M acias S tate P ress The A rizona S tu d en ts’ A ssociation is attempting to ease the cost of attending school by asking the Arizona Board of Regents to move its tuition hearings up to January. ASA Executive Director Patrick McWhortor said the organization will lobby the ABOR to decide on tuition prior to the spring legislative session, at which time university budgets are determined. . McWhortor said if the change is implement­ ed, students will no longer be subsidizing the universities’ budget deficits through tuition hikes. “We would .rather see the tuition decision made based upon the affordability for students and their parents,” McWhortor said. “What are students and their parents able to afford and what is the financial aid available to assist stu­ dents who can’t afford to pay tuition on their own? tu itio n d e c is io n “The policy reason to move up (the tuition hearing) is to look at tuition in that context rather than seeing how big our budget deficit is from state appropriations and then rilling that with a tuition increase.” Jim Roybal, ASA delegate and chairman of ASA’s tuition accountability committee, said it is an “undue burden for students” to have to cover any university budget deficit. “When you set tuition in the spring, there is an inclination to set tuition according to filling a potential budget shortfall,” Roybal said. The regents moved the tuition hearings to the spring last year from the trad itio n al fall semester. The move resulted in a record 16 per­ cent tuition hike. Regent Rudy Campbell said it is difficult for the ABOR to project tuition costs before state appropriations because the universities’ budgets are not yet set. “We d o n ’t even talk about tuition until T u rn t o ASA, page 2 . Students help raise funds for quake victims in India An ASU student is followed by his shadow at the Business O w ing Building on Monday afternoon. By J oy E. B eason State P ress Indian students at ASU have come together to raise money in an effort to help victims of the earthquake in their home country. “We (m em bers o f the Indian Student Association) are trying to develop a fund to help people over there,” said Gouthan Dindigal, an environm ental en g in eerin g niajor from A ndhrabradsh, In d ia and Indian Student Association (ISA) member. “We had a prayer for the people who have been suffering there.” The quake, which measured at 6.4 on the Richter scale, occurred last Thursday in Killari of Maharashtra, India. At least 30,000 people have died from the quake, while another 150,000 have been left homeless. The ISA is com plem enting the Indian Association in Phoenix by creating an Indian earthquake relief fund. According to ISA member Mukund Shenoy, donations have already totaled $ 1,000 since the account was opened on Friday. The students are giving the money to the Times o f India, which is India’s equivalent to the New York Times. According to Dindigal, the newspaper is a very credible organization that reports its dona­ tions in every Wednesday’s paper. Students said they were stricken with imme­ diate concern once they heard of the earthquake. “I called my parents im m ediately,” said Shenoy, a computer systems and manufacturing engineering major from Bombay. “They said they woke up in the middle of the night as a result of the tremors. Some structures had fallen. They are really shocked.” Shenoy said his family was not affected by the quake, but is still experiencing aftershocks. He has not returned to India since arriving at ASU two years ago but plans to visit soon. T urn to Earthquake, page 2. Theta D elta Chi expels members for destruction Others admit breaking windows B y M axwf.i .1. H iggins State P ress The Theta Delta Chi fraternity has expelled one member who allegedly caused most of the damage which destroyed the fraterni­ ty’s house over the Aug. 21-22 weekend. Mike Ahmann, president of Theta Delta Chi’s housing corpo­ ration, said Monday that fraternity officials have expelled the member. However, Ahmann said he was not certain of the mem­ ber’s identity, since an ASU Department of Public Safety investi­ gation is still pending. Attempts on Monday to reach ASU DPS Chief Craig Emanuel were unsuccessful. Ahmann said that a few other members have admitted to get­ ting caught up in the moment and breaking one window each. INSIDE STA TE PR ESS W eather Outlook Partly cloudy with a threat of rain in late afternoon. High 98, low 75. Meanwhile, ASU Vice President of Student Affairs Christine Wilkinson will meet with three of the fraternity’s senior alumni on Thursday to discuss the possible reinstatement of the banished fra­ ternity. Ahmann said that alumni think they still have a chance to keep the fraternity on campus. At several meetings over the last few weeks, alumni have raised enough money to pay the back rent, plus rent for this semester, he said. Paying off the rent debt should allow the fraternity to tap into reserve funds held by the University for the upkeep of fraternity houses, Ahmann said. Between the reserve funds and additional money raised by alumni, the housing corporation should be able to put the house in better condition than before the damage, he added. “We have several alumni in the construction and property management business," Ahmann said. “Many of them are willing to do the repairs for free or at cost.” . ► ASU’s English department , continues to try and rescue an alumnus from war-tom Zaire.

