the Supreme Court called prior restraint on speech and publication ""the most serious and least tolerable infringement on First Amendment rights."" +Since then, there have been several highly publicized efforts by judges to inhibit news organization's ability to broadcast or print news about trials, and all have been overturned at the appellate level. In 1984, for instance, the Federal district judge in Los Angeles hearing the Government's cocaine-trafficking case against the automobile maker John Z. DeLorean tried to prevent CBS News from broadcasting a videotape that appeared to show Mr. DeLorean purchasing drugs. The network showed the tape anyway, and a Federal appeals court said it was within its rights. Mr. DeLorean was later acquitted. Effect on Jurors +Floyd Abrams, a leading First Amendment lawyer in New York, said the Supreme Court's decision in the Nebraska Press Association case required lower courts to establish that the televising or publication of certain information would irredeemably taint all potential jurors, preventing the court from finding an impartial jury to hear the case. Time and again, he said, the courts have found ways to impanel a fair jury without shackling the press, among them changing the location of a trial and questioning potential jurors carefully to establish whether they had heard or read the potentially damaging information. +""We found jurors in DeLorean, where they had seen on TV the very crime he was accused of committing, and we found them in Watergate, when there was a jury poll,"" Mr. Abrams said. He is preparing a brief in support of CNN that eight major newspaper organizations, including The New York Times Company, The Washington Post Company and the American Newspaper Publishers Association, are planning to file. +Jurors are not the only ones who might be tainted by the release of conversations between clients and their lawyers. Prosecutors, for instance, could learn about the defense's strategy. But Mr. Abrams and other First Amendment experts said the issue here was the making of the tapes, not their televising. If the Government erred in recording General Noriega, and its misconduct justified the dismissal of the case against the former Panamanian leader, that provided one more reason CNN should not be prevented from airing the tapes, Mr. Abrams said. +The media are not completely free to broadcast or print any and all information with impunity. Certain property rights, like copyrights, are inviolable. Courts have also held that there are certain rights to privacy that the press cannot violate without peoples' consent. For this reason, the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts, the state's highest court, has prevented most showings in the state of ""Titticut Follies,"" a 1967 documentary about a Massachusetts prison for the criminally insane. Families of some patients objected and the patients themselves were unable to give informed consent. +Nonetheless, Vincent Blasi, a professor of law at Columbia University Law School, said exceptions to the virtual ban on prior restraint ""are so rare as to be almost nonexistent."" He called the presumption against prior restraint of the press ""one of the hidden absolutes of the First Amendment.""" +False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Judge Rules Noriega Trial Must Proceed +LEAD: A Federal district judge declared today that Gen.

In so doing, the judge rejected defense lawyers' arguments that United States courts have no jurisdiction over the fallen Panamanian leader. +A Federal district judge declared today that Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega must stand trial on drug-trafficking charges. In so doing, the judge rejected defense lawyers' arguments that United States courts have no jurisdiction over the fallen Panamanian leader. +The judge, William M. Hoeveler, said he was not qualified to rule on the defense argument that General Noriega was a prisoner of war as defined in the Geneva conventions and that he should be moved to a neutral third country. But he said the general's possible status as a prisoner did not affect whether he could stand trial. +'I don't find that under the Geneva convention I must divest myself of jurisdiction,' Judge Hoeveler said as General Noriega watched quietly, wearing an open shirt with the four stars of a general on his sleeves. At one point in the court session, the general sat hunched over a Spanish-language edition of the 1949 Geneva parleys. +Once it was clear the case would proceed, a defense lawyer raised objections to a proposal by prosecutors on how classified documents should be handled in the case and, for the first time, indicated that the defense would seek computer files compiled by the National Security Agency of conversations that intelligence officials had with and about the general. +Issue of Security Clearances +The lawyer, David L. Lewis, objected to a proposal by the prosecutors seeking a protective order requiring lawyers in the case to be subject to security clearances. Mr. Lewis, a New York lawyer who specializes in classified documents and recently joined the case, said the proposed restrictions were so harsh they might even affect lawyer-client conversations. +He said the Government was suggesting that statements by the general to his lawyers might include classified information that would have to be screened by Government security specialists. The Government says the order is necessary to protect national security. +Mr. Lewis said that while 'we have no objection' to requiring defense lawyers to undergo routine background security checks, like fingerprinting, the defense objected to a lifetime requirement that they submit all future writings, even works of fiction, for screening by the Government before publication. He also objected to proposed Government rules that he said would make it diffcult for the co-defendants' lawyers to confer with one another. +'We're asking you to control the rights of the defense in this case,' Mr. Lewis told the judge. +The defense proposed its own protective order in a motion filed today, and Judge Hoeveler immediately put it under seal. But in open court, Mr. Lewis discussed elements of the motion and for the first time suggested what sorts of documents would be sought as evidence by the defense. +Mr. Lewis indicated that in addition to seeking National Security Agency documents, the defense would probably seek records of General Noriega from 20 other countries with which he had dealings as Panama's leader, including France, Israel and Libya. +Mr. Lewis argued that such material should not be kept from public view under the Classified Information Procedures Act, which sets guidelines for protecting secret information in court cases, because they have been cited publicly in news reports and elsewhere and because the act often does not cover records from outside the United States. +James McAdams, an assistant United States attorney, insisted that the prosecution was not trying 'to drive a wedge between defense attorneys' and that the Government was only following established guidelines in handling classified documents. +Frank A. Rubino, another lawyer for General Noriega, said in an interview that he was considering several courses of action in response to the judge's ruling that the court had jurisdiction in the case. He said two possibilities were to appeal to the United Nations or to file a motion with the Supreme Court, contending that his client was being illegally held. +'I ain't going to take it sitting down,' Mr. Rubino said. In a motion filed today, Mr. Rubino contended that the general was a prisoner of war after he surrendered to American troops Jan. 3 and that his trial in a court here would violate the Geneva Conventions and other treaties. +The motion said, 'The plain and simple truth is that no prisoner of war has ever been brought before a nonmilitary tribunal of the detaining power to be tried for a crime that was allegedly committed prior to the armed conflict.' +Mr. Rubino told the judge he was not asking that his client be dismissed from the indictment but that he be sent back to Panama or another country that could then try 'fair and square' to get him back to the United States by extradition. +William C. Bryson, the Deputy Solicitor General of the United States, argued that the Government had agreed to treat General Noriega as if he was a prisoner of war but that this had no bearing on whether he could be tried here. 'This court has no right to transfer this case to some place that would be very surprised to receive him,' he said. +Agreeing with the prosecutors, Judge Hoeveler said: 'I've got to decide this by the law. I don't make international policy.' +Judge Hoeveler opened the hearing this morning by saying he intended to set a trial date that was more realistic than the March 6 target date. But a dispute between the defense and prosecution over how much time is needed to prepare for the case kept him from setting the date today. +For the first time today, General Noriega was joined in the courtroom by the five other defendants who are in Miami and were named in the drug trafficking indictment returned in February 1988. +Moves for Separate Trials +Lawyers for some co-defendants told the judge they wanted their clients to be tried separately from General Noriega, but the prosecution argued that they should be tried together. The judge has not yet ruled on the matter. +Defense lawyers said they needed months to prepare not only because of the sensitive documents but because they expected to call many witnesses. Mr. Lewis said in an interview that the defense was 'examining the option' of serving a subpoena on President Bush, who had contacts with General Noriega beginning when he was Director of Central Intelligence. +The defense lawyers today also began reviewing thousands of documents that the Government has made available in the case, including financial records, passports, hotel records and address books. The Drug Enforcement Administration has also filed an affidavit asking Judge Hoeveler to approve a search warrant that would allow it to inspect information on 34 computer diskettes seized during the United States invasion of Panama. The diskettes were found by the Army at the home of Carlos Wittgreen, a business associate of General Noriega. The affidavit says that the diskettes might provide more information that 'Wittgreen has assisted Noriega in the laundering of large sums of drug monies.'" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Panama City Journal; Fact of Life: Many Here Carry Guns +LEAD: Guns have always been a part of life in this Panhandle town, even before a new Florida law seemed to invite pistol-packing on city sidewalks. +Guns have always been a part of life in this Panhandle town, even before a new Florida law seemed to invite pistol-packing on city sidewalks. +The Police Department here regularly sponsors a 'Handguns for Housewives' training course, regularly oversubscribed. The closest thing to a big-city traffic jam comes on opening day of the hunting season, as pickups clog normally desolate roads to the wooded north country. +So the new statewide gun licensing law, which temporarily lifted restrictions on carrying unconcealed weapons and turned many Floridians aghast and embarrassed, left Panama City's 36,000 residents unfazed. People here kept doing what they always did: carrying weapons in cars, purses and otherwise out of sight. There was little confusion about the lenient statewide licensing rules for concealed weapons - the real intent of the new law - because officers here had never really enforced the old county licensing procedure. +Dennis Cress, a clerk at Bear Arms, a gun store just north of town, said no one wanted to scare 'a little old lady with blue-tinted hair' by carrying a gun openly. That is simply a matter of good manners, he said. +But he allowed, wryly, that chances are the little old lady would be packing a gun as well. +Of course a visitor shouldn't come away with the impression that everyone in Panama City keeps a .44 in the glove compartment. People here in North Florida aren't that much different from people everywhere else. But the fact remains that guns are comfortably accepted here. +As the Police Chief, Roger C. Haddix, put it, 'This isn't Florida, this is the South.' Politically, Panama City may be tied to the polyglot urbanity of Miami and the Sun Belt boom of Orlando, but sociologically and geographically it is akin to the rural cotton and peanut farming country of Alabama and Georgia to the north, the bayou country to the west. +And guns are ingrained in the social rhythms. +Gloria Lind calls herself a 'plinker,' someone who shoots .22-caliber pistols at paper targets and who 'just has fun and feels relaxed doing it.' +'I can just stand there and plink away,' she said blissfully of her trips to the target range. But the 51-year-old Ms. Lind also carries a gun when she rides horses, to protect herself from the rattlesnakes. And she says she wouldn't hesitate to use it to protect herself from a human rattlesnake, or her country from invasion. +Gun ownership, she says, is a 'whole spiritual, moral and ethical thing' for which she finds ample philosophical basis in the Constitution and the Bible. 'This is freedom, and the right exists for me to defend myself or my country,' she said while buying ammunition and a new gun at Bear Arms. +The new gun law, which took effect Oct. 1, resulted in part from a five-year effort by the Unified Sportsmen of Florida to get a statewide system for licensing instead of having it in the hands of 67 diverse counties. +Some counties exercised little control, while others imposed stiff requirements that amounted to banning of gun ownership for all but a few 'elites,' said Marion Hammer, the sportsmen's lobbyist. +One frustrated opponent of the new law, which makes it much easier for most Floridians to get a gun permit, attributed its passage in part to how the 4-foot-11-inch Ms. Hammer dressed up the gun lobby's usually rough-hewn image. 'But she's no different,' he insisted. 'Scratch her, and she's a good ol' boy in a skirt.' +Sponsor of the bill was State Representative Ronald Johnson of Panama City. He said that he believed it had ample provisions banning open and reckless display of weapons but that anti-gun forces had 'blown it up and created panic' - by summoning up images of plainly armed K-mart shoppers, handgun foes could play on fears of national ridicule and tourist reluctance. But at the real heart of the clamor, he said, were traditional political rivalries: rural northern Florida against the urban south, conservatives versus liberals. +The language that was missing in the new gun law, a nearly 100-year-old prohibition against the open carrying of such weapons as 'Winchester rifles,' was archaic and unnecessary, in Mr. Johnson's view. But after law-enforcement officials said the loophole might be a problem, and after all the attention it got, he led the effort to close it, an action the Legislature took this week. +The restored provision had its roots here in North Florida, in the lumber and turpentine industries at the turn of the century. A 1941 decision by the state's highest court noted that at the time, there had been 'a great influx of Negro laborers,' and the purpose of the act was to disarm them and 'give white citizens of the sparsely settled areas a better feeling of security.' +'It was never intended to be applied to the white population,' the court said, 'and in fact never has been so applied.'" +False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,"Excerpts From Noriega's Statement Before His Sentencing in Federal Court +Following are excerpts translated from Spanish from a statement read in Federal District Court in Miami today by Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega, the former Panamanian leader, before he was sentenced to 40 years in Federal prison on charges of cocaine trafficking, racketeering and money laundering. The excerpts include sections that Judge William M. Hoeveler would not allow to be read in open court. STATEMENT BY GENERAL NORIEGA +My prosecution was orchestrated by those who fear me, men who sought to discredit me through accusations or kill me by means of an invasion. Since they were unable to kill me previously, not with the commando group that was trained in the Caribbean, not with two military coup attempts, not with the invasion, when 15,000 American soldiers were looking for me and a price of $1 million was offered for me dead or alive, since they were unable to kill me yesterday, they bring me here today so that you can do them the favor of killing me alive. +. . . +Panama was not invaded because its canal was threatened. Panama was not invaded because the lives of American citizens were in danger. Panama was invaded because I was an obstacle and damaged the historical souvenirs of your President George Bush, who preferred me dead! +. . . +Yes, your honor, there is a strong political odor that can be felt in the development of this case. The Chinese Wall of the Government, the national security hearings, the conferences and permanent consultations with Washington, these are ""political overtones"" before, during and after. +. . . +How can you explain that among the 250,000 photographs captured in the invasion there exists not a single one of me with the heads of the Medellin cartel in the supposed meetings that have been spoken of so much in this chamber? +. . . +Of the mysterious trip to Cuba, it was not permitted to say that this included a request for a visit by a high emissary of the Reagan-Bush Administration, and that after my visit he went to Cuba to open a channel of conversation. But it is not convenient to the Administration that this be known, because the Cubans in exile would criticize it. And here it was not permitted to say the name of this high official sent by Reagan and Bush and received by Castro after my intervention. +. . . +Did you know, Your Honor, that from the beginning of May 1988 until October of 1989, these two Administrations were prepared to agree to the cancellation of all the criminal charges against me in exchange for my handing the country over to them so they could impose their government, courts and administrator of the Panama Canal? The question is: Why weren't the real drug traffickers offered this? The answer is simple. Besides being criminals, they weren't Panamanians and couldn't offer anything of interest in exchange. They couldn't offer territory for military bases, nor could they offer the canal beyond the year 2000. +[ The following was not allowed to be read in open court. ] +The agreements that were addressed in a very detailed way involved the development of events. And the elements are these: suspension of sanctions on our part, in anticipation that General Noriega would give a speech in which he would make a series of declarations, among them the announcement of his intention to step down as Commander in Chief of the Panama Defense Forces on Aug. 12 and the summoning of the Legislative Assembly to immediately approve legislation that would limit the term of any Commander in Chief of the P.D.F. to five years, retroactive to Aug. 12, 1983. In summary, your term should end on Aug. 12 as a result of a change in the law. +. . . +It is contemplated that you would go on a trip. It is expected that you would finish off some small personal affairs during the period immediately following your retirement, but in September you would leave the country until the period of the elections in May 1989, except for a short visit to your family at Christmas time. +. . . +[ The following is a continuation of General Noriega's statement in open court. ] +For my part, I accuse George Herbert Walker Bush of exercising his power and authority to influence and subvert the American judicial system in order to convict me. I accuse George Herbert Walker Bush of genocide for having ordered the massive bombardment of the civilian population of Panama and causing the deaths of more than 5,000 people." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Prodigy Heads for New York +In Panama, where he has won all seven starts by an average of 12 lengths, they call him El Bakan, ""the big shot.""

Bryson, the deputy United States Solicitor General, who will be coming from Washington. The 44-year-old Mr. Bryson joined the Justice Department in 1978 and for the past four years has supervised the briefing and argument of all criminal cases before the United States Supreme Court. He wrote the Government's arguments last year for abortion restrictions and played a role in Justice Department efforts to keep classified information from being disclosed in the Iran-contra trial of Lieut. Col. Oliver L. North. David Runkel, the chief Justice Department spokesman, acknowledged in an interview that it was unusual for someone from the solicitor's office to be brought onto a criminal trial. But he said Mr. Bryson will use his appellate experience to advise the Noriega trial team and appear in court on issues that could be subject to appeal, like the legality of the General's arrest. +Both Mr. Sullivan and Mr. Malman have been working on the case for months, Mr. Lehtinen said. In the two public courtroom appearances of General Noriega so far, Mr. Lehtinen has been the main prosecutor who has addressed the court. He said he doubted he would play any further role in the courtroom in the Noriega case. +Days of Speculation +Mr. Lehtinen's news conference ended days of speculation over exactly who would try the case. Until today, the United States Attorney's office had refused to make any substantive statements about the case since General Noriega's arrival. +Federal officials had privately raised questions about whether Attorney General Dick Thornburgh wanted Mr. Lehtinen to try the case. He has had limited trial experience in recent years and is known for an explosive temper. The concerns were fueled further by the fact that though Mr. Lehtinen was chosen United States Attorney here in June 1988 by Edwin Meese 3d, President Ronald Reagan's Attorney General, Mr. Lehtinen has yet to be formally nominated by President Bush. The office also requires confirmation by the Senate. +Asked today to respond to possible concerns in the Justice Department that he was not capable of handling the case properly, Mr. Lehtinen said: 'I don't respond to those concerns at all. I'm very happy with the Justice Department.' +Mr. Lehtinen said that he and Mr. Thornburgh had discussed the case by telephone and that they both have long agreed that the proper course was for Mr. Lehtinen's deputies to take on the trial. 'The ultimate responsibility is mine,' Mr. Lehtinen repeated. 'The Attorney General phoned me personally and said that. I never said any different.' +'Some people say if it's the most important case in the district, then why doesn't the United States Attorney do it?' he continued. 'The simple point is, we have senior litigation counsel. I am pleased that I have not been ordered to handle the case any differently.' +Other Cases Are Demanding +Mr. Lehtinen, a former Florida state legislator, also said he was concerned with other major narcotics case, white collar crime and public corruption cases and asserted that 'I could not devote the time to the Noriega case that would be needed for its proper presentation to the court.' +The defense team is also shaping up, with the announcement Friday that General Noriega's lawyers here, Frank A. Rubino and Steven Kollin, had hired David Lewis, a New York lawyer who is experienced in cases involving classified Government documents. The lawyers said they may add as many as six other lawyers, but that General Noriega had ruled out two prominent lawyers, Richard Haynes of Houston and Barry I. Slotnick of New York. Mr. Slotnick said Friday he was not interested in the case. +In an interview today, Mr. Kollin would not comment on why he thought Mr. Lehtinen was not leading the prosecution. 'Dexter is a fine lawyer,' he said. 'There is no reason to get into a personality attack.' +General Noriega was accused in an indictment returned here in February 1988 of protecting cocaine shipments to the United States from Colombia and assisting in the laundering of drug money, among other charges. +He has been confined to a cell in the basement of the Federal courthouse here as his defense lawyers have fought efforts by prosecutors and other Federal authorities to move him to a Federal prison, possibly out of state, for security reasons. +The trial judge, William M. Hoeveler, had ordered lawyers not to discuss a possible move with reporters. But one person involved in the case said that today that at a closed meeting before the judge on Friday, the defense succeeded in their efforts to delay General Noriega's transfer. It was not clear how long that delay would be. +THE U.S. AND PANAMA" +False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"BOND HEARING HELD FOR NORIEGA ALLY +LEAD: A former Panamanian military commander charged in the drug trafficking case of Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega was portrayed by character witnesses at a bond hearing today as a family man who deserves bail. +A former Panamanian military commander charged in the drug trafficking case of Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega was portrayed by character witnesses at a bond hearing today as a family man who deserves bail. +The hearing at Federal District Court here for the former military commander, Lieut Col. Luis del Cid, was marked by colorful testimony and sharp exchanges between the defense and prosecution lawyers. +At another bond hearing here today, a Federal prosecutor disclosed that General Noriega and a co-defendant, Eduardo Pardo, who was accused of being one of General Noriega's pilots in drug smuggling operations, are under investigation for smuggling illegal aliens into the United States. +Samuel I. Burstyn, the defense lawyer for Colonel del Cid, sought to challenge the prosecution's assertion that the colonel was a drug trafficker by calling his wife, Tilsa, and two friends to the stand. +Growing Feathers to Fly +At one point in the three-hour hearing Mr. Burstyn asked Mrs. del Cid whether her husband would flee to Panama if he was released on bond pending a trial. +'Only if he grows feathers to be able to fly,' she replied, speaking in Spanish through an interpreter. +Mr. Burstyn then turned to Federal District Judge William M. Hoeveler and said with a smile, 'A judicial notice that he's not likely to grow feathers.' +The Government called no witnesses. Myles H. Malman, speaking for the prosecution, asserted it was 'extraordinary' and inappropriate for the defense to call character witnesses. +By the end of the session Mr. Burstyn said he had several other possible character witnesses he might call, and Judge Hoeveler said he would reconvene the hearing on Wednesday. +Linked to Secret Police +Prosecutors contend that Colonel del Cid headed General Noriega's secret police, and the February 1988 indictment accuses the colonel of being a liaison between General Noriega and Colombian narcotics traffickers. +At times the lawyers tossed barbs at one another, with Mr. Burstyn saying it was 'very bizarre' that the Government had not submitted evidence of its allegations, and Mr. Malman contending that the defense lawyer was engaging in an 'evidentiary tennis match.' +Lawyers for General Noriega, the former Panamanian dictator, sat in the front row of the spectators' section, watching the proceedings carefully as they prepare for their client's bond hearing on Feb. 26. Colonel del Cid sat silently throughout the proceedings. +The possibility of new charges aginst General Noriega became apparent in a hearing held by Federal Magistrate William C. Turnoff, who refused to release Mr. Pardo on bail. He described the Panamanian pilot as a risk who could jump bail. +'The Government's investigation indicates this defendant was involved in alien smuggling,' Mr. Malman said. He told the judge the Government expected to file additional charges stemming from the alien smuggling operation, but did not provide any details about General Noriega's involvement. +William Meadows, Mr. Pardo's lawyer, urged the judge to set bail for his client, saying the charge against him on one drug trafficking count carried a maximum penalty of five years in jail.

But the lawyers were most critical of the effort to delay the producing of both sensitive and unclassified documents. +Raising of Legal Questions +Once defendants are formally charged, the court gives the prosecution and defense two weeks to come forward with documents that could be relevant to the case. +But the prosecution asked the court to delay that step until the court rules on whether it has jurisdiction over defendants like General Noriega. The former Panamanian dictator's lawyers contend that he was illegally forced to come to the United States to face drug charges. Questions over jurisdiction raise many new legal questions and it could be several days or weeks before the court rules on that issue. +General Noriega was indicted by a grand jury here nearly two years ago on charges that he was paid to protect cocaine shipments from Colombia through Panama to the United States. Other charges included money laundering and involvement in the production of cocaine. +In the motion seeking more time, the prosecutors suggested that the mounds of documents being uncovered in Panama have made it impossible for the Government to follow the Government's timetable on producing evidence. +'Due to the recent events in Panama,' the motion stated, 'evidence is still being gathered and analyzed.' +But Steven E. Kreisberg, a lawyer for co-defendant William Saldarriaga, was one of several defense lawyers who complained about the Government's motion. +'My guy's been sitting in jail since Oct. 1 and now they're procrastinating,' Mr. Kreisberg said. 'It's hard for us to prepare for trial without getting the discovery. This is just a further example of their unpreparedness to go to trial.' +Officials from the United States Attorney's office here did not return telephone calls today for comment on the motions. +In the motion on classified documents, the prosecution cited the Classified Information Procedures Act, which sets guidelines for protecting sensitive information in court cases. +Hearing Is Sought +The Government requested a hearing on its motion for a protective order that would establish specific rules on how classified documents would be handled by lawyers in the case. It specifies, for example, how lawyers be given security clearances or granted access to classified information. +Defense lawyers in the case say they will seek classified documents to defend their clients, and they have noted that such materials could prove embarrassing to the American Government. These documents, for example, could shed more light on President Bush's contact with General Noriega when Mr. Bush was Director of Central Intelligence. +While some defense lawyers said the Government's motion on sensitive documents simply followed the guidelines of the act, others contended that the prosecutors were going too far in seeking to prevent disclosure of Government information. +'They're taking the broadest application of CIPA to gain strategic advantage,' Samuel I. Burstyn, a lawyer for Luis del Cid, a co-defendant, said of the classified-information law. 'It's very, very insidious.' +Michael J. O'Kane, who represents Daniel Miranda, another co-defendant, said he was particularly concerned by the Government's request that defense lawyers seeking access to classified information in the case sign a 'nondisclosure' agreement with the agency from which the information was obtained. 'I have a problem submitting to the C.I.A. for clearance,' he said. 'I think that's overkill.' +Mr. O'Kane, who was criticized by the Government for being the first defense lawyer in the case to openly request sensitive records from the Government, also objected to a request in the Government's motion that defendants be prohibited in most instances from disclosing matters involving classified information to other defendants in the case. He said that would make it impossible for the six defendants in custody to work on a joint defense. +The Government's motions today were only the latest action in what is emerging as a fight over how documents should be used in the case. On Friday, a United States magistrate acted on a request by General Noriega's lawyers and prohibited the Government from destroying any documents belonging to the Panamanian that were seized in the invasion of Panama. The magistrate, William C. Turnoff, also ordered the Government to list everything taken from General Noriega's homes and military offices." +False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Text of Noriega's Statement At Federal Court in Miami +Following is the text of a statement prepared for delivery yesterday by Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega in Federal District Court in Miami, as provided by his lawyers. A full transcript of his remarks as delivered, made in Spanish, was not available. +When I was brought to the United States I mistakenly believed that I would be able to receive a fair trial. In order for this to come true I also believed that I would be able to use my money to hire the lawyers of my choice. It is painfully obvious that the United States Government does not wish me to to be able to defend myself and have done everything possible to deprive me of a fair trial and due process. +They have taken my money, deprived me of my lawyers, videotaped me in my cell, wiretapped my telephone calls with my lawyers and even given them to the Endara Government and to the press. The Government of the United States has ignored my status as a prisoner of war and violated the Geneva Convention. +Worst of all, they have not acted in a humanitarian manner. Despite repeated request by the International Red Cross, they have violated my human rights by denying my wife and children visas so that they may come to the United States to visit with me. To deprive a woman and children of the basic human right to visit their husband and father is shameful and a violation of international law. Virtual Army of Prosecutors +I am a military man and I understand a good fight. I never expected a fair fight from the Government of the United States. +I never expected an equal fight from the Government of the United States, but I also never expected to face a virtual army of prosecutors and investigators on such an uneven field of battle. +The United States Government wishes me to engage in combat in the courtroom with them, but my army is to consist of only three unpaid soldiers whose loyalty is unquestionable, but are only allowed to be armed with handguns and no support staff while the prosecutor's office has nuclear weapons. +This they call a fair fight. +Obviously, it is to the benefit of the Government that I cannot defend myself, for they fear what I know. +The battle I face ahead is very similar to when the United States invaded my country.

The State Department floated out consented intervention, but that sank rapidly. Nobody tried incursion, a term for hostile but temporary entry into another's territory, because of its use to explain our penetration into Cambodia in 1970. The size of the force that was put into the field inhibited the use of raid or foray. +By far, the preferred term was operation, as the Administration had hoped; thus was a war avoided. +What military jargon was churned up by the shooting engagement? A verb tossed about a great deal was reduce. 'The headquarters has been reduced,' said Gen. Colin L. Powell, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, in his initial briefing. This is correct military terminology; according to the strategist Edward N. Luttwak, 'You raze walls, you slight fortifications, you reduce fortresses.' +Although the most widely understood sense of reduce is 'to diminish, lessen' (just as the desperately intransitive 'I gotta reduce' is well known to dieters), a more destructive sense has long existed. 'To bring to (or into) order, obedience, reason, etc., by constraint or compulsion' is an Oxford English Dictionary definition with a citation for 1490, and 'to pulverize, to grind down to powder' entered the scientific language about a century later; this sense led to the cliche 'reduced to rubble.' +The military adopted reduce to describe the 'busting' of a noncom: to reduce to the ranks meant 'to degrade a noncommissioned officer to the rank of private.' In 1951, Frank Gaynor's New Military and Naval Dictionary defined the verb as 'to wipe out enemy resistance at a certain point.' +Lieut. Gen. Thomas W. Kelly, director of operations for the Joint Chiefs of Staff, took this meaning a bridge too far in his briefing: he said that our forces had 'engaged the cavalry squadron and reduced it' and that 'the naval infantry company . . . has been reduced.' +No; speaking with military precision, one does not reduce people, either individually or in companies or armies. You kill, destroy or wipe out the enemy, but you reduce places and things. You overcome, subdue, overwhelm or force the surrender of troops or small units, and defeat, conquer or vanquish a larger conglomeration of people - but you demolish, annihilate, bring to ruin and reduce enemy positions, weapons, cities. +The distinction between people and places in the target of reduce is worth preserving; the phrase to reduce casualties means 'to lessen the number likely to be killed or wounded,' not 'to wipe out the already wiped out.' +This postcard came from Robert Gibson of Thornville, Ohio: 'General Powell talked about the critical nature of the Panama military operation using the word criticality. Later, in responding to a question about when the American troops would return to their bases in the U.S., he said when the operation was concluded they would be retrograded back home. Did General Powell catch this language from General Haig?' +Don't be critical of criticality. The state or quality of being critical - not in the sense of offering criticism, but in the sense of approaching a point of crisis - has been used by atomic scientists for a generation. The noun is preferred to criticalness, much as specificity is preferred to specificness. As Al Capone might have said, ness has had it. +Retrograde, if the general used it as a transitive verb, was a mistake. In Latin, retro means 'backward' and gradi means 'to go or to step.' In synonymy, retreat implies withdrawal while retrograde implies a movement that just happens not to be forward; in the military, however, a retrograde movement has long been a euphemism for retreat. Gen. George B. McClellan took much derision when he used such a word and 'a change of base' to describe his withdrawal from the neighborhood of Richmond. General Powell probably meant rotate, in the sense of 'bring home' without the imputation of replace. +Was any euphemism used? When The Washington Post reported that a Stealth bomber had been used in Panama, it added that the plane had missed its target. 'Pentagon spokesmen confirmed that the plane had been used,' wrote William Branigin and Joanne Omang in a follow-up story, 'but said its mission was to bomb a field near Panamanian military barracks, rather than the barracks itself, to disrupt and confuse any would-be defense against invading Americans.' +The reporters added that 'a senior military officer, who asked that his name not be used, told The Post that bombing a field is a euphemism for missing the target.' +I am unable to locate an Air Force official who will confirm that the phrase used for a Gross Bombing Error is bombing a field, but mock-jocular descriptions of minor disasters are traditional in military lingo: artillerymen who shell their own infantry troops have been known to shrug off the horror with variations of 'Too bad they can't take a joke.' +Press and Congressional criticism of the operation was muted; success has a thousand fathers (as John F. Kennedy said, quoting 'an old proverb' that nobody has traced). However, during a news conference a few days before the move into Panama, President Bush was being criticized for sending two envoys to China despite a continued crackdown on dissidents by Beijing. +'To those suggesting that I have normalized the relationship with this power because of one visit,' the President said - an earlier, secret visit by the same envoys had not then been revealed - 'they simply are wrong, off the reservation on this point.' +He made an arm gesture accompanying the phrase off the reservation to emphasize how far away from the truth the critics were. +This suggests that the President has a tin ear when it comes to colloquialisms. Off the reservation - grounded in a reference to Indians who leave their assigned space - was given an extended sense by George Ade in 1900 to mean 'beyond acceptable limits.' +In politics, to go off the reservation has a specific meaning: to refuse to support a party's candidate without taking a walk or bolting the party. To use an ecclesiastical analogy, it means in schism but not in error; the political phrase has more to do with organizational loyalty than factual accuracy. +To use off the reservation as a synonym for wrong is incorrect; in this, the President was off base, which was probably the phrase he meant." +False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"The U.S. and Panama: Noriega; JUDGE POSTPONES MOVING OF NORIEGA +LEAD: A Federal District Court judge today ordered the Government to delay moving Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega from a jail cell in downtown Miami to a more secure site out of town after defense lawyers demanded assurances that they would have adequate access to him. +A Federal District Court judge today ordered the Government to delay moving Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega from a jail cell in downtown Miami to a more secure site out of town after defense lawyers demanded assurances that they would have adequate access to him. +The judge, William M. Hoeveler, ordered that the Government notify him when and where it wanted to move General Noriega so that the judge could first discuss the move with the defense and prosecution. +As General Noriega sat at the defense table listening intently, Judge Hoeveler said, 'I'm going to direct that the defendant not be moved until such time that I'm notified.' +An Apparent Change in View +The judge's order contrasted with his statement in an interview Monday in which he said he was 'not really concerned' about the details of General Noriega's move so long as his representation was not impeded. The judge had said it was not his responsibility to involve himself with moving the defendant. +General Noriega, the ousted Panamanian dictator, is being held in the basement of a Federal court building here. Federal authorities have said the Metropolitan Correctional Center, a Federal prison south of here, lacks adequate security for a prisoner as well known as General Noriega. Officials had discussed the possibility of transferring the General to one of three prisons rated more secure than the Florida institution: Atlanta; Leavenworth, Kan., and Marion, Ill. +The hearing was called today not to discuss the move, but because the prosecution petitioned the court for a bail hearing for the general. Prosecutors said they wanted to prove that the general had been given every opportunity to make a bail request before being transferred to another jurisdiction. When General Noriega was formally charged last week, his lawyers waived an immediate bail hearing. +Judge Hoeveler scheduled a bail hearing for Jan. 26. It was not clear whether General Noriega would be kept until then in the courthouse cell, or in a relatively more secure site like the Metropolitan Correctional Center. +Lawyer Says Move Was Set +'They want to move him and they can't move him until they give him that opportunity to ask for bail,' said Richard D. Gregorie, the former prosecutor here who brought the indictment of General Noriega on drug trafficking charges in 1988. +Frank A. Rubino, a lawyer for General Noriega, said in an interview after the hearing that he had been told earlier by Federal authorities that his client would be moved tonight to a Federal penitentiary, probably Atlanta. But after the hearing was unexpectedly scheduled today, he said, the defense decided to ask the court to delay any move. +At the hearing, Dexter Lehtinen, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of Florida, who is prosecuting the drug-trafficking case against the general, repeatedly indicated to the court that officials were about to move General Noriega. He said he was telling the court of plans for an imminent move in case the defense had objections. +Steven Kollin, another lawyer for General Noriega, said he interpreted Mr. Lehtinen's comments as 'a warning on the horizon from the United States Attorney's office.' He also asserted that 'we're going to object strenuously if our client is not in the southern district' of Florida. +Judge Hoeveler then said General Noriega should not be moved until the judge is notified and has been involved in discussions with the defense and prosecution lawyers. +When Samuel I. Burstyn, a lawyer for a co-defendant, Lieut. Col. Luis del Cid, asked the judge if the United States Marshals Service, which is responsible for guarding General Noriega, should be notified, the judge replied jokingly, 'If there's anything we don't lack in this courtroom, it's a marshal.' +The packed courtroom, where the presence of Federal marshals was obvious, broke up in laughter. +Noriega Is Impassive +General Noriega sat impassively during the proceedings as he listened to a Spanish translation through headsets. He appeared in a light blue cotton shirt opened at the collar, black pleated trousers and new white slip-on sneakers and white socks. +He said nothing to the court. Mr. Rubino spoke to him only once, whispering in his ear at the end of the appearance as the general nodded in agreement. Federal marshals escorted the defendant into the modern courtroom shortly after the hearing began and accompanied him out as soon as it was over. +General Noriega's lawyers said they did not request a bond hearing themselves because they did not think an internationally known figure like General Noriega would get bail, and because they thought a bail request would be an admission that the court had jurisdiction in the case. To get bail, the lawyers would have to prove that General Noriega was not a danger to the community and not a risk to flee. +Documents to Be Under Seal +Judge Hoeveler also ruled that any classified documents in the case would be kept under seal, an action that came at the request of the prosecution and defense lawyers. Secret Government documents are expected to play a major role in this case since for years General Noriega was an informer to national security agencies in the United States. +General Noriega was indicted by a grand jury here in 1988 on charges that he received $4.6 million in bribes from leaders of the Medellin cocaine drug ring in exchange for turning Panama into a haven for drug traffickers and money laundering. He was indicted on separate charges in Tampa but will be tried here first." +False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Diplomacy +LEAD: Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega, the Panamanian leader, comes back to haunt the Bush Administration this week as the Organization of American States wrestles again with the question of his ouster. +Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega, the Panamanian leader, comes back to haunt the Bush Administration this week as the Organization of American States wrestles again with the question of his ouster. +To date, the diplomacy of the O.A.S. has been no more effective than the bellicose threats of the Reagan Administration in persuading General Noriega to step aside. +Having committed itself to multinational diplomacy, the United States cannot easily back away from that course, although so far it has produced few results, and much frustration for the Bush Administration. +'There is great hope that the O.A.S. mission will succeed, although not high expectations of that success,' said J. Brian Atwood, president of the National Democratic Institute for International Affairs, which sponsored a team of observers sent to Panama for the May 7 elections. +Juan B. Sosa, the Panamanian Ambassador to the United States, who opposes General Noriega, said that talks between the Noriega regime and opposition parties had not made any significant progress, and he said bluntly that the O.A.S. 'does not have the will' to take strong action against the military strongman. +Asked if the negotiations were making progress, Michael G. Kozak, a State Department lawyer who has been entangled with Panama in one way or another for 18 years, said, 'I'm not going out and buying any champagne.' +The Administration's experience with the O.A.S. is not likely to encourage American officials to turn to the 31-member hemispheric group again any time soon. At the first meeting of foreign ministers to consider the situation in Panama, on May 17, the United States had to struggle just to get the name of General Noriega included in the resolution condemning electoral abuses. +If experience is any guide, the O.A.S meeting, scheduled for 3 P.M. Wednesday, will begin around 7:30, adjourn for consultations over dinner and then reconvene around 11 P.M. for inconclusive action. +Invariably in O.A.S. resolutions, calls for General Noriega to give up power are balanced with admonitions to the effect that no nation may intervene in the internal affairs of another. +Official American interest in Panama seems to ebb and flow, for reasons unrelated to any change in the situation there. Merely by denouncing General Noriega or dropping a hint that he might be kidnapped to face trial in the United States, the White House or the State Department can revive an atmosphere of crisis. The sense of crisis quickly dissipates, even though the general continues to violate the civil liberties of his people and continues to harass American servicemen in Panama. +Guillermo Quijano, a Panamanian opposition leader, lamented the fact that General Noriega had minimized his conflict with the Panamanian people and focused worldwide attention instead on his confrontation with the United States. Mr. Quijano predicted that General Noriega would install another 'puppet government' on Sept. 1, when the constitutional mandate of the current Noriega-backed regime expires. +President Bush and Secretary of State James A. Baker 3d will be on vacation when O.A.S. foreign ministers meet here Wednesday. In a stunning acceptance of what seems obvious and inevitable, American officials said they would no longer insist that General Noriega leave Panama, only that he surrender power. +To the distress of some opposition leaders, the United States has also acquiesced in the idea that Panama should hold a new Presidential election. The opposition leaders see no reason for a new vote because they contend that they won the May 7 election by a margin of at least 3 to 1, and observers, including former President Jimmy Carter, agree. +Opposition leaders fear that the Noriega regime may crack down on them as Panama goes through an uneasy political transition in the next two weeks.

He is, people in Washington say, a spoiler Secretary of State. +'Oh mercy, of course not,' the 67-year-old Republican Senator says in response. 'I just have my opinions and my agenda. I just take a swipe at the ball when it comes over the plate, and I do the best I can.' +This month, Senator Helms seemed to be doing his best to outdo himself. Criticism and Fire +Racing to the Senate floor the day after the collapse of the attempted coup in Panama, he criticized the Bush Administration for incompetence with the same oratorical fire that back home earned him the honor of Grand Orator of the Grand Lodge of Masons of North Carolina. Using information gathered by his staff, the Senator asserted that the United States had failed to respond to pleas by Panamanian rebels for crucial help. +Senior officials at the White House seethed. At a White House meeting, Brent Scowcroft, the national security adviser, and John H. Sununu, the chief of staff, railed at two of Mr. Helms's aides who refused to disclose their sources. +'My personal feeling is that the Senator was badly misserved by his staff,' said one senior White House official. The Senate speech, the official said, was 'so factually inaccurate that I suspect the Senator will feel uncomfortable when it is analyzed.' +Not so, Mr. Helms insisted. 'I've got no apologies to anybody,' he said. 'I wouldn't take back one syllable.' Courtship by Baker Incidents like the Panama crisis have helped give Mr. Helms an importance out of proportion to his position as the ranking minority member of the Foreign Relations Committee. Conscious of Mr. Helms's power to wreak havoc on carefully planned policy, Secretary of State James A. Baker 3d has courted him, seeking his advice and assistance in frequent telephone conversations or at lunch at the State Department. +'There's not a separate Jesse Helms strategy,' said a senior official at the State Department, 'but it's fair to say that the Secretary has a strong desire to keep the Senator in the loop on things.' +As for the President, those who know Mr. Helms well say he and Mr. Bush are like oil and water. To Mr. Helms, who quit college to become a newspaperman, the President represents the kind of privilege that he disdains. +'There are certain philosophical and cultural views that Jesse doesn't share with the President,' said Richard S. Williamson, a former Assistant Secretary of State who has known Mr. Helms since they worked together on the 1976 Republican Party platform. 'Worse than being a liberal is being a pragmatist, and worse than that is being an Eastern Establishment Ivy League WASP.' +Publicly, Mr. Helms remains a Bush loyalist. He was not happy with Ronald Reagan's choice of Mr. Bush as a Vice Presidential candidate in 1980 and made that clear. But when Mr. Bush asked Mr. Helms to show up at a North Carolina campaign stop last year, Mr. Helms drove himself there despite the fact that he was recovering from a hernia operation. +As evidence of his friendship with Mr. Bush, the Senator told of a recent visit to the Oval Office when the President offered to help when Mr. Helms is up for re-election next year. ' 'I'm ready and we'll work it out if you're ready,' ' Mr. Helms quoted the President as saying. 'I told him that's one of the nicest things anyone ever said to me.' Bad Feelings Are Denied +Similarly, the White House insisted there were no bad feelings because of Panama. 'I certainly don't feel that the Senator has any specific feelings against the Administration,' Mr. Sununu said in an interview. 'I don't think the President feels that. I've considered the Senator a friend for a long time and feel very comfortable talking with him about issues and asking him for help.' +Mr. Helms listens to cassettes of Winston Churchill's speeches in his 1984 Oldsmobile and unwinds by playing along with 'Jeopardy' and 'Wheel of Fortune,' two of his favorite television programs. +A two-finger typist, he uses an old Royal typewriter and pecks out dozens of letters every week to his constituents. And he puffs half-heartedly on unfiltered Lucky Strikes, which sits well with the tobacco lobby back in North Carolina. +But if he is a cocker spaniel in his personal life, Mr. Helms is a pit bull in the Senate. Not Trying to Get Along +'If you don't have a set of principles and you try to be popular, that's when you go nuts,' Mr. Helms said, 'and I have no intention of going nuts. +'I didn't come to Washington to be a yes man for any President, Democrat or Republican. I didn't come to Washington to get along and win any popularity contests.' +Indeed, people who have known the Senator for years say his tactics -large doses of anti-Communism and lectures often served up with filibusters and last-ditch amendments, all of them time-consuming, many of them tiresome - have left him few friends among his colleagues. +'He is a true believer who's often out in left field all by himself,' said Tom Ellis, a lawyer in Raleigh, N.C., who ran Mr. Helms's first Senate campaign in 1972. +Mr. Williamson, the former Assistant Secretary of State and a fellow conservative, put it this way: 'Jesse is the skunk at the garden party, and he doesn't mind it one bit.' A Classic Performance +A classic Helms performance came recently when he sharply cut off Senator Claiborne Pell, the courtly Rhode Island Democrat who is chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee. In an effort to accommodate the Administration's request to move a proposal to send $9 million in election aid to the Nicaraguan opposition without a committee vote, Mr. Pell explained, 'We are trying to accommodate the President. We felt at that point --' +An angry Senator Helms interrupted, 'You felt that you were going to snooker us is what you felt.' +The exchanges in last year's Senate debate on the intermediate-range nuclear forces treaty were even more vitriolic. At one point, Senator Richard G. Lugar, an Indiana Republican who supported the treaty, accused Mr. Helms of gratuitous attempts to modify the treaty, calling his stalling tactics 'ridiculous.' +'I want to challenge you on the business of being ridiculous,' Mr. Helms responded to Mr. Lugar, who had supported economic sanctions because of South Africa's apartheid policies. 'We could go back to South Africa and some of your stands, and we can talk about what's ridiculous.' +It was a position that Mr. Lugar had promoted when he was chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee from 1984 to 1986. Mr. Helms had chosen to be chairman of the Agriculture Committee, a North Carolina necessity, but when the Democrats won a majority in the Senate, Mr. Helms insisted on exercising the seniority principle and displacing Mr. Lugar as the ranking committee Republican. Staff Is Independent +Mr. Helms, who gets much of the ammunition for his arguments from his committee staff, a committed group that includes former journalists who know how to get their views across. It was Mr. Helms's staff that amassed data on the Panama situation, telephoning Administration officials and Panamanian exiles in contact with the coup leaders and even phoning members of the Panamanian military while the coup attempt was in progress. +But some staff members are so independent that they have been known to make decisions without informing their boss. When Senator Lugar tried to pass a resolution congratulating South Korea for successfully holding the Summer Olympics last year, a member of Mr. Helms's staff said it could not be done. Mr. Lugar telephoned Mr. Helms for an explanation, and the Senator not only agreed to support the resolution but also to co-sponsor it. +In terms of concrete results, Mr. Helms's record is not particularly impressive. This year he delayed but did not stop the confirmation of Richard R. Burt as President Bush's negotiator for the strategic arms limitation talks. He was unable to push through an amendment limiting the Administration's contacts with the Palestine Liberation Organization. And his attempt to block the Administration from aiding the Presidential campaign of the Nicaraguan opposition seems doomed. +Back home, his tactics - which also applied to blocking the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday or to trying to stop Federal money for what he called 'obscene' and 'indecent' art - have earned him the sobriquet 'Senator No.' The Democrats, who are having trouble finding a candidate to run against him next year, are expected to argue that Mr. Helms spends too much time on issues irrelevant to North Carolina. +'The Senator knows how to manipulate the rules to his advantage, to slow things down and to grandstand on the issues,' said Mark Helmke, a private consultant who served as press secretary to Senator Lugar. 'But eventually he loses. People point to the fact that he screams and shouts, but forget that in the end he doesn't win.'" +False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Bush Aide Invokes Privilege On '85 Session About Panama +LEAD: A top aide to Vice President Bush invoked executive privilege today when asked what was said about narcotics when Mr. Bush met with the United States ambassador to Panama in 1985. +A top aide to Vice President Bush invoked executive privilege today when asked what was said about narcotics when Mr. Bush met with the United States ambassador to Panama in 1985. +In a three-hour deposition, Col. Samuel J. Watson 3d, deputy national security adviser to Mr. Bush, did answer some questions posed by Lewis Pitts, the attorney for a group of plaintiffs in a private civil lawsuit. Colonel Watson's lawyer, Richard Stearns, later said the privilege applies because it covers conversations of the President and Vice President. +Colonel Watson said he had prepared a memorandum to set up Mr. Bush's Dec. 16, 1985, meeting with Ambassador Everett Ellis Briggs in Mr. Bush's office. Mr. Briggs wanted to discuss a situation involving Nicolas Ardito Barletta, who had been ousted as Panama's president by Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega, and the subject of narcotics, Colonel Watson said. Bush and Top Aides at Session +Colonel Watson testified in the sworn deposition that he was present at the meeting along with Mr. Bush's top national security aide, Donald P. Gregg, and an official from the State Department. +But when asked what Mr. Briggs told Mr. Bush on the subject of narcotics, Mr. Stearns objected and instructed Colonel Watson not to answer on grounds of executive privilege. +Mr. Bush has repeatedly denied that he was aware of any clear evidence of such involvement by Mr. Noriega before last February, when the general was indicted by two grand juries in Florida on drug charges. Mr. Bush's Democratic opponents in the Presidential campaign have questioned how much the Vice President knew about Mr. Noriega's alleged drug involvement. +Mr. Pitts asked Colonel Watson whether narcotics was discussed at all in the meeting in Mr. Bush's office. +'I don't recall specifically whether they were or not,' Colonel Watson said. 'I could make that assumption, but I will not state it as a certainty.' He added that he had since searched for any memorandum summarizing the meeting but could find no such a document. +The New York Times reported on May 8 that Mr. Briggs told Mr. Bush at the 1985 meeting of allegations that General Noriega was involved in the drug trade, with that information attributed to senior officials of the Reagan Administration, whom the newspaper did not identify. Mr. Briggs later disputed the account. 'Vague, Unsubstantiated Rumors' +Colonel Watson said at the deposition that he had only a vague knowledge of narcotics issues involving Panama at that time. 'There were vague, unsubstantiated rumors around,' he said, that people in the Panamanian Defense Forces 'were facilitating trafficking of drugs.' +Colonel Watson's statements came in a deposition for a $24 million damage and racketeering lawsuit charging that a group of defendants supplied the Nicaraguan rebels with weapons in exchange for cocaine. The suit also accuses the group of planning the May 1984 bombing that injured the rebel leader Eden Pastora in southeastern Nicaragua near the Costa Rican border." +False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"The Noriega Case: Television; President Complains About TV's Use of Split Images +LEAD: President Bush complained yesterday that by juxtaposing pictures of him in a jocular mood during a news conference last month and the arrival of the bodies of American soldiers killed in Panama, some television news organizations had made him appear insensitive to the deaths. +President Bush complained yesterday that by juxtaposing pictures of him in a jocular mood during a news conference last month and the arrival of the bodies of American soldiers killed in Panama, some television news organizations had made him appear insensitive to the deaths. +Mr. Bush asked the networks for advance warning the next time they plan to use split-screen technique. 'I would respectfully request that if the urgency of the moment is such that that technique is going to be used, if I could be told about it,' Mr. Bush said at his news conference yesterday, 'and we'll stop the proceedings.' +Network news executives said yesterday that the use of the technique had generated heated debate at the networks along with letters from viewers, many of whom said they felt the coverage had been intended to put Mr. Bush in a negative light. +While some executives sympathized with Mr. Bush, they said the White House had to share some blame for what proved to be an embarrassing situation. But they stopped short of saying they would notify the President in advance if such a situation were to arise again. +Letters to President +The President's news conference on Dec. 21 took place within moments of the arrival of the bodies of four American soldiers at the United States Air Force base in Dover, Del. Mr. Bush said that because ABC, CBS and the Cable News Network showed what he characterized as 'my frivolous comments at the time' side by side with the return of American dead, viewers had written him saying they felt that 'their President, in a solemn moment like that didn't give a damn.' +'And I do, I do,' the President said. He was not aware at the time that the events in Washington and Dover were being shown side by side. +But some network executives asserted that while they understood the President's embarrassment, they had been surprised by his casual demeanor during the news conference. +Few Options, Networks Say +While the news conference had been scheduled before the Panama invasion on Dec. 20, the executives said, the time was not set until hours before it took place, leaving the networks with few options for covering both Mr. Bush and the arrival ceremony. +'CBS News had planned live coverage of the arrival ceremony long before the White House announced the press appearance in the White House briefing room,' the president of CBS News, David W. Burke, said through a spokesman yesterday. 'It was our judgment that we had the responsibility to broadcast live a brief portion of the arrival ceremony, which occured simultaneous with the President's briefing.' +Ed Turner, the executive vice president for news gathering at CNN, said: 'We began with full screen of the President in the White House briefing room. Shortly thereafter, the live pictures came up from Dover, the caskets being moved from the belly of the airplane to a hanger. We then created the two-box look, with the President talking and the silent picture of the caskets moving with an honor guard. That went on pretty much for the duration.' +'I supported the technique because oddly, you had a confluence of events,' Mr. Turner continued, 'the President discussing the dead and the injured in Panama, with the eerie coincidence of being able to cover the return live. I know it was not done with editorial intent, to make the President look bad. But I believe it was a fair and honest treatment of two major events.' +When he saw the split image, Roone Arledge, the president of ABC News, called the broadcast control room and ordered the return to a full picture of the President. The ABC News anchor, Peter Jennings, explained to viewers that Mr. Bush did not know the technique was being used. When the news conference was over, Mr. Jennings apologized to viewers for the use of the technique. Through a spokesman, Scott Richardson, Mr. Arledge said yesterday that he agreed with the President's assessment. +Lloyd Siegel, the executive producer of news coverage at NBC News, said his division determined not to use a split screen specifically because of fears that the coverage might cast the President in a negative light. But NBC News, like the other news organizations, said it would not alert the White House in advance of a future decision to use the technique. +'Today, President Bush, as is his right, called our judgment, but not our intent, into question,' Mr. Burke, of CBS News, said.

Michael S. Dukakis denounced the Reagan Administration's drug policies today as 'criminal' and 'absurd,' making his strongest statements yet on an emotional issue that has been central to the 1988 Presidential campaign. +The Democratic Presidential nominee continued what campaign aides said was a new effort to focus his attacks more directly on Vice President Bush, by ridiculing Mr. Bush's campaign pledge to put his own Vice President in charge of anti-drug programs. +'President Reagan tried that, and it didn't work,' Mr. Dukakis said, adding that on his first day in office he would appoint a Cabinet-level official to direct all anti-drug programs Using the Drug Issue Speaking in Cleveland before he flew to Pittsburgh for a campaign rally and a tour of a steel mill. Mr. Dukakis said he would devote more foreign aid to other nations' efforts to stop drug production and trafficking. But he said he would also use the threat of withholding aid as leverage to win those governments' help in stopping drug shipments to the United States. +Mr. Dukakis, Governor of Masssachusetts, has used the drug issue to attack the Reagan Administration and to display toughness on law and order and national security. Both are issues on which he has been regularly attacked by his opponents. +Dayton Duncan, Mr. Dukakis's press secretary, said the candidate was trying to personalize his attacks on Mr. Bush by focusing on programs in which the Vice President played a specific role, like trade with Japan and the war on drugs. Mr. Dukakis spoke about trade with Japan on Wednesday in Washington and Grand Rapids, Mich. +Much of what Mr. Dukakis has said about drugs recently has focused on cutting domestic consumption. In today's speech, he dealt primarily with stopping drug production abroad and ending imports to the United States. Cuts in Aid Are Questioned +'The drug cancer is eating away the foundation of fragile democracies throughout this hemisphere,' Mr. Dukakis said in the cavernous rotunda of the Cuyahoga County Courthouse. 'It's corrupting governments, destroying economies, ravaging communities, spawning terror and crippling lives. It's the single greatest cause of violence in the Americas today.' +He said, 'The first responsibility of the President, under our Constitution, is to provide for the common defense.' But he said Federal aid to state and local drug law-enforcement agencies had been cut by two-thirds 'while Mr. Bush wants to spend tens of billions of dollars over the next eight years on Star Wars.' +'Why,' he asked, 'after seven years of task forces and policy boards and grandiose claims, have cocaine imports tripled, drug-related deaths doubled, and heroin imports risen by 50 percent?' Ties With Noriega +Mr. Dukakis said that last year, the United States spent 'almost twice as much trying to overthrow the government of Nicaragua as we did in the war against drugs in all of Latin America.' 'My friends, that's absurd,' he said. He called the withdrawal of American drug agents from Honduras in 1983 'ridiculous' and added, 'For years, while General Noriega of Panama was actively involved in the drug business, we were doing business with General Noriega.' +'My friends, that is criminal,' Mr. Dukakis said. +'How can we ask our neighbors in Latin America to crack down on drugs when we have an Administration that's in bed with one of the biggest thugs on the continent?' he asked. +Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega, Panama's leader, is under Federal indictment in Florida on drug trafficking charges. Earlier this year, the Reagan Administration attempted to negotiate a plan with General Noriega to step down, but the plan collapsed. +In his speech today, Mr. Dukakis called for 'a leadership that understands Latin America, leadership that cares about stopping the flow of drugs into our country, leadership that can forge a new Pan-American alliance against drugs.'

Manuel Antonio Noriega to be tried as a pauper, entitled to only two defense lawyers, unless his lawyers and the Government succeed by Friday in obtaining access to the millions of dollars in the deposed Panamanaian dictator's frozen overseas bank accounts. +The Federal district judge in the case, William M. Hoeveler, announced his intentions at a hearing conducted in the aftermath of last week's broadcast by Cable News Network of what it said were taped conversations between the general and members of his defense team. +The general now has three lawyers, who said they might be forced to quit rather than work for the money they would have to accept as court-appointed lawyers. +At the hearing today, the tape issue spread another layer of confusion over the Government's increasingly tangled drug trafficking case against the general and attracted more than two dozen civil and criminal lawyers to a session originally scheduled as a routine conference on the status of the case. Judge Wants Quick Resolution +Judge Hoeveler told the lawyers that his desire to resolve the issue of lawyers' fees quickly was motivated at least in part because he wanted to accelerate the pace of the case to avoid future disruptions like the looming constitutional battle provoked by CNN's use of the taped conversation between General Noriega and a member of his defense team. +""The need for this case to go to trial has never been made more clear as it has in the last three or four days,"" said Judge Hoeveler. ""This case has got to get to trial."" +CNN has agreed not to play any more taped conversations between General Noriega and members of his defense team until the Supreme Court decides whether to hear the network's appeal of Judge Hoeveler's order barring their playing. The recordings were of telephone calls the general made from the Florida prison where he is being held. +At one point at the hearing today, Samuel I. Burstyn, a lawyer for Luis Del Cid, one of the general's co-defendants, demanded the appointment of a special prosecutor to investigate who made the tapes and whether any Government agency had eavesdropped on the conversations between General Noriega and his lawyers, or the discussions between other defendants and their legal advisers. Judge Hoeveler denied the request. +In addition, lawyers for the current Government of President Guillermo Endara of Panama, which has filed a $6.5 billion lawsuit against General Noriega and associates, announced at the hearing that they were acting separately to obtain a restraining order to prevent the general from moving some of his money. This was despite his lawyers' problems in obtaining the money for legal fees. Doubts About Moving Money +The motion by the lawyers in the civil case came after one tape broadcast by CNN suggested that the general was trying to transport millions of dollars through an unidentified courier. But the judge said, ""If they are moving money, it is not being moved in this direction."" +The general also attended today's session, in his first appearance in public since the tape issue surfaced. He wore the crisply pressed uniform of a four-star general in the now defunct Panamanaian Defense Force, with dark brown trousers and a tan short-sleeved shirt. +The former leader, pale from his months of confinement, listened to a simultaneous Spanish translation of the proceedings through earphones. He stared straight ahead or into his lap, at times closing his eyes or tapping the earpiece of his headset. +After the hearing, General Noriega's lawyers said that since his arrest they had received no fees and might be forced to withdraw if the general is only allowed two lawyers who would be paid $75 an hour. This is the amount allowed under the Federal law that establishes procedures for legal representation of indigent defendants, said Jon May, one the general's lawyers. Lawyers to Make Proposal +But at the hearing scheduled for Friday, they said that they planned to present Judge Hoeveler with two proposals to get more money for the general's defense. They declined to explain how those funds might be obtained. +In addition to the three lawyers, the general has legal support personnel. The Government has a far larger team, and six prosecutors were present in court today. +The fee issue arose in June when the judge directed the Government to lift its freeze on $6 million in foreign bank accounts owned by the general. Since then the Government has said it has sought to obtain funds from five accounts, three in France and one each in Switzerland and Austria. Foreign Countries Resist +At the hearing, Drew C. Arena, a lawyer in the Justice Department's criminal division, said that judicial authorities in each country had resisted the department's request to lift the freeze on General Noriega's accounts. +The accounts were frozen last December and January at the request of the United States after its invasion of Panama. But Mr. Arena said that since then the authorities in each of the countries had invoked their own laws to block access to accounts that might contain proceeds from drug trafficking. Now, these officials are unwilling to rescind those actions unless the United States asserts that the money was not tied to drug trafficking, Mr. Arena said . +""Thus,"" said Judge Hoeveler, ""you have no idea when if ever we will ever be able to secure those assets."" +""I believe that's a fair characterization,"" replied Mr. Arena. +Frank A. Rubino, General Noriega's chief defense lawyer, expressed irritation over the Government's professions of helplessness. ""They sure have been letting us waste a lot of time and a lot of energy trying to unfreeze bank accounts that they have no ability to unfreeze.""" +False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"COURT GETS PLEAS ON NORIEGA TAPES +Asserting that ""the First Amendment is part of the rule of law, not above it,"" the Justice Department today urged the Supreme Court to permit a lower court's order barring the broadcast of tapes of Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega's conversations with his defense team to remain in effect temporarily. +In a 20-page brief filed with the Justices this morning, the Government forcefully disputed the assertion by Cable News Network that a restraining order issued in Miami last week by Federal District Judge William H. Hoeveler is unconstitutional. +Rather, the department's brief said, the ""carefully crafted"" 10-day order is ""both sensible and consistent"" with Supreme Court precedents as a way for the judge to review the tapes and determine whether the more drastic measure of a permanent order barring the broadcasts might be justified to protect General Noriega's right to a fair trial. +CNN asked the Supreme Court on Thursday to lift the order, which was upheld by a Federal appeals court panel in Atlanta. Last week, the network broadcast a portion of one tape recording of a telephone conversation between the deposed Panamanian leader and his legal defense team, and it is asserting a right under the First Amendment to broadcast others it says it has obtained. U.S. Violation Is Asserted +The network asserts that the recordings, made by the Bureau of Prisons from General Noriega's telephone at the Federal prison in Florida where he is awaiting trial on narcotics charges, are evidence of Government interference with General Noriega's right to private communication with his defense lawyers. +Lawyers for General Noriega also filed a brief with the Supreme Court today opposing CNN's request to the Justices to lift the restraining order. The Supreme Court had requested the unusual Saturday filing from the Government and the Noriega defense alike. But there was no indication of when the Court might act. +The briefs from the Justice Department and General Noriega's lawyers differed in one notable respect. The general's lawyers, Frank A. Rubino and Jon May, said that the case ""presents fundamental questions concerning the balance between the First Amendment right of freedom of the press and the Sixth Amendment right of the accused to a fair trial and the effective assistance of counsel."" Full Hearing Is Sought +For that reason, the lawyers said, the Justices should accept CNN's appeal for full briefing and argument, while keeping the restraining order in effect in the meantime. +By contrast, the Government's brief said that the case at this point ""is quite narrow"" and does not present fundamental issues that the Court needs to resolve now. The brief, signed by Solicitor General Kenneth W. Starr and three other Justice Department lawyers, told the Justices: +""There will be time enough for the lower courts and this Court to consider whether a lasting prior restraint over publication of privileged attorney-client communications is permissible to insure a fair trial, when we know whether petitioners' tapes contain such communications, and whether -- given their contents -- such an injunction would be the only effective alternative. We do not yet know that. Review by this Court is thus, at the least, premature."" +The Government said it agreed with CNN that ""under the First Amendment, a lasting prior restraint on publication may be justified only in the most extraordinary circumstances."" +But the department's brief continued: ""But the rule of law requires permitting a court to determine if those circumstances exist. This may or may not be the rare case in which a lasting prior restraint is justified. The district court entered the challenged orders to find out."" +The Government said that in its precedents invalidating prior restraints, the Court had ""at least a sufficient description of the material sought to be published"" from which to conclude that the asserted reasons for blocking publication were inadequate. In the Supreme Court's leading precedent on the unconstitutionality of prior restraints, a 1976 decision called Nebraska Press Association v. Stuart, the Court overturned a trial judge's order that barred the press from reporting on courtroom testimony about an accused murderer's confession. 'Informed Decision' Questioned +The Government's brief today emphasized that, by contrast, Judge Hoeveler had no basis on which to make an ""informed decision"" on whether broadcast of the tapes would jeopardize General Noriega's rights, because CNN refused to permit him to listen to the tapes. +In the brief it filed Thursday, CNN said that the fact the Court in the Nebraska case found that even ""highly prejudicial"" information about a sensational murder case could be published indicated that Judge Hoeveler was unjustified in barring broadcast of the tapes when there was only speculation that any information on them could hurt General Noriega's defense. +Judge Hoeveler issued an order restaining the network from playing the tapes for 10 days so that he could review their contents. Later, CNN played a portion of the taped conversation between the general and a member of his defense team.