In addition to the disciplinary action, the University recently succeeded in terminating Theta Delta Chi’s lease on the house, on grounds that the fraternity owes more than $18,000 in back rent. Wilkinson was not available for comment Monday, but Dean of Student Development and Residential Life Jim Rund said the decision to reinstate the fraternity is solely up to Wilkinson. Alumni said they are hopeful that a solution can be reached with the University despite its prior unwillingness to negotiate. “Our intentions are good. We want to clean house, literally and figuratively,” Ahmann said. “We’d like to have time to get work done on the house and take care of disciplinary actions. We may reduce the number of undergraduates, if necessary.” Sports ASU football coach Bruce Snyder is concerned about Washington State’s threat to use a wish­ bone offense against the Sun Devils.

The area does not have the services to aid victims and is difficult to reach because transportation is poor.

Attempt to rescue ASU alumnus, family from Zaire depends on visa By J ames f rusetta State P ress The attempt to rescue an ASU alumnus and his family from v o latile Z aire cu rren tly hangs upon the Im m igration and Naturalization Service granting a visa. “We have raised almost enough money to cover fare on Air France — they’re giving us a break,” said ASU English professor Marvin Fisher. “There will still be funds necessary for resettle­ ment of the family.” The difficulty remains in obtaining a visa for Ben-And Makele and his family. Under INS policy Makele would be considered an economic rather than a political refugee, Fisher said. Makele received his doctorate in English at ASU in 1988 after completing his thesis, “Primitivism and Colonialism in Selected Works of Melville, Conrad and Achebe.” With the completion of his degree, Makele returned to Zaire to teach. ' “He had a university position there as an associate professor — then the universities closed,” Fisher said. Zaire has been subject to turmoil and unrest for several years. One of the chief factors Fisher noted was the extensive corruption in the govemmej$. ’ “The country has been looted by the president (Mobutu) makes Marcos look like an amateur.” Although Makele’s family has not yet been hurt in the vio­ lence, letters Makele wrote to Fisher say his house has been looted twice by soldiers. “He hasn’t been targeted, but where there’s turmoil and unrest it can be directed toward those with higher academic degrees and ties to the West,” Fisher said. “Things have gone from bad to worse.” ASU students and faculty members as well as local community figures have hosted benefits and raised money for the family since last SpringAnyone interested in assisting Makele may contact Fisher at the English Department or the Grace Community Church in Tempe.

(AP) <— Arizona has the nation's 20th worst poverty rate, the government said Monday in a report t h a t . fo u n d the num ber o f poor Americans grew by 1.2 million m 1992. The Census Bureau said there were 36.9 million poor Americans last year, accounting t o 14.5 percent of the popu­ lation. T hat was up three-tenths of a point from 1991 and die highest poverty rate since 15.2 percent in 1983. Arizona’s poverty rate was 15.1 per­ cent. Analysts blamed stubborn unemploy­ ment and declining social services in the aftermath of die recession. The 1992 poverty line for a family of four was $14,335. For someone living alone, it was $7,143. Overall, the number of poor people was the most since 38.6 million were counted in 1962. Bin because of popula­ tion growth, last year’s poverty rate remained well below the 21 percent fig­ ure of John F. Kennedy’s days. A nd in a report sure to provide ammunition t o the Clinton administra­ tion’s health care reform plan, the gov­ ernment said 37.4 million Americans, or 14.7 percent o f the population, lacked : health insurance in 1992, an increase of 2 million. m ay pose h ealth risk , U ofA p ro f says TUCSON (AP) — Automobile a it bags may save lives on the road, but chemicals in the devices could pose a health hazard after a car is junked, a pro­ fessor says. At the scrap yard, the chemicals that inflate air bags can combine with ground water to create a lethal substance with a toxicity similar to the hydrogen cyanide used in gas cham bers, said E ric A. Betterton, an assistant professor of atmo­ spheric sciences at the University o f Arizona. “It is not a big problem now , but eventually it could be,” Betterton said. Air bags were ordered in all new cars by 1998 by th e N ational H ighw ay T raffic Safety Administration, which estim ates the devices can save 2,(WO lives each year. A ir bags are inflated by chemicals called sodium azides. When a bag's sen­ sors detect a collision, the azides convert to nitrogen and inflate die bag. A harm­ less gas, which is 78 percent nitrogen, then escapes back into the atmosphere. The danger arises when vehicles are sent to the scrap yard with air bags that have not been detonated, he said. 5 When a vehicle is scrapped, the can­ ister that holds the azides might be tom open and the chemicals released into the ground, the researcher said, possibly muting with acidic ground water H I hydrazoic acid, he added. ;. PHOENIX (AP) — Former Arizona House Speaker Jane Hull resigned her H ouse se a t M onday announced that she is a ■ Hard-line defenders of the W hite House carry white flags as they leave the scorched Russian Parliament building to surrender to forces loyal to Russian President Boris Yeltsin. Parliament building takes beating from tanks, fires MOSCOW (AP) — Boris Yeltsin_won a bloody victory in the battle for Russia’s future Monday, his tanks and paratroopers flushing his hard-line opponents from a flaming Russian‘par­ liament building. Scores died as Yeltsin crushed the strongest power bid yet by remnants of the old Communist regime. The mass surrender of lawmakers and their armed supporters seemed likely to allow Yeltsin to move ahead with plans to elect a new parlia­ ment in December and pursue long-frustrated economic reforms. But he still faced daunting challenges in his effort to transform Russia’s economy and society. Parliament leaders gave up after 1,000 sol­ diers raked the white marble parliament relent­ lessly w ith fire from T-72 tank cannons and heavy machine guns, but at least some holdouts remained at large. After nightfall, red and green tracer bullets streaked across the sky as flames shot up the sides of the parliament, known as the White House. Armored vehicles and heavy trucks rum­ bled through the city, and Muscovites rushed home to beat a new military curfew. Snipers continued to fire from the White House and surrounding buildings. The search t o holdouts was difficult because the 19-story par­ liament building is an often-confusing labyrinth of twisting corridors and hidden rooms. The storming of the White House broke hard­ line opposition in parliament, but many people harbor deep resentm ent against the soaring prices and other painful changes under Yeltsin’s reforms. The attack also could make martyrs of his opponents. President Clinton and other Western leaders were quick to support Yeltsin, but they can be expected to closely watch how he treats his foes in the coming days and weeks. Parliament speaker Ruslan Khasbulatov, Vice President Alexander Rutskoi and other leaders of the two-week occupation of the White House were taken from parliament to the high-security Lefortovo Prison. Escalating their defiance of Yeltsin’s dissolu­ tion of parliament on Sept. 21, armed hard-liners captured the Moscow mayor’s offices and tried to take Russia’s main television center Sunday. Parliament leaders urged supporters to topple Yeltsin, whose reforms had been continually undermined by the Communist-dominated legis­ lature. Yeltsin spent the day closeted with his closest aides in the Kremlin, where he had remained overnight since rushing there by helicopter dur­ ing Sunday’s street righting. Late Monday, he returned to his country dacha. He struck back just after dawn Monday with the assault on the parliament building-. “All that was and still is going on in Moscow — was an armed revolt planned in advance,” he said on nationwide television, explaining the attack while it was still raging. “It was organized by Communists seeking revenge, by fascist leaders and some of the for­ mer lawmakers.... There can be no forgiveness, because they lifted their hand against peaceful people” in Sunday’s rioting, he added. Authorities had no firm figures on casualties from the 10-hour battle at the White House, but soldiers stacked dozens of bodies outside the building. Russian television reported that Sunday’s battle at the TV complex alone left 62 dead and 400 wounded.