Manuel Antonio Noriega today interviewed three people who served on the jury to determine whether one had been improperly pressured to reach a verdict earlier this spring. +The inquiry was at the request of Mr. Noriega's lawyers to investigate assertions that prayer sessions were held to change the mind of a female juror who had wanted to acquit the deposed Panamanian ruler. The lawyers have said that the sessions could be the basis of an appeal, but today they said that no appeal on those grounds was planned. +After a hearing this morning, the judge, William M. Hoeveler, of Federal District Court, said he would not make any further inquiry into the deliberations, but he told General Noriega's chief counsel in the trial, Frank A. Rubino, that the defense had 15 days to file an appeal based on possible irregularities in jurors' conduct. +General Noriega was convicted April 9 after a seven-month trial on eight counts of cocaine trafficking, money laundering and racketeering. He is scheduled to be sentenced July 10. He faces a maximum of 120 years in prison. +Several jurors have told how deliberations were slowed by a single holdout juror who they said had her mind made up that Mr. Noriega was not guilty. They described Ms. Cooper as a religious, saying that on several occasions she had joined other church-going jurors in praying for guidance." +False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Washington Talk: The Pentagon; What Terrifies the Toughest Soldiers? A Civilian Military Plan +LEAD: The Joint Chiefs of Staff and other senior military officers, long wary of their civilian superiors' penchant for making what they see as ill-considered plans for employing the armed forces in crises, have had their mistrust renewed by recent proposals to deploy combat troops to Panama. +The Joint Chiefs of Staff and other senior military officers, long wary of their civilian superiors' penchant for making what they see as ill-considered plans for employing the armed forces in crises, have had their mistrust renewed by recent proposals to deploy combat troops to Panama. +In private conversations, military officers were emphatic in denouncing a State Department plan to send several thousand American soldiers to Panama to establish President Eric Arturo Delvalle, who has been in hiding, in office on an American base there. A staff officer called it a 'cockamamie scheme.' +Betraying a sentiment that bordered on scorn, the officers cited the death of 241 marines, sailors and soldiers in the truck bombing of a Marine billet at the Beirut airport in Lebanon in 1983. The officers asserted that vague instructions from political leaders had contributed to that disaster. Emotional Scars of Vietnam +Even deeper-seated among today's military leaders is the belief that the politicians, the press and public of the Vietnam era hung them out to twist in the wind without support, without clear-cut objectives and without permitting them to win. +This mistrust of political leaders, not only of the Reagan Administration but of both political parties, will continue into the next administration regardless of who is elected in November because it is pervasive and embedded in a whole generation of officers. +Most officers ranking from lieutenant colonel to full general today served in the Vietnam War and carry the emotional scars of that conflict. They are not only the present but the future leaders of the armed forces, which means that the nation's political leaders will be confronted with their reluctance, sometimes known as the Vietnam Syndrome, for many years. +'Why don't we want to go to Panama?' a young general asked. 'Because of Vietnam, pure and simple. We've been in that stuff before.' But all were quick to add that if political leaders ordered feasible and carefully defined military missions, they would salute and move out. The Joint Chiefs, for instance, supported the decision to invade Grenada in 1983, even though the mission was revised several times in the making. They also readily agreed to the bombing of Libya in 1986. Weinberger's 6 Criteria +'There is not a reluctance to use military force when there are clearly defined reasons,' said a staff officer, 'when there is something military for them to do.' +Many officers referred to six criteria for applying military power set out by former Secretary of Defense Caspar W. Weinberger in November 1984, as part of a running debate with Secretary of State George P. Shultz over the use of force as an instrument of national policy. +Mr. Weinberger said troops should be committed only when 'vital to our national interest' and 'with the clear intention of winning.' He said the United States 'should have clearly defined political and military objectives' and the forces must be commensurate with those objectives. +'There must be some reasonable assurance we will have the support of the American people and their elected representatives in Congress,' Mr. Weinberger said. Finally, combat forces should be used only as a last resort. +In case after case in recent discussions on this issue, military officers echoed the remarks of an officer who said, 'Deploying combat troops to Panama met none of those criteria.' Or, as several others said, repeating each other almost word for word, 'If we go to Panama, what is it you want us to do?' Plan to Send Troops +Mr. Weinberger's successor, Frank C. Carlucci, subscribed to most of what Mr. Weinberger had said but, in his confirmation hearing before the Senate Armed Services Committee last November, entered a caveat: 'I don't know that it's always feasible to have full political consensus before you go ahead with a military operation. There are times when the President needs to move military forces in advance of total agreement of the body politic.' +The current wariness toward political leaders and the ease with which they envision using military force was triggered by a plan that Pentagon officials said had been drawn up by the Assistant Secretary of State for Inter-American Affairs, Elliott Abrams. +It called for dispatching two brigades of about 3,000 soldiers each to Panama, where they would bring Mr. Delvalle out of hiding and under the protection of an American base as he sought to regain control of the Panamanian Government. Kidnapping Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega, Panama's military leader, was also contemplated, the officers said. 'Implications Are Frightening' +'Can you imagine what that would have done to our base rights and negotiations elsewhere - the Philippines, Greece, Turkey, Spain - if we had set up a dissident government on a U.S. base?' asked an officer. 'The implications are frightening.' +Another officer expressed anxiety over the safety of American civilians who are dependents of the 10,000 American military people there, or who are working for the United States or on the Panama Canal, or who are in business there. +'We're looking at 13,000 dependents who would be hostage bait,' said a general. +Still another said that General Noriega was preparing for guerrilla war against the United States by 'stacking Cuban arms in the hills.' Officers said they doubted that the American public, remembering Vietnam, would support a long counter-insurgency operation. +When President Reagan deployed 3,500 troops to Honduras in a show of force against Nicaragua last month, the officers noted, there were scattered protests around the United States. Some were specifically directed against military recruiting stations. 'Kidnapping Is a Crime' +Many officers said that political sentiment in Panama was certain to turn against the United States if combat troops intervened there. 'Any move like that,' said a general, 'would be seen as an effort by the United States to renege on the treaty.' He referred to the pact under which Panama is to assume full control of the canal on Dec. 31, 1999. +Concerning the plan to capture General Noriega, an Army officer was vehement: 'Kidnapping is a crime. Under what international law would you have us do that?' +But it was the deployment of American forces in Beirut to which the officers repeatedly returned. +'We lacked clearly defined objectives there,' said one officer. Marines were sent in to guarantee the evacuation of troops of the Palestine Liberation Organization after their defeat by Israel in 1982. +After being pulled out, the marines were sent back to Beirut to keep warring factions apart and to support the Lebanese Government. But Marine Corps officers have long asserted that the rules of engagement, which governed the way they operated and when they could shoot, were never clear. Memories of Vietnam +Even more than Beirut, the officers brought up Vietnam. Several years ago, William J. Taylor, of the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a research organization here, and David H. Petraeus, an Army officer, published a paper in which they concluded: +'The military has traditionally regarded their politicians and political appointees with some apprehension. Vietnam heightened this feeling, leaving America's senior military leaders with a more deep-seated suspicion of their civilian leaders.' +During a conversation last week in the Pentagon an Army officer, nodding toward the State Department across the Potomac River, was less elegant.

It is complete except for a 70-mile stretch that crosses two national parks, one on either side of the Colombia-Panama border. +As currently planned, the highway would cross the southwestern tip of the 172,800-acre Los Katios National Park and some private land in Colombia, and run through the middle of the 1.3-million-acre Darien National Park in Panama. +The Colombian Government, seeking to modernize the economy and develop free-trade pacts and foreign investment, has embarked on a $6 billion, four-year plan to improve the road system. But preservation groups object to completing the highway through Los Katios, and even the Government's Environment Ministry opposes the plan. +""I think it is outrageous that in this day and age there is still no road to connect the Americas,"" Juan Gomez, the Transportation Minister, said in a recent interview. ""I am going to keep pressing the issue because it is a necessity. To say it can't be done is easy. We have to say, let's find a way for the road to be built without damaging the environment."" +The Government is planning a two-year, $1 million study of the environmental impact of the road before it makes a final decision. +The residents of Puente America, one of the many poor fishing hamlets that border Los Katios, say the road will destroy their pastures but will bring no benefits to them. +""We need someone to explain to us what advantages and disadvantages the road will bring,"" said Juvenal Cuesta, a 50-year-old farmer. ""Before polluting us, the Government should find a source of jobs for our children."" +The Government predicts that the highway would cost $118 million to complete, $85 million for the difficult construction, some of it over swampland, through the 34 miles on the Colombian side of the border.

Environmentalists dismiss this suggestion. +""Who is going to stop the deforestation once the highway is built?"" asks Claudia Leal, a researcher at the Bio-Pacific Project, an internationally backed center overseen by the Environmental Ministry. ""That is impossible."" +The Bio-Pacific Project has studied a 23-mile stretch of the highway that ends 20 miles from the park and was the most recent segment completed, in 1983. It found that by 1992, 60 percent of the forest on both sides of the road had been lost. +Environmentalists worry about other threats to the park. +The area has had a heavy influx of settlers over the last 30 years, and there is illegal logging in areas outside of the park.

Navarro, a main prosecution witness in the case against Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega, led a precarious double life as a Colombian cocaine dealer and Government informer who bartered his contacts in the drug underworld for a life of freedom in the United States. +On Wednesday night, the 41-year-old Mr. Navarro died in a car crash shortly before he was expected to testify in the Federal drug trafficking trial of two of the General's co-defendants. +He was killed when his red 1989 BMW skidded across a street, struck a fence and smashed into an electrical transformer. Witnesses said a red Camaro had been seen fleeing the crash scene, but the police have not confirmed that report. +Although local investigators say they have uncovered no evidence of foul play, the Justice Department is examining the crash, and people who knew Mr. Navarro say they have doubts. ""When the Government's chief witness becomes a cadaver on the eve of trial, yes, that's suspicious,"" said Stephen A. Glass, who was Mr. Navarro's lawyer. Gold Watch and a Ferrari +Mr. Navarro's life spanned a wide arc from poverty to wealth since his birth in Medellin, Colombia, the home of one of the country's dominant cocaine rings. +Years later, he embodied the ethos of the South Florida cocaine culture. ""He was big time,"" said Mr. Glass. He wore a gold Rolex watch, $300 shoes with no socks, linen trousers and Givenchy shirts. When he was on a roll, he drove a Ferrari. ""A real macho guy,"" Mr. Glass said. ""He was right out of Miami Vice."" +Mr. Navarro was expected to be a crucial witness next week in the trial of Brian Alden Davidow and William Saldarriaga, who are charged with conspiring to smuggle 322 kilograms of cocaine into the United States in 1986 aboard a yacht. Both defendants have pleaded not guilty, and their lawyers said Mr. Navarro had fabricated evidence against them. +Prosecutors said Mr. Navarro helped buy the yacht for the deal and could have directly implicated Mr. Davidow and Mr. Saldarriaga. The prosecutors said he would have testified that General Noriega, the deposed leader of Panama, personally approved the deal and that the defendants met with other drug traffickers in Panama to arrange the transaction under the general's protection. Prosecutors said Mr. Navarro's death seriously undercuts their case against the two men, but say they have other witnesses who can provide similar testimony. Knowledge Was Leverage +In a recent hearing in Federal District court, Michael P. Sullivan, the lead prosecutor, admitted to Judge William M. Hoeveler that Mr. Navarro had taken part in a large number of drug shipments.""He's said quite frankly he's committed hundreds,"" Mr. Sullivan said. +In 1987, Mr. Navarro was jailed on a weapons charge but negotiated for his freedom with a powerful bargaining chip, his knowledge of General Noriega's activities at a time when the Drug Enforcement Administration had begun an intensive investigation into his possible involvement in drug trafficking, said lawyers in the case. +He had been convicted in absentia in Colombia on drug charges and later testified that the Medellin drug ring held him responsible for the seizure of the yacht shipment by Colombian police, said Richard Sharpstein, a lawyer for Mr. Davidow. Trapped between his fear of being deported to Colombia and the threat of prosecution in the United States, Mr. Navarro agreed to cooperate with the Government. 'He Needed an Out' +""He couldn't stay in jail because he thought he would be killed,"" Mr. Sharpstein said. ""He couldn't go back to Colombia. He needed an out."" +In exchange for his cooperation, Mr. Navarro received ""absolute total immunity"" for his crimes and payments that Government prosecutors say total $170,000. +The generous terms seemed to reflect Mr. Navarro's importance to the Government's case against the general. ""To give someone a complete free ride is phenomenally beneficial,"" said Mr. Sharpstein. ""Here was the first cartel-level drug dealer who could give them Noriega."" The general is to be tried separately in June on broad drug conspiracy charges. +Mr. Sharpstein said that Mr. Navarro cooperated with the Government in dozens of cases, helping to set up drug arrests and later testifying before grand juries. +Mr. Sharpstein contended that Mr. Navarro did not stop trafficking in illegal drugs while an informer. ""He was free on the street, plus he continued dealing,"" Mr. Sharpstein said. ""He had the best of both worlds."" +But Mr. Navarro's lawyer disputed that assertion. ""He was absolutely trying to change his life,"" Mr. Glass said. ""He was near destitute when he died."" +He said Mr. Navarro never expressed fear that his former associates would seek revenge. Instead, ""he was worried about whether the Government could be trusted,"" he said.

For the second annual festival, to begin in Panama City on Jan. 20, Mr. Pérez planned a tribute to Victor Boa, a pianist Mr. Pérez has called 'the Latin Art Tatum' and an innovator who blended jazz with native Panamanian rhythms to create a style known as tambo jazz. But last Monday, a few weeks after Mr. Pérez announced the festival, Mr. Boa died at 79, apparently of a heart attack. 'He was one of those unsung heroes,' Mr. Pérez said yesterday by phone before boarding a plane to Panama. 'He never got exposure outside Panama, but he was part of a really important movement in our history.' Mr. Pérez said the three-day festival would include a musical tribute to Mr. Boa and might include a video program of Mr. Boa's life and music. +Pop CD's in Release +In the final weeks of the all-important holiday shopping season, the music industry is limiting the number of new releases that will hit the stores. There are few new releases this week, but among them are two hip-hop albums that could be big sellers: 'Concrete Rose' (Def Jam) by Ashanti and 'Weapons of Mass Destruction' (Columbia) by the Los Angeles rapper Xzibit, right, an angry political statement from a performer who has come to be known mainly for 'Pimp My Ride,' his show on MTV about jazzing up humdrum vans and S.U.V.'s. Among the other albums released tomorrow are the soundtrack to the new Martin Scorsese film 'The Aviator' (Sony) about Howard Hughes, with songs by Artie Shaw, Vince Giordano, Rufus Wainwright, Loudon Wainwright III and David Johansen (the film opens in New York and Los Angeles on Friday); and the soundtrack to Wes Anderson's new film 'The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou' (Hollywood), with songs by Devo and David Bowie, among others. +Footnotes +A new chamber opera by Michael Nyman will get its American premiere this week, but don't look for it in New York or Chicago or Los Angeles. Instead, head to Montclair, N.J., where 'Man and Boy: Dada' opens on Wednesday at the Alexander Kasser Theater at Montclair State University. The opera, a fictional episode in the life of the Dada collage artist Kurt Schwitters, will play in Montclair through Sunday and is not scheduled to have any other performances in the United States.

The grains were identified as coming from manioc, yams and arrowroot and were found on milling stones in sediments that date from 5,000 to 7,000 years ago. +By comparing the size and other characteristics of the grains to those from modern domesticated and wild versions of the same root plants, the researchers were able to determine that the ancient grains came from domesticated plants. The researchers, who described their work in the journal Nature, also found maize starch at the archaeological site, meaning that these ancient peoples were cultivating seed plants along with root plants. +Whether tropical forest areas like this site were early centers for domestication and cultivation has been a subject of debate. Given that forests are home to wild versions of these plants, it would seem to make sense that domestication began in or near forests. But evidence has been hard to come by, because remains of roots and tubers easily decompose in the humid tropical environment. The relatively few grains obtained by the researchers in Panama were found by scraping them from nooks and crannies on the stones, where they had been able to beat the heat and humidity. +Flying Robot, Part II +The team of engineers responsible for the first trans-Atlantic flight by a robotic aircraft plans to try a similar trip across the Pacific. +The engineers, at the University of Washington and a private company, the Insitu Group, are developing a new aircraft for the flight, planned for next summer or fall. The 5,000-mile journey, from west to east to take advantage of prevailing winds, should take about two days. +In 1998, a small pilotless aircraft developed by the researchers flew 2,000 miles from Newfoundland to the Outer Hebrides in Scotland in a little under 27 hours, using a gallon and a half of fuel. The plane took off from a special cradle attached to the roof of a speeding car. +The new plane can take off from a car or be launched using a small pneumatic catapult. The plane is about the same size and weight as the model that flew the Atlantic, with a fuselage that is about 4.5 feet long, a 10-foot wingspan and a weight of about 30 pounds. Both models use rear propellers, but the new one lacks the old one's tail, which was shaped like an inverted V.

In the real Fargo today, a different salesman came tromping through the snow. He was awash in surplus money and optimistic that his plan to slash taxes would meet a far better fate. +President Bush took his tax-cut road show to North Dakota this afternoon, part of a swing through the heartland intended to capitalize on tonight's House vote, which moved the core of Mr. Bush's tax cut proposal to the Senate but also highlighted a deep partisan divide. +As he hopscotches across the country in the coming days -- after Fargo, he plans stops in Sioux Falls, S.D.; Lafayette, La.; and Panama City, Fla. -- Mr. Bush is trying to squeeze Democratic senators to break with their party and support his tax cuts. +'I wasn't sure how many people would show up to hear a budget speech,' he told several thousand people today at a rally at Bison Arena at North Dakota State University. 'If you like what you hear today, maybe e-mail some of the good folks from the United States Senate from your state.' +There was plenty of applause. But one focus of Mr. Bush's offensive, Senator Tim Johnson, Democrat of South Dakota, said in an interview that, e-mail messages or not, he still had reservations about the president's approach. +'The voters of South Dakota didn't elect me to rubber-stamp anybody's proposal,' said Mr. Johnson, who is up for re-election next year. 'I think there ought to be a significant middle-class tax cut, and I want to work with the president to make that happen. It will involve some give-and-take on both sides. Up to now, President Bush hasn't indicated much interest in give-and-take.' +Senator Tom Daschle, the minority leader, is trying to drum up some give-and-take when Mr. Bush, who arrived in South Dakota late tonight, begins his pitch there on Friday. Mr. Daschle, a South Dakota Democrat, used campaign funds for television advertisements in the state criticizing Mr. Bush's plan. +'I want to thank President Bush for coming to South Dakota to hear firsthand the concerns of our state,' Mr. Daschle says in one advertisement, according to a transcript distributed by his office. 'I am sure he'll hear, as I've heard, of your desire for us to set aside partisan differences and work together.' +Mr. Daschle continues in the advertisement: 'President Bush and I both support a tax cut. We differ on the details, yet I'm confident that we can agree on a plan that benefits all Americans, not just the wealthy.' +Mr. Bush told reporters here that the House vote, although close and largely along party lines, had already proved his critics wrong. +'I want you all to remember, when we were campaigning last summer, everybody was saying, 'Now's the time to abandon your tax-relief plan, isn't it?' Remember that?' Mr. Bush said. 'Not only did we not abandon it, but we just got a major hurdle crossed.' +Mr. Bush had been tipped off about the vote but received official word in a telephone call here. His chief of staff, Andrew H. Card Jr., handed him a phone in a holding room at the university, as Speaker J. Dennis Hastert and other Republican leaders gathered on the other end in the Capitol. But the phone cord fell out of the president's handset, momentarily disrupting the event. +Once it was reattached, Mr. Bush listened to the vote count, 230 to 198, and responded, 'It's a win.'" +False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"NORIEGA DEFENSE REQUESTS RECESS +Lawyers for Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega today asked a Federal judge in the trial of the former Panamanian dictator to order an immediate recess, saying they needed time to analyze documents about a secret intelligence operation by the United States Drug Enforcement Agency that was disclosed to them only last week. +General Noriega cooperated with the drug enforcement investigation, Federal prosecutors acknowledged today at a hearing before Judge William M. Hoeveler of Federal District Court here. The covert American operation, called Operation Negocios, was carried out for several years in the mid-1980's and relied in part on information supplied by the Panama Defense Forces, which General Noriega then commanded. +Without a recess, the defense would ""not be able to go forward with our defense at this time,"" Jon May, co-counsel for General Noriega, told Judge Hoeveler. Mr. May said that the defense had been ""severely prejudiced"" by the Government's belated discovery of files on the operation and that relevant material on the extent of General Noriega's cooperation with the D.E.A. had been sought since June. Prosecutors 'Surprised' +But Michael P. Sullivan, the lead prosecutor in the trial, said he did not learn of the secret operation until Dec. 6, during interviews with drug enforcement agents who had received subpoenas to appear as witnesses for the defense. After prosecutors examined four volumes of material on the investigation and culled relevant documents, he said, two separate packages of information were provided to General Noriega's lawyers this past weekend. +""We were surprised,"" Mr. Sullivan said of his reaction when he and other prosecutors learned of the covert operation. He blamed D.E.A. headquarters in Washington for the failure to inform lawyers for both sides, saying that the D.E.A. archives contained ""thousand and thousand of documents that might relate to P.D.F. cooperation"" with the United States, but that ""there is no way to go through them."" +D.E.A. officials did not return telephone calls seeking comment on the matter. +Mr. May described the material as having ""extremely significant testimony to offer concerning Panamanian cooperation with the D.E.A. during the period covered by the indictment"" against General Noriega. Once integrated into the defense case, he said, the information would prove that General Noriega had tracked millions of dollars in drug profits earned by the Medellin cocaine cartel of Colombia and other drug traffickers. +Mr. Sullivan, however, minimized the importance of the General Noriega's role, saying the secret operation included ""quite a bit more that did not include Panama Defense Forces cooperation."" He also said that comments made by Frank A. Rubino, chief counsel for General Noriega, earlier in the trial suggested that the material now surfacing came as no surprise to the defense. Critical Juncture in Trial +""There is good reason to believe the defense has long known of this particular intelligence gathering operation,"" he said. Mr. Sullivan pointed to two bench conferences at which Mr. Rubino spoke of incidents related to a secret operation that was not then known to prosecutors. +Today's hearing comes at a critical juncture in the trial of the deposed Panamanian leader, who has been charged with 10 counts of cocaine trafficking, racketeering and money laundering. Federal prosecutors said they would rest their case on Tuesday, which would normally mean that Mr. Rubino would immediately present an opening statement and call the first witnesses for the defense. +But the trial is scheduled to recess on Thursday for the rest of the year, with proceedings beginning again on Jan. 6. +Judge Hoeveler said he would reserve judgment on the defense motion until Tuesday, saying he needed time to read the file on the secret operation." +False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Washington Talk; Instincts to Be Cautious With Panama Prevail +LEAD: Brent Scowcroft, the White House national security adviser, spoke Sunday about 'the fog of war' as one element that had sorely complicated the Bush Administration's reaction to the attempted coup last week in Panama. +Brent Scowcroft, the White House national security adviser, spoke Sunday about 'the fog of war' as one element that had sorely complicated the Bush Administration's reaction to the attempted coup last week in Panama. +He meant the disorder that always attends fast-breaking events on the battlefield, but in this case the clouds of confusion stretched all the way to Washington and the decision-making process in the American Government. +Mr. Scowcroft and other officials, resentful of what the security adviser described as the 'micromanagement' of foreign policy by Congress, argue that the Administration's response was severely limited by the precedent set in July 1988, when the Senate Intelligence Committee objected to Reagan Administration proposals for supporting a coup plotted by a group of dissident Panamanian officers. +Congress, Mr. Scowcroft asserted, 'has, by its actions and its demeanor, certainly leaned on us against the kinds of things they're now saying that we should have done.' +Senator David L. Boren of Oklahoma, the intelligence committee's Democratic chairman, and Senator William S. Cohen of Maine, a Republican who is vice chairman, both say that is nonsense. A senior White House official sided with them today, asserting, 'Scowcroft and the rest of them don't really have any business saying that, because that clearly wasn't the major issue around here last week.' +What is undisputed, indeed obvious, is that few senior officials in the executive branch have much appetite any more for small-scale wars involving American troops. That is as true of Gen. Colin L. Powell as it was of his predecessor as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Adm. William J. Crowe Jr. The Vietnam War, a ranking officer said, 'has made us wary of places like Panama and Colombia.' +Likewise, the Central Intelligence Agency, which would once have been the obvious organization to get rid of Gen. Manuel Antonio Noriega, the Panamanian strongman, has been reluctant to become involved, fearful that if anything went wrong, it would be accused of mounting an illegal assassination plan. +Conversations with a wide range of people this weekend suggest that the prevailing mood in Washington, from President Bush on down, has become profoundly anti-interventionist - so much so that however strongly many responsible officials may have felt impelled to make an exception for General Noriega, it was hard for them to overcome the cautious instincts that have taken hold. +In that context, several White House aides said, the absence from the Administration's top-level deliberations of Ted Briggs, the National Security Council's leading expert on General Noriega, may have been a decisive handicap. Mr. Briggs, a former Ambassador to Panama, who has advocated tougher action against General Noriega, has been relieved of his security council duties, reportedly at the behest of Secretary of State James A. Baker 3d. Mr. Briggs might have been able more accurately to evaluate the confused information that spurted into Washington in the crucial hours a week ago. +But even that is questioned by White House officials not involved in the political damage-limitation exercise and thus more likely to apportion some of the blame to Administration policy makers rather than placing it wholly on the shoulders of others. +'The intelligence wasn't good, and it wasn't made good use of,' one aide said. 'But that isn't really the point, is it? There wasn't a clear idea of exactly what we wanted to do in case of a coup, so we didn't ask the right questions, and without the right questions, intelligence doesn't help.' +So what now? In addition to trying to remedy the structural problems that hampered coordination within the Administration, top officials see a number of perils against which they must guard in the coming weeks. +The list includes, but is certainly not limited to, somehow assuring the remaining Panamanian officers with rebellious tendencies that the United States is not a paper tiger; extending similar assurances to the Colombian Government, lest it let up on its war against the drug lords; and at the same time avoiding the temptation to make some flashy, but futile, show of force in Central America - all while repairing tattered relations with Capitol Hill. +They said Mr. Bush's honeymoon couldn't last forever, and it hasn't." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"2nd Autopsy in Youth Boot Camp Death Fails to End Questions +Martin Lee Anderson was buried a second time this week, more than two months after he died following a confrontation with guards at a boot camp for teenage offenders in the Florida Panhandle. But questions about his death, and whether the state should close all its boot camps in the aftermath, are very much alive. +After supervising a second autopsy of Martin's body on Monday, a special prosecutor appointed by Gov. Jeb Bush disputed the findings of the original pathologist in the case: that the youth had died from complications of sickle cell trait, an undiagnosed blood disorder. But the prosecutor, Mark Ober, would not say more until his broader investigation of the case was finished. +The guards at Bay Boot Camp in Panama City kneed, kicked and hit Martin, 14, after he stopped running during an orientation drill on Jan. 5. He had been sent to the camp for violating probation after stealing his grandmother's car. In a videotape, which the state released after news organizations sued for it, the boy appears limp throughout the encounter. +He died early on Jan. 6, and when the original autopsy report came out a month later, his parents, lawmakers and civil rights groups expressed outrage. Even after Mr. Ober said through a spokeswoman that Martin 'did not die of sickle cell trait, nor did he die of a natural cause,' the medical examiner who made those findings, Dr. Charles Siebert of Bay County, stood by them. +'I am appalled at the baseless and mean-spirited accusations from special interest groups with little or no knowledge of the evidence in this case,' Dr. Siebert said in a statement on Thursday, 'who are calling for everything from the revocation of my license to criminal charges.' +Dr. Michael Baden, a pathologist who attended the second autopsy on behalf of Martin's family, told a legislative committee in Tallahassee on Friday that Martin had most likely suffocated during the incident and was brain dead by the time an ambulance carried him away. +'There was a time when there were hands over Anderson's mouth,' Dr. Baden said in an interview, noting that the guards held ammonia capsules under the boy's nose several times during the incident. 'There may have been ammonia capsules blocking his nose, hands blocking his mouth -- that could contribute to asphyxia.' +The boot camp, run by the Bay County Sheriff's Office, will close next month. In a letter to state officials, Sheriff W. Frank McKeithen said he was closing it because the program had been 'virtually paralyzed' after Martin's death. +The seven guards in the incident remain on the job -- though not working with young offenders, who have already been cleared from the camp -- while Mr. Ober decides whether they should face criminal charges. +Meanwhile, Governor Bush and his Department of Juvenile Justice are reviewing policies for the state's five other boot camps, as the Legislature debates whether they should remain open. Many states have closed military-style boot camps for teenagers in recent years, but Mr. Bush said Thursday that they have 'yielded a good result,' and Anthony Schembri, his juvenile justice secretary, affirmed that assessment in an interview Friday. +'I think the remainder are good options that we can use for certain kids,' Mr. Schembri said of the five surviving boot camps, though he said every camp should have education and therapy components. +Martin's parents, Gina Jones and Robert Anderson, said they were appalled to hear that Dr. Siebert had not changed his assessment of Martin's death after the second autopsy, which he attended. In an interview, they said every guard involved in the incident should be arrested immediately, as should a nurse who stood by during the confrontation. +'My baby passed away from the beating,' said Ms. Jones, who said her son was an honor student who liked basketball, chess and video games. 'It's not only the guards to blame; it's the sheriff, the doctor, the governor. It's time for the governor to step in.' +In an interview, Dr. Siebert said Dr. Baden, a former chief medical examiner for New York City, was biased because Martin's parents had sought his involvement. +'I'm charged with coming to a truthful and unbiased manner of death, and I feel that's what I did in this case,' he said.

Manuel Antonio Noriega has declared himself a born-again Christian, a Southern Baptist newspaper reported yesterday. +""I received Jesus Christ as my Saviour the 15th May of 1990 at 11 A.M.,"" the deposed Panamanian leader wrote in one of several letters about his conversion that were quoted by The Florida Baptist Witness, a weekly published by that state's branch of the Southern Baptist Convention. +In an interview yesterday with The Associated Press, General Noriega's lawyer confirmed that the general, who is being held at a Federal prison outside Miami, had been regularly visited there by the two Texas evangelists who brought about his conversion and was receiving weekly religious instruction from a Baptist layman. +One of the evangelists is the Rev. Clift Brannon of Longview, Tex., who began corresponding with General Noriega after seeing him carrying a Bible under his arm as he surrendered to American forces in Panama in January 1990. Mr. Brannon, a 77-year-old former lawyer, recruited the Rev. Rudy Hernandez of San Antonio, who is fluent in Spanish, and together they arranged to visit the tightly guarded General Noriega in prison last May 15, the date on which he says he was born again. Conversion Called Authentic +For evangelical Christians, being born again involves a strongly felt, clearly identifiable moment of accepting Jesus as Saviour and consciously committing oneself to following Him. The two evangelists told the Baptist newspaper that they had witnessed thousands of such conversions and considered General Noriega's authentic. +The evangelists said that in a three-hour session on that day, the general, nominally a Roman Catholic but with a reputation for dabbling in Eastern religious beliefs and the occult, testified to his new faith and prayed for forgiveness. The newspaper account did not identify the transgressions for which the general sought that forgiveness, but it quoted letters that he sent to the two ministers as saying that he had suffered from ""illusions of grandeur and a heart hardened to the Gospel."" +General Noriega's lawyer, Frank Rubino, told the newspaper that he expected that word of the conversion would be met with suspicion that it was nothing more than a ploy to win public sympathy or judicial mercy. ""There are people who are just cynical about everything,"" he said. +But Mr. Rubino said the conversion would have no effect on defense strategy as he continues to prepare for the general's trial, which is scheduled for June." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"RAICH GOES INTO OLYMPICS WITH VICTORY +Benjamin Raich of Austria handled the terrain well yesterday in Adelboden, Switzerland, winning the final World Cup giant slalom before the Olympics. +Raich finished his two runs in a combined 2 minutes 23.25 seconds.

Disguised as fans and journalists, they approach Olympians before pulling Dixie cups from their trench coats and demanding samples on the spot. +Moles are embedded in this winter fest, on the watch for unscrupulous trainers and coaches who may be carrying vials of ACME Hi-Speed Tonic to bring out the inner roadrunner in their athletes. +And on Saturday night, based on information that the International Olympic Committee received on the dope chief Dick Pound's tipster hot line, the Italian police raided the residences of Austrian cross-country and biathlon athletes in search of a link to Walter Mayer, the accused blood-manipulation artist to the stars. +This isn't the Olympics. It's a James Bond knockoff. +'Yes, I feel like a criminal now, but I am not a criminal,' Martin Tauber of Austria said yesterday. 'I'm a cross-country skier. +'For me, it's not a problem if there comes one person or two persons to test me; they can have all they want from me. I'm not a person who is secret. I am not secret. There were more than 10 people who came in.' +The athletes weren't allowed to make telephone calls or an exit as the police plundered their belongings until 1 a.m., nine hours before the start of the 4x10-kilometer cross-country relay. +'Nothing, not one second,' Tauber said, detailing his sleep. 'It was impossible.' +The sleep deprivation was evident as the Austrian team fell so far behind, it was lapped. The Austrians were in need of NoDoz -- quite possibly on the I.O.C.'s list of banned substances -- after enduring the excessive force of an inquiry that began with the World Anti-Doping Agency, led by Pound. +In January, agency sleuths discovered blood-doping equipment connected to Mayer, a Nordic team coach for Austria who was barred from attending the Winter Games through 2010 after he performed blood transfusions to increase the endurance of two athletes at the 2002 Salt Lake Games. +A sloppy housekeeper, Mayer left transfusion bags, needles and tubing for the cleaning ladies to find at his Salt Lake City digs. +A careless traveler, Mayer was spotted by informants at a sleepover last week with Austrian athletes. +The Austrian athletes are not as innocent as their 'Sound of Music' legacy might indicate -- and they may well be in cahoots with Mayer, as their blood samples may soon tell -- but the Olympic custodians of a fair playing field are becoming undercover experts at deceit. +'This isn't playing fair,' said Michael Straubel, a professor at Valparaiso's School of Law, who is in Turin to provide legal aid to athletes on the wrong side of the antidoping agency. 'It's the opening for them to take it further and further without respecting privacy. It's a little dangerous. The I.O.C. and W.A.D.A. make the rules.' +There is a place for the agency, but there is no excuse for an abuse of power. An overreach on its part will serve only to validate the concerns of baseball players -- as well as members of all pro leagues -- over the potential for privacy infringement. +For the past year, politicians have rightly insisted on an independent body to conduct drug testing for professional athletes in every league. Take it out of league hands, they said, and place it in the unbiased charge of the United States Anti-Doping Agency. Transparency will reign, they have argued. +The United States agency is not known for deceptive practices, but the world agency and, by extension, the I.O.C. are not helping the credibility among antidoping authorities by applying a cloak-and-dagger, Jennifer Garner-as-Sydney Bristow in 'Alias' approach to catching drug cheats. +'It's the old slippery slope,' Straubel said. +Imagine if the world agency's drug-testing logic was applied to pro leagues. +If the trainer Greg Anderson, a Balco culprit, is spotted with Barry Bonds, does that give the police the right to raid the Giants' clubhouse? +If a drug tester disguised as a milkman arrives at the home of Jason Giambi, should Giambi trust the man who pulls a badge out of a dairy crate? +Forcing athletes into a game of 'I Spy an Impostor' is beneath the I.O.C and the antidoping agency. Sending the police to descend on Austrian athletes when the object of the search is Mayer is an example of how free the international officials are to wield their power. +'According to Italian law, it is how the police can act,' Heinz Jungwirth, secretary general of the Austrian Olympic Committee, said at a news conference yesterday. 'For us, it's a little sad when it is done late at night just before an event the next day. We have to think about the athletes first. And I think this is a little unfair.' +That was the only cogent statement Jungwirth uttered. Otherwise, his 'I know nothing' responses on the issue of Mayer sounded like an effort to distance the Austrians from the controversy. And his cooperative spirit toward the I.O.C.'s antidoping efforts made him sound like an Olympic official hoping to ease any sanctions that might be forthcoming. +So something may be awry. The world antidoping agency may feel the high of an Austrian gotcha, but it will be at the expense of an idea the Olympics are supposed to represent: fair play. +Sports of The Times E-mail: selenasports@nytimes.com" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Austrian Wins Gold in the Downhill Without Any Distractions +Two years ago, his World Cup season was ended by a spill in a race in this very resort village. A year ago, a teammate died while attempting to qualify for a downhill race in Wengen, Switzerland. This afternoon, Patrick Ortlieb of Austria won the gold medal in the Olympic downhill and complained that the mountain had not been dangerous enough. +""You don't have to overcome any inhibitions within yourself on this track,"" Ortlieb said after the first downhill victory of his career. ""It was just too slow, not spectacular enough."" +Ortlieb finished 5-hundredths of a second faster than Franck Piccard of France, and a 10th of a second ahead of his Austrian teammate, Gunther Mader. +The United States' medal hope, A. J. Kitt, skied what he called a ""mediocre"" 1:51.98, finishing ninth and setting the tone for American performances this first full day of competition at the XVI Winter Olympics. Tough Outings +Duncan Kennedy virtually blew his chance at a medal in the luge by finishing the first day of competition in 10th place, and Robert Pipkins of Staten Island started badly and was 26th. +The United States pairs skating champions -- Calla Urbanski, a waitress in Wilmington, Del., and Rocky Marval, who owns a trucking company in New Egypt, N.J. -- were seventh after the original program, the result of Marval touching the boards coming out of a double axel. Natasha Kuchiki and Todd Sand, ranked third in the world, were sixth. +As for the downhill, in which less than a half-second separated the first five finishers, the assessment that it was too slow came from a credible source. +With the exception of one competitor -- himself -- the 24-year-old Ortlieb witnessed as much of this race as any journalist or fan. Drawing the No. 1 position, he charged down the long and winding road, La Face de Bellevarde, in 1:50.37. +From 1.9 miles below the start, he watched as the world's best downhillers, under sunny skies and with a race-time temperature of 41 degrees, failed to beat his time. +Franz Heinzer of Switzerland, the favorite, could do no better than sixth, in 1:51.39. The leader in two of the three training runs, Markus Wasmeier of Germany, appeared to have claimed the bronze in 1:50.62, until Piccard, from nearby Les Saisies, emerged from a winterlong slump in 1:50.42. +The winner of a gold medal in the super giant and a bronze in the downhill during the 1988 Calgary Olympics, Piccard unlike Ortlieb, admitted that the death of 19-year-old Gernot Rheinstadler in January, 1991, sapped him of his verve until it was time to train for the Games. +""Seeing that affected me,"" said Piccard, who by chance witnessed the accident in which Rheinstadler severed an artery in his leg. +Ortlieb acknowledged the painful loss of a close friend, but nothing more. In the downhiller's mind, how could there be room for anything that might create fear and doubt? +Despite never finishing better than second in a World Cup downhill, Ortlieb said he has always considered himself a traditional downhill racer. He spoke of a passion for hurtling himself down a straightaway, with little tolerance for a course with as many tight turns as the La Face de Bellevarde, designed by Bernhard Russi. +""After this success, I am not going to change my opinion,"" Ortlieb said. ""It is not a downhill track. I hope there will be no more races like this one."" 'I'm Satisfied' +This was a common pre-race complaint from racers like Heinzer and Kitt, the leaders in this season's World Cup downhill standing. +Kitt reiterated his disappointment that today's event ""wasn't real downhill,"" that it catered to skiers who usually specialize in events like the super giant slalom and the giant slalom. Still, he said he was ""more satisfied than disappointed,"" despite being hailed in the United States as the country's potential medal beacon in a dark wasteland of a men's Alpine program. +Kitt, a 23-year-old from Rochester, N.Y., in December became the first American man to win a World Cup race since 1984, by winning in Val d'Isere though that event was run on the old, less windy course on the other side of the mountain. +""My expectations, considering the kind of hill, was to be somewhere in the top 10, so I'm more satisfied than disappointed,"" he said, finding the proper political spin. +Though he is an improving technical skier, Kitt's split times today indicated that he was strong at the start, but already nearly a second behind by the third split, never able to make a serious run. A Bit Ragged +""There wasn't one major mistake,"" he said. ""I was just kind of ragged."" +On his way to meet his parents, Nancy and Ross, Kitt was asked if he might yet wonder what the outcome would have been had the race been held on the other course. He laughed and said, ""What's the point?"" +His point being: La Face de Bellevarde was the chosen course, the first man down posted the golden time, and now it was time to look ahead. +""Only two years to the next Olympics,"" he said. MEDALLIONS +KYLE RASMUSSEN of Angels Camp, Calif., turned in the most surprising run by an American, finishing 16th in 1:52.71. Also finishing were TOMMY MOE (20th) and REGGIE CRIST (28th). . . .

Hermann Maier, on the other hand, thrived on aggression to become the greatest Alpine ski racer of the 1990's but emerged mellow and stoic after his brush with mortality. +But after winning a giant slalom race Sunday, Maier, a 32-year-old Austrian who was seriously injured in a motorcycle accident in 2001, was screaming with joy, throwing his equipment all over the glacier. +His 51st World Cup victory had moved him into second place on the career list behind Ingemar Stenmark, who won 86. +'He's getting a little bit old for such a reaction,' Bode Miller said after watching Maier's celebrations. 'He's going to give himself a heart attack.' +Miller, 28, was the last skier down the mountain, but he was 0.07 seconds slower than Maier, finishing second. +After the race, Maier praised the skier he had passed on the career list, Alberto Tomba of Italy. 'He was a great skier,' Maier said. 'He was a perfect skier.' +But not as perfect as Maier, who is known as the Hermannator and has won more or less everything in the sport. In February, he will try to win an Olympic downhill gold medal, virtually the only victory that has eluded him in his career. +Maier was the favorite to win that event at the 1998 Games in Nagano, Japan, but instead he flew upside-down off a jump and onto the cover of Sports Illustrated. In 2002, he was recovering from the motorcycle accident and depressed by the possibility that he may never ski again. +Many Austrians, who followed his surgery and rehabilitation closely, suspect that their hero will retire if he finally wins a downhill gold at the Games in February in Turin, Italy. +But Maier says he will compete until 2007. +In some ways, he acts as if he is already retired. This summer, a philanthropic mood led him to adopt Benno, a 26-year-old rhinoceros at the Salzburg zoo. Maier said he fell for the 8,000-pound rhino because they shared a similar temperament of tightly reined aggression. +'If it's possible to do some charity, I'm always there,' Maier said. 'A lot of people, they are thinking that only in other countries there are problems, but we have people in need in Austria, too.' +Miller was competing in his 115th consecutive World Cup race. He has not missed a race since 2002, and he said he would not skip one this year, either. Miller, who last year skied most of the world championship downhill course on one ski, has the potential to win every Alpine event at the Winter Games. +His coaches want him to skip some World Cup races before Turin, to rest and retreat from the news media that he finds so tormenting. It used to be coaches that Miller complained about; they disapproved of his recklessness and backward-leaning technique. +'Now people are arguing with him about who he is and what he represents,' said Bill Rogers, a documentary filmmaker who has followed Miller from obscurity seven years ago; his film 'Flying Downhill' will have its premiere next month. 'So he's replaced his coaches with the media, making himself the underdog.' +Miller thrives on subversion. Last week, he created a furor by arguing that anti-doping rules should be liberalized. He said that in certain situations, the blood-boosting drug EPO and steroids might be beneficial to an athlete's health. +He did not back away from that Sunday. 'Right now, the process that's there is really ineffective at accomplishing the goals,' he said. +Miller said he was particularly angry that his friend Hans Knauss, an Austrian downhiller, was suspended for 18 months last year after testing positive for traces of the steroid nandrolone. +Knauss, who retired in July, recently hired Howard Jacobs, a Los Angeles lawyer, to sue the Connecticut-based company Ultimate Nutrition, which he says provided him with tainted nutritional supplements. +Jacobs, who also represents the sprinter Tim Montgomery and the cyclist Tyler Hamilton, won a jury award of $578,635 from Ultimate Nutrition this year in the case of the swimmer Kicker Vencill. +Maier has joined other athletes (including Knauss) and international skiing officials in denouncing Miller's arguments as immature and embarrassing to a sport with a clean image. +'He's coming to terms with being the main figure in the big times,' said Sarah Lewis, the secretary general of the International Ski Federation. 'And of course, it takes time to learn coming from a quiet town to being one of the biggest ski stars in the world.' +Miller also has an autobiography, 'Bode: Go Fast, Be Good, Have Fun,' to sell. The book, which draws a direct line between the attitudes of his hippie parents and his success as a ski racer, is scheduled for release this week. In it, Miller writes that any skier who doped would be admitting a shortage of confidence and would be no threat to win. +'He doesn't believe his personal aversion to performance-enhancing drugs should preclude others from using them,' said Jack McEnany, who co-wrote the book with Miller. 'He says, 'If a guy needs to get juiced to race, then I've already beat him.' That strikes me as a profoundly antidrug message.' +SKIING" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Aamodt Makes a Precision Turn, Then Makes History +The last and most pivotal portion of today's men's Olympic super-G course was a snowy cliff called the Buffalo Jump. It is so named, the locals say, because the earliest hunters in this part of Utah would try to stampede buffalo over the precipice, knowing the terrain below the crag was so steep the buffalo would tumble several hundred yards, leaving the hunters a helpless bounty at the bottom. +The buffalo did not have to also make a sharp left turn as soon as they soared over the jump. A cross section of the world's best skiers did have to make that turn to stay on course today, and though they all survived the Buffalo Jump, several -- including four of the top medal candidates -- then had to abandon the course and miss a gate rather than risk tumbling down the abrupt pitch that closed the race. +The third skier out of the starting gate, Kjetil Andre Aamodt of Norway, negotiated the turn-filled final section and did so with more precision than any other, earning his second gold medal in four days. Aamodt's time of 1 minute 21.58 seconds was a tenth of a second better than Stephan Eberharter of Austria, whose silver medal-winning time was 15-hundredths of a second better than his countryman Andreas Schifferer, who earned the bronze medal. +Aamodt's performance will ensure his place as one of the greatest skiers in Olympic history, as Aamodt has now won seven medals -- a record for an Alpine skier -- and three golds. On Wednesday, he routed the field in the men's Alpine combined. Today's super-G victory comes 10 years after he won the event at the 1992 Albertville Games. +'This is such a bonus; I did not even dream of being on the podium in the super-G,' Aamodt said. 'Heading into the combined, I didn't even know if I would ever win another Olympic medal.' +After winning five medals in the 1992 and the 1994 Olympics, Aamodt was shut out in 1998 in Nagano, Japan. He has won more Olympic and world championship medals (17) than any other skier in history. +Meanwhile, for Eberharter, it was another day as the runner-up. Eberharter, who came into the Olympics as a favorite in the downhill and the super-G, instead has a third from the downhill along with a silver today. +Eberharter complained that his coaches did not radio to him in the start house to warn him about the difficult turn after the Buffalo Jump. 'I lost by a tenth of a second,' Eberharter said. 'That could have been the difference.' +Asked if he had been told of the troublesome fall-away gate that ruined so many skiers' runs, Aamodt answered: 'No. In the super-G, you inspect the course once and then you have a go at it. You make quick, early good decisions, or you don't.' +The man who defeated Eberharter in the 2001 worlds, the American Daron Rahlves, had another disappointing day today, skiing conservatively and with chattering skis through the exceedingly challenging midsection to finish eighth. Rahlves was the top American finisher, although Thomas Vonn was a surprising ninth. +It was also another day for the Norwegians and Austrians to assert their Alpine dominance. The Austrians had four skiers in the top 10, including the downhill winner Fritz Stoebl, who was fourth, and Christoph Gruber, who was seventh. That raises the Austrians' total number of top-10 finishes in the Alpine events to 14. Bjarne Solbakken of Norway was fifth, which means the Norwegians have now put together six top-10 finishes in Alpine this week. +Rahlves called the course, set on three-fourths of the Grizzly downhill course at the Snowbasin Ski Area, the most difficult super-G layout he has ever seen. +'After the Buffalo Jump, you have this blind turn,' said Rahlves, who conceded he skied cautiously at times during his run. 'Even if you know it's coming, you have to set up just right or you have no chance of making that next gate. When you see the caliber of skiers that have blown right by it and been done, it tells you something.' +Lasse Kjus of Norway, the silver medalist in the downhill, could not make the turn and neither did nearly a dozen others, including Didier Cuche of Switzerland, who had a quicker time through the majority of the course than Aamodt but got a little late and low only five gates from the finish line and missed a gate that disqualified him. +Rahlves's Olympics are now over as he will not compete in the slalom or giant slalom that remain, events that will feature the American Bode Miller. Rahlves, after winning the world championship super-G a year ago, has had a series of uneven performances during this season's World Cup tour. The Americans were hoping he would peak at the Olympics. +'To leave here without a medal is obviously disappointing,' Rahlves said. 'I really thought I would do better.

Neither did other Catholic officials apologize for the audience. At the same time the discussions dissipated fears that the Waldheim controversy would disrupt a meeting scheduled Sept. 11 between Jewish officials and the Pope in Miami. 'Frosting on the Cake' +'It has to be looked at as a package,' said Rabbi Marc Tanenbaum, director of international relations for the American Jewish Committee. 'I've been around Popes for a long time and I had no spectacular expectations. By the time we came to the Pope we had done our real work and as far as I was concerned the meeting with the Pope was frosting on the cake.' +Central to the talks was a desire by both sides to preserve a formal relationship that goes back to 1969. This relationship between Vatican officials and a coalition of Jewish organizations has involved productive discussions on everything from theology to the diplomatic status of Israel and has been credited with helping improve relations between ordinary Jews and Catholics. It stands in sharp contrast to the long history of distrust and animosity that preceded it. +Given their anger over the Waldheim audience, the Jewish officials who came here needed an honorable way to restore that relationship. 'Waldheim held the expectation of a serious breach in the dialogue,' said Henry Siegman, executive director of the American Jewish Congress, who has participated in Vatican talks since 1969. 'If you're practicing dialogue, you observe the rules of the game. If you do something as traumatic as Waldheim, then you have an obligation to talk to your partner before you do it.' +The Catholics officials also wanted to restore the relationship in a way that would not compel them to yield an essential principle and apologize for the audience. +In World War II, Mr. Waldheim served in a German Army unit that has been implicated in the deportations of Jews from Greece. But Catholic officials argue that his guilt has not been proved and they contend that refusing an audience to him would amount to a judgment on that guilt. Achievement and Disappointment +Both sides also had some practical goals in mind. The Catholics were worried that anger over the audience cast a pall over the Pope's 10-day trip to the United States. The Jewish officials also saw the Catholic concern over the Waldheim incident as an opportunity to achieve some upgrading in their dialogue with the Catholics. They have now succeeded in bringing in Agostino Cardinal Casaroli, who as Secretary of State functions essentially as the Pope's prime minister. +The meeting with the Pope today was perhaps more important for the way it took place than for what was said. There was some free back and forth and no bars on the topics that were discussed. +Mr. Siegman, as he emerged today from the hour-long meeting at the Pope's summer palace here, said, 'It was inconceivable to earlier generations of Jews to have even thought about such an encounter. +The Pope did not respond directly to them about Mr. Waldheim, but in several remarks about Polish villages of his youth, where there were no longer Jews, he let them understand his sorrow over the Holocaust. 'There is evil in the world and we hope and pray that the Lord will help us find good out of this,' was the way one participant paraphrased the Pope's broad response to a series of remarks about Mr. Waldheim and the Holocaust. +Dr. Eugene Fisher, executive secetary for Catholic-Jewish relations of the National Conference of Catholics Bishops, described the Pope's thinking this way: 'When one partner hurts, however much one would argue with the way they expressed that hurt, first one reacts to the deeper sense of hurt.' A Different Encounter +The Jewish officials had said before they came here that it would have been unrealistic to expect an apology for the Waldheim audience. There was, however, some disappointment that the Pope did not tell them that he understood their hurt, or offer a direct explanation for the audience. +The Jewish officials came away with some significant, if not major, victories that implicitly evolved out of the Waldheim episode. The Vatican agreed to a Jewish proposal that the Vatican's Commission on Religious Relations with Judaism prepare a document about the Holocaust and anti-Semitism. The Pope personally gave his endorsement of the project. +The Vatican also agreed to set up a 'mechanism' that would monitor issues within the Jewish community and consult with Jewish officials about them. While the mechanism is still vague, Jewish officials feel that it might have allowed them to alert the Vatican beforehand about potential fallout from an audience with Mr. Waldheim. +THE HEALING OF A BREACH" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Condition of Injured French Skier Worsens +The condition of Régine Cavagnoud, the French champion skier who was gravely injured in a training accident, deteriorated today, and physicians were increasingly pessimistic about her chances of recovery. +'She is still in a very bad state,' said Michael Blauth, the chief of Innsbruck University hospital's trauma department. 'Her brain injuries are that severe and her life is still in great danger.' +Cavagnoud, the reigning world champion in the super-G, collided with a German coach, Markus Anwander, during downhill training on an Austrian glacier on Monday. Anwander was crossing the run after repairing it and apparently had not received word by radio that Cavagnoud had started. He was walking in a dip, which kept Cavagnoud from seeing him until it was too late. +Cavagnoud, a 31-year-old from the Alpine resort of La Clusaz, and Anwander were then transported by helicopter to Innsbruck's primary hospital, where Cavagnaud underwent approximately five hours of surgery on Monday night in an attempt to treat the injuries to her head, brain, liver and rib cage.

The museum received the painting when that collector, Marianne Khuner, died in 1984. Since then, the work, which was painted around 1518, has hung at the entrance to the museum's Northern European collection. +But last March, the museum received a letter detailing evidence of the painting's jaded history from an agency based in New York concerned with recovering missing assets taken by the Nazis during World War II. The museum researched the trail of the Cranach piece, and verified the Nazi connection. +In 1938, the painting was part of a collection of about 85 works owned by an Austrian industrialist named Philipp von Gomperz. When Austria was taken over by Hitler that year, Mr. Gomperz fled Vienna and left the art collection behind with his niece. In 1940, Nazis confiscated the collection, including the Cranach painting, which was then acquired by a Nazi leader in Austria, Baldur von Schirach. +After the war, Mr. Schirach was tried with other Nazi war criminals at Nuremberg and sentenced to 20 years in prison. In the 1950's, the painting showed up on the New York art market and was eventually purchased by the Beverly Hills collector who, seemingly unaware of its history, donated it to the North Carolina Museum of Art. Museum officials say they think she was an acquaintance of the director at the time. +John Coffey, the museum's curator, said that as soon as he heard about the possibility of a Holocaust connection, the painting took on a new, unsettling aura. 'The fact that one of our paintings might not be ours,' he said, 'and that the Nazis might have been a part of its history, added a sort of eerie veneer to the painting.' +The Commission for Art Recovery of the World Jewish Congress wrote the letter to the museum last March, and the Holocaust Claims Processing Office of the state of New York's banking department represented Mr. Gomperz's two grandnieces, Marianne and Cornelia Hainisch, through the process. Mr. Gomperz died in Switzerland in 1948 at age 87. But his heirs have worked since the end of the war to reclaim pieces of his collection. The Cranach painting is the 13th work they have recovered. The market value of the painting has been estimated at $500,000 to more than $1 million. +This morning, Monica Dugot of the Holocaust Claims Processing Office in New York, spoke to the Hainisch sisters, who are in their 80's and living in Austria, and told them of the North Carolina museum's decision. 'They are ecstatic,' Ms. Dugot said. 'The acknowledgment that this painting belonged to their family meant a huge injustice could be corrected during their lifetime.' +Ms. Dugot said that similar claims had been made about artwork in other American museums, but that this was the first time she knew of that a resolution had been reached without legal action. 'I hope this sets an example for other U.S. and European museums,' she said. +Officials at the North Carolina museum said they were asking the Hainisch sisters to consider letting the museum keep the painting and develop an exhibit around it. +'People could learn a lot from this painting,' Mr. Coffey said.

Not in the middle, but Green, a promising young goalkeeper for Norwich City, certainly had an orchestra seat. +'I was in Austria and Poland with the team and didn't realize that there was such a fury over what happened to David James,' Green said during a telephone interview from London on Saturday, a day before recording his first shutout in the Premier League as Norwich City earned a 0-0 draw against host Tottenham. 'People make mistakes in life and in football all the time.' +Part of the problem is that in England, 'football' is life, and making a mistake -- the way James did when he allowed a shot to squirt between his arms in a 2-2 tie in Vienna on Sept. 4 -- cannot be undone and cannot be forgotten. +Green, a hulking 6-foot-3, 24-year-old goalkeeper, was named to the national team last spring by Coach Sven-Goran Eriksson and then helped Norwich gain promotion to the Premier League. 'It was a bit of a surprise because I think I was the first keeper from outside the top league to be chosen for the national team,' Green said. +He has yet to make an international appearance for England, but that day could be creeping closer. After the debacle in Austria, Eriksson replaced James with Paul Robinson for England's 2-1 victory in Poland. After the game, the English players refused to speak to the news media. Eriksson was at the Premier League game on Sunday when Robinson, playing for Tottenham, and Green each sparkled on their small patches of turf. +Perhaps one of the strangest things about English soccer in recent years is the absence of a premier goalkeeper comparable to players like Gordon Banks and Peter Shilton. There are only five English keepers starting in the Premier League. And James's gaffe is not without precedent -- David Seaman misplayed a long shot (or was it a cross?) by Ronaldinho when Brazil eliminated England in the quarterfinals of the 2002 World Cup. +'There has been a huge influx of European players, including three American keepers, coming over in the last 10 years,' said Green, referring to Tim Howard, Brad Friedel and Kasey Keller. 'The influx has been good for the game, but not for England. With goalkeepers, when a team looks for a keeper it looks for someone with experience. We have youngsters in England, but teams don't want to risk it because it's all about results, and a mistake could cost a manager his job. The chances for young English keepers have been very limited in recent years.' +It would not be a huge surprise if Green makes his debut for England next month against Wales (Oct. 9 in Manchester) or Azerbaijan (Oct. 13 in Baku). +'I just hope to be in the squad again and be fit for selection,' Green said, ever the diplomat. +MAJOR LEAGUE SOCCER Steady Force for MetroStars +MetroStars defender Chris Leitch is perhaps overlooked and underappreciated, but he is almost certainly overworked and underpaid. +Other than missing one game this season because of an injury, Leitch, who picked up his first point of the season when he assisted on Eddie Gaven's goal on Saturday night, has been the club's ironman. He has played all 90 minutes in 24 games and leads the team with 2,160 minutes played. +'I'm a defender; the less you hear about me, the better,' Leitch said after the victory over New England. 'If they call my name, there's usually something wrong.' +Leitch is one of only four MetroStars (Amado Guevara, Gaven and Jeff Parke are the others) who have started 20 or more games this season. Leitch is one of the best bargains in Major League Soccer because he earns the league minimum, $26,000. +'What keeps me going is that I want to be as consistent as I can be and bring the same level to every game,' Leitch said. 'My role won't be measured in goals and assists.' +Leitch, who is right-footed, has played on the left side all season because Coach Bob Bradley has not been able to obtain an acceptable left-footed player. The Costa Rican Pablo Brenes, normally a left-side midfielder, was believed to be the answer, but he is more effective at his normal position. 'If the team got a left-side defender, would I be playing?' Leitch said. 'I don't know.' +SAN JOSE -- A group of investors in California is interested in buying the Earthquakes from the Anschutz Entertainment Group, providing it can find support for building a new soccer stadium in either San Francisco or San Jose.

Manchester United was the favorite club in England, the Netherlands, South Africa, Japan and the United States. +WOMEN'S CELEBRATION TOUR -- The United States women's national team will begin a 10-match tour on Sept. 25 with a match against Iceland in Rochester and again on Sept. 29 in Pittsburgh. The tour includes games against New Zealand (Oct. 3 in Portland, Ore., and Oct. 10 in Cincinnati), Mexico (Oct. 16 in Kansas City, Mo.), Ireland (Oct. 20 in Chicago and Oct. 23 in Houston), Denmark (Nov. 3 in East Rutherford, N.J., and Nov. 8 at a site to be determined). One game will be added to the schedule. +CHAMPIONS LEAGUE -- Still another wrinkle to Bayern Munich's match against Maccabi Tel Aviv tomorrow night, which will be played even though it is on the eve of Rosh Hashana, the Jewish New Year. Maccabi and the Israeli federation tried to reschedule the match, but were rebuffed by UEFA, the game's European governing body. Bayern's Iranian striker, Vahid Hashemian, was expected to make the trip even though Iran forbids its citizens from traveling to Israel. Late yesterday, the club said he would stay in Germany because of a back injury. The first Champions League match in Israel is expected to draw 40,000 spectators. +SOCCER REPORT" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"The Races Will Go On (With Imported Snow) +The International Ski Federation yesterday gave a green light to the coming World Cup ski races in Kitzbühel, Austria, where organizers used a fleet of helicopters this week to import more than 100,000 cubic feet of snow from higher elevations. +Among the three races confirmed for Jan. 26-28 is the Hahnenkamm downhill, the most famous ski race in the world. But the dangerous course will be heavily modified, redirecting the racers through the woods and onto a solitary strip of imported snow. +Pilots made hundreds of trips between low-lying Kitzbühel and a high mountain pass nearby, collecting snow and carrying it back to the downhill course in large nets suspended under the helicopters by cables. +The weeklong helicopter effort cost organizers an estimated $389,000. +'It is a lot of money for something that would normally come from heaven, not from helicopters,' the F.I.S. president, Gian Franco Kasper, said in a telephone interview. +Kasper said high-profile competitions could afford to take such extreme measures, but that grass-roots ski racing was suffering from the extraordinarily warm temperatures in Europe this winter. +'This is extremely catastrophic for tourism, and the worst, of course, for the junior athletes,' said Kasper, who said it seemed like springtime in his native Switzerland. +Dozens of major competitions have been disrupted this winter in the Alps. The freestyle skiing world championships, originally scheduled for next week in Italy, have been postponed until March. +The high Swiss village of Wengen managed to hold the Lauberhorn downhill last week, even though birds were chirping in town on the morning of the race. The thinness of the snow cover exaggerated the terrain, causing many racers to crash or collapse from exhaustion. +The Alpine skiing world championships, scheduled for Feb. 3-18 in Are, Sweden, are not threatened, officials said, because temperatures there have dropped low enough for snowmaking systems to be used on the host mountain. +There has been no such luck for Kitzbühel, an upscale resort town southeast of Innsbruck, at a relatively low altitude of 2,500 feet above sea level. +Safety officials from the F.I.S., who customarily inspect World Cup courses 10 days before the first training run, extended Kitzbühel's deadline earlier this week to accommodate the unprecedented helicopter effort. +The helicopters took 105,000 cubic feet of snow from the nearby Glockner Pass, near some of the highest peaks in the Alps, and deposited it on the muddy slopes of Kitzbühel, where troops from the Austrian army worked alongside volunteers to patch together a race surface. +The course will not include the treacherous final slope, where safety netting now stands in fields of grass and mud. Instead, racers will be funneled through the woods and onto the slalom course, allowing organizers to get double the use out of what snow they have available. +The historic Hahnenkamm races, now in their 67th year, are crucial to the region's economy and sense of pride. About 80,000 people visit the town of 9,000 people, and the downhill race receives daylong television coverage from Austria's national broadcaster. +Only the most experienced downhillers win at Kitzbühel, and many consider a victory there more prestigious than an Olympic gold medal. But whenever the course is shortened -- as it often is for blizzards or fog -- the race winner has a figurative asterisk by his name. +Many top skiers decline to speak publicly about climate change, for fear that their comments will damage the tourist industry that is often so important to the ski towns they come from, not to mention their equipment sponsors. +Kasper echoed many of the prominent skiers in the sport when he expressed skepticism about long-term global warming. He prefers to call this season's problems a cyclical phenomenon. +Benjamin Raich, last year's overall World Cup champion, said last week that he was not worried about his sport, even though he comes from Pitztal, Austria, where in recent summers townspeople have wrapped parts of a glacier in protective foil to slow its rapid demise. +One World Cup skier who has been particularly vocal about his fear for his sport is Steven Nyman, a young American who won his first World Cup race in December. +'I'm going to be out of a job in a few years if this persists,' he wrote in a recent posting on his blog. +SKIING" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Austrian Women Leading In Luge +Austrians, who have been the dominant force in the early going of the Winter Olympics, positioned themselves to continue their run by placing team members one, two and three today on the first day of women's luge competition. They had to survive protests by both the United States and Italy, but on the track here as at other venues, the Austrians hung on. +By the end of today, Austria had 7 medals and was poised to increase that to as many as 11 by the end of Wednesday if the three women here maintain position in the final two runs and their countryman, Klaus Ofner, maintains his lead in the Nordic combined. +""It's a very optimistic moment,"" Jungwirth Heinz, secretary general of Austria's Olympic committee, said.

Until the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary, lugers were allowed to tie down their booties -- that's what they call them -- with surgical tubing.

It saved time in a sport in which races are sometimes settled by thousandths of a second. +Now, the Federation Internationale de Luge, the sport's world governing body, forbids such artificial aid. Section 5.3.4 of the federation's rule book reads: +""Racing shoes and racing suits are by no means allowed to stick together. Mechanical and elastic pointing of the foot is forbidden. . . . . Any violations are grounds for disqualification."" +The Olympic jury of appeals for luge checked the booties of the three Austrians and conferred with three technical delegates from the federation. Then, after one meeting of 25 minutes and another of 20, the jury ruled that the Austrians had violated no rule. As Bob Hughes, the American member of the three-person jury, explained it: +""The feet and shoes are strictly controlled because they are the first things that touch the air. The federation didn't want this to become a sport for scientific wizardry. +""Two teams felt that the Austrians' racing suits hooked over the heel and thus pointed the foot. The question was, 'Was it helping the racers?' The jury said no."" +With or without pointed toes, the Austrians did better than expected. ""Everyone was surprised by them,"" Schaedler said. +As for the Americans, Terwillegar and her teammates are Olympic veterans. In 1988, Warner finished sixth, Myler ninth and Terwillegar 11th. Here, Myler was a medal favorite off her second place in the seasonlong World Cup series. +But the virus struck Myler, among other lugers, Monday night and kept her up until 5 A.M. Team officials said she got no more than a half-hour of sleep. Still, she has a chance for a medal Wednesday, because she is only one-quarter of a second out of third place and she has beaten everyone ahead of her. Terwillegar said she was happy with her performance because she did not have an exceptional season. +""My goal is the top 10,"" she said. +Barring a disastrous run Wednesday, Terwillegar seems sure of meeting that goal. Not so Warner, who had trouble finding the right line in and out of curves. +Explaining her troubles, Warner sounded like what she is: a pilot for United Airlines. ""When you go fast,"" she said, ""you're supposed to put your gear up. My problem is that my gear is down."" +For Warner and the others, the track was in better condition than they had expected. The bobsleds and luges use the same track, and on Monday night two-man bobsleds took their first practice runs. +By 12:30 A.M., workmen were smoothing the ice. By 10 A.M., when the female lugers made their first run, the narrow chute was in better condition. +""It wasn't bad,"" Terwillegar said, ""but it was a little chattery."" +""It wasn't good,"" one observer said. ""With a track in this condition, the race becomes a lottery.""

'I told him I believe for sure he will have a great comeback.' +In the late 1990s, Maier's aggressive skiing and seemingly indestructible body earned him the nickname the Herminator, a play on the title of Schwarzenegger's most famous action-movie character, the Terminator. +Maier was already one of the greatest ski racers when he nearly lost a leg in a 2001 motorcycle accident. He then returned to the top of the sport two years later, winning skiing's most coveted trophies with a mellower, more reflective attitude. +Now losing speed at 34, Maier has not said when he plans to retire. He won two medals last year at the Olympic Games in Turin, Italy, but this season has finished on the podium only once in 15 races on the World Cup circuit. +He typically peaks for the annual Hahnenkamm race at Kitzbühel, Austria, the most dangerous and celebrated downhill on the tour. That Jan. 27 event could be canceled as early as tomorrow if race officials decide there is not enough snow. +With dirt showing through much of the course's lower section, organizers are importing snow from higher elevations with trucks and helicopters. +Schwarzenegger, who broke his right femur Dec. 23 in Sun Valley, Idaho, is an avid skier.

But he played anyway on Sunday and made quick work of his match-turned-exhibition against Jurgen Melzer, 6-4, 6-2, before a crowd of 5,936 at Mohegan Sun Arena. Robby Ginepri later beat Stefan Koubek, 7-5, 6-2, to complete a 5-0 shutout. +The scores did not matter. The circumstances did not matter. But to Roddick, the commitment did. +'I feel a pretty good obligation to the fans that make Davis Cup possible,' he said. 'To be honest, it's a pretty easy decision. Robby and I are on the same plane tonight to San Jose, so I wasn't leaving until he was leaving anyway.' +Patrick McEnroe, the United States captain, and his crew hoped that the sweep, albeit over a weak Austrian team with no singles player ranked higher than 76th, would underscore a renewed commitment to Davis Cup. +A previous generation that included Pete Sampras and Andre Agassi developed a reputation for being reluctant to play. Roddick said he did not think that reputation was accurate, but he said, 'We're a closer unit than that team was.' +'I'm very committed to playing Davis Cup,' Roddick said. 'I love the guys I'm with. That has a lot to do with it.' +Whether friendship matters will be further revealed when the United States plays host to Sweden in a quarterfinal April 9 to 11. +The site, which must be decided within 14 days, will probably be in Florida, California or Arizona, a spokesman for the United States Tennis Association said. +Sweden ousted the defending champion, Australia, 4-1, with Jonas Bjorkman and Thomas Enqvist winning the final two singles matches Sunday. +The last time the Swedes played the United States, they won the 1997 final, 5-0. +'These guys personally don't remember that, but I'll try to remind them of that in the coming months,' McEnroe said. +That defeat was among a string of disappointments for the United States, which has not won the Davis Cup since 1995. McEnroe said he would like to build an era of dominance. +Roddick said: 'Well, yeah, but we have got to get through this one first. You have to get to that first tier before you can become perennial favorites. Obviously, I think it excites Patrick like it does the rest of us that we have a pretty young core of guys who are very willing and very eager to play.' +The quartet that played here -- Roddick, ranked third; Ginepri, ranked 25th; and the doubles specialists Bob and Mike Bryan -- appeared inseparable. They spoke of their bonhomie, telling tales of friendly battles in Ping-Pong and arcade games. +'It's not anything that's canned or that we talk about,' McEnroe said. 'It is real. I think that the more they enjoy themselves, I think it has a big effect on the court.' +Ginepri said: 'It's extremely important to have a good relationship on and off the court. It makes it more fun, more energetic, more positive.' +McEnroe made no guarantees about who would play against Sweden. The only lock is Roddick, who said he thought that he had room for improvement. +Roddick has tinkered with his serve under his coach, Brad Gilbert. Although the controlled indoor environment here let him use brute force to blast two more serves of 150 m.p.h. on Sunday -- he set the record in his match Friday -- Roddick is thinking more location than speed. +'You can't have people sitting on your fastball,' said Roddick, who delayed a news conference to apologize to Joan Sweeney of Tampa, Fla., who had Roddick's first serve of the match ricochet off her shoulder and neck. He posed for a picture with her, and she later wore an ice pack. +Three Nations Advance +Spain, last year's Davis Cup runner-up, defeated the Czech Republic, 3-2, in a first-round match yesterday in Brno, Czech Republic. Rafael Nadal, at 17 the youngest man to play for Spain in the Davis Cup, topped Radek Stepanek, 7-6 (2), 7-6 (4), 6-3, in the deciding match. +Feliciano López started the comeback for Spain by beating Tomas Berdych, 6-4, 6-7 (2), 6-3, 6-4. Spain was without its injured stars Juan Carlos Ferrero and Carlos Moya. +Spain will meet the Netherlands in a quarterfinal in April. +Martin Verkerk beat Frank Dancevic of Canada, 6-7 (5) 6-2, 7-5, 6-3, yesterday in Maastricht, the Netherlands, to send the Dutch team into the quarterfinals.

For sleds, Sheer and his friends used a Flexible Flyer or a sledding dish, whatever was available. But the van he had seen belonged to the United States luge association. And Lake Placid offered a track that had been used at the 1980 Winter Olympics and the chance to hurtle down a refrigerated track at 70 or 80 miles an hour on a sled that cost as much as a used car. +'I literally wrote down the number from the side of a van,' Sheer said. 'They invited me to a grass-roots program in March of 1984. I went up, tried it out and they invited me back for the summer.' +Thirteen years later, Sheer and his partner, Chris Thorpe of Marquette, Mich., are favored to win the world doubles luge championship this weekend in Igls, Austria, near Innsbruck. They finished second at the 1995 and 1996 world championships and have won three races on the World Cup circuit this season. A victory would place them among the early favorites to win the first Olympic luge medal for the United States at the 1998 Winter Games in Nagano, Japan. +'We need to prove ourselves in a big race,' Sheer, who is 25, said Tuesday in a telephone interview from Igls. 'It would be nice to get that out of the way. In terms of setting ourselves up for next year, it would be a confidence builder.' +This weekend's race offers a rare attraction, Thorpe said. Parimutuel betting. To promote fan interest, luge racing has become horse racing in Europe. +'Our odds are 1-1,' said Thorpe, who is 26. 'That's kind of a strange feeling going into a race.' +Their success in recent seasons has followed a frightening episode in October 1993, when a group of American lugers went out to celebrate Thorpe's birthday in Oberhof, Germany, only to be attacked in a disco by a group of neo-Nazi skinheads. Sheer, who is Jewish, escaped and barricaded himself in his hotel room. +'I was living the nightmare that the Nazis were going to come and get me in the night,' Sheer said at the time. Several of the skinheads served jail time. +Last June, after numerous anti-Semitic incidents in Mamoroneck in Westchester County, Sheer and his teammate Duncan Kennedy, who was beaten up in the 1993 incident, spoke to high school students there about the lugers' experience in Germany. The lugers have been back to Oberhof several times since the attack without encountering any further trouble in the former East Germany. +'It was one of the worst experiences all of us have ever been through,' Sheer said. 'It had a long-term effect of making us all aware of what's around us.' +Although the Americans have never won an Olympic luge medal, they have recently joined the Germans, Austrians and Italians as powers in the sport. Wendel Suckow of Marquette, Mich., won the world singles title in 1993. A year later, the doubles team of Mark Grimmette and Jon Edwards finished fourth at the 1994 Winter Olympics, while Thorpe and Sheer finished fifth. +The reason for this success? In a word, money. Nynex, a corporate sponsor, has provided funding to hire topflight coaches, build topflight sleds and to attract newcomers through grass-roots clinics in the summer using wheeled sleds. +York, another sponsor, has provided a $1.1 million indoor refrigeration facility at Lake Placid that allows the lugers to practice their starts even in the heat of midsummer. The facility features three starting ramps pitched at various angles. In the past, athletes were left to practice their starts on the flat surface of the Lake Placid Olympic hockey rink. Essentially, the start is the most critical part of a luge race, which is often decided by thousandths of a second. +'If you're slow at the start, you're in trouble,' Sheer said. +Thorpe and Sheer have been partners since 1988. Thorpe, 6 feet 2 inches and 193 pounds, rides in front and steers with his legs. Thorpe, who is 5-10 and weighs 150, tucks in behind and steers by applying downward pressure with his shoulders. Sheer has no view except the back of Thorpe's helmet; he drives essentially by feel. +'I have the benefit of vision,' Thorpe said. 'Some people put their heads back and go down blind, but that's full of risk.' +This year, a modification in the sled design has allowed Thorpe the freedom to move his feet over or under an electronic timing eye that signals the beginning of a race. The trick delays the start of the clock by only a fraction of a second, but, as in sprinting, fractions of a second are like years in luge. The world doubles championships consist of two races that last about 40 seconds apiece. +'You're saving the length of the feet and the midcalf at the top of the course,' Sheer said. 'That can make the difference.' +LUGE" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"In Race for Fractions, Swiss Skier Stands a Tad Too Tall +The Swiss pride themselves on being precise and detail oriented, so they may have felt a sting when they found out what happened to their countryman Didier Defago at a World Cup ski race Sunday. +Defago won a super combined event, finishing a downhill in the morning and a slalom in the afternoon in a cumulative time of 2 minutes 42.96 seconds. He immediately began celebrating what appeared to be the first World Cup victory by a Swiss man in almost two years. +'Days like this, you just take it, lean back, and enjoy the sunshine,' said Bernhard Russi of Switzerland, the 1972 Olympic downhill winner, rejoicing in what he thought was the end of the drought of Swiss victories. +But as he spoke, officials from the International Ski Federation, a Switzerland-based organization known as F.I.S., discovered through a routine examination that a piece of plastic between Defago's ski boots and his skis was too thick. Finely calibrated equipment was brought in for backup tests. +After the second test, the F.I.S. jury determined that Defago's ski was a tenth of a millimeter over the legal limit. +No more sunshine: Defago was disqualified, his name was struck from the results, and Michael Walchhofer of Austria was declared the winner with a time of 2:43.15. Rainer Schönfelder of Austria, 0.17 behind Walchhofer, advanced to second place. +Bode Miller moved into third, but by the time the decision had been made, he was on a helicopter, bound for the next World Cup race, a slalom Monday night in Italy. +'I feel sorry for what happened to Defago,' Walchhofer said. 'He has done a great race today, and I would be totally pleased to be behind him.' +Defago violated F.I.S. World Cup equipment rule 2.1.2, which states that the maximum distance between the bottom of the running surface of the ski and the sole of the ski boot is 55 millimeters. +The rule and the strict enforcement offer a window into the lengths that ski racers will go to shave time off their runs. +While the World Cup slopes are long and varied, with an almost infinite number of variables affecting skiers' performances, races are sometimes won by hundredths of a second. +For years, athletes have inserted plates of plastic or aluminum between their boots and skis in order to dampen vibration in downhill. But about 10 years ago, someone discovered that thicker plates also gave them more leverage on the ski in the middle of their slalom turns, and athletes started increasing their 'stand height' until the F.I.S. intervened with restrictions -- fearing that such modifications would contribute to knee injuries. +Defago's equipment supplier, Rossignol, said that cold temperature had skewed the way the test was performed. +'We have made a small mistake with a big effect in the end,' said Michel Vion, the company's competition director. 'To be precise, we are talking about a tenth of a millimeter. +'Of course we respect the rules, but we should give the benefit of the doubt to the athlete.' +Defago could not be reached for comment, but Gian Gilli, the chief of competition for the Swiss ski team, spoke for him. 'He's disappointed, it's clear,' Gilli said. 'But he's a sportsman, and he'll accept the rules.' +Stand height is not the only way skiers are looking for an edge. The aerodynamic speed suits that downhillers wear in races cannot be made too aerodynamic. The fabric must have a minimum permeability of 30 square liters a second. The F.I.S. has a machine to test each suit at every race, because skiers push right up to that standard. +Miller was nearly disqualified for violating the rule Dec. 2 after finishing second to his teammate Daron Rahlves in the downhill when the World Cup tour passed through Beaver Creek, Colo. +Miller failed the first test, as did the third-place finisher, Hans Grugger of Austria, but the F.I.S. recalibrated the machine, and both skiers passed on their second test. The F.I.S. issued a warning to all teams and suit manufacturers. +The United States Ski Team's senior ski technician, Brian Burnett, said that every athlete, technician and coach obsesses about honing equipment to gain an edge. +'You could be looking at things like, you know, I could have polished them a bit more here or there, or I should have gone to a finer grit sandpaper on the sidewall,' Burnett said, speaking of a part of the ski that occasionally drags in the snow. +'There's not ever one single thing. Is it the label on the bib flapping in the wind? Is it the goggle placement on the helmet? It can go on and on. It's the entire package.' +SKIING" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Dorfmeister Acts Age To Win Super-G +If the talented young women of the United States ski team want to earn medals at the Winter Olympics in February, they are going to have to wrench them from the fingers of Austrian skiers like Michaela Dorfmeister, who won the super-G Sunday almost without breaking a sweat. +'She skis so well, so smooth, so clean, always has the right line, hardly ever makes mistakes,' said the American Lindsey Kildow, who finished in a tie for fourth. 'She has so much experience on every hill we go to, so it's really hard competing against her.' +Dorfmeister, 32, has competed in more than 300 World Cup races since her first one, on Dec. 21, 1991, in Serre Chevalier, France. At that time, Kildow was 7 years old, learning the basics of the sport on the short slope at Buck Hill in Minnesota. +Dorfmeister plans to retire in March -- with an Olympic medal from Turin, she hopes. She said she did not care what color it was. 'It's so hard making a medal at the Olympics, so you can be happy with a bronze as well as a gold,' she said. 'But gold is very special.' +Dorfmeister won the super-G in 1 minute 17.59 seconds. Her teammate Alexandra Meissnitzer was second (1:18.08) and Emily Brydon of Canada was third (1:18.15). +Dorfmeister and Meissnitzer are 32. Their teammate Renate Götschl, who struggled somewhat Sunday, is 30. Combined, the three of them have won 71 World Cup races. +Dorfmeister's mastery was evident in her winning margin of 0.49 of a second; the difference between the runner-up and the skier in 26th place was one second. 'She probably has something figured out from all these years,' said Julia Mancuso of California, who was seventh. +Skiers tend to listen when Dorfmeister speaks. She was one of the skiers who protested last winter that the course to be used for the Winter Games was too mellow. 'The girls want to have a technical slope, not a boring thing,' she said. +Organizers have retrofitted the course, and Dorfmeister, satisfied with the changes, is focusing on winning speed events. +'I think it's her last year and she's attacking more than she ever has,' Kildow said. +After winning Saturday's downhill, Kildow was awarded a 1,279-pound cow that munched hay near the finish area. The local cheese farmers who presented it to her -- from the Coopérative Laitière de Haute-Tarentaise -- expected they could buy it back for 1,000 euros, or about $1,200. +But much to their surprise, Kildow decided to keep the animal, working out arrangements to have the cow shipped to a farm near her training base in Austria. +'We were very touched that she liked it so much,' said Arpin Xavier, a representative of the co-op. 'Keeping the cash would have been much easier for her.' +STRONG SHOWING FOR ITALIANS -- Max Blardone and Davide Simoncelli of Italy finished 1-2 in a World Cup giant slalom yesterday in Alta Badia, Italy. +Bode Miller fell and did not finish his first run but kept his lead in the overall and giant slalom standings. His teammate Daron Rahlves finished fourth, losing time with a slight error at the beginning of his second run. +Italy is tied with the United States with four World Cup victories this season. Only Austria has more (eight). +Blardone pleaded with Italians to show more interest in the Turin Games; ticket sales in Italy have been slow. 'We're really putting our hearts into this and I hope this creates some attention,' he said. +(AP) +SILVER FOR HOST CANADIANS -- Beckie Scott and Sara Renner of Canada capped their sensational two-week World Cup run at home with a silver medal in the classical team cross-country ski sprint relay yesterday for their first top-three finish in the event.

At 32, he plans to retire and start a family. +'This is the greatest place in the world to ski race -- Austria -- because of the fans, the excitement, the energy,' said Rahlves, who was sixth in Friday's race, a super-G. 'Of any other place in the world, this is where I want to be on top.' +He will have to topple Maier, who does not dominate the sport the way he did before his near-fatal motorcycle accident in 2001, but who seems to hold a wealth of experience and aggression in reserve for the big occasions. +Like Friday, when Maier won in 1 minute 22.97 seconds, edging the upstart Italian Peter Fill. Hannes Reichelt of Austria was third. Bode Miller, who refuses to speak to the news media these days, skied off the course early in the race. +The Kitzbühel slope is magical for Maier, who has started six super-G races here since 2000 and has won five. In 2003, it was the first race he won after returning from his accident. On Friday, he described the slope as 'zugeschnitten,' German for custom-tailored. +'My run here over the years has been incredible,' said Maier, who had not won a World Cup race since the season opener in Sölden, Austria, on Oct. 23. He insists he will race for at least one more season after this. +The only Kitzbühel super-G Maier entered but did not win was in 2004, when Rahlves spoiled his party. The trash talk began about 10 minutes later, with Maier insinuating that the American had never won 'the real Hahnenkamm race.' +He was referring to 2003, when Rahlves became the first American downhill winner on the Hahnenkamm since Bud Werner in 1959, but only after organizers lowered the start because of bad weather, cutting out some of the scariest terrain. +Anyone who wanted to see sparks leap out of Rahlves's ears since then has merely had to mention the 'Mickey Mouse downhill,' which is what the shortened version was labeled by another racer. That is because Rahlves knows he excels on the course's upper section, which includes a jump called the Mausfalle (mousetrap) and a turn called the der Steilhang (the steep slope). +So Saturday will be Rahlves's last chance to walk away with a victory he can feel good about. A long line of retired American downhillers will be in his corner, rising early to check the Internet for results. +'It's the standard,' said A. J. Kitt, who was second at the Hahnenkamm in 1992, and now lives in Hood River, Ore. 'It was the toughest. Kitz is a 10, and the next closest is a 7 1/2 or an 8.' +Kitt said racing Kitzbühel had prepared him to race any other downhill. 'It's the hardest by a long shot,' he said. 'You recalibrate yourself.' +Bill Hudson, a United States Ski Team downhiller in the 1980's and 1990's, said, 'Probably for most guys, it's more important than the Olympics.' +Hudson is famous for going off the first jump on the course at the wrong angle, clearing the safety fences and crashing into a small shack. He broke his back, sternum and arm, punctured a lung and severely bruised a kidney. For three months after the crash he had double vision. +'I skied well after that,' Hudson said, 'but never fast again.' +Kitzbühel has been the site of career-ending injuries, and it has caused psychological damage, too. 'There's a lot of people who went to the starting gate and turned around,' said Tommy Moe, who had several top-10 finishes in the 1990's. 'Kitz is the most intimidating course in the world.' +On Wednesday, Moe, the 1994 Olympic downhill gold medalist, answered questions on his cellphone while powder skiing in Jackson Hole, Wyo. +He predicted Rahlves would win the Hahnenkamm, and the Olympic downhill as well. +OLYMPICS" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Bone-Shaking Slide to Gold By 3rd-Generation Olympian +He plunged face-first down the icy chute with a laminated photograph of his grandfather inside his white helmet, a bittersweet reminder of the legacy he was racing for. +The skeleton slider Jim Shea Jr. was the first third-generation Winter Olympian. His grandfather Jack Shea won two gold medals in speed skating at the 1932 Winter Games in Lake Placid, N.Y., and had planned to attend the 19th Winter Games. But on Jan. 22, Jack Shea died at 91 after his car was struck by a van on a snowy road near Lake Placid. The other driver was accused of driving while intoxicated. +Jim Shea Jr. raced today at just under 80 miles an hour on his rattling fiberglass sled, fighting for every hundredth of a second in memory of his grandfather. +After twisting around 15 narrow curves, after navigating for 51.07 seconds through a whirling snowstorm, Shea shot past the finish line, barreling through the throng of screaming fans with their American flags. He stood up and yelled in disbelief at his total time of 1 minute 41.96 seconds over two heats, enough to earn him the gold medal in a daredevil sport that had not appeared in the Winter Games since 1948. +Shea's underdog victory, by just five-hundredths of a second over Martin Rettl of Austria, the defending world champion, was the first of three medals for American skeleton racers today. +In the women's competition, Tristan Gale won the gold medal in 1:45.11 and Lea Ann Parsley won the silver. They scrambled off their sleds to chants of 'U.S.A.' even as their European opponents -- several of whom were considered more likely to win -- came over to hug them. +The world of skeleton racing is a close-knit one. Shea was warmly embraced by the men he had just beaten. Rettl's mother cooks for Shea when he races in Innsbruck. +After Shea's victory, he ripped off his helmet and took out the photograph of his grandfather, one of many funeral cards his family had made. There was the former champion speedskater, his grin as wide as his grandson's. +'I definitely felt him here today, and I definitely felt him at the opening ceremony,' Shea, 33, said. 'I think he had some unfinished business before he went up to heaven, and now I think he can go.' +Shea's victory came despite a debilitating circulation problem in his left leg that limited his walking and kept him from warming up properly, although he did do some short sprints before today's race. +Shea and Parsley have been two of the most visible symbols of American fervor during the Olympics. +Parsley, a firefighter from Ohio, was one of eight athletes who presented the tattered World Trade Center flag to President Bush during the opening ceremony on Feb. 8. +Shea took the Olympic oath on behalf of the athletes, as his grandfather had done 70 years earlier. Later that evening, Shea and his father, Jim Sr., a skier who competed in Nordic combined and cross-country in the 1964 Winter Games, were handed the Olympic torch in a ceremony that was to have included Jack Shea. +After winning the event today, Shea climbed up a fence to high-five his friends after his mother put a black fedora on his head. Then Jim Sr. grabbed his son in a bear hug, his eyes brimming with tears. +'You bet there will be celebrations tonight,' the father yelled to a friend through his cellphone. Then, turning to the crowd, he said, 'This is the greatest day of my life, of my family's life.' +The Sheas became the second family in Winter Olympic history to have two gold-medal winners. Bill Christian won gold with the American hockey team in 1960, and his son Dave was a member of the 'Miracle on Ice' team that won in 1980. +In the women's skeleton, Alex Coomber of Britain won the bronze. She was watching the scoreboard right after her run, knowing that she could be knocked down in the standings by Parsley and Gale, the two final sliders of the day. +'It's such a big deal, I'm not sure I'm ready to handle it yet,' Gale, a 21-year-old from New Mexico with red-and-blue highlights in her hair and glitter on her face, said of her gold medal. +Parsley, 33, was just as excited. 'I don't care what color it is,' she said of her silver medal. 'After watching Jimmy win his gold, it just felt good to see our program have such a great day.' +Many of the sliders said they were concerned when they woke up this morning and saw snow falling. The weather slowed everyone on the 4,380-foot track, and workers had to keep clearing the ice. But almost all the sliders reached speeds of nearly 80 miles an hour, grappling with forces so powerful that they prevented the racers from lifting their chins more than an inch off the ground. +Skeleton was invented in the 1880's in St. Moritz, Switzerland, by British Army officers vacationing there. They built a track called the Cresta Run that connected St. Moritz with a nearby village, where a bottle of champagne was given to the winner. That same track was used the two previous times that skeleton appeared in the Olympics, in 1928 and 1948. But Olympic officials discontinued it as too dangerous. +In the 1970's, skeleton became popular again with a small group of Europeans who traveled to artificial tracks in Germany and Austria to practice and race. +Skeleton's most dedicated followers lobbied to get it back into the Olympics. Mitt Romney, chairman of the Salt Lake Organizing Committee, said skeleton was included this year partly to enhance television advertising revenue. +Skeleton sliders are wedded to the sensation of risk. Gale has likened the sport to 'tying yourself to an airplane wing.' She switched from ski racing to skeleton about four years ago and began competing at World Cup events only this season. +'Normal people can do this sport,' she said. 'I love this sport. It was fun when we started and it's still fun now.' +Parsley is a registered nurse as well as a firefighter, and has said she would like to be a smoke-jumper. +After Shea's family moved to Lake Placid in 1988, he became interested in bobsledding, though his mother warned him against it. He soon switched to skeleton. To compete in World Cup events, he hitchhiked around Europe with a broken sled, sleeping in bobsled sheds and surviving on his credit card. +He won the world championship in 1999, placed second in 1997 and third in 2000.

But in 1988, the Austrians earned 10 medals, 6 in Alpine skiing alone. +Here, the Austrians have been the first-week wonders of these Olympics in the French Alps. Halfway through the competition, they had 14 medals (4 gold, 5 silver and 5 bronze) and were neck and neck with the Germans for the medal lead. +Why this success? Why is a democracy of seven million people winning medals not only in its beloved Alpine skiing, but also in ski jumping, Nordic combined skiing, speed skating and luge? Front-Page News +""Nobody knows,"" said Johann Skolek, a veteran Austrian journalist. ""There is no one answer. Everyone is surprised. We expected nothing from the Alpine skiers, and they are doing so well. I write for Der Standar, a political and economic newspaper. Since Monday, we have given half of page 1 to the Olympics. Everybody in Austria is talking Olympics and nothing else."" +Heinz Jungwirth, the secretary general of the Austrian Olympic Committee, spoke of momentum. In the first medal event of these Olympics, the men's downhill, Patrick Ortlieb of Austria, a rank outsider who had never won on the international circuit, won this big one. +""When the train gets moving,"" Jungwirth said, ""you just have to jump on."" +Austria's success goes deeper than fast-moving trains. It is a combination of forward-looking leadership in individual sports and dedication by athletes embarrassed by past performances. Stepping Up in Luge +The Austrians had not won a medal in the men's luge singles since 1968, in women's since 1964. Here, Doris Neuner and her sister, Angelika, won the gold and silver among the women, and Markus Prock and Markus Schmidt earned the silver and bronze among the men. +The Austrians' success in a sport dominated by Germans and German-speaking Italians was no accident. The Austrians hired Klaus Bonsack in 1990, when coaches from what was East Germany found themselves out of work. Bonsack quickly set up indoor practice in the basement of a deserted brick factory and outdoor practice on an ice ramp similar to the Olympic course here. The sliders started to train year round. +Josef Feistmantel, a 1964 gold medalist in luge doubles for Austria, is now an optician, but he was hired to help coach the luge team. +""We used to spend maybe $100,000 a year on luge,"" Feistmantel said. ""Now it's $300,000. We hired coaches. We built new sleds. We thought it was time to do well, to stop losing. But this much success? We didn't expect so much so soon."" +The Austrian ski jumpers were good, but not the best. Then Anton Innauer, a gold medalist in 1980, taught them the new V style, in which the jumper soars with skis forming a V rather than flush to each other. Innauer helped his team keep up other with the other countries that were also teaching the innovation, and the Austrians won the 90-meter gold medal and the team silver medal. +Traditionally, the major sport in Austria is Alpine skiing. This is the sport of such national heroes as Toni Sailer, Franz Klammer and Annemarie Moser Proll. +But the Austrians were apprehensive about Olympic skiing here. They had won only three titles, all by women, on this winter's World Cup circuit, which many consider more important than the Olympics. Petra Kronberger, who was capable of medaling in all five Alpine events for women, was mired in a two-year slump. +But Kronberger won a gold in the combined here, and Veronika Wallinger won the bronze in Saturday's downhill. Injuries and crashes have cost medals for three other Austrian contenders -- Hubert Strolz, Ulrike Maier and Sabine Ginther. Good Life in the Army +Prock attributes much of Austria's overall success to its support program for athletes. He said that in luge, bobsledding, speed skating, biathlon, fencing and team handball, 90 percent of the male athletes are in the army. +""We make about $1,200 a month,"" Prock, who is a sergeant, said. ""They take care of our rooms and meals. We are not so often there. We are here, there and everywhere. We do military work maybe two weeks a year."" +The Austrian women are not in the military, although many attend schools that give them time to train. Also, many of the athletes here work in summer to support training in the winter. For example, Doris Neuner is a government secretary, and Angelika Neuner is a nurse. +""This Olympic success is a relief from all the serious things in our nation,"" said Skolek, the Austrian journalist. ""But it's like when you go to sleep drunk. When you wake up the next morning, it will be gone.""

And when Jake Fiala, a powerfully built Coloradan who was born in Prague, put together a fine-looking run from the 10th starting position to take the early lead this afternoon, the Swiss fans were rolling their eyes and wondering whether these normally cooperative Americans were not getting rather carried away. +'The way things have been going, all of us would like to be on the podium,' Fiala said. +But a semblance of order was about to be restored. The Americans, including Bode Miller and Daron Rahlves, would soon lose their momentum, and skiing's traditional European powers would start gathering speed. When the last puff of powder had settled on this gorgeous afternoon in the Alps, Austria's Michael Walchhofer had the gold medal, Norway's ever-opportunistic Kjetil-Andre Aamodt had the silver, Switzerland's Bruno Kernen had the bronze, and Fiala, the top American finisher, was 1.82 seconds back in 12th place. +'It's quite a feeling to be part of this Austrian club of medal winners at world championships or Olympics,' said Walchhofer, not the Austrian who was expected to be pumping his arms on the top step of the podium. +The Austrian favorite was Stephan Eberharter, the world's dominant skier over the last two seasons. Eberharter had won five of nine World Cup downhills this season, but he ended up fifth, more than a second off Walchhofer's winning time of 1 minute 43.54 seconds. +Miller was more than two seconds behind. He has built on his reputation as the sport's emerging star by taking a silver medal here in the super-G and a gold in the combined event. +But he could come up with no on-the-edge feats today, placing 16th and skiing conservatively (for him) on the bottom section of the course. +Miller, who will be a medal threat again in next week's slalom and giant slalom, had hesitated about competing in the downhill but said he had neither regrets about racing nor concerns about spreading himself too thin by competing in all five men's events here. +'It doesn't use up that much energy; it's a great race, a lot of fun to run,' he said. 'Especially because I had the chance to do really well today. Had I nailed it, I could easily have been on the podium.' +He got much closer to the podium than Rahlves, his American teammate, who had been the best speedskier in the world coming into these championships. Last month in Kitzbühel, Rahlves won the most prestigious and daunting downhill race on the World Cup circuit, but the less intimidating course in St. Moritz did not play to his strengths. +Though Rahlves was the defending world champion in the super-G, he could do no better than 22nd in that event here and today he did not earn a placing at all. +Having already lost time in the technical midsection of the course, Rahlves decided that he needed something special at the bottom, which features two consecutive jumps. He handled the first but misjudged the second, landing off balance and traveling a fair distance on a single ski. He avoided a crash but could not avoid missing the final gate. Though he crossed the finish line, his error meant disqualification and a disappointing visit to St. Moritz. +'I'm not taking anything away from this place at all, but the top part of the course is just not exciting to me,' a dejected Rahlves said. 'But from 50 seconds down it's a fun ride. Look, if I want to be the best in the world, I have to be fast in every condition.' +Hermann Maier, who has completed a made-for-Hollywood return from a horrific motorcycle accident, finished eighth. When Maier, who tied with Miller for second in Sunday's super-G, saw his time today on the huge electronic scoreboard, he smiled and shrugged his shoulders, as if to say: 'Let's not be too greedy.' +Merely competing was a triumph, although the Austrian skiers whom Maier bumped off the downhill squad could have been excused for thinking that they would have gone faster this afternoon. +Nonetheless, it was still Austria's day, and instead of one of its established stars wearing the gold, it was Maier's good and much more anonymous friend Walchhofer who quieted the Swiss crowd of 38,000 by gathering tremendous speed near the bottom and trumping Kernen's leading time. At nearly 6 feet 5 inches, there is a lot of Walchhofer to appreciate. His physical presence is reminiscent of Austria's strapping 1992 Olympic champion, Patrick Ortlieb, but until today he had never won so much as a World Cup race. +At age 27, Walchhofer is no youngster by skiing standards. He is also married and the father of an infant daughter. Originally a slalom skier, he turned to speed events after struggling to control the new, shorter slalom skis. He can have no regrets, and after finishing second in four different downhills this season, he has made the big leap to winning one of his sport's signature events. +'He's been on the podium a bunch of times,' Miller said. 'It's not really that surprising.' +It was even less surprising to see the 31-year-old Aamodt on the podium again. He has not been as consistent a World Cup force as greats like Ingemar Stenmark, Alberto Tomba and Maier, but he has clearly mastered the art of peaking for the big race. Finishing 49-hundreths of a second behind Walchhofer today earned him a record 12th world championship medal. He also has seven Olympic medals, including two gold medals from the last Winter Games in Salt Lake City. +'He's an inspiration for all of us out here,' Fiala said. +SKIING" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"2 Athletes Worried They Broke Law +Austrian ski team officials said Tuesday that the two team members who fled after a police raid last weekend had confessed that they possibly 'used illegal methods' in preparing for their Olympic events. +On Saturday night, the Italian police raided five residences in the Alps where Austrian biathletes and cross-country skiers are staying. The police said they had confiscated syringes, glucose drips and other medical equipment. Italian law bans drugs that can be used to enhance an athlete's performance. +The biathletes Wolfgang Perner and Wolfgang Rottmann, hastily returned to Austria after the raid. They were subsequently kicked off the team and could not be reached for comment. +Markus Gandler, a top official with the Austrian ski federation, said at a news conference Tuesday in the mountain town of Sestriere that Perner and Rottmann had indicated to him that they might have done something wrong. +'They were scared of Italian law, and they preferred to leave because something was confiscated, only from them and not from the others,' Gandler said. 'They were worried it may have been illegal.' +The police conducted their raid amid reports that Walter Mayer, a coach implicated in a doping incident at the Salt Lake Games in 2002, was staying with skiers. After the raid, Mayer fled to Austria, where he was arrested on unrelated charges of crashing into a police checkpoint. +Peter Schröcksnadel, president of the Austrianski federation, said the police had taken Mayer to a psychiatric facility, where he was staying because it was feared he might commit suicide. Mayer appeared in an Austrian court Tuesday and pleaded guilty to several minor charges relating to his arrest. +Mayer was barred from the Turin Games and the 2010 Vancouver Games after blood transfusion materials were found at the Salt Lake Games. +At their news conference, the ski federation officials seemed to be attempting to limit damage to the reputation of Austrian athletes, who have been chastised here and at home after the raid. Salzburg, in central Austria, is pushing to play host to the 2014 Winter Games. +'I'm angry to answer such questions,' Felix Gottwald, an Austrian skier, told reporters who asked him about Mayer after Gottwald won the Nordic combined Tuesday. It was his second gold of the Games. He has also won a silver. 'I won a gold medal today, and I have to answer these questions.' +On Tuesday, Austrian athletes competed in biathlon and cross-country events, placing last out of 17 teams to cross the finish line in the 4 x 7.5-kilometer biathlon relay. 'We're drained,' the Austrian biathlete Christoph Sumann said. 'Physically and mentally, we're not here.' +The Austrian officials said their own doping tests had cleared eight athletes. But results from the tests on the 10 Austrian athletes and on the seized medical equipment had not been released. It was unclear when they might be made public. +Col. Angelo Agovino, regional head of the Carabinieri police force, said tests on the equipment generally take up to a week. On Monday night, the police returned to the room where Mayer had been staying. Agovino called it an inspection, and several police officials denied reports that more syringes had been found. +Blood and urine samples were taken from the Austrian athletes Saturday night and early Sunday. Since then, the International Olympic Committee laboratory at the Turin Games, comprising scientists from a Rome lab accredited by the World Anti-Doping Agency, has been running tests. +The screenings include tests for performance-enhancing drugs like erythropoietin, known as EPO, and for evidence of homologous blood doping. Those methods are used to increase red blood cells, which transport oxygen to the muscles and boost endurance. +There is no test for autologous blood doping, which is when an athlete removes blood, stores it and concentrates the red blood cells, then reinfuses closer to the competition. +The scientists testing the syringes, glucose drips and other paraphernalia will test the blood and fluids found in those items to see if they came from any of the Austrian athletes. The used bags of glucose drips that the police said they had found could have been used for simple rehydration, but they also could have been used to administer a number of banned drugs. Another use could be to increase blood volume and lower hematocrit and hemoglobin levels, red flags for drug use. +Drug-testing experts say that the tests for synthetic hormones like erythropoietin take two to five days. Tests to determine whether an athlete has had a blood transfusion, which also increases red blood cell count, can take two to three days. +Even if the lab finds nothing amiss with the athletes' blood and urine samples, the Austrians could still face punishment. In a briefing here Tuesday, Giselle Davies, a spokeswoman for the I.O.C., raised the possibility that Austrian athletes could be sanctioned if the tests on seized medical equipment come back positive. +'Antidoping rules can be violated not just by a positive test, but also by attempted use or possession of prohibited substances,' Davies said.

Three years ago, they chose as their class patron Baron Georg von Trapp, the family patriarch, who fled Austria because of his opposition to its Nazi occupiers. To honor him, the cadets accepted an invitation from the family and traveled en masse to spend the weekend at the Trapp Family Lodge here. +The ceremonies ended today in a morning Mass, at which the cadets stood watch during a performance of Franz Schubert's 'German Mass,' then laid a wreath at the grave of Baron and Baroness von Trapp, who were portrayed by Christopher Plummer and Julie Andrews in the 1965 film 'The Sound of Music.' +Nearly 50 people representing three generations of von Trapps from around the world gathered for the ceremony. The six surviving children are Eleonore Campbell, Rosmarie Trapp and Maria, Werner, Johannes and Agathe von Trapp, all of whom live in the United States. +'This is an important statement on the part of these Austrian officers that they chose as their patron someone who left Austria during the Nazi invasion,' said Johannes von Trapp, 58, of Stowe, the youngest of the famous singing children who toured Europe and, later, the United States as a family musical act. +'This is the fulfilling of a wish,' said Maria von Trapp, 83, of Stowe. +Walter Greinert, the Consul General of Austria based in New York, agreed. 'On the one side, I am here to express our appreciation of the fact that the von Trapp family always stood for patriotism and righteousness,' Mr. Greinert said. 'On the other side, I am here as a representative of a new Austria in a new Europe. We are a new generation now, putting behind us some of the troubles of the past.' +Because of the movie, many Americans are aware of some basic biographical facts: Maria Augusta Kutschera left a convent to become the von Trapp family's governess (in fact, she left the convent to care for Maria, the daughter, who was an invalid at the time), and she later married the Baron. The von Trapp family fled Austria in 1938 to escape the Nazis, and they eventually immigrated to the United States. +In 1942, the Baron and his wife bought a farm in Stowe and built the lodge, which burned in 1980 and was rebuilt. Some family members have continued to run the lodge as an inn and ski resort. +For the most part, the weekend events focused on Georg von Trapp's military career. A 1898 graduate of the Austrian Imperial Naval Academy, he commanded a submarine during World War I and was influential in the development of submarine warfare and torpedoes. 'He was seen as a hero for his work as a submarine commander,' said Saurugg Herbert, an Austrian cadet. +Johannes von Trapp said that his father, who died 50 years ago, was offered a position in the German Navy after the invasion of Austria. The Baron strenuously objected to the Nazis, so he refused, Mr. von Trapp said. +The touchiest issue of the weekend involved the attitude of the Austrian Government toward the family after its flight and whether this ceremony was to be understood as an official apology to the family. +'It was politically significant that they chose a man most well-known for his opposition to the Nazis,' said Mr. von Trapp. +'The view of the von Trapps was always one of appreciation,' said Mr. Greinert. 'Most Austrians agreed with his attitude, and there was never any official criticism of his decision.' But he added, ' 'The 'Sound of Music' was not shown in Austria for many years, and the fact that I am here now represents the change in the government and the people of Austria.'" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Dorfmeister Doubles Her Holdings in Gold +After waiting 32 years for her first Olympic gold medal, Michaela Dorfmeister of Austria had to wait only five days to win another. +The celebration, however, did not begin immediately. Though Dorfmeister was the last of the contenders to finish the super-G on Monday, she skidded to a halt with a serious expression on her face as she stared at the scoreboard and kept seeing nothing but Janica Kostelic's name. +'Janica stayed on top,' Dorfmeister said. 'I could not find my name on the screen.' +Eventually, Kostelic was the one who delivered the good news to Dorfmeister with a congratulatory hug. +'I said: 'What? I can't see me,' ' Dorfmeister said. 'But then I enjoyed it.' +Kostelic appeared to be enjoying herself, too, despite being bumped out of first place. Her silver medal was something of a bonus. She entered these Games feeling weak and feverish because of lingering effects of the flu, and she withdrew from the opening event, the downhill, citing an accelerated heartbeat. +She came back to win the combined event Saturday, but was expected to withdraw from the super-G, which was scheduled for Sunday. 'A lot of the skiers out here think that Janica is an actor,' said her father and coach, Ante Kostelic. 'But she's not acting. Her health is much more fragile since she had her thyroid problems. It means that she falls ill more frequently. She has to be careful.' +When a blizzard postponed the super-G to Monday, Kostelic threw herself back into the mix and proceeded to increase her record Olympic medal count to six: four golds and two silvers. +'Probably when I quit skiing, I will think about it more,' said Kostelic, a 24-year-old Croat. 'Right now, I'm just concentrated on my skiing. It's not about how many medals I won or will win. I'm just having fun.' +Alexandra Meissnitzer of Austria finished behind Kostelic to win the bronze, her third Olympic medal. +The Americans Julia Mancuso and Kirsten Clark finished 11th and 14th. Lindsey Kildow, who crashed spectacularly in downhill training last week and was briefly hospitalized, was seventh Monday. +For anyone who saw Kildow's training crash, her performance Monday was remarkable. But Kildow, one of the world's leading speed skiers, arrived here with higher expectations, and with two events remaining -- the giant slalom and the slalom -- the American women's Alpine team has yet to win a medal. +'I thought my destiny was going to be here, but apparently, Italy just isn't my place,' Kildow said. 'Maybe North America is my time to shine.' +That was a reference to the next Winter Olympics, in 2010 in Vancouver, British Columbia -- a sports festival that will probably take place without Dorfmeister, who said that she planned to retire after this season. +Dorfmeister is reaching her lifetime goals now, and it was a sign of her state of grace that the conditions in which she won her gold medals here were radically different. The downhill was contested on a cloudy day in flat light on artificial snow that had been packed and prepared for weeks. The super-G was run in brilliant sunlight on a course that had required yet another all-night work session from Italian soldiers and maintenance workers to clear off a thick layer of fresh snow. +'It's the best when you can stop your career on top,' Dorfmeister said. 'I want to give a big compliment to the organizers. They got so much snow, and today it was possible for us, the last racers, to make good times.' +It has been quite an Olympics for Dorfmeister, who had only one silver medal upon arrival, and quite a sweet-and-sour Olympics for Austria, which is embroiled in a doping investigation involving cross-country skiers and biathletes, but whose Alpine skiers have won nine medals in seven events. +'She seems to enjoy skiing; you can see it,' Kostelic said. 'When you want something too hard, it doesn't come out good. I like the way she is now. This season, I really like her.' +Dorfmeister, who was sitting next to Kostelic as she spoke, laughed off the compliment. +'It's not just me,' she said. 'It's the material I'm using, and the luck is all on my side.' +2006 OLYMPIC WINTER GAMES -- ALPINE SKIING: WOMEN'S SUPER-G" +False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Kostelic Smooths Rough Road With 3rd Gold +Because she is not ranked among the top competitors worldwide in the giant slalom, Janica Kostelic began her pursuit of Olympic history as the 19th skier from the starting gate today. That meant she skied about a half-hour after the first of the favorites, enough time for the snow on the race course to develop ruts like foxholes. +But it takes more than ruts to hinder Kostelic. Three knee operations in the past year did not stop her, just as a training regimen of eight-hour days on skis as a teenager did not dispirit her. Fleeing war in her native Croatia and driving throughout Europe in search of a welcoming mountain did not discourage her. Sleeping in the family car with her father, mother and brother, or, for at least a week, sleeping in a cave because it was the safest haven from artillery did not distract her. +What then is so bad about a few dozen ruts? +On skis that she powered through the choppy snow conditions, Kostelic completed her first run in the giant slalom today 49-hundredths of a second ahead of the field, which is a significant margin. +For her next trick, as the halfway leader, she would ski 15th in the second run -- last among the leaders. Kostelic ripped through the course again, minimizing any disadvantage from the starting order as easily as she lapped the field again. +In these Olympics, there is no other skier -- male or female -- in Kostelic's class. In any single Olympics, there has been no other skier in Kostelic's category: four-time medal winner. She won the giant slalom, the slalom and the combined, and was second in the super-G. +With her victory today, Kostelic also tied Jean-Claude Killy of France and Toni Sailer of Austria as the only Alpine skiers to win three gold medals in one Winter Olympics. And Kostelic could have easily had four gold medals in the Salt Lake Games. Last week, she was second in the super-G by five-hundredths of a second. +Entering the 2002 Games, the record for Olympic Alpine skiing medals won in a career was five, a mark that has since been extended to seven by Norway's Kjetil Andre Aamodt, a 30-year-old veteran of four Winter Games. Kostelic is 20 and has already passed Aamodt in gold medals. +Earning the silver medal today was Sweden's Anja Paerson, who trailed Kostelic's winning combined time of 2 minutes 30.01 seconds by 1.32 seconds. Sonja Nef of Switzerland, ranked No. 1 in the world in slalom, won the bronze medal. +The top American finisher was Kristina Koznick, who was 17th. In the five women's Alpine events of the 2002 Olympics, no American skier placed higher than sixth. +Kostelic appreciated her milestone accomplishments for what they mean to others. 'The records by themselves do not matter,' she said. 'Making my family and all the people from my country happy, that matters.' +Gone are the days when she would win a World Cup race and organizers would not have a Croatian flag to display at the medal ceremony. 'It happened all the time,' said Kostelic, who started packing a Croatian flag in her ski boot bag. It happened, in fact, at a World Cup race in 1998 at Park City. +Today, they could have gone into the grandstand and requested any one of the 15 to 20 flags that Croatian fans had brought to fete Kostelic, the country's first sports star whose likeness was put on a postage stamp. +That was after she had won the World Cup overall title in 2001, a distinction earned primarily by a streak of eight consecutive slalom victories. But physical problems have always plagued Kostelic, and she endured two operations on her right knee last spring and summer. When the knee did not respond as well as Kostelic had hoped, she scheduled a third, arthroscopic surgery in October. At that time, doctors discovered and removed a random, floating piece of tissue. +Only then did Kostelic begin the road back that has led to four Olympic medals in a nine-day period. +Still, coming to Utah, there was no predicting the sweep of medals to come. Kostelic said before the Winter Games that she was focusing on saving herself for the combined and the slalom. She declined to enter the downhill, afraid to risk injury. 'I just wanted one medal and after I won the combined, nothing else mattered,' Kostelic said. +Ranked 30th in the world in the giant slalom, Kostelic knew her position in the starting order today would be unfavorable. 'I figured I'd just kind of go with it and see what happened,' Kostelic said. +When she finished her first run, her competitors knew the race was most likely over. +'She's proved that mentally she's the best,' Paerson said. 'Right now, she's incredible. After all she's been through, I'm really happy for her.' +With the women's Alpine events concluded, Kostelic plans a trip home soon. 'I need a rest,' she said. +Then reminded of the mob scene of friends, family and Croatian fans that enveloped her after her victory today, Kostelic added: 'Of course, I don't know how quiet that will be. It's going to be nice. It's going to be crazy.' +OLYMPICS: WOMEN'S GIANT SLALOM" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Pessimistic Kronberger Wins the Combined and Aims for 4 More Golds +In this morning's freezing rain, Petra Kronberger had skied the slalom a bit slowly, conservatively, knowing that if she made a horrible mistake she lost any chance to become the women's combined champion. +But then, in the afternoon snowstorm that howled through this valley, obscuring the peaks, she suddenly changed her strategy. +""I tried to put the Olympics out of my mind,"" said Kronberger, Austria's most popular, and perhaps most troubled, skier. ""But still I had to go fast so I wouldn't be sorry later."" +She has no regrets. +She went through 43 gates fast, faster than anyone else negotiated either of today's two runs. She skipped 350 meters down the mountain in 34.24 seconds. And so the two-race total, combined with her first-place finish in Wednesday's downhill, gave her the gold medal. She plans to go for an unprecedented four more, too: in the downhill, the slalom, the giant slalom and the super giant slalom. Less Pressure Away from Home +She has been a dour Austrian hero, having fallen and injured herself in the super G world championships last year before her countrymen at home. To her, it was one more example of not living up to expectations. +""This experience was good because I was not under as much pressure,"" she said today. ""I was not at home."" +The combined formula is weighted. Thus, a person can win the combined without winning a race. +Anita Wachter, also of Austria, and the winner in Calgary in 1988, took the combined silver even though she finished 12th in the downhill and second in her runs today. With today's gold and silver, the Austrians have now captured 12 medals, already equaling their best Winter Olympics yet, the 1964 Games at home in Innsbruck. +Florence Masnada of France earned the bronze. +Krista Schmidinger of Lee, Mass., who had been a stunning second in the downhill portion, was expected to finish far back today because Americans do not spend much time on the slalom runs. Instead, Schmidinger was a respectable 14th today, and wound up 11th over all. +""I just wanted to rip on my second run,"" said Schmidinger. ""I had nothing to lose."" +But of her earlier run she explained, ""I couldn't see the hill this morning."" +She estimated that she spends perhaps 10 percent of her training time gearing for the slalom. Now that she has done relatively well, she said, she will take it more seriously. +Her next race is the women's downhill. She will presumably heed her father's advice, given to her before the downhill. ""I told her,"" said Elmar Schmidinger, ""Ski like a butterfly."" +But the downhill presents another gold opportunity for Kronberger. And perhaps another disappointment. Better she does not think about it. +""I found if I really want something, I don't get it,"" she explained. She won the downhill in the world championships in Austria last year, set her sights on five medals and then fell during her next race. A Lesser Event? +She also knows that to many Austrian purists, the combined is a corrupted event not worthy of an Olympic medal. The combined's downhill and slalom courses are not as demanding as those individual Olympic races. +She wanted to revel in today's victory, though. She also wanted to displace remembrances of a sixth-place finish in Calgary in the downhill. +""Five medals,"" she said. ""This is not simply something you can just push a button to do. Everything from now on is just icing on the cake. But if it doesn't work, I won't be unhappy."" +She conceded she had a bit of luck in being in position to win the combined. Austria's best skier in the event, Sabine Ginther, hurt her back in a practice run on Tuesday and was sent home to be hospitalized. +Alongside today's course, fenced off, children slid down the snow not even using sleds.