The latest word from Theta Delia Chi u that the fraternity has expelled the memi>er who “allegedly” caused the m assive dam age last August. Now, Student Affairs Vice President Christine Wilkinson says she will meet with members of the fraternity to talk about its possible reinstate­ m ent It’s nice that the fraternity has taken steps to discover the culprit for the damage in their little mini-purge, but does this mean die fraternity should be reinstated? After all, the behavior the University has seen before does not exactly indicate that the frateffltty is a pleasant member of the A S0 community. One can only hopethat Wilkinson *--* whom Residential Life says is the sobs arbiter o f this j decision — will keep in mind it few questions about any future reinstatement. First, Theta Delta Chi says they plan on set­ tlin g the $18,000 ih b ack r e n t d ue th e University. To be blunt, when does ASU see the money? Before or after the new rental agree­ ment is signed? . If the fraternity doesn’t plan to pay unless the University allows reinstatem ent, some would call that blackm ail. Regardless o f w hat the University does, the group o w es$ l8,000. Second, will damages be paid for before or after reinstatement? Theta Delta Chi President Mike Ahmann said that alumni o f die chapter will assist in the repairs. It’s difficult believing the fraternity will pay damages if It can’t even pay its rent. It is encouraging that the chapter plans on making repairs to the house, but die impression one gets from the filing of bankruptcy is th a t if the fraternity is reinstated, the repairs ace done. Otherwise, nada. Finally, what is the fraternity going to do to ensure an event such as this doesn’t happen again? Are any concrete steps going to be taken, j or will we ju st see a facelift tmtil the next orgy of destruction? There is no reason why a truly repentant T heta D elta Chi should not be reinstated to j ASU’s G reek system . The guileful fraternity members aren’t evil monstrosities, they’re just it unruly bunch o f punks who got out o f control. But unless Wilkinson and the University as a whole are convinced the fraternity has not just undergone a token whitewash, is it worth the effort to reinstate a chapter gone bad?

And the nation's health care system is not taking them seriously. Breast cancer and heart disease are two of this country’s greatest slayers of women, yet the American medical profession is unwilling to spend the tim e and money to focus on these killers — although, ironically enough, it is perfectly willing to focus on the same diseases when men are stricken. According to statistics compiled by the National Breast Cancer Coalition, one out of nine women will develop breast cancer in her lifetime. The risk in 1-960 was one out of 14. This year, a new case of the illness will be diagnosed every three minutes, and a woman will die from it every 12 minutes. By the time you finish this column, another woman will be dead from breast cancer. In 1993, 182,000 new cases of the disease will be diagnosed, and 46,000 American women will die from the epidemic. According to the leader of the North Dakota National Breast Cancer Coalition, 1.6 million American women are living with breast cancer, and an additional one million don’t know they have the disease yet. It is no surprise that a disease that effects primarily women is low-ranking in America’s health care agenda. “Women’s issues,” after all, have been traditionally and w rongly devalued in the patriarchal political realm ... but that could be a whole other col­ umn. This month, the National Breast Cancer Coalition will present over 2.6 million signatures to President Clinton demanding that more research money be allocated to breast cancer research. Hopefully, with the new health plan, breast cancer will become a priority. This still leaves out the larger problem, heart disease — a killer of 240,000 women every year. Stroke kills an additional 88,000. Among American women, coronary heart disease is the num­ ber one cause o f death. A ccording to the A m erican H eart Association; heart attacks kill about six times as many women as breast cancer does. When women go see physicians with chest pains, doctors are less likely to diagnose them with heart problems, because they are traditionally thought to be exempt from heart disease. According the article, “Are W omen’s Hearts Different?” appearing in the New York Times Magazine, a number of studies show that women are less likely to receive medicine and emergen­ cy treatment for the muscle damage caused by a heart attack. One problem with discovering heart problems in women is that