He dispatched his wife to her sister's home in New York, knowing that it would be impossible to find time for her for days. +'This is a nightmare,' he said of what has gone on since Feb. 4, with the swearing-in of a new government that includes the far-right Freedom Party led by Jorg Haider, who has praised policies of Austria's Nazi rulers in World War II. 'You think of the job of a diplomat as a dream under usual circumstances,' Mr. Moser said. 'Well, what is going on now is the reverse. +'It does not feel real. It is surreal.' +Every day the embassy's mailbag bulges with scores of letters from Americans condemning Austria; some are filled with obscenities. 'There are serious letters, and then others are just offensive,' said Mr. Moser, a 58-year-old career diplomat. 'Maybe people get a personal relief if they call us names.' +The creation of a coalition government that includes Mr. Haider's party has turned Austria into a pariah within the 15-nation European Union, which has severed routine contacts with Vienna. The Clinton administration has protested by withdrawing the American ambassador, and Samuel R. Berger, the national security adviser, has been warning of the possible emergence of 'the extreme hateful right' in Europe. +The crisis has forced Ambassador Moser to dive into the whirlpool of Washington's 24-hour news cycle, as he tries to convince Americans, and the large foreign press corps based here, that Austria is being unfairly tarred. +In the last 10 days, he has appeared on CNN and on PBS's 'NewsHour,' as well as at a news conference on Friday at the National Press Club, the first solo news conference in Mr. Moser's 33-year career in the Austrian diplomatic service. +'Haider is not Austria, and Austria is not Haider,' he said at the press club in an awkward effort to distance the people of Austria from the government that they put in place -- and that he must now represent. +He insisted that although the Freedom Party might be xenophobic, it was not fascist, and that while Mr. Haider might be an opportunist prone to outrageous remarks (praise for Nazi labor policies and for SS veterans), he was not a Nazi. 'We from the diplomatic establishment have to walk behind him, after him, and pick up the pieces,' Mr. Moser said. +Later, in his embassy office, Mr. Moser slowly sipped from a glass of water. Behind his desk was a stack of papers, topped by a book by Mr. Haider outlining his right-wing politics. On the cover is a photo of the well-tanned, carefully coiffed politician, who could easily pass for an American television anchorman. +'It was given to me,' Mr. Moser said. 'I don't think I will read it.' He resisted an appraisal of Mr. Haider's character. 'My personal feelings, I am not being paid for,' he said. +Trying to salvage Austria's reputation was certainly not the assignment Mr. Moser expected when he arrived in Washington last year. His initial goal, he said, was to expand trade and to encourage Americans to think of his nation of eight million people as the economic hub of central Europe. +'I'm very sad and sorry because what we built up over the years is now being questioned,' he said of Austria's efforts to portray itself as a peace-loving member of the European community, and to distance itself from its Nazi past, when Austria embraced German rule under the Austrian-born Hitler. +He said it was unfair to single out Austria for condemnation when parties similar to Mr. Haider's exist across Europe and could, like the Freedom Party, enter government someday soon. 'One day they will wake up and find that they have similar problems,' he said. 'All of these remarks of Haider, which remember the Nazi history, are a wonderful instrument to distract attention from this fact.' +He does not deny that his job is made more difficult by the perception that Austria is unwilling to confront its history, a view that grew stronger outside Austria after voters elected Kurt Waldheim president in 1986 despite revelations about his service in Hitler's army. 'Yes, I think there are many people -- not only in the Freedom Party, but many, particularly older people -- who have not done this process of atonement,' Mr. Moser conceded. +THE ambassador could be considered another victim of the war. He never knew his father, an Austrian soldier in the German Army, who was sent off to the front two days after his only child was born in Vienna in June 1941. His father was killed in 1943. +Mr. Moser did well in school and entered Austria's diplomatic academy in 1965. His career as a diplomat has taken him to posts as diverse as New Delhi, Seoul and Sofia. His favorite posting was in Los Angeles, where he was consul general from 1979 to 1985. 'We lived in a house with a swimming pool in a wonderful neighborhood,' he said. +But the carefree sunshine of Southern California is far from his thoughts as Mr. Moser rushes through Washington's winter chill from one interview to another, trying to limit the damage to Austria's reputation. +'When the dust settles,' he said, 'it will be a lot of work for us to get back what we have lost.' +PUBLIC LIVES" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Kildow Sheds a Label and Wins a Silver +Carving smooth turns on hard snow is a skill that ski racers spend a lifetime perfecting, but on some level, it is simply about who dares to go the straightest on race day. +Lindsey Kildow of Park City, Utah, has that mettle. Even after being battered by a series of painful crashes in recent seasons, Kildow knows how to 'let them run,' keeping her tips pointed more in the direction of gravity's pull than most of her rivals. +Kildow took the silver medal in the women's super-G on Tuesday, as the Alpine skiing world championships began after three days of weather-related postponements. +Anja Paerson of Sweden was the only woman to find a faster way down the course, which started high above the tree line, plunged down into a frost-encrusted forest and ended on the shore of a long frozen lake. She finished in 1 minute 18.85 seconds, followed by Kildow in 1:19.17 and Renate Götschl of Austria in 1:19.38. +The whole frigid tableau was glittering in the sunshine, and the clouds suddenly vanished from Paerson's face, too, as she ended a season-long slump, at home here in the remote and lonely mountains of northern Sweden. +Kildow, 22, described how she lost by 32-hundredths of a second to Paerson. 'I made a little mistake in the middle section,' she said. 'I got a little bit of air off this roll and it caused me to go wider than I wanted to.' +As she cut back and forth across the hillside, at an average speed of 52 miles an hour, Kildow resisted the urge to put just a little more swing into her turns and wore a new speed suit that was black and white -- in keeping with the businesslike approach to her career. +At first Kildow appeared disappointed with second place, but her reaction soon shifted to joy as she realized she had broken a string of poor results in big events. She had been without a medal after three fourth-place finishes in the previous world championships two years ago in Italy and a crash at last year's Olympic Winter Games. +Kildow said she was getting wary of always hearing that her teammate and longtime rival Julia Mancuso, the Olympic giant slalom champion, could rise to the occasion when the stakes were high. +'I felt like she was getting a name for being a big-event racer, and I was kind of out of the picture,' Kildow said. 'I felt like no one thought I could do it. I believed in myself, but I feel like I had some bad luck.' +That sentiment is common among the members of the United States team and their supporters. The team underperformed at last year's Turin Games and has regained its pride on the World Cup circuit this year. +Nevertheless, the team has played its cards closer to its vest at this event, choosing not to broadcast any specific goal for medals. +The women's super-G was run hours after the men's event, in which the defending world champion Bode Miller lost his title. On his course, he took an even straighter line than Kildow and made more mistakes. +The top American in the race was Steven Nyman, in 12th place behind Patrick Staudacher, an unheralded Italian who finished in 1:14.30. +Second and third place went to Fritz Strobl of Austria (1:14.62) and Bruno Kernen of Switzerland (1:14.92), a pair of 34-year-olds, each the last to qualify for his nation's four-man race quota. +Staudacher had cornea transplant surgery in June 2005 to treat a problem known as keratoconus, a thinning and bulging of the cornea that distorts vision. (He had tried compensating with contact lenses, but they would shift while he was skiing at high speeds.) +The next event at the two-week championships is the men's combined event Thursday, followed by the women's combined Friday and the downhills this weekend. +'Everyone knows that I'm fine, I can do it, it's not a big deal,' Kildow said, looking ahead. 'I feel like for the downhill I can just relax and have fun and go fast and go one step higher on the podium.' +SKIING" +False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Justices Take Case on Nazi-Looted Art +A closely watched legal dispute over the ownership of works of art once looted by the Nazis reached the Supreme Court on Tuesday as the justices accepted an appeal by Austria and one of its state art museums on whether American courts have jurisdiction to resolve such cases. +An 87-year-old California woman, the niece and heir of a prominent art collector, Ferdinand Bloch-Bauer, who fled Vienna in 1938 and died shortly after the end of World War II, has spent decades trying to get back the remains of the collection he left behind. At issue are six paintings by Gustav Klimt, including two portraits of Mr. Bloch-Bauer's wife, Adele. The six paintings, now in the Austrian Gallery in Vienna, are worth more than $100 million. +Austria maintains that the paintings were left to the state and its museums under the will of Adele Bloch-Bauer, who died in 1925, and that the Nazis had illegitimate possession of them during the war does not change the fact that they properly belong to Austria now. +The niece, Maria V. Altmann, disputes that interpretation, maintaining that her aunt's preferences about the eventual disposition of the paintings never achieved the status of a formal bequest to the government. Ms. Altmann filed a lawsuit in Federal District Court in Los Angeles three years ago. +There has not yet been a trial to sort out the competing interpretations, and the Supreme Court will not decide the merits of the case. Rather, the question for the justices is whether the case can proceed at all under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act, a 27-year-old federal law that defines the terms for suing foreign governments in the federal courts. Although the issue is a technical one, it could be decisive in resolving a variety of cases involving the behavior of foreign governments and their agencies in World War II. +Such cases have been proliferating. In June, for example, the federal appeals court in New York reinstated a suit by Holocaust survivors and their heirs against the French national railroad, which transported tens of thousands of Jews and others to the Nazi death camps. That decision was appealed to the Supreme Court last month. Also in June, the federal appeals court here dismissed a suit against Japan, brought on behalf of 15 women from other Asian countries who had been subjected to torture and sexual slavery in World War II. +The status of two paintings by another Austrian painter, Egon Schiele, remains in dispute in New York, where they were claimed by two American families after they were lent by an Austrian foundation to the Museum of Modern Art in 1997. +The Nazis are believed to have seized 600,000 important works of art, with 100,000 still missing. +The location of the Klimt paintings has not been in doubt. Only their ownership has been disputed since the late 1940's, when Ms. Altmann and the other heirs tried and failed to get export permits to take them out of Austria. Several years ago, the Austrian government returned $1 million worth of porcelain and Klimt drawings to the family, but refused to yield on the paintings. +Ms. Altmann, an Austrian native who settled in California after the war and became an American citizen, turned to the federal courts after learning that a suit in the Austrian courts, where filing fees are based on a percentage of the amount in controversy, would cost nearly $2 million. +The Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act provides exceptions to the general rule that foreign governments are immune from suit. One exception authorizes suits 'in which rights in property taken in violation of international law are in issue' in connection with 'commercial activity.' The question for the Supreme Court is whether that exception, which became official United States policy in 1952 and was not codified until 1976, can be applied retroactively to conduct that took place before 1952. So the issue in this case, Republic of Austria v. Altmann, No. 03-13, obviously encompasses foreign governments' immunity from suit for the entire World War II era. +Both the Federal District Court in Los Angeles and the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, in San Francisco, refused Austria's request to dismiss the suit, both on retroactivity grounds and on other grounds that the justices chose not to review. The federal government entered the case late in the lower court proceedings, unsuccessfully urging the Ninth Circuit to reconsider letting the case proceed. +Solicitor General Theodore B. Olson has not yet filed a brief presenting the government's views to the Supreme Court, but undoubtedly will do so now that the justices have accepted the case. The federal government's general position is that diplomacy, not litigation, should be used to resolve disputes growing out of the Holocaust." +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"I.O.C. Is Losing in a Game With Drug Cheaters +ITALIAN authorities are attempting to validate their raid of Austrian athletes last week by turning their investigation into a game of 'Clue.' +Was it Colonel Mustard in the billiard room with a lead pipe? Or was it Walter Mayer in the Austrian House with a glucose drip? +Or did the cook do it? +Prosecutors interviewed a cook for Austrian athletes during the Winter Games in an Olympic doping investigation that has thus far netted no one. Officials from the International Olympic Committee disclosed yesterday that none of the 10 athletes in the raid of Austria's biathlon and cross-country teams tested positive for a banned performance-enhancing substance. +'Samples did not show up any adverse findings,' said Giselle Davies, an I.O.C. spokeswoman. 'This is only one element in this undoubtedly wider affair.' +So the Pink Panthers persist. Detectives may yet find more than the circumstantial physical evidence they have now -- like the cache of syringes and a bag of blood found in the raid -- but the excessive sleuthing is largely for show. +'It's like an episode of 'Cops,' ' Charles Yesalis, a Penn State professor and steroids expert, said when reached yesterday. 'All you need are the perps.' +As it is, the only perp-like villain is Mayer, an Austrian Nordic coach barred from Olympic participation through 2010 after a maid found blood-transfusion supplies in the closet of his room at the 2002 Salt Lake Games. +Snoops from the World Anti-Doping Agency ratted out Mayer, who was playing roomie with Austrian athletes as the Turin Games began. Agency officials whispered their detective work to I.O.C. leaders, who alerted the Italian police. +Apparently unskilled at the art of skulking, the police arrived with sirens blaring. Mayer fled an athlete's residence bound for Austria, where the hills were alive with the sound of his car smashing into a police roadblock. +This escapade is not grist for a caper, though; it's the Hollywoodesque camouflage to the real issue: the I.O.C. is falling further behind the drug cheats. +For all the police maneuvers and vigilance of I.O.C. testing, as of yesterday there has been only one competitor, the Russian biathlete Olga Pyleva, to test positive at the Winter Games. +This doesn't mean athletes are cleaner, just craftier. The development of designer steroids resembles a lizard's tail. When one is detected and cut off from athletes, another one grows in its place. +And drug-weary officials know it. Arne Ljungqvist, chairman of the I.O.C.'s medical commission, was asked if it was possible that the Austrian athletes tested negative because they were on the newest undetectable miracle substance. +'My answer is, I don't know,' Ljungqvist said. 'I don't know.' +Here is the rub. Some experts believe police action is the only way to scare dopers straight, yet police action is only as effective as the evidence to support a crime. +If there is no positive test, is there proof of a violation? Remember, the track star Marion Jones was not banned from the 2004 Athens Games for her involvement with Victor Conte of Balco infamy. She passed every test. Why risk strip-searching the innocent in a raid if the guilty parties cannot be caught with a urine cup? What good is the I.O.C.'s tough-love deterrent if the doping cheats are undeterred? +Without a foolproof test, the I.O.C. is helpless in closing the loopholes of the Olympic drug culture. Right now, the I.O.C. is outdated and primitive in its approach to the high-tech world of boutique doping, choosing elephants to chase lab mice. +'I don't think the I.O.C. has a game plan,' Yesalis said. 'The drugs help sell the Games because there would be no records of bigger-than-life people doing bigger-than-life things. +'So I think the I.O.C. is in a bind. There is so much money at stake. They're flailing for the right answer.' +The untidiness of drugging is not I.O.C President Jacques Rogge's style. He doesn't like messes. Hasty to his detriment at times, Rogge likes to make quick work of scandals to preserve sponsor love and the Olympic image. +'He has a difficult job,' said David F. D'Alessandro, former chief executive of John Hancock Financial Services, a longtime major Olympic sponsor. 'But I think what Rogge does is he moves pretty quickly at containment.' +Doping is the one issue that appears out of his control. No matter how much money is dumped on research, or how wide the dragnet, most drug cheats continue to escape. +'You would need Tony Soprano with wiretaps and e-mail taps, but would people stand for such sting operations?' Yesalis said. +The undercover mob tricks are too unseemly for most. The best cure is the perfect test. Until then, the police raids will do more harm than good to the Olympic image. +In the six days between the raid and drug results, the idle time gave life to every conceivable Olympic rumor: the nation of Austria had survived a secret vote to cast it out of the I.O.C. (false), the Austrian athletes had tested clean (true). +So far, there are only negative testing results in an Italian caper fit for 'Clue,' a whodunnit mystery with plenty of glucose drips, but not a lead pipe in the room. +Sports of The Times E-mail: selenasports@nytimes.com" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Miller Closes A Wide Gap To Capture The Silver +It was not over for Bode Miller. No race this year has been over if Miller has had at least one more shot at the leaders. +Sure, he had already fallen once today. But he somehow ricocheted from sideways in the snow to upright on his skis, a stupefying, perhaps life-saving recovery. As Miller said: 'I had to get up. If I didn't, I might have killed myself and some other people out there.' +Hours later, Miller's near-death experience was nothing more than a memory, a little snow shaken out of the speed suit. +Now he had just one chance left in the Alpine combined, a daylong event made up of one downhill run -- where Miller fell -- and two slalom runs. With the second slalom run remaining, Miller was significantly behind the leader, Norway's Andre Kjetil Aamodt, who just happens to be the most decorated skier in Alpine history. +How far behind was Miller? If it had been a football game, he would have been down by four touchdowns in the fourth quarter of the Super Bowl. In baseball, he would have been down by nine runs in the bottom of the ninth in Game 7 of the World Series. Basketball? Trailing Michael Jordan's Chicago Bulls by 20 points in the final 10 minutes. +To win the goal medal, Miller needed to ski the 60 gates of a steep, challenging slalom course 2.44 seconds faster than Aamodt, a margin that is unheard of, especially against the reigning world champion in the event. 'But then,' Aamodt said later, 'I have never seen anybody ski so fast as this guy.' +Miller charged through his final run, a surge that electrified the crowd of 25,000 that began to chant 'Bo-de' as Miller descended the course. Miller closed the gap, a stunning comeback, but could not catch Aamodt, who won the gold medal in today's Alpine combined at the Snowbasin Ski Area by 0.28 of a second. Aamodt's combined time of 3 minutes 17.56 seconds was good enough for his sixth career Olympic medal and his first gold-medal performance in 10 years. +Miller's silver-medal charge, however, could well be the skiing moment of these Olympics, a rally that will be fable in years to come with Miller saving himself from disaster in the downhill, then skiing a final slalom run that was 1.81 seconds faster than anyone in the field -- and more than two seconds faster than 24 of the 25 competitors. +Benjamin Raich of Austria won the bronze medal with a combined time seven-tenths of a second behind Aamodt. +'It was a long, amazing day,' said Miller, whose medal is the seventh for the United States Ski and Snowboard Team at the Salt Lake Games. +Aamodt said, 'Bode is revolutionizing skiing in the slalom and giant slalom.' +Those are the two events Miller has left in these Olympics, events he will likely be favored to win after today's performance. +The three runs of the combined were contested on the same day for the first time in Olympic history. Aamodt, who held the record for most Olympic and world championship skiing medals (15) before today's event, quickly took the lead with the best downhill time. Miller, meanwhile, headed into the final section of the combined downhill course -- a shortened version of the regular Olympic downhill course -- after a few slips and skids; he was putting together an otherwise respectable time for a skier with little elite-level experience in a speed event. +'Then, suddenly, at about 60 miles an hour I was on my side sliding right toward my coaches on the edge of the course,' Miller said, describing his spill. 'I got up as fast as I could, not to finish the course so I could be second in the combined. I got up so I didn't kill myself and some coaches.' +Getting up was only half the miraculous recovery. Miller then had to shift his weight immediately from his right ski to his left, execute a tight right turn and soar over the Buffalo Jump with enough balance to land it and start turning again. +'That was an adventure,' said Miller, who was in 15th place after the downhill. 'It took maybe two-tenths of a second. It took years off my life.' +Behind Aamodt by 2.44 seconds after the downhill, Miller figured to whittle away at the difference in the first slalom run. Instead, he skied poorly again. His first slalom time was exactly the same as Aamodt's, leaving Miller with the same deficit. Several other skiers fell in the first slalom, so Miller jumped to the fifth spot over all, but he seemed to be skiing for a bronze medal at best. That would mean making up 76-hundredths of a second in the final slalom run. +But Miller, who has the chance to become the first American skier to win three Olympic medals, skis slalom these days with an attacking line and aggressiveness no other skier can match. He flew down the course, faster than anyone in the flush gates -- those placed in a straight line -- and faster than anyone when the gates were spread wide across the hill and required a deft side-to-side motion. +'He is in a class of his own,' Aamodt said. 'He is like Alberto Tomba was. If he can keep his focus, he can catch up with him.' +Aamodt is a gracious man whose skiing career is unmatched, even by Tomba, and not just for the number of Olympic medals. Aamodt has won medals in four Olympic events, a versatility rare these days. +But Aamodt is right about Miller, who seems to engender awe and respect like no other skier right now. The American skier Casey Puckett, who fell in the first slalom run today, was asked before the second slalom run if he thought Miller could make up the deficit to win a bronze medal. +'Bronze?' he said. 'No problem. Really, he should have no problem. But Bode is probably not thinking about bronze. Bode thinks big.' +OLYMPICS: ALPINE SKIING" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"The Other Side of the Mountain: Skiers Provide Lessons in Grit +THE details of Hermann Maier's folk tale are written in the topography of his oxlike body. +There is a plum-size skin graft that bulges from his right calf and zipper scars in his left leg from the insertion of a titanium rod. There is also an imprint of joy in his blue eyes. +He has never been considered the warm legend of Austria, with the grand Franz Klammer as a model. Klammer was of pristine farming land; Maier worked as a bricklayer. Klammer was more ballroom dancer on the slopes with his impeccable balance; Maier bulled through peril. Human vs. Herminator. +So how did Maier become all at once more mortal and mythic yesterday? +He won an Olympic silver medal in the super-G, able to mix his resilient spirit with his longevity of talent. +'To win a medal, it's perfect,' said Maier, 33. 'For me, for sure, it was hard work. If you have success after injury, it's a wonderful feeling -- and it's more than before.' +There is the Herminator before the motorcycle accident on Aug. 24, 2001, before a 73-year-old German turned his car without a signal on Highway 99 near Radstadt, before Maier ended up in a grassy bank looking at his nearly severed leg. +There is simply Hermann after the accident, the man who needed painkillers that altered his mood and the physical-therapy patient who had to learn to walk again. +Before and after merged yesterday on the podium. +What does this miracle of alchemy mean? It is possible for a man to control his own myth. +Somewhere, Bode Miller was adding to his dubious legend. He bolted out of the start hut, then, in less than the time between hiccups, slammed into a red gate high on the mountain. His left ski skipped against the snow behind him, twisting and turning like a broken helicopter blade, as he glided to the side of the course on one ski. +A few minutes later, after Maier's silver medal run, Miller was spotted sneaking down the far side of the course and skiing to a side exit, slipping behind the grandstand and disappearing. +Will Miller ever seize control of his legacy? Will he ever feel empowered to shape the memory of his talent? +There were two how-to examples yesterday. To the right of Maier in the news conference room was the gold medalist, Kjetil Andre Aamodt, 34, of Norway. +Aamodt and Maier have a common bond in recovery powers. In the 1998 Nagano Games, Maier flew off the men's downhill course, rolling like a tumbleweed as he crashed through two safety nets. He was finished, everyone said. Two days later, Maier won a gold medal in the giant slalom. +Not to play can-you-top-this, but Aamodt was once drip-fed during a bout with mononucleosis only to win a 1992 Olympic medal two months later. Two years ago, he lost a season to torn ankle ligaments but managed quite deftly to grab gold here on the rebound. +'When you are injured, you treasure what you don't have,' Aamodt said. 'It's a good life to be an Alpine skier, in my eyes.' +Maybe pure love of a sport makes all the difference. Sometimes, Miller is more apt to embrace the rebel glory of spectacular failure than honor his sport with accountability to expectation. +'Fame is almost a poison,' Miller told La Gazzetta dello Sport of Italy last week, adding, 'I could give up tomorrow without having the slightest regret. +'I could keep away from this world for a year and then perhaps start to feel the desire to prove something to myself again.' +Maier and Aamodt have proved that happiness and victory can live as one in their fish bowls. Maybe it's age, though Miller is not a swaddled newcomer at 28. Or maybe it's just adult perspective gained through life experience. Perhaps in his R.V., far removed from the medals presentation, Miller was probably living the life, absorbing his day's work with a beer. +'When you achieve something, it's better to lie on the bed and feel the good feeling inside of yourself,' Aamodt said. 'I don't feel like going out to party too much. I'm a father now; I have to be responsible.' +Maier and Aamodt act responsibly toward their own legacies. They respect the history they are making despite its consuming nature. +'I don't think there were sacrifices,' Aamodt said. 'The sport has given me a lot of opportunities.' +Why not make the most of them? On the podium, standing on surgically repaired legs, Maier added to his lore once again. He didn't have to lose skiing to understand his love for it; and yet it was briefly taken away on a highway. +'It's perfect for me to have this great feeling, to have fun with skiing and then to have victories, its big moments,' Maier said. +How many more big moments? +'I haven't thought about it in detail,' Maier said of retirement. 'As long as skiing is fun and not too much pressure, I think I can go on.' +He could smile at the thought of his next race.

But yesterday, after a forced three-day break in which heavy snow gave way to unseasonably warm temperatures, the snow was soft and the contours of the downhill relatively unfamiliar, but the women were not allowed another training run. All they got was the chance to inspect the reworked course. +But by the time the last racer finished, the Austrians were back on familiar territory: Dorfmeister was flanked by the silver medalist, Renate Goestchl, and the surprise bronze medalist, Selina Heregger, whose best previous downhill finish was eighth. +'We weren't really worried about the unrest,' Goestchl said, referring to public concern over Austria's performance here. 'We knew we were good, and I think this result wipes away all the criticism.' +It was an odd, occasionally unsettling race. The third racer, Emily Brydon of Canada, lost control of her skis in the lower third of her run as she entered a tricky, bumpy section known as the power turn. Brydon went flying into the security fence at full speed, her neck snapping back, her left knee twisting awkwardly, and after she slid to a stop, she stayed down long enough for the crowd to fall silent. Brydon would eventually rise and limp off the course with what Canadian officials suspected was a torn medial collateral ligament in her knee and with what anyone could tell was a badly damaged helmet. +Goetschl, who started 11th, had gone ahead with a typically bold effort in which she made up a quarter of a second in the bottom half of the course to finish in 1 minute 36.34 seconds. But Dorfmeister, who finished second to Goetschl in 1999, would find a way to reverse the pecking order. With the crowd audibly ambivalent, she sailed across the finish line and blew kisses to the sky as soon as she saw her time of 1:36.20. +Aamodt, 29, won the men's combined with experience and precision. He has now won more medals (14) than any other male skier in Olympic and world championships competition, and his very predictable victory yesterday broke his three-way tie in the Alpine record book with his teammate Lasse Kjus and Marc Girardelli, the Austrian who raced for Luxembourg. +CHRISTOPHER CLAREY +PLUS: WINTER SPORTS" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,"A German Legend Loses to an Italian, Then Loses His Composure +Georg Hackl, the 35-year-old German luge legend, spent most of his postrace news conference today smiling about his silver medal and breezily dismissing his place in luge history. +But on the final question, Hackl coughed on his own tears and the interview ended in a hush as the once-invincible icon took a tissue from his pocket, succumbing to a history that truly mattered. +An Italian, Armin Zoeggeler, 28, dethroned Hackl today in the men's luge and foiled his chance to become the first Winter Olympian to win four straight gold medals. +With the International Olympic Committee president, Jacques Rogge, at Utah Olympic Park to see if Hackl would make luge history, Hackl, by winning a silver medal, still became the first Olympian to win medals in five consecutive Winter Games. +'It doesn't really matter to me,' Hackl said cavalierly, and then added his irreverent view of his place in the Olympic annals.

His competitors did not know how to comfort him, letting him walk off the podium alone. +Markus Prock, the 37-year-old Austrian who is a longtime rival of Hackl, won the bronze medal. He has never beaten Hackl in the Olympics. +This is likely to be Hackl's final Olympics, capping a career that started with a silver medal in Calgary in 1988. He said he would re-evaluate his career after next year's World Cup. +'I feel great to have this awesome career, especially in the Olympic Games, and maybe I am very lucky because you also need to have good luck to win medals,' Hackl said with a smile before being overcome. +'Sure, when you talk about Olympic history, O.K., statistically speaking, it would have been nice,' he said. 'But you know I don't really care about that. Sure enough it would have been unique. The gold has certainly been won by the best man.' +Zoeggeler, who was runner-up to Hackl in the 1998 Nagano Games and won the bronze at the 1994 Lilllehammer Games, won with a combined time today of 2 minutes 57.941 seconds. He led from the first run Sunday and finished more than three-tenths of a second ahead of Hackl. Zoeggeler held a lead of just 41-thousandths of a second coming into today's third run and widened that to 232-thousandths by opening with a track record. +That got Hackl's attention. 'I knew I no longer had the chance for a gold medal, because Zoeggeler appeared to be very self-confident and secure, like clockwork, and even a very major mistake couldn't have cost him his chance for a gold medal,' Hackl said. +He finished 329-thousandths of a second behind, in 2:58.270. Prock was third in 2:58.283. And Adam Heidt, the Long Islander from Northport, N.Y., finished fourth, the highest finish ever for the United States in singles luge. His time of 2:58.606 was more than a half-second behind Zoeggeler's. +Zoeggeler did not take any perspective from defeating Hackl. 'I came to compete well and later I will have the time to reflect on history, but not during competition,' said Zoeggeler, who is from a small town, Voiana, in the Dolomites. +Zoeggeler is the defending world champion, even though Hackl won four of the seven World Cup races this season. +Hackl's father witnessed the victory in Königssee, Germany, but on the way to the medal ceremony, he was stricken and rushed to the hospital. He never recovered. +Hackl returned to training the next day. He crashed in his first World Cup race after his father's death, then won the final World Cup race. +Prock and Zoeggeler praised Hackl as the ultimate technician and perfectionist, constantly tinkering with his Porsche-designed sled. +'When you watch him in the luge lying flat, you don't need to comment on him any more,' Prock said. +All morning a crowd of 14,000 lined the track, five and six deep, some even shirtless in the sun-kissed day. The crowd chanted the leaders' first names, reserving their loudest cheers for Heidt. +Heidt had a faster time than Hackl in the third run, but then his glove spike got turned around on his start, bloodying his right pinky, causing the briefest of delays and costing him a chance at the bronze medal. +'I definitely thought I could medal, but it just didn't happen,' Heidt said. 'But I was in fourth place and I'm psyched with that.' +Wendell Suckow was the previous highest finisher for the United States, a fifth in 1994. Heidt improved his ninth from the 1998 Olympics. +Later, he watched as the three friendly rivals from Europe joked during the postrace ceremony, as Prock and Hackl lifted Zoeggeler to form a pyramid. But everyone knew it was Hackl who had lifted the sport. +'Georg has made us a little more famous in Europe -- and hopefully a little more famous now in America,' Heidt said. +OLYMPICS: LUGE" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"An American Crashes the Slopes +Bode Miller liked being on the victory stand with the two Austrian superstars today. He did not mind saying out loud that he wished he had the gold medal. +'You finish second, it's like, 'I'm second in the world,' ' Miller told friends this afternoon with ambivalent shrugs. +Actually, he tied for the silver medal, a rare occurrence in these days of nanosecond computing, with the reconstructed Hermann Maier in the super-G race. Stephan Eberharter won the gold medal in the world championships of skiing, which will continue for the next two weeks. +Miller has fought through the stereotype of being somebody from a counterculture background who grew up with no running water or electricity and who, in school as well as in skiing, did things his way, perhaps to his detriment. At 25, he could be the best young skier in the world, with Maier having turned 30 and Eberharter approaching 34. +To put it in American baseball terms, Maier and Eberharter are the Mantle and Maris of Alpine skiing, a very big sport in the mountains and even in the cities of old Europe. +Maier is the lusty people's choice, making an amazing comeback from a motorcycle injury. Eberharter skis in the reflected glow of Maier and is leading the World Cup overall standing, ahead of Miller. +Just to challenge the Austrians, to exchange little medalist pleasantries (in English) with these two big-timers, is a signal accomplishment for an American skier. +In 2001, Daron Rahlves won the super-G at the world championships, and Miller became the first American man to win consecutive slalom races since Phil Mahre won three straight giant slaloms in March 1983. The twins Phil and Steve Mahre won the gold and silver medals at the Sarajevo Olympics in 1984, but that was nearly two decades ago. +Miller won two silver medals in the 2002 Salt Lake Games and could have had a third except that he extended himself trying for the gold medal and flew off course. This year, battling Eberharter and watching Maier come back, he has outgrown the old labels. +'We're friends,' Miller said. 'We talk about the equipment.' +In the past, the Austrians respectfully talked about Miller as a wild and crazy guy. After a recent race, Eberharter said: 'He's a very good skier. He takes a lot of risks, especially today. But if you want to win, you have to take risks.' +Massimo Lopes Pegna, the American correspondent for La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Italian daily sports journal, recently described Miller's past slalom style as that of the cowboy who kicks open the swinging doors of the saloon and offers whiskey all around. +That might be changing. Today, Miller went up on the hill, as all skiers do, to survey the gates that had been set up Saturday after the skiers took practice runs. He learned from the first two skiers, who flew out of bounds because they had not read the hill. +To hear Miller talk about it later, in the intricate shop talk that links anybody with a special skill, every second of his 1 minute-39.57-second run was full of choices. At one point, he said, he had followed the tracks of earlier skiers, only to regret his decision. +'The wheels almost fell off,' he said. +He started 23rd and took the lead. Then Maier, starting 26th, tied him, fading in the final stretch. Eberharter came out of the 30th spot and finished in 1:38.80, and half the spectators went out for the local hot wine drink. The last 25 starters were filler. Form had held. Two Austrians and one Yank. +Later, Miller sat in a hotel lounge here and discussed his evolution as a racer. +'Every athlete has certain tools,' he said. 'I had balance and feel, but I was lacking in endurance and experience.' +He added, 'My speed crippled my consistency.' +He gravitated to the slalom, the highly technical event of repeated sharp turns around gates. He tended to take them on more than other skiers. He feels he was slow to adjust to the super-G, a faster event in which the gates are fewer, and is only now coming to grips with the downhill. +'It hasn't been my choice to not win,' Miller said the other day. 'I've been 5-6-7-8 in the super-G and downhill. I'm surprised I haven't had more of a breakthrough.' +Why did Miller go through a period of crash-and-burn? +'From what I can tell, he's always been chasing after a certain feeling, a certain speed, with not as much concern with technique -- chaotic, hellbent, all those terms you've heard,' said Phil McNichol, the new coach of America's Alpine skiers. +'He went out to conquer terrain and not trying to win.' +Statements like this have brought out the iconoclast in Miller. This is a young man whose parents retreated to rural New Hampshire to live off the land. They schooled him at home for a while and encouraged him to think independently, which did not always endear him to the teachers and ski coaches who came along later. +'I don't necessarily agree with Phil,' Miller said. 'It just took me time to gain experience.' +Now he is a big deal in this part of the world, where people recognize him at airport baggage claim areas. Back home, Miller is a rumor to the general public. 'My family and friends go online at 4 in the morning to check my times,' Miller said. +He understands that other sports have priority. He even uses a basketball simile to say that dynasties come and go, like the Celtics and the Bulls and maybe now the Lakers, and that the Austrians are in a surge right now. Twelve of the top 20 skiers in the World Cup standing are from Austria. +Miller sees no reason why the sports channels in the United States could not show the personalities and the skills of skiing -- and yes, even the crashes -- the way they do auto racing. +'Same thing,' he said. 'Speed, danger, objectivity. No judges deciding who won.' +Was this a dig at figure skating, the cash cow of the Winter Games? Miller did not elaborate. He had to clean up to go to the victory ceremony -- along with the two Austrians, his colleagues. +SKIING" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"World Champion Dies of Brain Injuries +Régine Cavagnoud, the world champion super-G skier, died here this morning as a result of brain injuries from a collision in training. +Doctors at University Hospital pronounced her dead when it became clear after tests that her brain was no longer functioning. 'We lost the battle because her brain was no longer receiving the oxygen it needed,' said Dr. Norbert Mutz, head of the hospital's intensive care unit. +Cavagnoud, 31, who would have been a leading contender for France this February in the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, had been in a coma since the collision, which occurred Monday on the Pitztaler Glacier in Tyrol. +She underwent five hours of emergency surgery that evening after being transported to Innsbruck by helicopter with Markus Anwander, a German coach who was also injured. Anwander, 40, who has a fracture at the base of his skull and other head injuries, remained on artificial ventilation in intensive care but was in stable condition after spinal surgery. +Cavagnoud's death sent a shudder through her high-speed, high-risk sport and could cast a pall over the Olympic season. With skiers already concerned about competing in the United States because of terrorism, they will now have to cope emotionally with the loss of one of the sport's more respected competitors. +Cavagnoud, the world champion in the super-G last season and an eight-time winner on the World Cup circuit during her career, is the most prominent skier to die on the slopes since 1994. In January that year, Ulrike Maier of Austria crashed and died after slamming her head against a timing post in a downhill in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany. +Maier's death launched an intense re-examination of safety procedures during World Cup speed events and prompted several changes. Cavagnoud's death could generate a similar re-evaluation of training safety. The Innsbruck prosecutor's office is conducting an investigation of the accident and is examining Anwander's role. +'Sadly, an investigation of this sort looks to assign responsibility,' Bernard Chevalier, president of the French ski federation, said. 'For me, it's not important to designate who is responsible. What interests me is finding out why this happened, and for now we don't know exactly.' +It is difficult to find training sites in Europe during this period of the season, which began last weekend with two races in nearby Sölden. (Cavagnoud was third in the women's giant slalom.) The few Alpine glaciers with ski facilities are in high demand by top teams, and the German and French women's teams were training together on the same slope Monday, hardly an unusual arrangement. +A report from the Tyrolean provincial police said the accident was a result of a misunderstanding. While some German coaches were aware that Cavagnoud had started her run, Anwander 'did not receive the information, either because he didn't understand or because there was a technical problem.' +Cavagnoud, who, because of injuries and self doubts, had to wait until she was 30 to become a world champion, ended up having precious little time to savor it. +SKIING" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Austria's Kronberger Built for Speed, and It Shows +There are many racing skills and techniques that can be mastered in training. Speed, however, is not one of them. In skiing, as in most sports, it is an innate gift, wholly natural to those who have it and wholly incomprehensible to those who don't. +For the two-time World Cup champion Petra Kronberger of Austria, the gift is a heightened sensitivity in the feet and legs that allows her skis to slide just a little faster than those of her competitors. +""I think I have an advantage over most of the other girls because I am able to compete in all four disciplines,"" said the 22-year-old Kronberger, who won her first overall World Cup title in 1989-1990, repeated last season and is leading in the current standings after a downhill victory at Serre Chevallier, France, last weekend. +""Most skiers specialize in technical races like slalom and giant slalom, or in speed races like Super-G and downhill. I am able to do well in all of them. I don't have to win every slalom or every downhill. I know that if I ski badly one day, I'll have a chance to make up for it the next."" Starting Off Right +It is a Friday evening in December, two races into the 1991-92 World Cup season. Kronberger had placed second and third in last week's opening slaloms at Lech am Arlberg, Austria. Now she and her teammates are preparing for Saturday's Super-G and Sunday's giant slalom here at Santa Caterina, in northern Italy. +She is off to a good start, she says. Nothing like last year's start, of course, when she literally left the rest of the field in her dust with three victories and a second place in the first four races of the season. The astonishing sprint provided her with so comfortable a lead that she was able to sit out seven races to rest the left knee she injured at the February world championships in Saalbach, Austria, and still finish the World Cup season with 312 points, 127 points ahead of the 1988-89 champion, Vreni Schneider of Switzerland. +Born in Pfarrwerfen, Kronberger began skiing at the age of 3 and was racing before her seventh birthday. At 15, she earned a spot on the Austrian ski team. +""Like any other Austrian girl, my idol at the time was Annemarie Moser-Proll,"" she says, remembering the legendary Austrian who won five consecutive World Cup titles between 1971 and 1975 and added a sixth in 1979. +""When I started working out with the national team, I saw that there were lots of girls who could ski. I thought that I had a chance to compete. But I knew it would be hard. You need more than talent and hard work to succeed in this sport. You have to ski well. You have to avoid injuries. And most of all, you need good luck."" +Kronberger climbed onto her first podium in World Cup competition with a third-place finish in the downhill at Zinal, Switzerland, in 1987-88. At the 1988 Calgary Olympics, where Schneider emulated Alberto Tomba of Italy by winning gold medals in both slalom and giant slalom, Kronberger's sixth place in the downhill went virtually unnoticed. Surprise Winner +Kronberger was not yet 21 when she won her first World Cup race, a downhill at Panorama, Canada, at the beginning of the 1989-90 season. +""It was a surprise for me,"" she said. ""I thought that I'd skied well, that maybe I'd be among the first three. But I didn't think that I would win."" +By season's end she had won two downhills, two giant slaloms and one slalom. And with an aggregate of 340 points, she had edged out her teammate Anita Wachter to win her first World Cup title. +""It was a very hard season, the first one,"" she said, her deep blue eyes reflecting the firelight at the Baita Sciatori lodge where the Austrian team stays in Santa Caterina. ""Especially when I was leading at the end. It was so hard to believe. I kept thinking that my luck would run out."" +Kronberger, who at 5 feet 8 inches and 136 pounds is small for a racer, particularly a downhiller, admits that she feels some pressure in light of her consecutive World Cup triumphs, and even more with the thought of the upcoming Winter Olympic Games in Albertville, France. But she says that she felt far more pressure last season. +""I had to demonstrate that I didn't win the World Cup because of luck,"" she said. +""I wanted people to see that I deserved to win it because I ski well. This year it's different. I don't have as much to prove. I just want to do my best, to have fun, and to have some good results. I don't want to have to think about having to win the World Cup again."" +Santa Caterina had been lucky for Kronberger in her first championship season. The engaging Austrian won the giant slalom there and finished third in both the downhill and SuperG. +In her Saturday race, Kronberger missed a gate in the Super-G after having registered the fastest intermediate time. At the bottom, she was patient while repeating to waves of reporters how she had picked up speed coming into the sharp curve and failed to shift onto her downhill ski in time. And she was gracious, even flattered, when mobbed by a pack of autograph-seeking children. Only when she was finally alone with her Austrian coach, Raimund Berger, did she betray her disappointment by stamping her boot against the snow. +""One gate,"" she lamented. ""Just one gate."" Looking Out for Schneider +On Sunday, Kronberger fell during the second run of the giant slalom, which was won by Schneider. The 27-year-old Swiss skier, who won six out of seven giant slaloms and all seven slalom competitions on her way to a record 376 points in 1988-89, appears to be over the knee problems that have hampered her the past two seasons. Kronberger knows that Schneider will probably be her toughest competition for the overall World Cup title and also for a gold medal in the slalom and giant slalom at Albertville. +""The Olympics will definitely be the most important event of the year,"" said Kronberger, who believes that her major weakness as an athlete is a lack of confidence. In fact, she has never excelled in major competitions. +At the 1989 world championships at Vail, she did not win a medal. She did win the downhill at Saalbach last February. Yet she had been expected -- unrealistically -- to win medals in all five events before the partisan Austrian crowds.

There was a bronze medal earned the hard way for Susi Erdmann of Germany, the favorite. +There was a fifth place for Cammy Myler of Lake Placid, N.Y., the highest ever for an American in Olympic luge, and a ninth place for Erica Terwillegar of Lake Placid. +For the other American, 29-year-old Bonny Warner of Mount Baldy, Calif., there was an unexpectedly low finish, 18th in a field of 24, which she accepted with serenity. +For Warner, the first American to score highly in international luge, there were also tears Tuesday night, tears this morning and more tears as she talked about the emotions pulling her. +For after 12 years of racing little sleds on her back at up to 80 miles an hour, after many early days of eating crackers and cheese and 89-cent chili specials and many nights of sleeping on floors because there was no money for better living, this was her last race. The best ambassador the sport ever had in America was retiring. Differing Perspectives +To most of the Americans, Warner's final race was disappointing. To her, it was not. +""I came here saying I wanted four good runs,"" she said. ""I had four good runs, not fast but good. So I'm happy. I would be happier if I finished higher."" +In truth, Warner's two runs Tuesday and two today were sluggish, and she often entered curves too high or too low. Myler raced well, a remarkable feat because a stomach virus has weakened her the last two days. She has frequently been dizzy, nauseous and sick. She fainted briefly after her last run. +Erdmann is the world champion. She also won the World Cup season-long series by a point from Myler, so she was the Olympic favorite and Myler a medal favorite. Instead, she won a medal only because Andrea Tagwerker of Austria, who started the day in third place, slid into a wall and finished seventh over all. +The fastest racers on this 1,258-yard, 14-turn course were the Neuner (pronounced niner) sisters from the Austrian Tyrol. Doris is 20 and Angelika 22. Their father got them into luge nine years ago. After Tuesday's two runs, Doris ranked first and Angelika second. They were so excited that they stayed up talking until 4 A.M. +Doris took the lead on Tuesday's first run and never lost it. She completed the four runs in 3 minutes 6.696 seconds. Angelika finished in 3:06.769, less than a 10th of a second behind. Erdmann was timed in 3:07.115, Myler in 3:07.973, Terwillegar in 3:08.547 and Warner in 3:09.757. Hi Mom! Hi Pop! +When the race had ended, Poppa and Momma Neuner, arm in arm past the finish line, hugged and kissed and cried and laughed. At the finish house, the sisters hugged and stared at each other, almost unsure if this was a dream. +Myler's fifth place was the best by an American woman or man in Olympic luge. The previous best was Warner's sixth place in 1988 in Calgary. If Warner had mixed feelings about losing that distinction, she could have been excused. Instead, she was thrilled. +""I really wanted Cammy to beat my finish in Calgary,"" Warner said, ""because that would mean we are doing better."" +Moments before Warner said that, she was in tears. She has been looking forward to retirement, but she has also dreaded it. +""It sank in last night,"" she said. ""We have to polish our runners before every race. As I did last night, I remembered it was the last time I had to do it. I cried. Then this morning, before the last run of my life, I couldn't stop crying. I got a newspaper and read it and I stopped crying. I'm O.K. now."" +Not quite. She started crying again. +For a week, the effervescent Warner had been reminiscing about her career, how she was introduced to the Olympics by being one of the 50 people selected to carry the Olympic torch in 1980 to Lake Placid, N.Y., how she was talked into trying the luge run there. It looked like fun, she said, but scary. Then a 7-year-old went whizzing down the course. +""How could I back out then?"" she said. 52 Crashes in Row +She tried it. She was hooked, and her life changed. +""When I started."" she said, ""I crashed 52 times in a row. I said this was ridiculous. I wanted to go home because I had a nonrefundable ticket. But I stuck with it, and I'm glad. +""I've spent so much time at this that it took me seven and a half years to graduate from Stanford. I've made 5,000 luge runs. This is the time for me to retire. At a certain point, you don't like spending all that time away from home. What are you missing? Life? +""No, I can't say that. I have a degree and a job I love, flying for United Airlines. But who wants to date someone who's away all the time. I'd like to have a family, and how can you do it with the life I've been leading. So it's time to quit.""

It was not fast enough. +But at a peak speed of somewhere above 85 miles an hour, it still proved to be faster than everyone else. When his teammate, rival and the last conceivable spoiler, Stephan Eberharter, finished 32-hundredths of a second behind, Maier celebrated his 46th World Cup victory and a temporary return to the top of the overall World Cup standing nearly 33 months after an elderly German driver took a wrong turn into his motorcycle and nearly severed one of Maier's legs. +'I made mistakes,' Maier said after the race. 'I thought it would not be enough, but the others made the same mistakes.' +Friday, after a slower training run, Maier said that he was merely happy to be back in the running and was looking forward to next season. While the skiing world has been saying 'the Herminator is back,' Maier says he is still on the way up. +'I have still power, it's not the same as before, but it's getting better and better,' he said in English. +It was a superlative day for Austria, the skiing world's juggernaut. On Saturday, Austrians took the top four spots and 7 of the top 10 on a cloudless day, which softened and slowed the course named after another Austrian skiing legend, Karl Schranz, who was in attendance. +Maier, who cannot forget a loss, said he was happy to correct a past wrong by winning at St. Anton, where he had lost before his accident in August 2001. +'I won the race I lost three years ago,' he told reporters in the finish area. +While the Austrians were triumphant, the race was a disappointment for an ascendant American team led by Bode Miller and Daron Rahlves. Miller, ranked 31st in the downhill standing before the race, said he was satisfied with an eighth-place finish, but disappointed for his friend and his teammate Rahlves, who needed to stay ahead of Eberharter to have a realistic shot at capturing the season's downhill title. +'I don't know what happened,' said Rahlves, who spent the week recovering from illness and finished 11th, falling behind Maier to third in the downhill standing. 'I felt good coming down.' +But Miller, who spends much of the season in nearby Innsbruck, has served notice on the Austrians, who have taken to affectionately calling him the crash pilot for his aggressive style. At Friday's practice run, autograph-seeking Austrian children, who are bred to worship their national ski heroes, alternated synchronized calls for 'Hermann' and 'Bode.' +Watching the race Saturday, Schranz was impressed with Miller. +'Bode is a real threat and can take on anyone,' he said. +But Schranz questioned whether the versatile American should be competing in all four disciplines, which could tire him. +On Sunday, while Maier rests, Miller will compete in the slalom against Benjamin Raich, who lost the lead in the World Cup's overall standing on Saturday but has dominated slalom this season. The Austrians still consider Miller, now in fourth place, in the running for the overall title and a long-term risk. +If the top of the world is not high enough for Maier, it is still a remarkable distance from a roadside ditch two and a half years ago, when he lay with compound fractures that nearly ripped off his calf. +He says now that his first thought when he saw the damage was 'amputation' and that early on he only thought about walking. +In a new book written by his coach, Heinrich Bergmüller, Maier says that he suspected he would never ski again. 'When they took the bandages off and I saw my leg for the first time, I was close to tears,' he said. 'My calf was bigger than my thigh. I thought: 'That's supposed to fit into a ski-boot. That will never, ever happen again!' ' he told Bergmüller. +But less than a week after doctors screwed his legs back together, while bruises left him temporarily unable to feel sensation in his lower torso, he was already using a hand-crank ergometer for stamina training in his hospital bed. Walking did not take long. He was back on skis 144 days later and won his first race in Kitzbühel last year, 521 days after the crash. +At the finish Saturday, it was clear Maier was back in world-class form. And it was hard to imagine that his calves could ever be larger than his thighs. +SKIING" +False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Crystal Night: Vienna, '38 +LEAD: The day began with a thudding.

Pinked-cheeked storm troopers chatted and whistle. Chopped-up furniture flew through the window. One hummed something from 'The Merry Widow.' +'Franz! Run somewhere!' my mother said to my father. By that time we'd gone to the window facing the street. At the house entrance two storm troopers lit cigarettes for each other. Their comrades were smashing the synagogue on the floor below us, tossing out Torahs and pews. +'All right,' my father said. 'Meanwhile we get dressed.' +Meanwhile meant until they come up here. No other Jews lived in the building. It had no back door. +We met in the living room. We saw each other dressed with a normality made grotesque by the crashing of the perdition downstairs.

""I should have my hands full because Judith is the kind of player who runs down a lot of balls, but I'm really excited about this."" +The newcomer is the only member of the United States squad who, according to the captain, Billie Jean King, has been thrilled about every aspect of the team, from King's pep talks to Martina Navratilova's tips on singles to ""the two little American flags embroidered on her skirt."" Said King: ""I selected Amy not just because she's our third-highest ranked player behind Lindsay and Mary Joe Fernandez. She's a great team player, and I felt she deserved a chance."" +That's why Frazier and not Navratilova, who will content herself with a doubles role alongside Gigi Fernandez, was King's instant choice for the vacant spot. +""To tell the truth, I felt a little funny not naming Martina as our No. 1 singles player,"" King said. ""I was a little worried when I told her I didn't think she earned or deserved to play singles as much as the other girls did. But she took it really well; she said she never expected to play singles and felt lucky to be on the team at all."" +In Saturday's second singles match, 12th-ranked Mary Joe Fernandez will tackle a surprise second-stringer in 118th-ranked Barbara Schett.

This might avoid the sort of conflict that arose over the Pope's June audience with President Waldheim of Austria, who served in a German Army unit in World War II that has been implicated in the deportations of Jews in Greece. +Although the public declaration tonight emphasized the amiable atmosphere, Catholics and Jews who took part in today's meeting said there were some sharp exchanges. +When the Jewish leaders expressed their dismay at the Pope's decision to meet with Mr. Waldheim - who has said he had nothing to do with persecution of Jews during the war - they were told, according to participants: +'If the Pope said absolutely no, then the highest moral authority of the church would be saying to Waldheim you are indeed guilty of what you are accused of, and the Pope could not have done so. He didn't have the evidence.' +The Jewish spokesmen argued that by meeting with him, the Pope was declaring Mr. Waldheim innocent. +'We discussed how our perceptions can differ over the same events,' said Dr. Eugene Fisher, the executive secretary for Catholic-Jewish relations of the National Conference of Catholic Bishops. Jewish Body's Advertisement +At another point, several participants said, one of the American Catholics vigorously protested an advertisement run by the American Jewish Congress condemning the granting of the Waldheim audience. According to participants, Dr. Fisher suggested the advertisement appeared to revive the charge in Rolf Hochuth's play 'The Deputy,' that Pope Pius XII, for purely political and personal reasons, did not speak out about the Holocaust. +Participants said that Henry Siegman, the executive director of the American Jewish Congress, explained that the advertisement was merely stating that Pope Pius XII did not directly condemn the persecution and execution of Jews, without attributing any motives to him. +Catholic officials have said that Pius did not condemn the deportations and roundups of Jews because of fear that such statements would imperil Jews hiding in Catholic institutions. Prompted by Waldheim Outcry +This week's meetings at the Vatican were arranged after an outcry by Jewish spokesmen at the Waldheim audience and warnings by some Jewish organizations that they might not attend a largely ceremonial meeting Sept. 11 with the Pope in Miami, an early event in John Paul's visit to the United States. They sought a substantive discussion of issues that have been festering for many years, and by many accounts, today's meeting was that. +'It was a rewarding meeting,' said Rabbi Henry Waxman, the president of the International Jewish Committee for Interreligious Consultations. 'All the issues were discussed quite fully. We spoke in an atmosphere of amity. There were no confrontations.' 'It was very positive,' said Bishop William Keeler of Harrisburg, Pa., the chairman of the American Bishops Committee on Ecumenical and Interreligious Affairs. Ecumenical Lunch Break +The 18 officials met around a horseshoe table at the offices of Johannes Cardinal Willebrands, president of the Vatican's Commission for Religious Relations with Judaism. They began at 9:30 in the morning and finished at 6:30 P.M. At midday they broke for a kosher lunch of a beef, beans and eggplant goulash at the Hotel Columbus across the street. +The ecumenical stirrings behind the meeting were symbolized in the plates, which bore the cross of the Knights of the Holy Sepulcher but had been rendered kosher beforehand by a Roman Jewish caterer. +Four Jewish officials made presentations about each of the four agenda items: the Holocaust, diplomatic relations between the Vatican and Israel, the state of Jewish-Catholic relations, and anti-Semitism. +While participants were reluctant to provide details of the exchanges, drafts of statements made by three of the presenters were made available to The New York Times. +One, by Rabbi Alexander M. Schindler, president of the Union of American Hebrew Congregations, said that Jews were 'pained and puzzled' by a number of homilies offered by John Paul II in which 'the charge of Jewish responsibility for the death of Christ is revived, Jews are rebuked for their continuing rejection of Christianity's fundamental premise, and the validity of Judaism as a living faith is brought into question.' +Dr. Fisher replied that the Pope, in the criticized homilies, was essentially paraphrasing the Gospel. Jews must remember, he said, that such gospel passages have been given new interpretations since Vatican II, cautioning believers not to represent Jews as rejected by God. +In the working paper on the Holocaust, Rabbi Marc H. Tanenbaum, the director of international relations for the American Jewish Committee, said the Waldheim audience was the 'capstone' of 'revisionist tendencies' in the Roman Catholic Church that 'minimize or obscure Jewish martyrdom.' These included the erection of Catholic churches and convents at Nazi concentration camps. +But Rabbi Tanenbaum said after the meeting that he had admitted he was wrong in accusing the Pope of excluding Jews as victims during his visit to the Majdanek concentration camp last May. In fact, Rabbi Tanenbaum said, the Pope did not mention any nationalities; the rabbi blamed erroneous news reports for his mistake. The Vatican and Israel +On Israel, Seymour Reich, president of B'nai B'rith International, said that the Vatican's failure to extend full diplomatic recognition 'is perceived by Jews as a refusal by the Catholic Church to acknowledge the essence of their identity.' +According to one participant, Vatican leaders responded that they were reluctant to extend such recognition to Israel until greater efforts were made to solve the problems of uprooted Palestinians. They also asserted that they were afraid that recognition would bring reprisals against Christians living in Arab lands. +The other Jewish officials present today were Rabbi Leon Klenicki, director of interfaith affairs for the Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith; Rabbi Gilbert Klaperman, president of the Synagogue Council of America; Dr. Jeffrey Wigoder of the Israel Interfaith Committee, and Dr. Gerhardt Reigner, co-chairman of the governing board of the World Jewish Congress. +In addition to Cardinal Willebrands, Bishop Keeler, and Dr. Fisher, the Catholic officials included the Rev. Pierre Duprey, vice president of the Vatican Commission for Religious Relations with Judaism; the Rev. Pier Francesco Fumagalli, secretary of the commission; Msgr. Luigi Gatti, of the Council for Public Affairs of the Church, the Vatican foreign ministry; Archbishop Jorge M. Mejia, vice president of the Pontifical Commission for Justice and Peace; and Msgr.

Altmann, and Justice John Paul Stevens indicated in his majority opinion that important defenses remain available to Austria as the case proceeds to the next phase. +While Austria has returned $1 million worth of art to the family of the collector, Ferdinand Bloch-Bauer, including drawings by Klimt, it maintains that the Bloch-Bauers intended to bequeath the six disputed paintings, now worth over $100 million, to the state museum. Therefore, Austria argues, the paintings are its legitimate property today despite having been illegitimately expropriated by the Nazis after the family fled Vienna in 1938. +The issue for the Supreme Court was jurisdictional: whether the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act, a law passed in 1976 to open the federal courts to specific categories of cases against foreign governments, applies to conduct that predated the law's enactment. By a vote of 6 to 3, the court's answer was yes. The decision affirmed a 2002 ruling by the federal appeals court in San Francisco, although in reaching that outcome, the Supreme Court applied a different legal analysis. +In affirming the retroactive applicability of the 1976 law, the decision may open the door to additional World War II-era lawsuits, but the category of cases the decision will actually assist is likely to be small. Claims against Germany and Japan, for example, were addressed by the treaties that ended the war and in the view of many legal experts cannot be pursued in private lawsuits. +The case the court decided Monday has attained high visibility as one of a handful concerning art looted by the Nazis that has made progress through the courts. Tens of thousands of important works stolen from Jews throughout Europe are still missing, and resolution of the claims has been slow for a variety of reasons. +The connection between the Bloch-Bauer family and the art at issue in this case is stunningly apparent: two of the paintings are portraits of Adele Bloch-Bauer, Ferdinand's wife and Ms. Altmann's aunt. Mrs. Bloch-Bauer died in 1925, leaving a will in which she asked her husband at his own death to leave the paintings to the Austrian Gallery. +However, the works belonged not to her but to her husband. By the time he fled Vienna in 1938, he had made no legal arrangements to donate the paintings to the government or its museum. When he died in Switzerland in 1945, the paintings remained in his estate although they were no longer in his hands. Ms. Altmann, who also escaped Austria and has lived in California since 1942, is his only surviving heir. +After the war, the family made several efforts to retrieve the paintings. The current effort began in 1998, after a newspaper report based on the museum's records indicated that the Austrian government was aware that the Bloch-Bauers had not donated the paintings. Ms. Altmann turned to the federal courts when she learned that under Austrian court rules, she would have to pay $350,000 in court costs in order to bring her lawsuit there. +Retroactivity has been a vexing issue for the Supreme Court, which has developed a set of criteria for deciding when it is reasonable to apply a new law to past conduct. In opposing the lawsuit, Austria argued that the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act could not provide jurisdiction and, further, that if the law did apply in a general sense, the specific section that Ms. Altmann invoked did not apply to her case. +The lower federal courts found in Ms. Altmann's favor, both on the retroactivity question and on the specific issue of the applicability of a section that permits suits for expropriation of property in violation of international law. In accepting the appeal, Republic of Austria v. Altmann, No.03-13, the Supreme Court agreed to decide only the retroactivity issue. It let stand the ruling on the specific section, meaning that the lawsuit can now go forward in Federal District Court in Los Angeles. +In his majority opinion, Justice Stevens cautioned that the ruling was narrow and that Austria could still defend itself on various diplomatic grounds. The United States government opposed the lawsuit, following a longstanding policy of preferring to keep such issues in the realm of diplomacy rather than federal court. Justice Stevens said that as the case proceeds, the government's views on the particular issues were entitled to deference. +The majority said that applying the law retroactively was 'most consistent with two of the act's principal purposes,' namely clarity, in handling claims of foreign immunity and 'eliminating political participation in the resolution of such claims.' Congress passed the law in part to relieve the executive branch of having to take a position in politically sensitive cases, Justice Stevens noted. +Justices Sandra Day O'Connor, Antonin Scalia, David H. Souter, Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Stephen G. Breyer joined the opinion. Justice Anthony M. Kennedy dissented in an opinion that Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist and Justice Clarence Thomas also signed. He said the decision would 'weaken the reasoning and diminish the force of the rule against the retroactivity of statutes, a rule of fairness based on respect for expectations.' +In a separate development on Monday, the court removed a legal obstacle for the Bush administration to put into effect a long-delayed policy of letting Mexican long-haul trucks serve United States markets. +For more than 20 years, Mexican trucks have been limited to a 20-mile-wide zone along the border under a policy that in Mexico's view violated the North American Free Trade Agreement. An international arbitration panel agreed with Mexico in 2001, but the new policy has been dogged by environmental concerns. The United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit ruled last year that the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, the agency within the Department of Transportation charged with issuing rules for the new policy, had not adequately assessed the impact on air quality of permitting Mexican long-haul trucks both to idle at the border while being inspected and to drive the interstate highway system while serving their new markets. +The Supreme Court unanimously overturned that decision on Monday in an opinion by Justice Thomas. He said that because the agency had no policy-making role, but only the limited task of proposing regulations, it was not legally obliged to conduct a full environmental review. +The administration said it would immediately begin to process applications from Mexican truck companies. The outcome may not be popular in the border states that are still trying to meet targets under the Clean Air Act. California and eight other states filed a brief opposing the new policy, which Attorney General Bill Lockyer of California described Monday as an 'environmental blow.'" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Austrians Assert Downhill Dominance +At the world championships a year ago in St. Anton, Austria, the American Daron Rahlves silenced a mountainside of clanging cowbells and cheering hometown fans with a stunning victory over the famed Austrian skiers in the super-G competition. Neither Hermann Maier nor his noted Austrian teammates, Stephan Eberharter and Fritz Strobl, could outrace the risk-taking Rahlves, who for the next 12 months was promoted as the logical American candidate to halt years of Austrian dominance at the Winter Olympics. +Today's Olympic downhill was only the first of 10 Alpine events at the Salt Lake Games, but the Austrians used it to give Rahlves and his American teammates a little payback. With smooth, clean turns through the technically challenging Grizzly course at the Snowbasin Ski Area and an attacking line that was aggressive but not foolhardy, Strobl won the gold medal in a mild upset over Eberharter, who was third. Strobl, a 29-year-old police officer, became the sixth Austrian to win the Olympic downhill since it was introduced in 1948. The Austrians have now won 16 of the 46 downhill Olympic medals awarded. +Norway's Lasse Kjus was the silver medalist, repeating his finish from the 1998 Nagano Olympics. Rahlves charged brazenly from the start house, but his eagerness produced a heedless decision at the precipice of the Grizzly course's first major challenge and most treacherous spot. At the lip of the Flintlock jump, Rahlves took a chancy line and pressed his skis with too much speed, a tactic that vaulted him a spectacular 160 feet down the mountain. It was the day's most majestic jump, but by the time Rahlves landed, he was hopelessly out of position for the next turn and out of contention in the race. +Losing roughly a second in that section of the course to Strobl, Rahlves finished 16th. +'I came into Flintlock too strong,' Rahlves said. 'Right away, I was trying to get back down on the ground, but it was too late.' +Rahlves finished nearly two seconds behind Strobl, whose winning time was 1 minute 39.13 seconds. Kjus's time was 1:39.35 and Eberharter was 0.06 of a second behind Kjus. +Strobl's victory was unexpected because Eberharter had been the dominant skier during this season's World Cup, winning the overall downhill title with five victories. But Strobl came to today's event ranked second, and tellingly, he had two career victories at Kitzbühel, the world's most feared downhill course. +Since the Grizzly course had been lauded as a worthy rival of Kitzbühel, Strobl's experience with high speeds -- skiers averaged about 70 miles an hour today -- and tight turns figured to come in handy. Afterward, however, Strobl said the Grizzly course was not in Kitzbühel's class. +'You can hardly compare it,' he said. +Others, however, found today's course frightening. The top American finisher, Marco Sullivan, a 21-year-old first-time Olympian who finished ninth, said going any faster would have meant risking death. +Told of Sullivan's comments, Strobl said with a smirk, 'If you want to win, you have to risk something.' +Under sunny skies with no wind, Eberharter was the ninth skier to challenge the course, and though he twice reached 85 m.p.h., he skied with a calm upper body and strayed infrequently from his intended line. It was clear the Austrian team favored a less chancy approach to Grizzly's three major jumps as Eberharter, Strobl and their teammate Christian Greber, who finished sixth, took relatively little air on their jumps. It proved to be faster. +But Eberharter made two small mistakes in the Grizzly midsection and in the final steep descent, the last in full view of a crowd of 25,000. +'It was not my best day, but I have other days yet,' Eberharter said. +Strobl, who later said he did not believe he had skied an aggressive race, judged the angle of his turns through the 38 gates of the 1.9-mile course just slightly better than anyone else. While the downhill often produces hair-raising, daredevil moments for the eventual victor, Strobl's run relied more on high-speed, controlled precision. No part of his effort stood out. He was consistent throughout. +Of the medal winners, Kjus had the most entertaining run, his skis skittering at times in bumpy turns. 'I am older,' said Kjus, 32. 'I have to take chances.' +Although the Grizzly course clearly put the majority of the field of 53 through a tortuous challenge, there were no crashes, which may have been because of good visibility and the clear recent weather that allowed organizers to make the course fast but generally even. +One skier, Paul Joyce-Schwarzacher of Ireland, fell but got up quickly to finish last. Another, Pierre-Emmanuel Dalcin of France, lost one ski yards from the finish but managed to charge through the gate for 11th place. +The Americans were disappointed by Rahlves's position but nonetheless encouraged by Sullivan's apparent breakthrough. Sullivan is a World Cup rookie and was skiing as a junior two years ago. Jakub Fiala was 27th and Scott Macartney was 29th. +'We have many other races yet,' Rahlves said. 'I'll have to lick my wounds for a few hours, but the Olympics are far from over at this point.' +The Austrians were pleased to have restored what they saw as a certain proper order to the skiing world. +'Skiing is the national sport, so there was a lot of pressure competing at home,' Strobl said when asked about last year's world championships. 'Maybe there was less here. But it will be nice to bring these two medals home.

Walchhofer, the top-ranked downhill skier in the world last season, left a day early to spend time with his family. In May he became the father of twins, Mathias and Patrick. +'I was missing the fun,' said Walchhofer, who owns a hotel in Altenmarkt, Austria. +Walchhofer completed the undulating track here in 2 minutes 0.15 seconds. His countrymen Fritz Strobl and Hans Grugger were 0.52 and 0.95 seconds behind. For their efforts, local organizers awarded them 99-pound wheels of Beaufort cheese. +Hermann Maier finished ninth, and was only the fifth-fastest Austrian. Unless he improves soon, he may lose out in the fight within his team for start positions at the Olympic downhill in February. +An Olympic downhill gold medal is one of the few trophies in the sport that Maier has yet to win, but he may not even qualify for the Games. He was fourth and 19th in the season's previous downhills. +But Maier will have five more World Cup downhills to prove his mettle. 'I think with Hermann it will just click and he is back,' Walchhofer said. +Miller and Rahlves will not visit home soil again until after the World Cup season ends in March. So it was with great relief that the two settled into the motor homes that were waiting for them this week in Val d'Isère, a small ski town 50 miles up a narrow valley from Albertville, the host city for the 1992 Winter Olympics. +The only skiers on the Alpine World Cup circuit who forgo central Europe's extravagant resort hotels, Rahlves and Miller opt to travel in customized vehicles. +Miller caused a stir in 2003 when he first started camping, as the European news media called it. He hired a childhood friend to drive his 26-foot vehicle up snowy switchbacks to the World Cup's staging areas. +Although such accommodations are normal in auto racing or the music business, European ski fans find endless novelty in the American convoy. At many places, groups of parents and children gather on the morning of the race to watch Miller and Rahlves emerge from their vehicles, which are usually parked alongside television production trucks. +A much discussed feature of Miller's motor home is a giant flat-screen television, on which he plays video games -- sometimes between legs of a race. +This year, Miller said, the top feature of his motor home is a set of custom foam pillows from his aunt. +'I hate waking up and having a sore ear from having it mussed up in the pillow the wrong way,' he said. +WINTER SPORTS" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Twilight Tales, Upbeat and Otherwise +No scriptwriters are required when it comes to sports. The true stories are routinely dramatic and sensationalist enough. There is no need to jazz them up for wider consumption -- from figure skating's Russian mafia connections, to Lance Armstrong's comeback from cancer, to Andre Agassi's and Steffi Graf's beyond-the-baseline romance to a laundry list of other fiction-defeating plots and subplots. +There were two more examples just this week: one uplifting, one profoundly disturbing, both thoroughly unexpected. +Seventeen months ago, Hermann Maier, the world's greatest skier, was lying in the grass on the side of an Austrian road after a motorcycle accident, staring at his crushed, bleeding right leg in horror and pleading with those gathered around him to save it. But even on this unlucky summer evening, Maier would experience some good fortune: he had crashed about 200 yards from a medical clinic staffed by doctors who had known him for years. Within minutes they were at his side. Within two hours, he was on the operating table in Salzburg, fighting successfully for his life and limb during seven hours of surgery. +Saving his career took quite a bit longer, and though Maier looked like a beaten man as he limped around Flachau with dark circles under his eyes when I visited him in October 2001, he looked every bit the champion again on Monday when he won a super giant slalom race in Kitzbühel. +Elite skiing is replete with comeback tales, but Maier's return is exceptional. What filters through most is that Maier is a talented, driven, stubborn man. +Of course, stubbornness in sports can be a handicap as well as a strength. Tim Montgomery and Marion Jones, the world's fastest man and woman, could presumably have their pick of any track coach in the world with the 2004 Summer Olympics looming. So whom have they chosen to train with this off-season after unsentimentally severing ties with Trevor Graham? Their choice appears to be Charlie Francis, the Canadian who was the brains behind Ben Johnson's steroid-driven dash to tainted medals and records in the 1980's. +It sounds like a poor joke; a vicious rumor. Why, with the continuing concern about doping in track and field, would two of its biggest stars choose to risk guilt by association? An article on Tuesday in L'Equipe, the French sports daily, was headlined 'Les liaisons dangereuses' and detailed a reporter's visit to York University in Toronto, where he had a close encounter with Montgomery, Jones and Francis at a soft-drink vending machine between training sessions. +Montgomery and Jones have yet to comment publicly on the connection with Francis. What is clear is that Graham is no longer coaching them, despite the fact that Montgomery established a world record of 9.78 seconds last September and that Jones, the Olympic champion at 100 and 200 meters, had an undefeated season last year. +In December, Jones announced that she had hired Derek Hansen, a former Canadian long jumper, as her coach. That was surprising but not illogical, considering that she wants to win the Olympic long jump in Athens and her technique remains far from ideal. Jones made no mention of Francis in her announcement, but she and Montgomery have since been seen training with Hansen and Francis. +The International Association of Athletics Federations, track's governing body, is understandably concerned and wants a clarification from Jones and Montgomery about their work with Francis. Francis was banned for life from coaching Canadian athletes in 1990 after a two-year investigation into doping in the wake of Johnson's positive drug test at the 1988 Summer Olympics. American track officials have also expressed concerns to Jones and Montgomery, and the organizers of track's most prestigious one-day meets, the Golden League, are mulling over the possibility of keeping Jones and Montgomery out of their events. +With track and field struggling to maintain its appeal to youth and sponsors, the last thing it needs is a continuing story that calls into question its stars' ethics. There is nothing illegal about working with Francis. No national federation but Canada has banned him, and it has, after all, been 15 years since Johnson was caught after winning the Olympic 100 meters in Seoul. +And on Friday, I.A.A.F. officials seemed to take a conciliatory stance toward the controversial coach, saying they would back full reinstatement of Francis if he issues a statement against the use of performance-enhancing drugs. Later Friday, Francis released a statement defending the reputations of the American sprinters and stating he no longer is involved with performance-enhancing drugs. +'Tim and Marion have proven to me that athletic performances at the very highest level can be achieved without resort to performance-enhancing drugs,' Francis said. +When Jones and Montgomery do comment, they might argue that Francis deserves a second chance. They could also argue that they are not the only athletes working with compromised mentors. Dwain Chambers, Britain's top sprinter, is training on occasion with Dennis Mitchell, the former American star who served a two-year ban for steroids at the end of his career. +Jones and Montgomery would have two good points. But Francis, fairly or unfairly, is a symbolic figure in the sport's tarnished past, and he has hardly struck a repentant tone over the years, arguing as recently as 2000 that the quandary confronting today's athletes remained: break the rules or lose. +Francis could say that he, at least, is no hypocrite, but whether he is right or wrong, Jones and Montgomery have a responsibility to address and allay the concerns of the sport's remaining fans. +And they are hardly doing so by training under Francis's watch. +BackTalk" +False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Judge Denies Bail to Woman Extradited on Drug Charges +LEAD: A woman extradited from Austria will remain in jail without bond to face charges that she operated an international marijuana-smuggling ring, a Federal district judge has ruled. +A woman extradited from Austria will remain in jail without bond to face charges that she operated an international marijuana-smuggling ring, a Federal district judge has ruled. +The 58-year-old woman, Linda L.

'Immature,' as Hickersberger said. +By 1985, he was Austria's leading scorer, but a year later, the national team failed to advance from the World Cup qualifying rounds. +Over the next two seasons, Polster's renown as a scorer developed, as he finished the 1987 season with 39 goals and then signed to play for Torino's first division team in the Italian league. After he scored nine goals, a creditable performance for his first season away from home, Polster's contract was transferred to Seville for $2 million, and his efficiency improved significantly. +But at the same time, he found that his proclivities were becoming a curse. +'People began to get angry,' he said today, standing on the steps of the villa. 'They were angry I was earning money outside Austria and they started thinking that I should score three or four goals every game.' +The public's discontent reached its height during the final stages of Austria's World Cup qualifying matches, as Polster failed to score in a 0-0 draw with the Soviet Union and a 3-0 loss to Turkey. As he took the field in Vienna for the final qualifying match, when the Austrians needed a victory to advance, he was showered with boos and whistles. He was stunned. +The final score: Austria 3, East Germany 0. Polster scored all three goals. +Leaving the field, Polster was showered again, but with waves of wild adulation and appreciation." +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"As New Alpine Season Begins, Miller Makes Himself Heard Again +The first race of the World Cup ski season began Saturday with a commemoration for nine Germans, six young racers and their coaches, who died here in a chairlift accident last month. +But a moment of silence before the first racer kicked out of the starting gate seemed more like the ski racing community steeling itself for the arrival of Bode Miller, a favorite to win Sunday's men's race. +On Thursday night, in a conversation with several reporters, Miller, 28, advocated the liberalization of anti-doping rules, calling the enforcement effort hypocritical, ineffective and invasive. +'I think people should be able to do what they want to do,' said Miller, the reigning World Cup champion. +'There's all kinds of things that just aren't equal,' he said, ridiculing the idea of a level playing field. 'That's the whole point of sports. One guy wins and one guy loses. If you want to make it equal, then make everything legal.' +He also said that under some conditions, steroids and EPO may be beneficial to an athlete's health. +Gian Franco Kasper, president of the international ski federation, called Miller's comments 'completely ridiculous,' and said Miller might have invited testing upon himself. +Miller has said controversial things before, but his coaches said he may have never looked back in regret, let alone publicly apologized. 'It is part of his charm,' said Fabio Fontina, a representative of Miller's primary sponsor, Barilla pasta. +This is the fifth consecutive season that the Alpine World Cup began here at 10,000 feet above sea level. Seventy-seven women carved their way down this steep track Saturday in the giant slalom, swinging back and forth in metronomic precision, and of these, Tina Maze of Slovenia was the fastest. +Maze had a two-run time of 2 minutes 24.59 seconds, 0.34 of a second faster than Janica Kostelic of Croatia, the 23-year-old who had her 11th knee operation last summer. Anja Paerson of Sweden, the reigning overall champion, was a tenth of a second behind, in third. +'I'm happy to beat Anja and Janica,' Maze said. 'They are really good skiers.' +Paerson denounced Miller's comments about doping. 'It's totally stupid to say that,' she said Friday. +Last summer, Miller and one of his primary rivals, Hermann Maier, trained in the Southern Hemisphere, in Chile and New Zealand. +They will begin their showdown Sunday. Miller has won this race the past two years. He won the overall World Cup title last season, becoming the first American to do so in 22 years. He is a contender for a gold medal in every skiing discipline at the Olympic Winter Games in February in Turin, Italy. +The premier circuit of Alpine ski racing, the World Cup consists of some 76 races, mostly in central Europe.

A few journalists even posed with them and sent the pictures home. +Then again, Miller has never had much respect for his medals, either. +When these championships started Jan. 29, Miller amused ski fans young and old by admitting that he had used the gold medal he won at the 2003 world championships as a counterweight for a toilet seat that kept falling down. +'I just don't know where it went after that,' he said with a grin. +Janica Kostelic of Croatia, who won three world titles here, said she admired Miller's philosophy -- that the satisfaction of a perfect run is worth more than the tangible reward. But even she was shocked by Miller's casual attitude toward his medals. 'I don't lose my medals or use them as a toilet-something,' she said. +Of the 33 medals available at these championships, 11 went to Austria. It won its final medal, a silver, on Sunday, in the inaugural team event, an experimental cross-discipline race involving men and women. Germany won the gold and France finished third, a point ahead of the United States. +Germany and France would have gone home empty-handed if not for Sunday's competition. +'Sometimes it actually is a help to have such a poor championships,' said Sarah Lewis, the secretary general of the International Ski Federation, when asked how France would deal with its performance here. 'Being saved by a bronze medal based on one-hundredth makes you go back and say, 'How can we achieve our potential?'' +Success in Alpine skiing is often cyclical. Ten years ago, ski racing meant nothing in Croatia; since Kostelic won four medals in 2002, it has become a national sport. +The United States is on an upswing, too, winning six medals at these championships: two gold by Miller, two bronze by Julia Mancuso, and a silver and bronze by Daron Rahlves. Barring injury, they should hit their career climax next year at the Olympics in Turin, Italy. Lindsey Kildow, considered the next Picabo Street, did not make the podium here. +'The administration tries to peak for the big events, and they shot for 2002 in Salt Lake,' says Street, who retired after those Olympics, just as the renaissance was beginning. 'Now the overflow of that effort is starting to show. You're starting to see so many young American girls stack the deck. It's fun to see them starting to whomp up on the Europeans.' +Notably, Switzerland did not win a medal here, even though Alpine skiing is a national sport and the International Ski Federation, or F.I.S., is based there. +It was Miller and Benjamin Raich of Austria who emerged at the top of the sport in these championships. Raich won four individual medals, with two gold, a silver and a bronze, and was part of the Austrian team that won silver Sunday. +Raich seemed oblivious to any rivalry with Miller. 'The Olympics are not in my mind now,' he said. 'I know now that it can be possible, but that it's not easy.

And tonight, in the same sort of slow, tactical race that cost him a gold medal in Barcelona, the Algerian won with relative ease. +Morceli has dominated the metric mile throughout the 1990's, and tonight he dominated the Olympic field, winning the gold medal in a time of 3 minutes 35.78 seconds. Fermin Cacho of Spain won the silver in 3:36.40 and Stephen Kipkorir of Kenya won the bronze in 3:36.72. +'Of course, I have been thinking about the Olympics for the last four years,' Morceli said. +In the women's 1,500, Svetlana Masterkova of Russia won her second middle-distance gold medal, taking the lead from Kelly Holmes of Britain with 200 meters remaining and sprinting home. +Masterkova upset the favorites Maria Mutola and Ana Quirot to win the 800, but there was no clear favorite in this race in the absences of the defending world and Olympic champion Hassiba Boulmerka of Algeria and Ireland's Sonia O'Sullivan, who both failed to reach the final. +Romania's Gabriela Szabo won the silver behind Masterkova; Austria's Theresia Kiesl won the bronze. Masterkova became the second woman to double in the 800 and 1,500 at the Olympics. Another Russian, Tatyana Kazankina, then running for the Soviet Union, was the first, in 1976. +Morceli focused entirely on the 1,500, and he might have had a more difficult time if not for a collision with Hicham El Guerroudj of Morocco, one of the few runners given a chance to pull off an upset. It happened with one lap to go. Morceli had taken the lead 300 meters earlier, blowing past the trio of Kenyans who had unsuccessfully attempted to box him in during the first two laps. +El Guerroudj, who had broken the 3:30 barrier earlier this season, moved into position just behind Morceli. He turned out be too close, because his spikes soon had a close encounter with Morceli's right ankle. El Guerroudj went down in a heap, and Cacho was forced to hurdle his prone body, losing momentum in the process. Morceli glanced back just for a moment, and whether he knew it or not, the gold medal was firmly in his grasp. Cacho, the defending Olympic champion, could never close the gap on one of the most relentless finishers in track history. +The time was unspectacular: well off Morceli's world record of 3:27.37 and well off his semifinal time of 3:32.88. But unlike most of Morceli's races, this race was not about records, and as Morceli dabbed at the blood dripping down into his shoe while holding the Algerian flag, he had accomplished his goal: he had wiped out some bad memories. El Guerroudj, who left the track in tears after finishing 12th, will have some of his own to erase in the year 2000. +'In major championships, there is always pushing, but that is quite normal,' Morceli said. +Morceli was the world's dominant 1,500-meter runner heading into the last Olympics, too. But a hip injury slowed his training in the months leading up to Barcelona. He flirted with not competing and then got boxed in during a tactical race and finished a not-so-distant seventh as the local hero Cacho galloped off with the gold and the acclaim. +Morceli vowed it would not happen again, and he kept his word. Over the next four years, he would lose only one race, an 800-meter event in Cologne, Germany, in 1993. At every other distance, he was untouchable. His long-stated goal is to hold every world record between 800 meters and 5,000 meters. +As of today, he holds the world marks in the mile, the 1,500 and in two events that are not on the Olympic program: the 2,000 and the 3,000.

Ligety posted a good time in his first run but was disqualified because he did not get his skis around one gate. Barely out of the start house on his first run, Miller also straddled a gate and did not finish. +The other two Americans, James Cochran and Chip Knight, finished 12th and 18th. The United States men and women combined for two Alpine medals at these Games -- Ligety took a gold in the combined, and Julia Mancuso won the giant slalom. +'We came in here with a much higher goal than that,' said Jesse Hunt, the director of the United States Alpine team. 'We came into this capable of getting a medal in every discipline. We didn't hit our goal, and that's upsetting.' +Raich, Herbst and Schönfelder mastered a hill that gave many skiers problems Saturday. In the two runs combined, skiers failed to finish 41 times. Five skiers were disqualified, and several crashed. +Perhaps the most breathtaking spill of the day was by the first skier, Giorgio Rocca of Italy, who was a favorite. Less than halfway down, Rocca's skis crossed and he tumbled to the snow, sending the flag-waving Italian fans into a chilled silence. +Several skiers said the course was faster than usual and the surface inconsistent. The temperature rose before the race, softening parts of the ice and creating bumps, Hunt said. +Saturday night was the third time in Olympic history that the Austrians swept the medals in an Alpine event. These Games have helped solidify Raich's reputation for all-around greatness. Should Raich, who turns 28 on Tuesday, continue to shine, he could rival the legendary Hermann Maier. +What separated Raich from other skiers, Schönfelder said, was his patience and dedication. Earlier in the Games, Raich was closing in on a gold medal in the combined when he skied off the course. That did not stop him from blowing away the competition in the final two Alpine events. +'For me, the important thing is, when you make bad races, or when you go out, like in the combined, don't think too much to this race,' said Raich, who also won the giant slalom. 'Think to the future. That was always my goal, and I think that is my secret.' +2006 OLYMPIC WINTER GAMES -- ALPINE SKIING: MEN'S SLALOM" +False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"More Curious Material Found in Skiing's Closet +WE always get these wonderful explanations from Olympic athletes about the various drugs found coursing around in their bodies. I can hardly wait for the explanation of the blood supplies left behind by the Austrian Nordic skiing team in a house in Utah. +Athletes and the officials who enable them are always so glib with their denials. For example, when Larisa Lazutina of Russia came up with a heightened level of red blood cells at the Winter Games, team officials said it was because she was menstruating. That excuse was not available for Johann Muehlegg, a German who brought dishonor to his new country, Spain. Anyway, they were both sent packing, along with another Russian, Olga Danilova. +The three disgraced athletes had better look in their trophy chests to see what happened to the three gold medals and three silvers they lugged out of Salt Lake City. +'They may think they have won gold medals,' Richard Pound, the Olympic drug watchdog, pronounced the other day. 'But they are lead.' +The six medals constituted quite a haul by skiers who were subsequently documented as cheaters, taking a drug designed for anemia to increase their red blood cell count for endurance. And the merry dance goes on. +On Wednesday workers discovered a cache of blood-transfusion equipment in a house that had been rented by the Austrian Nordic team. Not only were the Austrians slobs for not cleaning up, but they were also very likely cheats. An Austrian official said that it was all a big mistake, that the equipment, including blood packets, was merely a part of normal health-care material. +'Whatever happened to the Hippocratic oath?' Pound said yesterday from his office in Montreal. 'Whatever happened to 'Do no harm'?' +Pound called for the Austrians to make a full disclosure and said, 'To deny it is nonsense.' +Pound is the chairman of the World Anti-Doping Agency, which is becoming a force against cheating. A week ago, he was hopefully talking up an almost totally drug-free Olympics, but the bust of three medal winners and the finding of blood-packing material in the Austrians' house seem to be taking us back to familiar territory. +The multiple bust in the closing hours of the Games was played down because we all -- myself included -- preferred to enjoy the Sarah Hughes skate and the Canada-United States hockey game. Catching three prominent athletes who had already won gold medals, however, was like catching three Ben Johnsons in Seoul in 1988. +Unfortunately, the way the rules work, anything they won before they were busted remains theirs. Pound said earlier that blood and urine samples should be re-examined to see if tests had disclosed the presence of the blood-enhancing drug. +'This is systemic use,' Pound said. 'It did not begin on the day of the last race.' +Muehlegg had won two gold medals before a positive test cost him a third; Lazutina won two silver medals before turning back the gold she won Sunday; and Danilova did not have to return the gold and silver medals she won before testing positive on the final day. +Pound and his colleague Johann Olav Koss, the Norwegian speed skating champion from 1994, say the busts are proof the system is working. +'I get called a Pollyanna because I say that having only three, or three and a half, positives is a good sign,' Pound said. (His half-bust was the Russian skier Natalya Baranova-Masolkina, who was turned away from Utah after a positive test.) +Koss, who won gold medals with marvelous endurance and always tested clean, is a member of the International Olympic Committee and an activist who spreads sporting equipment and expertise to underprivileged nations. +'I don't think athletes should keep their medals, absolutely not,' Koss, who now lives in Toronto, said. +At the Salt Lake Games, Pound and Koss set up an office in the athletes' village and recruited athletes to sign up for a passport that contained their drug-testing history. They said 512 athletes signed up, putting their records in a computer and on an actual passport, which they can present at future events. +'This is a proactive first step,' said Pound, a former Olympic swimmer for Canada who was recently defeated for the presidency of the I.O.C. but accepted the leadership of the anti-doping agency, which is supported by government and I.O.C. money. He thinks the passport will ultimately drive a wedge between the vast majority of athletes who he says do not cheat and the handful who do. +Call me a cynical sportswriter who has covered far too many Olympics, but I tend not to believe any athlete who says he or she does not cheat. However, I do believe lab reports, which have been upgraded in the past decade to catch illegal stimulants, body-building steroids and also blood-packing. +Now, to the shock of the two Russians and Muehlegg, the labs caught the presence of darbepoetin, which is similar to the hormone erythropoietin (EPO), which produces red blood cells. One product on the market, Aranesp, is not on the I.O.C.'s list of banned substances by name, but the general type of drug is covered by a phrase 'and related substances.' +The word was out that testing for darbepoetin would not be sophisticated for another 12 to 18 months, 'but it was kind of a trap,' Koss said. +'The Russians said, 'You weren't supposed to be testing for this,' ' Koss added with some glee. +Koss is calling for national federations to investigate medals that were won dishonestly. He said: 'Spain and Russia could. The ski federations could ask for an investigation. This just shows low moral standards from their federation. Now they are going home with their tails between their legs.' +Koss, who does not easily criticize nations or ideologies, was annoyed by the way some Russian officials blustered about judging and testing and even threatened to go home. They were told by President Vladimir V. Putin to remain, and have been called on the carpet since returning home, despite public sentiment in their favor. +'The Russians were complaining,' Koss said. 'Now it seems they had something to hide.' +He resents what the Russians did because it rubs off on all athletes who are clean. 'The problem is, if you have a great performance, you are suspect,' he said. 'That must change.' +Austria won one silver and two bronze medals in Nordic skiing events.

Its estimated age, a rough estimate at this point, is based on the ax found at its side. The ax is of a well-known type that appears exclusively from the Early Bronze age, which in Europe started about 2000 B.C. +""It's a very important find,"" said Chris Stringer, who heads the Human Origins Project at the Museum of Natural History in London and has seen pictures of the withered corpse. ""This kind of preservation is very rare. There are some from peat bogs but those are not anywhere near this age. The British example, Lindow Man, is 2,000 years old. This is double that."" +Scientists who study glaciers say the ice that encased the man, who died hunched over on his knees on solid rock, is the oldest ever found in the Alps. +""The man surely hadn't melted out in 4,000 years or otherwise he would have disintegrated within weeks,"" said Gernot Patzelt, a professor at the Institute for Alpine Research at the University of Innsbruck, who has explored the site. ""That means that for the first time in 4,000 years, this area is ice-free. You can deduce from that that the climactic conditions now are similar to the time 4,000 years ago."" +Scientists believe that the last time the Alpine glaciers were as small as they are now was 700 years ago, when the climate was also similar to that now. What they still do not know is whether the glaciers' retreat is simply part of the earth's natural cycle of warming and cooling or whether it has been speeded by the feared greenhouse effect, the climate warming induced by a buildup of polluting gases in the earth's atmosphere. +""But the fact that this area was ice-free 4,000 years ago is proof that even without the man-made greenhouse effect, the climate was as warm as now,"" Mr. Patzelt said. +It is not yet understood why the body did not melt out during the last warm period. But the reason may lie in its location away from the sun at the bottom of a five-foot-wide, nine-foot-deep trench that runs through rock for about 150 feet and is still mostly filled with ice. +Mr. Patzelt said the man's body remained exactly where he died because the ice in the trench was trapped and was not pulled along with the glacier on the rock above. Normally the bodies of people who die on glaciers are carried along in the ice as it grows down mountains. Under pressure of the ice, the corpses are transformed into a waxy-like material. +Five more bodies of mountain climbers who died in the last 50 years have emerged from the glaciers in Austria this summer, which means that much ice has melted, said Rainer Henn, a professor of forensic medicine at the University of Innsbruck. Authenticity of Find +Archeologists who have examined the mummified body say they are convinced it is genuine. +""There's no question of its authenticity,"" said Markus Egg of the Romisch-Germanisches Zentralmuseum in Mainz, Germany, after examining the body. +Mr. Patzelt said he had examined maps going back to 1817 and all showed that the area was covered with glacier until this summer. He believes this eliminates the possibility that someone could recently have planted the body, which was found encased in ice. +Mr. Henn said that for the body to have been mummified, it must first have dried out nearly completely before being covered with snow not more than a month after death. +Archeologists say study of the man and his equipment is expected to reveal a great deal about the life of Bronze Age humans in South Central Europe. The exact age of the find will not be known until radiocarbon dating tests are made, the results of which will not be available for at least three months. Gaps in Knowledge +""We know very little about these people,"" said Konrad Spindler, the prehistorian at the University of Innsbruck who has led the early investigation. ""All we have are some bones, tools and a few remains of houses."" +The mummified body was dug out of the ice by forensic doctors who at first believed it was 500 years old. Discovered beside it were a bronze ax with a wooden shaft, a flintstone knife, flint lighter and kindling in a small pouch. Scientists examining the site a few days later discovered a leather quiver, reinforced with wood, which was filled with 14 arrows. According to X-rays of the quiver, some of the arrows have arrowheads of bone and some have wooden points, which were probably used to hunt fowl. X-rays of a small leather bag also revealed a sort of repair kit for the arrows, including replacement arrowheads made of flintstone and what is believed to be a putty that may be made of pitch. Prepared for Cold +The clothes of the man, who is estimated to have been 25 to 35 years old, have disintegrated almost completely, but it appears that they were mostly of leather and fur and that he wore leather boots with a lining of hay for warmth, a stone necklace and a birchbark case around his waist. +""He knew exactly what he would encounter, be it cold, ice or snow,"" Mr. Spindler said. +The man is also tattooed on the inside of his knee with a small cross and on his back above the kidneys with six two-inch-long straight lines lying one on top of the other. +Mr. Egg, who examined the body, believes that the man was either hunting or looking for minerals like copper, which were plentiful in the Alps. +""In the Bronze Age people came from what is now Italy and Bavaria to look for copper in the Alps and the area became more thickly settled,"" Mr. Egg said. But he said the settlements were in valleys and the man was most likely several days' hike from home. +The man has no wounds, and it is not clear why he died, though it appears from his position in the trench that he may have been seeking shelter. If he was hunting, Mr. Egg said, he would not have been alone, but weather conditions change within minutes in the Alps and he could have become lost. The area is a five-hour hike from the nearest valley but is not terribly demanding terrain. Autopsy May Be Performed +An autopsy will probably be done, Mr. Spindler said, and may reveal what the man had last eaten and his cause of death as well as information on his diet and general health. +""Also if the DNA is well-preserved, we could say how he relates to a number of genetic lines in Europe,"" Mr. Stringer said. ""If the individual has well-preserved tissue, red blood cells, we should be able to get out extensive information from that as well."" +Jean-Pierre Mohen, the director of France's National Museum of Antiquities in St. Germain-en-Laye, said the discovery might encourage more exploration in areas where glaciers are retreating. +""There is now the possibility of finding in these glaciers, which are getting smaller and smaller, things we've never even looked for before,"" Mr. Mohen said.

The weather was lovely. She went to work on the ninth floor of the Triangle Shirtwaist Company on the corner of Washington Place and Greene. Most of March 25 passed like any Saturday. Then at 4:40 p.m. a fire broke out. +Descriptions of fire necessarily slow time. A spark, a thread of smoke, the smolder, the first diffident flames that gain confidence, then swell, grow barrel-chested and broad-shouldered and decide to wreck the place. One person smells something and points. Others look and panic. +The fire started on the eighth floor, where the cutters, mostly men, worked and quickly spread to the ninth, which housed the machine operators, mostly women. The executives occupied the 10th floor. Flammable fabric was everywhere, in bolts by the walls, in scraps on the floor, hanging from the ceiling. Fed by the fabric and oiled machinery, the fire spread. There had never been a fire drill at the Triangle Shirtwaist Company. There were no sprinklers. The building, after all, was fireproof. +The girls on the ninth floor wanted to get down, directly, immediately. There were two staircases. One was locked. Soon enough, the crush of people as good as locked the other. +Women on the ninth floor pushed the elevator call button, but so did workers on the eighth. The cars rose to the eighth, filled and descended, over and over. On the ninth floor, panicked women pried open the outer elevator doors and threw themselves down the shafts. Passengers inside the cars could hear the percussive thud of bodies on top of the car, then the rattling of coins falling out of pockets and through the metal grating. +That left the windows. Surely some of the early jumpers believed they were saving themselves: they flung their bodies into blankets and jackets held taut by strangers, into fire safety nets once the fire department arrived, which ripped in half and flung their contents to the ground. Some women died trying to leap into the arms of firemen, who stood at the tops of ladders that, fully extended, reached only to the sixth floor. +People on the ground begged women not to jump. They begged as one woman waved a white handkerchief and then leapt; her flaming dress caught on a wire and she hung there till she burned free. They begged as a man helped a series of women off the ledge with courtesy, as if the air itself was an elevator car, before he kissed the last, let her fall and followed. +I do not want to die in a fire. I do not want to die so far from the earth. I am dying, and I believe I can fly. +Perhaps these women realized they could not save their lives. They knew that those who stayed inside the building would be incinerated beyond recognition. They may have thought that it would be a comfort to their families to have something to identify and then bury. In fact, the families would later beg to be allowed to walk among the bodies that had been laid out on the 26th Street pier. They went to the site. Then the morgue. Then back to the site. It was impossible to believe that a person you would know anywhere, walking blocks ahead of you, was not just gone but also unidentifiable. You must keep looking: even if her shoes are gone, if her fillings have melted to nothing, you will find her. +To survive such a disaster -- 146 people died, mostly young immigrant women -- you must be clear-headed, and you must be lucky. Rose Rosenfeld, an Austrian immigrant, was both. +Somehow she managed to make her way into the stairwell. Blind with smoke, she decided to climb up the stairs -- she was thinking, What are the executives doing on the 10th floor? -- and then to the roof, where a fireman hoisted her to the next roof and to safety. The executives had already escaped. +She walked down 10 flights of stairs and outside, in time to see people jump. She knew the world had changed. +The factory relocated within days of the fire, but Rose Rosenfeld never returned. Instead, she went to college. She took a job with the Cunard Line and then married Harry Freedman, an American she met in Vienna, and had three children. For the rest of her life, she spoke at labor rallies, to classes, to reporters about the fire. She retired at age 79, perhaps not realizing she had another 28 years to paint, study languages and root for the Lakers. At 107, she picked up Spanish, her seventh language. +She survived everyone else who survived. Only the fireproof Asch Building remains. +'I don't pretend,' she said last year of remembering the fire. 'I feel it. Still.' +THE LIVES THEY LIVED: ROSE FREEDMAN, B. 1893" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Lendl Eliminates Muster, Will Face Mecir in Final +LEAD: Ivan Lendl, closing in on a Grand Slam title he has never won, outplayed 11th-seeded Thomas Muster of Austria, 6-2, 6-4, 5-7, 7-5, in a grueling baseline duel today to reach his second Australian Open final. +Ivan Lendl, closing in on a Grand Slam title he has never won, outplayed 11th-seeded Thomas Muster of Austria, 6-2, 6-4, 5-7, 7-5, in a grueling baseline duel today to reach his second Australian Open final. +Lendl, who can regain the No. 1 ranking by winning Sunday's final, will play ninth-seeded Miloslav Mecir of Czechoslovakia, who defeated Jan Gunnarsson of Sweden, 7-5, 6-2, 6-2. +Muster, a hard-hitting left-hander playing in his first Grand Slam semifinal, tried to outstroke Lendl from the baseline on a sweltering day when temperatures soared into the high 90's and the court surface reached 130 degrees. +But Lendl, who prides himself on his stamina and fitness, refused to wilt after Muster mounted a serious challenge midway through the 3-hour-12-minute match. +After losing the first two sets, Muster fought back to win the third and had a chance to go up, 6-5, in the fourth. But he netted an easy overhead on game point and followed with a long backhand and a double-fault to lose the game. +Lendl, who lost the 1983 Australian Open final to Mats Wilander, then clinched the victory with a love service game. +'Those are the hottest conditions I've ever played under,' said Muster, who suffered nosebleeds early in the match. 'Sometimes you really couldn't move any more. I've got blisters all over my feet. I feel like jumping into ice water.' +On Thursday, the defending women's champion, Steffi Graf trounced Gabriela Sabatini of Argentina, 6-3, 6-0, to move one victory from her fifth straight Grand Slam title. +Graf will play fifth-seeded Helena Sukova of Czechoslovakia for the championship on Saturday. Sukova overcame the jitters and an errant backhand to defeat unseeded Belinda Cordwell of New Zealand, 7-6, 4-6, 6-2, in the other semifinal. +'I don't think Helena has many chances,' Sabatini said. 'Steffi is playing very well and Helena had to struggle today. I don't think it will be a problem.' +Graf has an 8-1 record against Sukova, whose only victory came in 1983 when the West German was only 14 years old. But Sukova, who lost her two previous Grand Slams finals at the 1984 Australian Open and 1986 United States Open, said she won't be intimidated. +'I have nothing to lose,' she said. 'I'll try my best and see what happens.' +What happened to Sabatini was surprising, even though the 18-year-old Argentine had lost 14 of her 16 previous matches against Graf. Most of their matches have been close. This one wasn't. +After breaking for 2-all in the first set, Graf unleashed her lethal forehand and dropped only 14 points the rest of the way. +'I wanted to win badly today and she didn't seem to be physically there,' Graf said.

She is considered a strong gold medal possibility in the Olympic downhill, combined and Super G, with an outside chance at a medal in all five. +The pressure of being a national hope for Austria, as the country attempts to rebound after 10 years of Swiss domination, might be a negative factor. But Kronberger has had to overcome adversity and long odds most of her life.

It was his 3rd straight victory and the 67th in his Formula One career. +The fire began when Schumacher made a pit stop on the 23rd of 69 laps. Fuel splashed out and ignited, but the fire was quickly extinguished without injury or damage to his car. +'I guess the mechanics felt I was a little bit too cold and cool and wanted to warm me up,' he said. 'I had a little doubt for a moment whether we had a problem with the car because of that fire and how serious it was.' +Schumacher took the lead on Lap 32 from Juan Pablo Montoya, whose engine blew out. Schumacher led comfortably the rest of the race and averaged 138.38 miles an hour for the 185.6 miles. +Asked how it compared with his victory in Austria last year when his teammate, Rubens Barrichello, was instructed by their team to move aside on the last lap to allow him to win, Schumacher said, 'I feel like a winner now.' +Barrichello finished third today, half a second behind Kimi Raikkonen. Raikkonen finished 3.3 seconds behind Schumacher, keeping his lead in the drivers series with 40 points, 2 more than Schumacher. +The race began on the hilly, short track in the Styrian Alps under cloudy skies with Schumacher on the pole. +Moments before the start, Cristiano da Matta, 13th on the grid, had his Toyota stall and the race was halted by a red flag. Moments before the restart 10 minutes later, da Matta's car stalled again and the race was red-flagged once more. +'I pressed the launch button as I normally do and the car just stalled,' da Matta said. +Although the cars got off the grid the next time, Jos Verstappen's Minardi broke down before the first corner. It stopped in a dangerous position, so the safety car came out and slowed the race after the second lap. As the safety car left the track and racing resumed on Lap 5, rain began to fall lightly. +By Lap 13, Schumacher had built his lead to eight seconds over Montoya. But then the rain began to fall harder, and by Lap 16 cars were sliding off the track. Schumacher and Montoya were the first to go wide on Turn 1, but they recovered. +In the wet conditions, Montoya gained ground on Schumacher, and by Lap 20, when he made his first pit stop, Montoya was only 3.4 seconds behind. +Three laps later, Schumacher pitted while leading Raikkonen by 9.4 seconds. His mechanics struggled with the fuel hose nozzle and fuel splashed and caught fire around the fuel opening on the side of the car behind the driver's head. +Mechanics sprayed it with extinguishers, and Schumacher left the pits after a stop of 20.4 seconds, regaining the track in third place. +'Seeing the fire was not nice,' he said, 'but I thought the guys reacted very well with their extinguishers and blew it out immediately, so I kept going.' +On Lap 32, just as Schumacher passed Raikkonen to take second, Montoya's BMW-Williams engine blew out clouds of smoke. +AUTO RACING" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Austrians Dominate Downhill +It seemed like an Austrian national downhill race, with no one else competing.

Waiting politely for a few more skiers -- none of them Austrian -- to take their turn down the icy International race slope, Goetschl finally gave in to the flock of European cameras panning her happy face. +The 23-year-old Goetschl had won the gold medal with a time of 1 minute 48.20 seconds; Dorfmeister, 25, would claim the silver medal 0.15 seconds behind, and Stefanie Schuster, a 29-year-old late bloomer on the Austrian team, had the bronze medal 0.17 seconds behind Goetschl. +'My goal was to just to win any medal,' said Goetschl, who won silver medals in the super-G and the women's combined earlier in the competition. 'This week is unbelievable for me. It's a great week, unforgettable.' +Of the 15 races completed in the two-week championships so far, 10 of the medal winners have been Austrian. Earlier in the competition, the powerful Hermann Maier shared the super-G gold with the Norwegian Lasse Kjus, and won the downhill, edging out Kjus and another Norwegian, Kjetil Andre Aamodt, who are the event's only men to successfully take on the Austrian might so far. +Perhaps it is Goetschl, a farm girl from Obdach, Austria, who makes the most sense of this Alpine domination. Having started skiing at 3 years old, she dreamed of ski racing, the Austrian national sport, and tagged along with her brothers to local races. +'In Austria, it is like football or baseball in America,' she said. 'Where I grew up, it was always a goal for me to be on TV the way the others were.' +Goetschl made her mark in the big leagues at 17 when she won a slalom event in Lillehammer, Norway. By the 1994 Olympics, she was ready to show her worth as one of the youngest skiers competing, but then failed to finish the course. Now she is fourth over all in World Cup points, an aggressive skier with talent in all four of skiing's race disciplines. But her Austrian teammates also know that on any day, any one of the four who made the training cut to compete here could also take a medal. +Take, for example, Alexandra Meissnitzer, the gold-medal winner in the super-G last Monday. She was fourth today, just 0.27 seconds behind Goetschl. If not for an indecipherable skid here or an edge there, she might have stood atop the podium. +'The course was perfect,' Meissnitzer said. 'It was one of the best races I've ever had. The difference in not winning was very small. Renate maybe made a little better speed at the bottom.' +The Austrian roadblock made it frustrating for everyone else, including the best hopes of the United States Ski Team. At first, it seemed that the Austrians might have made a mistake in choosing to run in the middle of the pack today rather than with the early skiers. Snow flurries were predicted for the 11 A.M. start, something the Austrians wanted to avoid. But no snow fell, and the day was alternately sunny and cloud-covered. +'I really thought it would come back and bite them,' Tom Kelly, a spokesman for the United States Ski Team, said. 'But it didn't. They just skied right through it.' +For Megan Gerety, the 27-year-old competitor from Anchorage, a skillful early run of 1:49.30 brought a realistic view of a podium finish. Vail is one of her favorite World Cup destinations. She had fifth-place finishes in the downhills here in 1991 and 1996. But with an eighth-place finish today, she was one more victim of the Austrian machine. She was disappointed but not surprised. +'It's not like it's something new,' Gerety said. 'They've been doing well all season. The momentum carries over to everyone on the team. It pumps everybody up.' +SKIING" +False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Excerpts From Pope's Letter On Catholic-Jewish Relations +LEAD: Following are excerpts from the text of a letter written by Pope John Paul II to Archbishop John L. May of St. Louis, president of the National Conference of Catholic Bishops: +Following are excerpts from the text of a letter written by Pope John Paul II to Archbishop John L. May of St. Louis, president of the National Conference of Catholic Bishops: +In my pastoral concerns, journeys and meetings and in my teachings during the years of my Pontificate, I have constantly sought to develop and deepen our relationships with the Jews, 'our elder brothers in the faith of Abraham,' and I therefore encourage and bless not only this initiative but the initiatives of all those who, in fidelity to the directives of the Second Vatican Council and animated by good will and religious hope, foster relationships of mutual esteem and friendship and promote the Jewish-Christian dialogue in the appropriate places and with due theological competence and historical objectivity. +The more we try to be faithful in loving obedience to the God of the Covenant, the Creator and Savior, contemplating in prayer His wonderful plan of redemption and loving our neighbor as ourselves, the deeper will be the roots of our dialogue and the more abundant its results. +With our hearts filled with this unyielding hope, we Christians approach with fearsome respect the terrifying experience of the extermination, the Shoah, suffered by the Jews during the Second World War, and we seek to grasp its most authentic, specific and universal meaning. +As I said recently in Warsaw, it is precisely by reason of this terrible experience that the nation of Israel, her sufferings and her Holocaust are today before the eyes of the Church, of all peoples and of all nations, as a warning, a witness and a silent cry. Before the vivid memory of the extermination, as recounted to us by the survivors and by all Jews now living, and as it is continually offered for our meditation within the narration of the Pesah Haggadah - as Jewish families are accustomed to do today - it is not permissible for anyone to pass by with indifference. +Reflection upon the Shoah shows us to what terrible consequences the lack of faith in God and a contempt for man created in His image can lead. It also impels us to promote the necessary historical and religious studies on this event which concerns the whole of humanity today. Hope for Positive Results +In this regard, I look forward to positive results from the work of the forthcoming 13th Plenary Session of the International Catholic-Jewish Liaison Committee, to be held in Washington precisely on the subject 'The Shoah, Its Significance and Implications Seen from a Historical and Religious Perspective.' +There is no doubt that the sufferings endured by the Jews are also for the Catholic Church a motive of sincere sorrow, especially when one thinks of the indifference and sometimes resentment which, in particular historical circumstances, have divided Jews and Christians. Indeed, this evokes in us still firmer resolutions to cooperate for justice and true peace. +As I said at Assisi, I wish we could create ever newer opportunities for showing 'what God would like the developing history of humanity to be: a fraternal journey in which we accompany one another toward the transcendant goal which He sets for us.' +In this spirit of peace and universal fraternal solidarity I am preparing to renew to you and to the beloved Jewish community in the United States the joyful proclamation of peace, the Shalom announced by the prophets and awaited by the whole world. I express the hope that this peace will well up like a stream of living water from the bosom of Jerusalem and that there may be accomplished that which was foretold by Zechariah: 'The Lord shall become King over the whole earth; on that day the Lord shall be the only one, and His name the only one' (Zech 14:19)." +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"After Day 1 of Women's Combined, Austrian Rises and Avoids the Tumble +Petra Kronberger, still saddened by her Austrian teammate's training accident over this same slope, began her downhill run at a possible five gold medals in skiing today. +She captured the first day of the women's combined on a course that also continued to send Americans crashing into the life-saving nets and did little to answer questions about the spate of accidents on the slopes in these Games. +Kronberger was barely half a second faster than Krista Schmidinger of Lee, Mass., whose favorite part of the difficult downhill course is the two jumps, one of which sent her teammate, Kristin Krone, tumbling today. +In Tuesday's practice run, the American combined champion, Wendy Fisher, broke her thumb and sprained both knees, coming off a jump. Also at Tuesday's practice, Austria's top women's combined ski racer, Sabine Ginther, fell, broke a bone in her back and was sent home. Sadness Prevails +""All of us on the team were very sad Tuesday night,"" Kronberger said. ""Our coach tried to keep our spirits up. It was hard for me to concentrate today. It's not easy. You think about the injury. But in my years of skiing, I have seen many bad things, and I am accustomed to it."" +It goes with the territory of skiing, downhill in particular. This course is designed by Bernhard Russi, the 1972 Olympic downhill gold medalist who also designed the men's downhill at Val d'Isere. The men's course has been criticized for being overly technical, with pronounced twists that invite a skier to wipe out if unable to turn on a dime. Several men did in the downhill on Sunday and the Alpine combined, although typical of a twisting and thus slower course, none was badly hurt. +But the criticism directed at this course before the Games was the opposite: that it was perhaps too straight, fast and full-throttle. +In fact, Russi had to get the International Ski Federation to bend its rules on the amount of vertical drop allowed for a women's course so he could make full use of the Roc de Fer (Iron Face) mountain that plunges 2,080 feet in the space of a mile and three-quarters. +The question being asked here today was: Is this a dangerous course? +""The conditions are confusing,"" Krone said. ""You'd think that if you have soft snow on the top, the course is slower. But it gets packed near the jumps."" +Regine Cavagnoud of France, who finished far back, used the word ""dangerous"" in describing the second jump. ""You are going too fast,"" she said. +One skier, Vreni Schneider of Switzerland, was a casualty of the course before the racing even began. She decided Tuesday that she wasn't comfortable with the course and announced she would not compete in the combined, sticking to the slalom and giant slalom. +The day was beautiful. Those who remained upright (three fell) at the finish will return on Thursday to ski two different slalom courses. The combined winner of all three events gets the medal. +The 22-year-old Kronberger is Austria's most popular female skier. She has been voted the country's top female athlete the last two years in a poll of journalists. And her income of $300,000 a year from endorsements reflects her wide-ranging appeal. +Here, she is a gold-medal possibility in the combined, the downhill and the super giant slalom, with perhaps a shot at the other two skiing events: the slalom and giant slalom. But her trainer is considering withdrawing her from the giant slalom to avoid the risk of tiring and injury. Combined a Challenge +Schmidinger, whose father is from Austria, admits that the downhill is the stronger of her combined events. So despite today's brilliant run, in which she finished ahead of several of the world's best downhill racers, she is unlikely to win a medal in the combined. +It indicates, though, that she is a candidate for a medal in the downhill against many of these same skiers on Saturday. +""I was ready to explode coming out,"" she said of today's effort. ""But I wasn't concerned about the jumps, even though that's where the other girls crashed. Jumps are my favorite part, so I just went about my business."" +Still, she nearly tumbled -- twice. Sailing Through Air +Coming off the hardest jump, she soared 140 feet, instead of the preferred distance of about 60. Sailing through the air actually takes longer than skiing on the snow. And then, late in the race, she hit the fence, she said, ""a little bit."" Those two incidents might have spelled the split-second difference between first and second. +The energy-absorbing orange netting is particularly valuable at what course designers euphemistically call ""spill zones"" -- the bottom of a jump, or at the end of a steep curve. +That, indeed, was where Krone had her spill today, at the jump in the first half of the course. +""I was in the air, thinking I was going the wrong way, and I couldn't do anything about it,"" she said. Angry After the Crash +Krone's crash was, simply, spectacular. She was out of control as she landed, one ski tilted toward the sky. She went head-first into the netting, as if propelled there in one of those circus acts featuring a woman shot out of a cannon. +""I knew the netting was there,"" she said later. ""I wasn't worried."" +But at the time she was angry. She got up quickly and took a clump of snow out of her helmet and flung it to the ground. +Later, she said, her left hand hurt. ""It feels loose inside."" It was, in fact, diagnosed as being broken. Her two-day event lasted one day. She may be able to compete Saturday, though. +""I'll do anything to get a day off,"" she quipped. +ALBERTVILLE" +False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"First Croatian Medalist Wins the Gold for Her Family +HUNTSVILLE, Utah, Feb. 14 -- For others, a training session might be four hours. For Janica Kostelic, it would be twice as long. While others would practice by skiing through 400 gates a day, Kostelic would ski through 1,200. While war in the former Yugoslavia stopped many of her Croatian teammates from training or from skiing at all, Kostelic and her family fled their native Zagreb and found a place to train in the distant snow of the mountains. +It took resourcefulness and pluck. The Kostelics -- Janica; her brother and fellow Olympian, Ivica; her father, Ante; and her mother, Marika -- once slept a week in a cave after traveling to an unfamiliar mountain where they feared nighttime air strikes. By day they trained. Then it was on to the next mountain, where the accommodations were more plush: the family car. +'For 10 to 12 years we never stopped,' Ante Kostelic said minutes after his daughter had routed the field in winning the Olympic gold medal in today's women's combined event. 'Maybe we did not know better. We did what we thought was right.' +He looked over his shoulder as his daughter climbed a podium for the flower ceremony following her competition. 'You never know; are you father or are you coach?' he said. 'Are you both? I don't know.' +Later, it was Kostelic, the first Croatian medalist at a Winter Olympics, who had no trouble summing up the day's accomplishment. +'This is a family medal,' she said. 'Everything was always me, my brother and my father. My mother was always there on the side, too, and she's the boss. This is great, the family's dream come true.' +Kostelic's gold-medal journey has been more than selfless dedication. She endured a variety of missteps, crashes and injuries. She had three operations on her left knee in the last year alone. Today's combined requires competitors to ski two slalom runs, a Kostelic specialty, and a downhill run. The times of the three races are combined. Although she is the defending overall World Cup champion, Kostelic had avoided the downhill this season and rarely trained at high speed because of her delicate knees. +Today's downhill was the last stage of the competition, so while she held a comfortable 1.1-second lead after the two slalom runs, she was in range of more skilled downhillers like Austria's Renate Götschl, the defending world champion in the combined. But skiing last among the leaders, Kostelic sped along the downhill course in a low, seamless tuck, her hands and arms rarely rising as she negotiated the turns. If the 70-mile-an-hour speeds bothered her state of mind or her knees, she did not show it. Götschl defeated Kostelic in the downhill portion of today's event, but not by nearly enough. +Kostelic's combined time of 2 minutes 43.28 seconds was 1.49 seconds better than that of Götschl, who won the silver medal. Martina Ertl of Germany was third, giving her medals in three successive Winter Olympics. +The American Caroline Lalive, who had been considered a medal contender in three events at these Games, fell about 50 yards from the finish of her first slalom run. Lalive, who also crashed in Tuesday's women's downhill, has now either fallen or failed to complete her last seven races in the Olympics or world championships. Lalive will have one more chance at a medal in these Games, in Sunday's women's super-G. Officials of the United States Ski Team said Lalive would not be among the women competing in the giant slalom or slalom next week. +The top American finisher today was 17-year-old Lindsey Kildow, who was a surprising sixth in her Olympic debut. Kildow, who showed nerve and promise, will take Lalive's spot in the slalom. +Kostelic's exhausting training regimen was established by her father, a former world-class player and coach in team handball, a sport that Marika Kostelic also played. When it came to creating training schedules for Janica and Ivica, Ante Kostelic had no models to follow -- he watched what drills other coaches devised for their skiers and applied them to his children. Because he had often trained his team handball squads for six to eight hours, he figured that his skiing children could do the same. +But the toll on the knees, not to mention the risk of calamitous crashes, is far greater in skiing than in most other sports. And coaches of other countries, noting the relative youth of the skiing Kostelics -- Janica is 20 and Ivica is 22 -- have privately suggested that overwork has led to the many knee problems experienced by Janica and her brother, who has also had frequent operations . +'I am not healthy,' Janica said. 'I think only my right arm is O.K. right now. But it is like this for many of us in skiing. Not just me. My story is a long story, but that's not important. The story is that I started skiing for serious at age 9. I was skiing and skiing and then I came here and I won.' +Indeed, whatever the process, there was no doubting Kostelic's skill, versatility and mettle today. As Götschl, another of the world's best skiers, said, 'Janica was unbeatable today.' +Ante Kostelic, dressed entirely in red, stood near the finish line and waved to a handful of Croatian fans who were waving their nation's flags at him. Asked to reflect on the 14 years he has trained his son and daughter, he shrugged. +'It does not seem that long,' he said. 'There were so many days, but it does not seem like it.

'I just made the next turn, and then I decided that maybe I'd try to make it down.' +Miller coasted down the steep corkscrew of a course, carved long smooth turns on his right ski, which is 7 feet long, and had no problem landing several jumps. Holding his arms out to his side as he skied along, he looked like a kid pretending to be an airplane. +'Che equilibrio,' exclaimed the announcer in the finish stadium. +Aksel Lund Svindal, a young Norwegian who finished second to Raich, said he doubted that even the one-ski drills that he and other ski racers do to develop balance could have prepared him to perform like Miller, who didn't falter even as he flattened several gates marking the course. +'Most racers could ski on one ski, but not as easy as him, I guess,' Svindal said. +As Miller passed by clusters of coaches and photographers, he folded himself into an aerodynamic tuck position with mock earnestness. +One coach who was not impressed was the one responsible for Miller. +'I don't care how big his cape is,' said Phil McNichol, the head coach of the United States Ski Team, who said Miller had risked a career-ending injury. 'It's unnecessary.' +Raich, who is from Pitztal, Austria, and is ranked second in the world behind Miller, is in many ways his opposite. Raich paces himself throughout a season, skipping the most difficult races so he can train and rest. He is rarely candid with the news media, and sits through news conferences with a disciplined, ramrod posture. +'That's not good for him,' said Raich, who was amazed that Miller would put so much strain on his thighs just two days before the world championship downhill. 'He will need a very good massage.' +At some point in the last two seasons, Miller has become the charismatic face of Alpine skiing, stepping into the role of the rebellious super-talent, even though he talks wistfully of returning to anonymity in Franconia, N.H., where he grew up. +Like his larger-than-life predecessors, Hermann Maier and Alberto Tomba, Miller has had his run-ins with the officials who enforce the rules of the sport. He is also famous for big crashes, a byproduct of his unrestrained style. He has crashed in six of seven World Cup slaloms this season. +Whenever he is about to push onto a course, the song 'Born to be Wild' is cued up on the public address system. +'I remember going over the rules in my head,' said Miller, when asked what he was thinking while descending the course, one ski boot out to the side. He said he knew where the race referee would be standing, and looked to see if he would be waved off the track. +'He was definitely out there looking,' Miller said. 'I don't know if he let me go because he didn't care, or if it was still legal.' +Miller said he had hoped to finish and use the afternoon training runs to practice on the hill where the world championship slalom will be held next week. But he was too exhausted to go on. +'I was relaxed, but it was so hard I had to stay focused,' Miller said.

Despite being disqualified shortly after his final, the world's best backstroker, Aaron Peirsol of the United States, was eventually reinstated as the winner of the 200-meter race that he has dominated the last four years. +'A weird one, but it happens, even at this level,' Peirsol said. +It was the most memorable flip turn on an evening in which the Americans extended their lead over the Australian swimmers in the Olympic pecking order with three more gold medals, with Michael Phelps winning the 200 individual medley with relative ease and Amanda Beard winning the 200 breaststroke on the final stroke over Leisel Jones of Australia. +Jones's teammate Jodie Henry, who set a world record in the 100 freestyle semifinals, did not go quite so quickly in Thursday's final but still won the gold in a time of 53.84 seconds, pushing Inge de Bruijn of the Netherlands, the defending Olympic champion, into second place. Natalie Coughlin of the United States finished third. +Phelps's latest victory gave him four gold medals in these Games and six medals over all in six events. It is one of the most remarkable sprees in Olympic history, and with two events remaining -- the 100 butterfly and the medley relay -- two more victories for Phelps are a strong possibility. +If Phelps wins eight medals, he will have more in a single Olympics than any other swimmer. 'First seven, now it's eight; can't get away from the numbers,' Phelps said in reference to his failed attempt to match Mark Spitz's record of seven gold medals in a single Games. 'I'm just going to take it one race at a time.' +After watching how Peirsol won, then lost, then won again on Thursday night, perhaps it is wise not to start counting in advance. After a narrow victory in the 100 backstroke here, Peirsol was a bigger favorite in the 200, and he controlled the race from the time he surfaced. +He was leading after all three turns and finished first in 1 minute 54.95 seconds, nearly 2.5 seconds ahead of Markus Rogan of Austria. In an Olympics that has featured tight finishes, this was a rare rout, but there was a delay in the posting of the results. When they were finally flashed on the electronic scoreboard, the results had Rogan in first and Peirsol at the bottom with the letters DSQ, for disqualified, by his name. +The crowd began to boo, and Peirsol, who had left the pool deck, started shaking his head and expressing his confusion, answering shouted questions from journalists about the disqualification with, 'I don't know yet; I'll find out.' +In the stands, Peirsol's mother was in tears. +The issue turned out to be her son's final turn, which one of the judges apparently believed contained an illegal kick after he flipped to his stomach heading into the wall. +It was a wry twist considering that Peirsol had been one of those who questioned the legality of a kick by the breaststroker Kosuke Kitajima of Japan, who won the 100-meter event at the expense of the American Brendan Hansen, Peirsol's friend. +There was no official protest in that case, but the American team was intent on filing a protest over Thursday night's ruling against Peirsol until the technical committee of the world governing body for swimming, FINA, reinstated Peirsol and posted a revised standing on the scoreboard. Rogan was bumped to second, Razvan Florea of Romania to third and James Goddard of Britain into fourth. +In a statement, FINA said that Peirsol's disqualification had been reversed because the unidentified official's explanation had been 'inadequate' and 'not in the working language of FINA,' which meant not in English or French. +'It turned out the way it probably should have, and I know the guys understand that,' said Peirsol, who complimented his rivals for showing 'a lot of grace and respect.' +But the Austrian and British swimming federations filed protests that FINA's jury of appeal rejected. It was unclear whether the Austrians or the Britons would take the matter to the Court of Arbitration for Sport, the ultimate arbiter in Olympic affairs. +Despite the Austrian protest, Rogan did not appear dissatisfied with his silver medal, but then he has finished behind Peirsol plenty of times. +'I feel like the second-best backstroke swimmer in the world; the best is Peirsol,' Rogan said. 'I never felt like an Olympic champion; I never accepted it in my heart.' +He also suggested that the initial disqualification might have been a punishment from FINA for Peirsol's outspoken criticism of Kitajima's technique. +Peirsol refused to accept that theory. 'It's not my place to say anything; I honestly thought it was just a mistake,' he said of the initial ruling. +As for the accusations regarding Kitajima's kick, Peirsol said: 'I'm not here to bash anybody. I'm staying with what I said, because I know what I saw and know what the rest of the field saw.' +There was less confusion the rest of the day, and it was a miserable day for the Russian swimming icon Aleksandr Popov. +Popov, 32, arrived here with four individual Olympic gold medals and as the reigning world champion in the 50 and 100 freestyle, but he failed to qualify for the 100 final and on Thursday failed to qualify for the semifinals of the 50, in which he still holds the world record. +It is a younger man's sport now, and no younger man is having more success than Phelps, who continued to excel at time management on Thursday, requiring less than an hour to complete his 200 individual medley race, a 10-minute warm down, yet another medal ceremony and a 100 butterfly semifinal. Weary or not, he won that event in 51.61 seconds. That was an Olympic record, a tenth of a second faster than the Ukrainian Andriy Serdinov's record of 51.74 seconds, which was set in the first semifinal. +That was not the first time Phelps had stolen Serdinov's thunder in a hurry. Last year in the world championships in Barcelona, Spain, Serdinov broke the 100 butterfly world record in the first semifinal only to watch Phelps break it again less than five minutes later. +It remains to be seen what the final numbers will be on Friday when they and the American Ian Crocker, the current world-record holder and world champion, swim the 100 butterfly final. +'Ian and I have sort of battled it out the last year,' Phelps said.

Austrians Prevail +Winning in the ski-jump events is also a tradition for Austria, and today, Ernst Vettori and Martin Hollwarth, both from that country, finished one-two in the normal, the shorter of the two jumping events at the Olympics. +Vettori, a 27-year-old veteran who had 14 career victories on the World Cup circuit but no medal in two previous Olympics, gave Austria its first ski-jumping gold medal since its current coach, Toni Innauer, won the short-hill event in Lake Placid, N.Y., in 1980. +Austrians and Finns split the first six places today. +The 17-year-old Hollwarth produced the day's best jump. While cowbells clanged in the traditional European way to urge on the athletes under sunny skies, his first jump of 90.5 meters (about 297 feet) put him far ahead of the field. +Ski jumping is also judged on style, and his combination of length and looks put him 5 points ahead of Vettori. Slight Slip +Hollwarth's second jump was, for him, mediocre, about 25 feet shorter. +""I slipped slightly on the takeoff of my second jump,"" he said later through an interpreter. +The consistent Vettori jumped 88 and then 87.5 meters. He won with a total of 222.8 points to Hollwarth's 218.1. +""I started jumping when I was 8 years old,"" Vettori said. ""I still take great pleasure in it, and obviously more so today."" Bronze Is No Solace +All the top finishers today employed the newly popular V-style, in which the rear of the skis almost touch. Because the front of the skis point away to form a V, there is less drag under the skier's body and he soars farther. +Nieminen, especially, helped bring this style to public attention because he has had such dramatic success with it at such a young age. +Today, though, Nieminen was an unhappy teen-ager, even though his first leap of 88 meters had tied him for second. He slumped on his second jump to 84.5. +""I wasn't satisfied with any of my two jumps,"" he said. He left the news conference with his coach's arm around his shoulders, a bronze Olympic medal apparently not solace enough. +Holland, by contrast, seemed almost delighted. +""Thirteenth place in the Olympics is pretty damn good,"" he said. ""I don't think we get one-fifth the financial support they get in the European countries."" +He is America's best and is expected to do fine when he competes in the large-hill event, which used to be called the 90 meters. Too Much Twist +His leaps today were 85 and 81 meters in the V-style, which he learned only last summer and which still gives him problems. He has a tendency to twist his body, a holdover from the days when skiers attempted to get as much chest as possible over the skis to create a more aerodynamic surface. +The United States actually has won one Olympic ski-jumping medal in the past. In 1924, Anders Haugen was an also-ran in the Olympic competition. But, remarkably, someone was checking the record 50 years later and discovered a scoring error. Haugen had actually finished third.