the tests designed for detecting problems are designed for men. Why? Because all medical studies found in textbooks from which medicine is taught were tested only on men. The breast tissue does not allow doctors to accurately scan (by thallium scanning) the heart, because there are riot yet tests designed specifically enough to accurately scan women. Thus, problems with a woman’s heart are not detected until it’s too late. Also, women are only half as likely to be offered heart surgery — even if the heart disease is as severe as am an’s . Another problem is th a t some doctors are clearly genderbiased. They often tell women that the pain is psychological dis­ tress rather than physical, and that there is no risk of them dying. Therefore, women may go on with a fatal condition and possibly die from a wrong diagnosis. The q u estio n rem ains: Are women’s hearts different, or are doctors tak in g a sexist approach to women and heart dis­ ease? i vAnd if a sexist approach exists, does it extend into psycho­ logical treatment as well? D octors are prescribing medicine rather than dealing with the problems that make women — as well as men —- depressed. In today’s economy, there are cer­ tain ly -reasons to be less than cheerful. This Creates the illusion that women are sick, rather than that their emotions are normal given the conditions of their sur­ roundings, and the only way that they can become “well” is through Prozac. Traditionally, women have not been taken seriously in the world of medicine, and because o f that, women’s health has not been taken seriously by practicing physicians. Because so many women are dying from the lack of concentra­ tion on women and their health, there needs to be improvements in technology and funding to encompass women and their health. With the revamping of the nation’s health care, women need to band together in order to improve the heath of women and make the changes needed in order to survive. Some doctors are clearly genderbiased. They often tell women that the pain is psychological distress rath er than p h ysica l, a n d th at there is no risk o f them dying. Therefore, women may go on with a fatal condition and possibly die from a wrong diagnosis. s TALBOTT SMITH, Editor JASON OWSLEY, Managing Editor City Editor T A t e t y K ® A - S f f l i t R A .^ i * « t^ . . , 4 a « t - t * y B * t » ANGELA p F ^ r v - u c N ew.

A student interviewed by the State Press commented that, “They could’ve purchased twice as many (computers) if they got less powerful ones that are still more than adequate for the appli­ cations.” The statement, coming from a “computer engineering” student, leaves the negative impression that somehow the University seri­ ously erred in the technology needs analysis or in the purchasing process. This impression cannot stand unchallenged. As to the technology issue, it is an overused understatement to say that technology is rapidly changing. Whatever is acquired now will be technically obsolete in two to three years, because of the ever increasing demand for memory, disk, and computation capacity. By purchasing PC486 systems, the University stretched by perhaps a year, the effective useful time for those systems, sav­ ing tens of thousands of dollars of time and effort in upgrade costs. The suggestion that buying less of a system (i.e. PC286 or PC386 based technology) would have doubled the number of sys­ tems purchased, is a naive exaggeration of the price difference between systems. At retail, there is about a 38 percent cost differ­ ence between the least expensive PC386 base system (necessary to run MS Windows) and a base PC486. Add in the necessary memory, monitors and hard drives to make the systems functional in a college lab setting across a spectrum of applications, and the overall price savings is cut, at retail, to about 20 percent. Tiying to stretch those dollars by “low balling” the systems would have been a disaster for the University, and a source of justifiable criti­ cism from the students. As it turned out, ASU Purchasing, through an aggressive bid, paid near PC386 prices for PC486 technology. As a taxpayer, with a vested interest in the efficient expendi­ ture of my hard earned tax dollars, I am satisfied that those dollars were well spent. It is a gross disservice to the technical staff who analyzed the needs, and to Purchasing who acquired the systems, to imply that somehow the University could have done twice as well as they did, or that students were somehow mistreated in the process. The “disservice” occurs only if that impression is left to stand. Galen Updike CLH International & ACT Computers To quote a