They joked earlier this week that the only television time they have is on the Tennis Channel. +But on Saturday, ESPN2 cameras and a crowd of 5,327 at the Mohegan Sun Arena focused on their every move as the United States played Austria in the first round of the Davis Cup. +They seized their moment. It just did not last very long. +The Bryans, identical twins from Camarillo, Calif., dispatched Jurgen Melzer and Julian Knowle in straight sets, 6-2, 6-1, 6-4, clinching the three-of-five-match series for the United States, which leads, 3-0, with two singles matches left on Sunday. +Expedience trumped patriotism. The match lasted just 86 minutes. +'It's great to have a day dedicated to you,' Bob Bryan said. +The United States has won 28 straight Davis Cup first-round matches on home soil, but has not won a Davis Cup championship since winning its 31st in 1995. [The United States will play Sweden, which clinched a victory over the defending champion, Australia, when Jonas Bjorkman defeated Mark Philippoussis, 7-5, 6-2, 6-2, on Sunday in Adelaide, Australia.] +After Bob Bryan fired a match-ending service winner at Melzer, the brothers leaped in the air and bumped chests, their signature gesture of joy. They paraded around the court and passed an American flag back and forth to teammates Andy Roddick and Robby Ginepri, who gave the United States a 2-0 lead on Friday with their singles victories. +In the reverse singles pairings Sunday, Roddick is scheduled to play Melzer and Ginepri will meet Stefan Koubek. But because the matches are now an afterthought, Roddick might defer to one of the Bryans. +United States Coach Patrick McEnroe said he thought it best to enlist men who play doubles for a living instead of those from the singles ranks. Last year, James Blake and Mardy Fish lost a two-set lead against Goran Ivanisevic and Ivan Ljubicic of Croatia. That gave Croatia a 2-1 lead and it won the series, 4-1, to oust the Americans in the first round for just the sixth time. The United States is 13-17 in doubles since 1992. +The Bryans won the confidence of their coach when they won in their Davis Cup debut last fall in a qualifying series victory over Slovakia. +'It's really relaxing to the other guys,' McEnroe said. 'The other guys know they can focus on what they need to do. These guys give us the best chance of winning the doubles. That outweighs having singles guys step in.' +The Bryans, the oldest players on the American team at 25, had little trouble with the Austrians, who have never won a Davis Cup title. +Melzer smashed his racket after a poor return in the second set, but the anger seemed futile. It was a mismatch on paper, too. The Bryans won the 2003 French Open and made the final of the Australian Open last month. Melzer is a singles specialist ranked 76th and Knowle has a doubles ranking of 38th. +The teams were on serve until Melzer double-faulted on game point to give the United States a 4-2 lead in the first set. The rout accelerated from there. The Bryans zipped through their service games. They lost their serve once, but they were already leading by 4-2 in the third set. Bob Bryan, a left-hander with the bigger server of the two, was particularly impressive, nudging the radar gun to 139 miles an hour just one day after Roddick hit a record 150 m.p.h. serve. +'I was blowing my own mind,' said Bryan, who has never served faster. +The Bryans also kept the Austrians off balance with aggressive service returns. +'They were just too good,' Melzer said. 'There was no chance for us.' +Austrian Coach Gunter Bresnik used Melzer in place of Alexander Peya. Peya had a sore wrist and Melzer was impressive in building a two-set lead before losing his match Friday against Ginepri. That was among Bresnik's last moves as coach. He retired Saturday and said Thomas Muster would probably take over as Davis Cup coach. +Meanwhile, the Bryans said they hoped to qualify for the United States Olympic team.

Daron Rahlves was third despite a costly mistake. +'It's tough to think this is the last time I'll be on this hill,' said Rahlves, who was hoping to win here in the most perilous ski race in the world before he retires this spring. 'This place is like nowhere else in the world.' +Bad weather forced organizers to move the start shack lower on the mountain, beneath the enormous Mausfalle jump. The same thing happened in 2003, when Rahlves became the first American since Bud Werner in 1959 to win the Hahnenkamm race. +The lower start may put an asterisk on Walchhofer's victory. He disagreed. +'For me, it has the exact same value as if I had started from the top,' said Walchhofer, who took the lead in the season-long World Cup downhill standings from Fritz Strobl after Strobl crashed, breaking his left hand. +Walchhofer won the race in 1 minute 46.75 seconds. By comparison, Jakob Lackner took 9:55 to win the first running of the race, in 1930. +An estimated 50,000 fans made the pilgrimage to Kitzbühel to see the downhill, which is a national institution. The finish area is a strange mix of fur coats and squalor, as the country's elite move through luxurious sections and others partake in huge quantities of gluwein, a hot spiced wine. +With 7 of 10 downhills complete, Walchhofer has 472 points, Strobl 415 and Rahlves 390. No American man has won the downhill title, and Rahlves has made it his No. 1 goal this season, even before the Olympic downhill gold. +Strobl's broken hand means he will miss next weekend's downhill and super-G races in Garmisch, Germany, but he is expected to return in time to defend his 2002 Olympic downhill title next month in Italy. +Bode Miller, who was fourth on Saturday, said he would race in Sunday's slalom here but is considering skipping the Garmisch races to rest an aching knee in the lead-up to the Olympic Alpine races. +Miller has competed in each of the past 134 World Cup races, far more than any other active skier. +'The priority right now is to make sure I have my equipment sorted out well in every event, so that I can race hard in every event,' he said Saturday This was the last race that will enter into the United States ski team's selection criteria for the Olympic downhill. Rahlves and Miller have clinched spots, but the final two start positions are still not determined. Scott Macartney, Marco Sullivan and Steve Nyman have had similar results this season. +All four of the Canadians in the race were running the course for the first time. (Last year the race was canceled because of poor weather, and the year before their coaches had felt this generation of skiers was too young and inexperienced to start.) +One of them, Erik Guay, finished fifth despite not being able to see the gates as he bounced over ice at speeds close to 90 miles an hour. +'You just try to pick a point farther on and arc across the hill toward it,' Guay, 24, said. 'The best part is actually when you're in the air. When you're not touching the snow, you can finally see something.' +Guay skied aggressively despite feeling nervous in the start after watching the run of his teammate Manny Osborne-Paradis, who slid low on the treacherous Steilhang and actually skied up onto the safety netting. +It was a mistake similar to the one that Brian Stemmle of Canada made in 1989, except Stemmle caught the tip of his ski in the netting and came to a stop, sustaining severe internal injuries and a broken pelvis. +After spending three months in hospitals, Stemmle sued the Hahnenkamm's organizers for a negligent shortage of plastic fencing, won his case before the Austrian supreme court, and returned to race again at Kitzbühel eight times in the 1990's. +'I always say that's the toughest thing I'll ever have to do, is stand in that start gate at Kitzbühel in 1993 knowing that I almost died there,' Stemmle said this week.

Five days later, the results of doping tests performed on 10 Austrian athletes were still not known. +The International Olympic Committee said that the delay was not unusual and that more time was needed to check for the blood-boosting drug EPO. +'The laboratory analysis is still ongoing,' the I.O.C. spokeswoman Giselle Davies said Thursday at her daily news briefing. 'It just takes this long sometimes, and that's the bottom line.' +The mood of the Austrians might be tempered, but the scene at the Austria House shows how an open bar and free food can ease the tension. +The snowboarder Siegfried Grabner, fresh off a bronze-medal performance in the parallel giant slalom, was greeted at the Austria House on Wednesday night by a television crew, a platter with fruit and a chocolate cake, and dozens of fans giving him hugs, handshakes and kisses. +'It's not so often that you win a medal,' Grabner said. 'I enjoy it a lot that there are others to celebrate this accomplishment with.' +As for the doping issue, Grabner said, 'I am not going to let that overshadow my accomplishment.' +Initially, the raid Saturday night outraged Austrian officials. But the police said they had confiscated syringes, glucose drips and other medical equipment, and then two biathletes fled to Austria, compelling the Austrian officials to address the situation. +The Austrian Olympic Committee, not satisfied with how the Austrian ski federation had handled the incident, formed a commission to investigate. +The raid came after the authorities learned that Walter Mayer, a former Austrian coach who was implicated in a doping incident at the Salt Lake Games in 2002, was in contact with the team here. Mayer had been suspended by the I.O.C. through the 2010 Games, and federation officials insisted that he was at the Turin Games independent of the Austrian ski team. But they admitted that he had spent a night in the team's private quarters. +Peter Schröcksnadel, president of the ski federation, said he had no knowledge that Mayer had stayed in the team's housing until afterward. Another top official, Markus Gandler, said he was not aware that Mayer was not allowed to be in close contact with athletes during the Games. +But Matthias Bogner, the sports director for the Austrian Olympic Committee and the director of Austria House, said the committee had made it clear that Mayer should not have been in contact with the team without an accreditation. +'The crisis management was very, very bad by the Austrian ski federation,' Bogner said. 'Some people must be held responsible. Everyone is waiting on the resulting consequences in the ski federation.' +Salzburg, Austria, is in the running to be host of the 2014 Winter Games. The Austrian Olympic Committee hopes to salvage Salzburg's campaign by showing that when problems arise, it knows how to take the appropriate action, Bogner said. Therefore, he added, there is a possibility that top officials could be in trouble. +Even some of Austria's fans have become skeptical of the cross-country and biathlon teams. +'They made a mistake in that they are not sticking to what they say,' Rainer Schennach, who is from a small village in the Austrian state of Tyrol, said Wednesday night at the Austria House. +When it comes to finding ways to be competitive, Schennach said: 'Every federation pushes the limit. Apparently, the Austrian federation has gone over that limit.' +The guests at Austria House have included politicians, sponsors and gold-medal winners, and the parties last as late as 4 a.m. With plain wood walls and no paint or siding, the house seems makeshift. In a way, it is. After the Turin Games, the house will be taken down and re-erected in the Austrian town of Bischofshofen. +The legacy left behind could depend largely on what becomes of the suspicions of doping, even though Austria is approaching its Winter Games record of 21 medals. +2006 OLYMPIC WINTER GAMES -- DOPING RAID" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Montillet's Tough Year Ends Triumphantly in Downhill +After the finish line of the Olympic women's downhill, after her gold medal-winning time had been posted, after bowing her head and rising to wave to the French fans beating drums in the grandstands, Carole Montillet knew she could again think of her friend Régine Cavagnoud. +For the past two weeks, Montillet played a joyless game of self-control as she tried to separate herself from her thoughts of Cavagnoud, who had been France's best female skier until her death in October after a training accident. For months after the accident, Montillet was consumed by Cavagnoud's death. Naturally, she grieved for her teammate, but as her heir apparent, she also found that the conclusion of every race this season brought about another period of commiseration for what the French team had lost. +'It was very difficult because it did not matter whether the race results were good or bad,' said Montillet, whose upset victory today at the Snowbasin Ski Area was her first victory in an international downhill race. 'Everything referred to Régine. I felt I was losing my own identity.' +A week before the Salt Lake Games began, Montillet left the World Cup circuit and traveled to San Diego. She trained in sunlight and sand, away from the European news media, the trappings of the World Cup and her own French team, fleeing every reminder of what she and the skiing community had lost when Cavagnoud crashed into a German coach who had strayed onto the French team's training course. +'My time in San Diego was liberating,' Montillet said. 'I focused on freeing myself, knowing it was something I had to do before the Olympics. Today I raced for myself, but I know that Régine was with me. Always, every day, she is with me in my heart. I can think of that now. The gold medal is for me, for her, for our coaches, for all of us on our team.' +While the women's downhill, which was postponed Monday and delayed by two hours today, began as the setting for Picabo Street's final chance to become the first American skier to win a medal in three Olympics, it ended with a victory that seemed to delight almost everyone. +After a fast start, Street finished 16th. She said of Montillet: 'This has been a very tough year for the French team. I don't know that I could have lost a teammate and gone on, so I am so happy for her and them.' +Isolde Kostner, perhaps the pre race favorite, won the silver medal, becoming the first Italian to win an Olympic downhill medal in 50 years. Renate Götschl of Austria won the bronze. The top American finisher was Jonna Mendes, who was 11th. +Montillet, 28, posted her winning time, 1 minute 39.56 seconds, early in the draw, taking advantage of favorable snow conditions. Most of the top contenders, who have their choice of when to start in the race, had selected spots later in the starting order, apparently believing the snow might be faster as the bright sun of a cloudless day melted and turned icy on the surface. But perhaps because of the two-hour delay, the opposite proved true. No one genuinely challenged Montillet, who won by 45-hundredths of a second over Kostner. +Montillet's chief advantage, however, was how calm her skis were through the midsection of the Snowbasin course, which was where every other skier seemed to slow. Montillet drove her skis forward in this turn-filled sequence, and, unlike the others, she picked up speed. +Street, who started 26th, gave Montillet a solid challenge. With a mostly American crowd at the bottom of the mountain cheering as she began her run, Street beat Montillet's split times in the first third of the course -- and was the only skier to do so. But as Street entered the first major right-hand turn, a plume of snow sprouted from the tails of her skis. +It was a sign of a slightly skidded turn, but it might as well have been the smoke from a blown engine at the Indianapolis 500. By the next timed interval, Street went from being ahead to trailing by nearly a second. +'I wished I could have gone off with a medal,' Street said. 'But I leave very happy and proud.' +Given the snow conditions, in retrospect, the American with the best chance at getting on the medal podium might have been Caroline Lalive, the second racer on the course. But Lalive, after skiing the top portion well, caught an edge and fell. The other American medal hopeful, Kirsten Clark, was 12th. +Austria's Michaela Dorfmeister, another of the favorites, who chose to be the 25th skier on the course, also lost ground in the midsection after a reasonably quick start. She finished ninth. +In the end, though, it was a smiling Montillet who captured the day. Having placed 14th in her two races at the 1998 Olympics and having lived in the shadow of Cavagnoud for many years, Montillet had happily found a way to face the pressure of losing and succeeding her friend: a gold medal. +'It has been a very tough, hard year,' said Montillet, standing near the finish line with a French flag draped around her shoulders. 'I know it has changed all of us. But we have this gold medal now. It does matter.

As Jozef Chovanec, a key midfielder for Czechoslovakia, set himself to receive a pass just inside the penalty area, Klaus Lindenberger, the Austrian goalkeeper, raced toward him and dived at the ball, which he missed. Instead, he caught Chovanec at the feet and brought him down. Smith signaled a foul, and Czechoslovakia got a penalty kick. +Bilek sent the ball screaming past Lindenberger's right to the corner of the goal. Chovanec was diagnosed as having reinjured a hip muscle. It is doubtful he will be available to face Italy. +Czechoslovakia will also be without its other leading midfielder, Lubos Kubik. The yellow card he received in the 70th minute was his second in two games, which makes him ineligible to play the team's next game. +West Germany 5, United Arab Emirates 1 +MILAN, Italy (AP) - West Germany easily qualified for the second round of the World Cup, beating the United Arab Emirates behind two goals by Rudi Voller. +Voller and a fellow striker, Jurgen Klinsmann, scored late in the first half.

Miller, the defending world champion, a pre-Olympic news media star and a medal contender in five events, made it 0 for 3 Saturday when he slammed into a gate in the men's super-G, then teetered off the course like a weekend novice looking for somewhere soft to fall. +In a surprise, Kjetil Andre Aamodt, 34, of Norway, won the race, 14 years after he won the super-G at the Albertville Games in France. Aamodt has won eight Olympic medals, the most of any Alpine skier. Hermann Maier of Austria, whose dominance at previous Games Miller had hoped to duplicate, took the silver medal, and Ambrosi Hoffmann of Switzerland earned the bronze medal. +United States ski team officials did not discuss Miller's latest failure. Over the years, they have tolerated his wild-child act, especially after his many successes last season. But with the team having disappointing results, Miller's collapse has cast a malaise on athletes who had hoped to challenge the vaunted Austrians for dominance in Olympic Alpine skiing. +A week into the Alpine competition that was supposed to set Miller up as the most decorated American Olympic skier ever, he has finished fifth in the downhill, blown a large early lead in the combined when he straddled a gate and skidded off the racecourse in one of his best events. +'We're all having our problems, not just Bode,' Daron Rahlves, another multiple-medal contender for the United States who has been shut out here, said Saturday. Rahlves finished 9th Saturday and was 10th in the downhill. 'I didn't feel I had it today. I don't know what's going on exactly. It's kind of strange.' +Miller's failures have been amplified by his apathetic, almost bored, postrace reactions and numerous sightings of him in the few nightclubs of this small village in the western Italian Alps. Publicly, United States ski team officials have generally not commented on Miller's performances on or off the slopes. But Miller, who won two silver medals at the 2002 Winter Games, was the face of the team and was expected to lead the American skiers to their stated goal of eight Olympic medals. +They have instead won one medal, a gold earned by a little-known 21-year-old, Ted Ligety. +In Miller, the United States ski team finds itself hitched to a mercurial contrarian who has always said he does not value medals or victories, but the team did not know that Miller would pick this fortnight to prove that he meant what he said. +'I look for objective results by my own standards,' Miller said after the downhill last weekend. 'And with that perspective, I skied the way I wanted to today. It was a good run.' +After missing a gate in the combined, a major gaffe in a race he seemed likely to win if he avoided a significant mishap, Miller smiled and joked. His blunder meant he did not have to make the 60-mile trip to Turin for the medal ceremony the next day, or as Miller said near the finish line, 'At least now I don't have to go all the way to Torino.' +Saturday's super-G was halted after 30 minutes because heavy snowfall made for poor visibility. Restarted in the midafternoon, all of the morning runs were discarded and the race resumed under sunny skies. +Miller came down the super-G course with the pedigree to sweep the field. After the first section, he was on a pace to have the fastest time. Then, about one minute into his run, making a right-to-left turn, he inexplicably skied too close to a tricky gate in a flat section of the course. Miller is always aggressive -- that is why he is fast -- but this was reckless. His left ski crashed into the gate, and Miller spun around, skiing inelegantly as he balanced on one leg. +Knowing his chances at a medal were gone, Miller got both skis on the snow and left the course near a side gate, skiing through the woods, and never returned to the finish area to talk to teammates, team officials or reporters. +Miller, who stays in an R.V. near the finish area, will race in two more events next week: the giant slalom Monday and the slalom next Saturday. He will be a long shot in the slalom, an event in which he has not contended during the World Cup season. But Miller, if not for his bad streak in these Games, would be viewed as a certain gold-medal contender in the giant slalom. He won a World Cup giant slalom in December in Beaver Creek, Colo. +If Miller, 28, can win any medal, he will become the first American Alpine skier to win three Olympic medals in a career. +As baffling as Miller's results have been at the Turin Games, his life and his performances on the mountain have been a mystifying jumble from the moment he won last season's World Cup overall title in March. In the news conference immediately after the race that clinched the award, which had not been won by an American skier since Phil Mahre in 1983, Miller was expected to celebrate. Instead, a dour Miller announced that he might not ski in these Winter Games. +The reason? +He didn't want to become too famous. +At lunch in Manhattan a month later, Miller insisted he was serious about his potential Olympic boycott. +'Everyone wants to be rich and famous, but most don't like it when they get it,' Miller said. 'And I'm one of those people. The rich part is O.K., but the famous I can do without.' +Asked if he would not be calling more attention to himself by staying away from the Olympics, Miller paused to sign an autograph for a waiter, then answered: 'I could fade away. No problem.' +Three days later, he signed a two-year endorsement deal with Nike. Among other things, the company agreed to set up a Web site, joinbode.com, that contained Miller's pontifications on things like the excesses of youth sports and his distrust of authority. +Miller then spent the summer, by his own admission, playing golf and drinking beer. He worked out -- he has a self-designed regimen that includes pushing an old one-ton paving vehicle up the hills near his home in Franconia, N.H. -- but it is not clear how often. Miller kept reporters at arm's length for months, then showed up for the opening of the World Cup circuit overweight by about 10 pounds at 222. +For hardly the first time, his coaches on the United States ski team fretted that Miller was squandering a golden Olympic opportunity. But when he came in second in the World Cup season's first race in Austria, everyone in the ski community gave the usual response: It's just Bode being Bode. +In an interview earlier this year, Miller said, 'The whole world would be better off if people thought for themselves and trusted themselves instead of doing what television commercials tell them to do or thinking in whatever way the media tells them to think.' +This kind of thinking influenced his skiing style as well, and it frustrated coaches who tried to make him use a more traditional technique. As a teenager, Miller made the United States team despite the protests of several national coaches. But as a 20-year-old in 2001, he won a national championship in slalom, and a year later he won four World Cup races. +The United States ski team has been on a wild ride, tethered to the willful Miller, ever since. +The team's coaches and executives happily went along with the unmanageable Miller, rolling their eyes behind him as he spoke, in early 2005 when Miller was dominating the European skiing elite as no American racerbefore him. But the officials cringed when all the interviews from Miller's late-2005 book tour became public. +The best known of those interviews was broadcast on '60 Minutes' on CBS in January, when Miller seemed to indicate he skied the final race of last season while drunk. Miller apologized after the '60 Minutes' interview, but his agent and the United States ski team president had to fly to Switzerland to make him do so. +Heading into the Olympics, Rahlves defended Miller. But many of his other teammates seemed to be growing weary of the distractions Miller caused. +Miller has not traveled with the team for two seasons, preferring his R.V. He often skips team meetings and functions. What Miller calls individualism, his coaches and teammates sometimes privately call selfishness. While it grates on them, they have largely chosen to ignore the tension it creates for fear of making it worse by saying something. +For example, Miller slept late before the Olympic men's downhill, skipped the customary course inspection and arrived about one hour before the start. Phil McNichol, the United States men's head coach, was asked if Miller's prerace decision-making had bothered him. +'It's happened before,' he said, shrugging. 'Same old thing. We have said this many times: Bode does things his own way. I believe he is trying. But this is the Olympics, and is it enough?' +2006 OLYMPIC WINTER GAMES -- ALPINE SKIING: MEN'S SUPER-G +Correction: February 27, 2006, Monday A front-page article on Feb. 19 about Bode Miller, who had been expected to lead the United States ski team during the Turin Olympics, misstated the year he won the national championship as a 20-year-old.

Jürgen Klinsmann, a former teammate at Bayern Munich and now a technical adviser for the Los Angeles Galaxy of Major League Soccer, was calling. +'I was looking for a new life experience,' Herzog, now an All-Star midfielder in M.L.S., said in a telephone interview. 'The only bad thing is that they should have called two years ago. I'm 35 now and not the youngest player. I don't know how much longer I can last.' +Herzog is doing fine so far. A savvy, left-footed player, he has been one of the best players in the league on the best team in M.L.S. The Galaxy has the most points in M.L.S. (32) and the most goals (33), but it has played at least two more games than every other team. The Galaxy has four players (Carlos Ruiz, Alejandro Moreno, Jovan Kirovski and Herzog) among the top 15 scorers in the league. +Although M.L.S. has generally been averse to importing high-priced players from overseas after disappointments like Lothar Matthäus and Khodad Azizi, Herzog has not bungled his move to the United States. +'Andi has become the focal point for our attack on the field and has endeared himself to his teammates with his humor, stories and willingness to work with the young players,' Galaxy Coach Sigi Schmid said in an e-mail message. +The Galaxy will be in Minneapolis tonight for a U.S. Open Cup match against the Minnesota Thunder of the A-League, a match that was moved from James Griffin Stadium in St. Paul to the Metrodome, where a crowd of about 10,000 is expected, said Jim Froslid, a Thunder executive. But Herzog, who missed the second half on Saturday with a strained lower back, will not play on the artificial turf indoors. +As the end of his career nears, Herzog would like to field one more important phone call regarding soccer -- from the coach of Austria's national team, Hans Krankl. +'Of course I would like to play for Austria against England, it would be nice to play against Beckham,' said Herzog, who has played 103 times for Austria, including twice in the World Cup. +Austria is scheduled to play England in a 2006 World Cup qualifier on Sept. 4 in Vienna. +MAJOR LEAGUE SOCCER Cleveland Still May Get a Team +In expanding to 12 teams for next season, M.L.S. followed the money from Cleveland to Utah, awarding a team to a group led by Dave Checketts, formerly the top executive at Madison Square Garden, for the 2005 season. +Last year, the league signed a letter of intent to award a franchise to Bert Wolstein, a real estate developer and philanthropist. Wolstein had proposed a $110 million stadium project for either downtown Cleveland or Summit County, north of the city. But Wolstein died in May. The agreement remains in place with deadlines for stadium development, season-ticket targets and sponsorship commitments. +'We are continuing to move forward and hope to have something new on stadium financing in the next three weeks, but the clock continues to tick,' Paul Garofolo said in interviews last week. Garofolo had long worked with Wolstein at the Cleveland Force of the Major Indoor Soccer League. 'We continue to move forward with our desire to bring M.L.S. to Cleveland in 2006.' +Garofolo met with M.L.S.

Halfway down the Patscherkofel course, he trailed Bernhard Russi, and needed something special to make up time. +Coming out of a jump, Klammer made a wide, even reckless turn near a fence that accelerated him to victory by .33 of a second. 'It was my best decision ever,' he said yesterday. He relives the memory frequently for corporate audiences and a videotape of his assault on the downhill never seems far away. +'I watch it often and I win all the time,' he said, laughing. +Now, 15 years since he last competed in the Olympics, Klammer, 45, is in a race to persuade the International Olympic Committee to select Klagenfurt, a joint Austrian-Italian-Slovenian bid for the 2006 Winter Games. He is one of the organizing committee's athletic ambassadors sent out to extol the unique three-nation 'bid without borders' against the other bid cities: Sion, Switzerland, which is considered an early front-runner after losing bids for the 1976 and 2002 Games; Turin, Italy; Helsinki, Finland; Zakopane, Poland, and Poprad-Tatry, Slovakia. +'This is the first three-country bid ever,' said Klammer, who lives in the Austrian region of Carinthia, of which Klagenfurt is the capital. 'Once, we were at war against each other. Now we're trying to bring countries and regions together. It fits perfectly into the Olympic ideal.' +The I.O.C.'s choice of the winning city on June 19 in Seoul, South Korea, will come amid new rules promulgated two months ago in the aftermath of the Salt Lake City bribery scandal. Visits to bid cities by I.O.C. members were halted to limit lavish hospitality and illicit gift-giving. The new regulation has forced bid city officials to go on the road to plead their cases to I.O.C. members. +'It's unfair because Sion is well known,' said Michael Ausserwinkler, the president of Klagenfurt 2006, during an interview with Klammer in New York yesterday. 'Sion is 20 to 30 miles from Lausanne,' the site of the I.O.C.'s headquarters. 'We wanted to show I.O.C. members what's going on with us.' +He said that as many as 100 total I.O.C. member visits to the proposed three-nation Olympic region, planned last November, were canceled when the Salt Lake scandal tainted the Olympic movement. +'This hurts us,' Klammer said. 'But we'll make the best of it.' Even if it means preparing Klagenfurt for another bid for the 2010 Olympics. +Klagenfurt officials have pitched their bid to I.O.C. members in Lausanne, Bangkok and Mexico City, offering ceremonial Olympic pins but no other inducements, Ausserwinkler said. Klammer will soon travel to Japan. Without the visits to the region, Ausserwinkler has had to provide I.O.C. members geography lessons and assuage some of their concerns that the locale is too close to the war in Kosovo. +Now, the committee is producing CD-ROMs that will provide I.O.C. members with a visual tour of the area and its venues, including the women's downhill course, which starts at a mountain top where Austria, Slovenia and Italy meet. +'We're quite hopeful it's the right time for a new step in Olympic history,' Ausserwinkler said. +Klammer and Ausserwinkler said they cannot gauge the impact of the scandal on the I.O.C. or how reforms will alter the organization. +'They're changing,' Klammer said. 'If it's enough, I don't know. We're so focused on what we're doing. But we believe in the Olympic movement. It's still good for the kids. It's good for the world.

But in a town from another era with pedestrian-only streets and century-old chalets, that poster looks like another museum piece. +It has been nearly four years since Moe won the Olympic downhill in Kvitfjell, Norway, and he has yet to win another international race. He has experienced both a major knee injury -- suffered on the same course where he won the gold medal -- and a major dose of reality. +Today on the Lauberhorn, as skiing's newest poster child, Hermann Maier of Austria, gambled and won his fifth consecutive World Cup race, Moe hit a tricky series of small bumps in mid-course, crossed his ski tips and went sprawling into a safety barrier at approximately 60 miles an hour. +He emerged unscathed, but for the moment, the yawning gap between the defending Olympic champion and the sturdy, supremely confident Austrian who wants to replace him looks unlikely to close in the four weeks that remain until the downhill in Japan. +'It's just a psychological barrier,' Moe said. 'I just need to let it hang out. I was letting it hang out the best I could today, and it's good to know it's in there. I've just got to dig a little deeper, but I'll be ready when the Olympics come.' +While his fellow American Picabo Street built on her 1994 Olympic silver medal in the women's downhill by achieving greater success on the World Cup circuit, Moe proved incapable of using his Olympic title as a launching pad, although he said that it had sent his earnings soaring. +'I don't feel badly because I gave it my best shot every time I was in the gate,' Moe said. 'Picabo was in a different situation because in women's ski racing, if you're more confident than everybody else, you can win. In her situation, I don't think the competition was as deep, but she was definitely skiing out of her mind to win nine downhills.' +Moe knows that no man or woman has won two Olympic downhills. He also knows that Maier, a former bricklayer and ski instructor, is on a history-making, peer-rattling roll and has all but clinched the prestigious World Cup overall title with two months remaining in the season. Although Maier is at his crushing best in the more technical disciplines of Super G and giant slalom, he also has won two of the four downhills contested thus far and finished second in another. +Today, his time of 1 minute 44.59 seconds was .68 seconds faster than anyone else. +As Moe watched a replay of Maier's winning run on the giant video screen in Wengen's finish area, he saluted the Austrian, saying: 'He just ripped those turns at the bottom. He's just going straight, just carving it. Unreal. He's just stronger and taking a more direct line on his skis than the rest of us. I take my hat off to him.' +For the moment, Maier cannot return the favor. The Americans have three experienced downhillers in Moe, AJ Kitt and Kyle Rasmussen, who at age 29 is coming back after major knee surgery. But after today's race, not one American is ranked in the top 35. +The United States has four slots in the Olympic downhill, but men's coach Bill Egan said he might select only two skiers if results do not improve. +'We're not going to take people there to be tourists,' he said. 'We're going to take skiers to Japan that we feel can be competitive or that we feel really deserve an opportunity to get exposure to the Olympics because they might do really well in Salt Lake City in 2002.' +In Thursday's final training run, Kitt finished a whopping eight seconds behind the leader and kicked his skis in disgust. Today, he finished 2.39 seconds behind Maier, in 30th place, and did not look a great deal happier. +Rasmussen, the rangy Californian who won on this classic, narrow course in 1995 but tore knee ligaments on it last season, flirted with danger again today as he lost his balance in the closing stretch. He missed the last gate, came off the finishing jump and struck the protective barrier. Somehow, he avoided falling and finished. +As Rasmussen trudged out of the finish area, he passed unnoticed through a large group of European journalists. They were all waiting for Maier. +NAGANO 1998" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"U.S. Finish Is Memorable, But Not for Right Reason +The door smacked the United States on its way out of the Alpine skiing world championships Sunday, when it finished dead last in the team event. It put together the worst performance by any nation in the short history of team racing. +The skiers on the United States team made a mess of the icy slope, wrecking and inexplicably flying past gates as if they were lost. They collected, by far, the most points in a race in which the object is to gather as few as possible. +'It's a tough way to end the championships,' said Jesse Hunt, director of the United States team's Alpine program. His skiers won three medals, all silver, in these 11-race championships. +Austria easily won the team race with 18 points. Sweden was second with 33 and Switzerland was third (39) among the 11 teams. +The United States, whose top racers were sidelined because of injury and fatigue, finished with 77 points, which put them well behind Alpine skiing lightweights like the Czech Republic (57) and Slovenia (58). +The team event, in which skiers compete in the super-G and slalom, was introduced two years ago. Since then, no national team had done as poorly in the race as the United States did Sunday. +'We didn't have our all-star team competing today, and that hurt,' said Ted Ligety, the 2006 Olympic champion in the combined. 'We had to go hard and we had to hope it paid off, but it didn't.' +The biggest applause the United States team received was when Resi Stiegler of Jackson Hole, Wyo., imitated the 'belly slide,' which is the traditional victory celebration of Anja Paerson of Sweden. But unlike Paerson, who does the slide in the finish area, Stiegler did it on the race hill, after crashing. +Tim Jitloff, an eager 22-year-old from Reno, Nev., turned in a respectable run. He races with the words 'Thanks Dr. Orr' on his helmet in recognition of Terry Orr, the ski team surgeon, who repaired his left knee 14 months ago. +The team event was the last competition in the 15-day championships, which take place every two years. Austria finished with nine medals, two ahead of host Sweden. +Bode Miller sat out Sunday's race with what coaches were characterizing as a relatively minor knee injury. The two women who won the United States team's three medals at this event were also sidelined. +Julia Mancuso, who took silver behind Paerson in the women's super-combined, was at home in California taking a long-planned break before rejoining the World Cup circuit next week in Spain. +Lindsey Kildow, who was runner-up to Paerson in the downhill and the super-G, withdrew from the competition Friday after injuring her right knee in a training crash. +Kildow and Mancuso are in striking distance of titles on the World Cup circuit, which resumes this week and ends next month. Mancuso has a chance for the overall title, which no United States woman has won since Tamara McKinney became the first in 1983. +These championships will probably be remembered for the numerous weather-related postponements and the ascension of the Scandinavians, who won 5 of the 10 individual world titles. Paerson won three gold medals and Aksel Lund Svindal of Norway won the men's downhill and giant slalom. +Paerson became the only skier to win world titles in all five of skiing's disciplines. +For Hermann Maier of Austria, this was the first time he failed to win a medal at a world championships or Olympics he entered. Maier, 34, said it was important for a champion to know the feeling of defeat -- another example of the humility he has exhibited since his near-fatal motorcycle crash in 2001. +Miller, 29, was also shut out of the medals, as he was at the Olympics last year in Turin, Italy. The difference this year was that Miller had been splendid on the World Cup circuit. +At the world championships two years ago in Bormio, Italy, Miller won the downhill and the super-G. But he saved perhaps his greatest performance for the combined event, in which he lost his ski while landing a jump at high speed and continued on the downhill course on one ski -- a moment so memorable that few remember who actually won. +SKIING" +False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Summer Skiing: Mornging Adventures in the Alps +LEAD: SNOW may have melted off the mountains in the Northern Hemisphere, but glaciers never die. In fact, they hold enough snow for skiing 12 months of the year, right through the summer. In the Alps, a number of ski resorts have installed lifts and developed skiing terrain on glaciers for winter use and these are often kept open through the summer. +SNOW may have melted off the mountains in the Northern Hemisphere, but glaciers never die. In fact, they hold enough snow for skiing 12 months of the year, right through the summer. In the Alps, a number of ski resorts have installed lifts and developed skiing terrain on glaciers for winter use and these are often kept open through the summer. A few resorts on this continent have done so as well. +While only avid skiers would plan a summer skiing vacation abroad, especially given the vagaries of the dollar, if you are in Europe anyway glacier skiing is a unique and relatively accessible experience. Skiing on a glacier may seem like a dangerous sport, but glaciers aren't much different from ordinary ski terrain. Except for a few steep pitches, the treeless fields of snow are fairly tame for experienced skiers and the lift-served sections are generally far from crevasses or other hazards. +The greatest danger is the sun in the high altitudes, with reflections from the snow coming from every direction. To avoid a serious sunburn, skiers are cautioned to use strong suntan lotion. +What is different about glacier skiing is the snow surface. Temperatures get down to freezing at night on the glaciers, firming the surface. By the time skiers reach the glacier at 8 or 9 A.M., however, the sun has been shining for an hour or more, and the snow is beginning to thaw. +The freeze-thaw cycle is what makes glacier skiing distinct. The surface is usually very hard in the early morning. Gradually the surface becomes granular, and the skiing can be like moving on ball bearings, but the snow is very forgiving so you can always get your ski edge to hold. As the sun beats down and the heat penetrates the granular snow, the surface becomes thicker and eventually is so mushy it is unskiable. +In July and August, the time to ski a glacier is limited to 8 A.M. to noon. The air temperature is usually in the 50's during this period, but in June and September, the temperature may be cooler - just above freezing -which means the snow remains skiable for a longer period. +Quitting at noon, however, isn't without its benefits at most European mountain resorts. At St. Moritz in Switzerland, for instance, skiing starts high on the Corvatsch Peak at 10,200 feet. A cable car from the base of the mountain starts operating at 8 A.M., and two T-bars on the glacier serve skiers. Returning to the valley for the afternoon, skiers can select tennis, golf, swimming, sailboarding, horseback riding, fishing or hiking to round out an active day. +Laax, another Swiss resort, has skiing on the Vorab 3,000 glacier. The ride up to the glacier can take 45 minutes or more on two trams and a gondola. There are two T-bars and one chairlift on the glacier, which has a large section for cross-country skiing. Then there's rafting on the Rhine and balloon rides in the valley. +Other Swiss resorts with glacier skiing are Crans/Montana, Les Dieblerets/Gstaad, Pontresina, Flims, Sass-Fee, Verbier and Zermatt. +Several Austrian glaciers are popular training sites for national ski teams. While ski team members practice slalom training on the steep pitches at Hintertux, Dachstein and Solden, recreational skiers enjoy the vast treeless and mostly intermediate terrain on these glaciers. +Many Austrian glaciers have a half-dozen or more lifts, including gondolas, to take skiers up the 1,000 to 2,000 vertical feet of skiing. Like the Swiss peaks, the glaciers in Austria are usually accessible by cable car, but a few can be reached by automobile as well. Aerial lifts - chairs, gondolas and trams - are anchored to solid rock adjacent to the glaciers, but T-bars, which don't require as critical alignments, are operated on the glacier itself. +Some of the other Austrian glacier skiing sites are Kaunertal, Pitztal, Stubaital, Styria and Carinthia. There is usually a colorful ski village nearby, such as Neustift, Mayrhofen or Schladming, with numerous sports activities for afternoon outings. In addition, the city of Innsbruck is less than an hour's drive or bus ride from several of the glacier skiing sites. +In France, Val d'Isere and Tignes have lift-served skiing at high altitudes, plus summer sports for afternoon activities. At Val d'Isere, skiing is off the Ponte du Montet at over 11,400 feet in height, and at Tignes it is on La Grande Motte at nearly 12,000 feet. Val Thorens offers two glaciers for summer skiing plus a variety of summer activities. Summer skiing is also available at La Plagne, Les 2 Alpes and Chamonix on the famous Mer de Glace Glacier. +In Italy, Courmayeur and Cervinia, which has a view of Zermatt, both offer summer skiing. The Passo Dello Stelvio, not far from Bormio, also has lift-served glacier skiing. +On this continent, Mount Hood, Ore., has snowfields above the 8,500-foot level that stay white through the summer. Besides the youngsters and adults attracted by more than 50 racing camps, which are organized and run independently from the resort, numerous recreational skiers stay at Timberline Lodge, located near the snowfields, and enjoy a day or several days of warm-weather skiing. +Last season, Blackcomb Mountain in British Columbia installed a T-bar on the Horstman Glacier that reached 7,500 feet. This year a second T-bar is being installed to a higher elevation and summer skiing will be expanded. The Canadian National Ski Team, junior skiers and adults interested in racing participate in training programs on this glacier. +Most of the resorts have ski equipment rental operations in villages at the base of the mountains and a few rent equipment from shops on the glacier itself. A few, however, do not have rentals in summer, so it is best to check with a local tourist office to determine if ski equipment is available. Also, for the best fit and greater comfort, it's wise to pack your own ski boots. Billy Kidd on Glacier Skiing +Bring plenty of suntan lotion, with a sun protection factor of 15 or stronger. +Wear very dark sunglasses with side protectors or ski goggles that have ultraviolet filtration. The sun reflecting off the snow can cause snow blindness. +Although it's warm on a glacier in summer, keep arms and legs covered while skiing. A fall on granular snow is like sliding on rough sandpaper and can cause nasty abrasions. +Dress in layers, with a light windbreaker on top. Carry a backpack with extra clothing for warmth in case of a sudden storm. +Bring juice, water or soda to drink during the day. Activity at high altitude can lead to dehydration. +Ski only on the marked runs or pistes. Going out of bounds can lead to serious misadventures. +ON YOUR OWN" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Piccard Steals Super-G Show From Zurbriggen and Tomba +LEAD: This was supposed to be the Mount Rushmore of Alpine skiing, where Pirmin Zurbriggen of Switzerland and Alberto Tomba of Italy would etch their profiles in the Olympic snow. But since Zurbriggen won the downhill last Monday with a spectacular run down Mount Allan, he and others among the world's more renowned male and female skiers have found the slick, icy slopes to be unforgiving. +This was supposed to be the Mount Rushmore of Alpine skiing, where Pirmin Zurbriggen of Switzerland and Alberto Tomba of Italy would etch their profiles in the Olympic snow. But since Zurbriggen won the downhill last Monday with a spectacular run down Mount Allan, he and others among the world's more renowned male and female skiers have found the slick, icy slopes to be unforgiving. +There were 100 skiers entered in the super giant slalom today, the first time the event has been held in the Olympics. Six did not start and 37 more failed to finish, either falling or missing a gate. +Tomba, the self-proclaimed messiah of skiing, almost fell rounding the third gate, looking like a freestyle skier as he made a 360-degree turn before coming to a stop. He decided to call it a day. Zurbriggen, the overall leader in World Cup points this season, finished fifth, skiing at a turtle's pace for him. More Surprises +Thus, once again the gold medal was won by someone who did not think he had a chance. Franck Piccard of France, a 23-year-old who is carrying the burden of being compared with his countryman Jean-Claude Killy, won the super giant slalom, racing under a self-imposed yellow caution flag over the treacherous course. Piccard finished in 1 minute 39.66 seconds. +Helmut Mayer of Austria was an equally surprising silver medalist, finishing in 1:40.96. He was entered in this event only after outskiing his teammate Gerhard Pfaffenbichler in qualifying runs the past two days. +In fact, no one expected Lars-Boerje Eriksson of Sweden, ranked 34th in the World Cup points standing, to win the bronze medal as he did in 1:41.08. All three medalists described their performances using words like 'surprised' and 'unexpected.' All also had plenty of healthy respect for Mount Allan. Austrian Woman Wins +In the women's combined, Anita Wachter of Austria won the gold medal after today's two runs of the combined slalom. Brigitte Oertli of Switzerland won her second silver, again upstaging her more illustrious teammates, Maria Walliser and Michela Figini. Walliser won the bronze medal in the combined. +Thus, there have now been four unexpected winners in the total of five events completed in the men's and women's Alpine competition. +The men's super giant slalom is basically a glorified downhill with more gates, run on the women's downhill course. The course is steeper and longer than the giant slalom and slalom, favoring downhillers more than technical skiers who can cut sharp edges around the gates. +'The first part was really steep,' Piccard said. 'I was a little afraid. I just skied the line, staying wide on the turns. I didn't think I could get a good time. I didn't look at the scoreboard when I finished. I was angry with myself.' +Piccard was the fifth starter. By the time he pushed off, Michael Eder of West Germany and Marc Girardelli of Luxembourg had already abandoned their runs. Markus Wasmeier of West Germany, one of the pre-race favorites, fell after Piccard's run. 'Brutal' Wind +Zurbriggen admitted he became tentative after observing that 5 of the top 14 skiers did not make it all the way down. 'I was disappointed but I knew that many had gone out of the race,' he said. 'So I did not take many risks. The course was not absolutely regular. The wind was brutal and it was very slippery. +'When the wind came, it took the silver medal. But Piccard was the best today.' +The Swiss skiers - male and female - were expected to dominate these Games. Now, they are doing more whining than winning, mostly about the wind. +As for Tomba, he was hoping for a top 10 finish in this race, his first of the Olympics. He is No. 2 in overall World Cup points, a specialist in the slalom and giant slalom. He offered no excuses, though. +'It was stupid mistakes,' he told Italian journalists. 'I can't say anything. The next time, I hope to arrive at the bottom with a result. Only speaking is not useful. I must perform, too.' +Piccard won a World Cup super G in Val-d'Isere, France, last year, but he is a giant slalom specialist, who also surprised ski experts when he won the bronze medal in the downhill last Monday. +He is from Albertville, the site of the next Winter Olympics. But it is too early to think about that, he said. Piccard also discouraged comparisons with Killy, a national hero who won three gold medals in the 1968 Olympics in Grenoble, France. 'I was only 4 years old,' he said. +He now has two medals in the three men's events, one more than Zurbriggen. 'He is the best skier in the world this winter,' Piccard said. 'I thought he would get three or four gold medals. I am surprised to be in front of him.' +Zurbriggen appeared to be in good spirits after today's race. Moni Julen, his friend, said she thought he was suffering a letdown after the downhill, the most glamorous Alpine event of the Olympics. 'He looked so much to the downhill,' she said. 'It was his first wish to win that. It's people who count medals; he never counts.' +'88 WINTER OLYMPICS" +False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,"TIME INC. CHIEF TO BE NAMED AS ENVOY TO AUSTRIA +LEAD: Henry Anatole Grunwald, the editor in chief of Time Inc., will be nominated by President Reagan to be ambassador to Austria, according to Administration officials. +Henry Anatole Grunwald, the editor in chief of Time Inc., will be nominated by President Reagan to be ambassador to Austria, according to Administration officials. +The publishing company announced yesterday that Mr. Grunwald, who is 64 years old and still speaks with the accent of his native Vienna, had retired as editor in chief of Time. +In April, Mr. Grunwald said he would retire in December after 40 years at Time, nine of them as editor in chief. Louis J. Slovinsky, a Time spokesman, said Mr. Grunwald's early retirement came 'because he is being considered for a Government position,' but he would not identify the position. A phone call to Mr. Grunwald's office was not returned yesterday afternoon. +Ronald S. Lauder, who has been ambassador to Austria since April 1986, has said he wished to resign the post, according to a State Department official who asked not to be named. The official said Mr. Lauder indicated he will vacate the post in order to run for the United States Senate seat now occupied by Daniel Patrick Moynihan, the New York Democrat who is up for re-election in 1988. Jason McManus Is Successor +Administration officials said the United States had asked the Austrian Government to accept Mr. Grunwald as ambassador. The officials said they expect the change to take place in October, after the required Senate approval of the nomination. +Jason McManus, who had been previously designated to take Mr. Grunwald's place, has assumed the position of editor in chief, giving him responsibility for such publications as Time, Life, Sports Illustrated, Money, People, and Fortune. +Mr. Grunwald, who is Jewish, fled Austria at the age of 17 to escape Nazi persecution. He is viewed as politically conservative, though he has not been identified with either policial party. +Administration officials said that Mr. Grunwald could be expected to bring a measure of stability to a diplomatic post that has traditionally been considered an undemanding political plum, but during the Reagan years has become first an embarrassment and later politically sensitive. +In 1983, Mr. Reagan appointed Helene A. von Damm, his personal secretary, to the ambassadorship, and she resigned in 1985 after a romance and marriage to a local hotelier. +Mr. Lauder, a businessman and the son of Estee Lauder, the founder of the large cosmetics firm, quickly became embroiled in the controversy over charges that Kurt Waldheim, Austria's President, committed war crimes during World War II. Mr. Lauder did not attend Mr. Waldheim's swearing-in ceremony. +A State Department official said that Mr. Lauder is leaving the post at his own request, and not at the urging of the Administration. +Mr. Grunwald will remain a member of Time's board of directors until the end of the year when Mr. McManus will take his place, according to yesterday's announcement. +Mr. Grunwald began at Time as a copy boy after graduating from New York University in 1944, a member of the Phi Beta Kappa honor society.

Schleper ended up distraught on the side of the course after missing a gate, putting her helmeted head on Coach John Ethen's shoulder as he rubbed her back. Koznick, never at her best in the biggest events, ended up sliding down the course's first steep pitch on her side instead of her skis after falling within seconds of the start. +Plenty of other women tried and failed, too, including the 18-year-old American Julia Mancuso, who straddled a gate in the first run and went skidding into a camera bag, abandoned by a photographer in a hurry to avoid a collision. +But when it was Janica Kostelic's turn to run the gantlet in St. Moritz for the second and final time, there was suddenly a calm about the place. Most slalom skiers, even at this level, look to be at the limit of their speed and talent, their knees bobbing and feet shifting at a furious pace. But if you could not see the split times, you would have sworn that Kostelic was taking her time. Other slalom skiers slash; she flows. +How could someone this much in control be nervous? And how could she have any doubt about the outcome, particularly with Kostelic's main rival, Anja Paerson, handicapped by a surprisingly poor time in the opening run? +At least for now, the 21-year-old Kostelic remains a sidecut above in this event, and when she finished in a combined time of 1 minute 39.55 seconds, the American Bode Miller was no longer the only skier with two gold medals in St. Moritz. +After winning the combined event last Monday with a sore right knee, Kostelic won the slalom today with a sore right shoulder, too. For a woman who professes to be no fan of world championships, she certainly skied through plenty of pain to take part. +'There are some things in life you prefer; I prefer the World Cup,' she said. 'But it's not that I didn't want this world championship medal.' +When she arrived here two weeks ago as the world's dominant female skier, Kostelic had never won a medal in the championships. Now she has two to go with the record four she won at last year's Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, where she won gold medals in the combined, the giant slalom and the slalom. +Many were betting against Janica today. When last seen in the finish area, she was hunched over and clutching her right shoulder on Thursday after smacking into a gate during the giant slalom race in which she finished 13th. Meanwhile, Paerson, the effervescent and physically imposing Swede, was winning the gold medal by a whopping, Kostelic-like margin of 1.55 seconds. +But doctors here determined Kostelic had only bruised her shoulder and, though they have yet to determine precisely why her right knee is sore, she decided to start anyway. +That came as no surprise to some of Kostelic's competitors, who think she has been exaggerating her aches, pains and limp. +Kostelic is not amused, and she certainly did not fake the major right knee injury she sustained during downhill training in St. Moritz in 1999, an injury that threatened her career and required reconstructive surgery. Nor did she fake the left knee pain that required three minor operations in 2001. +'It's not a big deal,' she said. 'But I don't think it's very nice when some girls think that I'm not injured.' +In the seven World Cup slaloms this season, Kostelic has won four, Paerson three, and Paerson showed why in the second run. She stormed back to record the fastest time, in part because her father, Anders Paerson, who also coaches the Swedish technical skiers, had been picked in a random draw to set the course. +But she could not storm all the way back to a medal, finishing fourth, as 21-year-old Marlies Schild of Austria took the silver medal with a combined time of 1:40.18 and Schild's 19-year-old teammate, Nicole Hosp, took the bronze medal in 1:40.46. Hosp also won a silver medal in the combined event. +But Kostelic's two medals here were of a more spectacular color, and today's gold came in front of a crowd of about 13,000 that included the for-now-retired Swiss tennis star Martina Hingis, who could later be seen skiing down to the town of St. Moritz at a much slower pace than a Kostelic. +SKIING" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"An Encouraging Sign for Killy and France +Jean-Claude Killy of France has mislaid none of the grace and sportsmanship that made him the greatest ski racer of his time. When he refers to participants in the Alpine skiing world championships, which take place in odd-numbered years, he sometimes refers to them as 'the champions.' +For Killy, who is organizing the next world championships in his hometown, Val d'Isère, the term sometimes seems to apply to every competitor, not only the race winners like Mario Matt of Austria, who took the men's slalom title Saturday. +Cynics would say that it is a necessary adjustment of standards for supporters of the French ski team, which has fallen on hard times 40 years after Killy swept the Olympic gold medals at the 1968 Winter Games in Grenoble, France. +A little relief came Saturday as Jean-Baptiste Grange finished third, collecting the French team's first medal of the championships, which end with a team event Sunday. +Matt finished the two-run slalom race in 1 minute 57.33 seconds, an astonishing 1.81 seconds ahead of Manfred Moelgg of Italy. Grange was another 0.40 behind Moelgg. +'It hasn't been so much success for us at the world championships, although we did win a race at the Olympics,' said Grange, referring to his teammate Antoine Deneriaz's victory in the men's downhill last year in Turin, Italy. +The only American to complete Saturday's race was Tim Jitloff, a wide-eyed 22-year-old rookie from Reno, Nev., who finished last after hiking to reach a gate he had missed. Three of his teammates -- Bode Miller, Jimmy Cochran and Ted Ligety, the Olympic combined champion -- were among the 50 racers who failed to finish after 74 had started. +It was the first time since 1999 that the United States men failed to collect a world championship medal. +'It was a tricky hill,' Jitloff said of Saturday's course. 'A lot of terrain changes, and the light was bad.' +Miller, who reportedly hurt his knee Saturday, was shut out of the medals. In the five events he entered, he was 24th, 6th, 7th, 15th and D.N.F. -- did not finish. He will not race the team event. Nor will Lindsey Kildow and Julia Mancuso, the women who collected the United States' three medals here. Mancuso is taking a long-planned break, but Kildow injured her knee in training Thursday, and her season is imperiled. +Miller's performance echoes his strikeout at the 2006 Olympics in Turin. Then as now, Miller had moments of athletic genius -- Killy's description -- which amplified his failure to successfully defend his world titles against less-talented racers. +It is difficult to know what Miller is thinking because he is the only racer who refuses to participate in routine interviews at the finish line. +Matt's margin of victory was the third biggest in the history of men's slalom at the world championships. The record came on the same mountain in 1954, when Stein Eriksen of Norway won by 5.77 seconds. That was another time, when skiers in short leather boots often drew their skis into a conservative snowplow position to slow down. +The man who ushered ski racing into the modern era was Killy. His goal is to interest the French in ski racing again, and he announced this week that the 2009 championship races would be free for all spectators. +'Improving our racers is the key to our success; we know that,' said Killy, who steered what he called modest financial support from his organizing committee to the French team. 'It has to be a very festive 15 days.' +The race will feature the resurrection of the one of the most dramatic downhills in the world, the 1992 Olympic course, which sends racers shooting through a narrow gap in a rocky outcropping. Killy said that he hoped to find a way to include racers from nontraditional ski nations like Ghana and Senegal, who boycotted races this week after arriving to find new qualification rules in place. +'We have got to find a way to keep everybody in play,' Killy said.

Golan Levin already knows. In fact, he will be making the calls. +Mr. Levin is the creator of 'Dialtones: A Telesymphony,' a musical composition for 200 cell phones. To play the 'instruments,' which are held by audience members, Mr. Levin will dial their numbers from an onstage computer to produce carefully orchestrated patterns of sound. +'Dialtones' will receive its premiere on Sept. 2 during an electronic arts festival in Linz, Austria. In -- you guessed it -- a telephone interview from the Ars Electronica Center in Linz, where he is an artist in residence, Mr. Levin said the 30-minute work was inspired by society's love-hate relationship with the increasingly ubiquitous cell phone. +'Everyone has one, yet we don't like it when they ring,' said Mr. Levin, a 29-year-old composer and software engineer who recently completed a master's degree at the Media Lab of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. 'Part of the motivation is to make a sacred space for the enjoyment of these phones.' +At a time when hand-held cell phones have been banned from cars in some areas and cultural events are often preceded by a caution against them, Mr. Levin, a Staten Island native, says he hopes to alter the phones' image by showing that they can make art as well as noise. +In Linz, concertgoers who want to double as performers will have to register their cell-phone numbers before the event, and some will be asked to install special ringer tones on their phones. Inside the hall, they will be assigned positions in a 20-by-10 array of seats that corresponds with a grid on Mr. Levin's computer screen. By clicking on the grid, Mr. Levin will issue dialing commands to phones at those locations in the audience, making them ring in a range of tones, from a few seconds to four minutes -- provided audience members heed instructions and don't answer their phones. +Some phones will warble melodies, while others may burble rhythmically. Certain passages will sound like birds, Mr. Levin said, 'as much as you can get a bunch of cell phones to sound like a twittering jungle.' +Commands sent to a sequence of adjacent rows will generate waves of sound. To augment the phones' limited three-octave range with bass tones, Mr. Levin will amplify the vibrations of several units. His ring cycle will conclude with a crescendo of 60 phones singing simultaneously. +Mr. Levin will have to contend with the delay between the time he triggers a signal and when its sound is heard. Even though he will have direct access to the switching network of Mobilkom Austria, a cell-phone service provider, he expects delays to vary from three to six seconds. ''It means we cannot do anything that is extremely rhythmic in a rock music kind of way,' he said. +Audio samples from 'Dialtones' rehearsals can be found at www .flong.com/telesymphony. Mr. Levin said he would add video clips from the premiere. +In staging the work, Mr. Levin is using a theatrical touch that will hearten anyone who has had a concert interrupted by the shrill chirp of a cell phone. As each phone rings, an overhead spotlight will shine on the head of the call's recipient. An onstage mirror will let audience members watch the light show, which is in effect the work's musical score rendered large as life. +The idea of turning cell phones into musical instruments is very much in the air these days. In June, an Israeli orchestra played a classical medley in which a cell phone introduced themes by Bach, Mozart and Rossini. On Aug. 25, a minutelong piece for seven phones is to be performed at a Berlin trade show. +For Mr. Levin, such developments ring true. 'I'm just responding to the sounds in my own environment,' he said. 'That's what any composer does.'" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Two Golds, One Stunning Crash: Now Maier Is Fast and Familiar +Without the crash, Americans would have cared very little about Hermann Maier. +Without the crash, he would have been just another fast and faceless Alpine villager who won multiple Olympic gold medals before returning home to a lifetime of testimonial dinners in his native Austria and a lifetime of fame on the World Cup circuit, which is about as popular in the United States as college football is in Europe. +Anyone remember what Germany's Markus Wasmeier looks like? He won two golds in Lillehammer, Norway, just four years ago. +But somewhere between the moment Maier soared into midair in a most compromising position and landed on his helmet at a very high speed, people who don't know a parabolic ski from ginseng tea began to take a special interest in this former bricklayer. When he came back like some sort of Lazarus on snow to win the super-G and the giant slalom in convincing fashion, suddenly he was fast but no longer faceless. +Strangers noticed the jutting chin, the blond stubble on his face, the broad nose that looks as if it belongs to a boxer instead of a ski racer. +Not that Maier had wanted it this way. 'If you ask me, it would have been better to get famous for winning the gold medal in the downhill,' he said. +Maier has not watched his crash again on video, and he has no plans to screen it until after the World Cup finals in Crans Montana, Switzerland, in mid-March. +'I think it's better maybe for the mental to not look at it before the next downhill in Kvitfjell,' he said today after he skied and won his last Olympic race in Japan. +For those who have watched the crash again and again, it is clear that Maier, who had not fallen all season, was simply too bold. The downhill champion Jean-Luc Cretier, who started just before him, essentially stood up in his skis 14 seconds into his winning run in order to negotiate the right-hand turn in the narrow chute leading to the lip that made the Austrian flip. Fourteen seconds; 15 seconds into his run, Maier was still in full tuck, and as he schussed into the chute, he hit a small bump that threw him slightly into the air. +By the time he landed, he was off balance and moving too rapidly, and though he tried a late desperation turn, his skis went into a slight depression just before the lip, which sent him exploding skyward off it. +'Other skiers were letting their skis slide through that turn, but his skis were fully loaded,' said the former American downhiller Steve Porino. 'The pressure had to release somehow. If he had been going 10 miles per hour slower, he could have turned in the air. But at that speed, he just went shooting off into space.' +And cartwheeling through two safety nets and out of the start list for the combined downhill later that day because of a sprained right knee and bruises on his left shoulder and sternum. It could have been worse, much worse, but his great escape was not only a question of luck. It was also a question of preparation: Austria's top skiers pay close attention to flexibility and, said their team coach, Werner Margreiter, all can do a full split. +But Margreiter said: 'You must respect physics. I think Hermann, for the first time, found out that he cannot just risk anything without accepting some natural laws. You have to deal with gravity and other forces, and if you push too far, it can be dangerous.' +It is a testimony to the significant gap between Maier and his peers that he was able to win the super-G on Monday and giant slalom today despite the psychological and physical aftershocks of that fall. +'After having survived such a crash, it is like being born again,' Maier said. 'These two gold medals probably mean more because of it.' +He is assured of becoming the first Austrian man since Karl Schranz in 1970 to win the overall World Cup title. In Japan, he became the first Austrian man since Toni Sailer in 1956 to win multiple gold medals in a Winter Olympics. (Sailer won three.) +'I was half the Herminator after the super-G; three-fourths after the first run of the giant slalom and all the way back after the second run,' he said. 'You can call me the Herminator again.' +He looked like himself on today's second run, with his eyes bulging, teeth bared and edges flashing. Maier skied the giant slalom the way the last true Austrian ski hero, Franz Klammer, the 1976 Olympic champion, once skied the downhill: recklessly, almost disdainfully. +'Maier eats the course,' said Schranz, the last true Austrian ski hero before Klammer. 'And his technique is really good, and he is lower down than all the others. You can afford to be lower down only if you are very strong.' +The strength is a fairly recent acquisition. When Maier was 15 and forced to stop skiing because of sore knees caused by a growth spurt, he said his schoolmate and current teammate, Christian Mayer, weighed 176 pounds while he weighed 110. +'It was a problem when it was windy,' cracked the man who now weighs 198 pounds, 'and it was also not so easy to get through the gates.' +With his rugged features and crooked, slightly menacing teeth, Maier looks like someone you would not want to meet on a dark slalom run. But that appearance is deceptive. He is full of wit, whether he is speaking his native German or the very respectable English he learned teaching Scandinavians how to ski in his home village of Flachau. But the most intriguing thing about Maier is his curiosity and acute sense of observation. +Interview him, and he asks you a string of questions about your newspaper and your objectives (not a common occurrence with star athletes). Put him on a super-G course for inspection and he pushes the legal limit. (He nearly drew a protest in Schladming, Austria, last month because he was the last one on the hill.) Put him in the midst of a crowd of Japanese volunteers and he poses pleasantly for photographs and then somehow notices a pair of sunglasses lying half-buried in the snow underneath a chair. +'He seems a very hang-loose guy on the outside, but inside he is concentrated,' said his coach, Anton Geiger. 'He's a little bit like Alberto Tomba that way. He's making jokes, but he's focused.' +Maier has been focused on being an Olympic champion since he was 8. 'I was the favorite in four disciplines here,' he said, referring to the downhill, super-G, giant slalom and combined. 'I won in all of them on the World Cup, and so it was a lot of pressure. But after the crash, I fell on my head and it was a little bit better. It somehow released the pressure.' +Maier was smiling that crooked smile again, and before long he was working his way toward the door. +THE XVIII WINTER GAMES: ALPINE SKIING" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Magic Eludes Miller as Reichelt Wins the World Cup Super-G +Bode Miller's attempt to recreate the racing magic he exhibited at last year's World Cup event in Beaver Creek lasted 38 seconds on the first day of competition Thursday as he missed a gate and skied off the super-G course. Miller, as usual, was skiing the most aggressive line on the steep top portion of the challenging course and paid for it, skidding so wide on a left-to-right turn that he had little chance of recovering to make the next gate. +Miller was one of many who had trouble with the turn at the same gate, but perhaps no one attacked it with the same fervor. About 17 seconds earlier, Miller went through the first timed interval on the course faster than every racer but one, Didier Cuche of Switzerland, who also did not finish the race. +In four World Cup races this season, Miller has finished 2nd, 18th, 22nd and been disqualified. A year ago, Miller won the first three races and was second in the fourth. He then won the fifth race of the year, the downhill at Beaver Creek. +In snowy conditions with high winds Thursday, it seemed an advantage to have an early starting position. The winner, Hannes Reichelt of Austria, was the seventh skier on the course, which he completed in 1 minute 17.33 seconds. Miller started 30th, last among the top racers. The start order is determined by using the world rankings in reverse order, beginning with the top 30 racers. +Miller's teammate Daron Rahlves started 28th and battled the winds at the top of the course to post a gutsy, respectable time and finish in fifth place. Hermann Maier of Austria was eighth. +Erik Guay of Canada placed second, four-hundredths of a second behind Reichelt. The Austrian Matthias Lanzinger was third in 1:17.49. +Miller, the reigning super-G and overall World Cup champion, did not come to the finish area after his run and was not available to reporters. But one of his coaches with the United States men's team, John McBride, said that Miller had trouble seeing through his goggles in the start house. Rahlves said he had similar problems with moisture, which can freeze on the goggle lens. +'On the course, Bode made a tactical error,' McBride said. 'I guess he was looking through the bottom of his goggles, where he could see, and he approached that important turn a little indecisive on when to start the turn. You don't have time like that -- not on this course.' +Rahlves, and several other racers, said the conditions at the top were treacherous. +'It was nasty up there, to say the least,' Rahlves said. 'Visibility was almost zero and the wind was going sideways.' +Benjamin Raich of Austria said he was shocked the race was run. +'We have to accept these results,' Raich, who finished 18th, said. 'But this was not very fair. You couldn't see and the wind gusts were changing.' +Rahlves said he had lost speed at the same gate that sent Miller off course. +'It's a tough turn, and we were told that before we got in the gate,' Rahlves said. 'But there was also soft snow above and below that turn that could throw you off, too, so you had to be careful regardless. It was a blind gate, a good, tough turn.' +Of Miller, Rahlves said, 'He was going too straight in there, too direct.' +Rahlves, who watched Miller's run on a giant video screen at the finish line, said, 'Once he got low and away from that left-foot turn, Bode had no chance.' +It was Reichelt's first World Cup victory of his career. Reichelt is returning to ski racing from a serious knee injury last season, when he tore knee ligaments and sustained bone damage. +'I skied the top today just fast enough,' Reichelt said. 'And that was important because it allowed me to carry my speed through the flat section. It was great to get to the bottom and see my name at the top of the leader board. It was great to see it there at the end of the race.' +With more snow in the forecast for Beaver Creek on Thursday night and through the weekend, there were concerns that Friday's downhill might not be run as scheduled. +'I don't even want to think of that,' Rahlves said. 'That's too fun of a race to lose. It's a highlight of the year.'" +False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Grunwald's Delicate Deliberations on Austria +LEAD: Relations between the United States and Austria, until several years ago a matter of such calm orderliness as to be virtually ignored in the press, are about to take a fresh turn in the spotlight with the selection of Henry A. Grunwald as the new United States Ambassador. +Relations between the United States and Austria, until several years ago a matter of such calm orderliness as to be virtually ignored in the press, are about to take a fresh turn in the spotlight with the selection of Henry A. Grunwald as the new United States Ambassador. +Mr. Grunwald, who resigned Monday as editor in chief of Time Inc., is a Jewish native of Vienna who fled the Nazis in 1940, a fact that as recently as 1985 would have drawn only a polite mention in a profile of a future ambassador to Austria. +In the meantime, however, Kurt Waldheim, the Austrian who had served as Secretary General of the United Nations, ran for the presidency of his country. Early in 1986, the Austrian magazine Profil and then The New York Times published accounts based on records showing that in World War II Mr. Waldheim served as an officer in Nazi Army units that had executed Yugoslav partisans, sent Yugoslav civilians to forced labor camps and rounded up Jews in Salonika for deportation to death camps. Barred From the U.S. In his autobiography and campaign literature Mr. Waldheim skipped over or covered up this activity. When the truth became known, an outcry arose among Jews here and elsewhere. +The Justice Department began an inquiry that concluded last April with the placement of Mr. Waldheim, by then the President of Austria, on a list of people barred from entering the United States because of links to participation in 'activities amounting to persecution' of Jews and others. Mr. Waldheim has not been accused of physically taking part in deportations or executions. +Other countries have also said that Mr. Waldheim would not be welcome. +The Waldheim affair has seriously complicated Austria's otherwise friendly relations with the United States, and thus the choice of a new ambassador to Vienna acquired a sensitivity rare in the postwar era. +In Austria today, the current Ambassador, Ronald S. Lauder, announced his intention to resign, as he indicated he would months ago. +As it always does when such posts open up, the State Department chose one of its own, a career Foreign Service officer, as its candidate for posting to the former imperial capital on the Danube. +But the department's hopes were not high because the last seven ambassadors to Austria have been 'political' appointees chosen for their loyalty to a President and not as career professionals. They included a lawyer, an investor, a builder, a business executive, a real-estate developer, a former personal secretary to President Reagan and a cosmetics magnate. The last three, appointed by President Reagan, were Theodore E. Cummings, the real-estate executive; Helene A. von Damm, the secretary, and Ronald S. Lauder, son of Estee Lauder. +So it was that no one in Foggy Bottom was astonished when it became known that the White House personnel office had approached Mr. Grunwald. President Reagan's spokesman, Marlin Fitzwater, acknowledged today that although no announcement was being made, Mr. Grunwald was indeed 'undergoing background clearance' by the Federal Bureau of Investigation for a high-level Government position. +The prospect of a Jew's presenting his diplomatic credentials to President Waldheim for official accreditation as the United States Ambassador to the Government of Austria unsettled Mr. Grunwald enough to cause him to consult not only old friends but also several American Jewish spokesmen. 'He wrestled with it,' said one friend Mr. Grunwald asked for advice, former Ambassador Sol Linowitz. +A senior Administration official said today that Mr. Grunwald, 64 years old, 'had conversations with a variety of Jewish leaders before he decided to go forward' because he was concerned that Jews might oppose his selection. No Outrage +'They turned out not to be outraged,' the official said of the Jewish leaders. +'There is another side to this coin,' he added. 'After all, it means another Jew is being appointed in Vienna.' He was alluding to Ambassador Lauder, whose Jewish grandparents emigrated from the Austro-Hungarian Empire at the turn of the century. +A high-ranking State Department official said with regard to Mr. Waldheim: 'We distinguish between Waldheim as an individual and Waldheim as the President of Austria. At a social event it might be different, but we have to continue to deal with Austria and deal with the President of a friendly country.' +The Jewish spokesmen consulted by Mr. Grunwald apparently see this the same way. +Abraham H. Foxman, national director of the Anti-Defmation League of B'nai B'rith, said: 'I'm proud of this appointment, proud that the United States decided, with Waldheim as President, to send a Jewish ambassador, a Jewish refugee, as Ambassador. I hope they'll receive him as an American, not a Jew or a refugee.' +As for Mr. Grunwald's presenting credentials to President Waldheim, Mr. Foxman said: 'It may be difficult for any Jew to do it, but he is representing his country, and the opportunities transcend the difficulty. It is worth the moment of discomfort.' +Mark Tannenbaum, director of international relations of the American Jewish Committee, said of the Grunwald choice: 'This is a very important and positive development. We've been very concerned about the strain that developed between the United States and Austria, and Austria and Israel, over Waldheim.' +'Grunwald is clearly a person of first-rank intellect and abilities,' Mr. Tannenbaum continued. 'Because he is a Jew born in Vienna, he has no illusions about realities in Austria. And I think he can help Austria overcome delusions of victimization and encourage them to understand themselves as they are. +'We welcome the decision to appoint him. The United States hasn't helped Austria face up to its past. Previous ambassadors were chosen primarily for political reasons, for their large contributions to campaigns. This hasn't helped Austria feel good about itself. It has reinforced a feeling there that they don't matter, that Austria is an ambassadorial dumping ground. This appointment - a man of quality and enormous talent - will help reverse this image.' +Reached in Los Angeles, Rabbi Marvin Hier, dean of the Simon Wiesenthal Center, struck a more skeptical note, saying: 'Grunwald will have to walk a very tight rope between representing his heritage versus his role as a representative of the U.S. Government. At present it would be inappropriate for Grunwald to meet officially with Waldheim.' +Mr. Grunwald's selection was hailed by former United States Government officials involved with Austrian affairs over many years. +Philip M. Kaiser, who was Ambassador to Vienna from 1980 to 1981, said of Mr. Grunwald, 'It's a first-class choice. His knowledge of Austria must be rather unique. It's a real compliment.' +Walter R. Roberts, a Vienna native who served as an information specialist for the United States Government for four decades, also praised the Grunwald selection. Mr. Roberts said of his fellow Jews from Austria: 'The attitude of former Austrians is a highly emotional, personal one. Some say, 'I'm never going to visit it again as long as I live.' Others say the Nazi era was an aberration that happened only because the Germans took over in 1938,' and so they do go back. I am sort of in the middle.' A Graduation Ceremony +Mr. Roberts happened to be in Vienna in June 1986 a few days after Mr. Waldheim won election to the presidency, and was watching a television program about a graduation ceremony at a central Vienna high school. To his surprise about eight former pupils were on hand to receive honorary diplomas. All were former Austrian Jews who had been unable to receive their diplomas because they had fled Nazi rule. One of them was Henry A. Grunwald, Mr. Roberts reported. He added that the school had invited more than 20 such former Jewish pupils to receive honarary diplomas. 'But only seven or eight like Grunwald showed up,' he said. +As for Mr. Grunwald's Austrian connections - he is a member of the American Austrian Foundation -Mr. Roberts remarked that his father, Alfred Grunwald, was librettist for the great Austro-Hungarian composer of operettas, Emerich Kalman, and wrote the words to some of the songs of 'The Countess Maritza' and 'The Circus Princess.' +One can't get much closer to the Blue Danube than that. +WASHINGTON TALK: SELECTION OF AN AMBASSADOR" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Après-Ski, It's Bottoms Up: Down the Hill, to the Bar +If Bode Miller wanted to forget about the idea of drunken skiing this week, he should have gone anywhere but Kitzbühel, the medieval Tyrolean town that over the next three days will play host to one of the biggest parties in the sporting world. +But of course Miller never leaves the Alpine skiing World Cup, which has come to Kitzbühel for three races, including the Hahnenkamm downhill on Saturday -- the most prestigious and dangerous ski race in the world. Miller's teammate Daron Rahlves is the favorite. +In recent years, as many as 100,000 fans have packed into this town of 8,000 for the three days of racing, which begins Friday, and most of them have disregarded the recent ban on schnapps during the races. Many will not bother to find hotel rooms, but instead will go from the downhill course to the pubs, stay up all night, and return to the mountainside for the slalom Sunday. +This is the backdrop for Miller and the American men's ski team as they try to distance themselves from Miller's quote heard around the world: 'If you ever tried to ski when you're wasted, it's not easy.' +Miller delivered that line on '60 Minutes' on Jan. 8, and the CBS advance news release promoting the segment turned his words into a miniscandal a few weeks before the opening of the Winter Games in Turin, Italy. +'Why make that such a big story and not make a bigger story of the success we've all had?' said Rahlves, who has won three World Cup downhills this year and is the runaway favorite for the Olympic race. +But as the general public in the United States is discovering an excellent ski team (ranked second behind the seemingly invincible Austrians), it is also discovering that ski racing's deep drinking culture is alive and well, in part a product of a schedule that keeps the racers on the road 250 days a year, mostly in Europe. +And nowhere is the sport's relationship with alcohol on more prominent display than in Kitzbühel on one Saturday night each season when the world's top racers finish the terrifying Streif course -- an unrelenting icy staircase -- and head to the jam-packed Londoner pub, where they get behind the bar and spend the entire night pouring beers and celebrating because their limbs are still attached. +'Franz Klammer always said that if you come down alive from the Streif, then you're entitled to have a party,' said Nina Gunnell, whose father, Rik, founded the Londoner in 1976. +'It's always been like that,' Rahlves said. 'That's how it is. It's part of the sport. Why downplay it?' +The Canadian ski team started the custom, which over 30 years has evolved into an initiation rite for World Cup downhillers. Not until they finish the course are they allowed to take a turn at the taps. Most of the beer they pour (and Gunnell has ordered 140 kegs for this weekend) ends up flying through the steamy air, landing on the racers' fan clubs. +'That's what sometimes people misunderstand is that were not drinking it, were just throwing it on each other,' Gunnell said. She maintains that the Londoner experience is a healthy way to unwind after the monthlong buildup to the Streif, which comes at the end of a string of important downhills. +Rahlves and his pals, particularly the North Americans, seem to cherish the Londoner tradition. 'We're over here for six months,' said Manny Osborne-Paradis of Canada, a Kitzbühel rookie hoping to tend bar Saturday. 'You gotta let loose a little bit. It's not like we can go home between each race and see our families.' +Said Christin Cooper, the 1984 Olympic silver medalist in the giant slalom: 'People love the image of these colorful characters that are kind of wild, so does the F.I.S. and so do sponsors and so does the U.S. Ski Team. What goes along with that is that your whole life has to be dedicated to a hard-charging way of life.' Cooper was referring to the international body that governs skiing, the Fédération Internationale de Ski. +But the party at the Londoner has been costly for American skiing. In 1997, the Olympic gold medalist Tommy Moe was sidelined for most of the season after cutting his thumb on broken glass while trying to jump over the bar. In 2004, Rahlves got so sick afterward that he lost his advantage in the downhill standings. Rahlves had the flu, but he admitted that the Londoner experience had made him vulnerable, and made him commit afterward to reducing his in-season drinking. +That was a tactical decision, not a public-relations move to satisfy the scolds. The coaches and the administrators who oversee the American men's team are the first to admit they keep the skiers on a looser leash than some of the other top teams, like the Austrians. They say that many of their athletes, including Miller, are fiercely independent and would not accept a rigid structure. +'We're trying our hardest to have a good time and manage the workload and focus on the long, long, long blocks of time on the road,' Phil McNichol, the coach of the United States men's team, suggested in an interview in November. 'It's a balancing act because it doesn't take much to step over the line.' +Rahlves resented the way Miller was attacked for talking about drinking. It's important to note that Miller never suggested he drank before a downhill, the race where the skiers reach speeds of more than 90 miles an hour. +'We all downplay it to be a little more professional, but everybody goes out and has fun,' said Rahlves, who tastes a shot of hypocrisy in the '60 Minutes' affair. 'Everybody knows what Hermann does, and that's way worse than Bode's ever gone.' Rahlves was referring to the Austrian star Hermann Maier. +Rahlves might be right about Maier, who, at the peak of his powers, in 1998, was arrested in Aspen, Colo., after capping a long evening by stealing a car, a bicycle and a forklift in quick succession. +But the Austrian team is generally more discreet about its nocturnal habits, in part because it is so competitive and there is not much room for rebellion. 'We have to keep our spot on the team,' said Fritz Strobl of Austria, the reigning Olympic downhill champion. +It is not unheard of for journalists to walk into a bar past midnight in a town holding a World Cup event and find the Austrian or Swiss ski team hunkering over tall mugs of beer as they sing their country's somber farming songs. +But because the Alpine World Cup takes place in much more intimate settings than American professional sports, a nondisclosure pact seems to have developed between athletes and the skiing news media. +'I suppose you could call it an unspoken code that ski reporters tend not to write about the drinking,' Steve Porino, a former World Cup downhiller who now is a commentator for the Outdoor Life Network, said in an e-mail message. +There are exceptions to the nondisclosure agreement. That is where Miller comes in. Long before the '60 Minutes' story, Miller was trying to tip that glass over, frankly and colorfully discussing his nightlife with reporters. +Few used their pens in 2004, when Miller won a World Cup slalom in St. Anton, Austria. He arrived at the postrace news conference to find, sitting beside the microphone, a tall glass of beer from the race sponsor, Gösser. +Miller drank it, but a young woman from the organizing committee quickly brought out a second glass. As soon as he had exhausted his questioners and the second drink, he was directed to the V.I.P. tent, where the Austrian skiing icon Karl Schranz had requested his presence. +Schranz is something like royalty in St. Anton, so Miller had little choice but to oblige, even though he was still wearing the Lycra speed suit that had been drenched with Champagne during his podium celebration. It was hard for anyone watching the proceedings to fault Miller for tipsiness when the sport was throwing so much booze at him, literally. +And it was hard for Miller not to accept the invitation. After all, Schranz had even offered to buy him a beer. +OLYMPICS" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"After a Sleepless Night, Dorfmeister Takes Gold and Kildow Ties for 8th +Neither Lindsey Kildow nor her fellow competitor Michaela Dorfmeister slept much on the eve of the women's Olympic downhill Wednesday. Each was kept awake by a nightmare. +Kildow saw herself flying through the air, out of control, uncertain of her landing and the consequences. Dorfmeister saw herself eight years ago, an Olympic champion in waiting. And then, still waiting, and waiting. +By the end of the downhill competition, Kildow and Dorfmeister had done much to calm their subconscious, to erase bad Olympic memories and to reconcile the path of their ski-racing careers. +A good night's sleep may be next. +Kildow, of Vail, Colo., skied roughly 48 hours after a frightening crash in training, and though her form was clearly stilted and stiff, she completed the course in a tie for eighth place. +'It was important for me to come out and try,' said Kildow, who was released from a hospital Tuesday and took anti-inflammatory drugs to combat back pain. 'There was something to prove. When you've worked so hard to get here, you can't just quit. I wanted to win a medal today, but I still have other chances. Don't give up on me yet.' +Dorfmeister, an Austrian who is one of the most decorated female skiers of her generation, finally won an Olympic gold medal, a prize she lost at the 1998 Nagano Olympics by one-hundredth of a second. +The 32-year-old Dorfmeister, who will retire at the end of this season, cradled her gold medal on the medal podium, covering her face to obscure her tears. +'It is like a dream,' Dorfmeister said through an interpreter. 'I was under so much pressure. When you get so close to winning, you can wonder if it will ever happen again. But that elusive Olympic medal was probably the thing that kept me skiing.' +Dorfmeister turned in the most proficient, seamless run on the treacherous, bumpy Fraiteve Olympique racecourse. She posted a time of 1 minute 56.49 seconds, a significant 37-hundredths of a second ahead of the second-place finisher, Martina Schild of Switzerland. +Anja Paerson of Sweden, the defending World Cup overall champion, nearly won with a stirring late run, but she crossed her skis in the last technical section, scrambled to recover and had to settle for the bronze medal, her third Olympic medal. +The defending Olympic champion, Carole Montillet-Carles of France, also returned from a horrific crash in Monday's training. Battling rib, back and facial injuries, Montillet-Carles finished 28th. Missing from the field was the multiple Olympic medalist Janica Kostelic of Croatia, who withdrew with an illness. +In 1998, Dorfmeister lost the Olympic downhill to Picabo Street of the United States by the smallest possible margin. Although she won two world championship titles shortly thereafter and an overall World Cup championship, she entered four events at the Salt Lake Olympics four years ago without claiming a medal. +'I was awfully disappointed by the 2002 Olympics,' Dorfmeister said. 'I felt that should have been a good Winter Games for me, and it was instead a poor memory.' +Dorfmeister's problems at the 2002 Games were no small setback in skiing-mad Austria. No Austrian woman had won the Olympic downhill since 1980, and as Dorfmeister pressed on in the four years leading up to the Turin Games, expectations grew again. There was talk, in fact, of the Austrians sweeping the downhill. +But only Dorfmeister skied her best among the Austrians on Wednesday. +'To be honest, I have been more relaxed since I announced that I would not ski after this year,' Dorfmeister said. 'I knew it was my goal to win at the Olympics and I felt the pressure, but I felt ready for the consequences. I didn't sleep for the last two days, but riding the lift up today, I said, 'This is the day I'll win.' ' +Kildow, meanwhile, said she raced Wednesday at about 70 percent of her normal ability. She finished 1.29 seconds behind Dorfmeister, tied with Alexandra Meissnitzer of Austria. +'My back was very painful, and I didn't have very good range of motion,' said Kildow, who came into the race as the world's second-ranked downhiller. Dorfmeister is first. 'But not racing was never an option. I was frustrated I couldn't go faster, but it's weird going from a hospital bed to the start gate.' +Kildow, 21, said she had not seen the video of her crash and did not plan to watch it any time soon. +'I saw or felt it in my mind over and over,' she said. 'It kept me up, as did the pain in my back. In the course today, I was worried about my body handling the forces, but I could do that. In that bumpy section with the rollers where I crashed, I was a little more conservative.' +Her boyfriend, Thomas Vonn, a former United States ski team racer, said that among the goals for the day was finishing. 'It was important to be out here again,' Vonn said. +Kildow is entered in Friday's combined, an event that is one downhill run combined with the times of two slalom runs. The slalom requires dozens of rapid turns, putting a lot of torque on a skier's midsection, and Kildow conceded that her back might not be fit enough to participate. But she said she was hopeful for continued improvement and still planned to enter the combined. +On Sunday, she has the super-G competition, which is closer to the downhill in style and technique. She is also scheduled to compete in the slalom and the giant slalom next week. +'I got a top-10 finish today, and that's still pretty good,' Kildow said. 'My back doesn't feel too good right now, but there's time. I need the rest. Over all, if I think about it, I have to be glad to be here right now.' +2006 OLYMPIC WINTER GAMES -- ALPINE SKIING: WOMEN'S DOWNHILL" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Agassi a Winnner But Chang Beaten +LEAD: On a day of few surprises on the red clay court of Prater Stadium, the United States and Austria stood even at one match each after the first-day singles in the Davis Cup semifinals. +On a day of few surprises on the red clay court of Prater Stadium, the United States and Austria stood even at one match each after the first-day singles in the Davis Cup semifinals. +Thomas Muster, playing in the No. 1 spot for the Austrians, gave his team the first point by defeating Michael Chang, 4-6, 6-2, 6-2, 6-4 in just under two hours on a cloudy day with intermittent sprinkles of rain. +The No. 1 American, Andre Agassi, using the one-two punch of a strategically placed kick serve and punishing ground strokes, overwhelmed Horst Skoff in the second match, 7-6, 6-0, 6-1. +The Americans will be relying on their doubles team of Rick Leach and Jim Pugh in Saturday's only action. They will face Muster and Alex Antonitsch in what will be a tough match for the Americans. +The Big Switch +In the reverse singles on Sunday, which will decide which country advances to the championship against either Australia or Argentina on Nov. 30-Dec. 2, Agassi will open against Muster and Chang will face Skoff. +Leach and Pugh are 2-0 in Davis Cup play, but after winning Wimbledon, they had a lackluster summer, losing in the first round of the United States Open. Muster and Antonitsch have an 8-3 record as a team. +Muster and Chang had never played each other, and while their match had a certain appeal on paper considering Chang's speed and Muster's thunderous ground strokes, it was a sloppy affair, with unforced errors outnumbering winners by 2 to 1. +Chang, who made some marvelous retrieves during the match, looked in control early. After trading service breaks in the first set, the players played on serve until the 10th game, when Chang broke Muster for the set at 6-4. +In the second set, Muster broke early and went up 4-2 with an uncharacteristic foray to the net. Chang fought off four break points in the seventh game, until a forehand error gave Muster a 5-2 lead. He wrapped up the set when Chang dumped a backhand into the net off a forehand drive. +Talk of the Day +Muster won the next two sets, losing only two games in each set, and slammed the door on the American, 6-4, in the fourth with a forehand drop volley that dribbled off the net cord for the match. +But it was the play of Agassi that was the talk of the day. He kicked his serve wide to the backhand of the right-handed Skoff, and then barreled a forehand or backhand into the open court before Skoff was able to return to his ready position. +'Personally, I have never played someone who could put me under pressure that much,' said Skoff, who was visibly tired. 'If you don't put pressure on Agassi, he makes you run like a dog. I think Thomas will have a better chance than I because he's a left-hander and Agassi won't be able to hit that kick serve.' +Skoff called it 'out of his mind tennis,' which is exactly what Agassi told him when they shook hands at the net. +Skoff Is Run Ragged +The first set was Skoff's only opportunity to make it a match. Like Agassi, he is known for his forehand, but his is an unorthodox one on which he propels himself into the shot. A player with Agassi's quickness leaves Skoff vulnerable on his recovery shot. +They each broke serve twice in the first seven games of the opening set, until things settled down. They played on serve into a tie breaker, in which Agassi took control of the match. He pumped up his serve, and literally toyed with Skoff, running him ragged from side to side. +Agassi finished off the tie breaker, 7-3, with an ace, and then ripped off a string of nine games in a row: he won the second set at love in 21 minutes, and then added an effective drop shot to the final set attack to win 6-1. ----Australia Goes 2-0 SYDNEY, Australia, Sept. 21 (AP) - Wally Masur rallied to defeat Martin Jaite in a five-set struggle today and lift Australia to a 2-0 lead over Argentina in their Davis Cup semifinal.

Despite a relatively lackluster season, he remains a medal contender for the United States in each Alpine event at the Olympic Games, which begin next week in Turin, Italy. +Benjamin Raich of Austria was the winner, finishing his downhill run in the morning and his slalom in the afternoon with a combined time of 2 minutes 36.48 seconds. Rainer Schönfelder of Austria was second in 2:37.31. +Miller was right behind in 2:37.47, despite a huge mistake in the downhill portion; he misjudged part of the terrain and flew off the course. +Miller's third-place finish also meant mandatory attendance at a post-race news conference, something Miller's sponsors might have hoped would never happen again. +For the first time, the determinedly unscripted Miller was asked about an interview published in Rolling Stone magazine in which he seemed to suggest that Lance Armstrong and Barry Bonds had used performance-enhancing drugs. +'The interview was pretty warped and pretty compressed to make it sound that way,' Miller said. 'Obviously, if I were to speak with Lance, I would apologize to him personally. But to make anything public of it, I think would actually probably make it sound like the article is more truth than it was.' +Miller has praised Armstrong in the past. 'In no way was I trying to incriminate him or accuse him in any way of cheating,' he said. +Miller went to Dubai last week to golf with his brother, and in so doing he snapped a 136-race, 46-month streak of not missing a World Cup event. The vacation was meant to recharge him physically and to provide escape from the public stage. +But as Miller returned, ESPN magazine published an article questioning the legitimacy of an orthopedic specialist Miller and some teammates have visited in Mexico. On Friday, Miller was invited to address that. +'I don't really have a lot of interest in going through the flagrant exaggerations of the press these days,' Miller said. 'It doesn't do much for me.' +It also does not seem to do much for his primary sponsor, the Barilla food company. Invitations to a press gathering with Miller on Thursday, arranged by the company's Switzerland-based marketer, specified that journalists should avoid asking questions regarding antidoping programs or alcohol. +The 28-year-old Miller has been forced to explain his recent candor on those subjects. Numerous critics have interpreted the remarks as a publicity stunt, timed to raise his profile during the Olympic season, but people within the United States ski racing community say that Miller's frankness is nothing new. +'He's so honest,' said Olle Larsson, a longtime coach and a founder of the Rowmark Ski Academy in Salt Lake City, a feeder program for the United States ski team. 'He always speaks with conviction and not politics in mind.' +On Friday, Miller spoke, as he usually does at news conferences, in a rapid monotone. He said it depressed him that the news media 'manipulates things to try to get readership and increase their ratings.' +The ESPN article included comments from several members of the United States ski team staff expressing concerns about Milne Ongley, the specialist with a practice in alternative joint therapy in Mexico. +'The guy's practicing out of the country for a reason, and we're uncomfortable at best,' Phil McNichol, coach of the United States men's team, is quoted as saying in the ESPN article. +Miller said Friday that he and other athletes had done their own research on Ongley and had 'come to their own conclusions.' Miller and some of his teammates have publicly praised Ongley's techniques for years. +In the late fall and early winter, Miller gave several interviews, then traveled to Europe for the World Cup circuit. As the Games draw closer, articles based on those interviews have begun appearing in rapid succession. +Friday's race was just the fifth podium finish in the season's 29 races for Miller. On Saturday, the men will race a downhill at Chamonix before the World Cup calendar pauses for the Winter Games. +Saturday's race will be crucial for Daron Rahlves of the United States. Despite winning three of the season's eight downhill races, he faces the possibility of elimination from any chance at the downhill title. +WINTER SPORTS" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Swede Has Gold-Medal Celebration Down Cold +There were no more awards celebrations more joyless than Anja Paerson's accepting her two bronze medals in the women's combined and the downhill earlier in the Turin Olympics. She forced a wave to her fans in the grandstand, but Paerson, the reigning overall World Cup champion from Sweden, did nothing to hide her disappointment. +The 24-year-old Paerson came to Turin with a silver and a bronze medal from the 2002 Salt Lake City Games. Two more bronze medals did not fill the prominent hole in her ski racing résumé. +So Wednesday, when Paerson finally won her first Olympic gold medal, in the women's slalom, she threw her arms in the air, and performed her trademark belly slide, which she calls the walrus. Paerson gets a running start and flings herself down the finish-area slope on her stomach with her arms and legs splayed outward. And she cried on the top step of the medal podium. +'It is a day when I felt in total harmony,' said Paerson, who slightly injured a knee practicing during the race's warm-up period. +'Even when things seemed to be slipping away, when the other girls skied well and I hurt my knee, I was calm. I was sure this was the day, an amazing day.' +The night race was contested with light snow and dense fog obscuring the lighted racecourse nearly from gate to gate. Paerson led after the first of two runs, but several top racers put pressure on her with swift second runs. Paerson, the last elite skier waiting in the start gate, could hardly coast to a victory. +Her aggressive and efficient second run gave her a total time of 1 minute 29.04 seconds, which was 0.29 seconds ahead of the silver-medal winner, Nicole Hosp of Austria. +Hosp's teammate Marlies Schild won the bronze medal with a sparkling run that allowed her to jump from sixth place after the first run. The Austrian Alpine team has won 11 medals in the 2006 Olympics, and 101 in Olympic history. The next closest country is Switzerland, which has won 53. +Paerson's dramatic second run also knocked her chief rival, Janica Kostelic of Croatia, off the medal podium. +Kostelic, who was the runner-up to Paerson in the overall World Cup standings last year and whose relationship with her had been sometimes frosty, finished fourth. Kostelic, who has six medals in the past two Olympics, failed to win a medal for the first time in seven Olympic events. +Afterward, she said she might not race in the giant slalom Friday because of a lingering illness. +Paerson said her knee injury hurt enough that her father and coach, Anders, asked if she wanted to skip Wednesday's race to rest for the giant slalom. +'But I said, 'No, I'm doing this today,' ' Paerson said. 'There had already been days at these Olympics when I felt a little bit unlucky. The snow conditions were against me, and things weren't working out. I wasn't going to dwell on any negatives anymore.' +Paerson's victory was aided by the disqualification of Kathrin Zettel of Austria in the first slalom run. Zettel, ranked third in the world in the slalom, was on a pace to knock Paerson off the top of the leader board halfway through her first run when she suddenly skied off the course. +'I don't know what went wrong,' Zettel said. 'I felt so good, and now I feel so bad.' +Kristina Koznick, the United States' best slalom skier for the past several years, skied Wednesday despite a torn anterior cruciate ligament in her right knee, an injury sustained in training just days before the Olympics. On Wednesday, she struggled through her first run and finished 34th, more than 3 seconds behind Paerson. Koznick withdrew before her second run. She will have knee surgery Monday in Vail, Colo. +'It took a lot of courage to go from being on crutches to being here,' Koznick said afterward. 'I wanted a fairy tale, and I guess it didn't happen. But I'm happy I tried.' +The 30-year-old Koznick said she might retire. +'This has been very hard, and I spent a lot of time crying at the timing of it all,' she said. 'I don't know if this is the last race of my career or not. It's hard to think about going out this way.' +Sarah Schleper, in 10th, was the top American finisher.

By late in the race, Tomba had the momentum from a stirring second run. At the moment Jagge reached out from the start house to dig his poles into the snow for his second trip down the course, Tomba still had the lead. +But 52.96 one-hundreths of a second later, Tomba had a silver medal. +Jagge thus won the gold, giving Norway two golds and a pair of bronzes in Alpine skiing at these Olympics and the reputation as a formidable Alpine player. +This has less to do with the failures of Switzerland, among others, and more to do with Norway putting serious money and labor into its own Winter Games at Lillehammer in 1994. That is where Tomba will have to go reclaim his gold, and certainly it won't be a place where the course is a mountain of Italian green, red and white. +It wasn't as if Jagge ruined the Olympics for Tomba, who won the giant slalom gold last week. Judging from Tomba's postrace mood, it didn't appear that Jagge even darkened his afternoon. Jagge did roadblock Tomba's joy ride into the Olympic history book, preventing him from a repeat double gold from Calgary -- where he won the slalom and giant slalom -- and from becoming a holder of an unprecedented four Olympic gold medals in Alpine skiing. +Silver, he said, wasn't such a blow to his ego after a first run that was loose at the top put him more than a second and a half behind Jagge's superb 51.53. He reported a problem with sharp, slippery edges on his skis. ""I didn't feel comfortable and confident to go for it,"" he said. +Two of the other strong medal candidates, Luxembourg's Marc Girardelli and France's Patrice Bianchi, departed this race on their first run, Girardelli having wasted one of the best times by missing a gate not far from the finish and Bianchi eliciting a chrous of hometown groans by missing a gate a third of the way down. +There were still four men between Tomba in sixth place and Jagge in first, eventual bronze winner Michael Tritscher of Austria and World Cup leader Paul Accola of Switzerland among them. +By some quirk of vision, Jagge could only see Tomba in his rearview mirror. +""I was nervous,"" he admitted. ""But I felt that I could have a normal second run and still win."" Roar Tells the Story +As Tomba, skiing 10th in the afternoon, poised for his second run, the Norwegian said he was better off not knowing what kind of time the Italian would produce. But the crowd gave away the secret with a gigantic roar. Tomba ferociously attacked every one of the 63 gates, his linebacker-like legs surging into every turn. When Tomba was past the finish line in 51.66 seconds for a cumulative time of 1:44.67, he collapsed on his back, at once joyous and exhausted. +Given the first run, he knew he had made the best possible play on a lousy hand. He'd handed Jagge pressure. +Jagge heard the fans grow louder as each of the four racers between Tomba and him failed to unseat Tomba from the lead. Jagge told himself that no matter how good a run Tomba had had, he could win if he just focused on himself. +""I had to tell myself that about a hundred times,"" he said. +If he believed that, it was because he was able to draw on his experience last December, when he took the first-run lead in a World Cup slalom at Madonna Di Campiglio, Italy, only to have Tomba roar down the slope and take the lead in the afternoon. +Once upon a time in his career, when he had the reputation as a great first-run racer and a second-run flop, this would have been his cue to make the crucial mistake. But a coach had suggested that he see a sports psychologist, just like Tomba has. His results began to improve. And on that December day, with banner-waving Tomba zealots lining the course, Jagge won in the legend's lair. +This being for a gold medal, Tomba hoped Jagge would lose the moment. While Tomba waited, Jagge, who needed a 53.24 to win, crossed in 52.96 and a 1:44.39 total. He won with 28 one-hundredths of a second to spare, and Tomba was part of the reception committee to lift him in the air. +Later, Tomba was saying he was happy and looking forward to the rest of the World Cup season, when someone asked if he would revert to the life style he led after the 1988 Olympics. +""Eating, drinking and womanizing,"" the reporter said. +ALBERTVILLE" +False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,True,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Washington Talk: Capital Reading; Dispassion and Austria +LEAD: Henry Anatole Grunwald testified last Wednesday before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on his nomination to become the United States Ambassador to Austria and on the State Department's decision to bar the Austrian President, Kurt Waldheim, from entry into this country because of his record in World War II. +Henry Anatole Grunwald testified last Wednesday before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on his nomination to become the United States Ambassador to Austria and on the State Department's decision to bar the Austrian President, Kurt Waldheim, from entry into this country because of his record in World War II. Here are excerpts: +I need not repeat to this committee the circumstances which unfortunately compelled the American Government to place President Waldheim on the so-called Watchlist. This was inevitable under American law, and that decision, as Deputy Secretary John Whitehead recently reiterated, is firm and not subject to change. +The only wise course under the circumstances, I believe, is not to perpetuate the discussion over this action but to get on with the business of American-Austrian relations in the many areas in which we have common interests. Let me stress that this is not at all the same as ignoring the Waldheim situation or sweeping it under the rug. +May I insert a personal note? In weighing my nomination, you will probably consider my background and the fact that I left Austria as a teen-ager with my parents, fleeing Nazi persecution. Some of you may wonder whether this might cause me to be unduly emotional in my dealings with Austria, should I go there as ambassador. I would like to point out that throughout my professional career, I have been trained, as far as possible, to analyze people and situations dispassionately. +I have been extremely fortunate, unlike so many others, to be able, with my family, to escape the horrors of Nazism and to make my way here in this great and free land. But for the grace of God, I could easily have been one of those millions who were doomed by the Holocaust. The civilized world can never forget those victims, and should I go to Austria, they will be very much on my mind. +But it is also necessary to live and work in the present. I would like to dedicate myself to a principled and sensitive foreign policy, one that enhances American strength, enhances American influence among its friends and potential friends and does not inadvertently play into the hands of our adversaries. It was, after all, America which above all other countries helped to end the Nazi horror. Today it is America which, above all other countries, is fighting to build a world where the nightmare of the Holocaust can never recur. That is why I believe a foreign policy to further American interests, strength and influence is not merely a pragmatic policy but a moral one, a policy which serves not only the living but also serves the cause and the demands of the victims." +False,True,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"For Kostelic, Gold Medals As Plentiful As Obstacles +Once again, there were plenty of vacancies in the stands at an Olympic Alpine ski event, but as the medalists in the women's combined event headed for the podium Saturday, the front row was getting crowded with Croats. +One of them, an elderly woman, held up a signed poster that showed Croatia's national star Janica Kostelic wearing her three gold medals and one silver medal from the last Olympics. +But what Kostelic was about to receive on the podium would soon make that photograph out of date. Kostelic has now won four Olympic gold medals, more than any women's Alpine skier in history, and her victory in the combined was merely the latest example of her ability to overcome bad health, bad knees and bad weather. +Kostelic withdrew from the women's downhill event Wednesday morning, citing an accelerated pulse brought on by the flu. But though she said she considered withdrawing from the combined event, too, she finished second in the slalom despite a fever Friday night in Sestriere. On Saturday, she traveled down the winding road to San Sicario to record the fastest downhill time on a shortened course. +'Every victory is different in some way,' the 24-year-old Kostelic said. 'You approach it in a different way. Now I've been sick, so it was kind of a challenge for me to beat my sickness and try to do my best when you're not feeling good.' +Kostelic has made a surprising habit of thriving through the pain: recovering from 11 knee operations, including minor surgery last June. After suffering for more than a year from Basedow's disease, she had her thyroid gland removed in January 2004, but she has quickly worked her fluid way back to the top of the sport to which she has sacrificed so much of her youth and her health. +Her final combined time of 2 minutes 51.08 seconds was a half-second better than the combined time of the silver medalist, Marlies Schild of Austria, who had finished ahead of Kostelic in the slalom. Anja Paerson of Sweden, Kostelic's biggest rival on the World Cup circuit, won her second bronze medal of these Games in 2:51.63 and then complained about the snow conditions and the length of the course. +Alpine skiing's speed events are particularly vulnerable to shifts in the weather, and the combined downhill was stopped Friday because of high winds after the first racer, Nika Fleiss of Croatia, crashed on the first jump when a gust blew her off balance. +The skiers did complete the slalom that evening in sometimes heavy snow, and the storm continued through the night into the next morning, forcing the organizers to delay the combined downhill again, this time by 90 minutes. The start was also moved to the super-G start, shortening the course to 2,549 yards from 2,920 and increasing the advantage that slalom skiers have in the combined event. Winning margins tend to be greater in slalom races than downhills, and with two slalom runs, there is room for those margins to grow. +'They really ought to make it one slalom run and a true downhill, like they're doing in some World Cup combined events,' said Florence Masnada, a former French racer and now a television commentator who was third in the combined in the 1992 Olympics. +Yet it bears remembering that Kostelic now excels at every event. Once reluctant to risk her knees in speed events -- she sustained a major injury to her right knee in a downhill at 17 in December 1999 -- she no longer holds back. Last month, she won her first World Cup downhill and has won in all four disciplines -- slalom, giant slalom, super-giant slalom and downhill -- this season. +Paerson did the same last season, but for now the Olympic record book makes it abundantly clear that Kostelic is the greater all-around threat. Paerson has won the past two World Cup overall titles but is still searching for her first Olympic gold medal. +'I think I lost it when the downhill wasn't yesterday,' Paerson said. 'It was really difficult for me to compete in slalom, and I would have liked a longer downhill from a combined start yesterday on harder snow. Then I could have taken more risks.' +Kostelic won the slalom, the combined and the super-giant slalom in Salt Lake City in 2002, and she is now the first skier to win the combined twice at the Olympics. +She grew up something of a skiing nomad. Because of the war in Yugoslavia, she spent her early childhood training with her father, Ante, and older brother, Ivica, in foreign resorts, sometimes sleeping in the car to save money during junior races. But the Kostelic family has become one of the symbols of the recently independent Croatia, and despite the postponements and uncertainty, there were still a small yet vocal block of Croatian fans to support her in San Sicario. +Ivica Kostelic was soon there to join them: taking a car from Sestriere after finishing his run in the men's super-G, which overlapped with this event. Ivica, 26, won his first Olympic medal in the men's combined Tuesday, taking the silver behind Ted Ligety of the United States. Despite her illness, Janica made it to the finish line to embrace him, and Ivica was the Kostelic leaping the fence Saturday to congratulate his sister. +It remains to be seen how many more medals Janica can win here. She said she was '99 percent' certain she would not ski in Sunday's super-G. 'I'm tired, and I need some time off,' she said. +2006 OLYMPIC WINTER GAMES -- SKIING: WOMEN'S COMBINED" +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Now, Austria's Muster Has a Real Reason to Groan +Three disparate men dominated men's tennis in 1995: Pete Sampras, Andre Agassi and that moaning, groaning Austrian baseliner with the fragile left knee and iron will, Thomas Muster. +As of Sunday night, only Agassi was still in the Australian Open. +Less than 24 hours after the top-seeded Sampras was stunned by the Australian teenager Mark Philippoussis, the third-seeded Muster was upset in the fourth round by Sweden's Mikael Tillstrom, another player with very little Grand Slam experience and lots of talent. +Tillstrom's 7-5, 4-6, 6-3, 6-2 victory not only dealt a blow to Muster's healthy ego, it struck a serious blow to his chances of becoming No. 1 in the world at this tournament. Agassi can now reclaim the top ranking he lost to Sampras in November by winning his quarterfinal match against the American Jim Courier, a 7-5, 2-6, 4-6, 6-4, 6-2 winner over Marcus Ondruska of South Africa on Sunday. +As for Philippoussis, the strapping 19-year-old from Melbourne, he won't be in the quarterfinals at all. After dominating front pages in Australia for the last two mornings, he returned to center court today and proceeded to fall flat on his ruggedly handsome face, losing by 6-2, 6-2, 6-2 in the fourth round to a cagey, left-handed Australian 11 years his senior: Mark Woodforde. +The contrast between Saturday night's straight-set victory over Sampras, in which he served 29 aces and played near-perfect attacking tennis, and today's straight-set defeat could not have been more striking. +""It was very hard for me after a win against Sampras to come back,"" Philippoussis said. ""I'm going to play plenty more tournaments. The main thing for me to do is get more experience. Mark showed today that experience is a key thing."" +Philippoussis opened the match with consecutive aces (he would finish with 12), but after that Woodforde, better known as the left-handed half of the world's best doubles team, began delicately weaving his web. A 30-year-old from Adelaide, Woodforde learned his tennis when touch was still valued, and he put all his touch to good use today, slicing backhands, drop-shotting, lobbing and knocking volleys away for winners at very tight angles. +Meanwhile, Philippoussis blasted away from the ground. But it was as if he were trying to use a bazooka to kill a mosquito. Boom. Philippoussis would smack a forehand. Poof. Woodforde would slice a backhand back. Boom. Philippoussis would overhit and put the ball in the net or long. In one case, he nearly hit the wall 25 feet behind the baseline on the fly. +""He's got to learn that there are many ways to win a tennis match,"" said Woodforde's doubles partner, Todd Woodbridge. ""He's got to hit the ball differently against different players."" +Nonetheless, it was a classic case of post-upset letdown, +""We should all just forget this match and look forward to him playing much, much better tennis,"" the 63d-ranked Woodforde said gallantly. +Sixth-seeded Yevgeny Kafelnikov and No. 7 Thomas Enqvist, both 21 and with powerful baseline games, have been playing very well throughout the tournament, and they continued to roll today. Enqvist, a Swede who will face Woodforde in the next round, beat Renzo Furlan of Italy by 7-5, 6-0, 6-3 to reach his first Grand Slam quarterfinal. Kafelnikov, the top Russian, defeated American MaliVai Washington, 6-3, 6-2, 6-4. +Kafelnikov's match ended before Philippoussis's, and he accurately predicted the young Australian's downfall, partly because he, too, had played a fine match against Sampras at this tournament when he was 19, losing in five sets in the second round in 1994. +""I was in the same situation as Philippoussis; I had nothing to lose,"" Kafelnikov said. ""He has enough confidence, but he's young and doesn't have enough experience to win it."" +But Kafelnikov, a semifinalist at the 1995 French Open and a quarterfinalist here a year ago, feels differently about his own chances. +""I feel like I can really win this,"" he said. ""The one player I never won against is out of the tournament: Pete Sampras. Everybody else, I beat them. So why can't I win the Australian Open?"" +In women's action today, second-seeded Conchita Martinez advanced to the quarterfinals with a surprisingly easy 6-3, 6-1 victory over 10th-seeded Lindsay Davenport, who had pushed her to three sets in their three previous matches and pushed Monica Seles to three sets in the Sydney final eight days ago. +""Maybe I peaked too soon in Sydney,"" Davenport said. +Martinez will face No. 8-seeded Anke Huber of Germany in the quarterfinals. Huber has not lost a set here yet and beat the Austrian Barbara Schett, 6-3, 6-2. The South African Amanda Coetzer also advanced with a 6-3, 6-3 victory over Yelena Likhovtseva of Russia, who upset the defending champion Mary Pierce in the second round. +But Pierce has not been the only star to fall early in this tournament. Muster was strangely muted on center court against Tillstrom, missing forehand after forehand and falling prey to the Swede's frequent dropshots and abrupt changes of rhythm. Asked whether the twisted ankle he suffered in the third round had affected his play, he responded cryptically: ""It's like being in court: anything I say can and will be used against me, and therefore I'm not going to say anything at all."" +Muster, whose bristling on-court persona contrasts with his measured off-court manner, clearly is weary of attacks from his peers.

But Fernandez nonetheless provided the clincher by battling the heat and her dogged opponent to earn a 6-3, 2-6, 6-3 victory and a 3-0 lead for the United States. +By handily defeating Austria in the quarterfinals for the second straight year, the United States, 14 times a Fed Cup champion, advanced to meet France on grass in the semifinals. The United States, now 6-0 against Austria, is 8-0 against France. In the other semifinal, Germany will meet Spain. +Today's leadoff singles players pronounced themselves much worse for wear after their 1-hour-56-minute workout beneath a scorching sun that transformed the Turnberry Isle hardcourt into a bed of coals. +""I haven't had enough of playing Americans, but I have had enough of playing in this heat,"" said Wiesner, the deeply tanned anchor of Austria's squad. ""It was about 110 degrees on the court, and I felt it coming right up into my feet."" +Mary Joe Fernandez repeatedly sought out the tiny patch of palm-provided shade in one corner of the court and repaired to a bed of ice immediately after the match. +""It was just really hot, and I was getting headaches; physically, it was a very difficult match for me,"" she said. +Fernandez was talked through the final set by King, and the player later said she appreciated her captain's ebullience. +""She has so much energy, and she's so positive on the court; at no time was she quiet,"" said Fernandez, who also was the beneficiary of a cheering squad composed of her teammates Amy Frazier, Navratilova and Gigi Fernandez. ""The team spirit really kept me going."" +In today's second match, Frazier, the 16th-ranked Fed Cup neophyte who replaced an ailing Lindsay Davenport, improved her singles record to 2-0 by defeating Austria's Barbara Schett, 6-3, 5-7, 6-3. +King said the most interesting aspect of this coaching stint involved getting the rookie from Michigan through her opening match yesterday against Wiesner. +""She was hyperventilating for three sets, and I felt like a breathing coach, like it was a Lamaze class,"" said King. +In doubles, Navratilova and Gigi Fernandez roared past Schett and Petra Schwarz-Ritter, 6-2, 6-1, before an appreciative crowd that was, like Schett, delighted by the opportunity to watch Navratilova perform. +""I'd never seen her play before; she was great,"" said the 19-year-old Austrian.

Thousands more watched on a wall of televisions in the city's main square. +'Janica Kostelic is very important to us here,' said Milan Bandic, the mayor of Zagreb, a city of about 800,000. 'We are a small people, but we have a winner's mentality.' +Marlies Schild of Austria won the two-run race in 1 minute 53.63 seconds, with her countrywoman Kathrin Zettel 0.44 seconds behind. Kostelic finished 1.45 seconds off the pace and clutched her hand in pain after losing her pole at the top of the second run. +'I wanted to quit because it was hurting so much,' said Kostelic, who dragged her bare right hand in the snow on half the turns, and knocked the gates out of the way with it on the others. 'But at the end of the flat part I realized I only had 20 more gates, and I thought it would be best to finish for my fans.' +Ski poles are essential to skiers for balance, but racers often ski without them as a training drill. +The race was held on Kostelic's 24th birthday, at the slope where she learned to ski. The second run was held at night, under floodlights, to maximize the ratings of the live television broadcast. +Kostelic became a national hero by winning four medals at the 2002 Olympic Winter Games in Salt Lake City: gold in combined, downhill and slalom, and silver in super-G. Croatia has passionately embraced the sport of Alpine ski racing ever since. +Growing up, Kostelic and her brother, Ivica, were the ultimate outsiders, sleeping in their car at races to save money and being coached by their father, Ante. In Croatia, which has a population of 4.5 million, the Kostelic family story is sometimes called the miracle. +On Thursday, athletes, coaches, journalists and ski technicians were transported to the mountain in a lengthy police convoy, which left a downtown hotel at 12:15 p.m. and arrived at the top of the mountain 40 minutes later. The athletes found thousands of fans lining the length of the race hill, clutching road flares that they did not light until Kostelic came down. With a budget of $3.59 million and the biggest purse of the season, the Zagreb race may be the most enthusiastically organized event of the women's World Cup. +Last year the same mountain was the site of Croatia's first World Cup race. Kostelic's fans were disappointed when she failed to finish that event, but they showed more patience than they had in 2003, when they threw snowballs at Anja Paerson of Sweden while she descended the course. +On Thursday, Kostelic lost her right pole at the starting gate, and the pole's retention strap pulled her mitten off with it. Fans groaned, then went wild when Kostelic registered faster times at each of the timing splits. +'She is No. 1 in our eyes because of her will,' said Goran Kratofil, who for 20 years has been the proprietor of the Golden Bear restaurant at the top of the Sljeme slope. 'When she gets hurt, she wants to recover so badly, and she always does.' +The top Americans in the race were Kristina Koznick in seventh place and Resi Stiegler in 10th.

Kerry, a 32-year-old Viennese, arrived in New York City by steamship, the Königin Luise, with his wife and 4-year-old son, hopeful that his new country would bring him the success and social acceptance that had eluded him in Europe. +Mr. Kerry probably could not have imagined that within a century a grandson, John Forbes Kerry, would find himself the Democratic candidate for president. +Frederick Kerry brought with him a secret: he was born a Jew, Fritz Kohn, in what is now the Czech Republic, but he and his wife, Ida, had converted to Roman Catholicism. Senator Kerry, a Catholic whose maternal side includes such blueblooded names as Winthrop and Forbes, said he did not know his paternal grandfather was Jewish until a reporter for The Boston Globe told him last year that it had been discovered by a genealogist in Vienna who scoured church records from the Austro-Hungarian empire. +Tomas Jelinek, chairman of the Jewish community in Prague, and Rabbi Norman R. Patz, president of the New Jersey-based Society for the History of Czechoslovak Jews, said that Czech Jews, in contrast to those in Poland, wore their identity somewhat more lightly. Given periodic spasms of anti-Semitism and the difficulty of advancing in the government and military as a Jew, many, like the parents of Madeline K. Albright, the former secretary of state, found conversion made their lives immeasurably easier. +The brother and sister of John Kerry's paternal grandmother, Otto and Jenni Lowe, died in concentration camps. +Frederick Kerry's story begins in Horni Benesov, a town near the Polish border that in 1880 had 4,200 inhabitants, most of them ethnic Germans (only two dozen of them Jewish) and was then known as Bennisch. Felix Gundacker, the genealogist who researched the senator's roots, said church birth ledgers include the notation that on May 10, 1873, 'was born Fritz Kohn, a legal son of Benedikt Kohn, master brewer in Bennisch, House 224, and his wife, Mathilde.' The handwritten entry was included in the 'Pages for Israelites' kept by the church in towns with small Jewish communities. +Fritz's father died when he was 3. Fritz's mother then moved with her three children to Vienna, where she had relatives, Mr. Gundacker said in a telephone interview. Fritz attended high school, served in the army, then worked as an accountant for a shoe factory owned by his maternal uncle in nearby Modling. +In 1896, his younger brother, Otto, seeking advancement in the military, was baptized as a Catholic; he later changed his name to Kerry. In 1901, Fritz, who had married Ida Lowe in a Jewish ceremony the previous year, was baptized in Modling. +Later that year, he changed his name to Kerry, too, a fact recorded in the original church birth ledgers for Bennisch confirming that Frederick Kerry was born Fritz Kohn. Mr. Gundacker said the records state that Frederick Kerry gave these reasons: '1) that this very common name is specifically connected to Judaism 2) that therefore this name could be detrimental to his military career.' +After coming to the United States, he settled in Chicago, where he counseled stores like Sears, Roebuck on organization. By 1915, he moved to Brookline, Mass., where Ida gave birth to their third child, Richard, who grew to work as a diplomat, marry Rosemary Forbes and father John Kerry. +In 1921, a virtually bankrupt Frederick Kerry shot himself in a bathroom at Boston's Copley Plaza Hotel. +The family's Jewish connections did not end with his death. In 1983, the senator's brother, Cameron, married Kathy Weinman, a Jew whose mother keeps a kosher home. Before the wedding, Cameron converted to Judaism." +False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,True,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Maier Leads Austrian Sweep In World Cup Downhill +The Herminator is back. Vanquishing his nearest opponent by almost a full second, Hermann Maier on Saturday won his first World Cup downhill ski race since nearly losing his leg in a motorcycle accident in 2001. +Maier reached speeds of 75 miles an hour on Beaver Creek's difficult Birds of Prey course, beating his Austrian teammates Hans Knauss and Andreas Schifferer, who finished second and third. +The top American racer was the fourth-place finisher, Daron Rahlves, who finished 1.25 seconds behind Maier's winning time of 1 minute 39.76 seconds. On Friday, in another World Cup downhill race held to replace one canceled in Val d'Isere because of a lack of snow, Rahlves logged the course record, winning his second World Cup downhill this year. +Maier, a two-time Olympic gold medalist, finished fifth in Friday's race. With his downhill victory on Saturday and a super-G victory last week in Lake Louise, Alberta, Maier moved into first place in the overall World Cup standing. The American Bode Miller, who did not finish either of the Beaver Creek races, was in fifth. +With Saturday's victory, Maier, who turns 31 Sunday, has logged 43 World Cup victories, bringing him within striking distance Italy's Alberto Tomba, who won 50 races before retiring two years ago. +'It's amazing,' Bill Marolt, the chief executive of the United States Skiing Association, said of Maier's performance. 'To come back from that serious of an injury and compete at the top is just incredible.' +The 15th racer out of the starting gate, Maier steered clear of race gates that those before him had tried to cut more closely, holding the dynamic, gravity-defying tuck he is famous for as he hurdled himself at an average speed of 60 m.p.h. +'I know the fastest line to the bottom here,' said Maier, who has won 8 of 11 races on the Beaver Creek course. He said that it is one of his favorites because 'you don't have time to think between the gates.' +His coaches had not expected him to reach his peak until later in the season, but 'he's getting stronger,' said Walter Hubman, a coach with the Austrian team. 'And today he was quite aggressive, almost like in his old days.' +Yet no one was as surprised by Maier's success as he was. Last year at this time, he said he was drinking beer in a bar in Obertauern, Austria, watching the race on television and thinking it was not possible for him to ski again on this level. 'One year later, I won this race,' he said. 'It's a big dream for me.' +He said his long recuperation, which required multiple operations that healed only last spring, made him appreciate the grueling training necessary to compete in a World Cup race. 'Before it was easier,' he said of his remarkable record of 40 victories before his accident. 'I missed almost two seasons of training. And now I know how much work it takes to win.' +For his part, Rahlves, who last year was ranked second in World Cup downhills, grimaced as he caught his breath Saturday at the end of his run.

But during that time, in narrow windows created by warm weather or knee injuries, he slowly earned an engineering degree from Dartmouth College. +'The U.S. ski team has two stars, Bode Miller and Daron Rahlves,' Macartney said. 'But there are some good guys coming up.' +Macartney will race in the super-G at the Olympics, but he will be part of a run-off competition with two of his teammates for the final start position in the Olympic downhill. +'We're going to have three boys gunning for the final two start rights,' said John McBride, coach of the American downhill and super-G squads. Miller and Rahlves have clinched their start positions, but McBride said Macartney, Steve Nyman and Marco Sullivan would compete for the final two start positions. +The showdown will take place in one of the standard training runs in the three days leading up to the Feb. 12 race. +Macartney's finish came two days after Julia Mancuso finished second in the super-G in Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy, making her the sixth American in this particular group of podium finishers. The other five are Miller, Rahlves, Ted Ligety, Caroline Lalive and Lindsey Kildow. +With the exception of Lalive (who is having knee surgery this week), each of those athletes has had multiple trips to the podium -- and the doping control and news conferences that go with it. +While Macartney was racing in Garmisch-Partenkirchen yesterday, Mancuso finished fifth in the giant slalom in Cortina d'Ampezzo. She had been reunited with her ski boots, which she left in a Canadian hotel in December and which did not catch up with her for more than a month as she traveled from country to country on the tour. +'It's what's inside, the liners and footbeds, that are hard to replace,' said Mancuso in a conference call last week. 'The most difficult thing for me was just trying to get something to work. I never had any rest. It was just race to race to race.' +The Alpine World Cup, organized by the International Ski Federation, began in the 1966-67 season, when a group of journalists and coaches devised a scoring system to determine which skiers were the best that season. (The answer, it turned out, was Jean-Claude Killy of France and Nancy Greene of Canada.) +That year there were 17 men's races and 17 women's races. Since then, the number has grown to almost 40. Many in the sport believe that it has gotten too big, diluting the importance of individual races and exhausting the athletes. But because the national governing bodies in each country derive revenue and exposure from the races they are host to, the federation has had trouble shrinking the circuit. +The season is more than half over, with women having completed 25 of 37 races and men having raced 29 of 39. Janica Kostelic of Croatia and Benjamin Raich of Austria lead their respective standings. +There is one more weekend of racing before the tour breaks for the Olympics. The women will race Feb. 3-5 in Ofterschwang, Germany; the men will race the same dates in Chamonix, France. +Miller's recent long-planned golf vacation ended a streak of 136 consecutive World Cup races in which he started. No active skier has come close to that mark; two of the sport's best all-rounders, Raich and Anja Paerson of Sweden, have skipped races in the past three weeks to train and rest. +If an American skier is to break the longstanding record and become the eighth skier on the podium this season, it will most likely be Erik Schlopy or Nyman. Schlopy, 33, was a hundredth of a second behind the third-place finisher at a giant slalom on Dec. 3. Nyman, 23, was fourth on Saturday's downhill in Garmisch-Partenkirchen. +'When I watch him ski, he gives me a heart attack,' Mancuso said of Nyman, who has been her boyfriend for almost three years. She likens Nyman's technique to that of Miller in that they both swing their arms wildly to maintain balance. +If Nyman wins the training-run showdown in Turin, Italy, the world will get to see his unfettered style in the Olympic men's downhill, which is scheduled for Feb. 12 and happens to be his 24th birthday. +OLYMPICS" +False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"National Airport Enters Modernity +A $409 million terminal is scheduled to open today at National Airport in Washington, holding the promise of no more than a five-minute walk from its Metro subway station to the departure gates. +The new terminal will transform National Airport from one of the nation's most inadequate -- it was built in 1941 and has been expanded in fits and starts as traffic has increased -- into one of the most modern. It was already just about a 15-minute subway ride from downtown Washington. It will also have eight lanes on a new road that is designed to relieve chronic traffic tieups. +The architect for the new terminal is Cesar Pelli, who once worked for Eero Saarinen, the designer of the Dulles International Airport terminal in suburban Virginia. Mr. Pelli has incorporated an airiness like that of Dulles into the million-square-foot National Airport design. The new terminal has 54 domes, for example, each of which lets in the sun through skylights 65 feet above the floor. +Airlines to move in today are US Airways, US Airways Express, Air Canada, American, American Eagle, Midway Express, United, America West, Delta and the Delta Connection-Business Express. +The Delta and US Airways shuttles and Continental will not move from the old terminal to the new one until early next year when the last 10 of the 35 gates are opened. TWA, TW Express, Midway and Northwest will stay in the old building, which has been connected to the new one and will be renovated. Alas, those gates require a walk of all of eight minutes. +National is Washington's gateway airport. It had 15 million passengers last year, a figure that will not grow much, because its capacity will not be increased.