well known second year law student “The goal of affirmative action is to someday get rid of affirmative action.” Anyone with sense knows that a permanent A.A. program is unfair to the white majority, creates ill will toward minorities and uselessly drains our tax dollars. For those who claim that affirmative action works every time a black or Hispanic gets a lucrative job, you’re fooling yourselves. Such reasoning justifies inefficiency and outrageous waste even if only one minority benefits. No. A reasonable person would either scrap the program, or at least modify the program to make it much more efficient. A long standing program benefiting but a few minorities is only marginally successful and bound to cause ill will and resentment toward the very people it’s designed to bene­ fit Nor is there much merit to the argument that beneficiaries of AA will have children and that those children and their children’s children will magically uplift the whole race into economic harmonyx. Do the math. For every minority that enters the middle class and has 2.2 kids, there is a lower class minority having 6 kids. There’s always going to be more kids growing up in the ghetto than in the middle class. We can’t rely on the middle class to give birth to miracle workers. Nor can we assume that all who currently benefit from AA will implement its goals. What we need are dedicated role models in the here and now who won’t sell out and disappear into the “Anglo” community. Therefore I opt for mandatory communi­ ty service requirements for all affirmative action candidates ... or at least a requirement that all candidates have been actively involved in their community prior .to admission. One black Mother Teresa is worth more than a dozen Clarence Thomas’s. „ ■ Senior, aeronautical technology •J “The ZBT says the entire Greek system is guilty of institutional racism yet they have no proof.

As I nestled my way into my seat, struggling to get comfortable for the next few hours, I noticed a peculiar odor. The seat was permeated with the smell of cigarette smoke. Although smoking has recently been banned on all domestic flights, the smell, offensive and per­ manent, seems to be here to stay. Every time I leave a nightclub or restaurant, eyes itchy and burning, my clothes continue to reek of smoke, while my body has been subjected to unknown permanent damage. To solve this problem, I suggest that smoking be banned from all public locations, both indoor and outdoor. I am a healthy 33-year-old male. I do not smoke or drink and try diligently to work out at the gym 3 to 4 days a week. I watch what I eat and maintain a healthy lifestyle. When and if I choose to go out in public, I would only hope that I am not somehow con­ taminating my body. Recent studies have indicated that secondary smoke, or the passive inhaling of cigarette smoke has an adverse effect on non-smoking individuals. The American Cancer Society estimates that “3700 lung cancer deaths, nearly 3 percent of the annual lung cancer death toll, have been caused by involuntary smoking. Involuntary smoking also causes heart disease, aggra­ vates asthmatic conditions, and impairs blood circulation.” Many restaurants try and cater to both the smokers and nonsmokers by offering separate seating sections. However, tobacco smoke spreads quickly and even if you do not sit next to smokers, the smoky air within the building may be harmful. The non-smok­ ers’ rights are violated merely by breathing. There are laws to keep non-drinkers safe from those who over-indulge, i.e. DU1 laws; why stop there? A law prohibiting public smoking, knowing the affect inflicted upon others, makes good sense. The medical research on the harmful affects of smoking should be evidence enough to outlaw the salé of cigarettes as a health hazard if it were not for the economic power of the tobacco indus­ try producers. It is through their lobbying efforts that we have an increase in the number of young teens smoking, despite public service announcements and advertising. If smoking was banned in public places, these young adults would stop contaminating the air I breathe and be forced to legally smoke at home where parental guidance would hopefully occur. Smoking would no longer be seen as the “cool” thing to do. Exposure to other people’s smoke raises the risk of developing lung cancer and several other diseases which decrease the quality of your life. I do not want to be another statistic in a medical study. The “Great American Smoke-out” was a good place to start, however, we should extend it to the other 364 days in the year, and instead have an annual smoker appreciation day.