All of Ellis Island is closed, as emergency-response operations continue to use the park service's facilities there. +Federal Hall National Memorial on Wall Street and Castle Clinton in Battery Park were also closed while new security arrangements were being made. Federal Hall, where George Washington took his first oath as president, served as a refuge for people fleeing the destruction, despite having suffered damage in the attack. +On Staten Island, Fort Wadsworth is closed at the Coast Guard's request because of military activity, and Miller Field is closed while New York City uses it for staging equipment for recovery operations. No date for reopening these sites has been set. +In Washington, national monuments reopened the day after the attack on the Pentagon, even as the city remained on high alert. 'We must remain vigilant as we provide the American people access to our nation's monuments, memorials and parks for the solace and inspiration they provide,' Interior Secretary Gale Norton said as she reopened such sites as the Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial. +At the Pentagon, public tours have been canceled. And at a few other sites in the national park system, there are isolated closings that appear to be safeguards against terrorist attacks. At several parks, for example, tourists are not being allowed to visit dams. +At Glen Canyon National Recreation Area in Arizona and Utah, the road to the dam and the visitor center are open, but the Chains overlook is closed and tours of the dam have been suspended. At Bighorn Canyon National Recreation Area in Montana and Wyoming, the visitor center and the road to the dam are both closed, and tours have been suspended. Tours of the dam at Lake Mead National Recreation Area in Arizona and Nevada have been suspended, but the park visitor center is open and the dam access road is open to cars, vehicles towing small boats and jet-skis, and pickup trucks with campers on the bed. The dam at Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area in the State of Washington is closed and there are no tours, but the visitor center is open. The situation at Shasta Dam in California is the same: no tours, but the visitor center is open. +There have been closings at a few other places around the country. Areas at the north and south ends of the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco are closed. Fort Funston, with cliffs near the bridge, is closed to hang gliding and paragliding. +In Boston, the Naval Yard remains closed. Elsewhere in the city's national historical park, Bunker Hill, Dorchester Heights and the State Street visitor center are open. +At Cape Canaveral, Playalinda Beach, where the public goes to watch space launches, is closed at the request of the space agency, but all other park areas are open. +And Huffman Prairie Flying Field near Dayton, Ohio, which is at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, is closed. The visitor center is open. +At most national parks, travelers will not have to do anything differently, a parks spokesman said. The most they may notice at some locations is an increased presence by park police and rangers. More accommodations are available than usual because many people have chosen not to fly since the hijackings. The park service has announced that it will cancel entrance fees at all parks during the Veterans Day weekend, on Nov. 10, 11 and 12. +But things have been very different for many people of the park service since the shock of the attacks. A number of those on Liberty and Ellis Islands saw the first plane hit the World Trade Center, and even more saw the second plane hit after it passed low over the islands. Many others were directly involved in rescue efforts, or in the intensive systemwide efforts to beef up security in the aftermath of the attacks. A number of park system employees have decided to apply for jobs as armed marshals riding on airplanes, park service officials have reported. +What many who were involved seem to be seeking is an elusive return to normalcy in the parks. One of them, Raymond Collins, an immigrant from Belfast, Northern Ireland, who works as a guide on Ellis Island, spoke movingly to 300 park employees who gathered the other day in the immigration museum there. +'I have first-hand experience of the consequences of the traumas and long-term consequences of bombings and assassinations,' he said.

It was a time when less formal gardens were becoming popular, inspired by the work of Humphrey Repton and Capability Brown. Over the years the garden has undergone many changes, including the clearing of dense Victorian shrubs by King George VI and Queen Elizabeth and the introduction of decorative flowering trees and shrubs. There are over 200 mature trees -- wild cherry and fern-leaved beech, among them -- in the garden and more than 350 kinds of wildflowers along the lake. +Buckingham Palace will be open daily Aug. 4 to Sept. 30, from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Timed tickets, required for entry to 19 state rooms, are $15.

The exhibit, which opened this month, is designed to appeal to nonspecialist visitors who wish to know more about the scientific background of environmental matters. The exhibition looks at the earth in space -- the atmosphere, the solid earth, water and the sun's energy. +The exhibition is housed in a towering greenhouse structure. Visitors enter it through a simulated moonlit rain forest buzzing with sounds of life that leads to a glass chasm around which the display is built. The walls are lighted to represent fire and water, and spinelike bridges over the chasm symbolize the plant and animal forms that comprise the chains of life. A video wall, a quadroscope that uses mirrors to create a globe about 65 feet in diameter, traces the water cycle from ocean to mountaintop and back. Visitors can also enter a leaf structure in which they are moved around while the process of photosynthesis is explained and illustrated by a sound and light effect.

Two other, cash-based options are far more expensive. +Under the new rules, the deposits rise to $400 for a foreign-registered car manufactured before 1994, to $600 for cars made between 1994 and 1998, and to $800 for models newer than that. The deposits are to be paid in cash or by credit card; in the latter case, the Mexican government will not simply retain the voucher but will immediately debit the card, officials said. +The deposits apply only to cars that pass into the Mexican interior, beyond a legally defined border zone that extends 25 kilometers, or about 16 miles, south of the frontier. The deposits do not apply at all to the peninsula of Baja California, which includes two states that have traditionally enjoyed a variety of free-trade provisions, officials said. +Highway checkpoints are set up at the perimeters of the 16-mile zone, and a driver caught without a permit can lose his car. +The new deposits will probably greatly reduce cross-border tourism. Experts on car travel to Mexico, including owners of agencies that sell Mexican car insurance to foreign motorists, say that if the new deposits take effect, a large percentage of American and Canadian tourists are likely to cancel their Mexican plans. +'It's going to be terrible,' said Olivia Bravo, co-owner of the Bravo Insurance Agency in Laredo, Tex. Her agency sells 5,000 policies a year to motorists heading into Mexico. She predicted that sales of Mexican policies would fall by at least half under the new rules. +'They're going to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs,' Mrs. Bravo said. +Last year, 2.7 million Americans and 34,000 Canadians crossed into Mexico beyond the border zone, and the American motorists spent $679 million in their Mexican travels, said Camilo Perez Venegas, a director at the Council for Tourist Promotion, a government agency. Another statistic measuring the same cross-border tourism is that Mexican Customs issued 750,000 six-month permits for foreign cars to circulate in Mexico in 1998. +Five congressmen, from Texas, Arizona and California, outlined the broad discontent in border states in a meeting Nov. 3 with Mexican Ambassador Jesus Reyes Heroles. +One of the lawmakers, Representative Solomon Ortiz, Democrat of Texas, said his constituents in Corpus Christi have been organizing to protest the measure, and other demonstrations and boycotts appeared to be brewing all along the border. +'People are very unhappy with this, because they just don't have the money,' Representative Ortiz said. 'A lot of people can't afford to even get a credit card, much less have $600 to $800 for this.' +The new deposits are designed to force people who drive cars into Mexico to drive them out again, since at least 1.5 million cars have been left behind -- in effect, imported illegally -- said officials at the Treasury Ministry, which together with the Interior Ministry wrote the new rules. +The 1.5 million owners of the illegal cars are so powerful politically that authorities simply discard the possibility that police might seize the illegal cars or arrest the owners. Last year federal police confiscated only 8,000 of the illegal cars. +Marco Provencio, a Treasury Ministry spokesman, said that the owners of the illegal cars pay no taxes, making them a drag on government revenues and a threat to Mexican car dealers. Pretax prices on new cars in Mexico are on average about 5 percent higher than in the United States, he said. When taxes are included, Mexican prices increase by 21 percent, United States prices by about 8 percent. +But the new deposit's impact on tourism appears to have gone largely unconsidered in the government's internal debate. Several Tourism Ministry officials expressed surprise over the new rules, saying they had not heard of them. One asked a reporter to explain the measures. +An American official said he believed that the Oct. 28 postponement of the new plan was a first step toward canceling it completely. But Mr. Provencio said that people should plan to comply. +'We're not planning to repeal this,' he said. 'We wouldn't postpone it for a month and then cancel it. That wouldn't be a serious way to operate.' +TRAVEL ADVISORY: CORRESPONDENT'S REPORT" +False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"TRAVEL ADVISORY +LEAD: Gatwick Gets New Terminal Nearly 30 years after opening the South Terminal at Gatwick Airport, Queen Elizabeth dedicated the new North Terminal there on March 18, and passengers were due to begin using the building last week. +Gatwick Gets New Terminal Nearly 30 years after opening the South Terminal at Gatwick Airport, Queen Elizabeth dedicated the new North Terminal there on March 18, and passengers were due to begin using the building last week. +Completion of the $450 million terminal at the airport, 20 miles south of London, is expected to increase the airport's capacity from its current 20 million to 25 million passengers a year.

Athens Limits Motor Vehicles +In an effort to cut down air pollution, Athens has restricted traffic in its downtown commercial district and has limited taxi traffic in the city. Earlier this month all vehicles were prohibited from the area bounded by Stadiou, Ermou and Athinas Streets, except for trucks resupplying shops at certain hours and the cars of 100 permanent residents. The ban is in effect through May, when the Government will evaluate its effect. +The taxi measure, instituted earlier this year, limits traffic into the city on weekdays from 7 A.M. to 8 P.M. Those arriving at airports or ship terminals at those times and looking for rides to downtown hotels should look closely at the license plate on any taxi they take. A taxi whose last license plate digit is an even number is allowed into the city only on even-numbered dates, and one with odd last digits can enter only on odd-numbered dates. New Stickers On Air Tickets +Domestic airlines have agreed to new, more specific wording on the orange stickers on the cover of reduced-fare tickets. The current sticker merely says that a special fare ticket may involve penalties for changes or cancellations. +The new version says: 'This is a special fare ticket and one or more of the following restrictions may apply: +' Advance notice is required to change reservations. +'Travel is restricted to flight, days and/or hours. +'Minimum and/or maximum stay is required. +'Fee is required for changing or canceling reservations. 'Ticket is non-refundable/non-exchangeable. +'Changing your reservation may result in penalties and increased fare. Always advise your airline or your travel agent that you are traveling on a special fare.' +Bill Jackman, a spokesman for the Air Traffic Conference, an industry group that sets airline standards, said the wording was adopted because ticket buyers 'may not have understood what they heard on the phone or have gotten all the information.'

The passes are offered by the national rail systems in 17 European countries, and are good for travel in all 17. +The basic Eurailpass is good for unlimited first-class travel for periods ranging from 15 consecutive days to 3 months. Other versions of the Eurailpass, including Eurail Flexipass, Eurail Saverpass and Eurail Saver Flexipass, also qualify for the 40th-anniversary discount. They have varying time periods and conditions. The Europass, a more restricted type of Eurailpass, allows unlimited travel in five countries -- France, Germany, Italy, Spain and Switzerland -- to which up to four other countries may be added. The 40-percent anniversary discount does not apply to the Europass, however. +Users of both Eurailpasses and Europasses will once again have a grace period of up to six months -- not three months, as was the case earlier this year -- before having to start their first trip. Americans intending to use Eurailpasses or Europasses are expected to buy them in the United States before going abroad. +Eurailpass fares range from $554 for 15 days to $1,558 for 3 months. Europass fares range from $348 for 5 days in 2 months to $828 for 15 days in 2 months, with two extra countries in both cases.

The fact that the Concorde could easily have come down on top of a small town, with even more than the four deaths that resulted among people on the ground, is also raising questions about the safety of existing airports in or near cities, about their further development and about the location of future airports elsewhere in Europe. +Fierce disputes over inner city airports have erupted on the Continent in recent years, notably in Italy, where a group of European airlines has taken Alitalia to court over its plans for Linate Airport, a 15-minute drive from downtown Milan. The argument erupted after Alitalia, backed by the Italian authorities, sought to capitalize on local resistance to Linate by forcing its European competitors to use a new airport, Malpensa, a $65 cab ride from central Milan, while Alitalia reserved Linate for itself. +In Berlin, controversy is simmering about the future of downtown Tempelhof Airport, site of the 1949 airlift into Berlin by the Western Allies. Berlin now relies mainly on tiny Tegel Airport, in former West Berlin, and proposals to enlarge Schonefeld, the old East Berlin airport, into a major international hub are hamstrung by debates among politicians, air traffic planners and environmentalists opposed to any airport enlargement. Meanwhile, the former East German city of Leipzig, whose airport was upgraded after the fall of the Berlin Wall, is booming, attracting travelers from as far away as Berlin. +In Paris, the numbers speak for themselves. Last year, Charles de Gaulle Airport, departure point for the fatal Concorde flight, registered 490,000 takeoffs and landings, a leap of 100,000 in three years. The airport, in Roissy on the northeastern outskirts of the city, handled 44 million passengers, almost 13 percent more than in 1998. At that rate of growth, a ceiling of 55 million passengers set by the French government will be reached by 2002. +In March, Yves Cousquer, president of Aeroports de Paris, the government-owned company that operates Charles De Gaulle and Orly, the smaller Paris airport, said that construction of a third airport for the Paris region had become unavoidable. After the Concorde crash near the town of Gonesse, which killed 113 people, the French minister of transportation, Jean-Claude Gayssot, said a formal decision to build the third airport would probably come this month and a site would be chosen by year's end. +Such a decision will not be easy. Originally, Aeroports de Paris favored expanding Charles de Gaulle and Orly, but after the crash, Mr. Cousquer acknowledged that construction of a third airport had become 'ineluctable.' In towns like Gonesse that profit from jobs the airports create, mayors and other politicians are torn between the benefits and the risks. If the Concorde had crashed in the center of Gonesse, instead of its thinly populated outskirts, the number of victims would certainly have been far higher. +Discussion of a possible third airport for Paris began in the mid-1990's, as the saturation of Charles de Gaulle and Orly clashed increasingly with French ambitions to build Paris into a major European hub to compete with Frankfurt and London. Initially, the government of Prime Minister Lionel Jospin, which took office in 1997 with the backing of Green parties and environmentally sensitive leftists, shelved the idea, preferring instead to expand the two existing airports. Generally, the Greens and their leftist allies oppose hub development, favoring smaller regional airports and preferring high-speed trains, rather than planes, for trips shorter than 500 miles. +In 1996, the government of Prime Minister Alain Juppe had proposed a site at Beauvilliers, near Chartres about 50 miles southwest of Paris. Mayors in the region objected, suggesting Vatry, a town east of Paris near a proposed high-speed train line between Paris and Strasbourg. Whatever the choice, Mr. Cousquer of Aeroports de Paris says the third airport will not be in operation before 2025. The Juppe government had envisaged an opening in 2015. +These projections have encouraged a bid by Lyon, in the southeast of France, to turn its airport, Lyon-St.-Exupery, into a second major port of entry to France at less cost and time than it would take to build a third Paris airport. Bernard Chaffange, director of Lyon-St.-Exupery, says that the airport, which has a high-speed train link to Paris and will connect next year with Marseille on the Mediterranean coast, could absorb the 40 percent of international travelers now flying into Paris but ultimately destined for business or vacations in the south of France. +In July, Mr. Gayssot approved further investment at Lyon-St.-Exupery, including two additional runways. Local environmentalists and others opposed to the expansion are already organizing resistance. +TRAVEL ADVISORY: CORRESPONDENT'S REPORT" +False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Waikiki Buses Shuttle Guests to Hotels +Visitors to Waikiki can now make the half-hour journey from airport to hotel via Airport Waikiki Express shuttle buses.

The Park Service wants to turn the auditorium into an interpretive center for visitors, and restore some of the living quarters, guard towers and barbed-wire fence to their World War II conditions. +New to the site is a tour offered by the Eastern California Museum in nearby Independence.

And the train was not exceeding the 79 m.p.h. limit.) +Last month Amtrak unveiled the first of 20 high-speed trains that will go into service later this year along the Northeast Corridor, the 470-mile strip linking Washington, New York and Boston. The new trains, renamed Acela, to suggest a combination of excellence and acceleration, will race along at 150 m.p.h., Amtrak officials said; their top speed today is 90 m.p.h. between Boston and New York and 125 m.p.h. between New York and Washington. The higher speed, a result of track improvements and technology that allows the new trains to tilt into curves with little danger of derailment or of disrupting passengers when the trains bank, would cut 30 minutes from the present four-hour New York to Boston trip and up to 30 minutes between New York and Washington. As an added lure, Amtrak officials said that fares will be 30 percent lower than walk-up fares on US Airways' and Delta's shuttle flights. +That saving presumably would make Acela more attractive to passengers, especially business travelers. In addition, the new cars will offer electrical outlets for laptop computers and audio entertainment, televised news updates, tables to spread out papers or hold meetings, enlarged lounges and bathrooms, and better food, drinks and luggage storage. +If Amtrak's ambitious plans for the Northeast Corridor succeed -- enabling the line to become self-sufficient by 2002, when its Federal subsidy is scheduled to end -- the railroad next plans a $25 million network of high-speed trains linking nine Midwestern states from Ohio to Nebraska, with Chicago as the hub. Then it hopes to add other regions. +Those trains are still some years down the road. Meanwhile, about a dozen other high-speed routes are already on the drawing boards or under construction. They range in length from 85 miles, between Chicago and Milwaukee, to 676 miles, the so-called California corridor that would link San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Sacramento. Projected costs for the projects range from $29 billion for the California corridor to $315 million to link the Buffalo-Albany portion of the 430-mile Empire corridor between Buffalo and New York City. +Trains are expected to exceed 100 m.p.h., with the fastest in California. One of the two types of train under consideration there would be capable of 220 m.p.h.; the other could run at speeds up to 310 m.p.h. Unlike other projects, which would use existing tracks, California's proposes a new rail line solely for high-speed trains. +The high-speed projections assume that signals are improved, curves straightened and stations rebuilt. So far improvements have progressed only in the Northeast Corridor, which carried more than nine million passengers in fiscal 1997 (seven million on the New York-Washington portion). Electrification of the final link, between New Haven and Boston, is scheduled for completion late this year, with high-speed service to follow soon afterward. +Other potential high-speed corridors include Eugene, Ore., to Vancouver, Canada, and Washington to Charlotte, N.C. There is a proposal to link Philadelphia and Harrisburg, and one for Birmingham, Ala., and New Orleans, eventually hooking up with Houston. The wide-ranging Midwestern project envisioned by Amtrak would encompass three smaller corridors in which Chicago would be the linchpin. +A recent General Accounting Office report to Congress said that most of the proposals for high-speed corridors are unclear about where the money is coming from and some are still developing feasibility studies. The agency cautioned that 'high-speed rail systems are costly, and thus ridership levels may not be high enough in the United States for systems to cover their costs.' Equally discouraging, Amtrak has only 0.3 percent of the nation's total passenger traffic, according to the Amtrak Reform Council, established by Congress in 1997 to monitor the railroad's progress. +But the pessimistic G.A.O. report was issued more than a month before Amtrak officials pulled the high-speed rabbit out of their hats. And since that report, Amtrak officials have pointed to the news from their recently completed fiscal year -- e.g., their largest ridership increase in a decade, their best on-time performance in 13 years and their first $1 billion-plus passenger revenues ever -- as strong evidence that they have turned the corner. +Skeptics, especially those in Congress, will probably say they have heard that before from Amtrak. About the best that supporters of high-speed rail can do is hope that this time Amtrak is right. +TRAVEL ADVISORY: CORRESPONDENT'S REPORT" +False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Corrections +A picture caption on Oct. 17 with the What's Doing column, about San Diego, omitted the first name of an actor in the play 'Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.'

Now, the Turkish Cypriot Government requires that all passports be stamped when travelers enter, and the Greek Cypriots declare that anyone with a Turkish Cypriot stamp in their passport will be arrested. +Visitors attempting to go north are now being turned away at checkpoints by Greek Cypriot guards. The Turkish Cypriots have encouraged people to tour their country, but the Greek Cypriots refuse to acknowledge that there is an independent country beyond the green line. +Under the new rules, the only foreigners permitted to cross the line are diplomats. Citizens of both the north and south republics have never been allowed across. Ecuador Reports Dengue Fever +An epidemic of dengue fever, heretofore found mainly in the Caribbean, has been reported for the first time on the Pacific coast of South America, in Guayaquil, Ecuador, according to the State Department. Guayaquil is the stepping-off place for most trips to the Galapagos Islands. Travelers there should use insect repellent to prevent bites from the aedes aegypti mosquito, a carrier of dengue fever, the department said. Health officials in Ecuador say the worst of the epidemic should be over by July, according to the State Department, but precautions should still be taken after then. Dengue fever is characterized by high fever, aching joints and general malaise. In its most serious form, the fever can be fatal. Airport Buses in New York Area +Salem Transportation of New Jersey is set to resume Sunday-to-Friday bus service between Newark International Airport and La Guardia Airport this Wednesday. +Starting at 7:30 A.M., the service departs every two hours on the half hour, with the last bus leaving Newark at 5:30 P.M. and the last one leaving La Guardia at 7:30 P.M. Salem also links Newark and Kennedy International Airport with an hourly service. The fare between Newark and either airport in New York City is $17.

Getting Cash Abroad With Your Credit Card +You can walk up to a bank's automatic teller machine at any hour in Bangkok, insert an American charge card and receive a tidy sum in Thai baht, all the while conducting the transaction in English. American Express, MasterCard and Visa charge cards can be used to withdraw money from certain automatic teller machines, or A.T.M.'s, in Thailand and all over the world as easily as you would use a bank card to withdraw money from a machine at your local bank. +The three charge card companies have agreements with several foreign banks allowing their American cardholders access to foreign A.T.M. networks. The machines can be used 24 hours a day and have instructions in English, as well as in the local language. +The machines are operated by inserting the card, punching in a personal identification number (if your card doesn't have a number encoded, ask American Express or the bank that issues your Visa or MasterCard to provide one) and selecting the proper transaction. American Express also has 140 of its own machines at travel offices, airports, railway stations and hotels. At the American Express machines, United States dollars and traveler's checks are also available. +For Visa and MasterCard users, the cash withdrawal limit is the same as the card holder's credit limit. For American Express cardholders, the cash limits are the the equivalent of from $500 a week for green and gold card holders and $1,000 a week for platinum card holders; the maximum purchase of traveler's checks available to platinum card holders is $10,000 over a 30-day period. However, in all three cases, one-day cash limits set by foreign banks for their machines may be lower than the limits that are set by the charge card companies. +American Express charges $1.50 for each cash transaction and 1 percent for traveler's checks. An additional 1 percent international access fee and a 1 percent charge for foreign currency exchange are also added. MasterCard and Visa card holders should check with their banks to determine what fees, if any, are charged for cash advances, foreign ATM access and currency exchange. +Correction: July 3, 1988, Sunday, Late City Final Edition +A Travel Advisory chart on June 12 gave an incorrect telephone number for information on automatic teller machines that provide local currency to Visa cardholders overseas. Holders of Visa gold cards may get information by calling 800-336-3386 or, in Alaska and Hawaii, 800-336-3379. A holder of a regular card may ask the issuing bank for a list of overseas cash machines. The machines may be used by holders of any Visa card." +False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Airline Tax Expiring; Fares May Go Down +Travelers may see a drop in air fares when the 10 percent Federal tax on domestic fares expires at the end of the year. +The tax, which is included in quoted fares, lapsed at the beginning of the year and provided a boon to both consumers and airlines, since air carriers were able to both lower fares and increase profits. It was reinstated by Congress on Aug. 27, but will remain in effect only until the end of the year. +The airlines declined to discuss what they will do when the tax expires. They are prohibited by the Justice Department from tipping each other off about whether they plan to raise or lower fares. +The Air Transport Association, the industry's trade group, predicts that the tax will be reinstated sometime around April. After all, the Aviation Trust Fund, which is used to pay for the air traffic control system, loses about $500 million a month when the tax is not collected, and would probably run out of money by early next summer. +ADAM BRYANT +TRAVEL ADVISORY" +False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,"Tours to Indonesia Postponed for Many +Although the violence has subsided in Indonesia, the political and economic situation remains unsettled, and the State Department, in a June 11 public announcement, advises Americans to avoid crowds and areas where violence has been reported. The announcement replaced a June 3 travel warning urging Americans to defer non-essential travel to the country. +While Jakarta, Indonesia's capital and the site of most demonstrations against former President Suharto -- who resigned May 21 -- is not included on most group-tour itineraries, many tour companies are rescheduling or canceling their tours to other sections of the country. For example, Volcano Tours canceled its Indonesian trips scheduled for June and August, with full refunds. Overseas Adventure Travel also canceled its trips to Indonesia for the rest of the year, with a full refund plus $200 toward any other trip during 1998. +Bali has not experienced violence, although there have been some demonstrations on the island. Spice Island Cruises, which offers trips that originate in Bali and then travel to remote islands, has not had any cancellations or drop in bookings, according to Jill Potash, a spokeswoman, and sees no reason not to conduct business as usual, far removed from the disturbances. +Journeys Off the Tourist Track in Fairfax, Calif., canceled one trip to Bali for June, but still plans to take two groups there in August. Travelers booked on a trip to Indonesia through Asia Transpacific Journeys in Boulder, Colo., have been given the option to reschedule. One tour set to depart the weekend after the disturbances in Jakarta was canceled, and refunds were offered.

Gorbachev comes to Washington this week seemed to have fallen through last week. +But once the tough issues are resolved, a new agreement should make it easier for American travelers to get a firsthand view of glasnost and perestroika, not to mention Red Square. +Currently, Pan Am is the only American airline that flies directly to the Soviet Union, with four afternoon flights each week to Moscow and Leningrad from Washington and New York. +The proposed agreement would expand the number of United States carriers that can fly to those cities. It also would open four cities in the western part of the Soviet Union - Kiev, Riga, Minsk and Tbilisi - and two cities in the Far Eastern region - Magadan and Khabarovsk, the eastern terminus of the trans-Siberian Railroad - to American carriers. +With five or six United States airlines expressing interest in the routes, flights could become available from virtually every region of the United States. +For those who would like to travel on the Soviet airline, Aeroflot, which now flies only to New York and Washington, the proposals would allow Aeroflot to fly to Chicago and Miami and to San Francisco, with a stop in Anchorage. +Many details have not been worked out, including precise schedules, a final agreement on the new Soviet destinations and the toughest question of all: whether American companies will be allowed to sell tickets to Russians for rubles. All that may delay the moment when a traveler in Chicago, say, or Atlanta will be able to call a travel agent and ask, 'What's the supersaver fare to Moscow and how much frequent flier mileage will I earn?' +- ANDREW ROSENTHAL +Airlines Offer Terror 'Bounty' +United States airlines are teaming up with the Federal Government to deter terrorist attacks as the summer tourist season nears. The Air Transport Association, a Washington-based organization of major commercial carriers, is offering a bounty of up to $1 million for information that either prevents a terrorist attack or leads to the arrest and conviction of terrorists responsible for attacks against United States airlines. +The $1 million will supplement a $2 million reward offered by the State Department, according to Stephen D. Hayes, vice president of the association. +'We think this might be a deterrent,' he said. 'This reward program is one more element in the way of initiatives government and industry are taking together.' +The reward offer took effect May 1. The association president, Robert Aaronson, said the program would be a 'powerful incentive for people within or close to terrorist organizations to reveal plots before they are hatched.' +The association expects the State Department to take the lead in publicizing the reward in the Middle East and Europe. +Lyons Flights +After a year, American Airlines is discontinuing its daily nonstop flights between Kennedy International Airport and Lyons, France. The service is to be dropped at the end of the month. Lyons was to serve as a gateway to the south of France and to the Alps. +American needed the aircraft for Latin American routes it bought from Eastern, which also included Continental's Miami-London service and the Chicago-London service bought from T.W.A., according to John Hotard, a spokesman for American. Business on the New York-Lyons run was 'marginal,' he said. +Cost Watching At Motels +How much did you pay when you last stayed at a motel? If you were looking for lower rates and paid more than $40 for a double room, you are missing something, according to the latest edition of 'The 1990-1991 National Directory of Budget Motels.' The 80-page booklet says that budget motels offering all the basic amenities - including air-conditioning, television, full bath and swimming pool - generally charge $22 to $33 for a single and $26 to $37 for two. Some major chains, the directory says, charge as little as $23 for a double. +It lists more than 2,000 motels in the United States and a few dozen in Canada and also includes headquarters of 26 of the budget chains, most of which have toll-free 800 numbers. +Rates are not given for individual motels because of 'unpredictable cost factors in the economy,' but the directory does include umbrella rates along with its listing of motel chains. +Rates at Budget Host Inns, for example, are given as from $18.88, double. Among other starting rates, for two, are: Days Inns, $25; Econo Lodges, $21.99; Hampton Inns, $36; Motel 6, $24.95; Super 8 Motels, $22.50; Susse Chalet, $39.70, and TraveLodge, $28. +Write or telephone the motel and ask for mailed confirmation of a guaranteed price, the directory suggests, particularly during holiday periods. +Request a room rate before checking in and inquire about the lowest rates. +Travelers should also ask about the family, senior citizen and other possible special-group discounts. +Certain areas, including the Northeast, and places with major tourist attractions and resorts offer few budget motels, the directory warns. The booklet is available solely from the publisher, Pilot Books, 103 Cooper Street, Babylon, N.Y. 11702 at $3.95 a copy plus $1 for postage. +Spoleto Tickets for Early Risers +It's not too late to attend the Spoleto Festival U.S.A. in Charleston, S.C., which began Friday and runs through June 10.

It includes a protected nursery cove in anticipation of dolphin births. +The program, scheduled to begin today, offers a chance to spend a half-hour in the water with the dolphins. +The sessions are primarily open to resort guests as as part of vacation packages. One such package, offered through the end of March, costs $369 a person, double occupancy for four days and three nights in a room with a private balcony. +A limited number of dolphin sessions will be open to Southampton Princess guests who have not booked through packages, as well as to others not staying at the resort. The encounters not booked as part of a package are to be filled by lottery, with prices for sessions ranging from $75 a person for hotel guests to $85 for those not staying at the hotel.

Some are guides to all sorts of Web sites, others specialize in tourism. +Of the general search engines, as the cognoscenti call them, Yahoo is a pioneer. Selecting the Travel subsection from the Recreation heading on the opening screen recently, I was led to 10 main headings, from bed-and-breakfasts to time shares, and a list of specific services too long to count. Exchanging homes with someone in a foreign country was an idea I had occasionally toyed with, and so far successfully resisted, so I selected that heading. +From the resulting list, I picked 'World Wide Travel Exchange -- homes in the U.S., Ireland and Canada.' That in turn led to a list of 22 states and countries. On an impulse, I chose Ireland. There was only one home for exchange in all of Ireland, at least according to this source. And it seemed doubtful that the owner of a 4,500-square-foot house with five bedrooms, two cars and a sailboat, in a seaside village near Dublin, would be interested in a 1,600-square-foot house with three bedrooms, one an office, and no sailboat in New Jersey. +Still, there were numerous home exchange offerings for one who was not committed to a particular state or country. The three-bedroom 'villa' in South Carolina sounded good, as did the 1807 Cape in Vermont, and the 'honeymoon cove' in the United States Virgin Islands. Once you find a possibility, you are on your own; phone and often fax numbers and E-mail addresses are given. +An exploration of Yahoo can definitely lead to useful information. My selection was a pretty specialized one. Outside of home exchanges, there are at least hundreds of commercial destinations, like hotels and resorts, available. +. . . AND LYCOS +http://www.lycos.com +Lycos's opening screen doesn't list a travel category, and the one I first looked at, The Road Less Traveled, turned out to be devoted to crystal balls and mysticism. So I backed up and selected The World. There were four additional steps before I got to Ireland, where I was offered the Dublin Pub Review Page; City.Net, 'general country information, maps, travel and tourism links'; Irish and Celtic Thingies (really its name), and many others. I selected City.Net. +After several twists and turns, I was looking at a map of Ireland showing towns with bed-and-breakfasts (there was no home exchange category). The first four I clicked on came back with error messages rather than information. +But, finally, I found a B & B in Dublin, and downloaded its page. It took two to three minutes to appear on the screen, probably because there were large, handsome photographs of the modern establishment, which looked as if it had been built as a B & B, not an uncommon practice in Ireland. Helpful information included number of rooms, rates, facilities both in the house and in the neighborhood. If you can pick a bed-and-breakfast from a brochure, you can pick one on the Web. These are digital brochures. +All in all, I found Yahoo better for this purpose than Lycos, partly because it had a clearly marked travel category and partly because it is the search engine I habitually call so I find it easy to use. +MORE THAN 27,000 SITES +http://www.itn.com +Finally, I tried a Web site devoted exclusively to travel, the Internet Travel Network. It describes itself as the 'first authorized World Wide Web interface to a national reservation system' that 'lets you route your booking through a travel agency in your area.' +First, as a new user, I filled in two blanks, with my name and password. I went on to select a connected travel agent -- in the town of some 30,000 people next to where I live there was one -- and filled out my 'traveler's profile' form. Then I selected Travel Resources and, from that, Hotel Any +where. The possibilities were overwhelming, more than 27,000 travel-related sites, according to the company. Here are not just accommodations, but also airlines and auto rentals, skiing and golf sites, cruise lines and yachts. +The Internet Travel Network is linked to Hotel Anywhere, which means that you can get from one to another with a mouse click, not that they are part of the same company. Hotel Anywhere, in turn, is linked to its 27,000-plus sites; it is not responsible for their contents. +Where I.T.N. fits in is that it has a list of your travel preferences and the name of your travel agent. When you find the right flight to Ireland, say, and a hotel room, a few additional clicks will send the information to the agent. You do all the work the travel agent was presumed in the past to do -- just as we now dial 15 digits to telephone London rather than have an operator make the connection -- but the agent still makes the reservations. +If you enjoy that kind of work, the network is a fine resource. If you don't enjoy that kind of work, you'd better get used to it. +L. R. SHANNON +TRAVEL ADVISORY +Correction: September 1, 1996, Sunday +A report in the Cyberscout column on Aug. 18 about the Internet Travel Network misstated a reservation procedure.

While the investigations into the four incidents have not been completed, according to the report there did not appear to be any clear relationship among them. +As might be expected, the major cruise lines, which carry well over four million passengers a year, have hailed the report, especially this sentence: ""Over the past 10 years there were no passenger deaths on deep draft passenger vessels resulting from either a vessel casualty or vessel-related operations."" +Peter G. Ratcliffe, president of Princess Cruises, said in a telephone interview, ""The report basically confirmed our view that we have an outstanding safety record."" By ""we"" he meant the International Council of Cruise Lines, of which he is vice chairman. The council represents most of the cruise industry vessels operating from United States ports. +A reading of the report, with its detailed explanations and appendices, supports Mr. Ratcliffe's assessment. But the report is not without shortcomings. ""A woman passenger was killed when the gangplank collapsed and she hit her head on the side of the ship, while the Yorktown Clipper was debarking in Juneau, Alaska, in June 1994,"" said Ralph Grizzle, a co-editor of the authoritative Cruise Week newsletter. ""And there was a Legionnaires' disease-related death of a Celebrity passenger in 1994. Cruising is safe, but there's no disputing that two passengers died in the past three years because they were on a cruise ship."" +The Coast Guard's report focused on the 182 foreign-flag passenger vessels of 1,600 gross tons or more that have taken on or discharged passengers at United States ports between 1985 and 1994. The Yorktown Clipper, owned by Clipper Cruise Line of St. Louis, is only 99 gross tons and one of only a handful of cruise ships that fly the United States flag. (Most are registered in the Bahamas, Panama and Liberia.) +As for diseases, the report notes there were four major outbreaks on cruise ships in 1944, including ""the first documented outbreak of Legionnaires' disease, where approximately 50 people became ill and one person died"" and ""one of the largest shigella outbreaks on a cruise ship, where 586 passengers and 24 crew became ill."" (The number of gastrointestinal outbreaks, like shigella, on ships has declined from 8.1 per 10 million passenger days from 1975 through 1979 to about 2.1 today.) +But because those incidents were investigated by the Federal Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta, the Coast Guard did not investigate and consequently did not incorporate the information into its findings. Yet in view of the report's overall scrupulousness -- including the fact that its news release led not with praise for the industry's safety record but with a recommendation that training and communications be improved, particularly on vessels with multinational crews -- mention in the report and in the release of casualty-free cruises sounds a discordant if not disingenuous note. +That said, the report explains to what lengths the industry, the Coast Guard and the International Maritime Organization go to assure safety from the time an owner or shipbuilder submits plans for a new vessel to the Coast Guard Marine Safety Center. Vessels still in the shipyard are inspected by a four-person Coast Guard team. After that, annual inspections test fire doors, watertight doors, fire pumps, sprinkler systems and lifeboats. Quarterly exams focus on officers' and crews' training and knowledge of firefighting, evacuation and other emergency procedures. +Despite those precautions, accidents occur -- and always will. From 1985 through 1994, there were 28 collisions, 22 groundings, 15 fires, 24 accidents from some type of material failure (piston failure, for example, or loss of power on a lifeboat) and three steering failures. On Feb. 26 Cunard's Sagafjord caught fire, stranding the vessel and the 825 people aboard more than 200 miles from the Philippines, to which it was towed. +But Mr. Ratcliffe of Princess Cruises is undoubtedly right that the industry's overall safety record is outstanding, and should continue to improve as even tougher regulations for firefighting and safety -- known as Safety of Life At Sea -- are phased in through Oct. 1, 2007. +""Ours is a highly regulated industry,"" he said, ""and that monitoring is very beneficial to the public. But the industry itself has never been complacent, and we continue to work hard to keep standards as high as they are. We welcomed the Coast Guard investigation, so anyone who was uneasy would be reassured."" +TRAVEL ADVISORY: CORRESPONDENT'S REPORT" +False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"But Will I Lose My Frequent Flier Miles? +Travelers with stockpiles of frequent flier miles on US Airways and other troubled airlines are spotting an escape hatch in the airlines' alliance partners. But that option may not be as ideal as some passengers would hope. +As with any frequent flier program, partner airlines control how many free tickets are available using another airline's miles, as well as the dates when passengers are able to redeem their miles. And airlines can change their programs with little or no notice. +Further, they are not required by law to honor tickets booked with another airline's frequent flier miles, if that airline goes out of business. +The federal Department of Transportation does not regulate such matters, leaving it up to the discretion of the airlines, said William Mosley, a department spokesman. +Despite the uncertainties, partner tickets still offer an option to customers who want to use up miles. US Airways, which this fall filed for its second bankruptcy in two years, is part of the Star Alliance, a group of 15 airlines with service to 772 airports in 133 countries. +US Airways' Web site, www.usairways.com (click on Dividend Miles), has a chart listing the number of miles needed for free tickets on its partners. Its most visible partner is United, with which it operates a code-sharing agreement. +But United has been in bankruptcy since 2002.

Disney's Vero Beach Resort in Florida opened in January, and Disney's Hilton Head Island Resort in South Carolina opened March 1. +The Vero Beach resort, the first Disney resort not associated with a theme park, has a 115-room inn with a four-story atrium lobby, 60 villas and 3 restaurants. On the grounds are live oak trees, and on dunes separating the resort from the beach are sea turtle nesting areas. Miniature golf, croquet and deep-sea fishing are available, and supervised activities are offered to children between 6 and 14. +At the 102-unit Hilton Head resort, accommodations include studio units, one- and two-bedroom houses and villas for up to 12 people surrounding a central lodge and accessible to an oceanfront beach house with a snack bar, a pool and an arcade with pinball machines and other electronic games. Nearby dunes are the breeding grounds for loggerhead sea turtles. +At both resorts, individuals may participate in a version of a time-share arrangement in which members own real estate interest, but not particular guest accommodations. Children 17 and younger accompanying an adult may stay free. Rates to May 31 in Vero Beach begin at $79 a person a night in double occupancy during the week, $89 on weekends, for a minimum of three nights.

Beginning Wednesday, Air France is scheduled to offer five round trips a week between Kennedy Airport and Charles de Gaulle in Paris on the supersonic craft, and British Airways will have six weekly round trips between New York and Heathrow in London. +The round-trip fare between New York and London is $12,652; for Paris, it is $10,404. Air France offers a 50-percent discount on a companion fare, meaning that two people can fly to Paris and back for $15,606. Diane Cornman, an Air France spokeswoman in New York, said that sales have been good and are expected to get better because the typical Concorde passenger is a business traveler who usually books within three days of a trip. The Air France flights are scheduled to leave New York at 8 a.m. and arrive in Paris at 5:45 p.m. In the other direction, takeoff is 10:30 a.m. with arrival in New York at 8:25 a.m. Service to London is scheduled to depart at 12:15 p.m. and arrive at 9:10 p.m.; from London, it leaves at 10:30 a.m. and arrives at 9:25 a.m. +John W. Lampl, a British Airways spokesman, said that some flights filled quickly, helped in part by a $4,999 round-trip promotional fare that has since expired. 'It's very brisk,' he said of the pace of ticket sales. 'It's doing well.' +The Concorde fleet was grounded after one of the planes crashed on July 25, 2000, shortly after takeoff from Paris, killing all 109 people on board and 4 on the ground. Investigators concluded that a piece of metal on the runway punctured a tire on the plane, and the force of the blowout cut a hole in a fuel tank, starting a fire.

The airlines say that the three alliances, which together cover about 70 percent of all domestic passengers, will give consumers more choices, lower fares and improved service. +But critics have denounced the proposed linkups, arguing that any benefits they may bring will be far outweighed by the lack of competition that is likely to result. +'We assume that members of an alliance are not going to compete strenuously with one another,' said Alfred Kahn, who presided over the deregulation of the airline industry 20 years ago and is now professor emeritus at Cornell University. +In June the General Accounting Office, the investigative arm of Congress, released a preliminary assessment of the deals. It found that the alliances would reduce the number of competing airlines on 1,836 of the 5,000 busiest routes, which account for 90 percent of total domestic traffic. Historically, the G.A.O. said, when competition declines, fares rise. It estimated that 100 million of the 396 million passengers who fly each year faced potential disadvantages, compared with potential benefits for about 30 million passengers on 338 routes. +The airlines have announced the deals at a time when they are reporting record profits and their best customers -- business travelers -- are complaining about high fares and overcrowded planes. +Sensing a potent election-year issue, members of Congress have denounced the high fares, proposing a half dozen bills to promote competition. But it is unclear what the Government can do to stop the alliances. +Each of the proposed linkups is slightly different. Northwest and Continental plan to code-share -- meaning that each carrier will sell its partner's flights as if they were its own -- forming a global network from Asia to South America. The deal requires the approval of the antitrust division of the Justice Department because Northwest proposes to buy a controlling stake in Continental. The department has also asked for information from United and Delta, which plan to code-share but will exclude their European operations and will not invest in each other. +American and US Airways plan only to open up their frequent-flier programs and airport lounges to each other's members, something planned in the two other alliances also. That does not require Government approval, although the Department of Transportation does have the power to intervene if it believes that passengers are being adversely affected. +At first glance, linking frequent-flier programs appears to be a consumer boon. For example, as of Aug. 1, holders of US Airways' Dividend Miles can use their miles to fly American to Hawaii, a popular destination that US Airways does not now serve. But adding US Airways' 20 million frequent-fliers makes the competition for the limited number of seats reserved for free tickets that much fiercer. Many passengers already complain that seats are not available when they try to redeem their miles. A recent Consumer Reports study found that domestic airlines last year booked 152,000 fewer free seats on routes most popular with frequent-fliers than they did in 1996. (Several airlines said they actually gave away more seats last year and accused the magazine of using misleading data.) +More troubling is the prospect that the alliances will reduce competition among the major airlines and strengthen their already strong hold on large metropolitan hubs. +United, Delta, Northwest and Continental all say that there is little overlap in their route systems and that by combining them they will be able to offer service to cities they currently do not serve. For example, someone living in Lincoln, Neb., which is now served by United, will be able to book a ticket straight through to Sarasota, Fla., which is served by Delta. +But only a small number of passengers fly such routes each year, compared with the millions who travel between United's hub in Denver and Delta's base in Atlanta. The two carriers now dominate air service between those cities, and critics say that they will have little incentive to compete once they are allied. +The G.A.O. also said that the alliances will strengthen the hold that the major airlines have at the four airports where the number of landings and takeoffs are strictly controlled -- Kennedy and La Guardia in New York, O'Hare in Chicago and National in Washington. That would make it even more difficult for small carriers to expand service at these key airports. Indeed, the G.A.O. and other critics say that the alliances threaten the major achievement of deregulation, which has been the competition introduced by new discount carriers. +TRAVEL ADVISORY: CORRESPONDENT'S REPORT" +False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Will Europe Be Ready for the Euro on Jan. 1? +BUYING an international train ticket at this city's main station is already a nightmarish experience on some days, with travelers often waiting for as long as an hour to talk to an agent. +So it was more than a little ominous when the train station released a study earlier this year of what could go wrong when the Netherlands and most other European countries start replacing national currencies with euro notes and coins on Jan. 1. If the ticket agents are not prepared with enough cash, or are not ready to accept guilders while making change in euros, the study suggested, waiting lines could swell from about 100 people to nearly 1,200. +Worst-case scenarios are usually worse than reality. But the warning did highlight one of the biggest headaches Europeans and people traveling in Europe face in switching to euros as a cash currency: for at least a few days after New Year's, businesses will struggle with countless customers who want to pay in their old currency and receive change in the new one. +Less than four months remain before euro notes and coins begin to replace the national currencies of 12 European nations. For travelers who hop back and forth across national borders, the ability to use one currency in most of Europe will come as a relief. But it could also come as a jolt, and officials are quietly worried about the potential for mischief amid the confusion. +Will hotels, restaurants and other businesses effectively raise their prices by rounding up to the next euro as they convert prices from lire or francs to euros? Will counterfeiters deploy fake bills before people learn how to recognize the euro's intricate security features? +But perhaps the biggest source of headaches will be the need to deal with two currencies simultaneously for as long as two months. Many of the people lining up to buy tickets at the Amsterdam station will be paying in their old currency, because euros will not become generally available until Jan. 1. But stores will be issuing change in euros, not only because the old currencies will soon cease to be legal tender but because customers will want to unload their old money. Cashiers will need two sets of cash drawers. If cash registers are not programmed to make a currency conversion, they will need calculators by their side. +It will be bad enough for the Dutch ticket agent and for tourists double-checking their change, who will have to divide guilders by 2.20371. But at least Dutch customers have an exchange rate that is not far from two to one, making it easier for them to perform rough price conversions in their heads. Consider the math facing store clerks in Italy, where one euro will be worth 1,936.27 lire. As of Jan. 1, a 3,000-lire ice-cream bar should cost 1 euro 54 cents. The change from a 10,000-lire bill would be 3.61 euros. +Travelers who arrive on Jan. 1 or later can simply start out with euros. But people who are traveling before the New Year will have to use the old currencies through Dec. 31, then start switching the next day. +This is hardly the first time a new currency has been introduced. Germany introduced West German marks across Eastern Germany after reunification in 1990. But the scale of this one is unprecedented: 12 countries across Europe will drop their old currencies and adopt the new one. Britain, Denmark and Sweden are the only European Union members that have refused to adopt the euro. The logistics entail 15 billion new bank notes and nearly 50 million coins. +Worried that counterfeiters would try to swindle people in the first days of the changeover, the European Central Bank refused to let the public see any real notes and coins until Aug. 30, and it will not let people touch them until the end of the year. +The bills do have elaborate counterfeiting safeguards, including a foil hologram that, when the bill is tilted, reveals the euro symbol and bill's denomination. +Beginning this month, national central banks across Europe will start shipping the new currency to banks, which will make it available to stores in November or December. Consumers will not lay their hands on any notes and coins until the last week of December, when they will be able to buy starter kits with enough money to make a few small purchases. +Across Europe, automated teller machines will be loaded up with euros in the early hours of the morning on Jan. 1. Currency exchange booths, including those in the United States, will be stocked and ready for business as well. +Big retailers, like Metro A.G. of Germany, are assuming that people will unload most of their old currency through stores rather than banks. At Metro, which owns everything from department stores to convenience stores, cash registers are already programmed to calculate change in euros. Executives say they will post prices in both German marks and euros, phasing out the mark prices over the next two months. +But many smaller shops may be less prepared. A European Commission survey found that, as of March, only a quarter of small- to medium-size businesses considered themselves ready for the euro. In the long run, the euro should make life easier for visitors to Europe. But those traveling right before or after the switch should acquire as little of the old currencies as possible, use credit cards and carry a calculator. +TRAVEL ADVISORY: CORRESPONDENT'S REPORT" +False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,True,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,True,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,False,"Two Colorado Dance Festivals +Western Colorado will be the site of an avalanche of dance programs this summer.

United, for example, said that its trans-Atlantic fares would be competitive with American's. The two will be competitors on the New York-London route, having bought the rights from T.W.A. and Pan American.

Among these are a free-form maze of winding trails, a geometric labyrinth of shrubs, a grass maze and herbarium, greenhouse and laboratory, where children can take part in a hands-on study of plants. Along the way, children can play among giant topiaries shaped like frogs, butterflies and bugs. +The $9 million garden is the showpiece of the Botanical Garden's $15 million Children's Adventure Project, intended to enhance science education and integrate environmental education into the New York City public school curriculum. The garden, which received nearly $1 million from the National Science Foundation, conforms to science education standards set by New York State. The garden's educational facilities are aimed at children aged 5 to 12. 'But the site itself is for children of any age,' Ms. Cohn said. +The New York Botanical Garden is at 200th Street and Kazimiroff Boulevard (formerly Southern Boulevard) in the Bronx. Open Tuesday through Sunday. General admission to the gardens is $3 (free all day Wednesday and Saturday from 10 A.M. to noon); admission to the Adventure Garden is $2 for ages 6 and over; $1 for ages 3 to 5; free for 2 and under.

There is a way to get around the penalty, which is usually about $25, but it requires a bit of planning. +More and more airlines are assessing penalties, known as prepay charges, for travelers who book an advance-purchase seat through a travel agent but get the ticket issued at the airport. There is a way to get around the penalty, which is usually about $25, but it requires a bit of planning. +Travelers who use out-of-town travel agents may find that because the agent is hundreds of miles away, the agent may not be able to get the ticket to the customer's home or office before the day of departure. +The prepay charge is not imposed by airlines when the customer books a flight directly with the airline by phone, using a credit card, and then picks up the ticket at the airport. But many travelers prefer agents - to save time, perhaps, or in hopes of getting a good deal - and then go to the airport to get the ticket. When this happens the airlines' view is that the transaction has not been completed because while the reservation has been made and payment accepted, the ticket has not been issued. The travel agent sends an electronic message called a prepaid ticket advice (P.T.A.), to the airline. To cover the cost of bookkeeping and writing a ticket, the airlines say, a prepay charge - usually $25 for a domestic flight and $30 on many foreign flights - is imposed. +How to beat the pre-pay charge? Daniel T. Smith, a spokesman for the International Airline Passengers Association, a Dallas-based consumer group, recommends having the travel agent ship the ticket by overnight mail. Many agents have deals with couriers like Federal Express to deliver tickets for under $10. He also recommends trying to negotiate with the travel agent to absorb the cost of prepay charges. 'Particularly if you are a business, if your volume is high enough, anything is negotiable,' Mr. Smith said. Nonstop Flights To the Caymans +Vacationers bound for the Cayman Islands in the Caribbean will be able to fly nonstop from New York for the first time starting Dec. 15. Cayman Airways, the British colony's national carrier, will fly its new Boeing 737-400's from Kennedy International Airport in New York every Friday, Saturday and Sunday at 9 A.M., arriving at Grand Cayman at 12:45 P.M. Flights to New York from Grand Cayman will be at 8:30 P.M. on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, arriving at 12:15 A.M. +In previous winters, travelers from New York had to connect with Cayman Airways, Eastern or Northwest in Miami to get to the islands. +The 14-day economy excursion fare from New York is $399 round trip. The Boeing 737-400 carries 158 passengers. Informal Sales Of London Art +Visitors to London have a new opportunity to shop for contemporary art. The work of young artists is available at what the organizers describe as reasonable prices on an irregular monthly schedule at St. Peter's Church Hall, 59A Portobello Road, London (three minutes from the Notting Hill Gate Underground station). Two organizations working together stage either cash-and-carry exhibitions of emerging artists' work (about 200 exhibits) at prices from about $80 to $320 (calculating $:1 at $1.60) or art auctions at which both established and emerging artists can put their work on the block for a $16 fee. Ten percent of the proceeds from cash-and-carry sales is donated to the environmental charity ARK. +The cash-and-carry exhibits are organized by Art Events, Post Office Box 1958, Notting Hill, London W11 3PF (937 5897) and the art auctions by Griffin Contemporary Art Auctions, Post Office Box 1966, London W11 2EL (243 0192). It is worth checking on the events in advance since dates are irregular and extra shows are often organized. Starting in 1990, the aim is to have a show on the last Saturday of each month. Meanwhile, the next two are a cash-and-carry sale Dec. 2 and an auction Jan. 27. The organizers do not arrange shipping but will supply the phone number for a transport service. Lighting Up At Christmas Worldwide +Germany is the home of the Christmas tree, and every city and village in East and West Germany has one up on its central square in time for Advent. This year Advent begins Dec. 3, and the tradition may have a new poignancy because of the opening of the Berlin wall. +In Munich's Marienplatz the tree is to be decorated with electric candles and tinsel in front of the Town Hall on Friday. +In Frankfurt, the tree on the Romerberg, as the town hall is called, was installed a couple of weeks ago, but the lighting ceremony takes place on Friday, opening day of the Christmas Market. +There are four trees in Nuremberg, two on each side of the Frauen Church, the central point of the Christkindlmarkt. Their electric candles will be lighted this week. +The tree in front of Vienna's town hall, the Rathaus, is traditionally donated by one of the provinces. This year's tree is 86 feet high and 25 years old and comes from Salzkammergut. Its decorations were switched on last month. In London, the tree on Trafalgar Square will be illuminated Dec. 7. Closer to home, at Rockefeller Plaza in New York, a 70-foot Norwegian spruce, will shine with 18,000 lights beginning Dec. 4. Ceremonies start at 6 P.M. with caroling, dancing and ice skating. In Colonial Williamsburg, Va., the tree, another Norwegian spruce, won't be turned on until dusk on Dec. 24. +A lighting ceremony in Minneapolis was staged Thanksgiving Day after a parade with Dorothy Hamill as grand marshal. +In Washington, President Bush will light a 35-foot blue spruce that is permanently planted in the Elipse, the park behind the White House, at 5:50 P.M. on Dec. 14. At the same time, 50 state trees surrounding the national Christmas tree will be turned on by the President from a switch in the White House. Ceremonies begin with Willard Scott as emcee-Santa Claus. The theme: 'Families.' Seating is on a first-come basis. +There are at least two tree lightings in Seattle. One was at Westlake Center on Nov. 24; the other is on Dec. 6 when lights are switched on around the tree at 1001 Fourth Avenue Plaza. +In Denver, the neoclassical City and County Building becomes a giant 'tree' on Friday. About 300,000 watts will be used to illuminate multicolored floodlights lighting up the four-story building, which has a clock tower that is another four stories high. +TRAVEL ADVISORY Correction: January 7, 1990, Sunday, Late Edition - Final +A report in the Travel Advisory column on Nov. 26 about airline-ticket prepay charges referred incompletely to their use.

And for those who fly on a whim, the lowest walk-up fare is $209 one way (formerly $836) on that route; the highest full coach fare is now $499 one way. From Newark Liberty, the lowest walk-up fare to Miami is $241 one way.

All the airline's new Airbus 320's have been temporarily grounded following a crash that killed 97 people in Bangalore on Feb. 14. The airline is now relying mostly on its fleet of Boeing 737's, a much smaller plane. +Some planes from the international carrier Air-India have been brought into domestic service, but there have still been extensive schedule changes during the busy winter tourist season, and flights are being canceled or delayed daily, often without warning. The problem has been most acute on heavily used routes in northern India, especially Rajasthan, where tourists must vie with business travelers and politicians. +Travel agents say that when Indian Airlines changes its schedules, it does not automatically transfer passengers to other flights. Thus, arriving in India with a confirmed domestic reservation does not guarantee that it will be honored on rerouted or rescheduled flights, as several recent American visitors have reported to the Delhi bureau of The New York Times. +Another Indian airline, Vayudoot, which connects small airports to larger centers, has also curtailed its service considerably after two crashes in the last two years. A new helicopter service, Pawan Hans, has been completely grounded because of technical problems with the aircraft. +- BARBARA CROSSETTE +Maui Stargazing +Some resorts talk up their health spas, tennis courts and in-room safes. The Hyatt Regency Maui in Hawaii vaunts its prototype telescope with a computer programmed to locate and identify planets, star clusters, nebulae and galaxies. +The rooftop telescope atop the hotel's nine-story Lahaina Tower has stereo eyepieces that remain stationary no matter where the telescope is trained and a pneumatic chair that can be raised and lowered. Free viewing programs with an astronomer are available each night except Wednesday and Sunday from 8 to 9 P.M.; they have been so popular, the hotel says, that people have been turned away. Viewers also watch a slide show on various constellations and may search the sky with giant binoculars. Private sessions on the telescope are available for $35 an hour a person. +The telescope, which cost more than $30,000 according to the hotel, was developed by Bill Leighty of Juneau, Alaska, an electrical engineer. Viewing began in January and another computer was added to the telescope two weeks ago to assist with star selection. +London Marathon +The London Marathon, which acccepted nearly 30,000 runners for the 1989 event and says it is the world's largest, is reserving 2,000 places in this year's run on April 22 for overseas entrants. The official tour operator for foreign competitors and their families is Keith Prowse, which is offering four- and seven-night package tours that include a running place. Also covered by the packages, which are available at four price levels are round-trip flight from New York, Miami and other cities, hotel accommodations and a train or bus ticket from Charing Cross Station, London, to the start of the race. +The four-night plan costs from $841 to $964 a person ($43 less for nonrunners), in double occupancy, depending on hotel and airline (British Airways or Virgin Atlantic), and the seven-night, $954 to $1,227. (Keith Prowse, 234 West 44th Street, New York, N.Y. 10036; 800-669-8687.) The 26-mile, 385-yard course begins in Greenwich on the south side of the Thames and crosses the river at Tower Bridge near the Tower of London. The final mile is by Trafalgar Square and Buckingham Palace to Westminster Bridge. +52 Ways to Map Your Travels +Thanks to a psychology professor at Hofstra University, playing cards are no longer just for games. Bridge and gin enthusiasts - or even people who don't play - can find their way about town in London or New York by using a Map Deck, a standard deck of cards that has maps of sections of the cities printed on the face of each card. +The cards were designed by Dr. J. Richard Block, who collects unusual cards and has written and lectured on their art and history. He is now preparing decks for Boston, Amsterdam and Washington. +Each card in a Map Deck details a small area of the city, showing major streets and places of interest. Travelers need look at only one card (covering an area of about three-quarters of a mile by half a mile) when finding their way around a specific section. When placed together like a jigsaw puzzle, the 52 cards form a complete map of the center of the city measuring about 18 by 25 inches. With each pack - which includes three jokers - there is a pamphlet indicating the card on which each destination is found. For example, in the London deck a map of the Tower of London area is shown with the seven of hearts. +Dr. Block, who was chairman of the the psychology department at Hofstra for 11 years and now teaches part-time, says a set of map cards produced in England in 1676 showed a county of England and Wales on each card. The London and New York decks cost $6 plus $1.50 for shipping from Y & B Associates, 33 Primrose Lane, Hempstead, N.Y. 11550. +Copenhagen Porcelain Show +Visitors to Christianborg Palace in Copenhagen this summer will for the first time be able to see two tables of the original Flora Danica service, the largest single 18th-century porcelain service of any royal household in Europe. The collection is being put on display from May 24 to Sept. 30 by Queen Margrethe II in celebration of her 50th birthday. The event also marks the 200th anniversary of the service. +One of the tables, in the dining hall of the palace, will display the dinner setting, the other the dessert setting. Both tables will also feature the royal gold and silver tableware and the coffee and tea service. Originally, the Flora Danica consisted of 1,802 pieces as a service for 100 people. There are now 1,530 pieces, still used at state dinners. The china is decorated with copies of the old copper prints of Nordic plants that appeared in Flora Danica, the Latin title of volumes of botanical drawings that appeared in Copenhagen in the 18th century. +The Queen has asked that guides be present every Tuesday to assist the disabled in viewing the exhibit. +Christianborg Palace is open every day from 10 A.M. to 4 P.M. and on Wednesday until 9 o'clock. Admission to the china exhibit will be about $3. +U.S. HOTELS CATERING TO JAPANESE +Miso soup and pickled cabbage for breakfast - in Boston?

A chest-high barrier separates it from the concourse on one side, and defining the other are glass walls overlooking airport operations. The complex includes a two-story control tower with a view of the play area and the outdoors. There are a play cargo plane with loading ramps, one of them a slide, and a cockpit and crawl-through tunnels. A 10-foot copy of the Sears Tower made from Lego pieces stands over a place for play with the larger Duplo blocks. There is also a play ticket counter.