P age 9 Tuesday, October 5,1993 St a t e P ress Campus group begins circulating recycling petition By Louis P orter State P ress A coalition of campus groups is gearing up to collect 20,000 signatures to show ASU administrators that the student body sup­ ports an expansion Of the school’s recycling program. Petitions were distributed Friday to several organizations, including th e R esidence H all A ssociation, said Jonalyn Leadbetter, one o f the coalition’s leaders. Leadbetter said current recycling efforts by Physical Plant Were under-funded and in need of student support. “We are trying to get together a proposal where we can help them and show them that the students want a lot more, and that we need a comprehensive recycling program,’’ said Leadbetter, a senior philosophy major. “We are Risking that they expand and that they make sure that (a bin) goes by every dumpster and every garbage can on campus, within all the residence halls — not just in the academic places.” Leadbetter also said the MU administration board was plan­ ning a recycling program and that it would likely be serviced by the Physical Plant. The coalition hopes to get at least 90 percent of students living in residence halls to sign the petition before collecting signatures on the malls, Leadbetter said. ASU Recycling Coordinator Ray Walker said a plan that would include help from students in maintaining'and servicing a recycling system would be “unworkable.” “I’ve been here 14 months, and in those 14 months I’ve had dozens of offers for student help,” Walker said. “To date, not one (student) has come forward. “I’ve had promises from Jonalyn (Leadbetter) that she would get me all kinds of student help out here to sort. That has been at least two months. Not one has shown up yet. “Students are not reliable for that purpose: They’ve got other things on their agenda, like getting an education.” Gary Starikoff, an ASU graduate Who spearheaded a yearlong effort to increase recycling on campus, said he was “real disap­ pointed” with the cooperation he got from ASU administration when organizing the campaign.

(AP) — Tammy Faye Bakker married an old family friend while her ex-husband, fallen televan­ gelist Jim Bakker, serves time in prison for fraud, She exchanged vows in this desert resort Sunday with Kansas developer Roe Messner, who built much of the Heritage USA Christian complex in Fort Mill, S.C., for the Bakker’s PTL min- r istry. ' ; “Tammy sang ‘Jesus Loves Me’ with a prerecorded orchestra, ballad style. It was beautiful,” said Ruth Gibson, a society colum­ nist. The couple left in a white Rolls Royce and will honeymoon in Hawaii, said Baroness Beverly de Z’Aimant a guest. The Bakkers ended their 30-year marriage last year. Tammy Faye said she remains friends with Bakker, who is serving an eight-year prison sentence in Jesup, Ga., and is scheduled for release on Oct. 20,1994.

ALL CRIM INAL • D UI CASES E XP E R IE N C ED , A G G R ESSIVE T R IA L A T T O R N E Y S PAYMENT PLAN AVAILABLE PEOPLE The. nation does not understand that science is essential to. its future, Sagan said Sunday as he was inducted into the New Jersey Literary Hall of Fame at the Liberty Science Center. Science is not just a body of knowledge, but a way of thinking, said Sagan, the producer, director and announcer for the PBS series “Cosmos.” He called for a concentrated effort to teach sci­ ence to the American populace. “If not, we become easy marks to political charlatans,” Sagan said; ■ NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Garth Brooks and his wife, Sandy, are expecting their second child. The due date was not dis­ closed. “I just found out. I don’t know the details,” manager Pam Lewis said Monday.

ROME (AP) — Federico Fellini, recovering from a stroke in August, is hoping to return home soon and begin work on a new movie next year. Leo Pescarolo, who will produce Fellini’s next film, “Block Notes of a Director: The Actor,” said the 73-year-old director is expected to return to Rome on Oct. 20. Work on Fellini’s 21st feature film should, begin in February or March, Pescarolo said Monday at the Mediterranean Film Festival in Valencia, Spain, the Italian news agency ANSA reported. Fellini is eager to be back on the set, Pescarolo said. He said Fellini told a friend the new project would change because “this latest dramatic experience was the most nourishing of his life.” . Fellini is recovering in Ferrara, 50 miles southwest of Venice. After returning to Rome, he will continue therapy to improve the condition of his left arm. His left leg has recovered from the stroke. Fellini won Oscars for his films “La Strada,” “The Nights of Cabiria,” “8 1/2” and “Amarcord.” Many of his other films, including “La Dolce Vita,” have been widely acclaimed.
