Lawyers turn CRM process into name­calling verbal brawl

By Tom Anderson Staff Reporter Words such as "frivolous" and "crazy" were used by Kyung Sub's

legal counsel attorney Robert O'Connor to describe the claims of the House of Representatives that the Coastal Resources Management permit issued to Kyung Suh was improper. O'Connor's comments were equalled by House Legal Counsel Ray Smith as the CRM Appeals Board meeting Wednesday turned into an emotional confrontation between the two sides of the Kyung Suh issue.

At-00e point in the meeting~ Smith accused 0 'Connor of threatening to make things tough on him as an new attorney on Saipan ifhe "didn't back off' on his handling of the Kyung Suh affair. After the meeting O'Connor denied threatening Smith but did say they had exchanged letters and that he had pointed out to Smith that he could not legally represent House Speaker Pedro Guerrero if the CRM Appeals Board luted that Guerrero would be allowed to intervene in the permit process only as a private citizen and not as a representative of the House.

per kilo-watt hour. Listening to the comments

from the public and trying to re­spond were CUC Board Chair­man Jose Taitano, and Board Members Paz Younis, Bud White, Tom Piccaro and also Executive Director of CUC Pedro Sasamoto.

The hearing, held at the Caro­linian Utte in Garapan, stretched from 7 p.m. until 10 p.m. with some of the exchanges between the public and CUC's Board and staff becoming emotional and heated.

The position presented by CUC was that it must, under a mandate of law, become self-suf­ficient in the fiscal year 1989. Unless an increase is made in the rates collected for power from both residential accounts and commercial accounts, CUC could not hope to recover the costs of its operation. According to CUC figures it currently cost CUC 14.2cents per kilowatt hour to produce the power.

"It is just economic and good business sense," said Picarro. "I Continues on page 5

Bidding an old friend "adieu" is never pleasant, espe­cially if that friend has been a cornerstone in your devel­opment. So it is with the passing of the torch of federal justice in the Commonwealth of the Northern Marianas. The Honorable Federal DistrictJudgeAlfredLaureta will be leaving the CNMl very soon, and this newspaper will miss his presence and clear thinking.

Koreans and Philippine nationals who had settled here their American citizenship. .

The people of the Commonwealth have a lot to thank Laureta for. He forced the United States Government to live up to many portions of the Covenant which had been winked at for inany years, especially in the matter of­citi.ienship and passports.

deciding cases. During the decade he served the people of Saipan and the rest of the Marianas, Dame Justice was his companion. While we may or may not have agreed with what the jurist decided on emotional cases, we admire the professional way he did his job.

Laureta has been lauded in other media as being instru­mental in the formation of the road to justice here in the Commonwealth. They cited the Timingill Decision as one which touched many Micronesians. We agree to some extent, but feel that some of his later cases deserve just as much notice because they not only affected the finances of individuals, but their basic human rights.

Laureta's mark on the legal system of the Common­wealth will remain with us long after he has returned to his Hawaiian retirement home.

Alex Munson will have some very big shoes to fill when he takes over the robes and gavel of the district judgeship next month. He has had the benefit of many years of experience as the Trust Territory's Chief Justice and of being around Laureta. We hope that some of judge Lau­reta's wisdom can 'rub off' on Munson. It will be the best of both worlds.

In many ways Laureta is the personification of the people of the Commonwealth. Although a Filipino by birth, he calls the islands of Hawaii 'home,' and through that multi-ethnic background the judge probably has a greater appreciation for the myriad of cultural collision problems we all face here in this new Commonwealth.

Goodbye Judge Laureta. We wish you well in beautiful Hawaii. Remember that you always have another island home to come back to in which you have placed your legal signature.

One caller took exception the announced CUC policy ofbeing tougher on bill collection. "They'll just let them pay little by little," the caller said. ''They won't get disconnected, and I think they should be metered now so we people at Kagman can get their power."

"They should learn from MIC and cable 1V. If you don't pay, they cut you off."

*********************** Another caller said that she was a registered voter as well as

being the mother of six other voters in the Commonwealth. But, because she is also a government employee and feared "retali­ation," she couldn't give her name.

She said poker machines were owned mostly·by Willy Tan and a few local families. "I don't deny that the Northern Marianas have benefited from the income paid by the poker machineson licenses and taxes. The evil effects to the families, especially the children, far, far exceeds the benefits derived from the machines," she said. "I, therefore want to add my silent vote together, together with Joeten, Marianas Variety, Lee Holmes (although I can't stand this guy) to have the poker machines banned immediately. I don't believe we should wait until next election to ban the poker machines. The current legislature should get their act together and passa law banning the machines, and the. governor should sign it. I will watch closely . . if current legislature and the governor can't do anything about it, we will definitely vote against them next election.

YOUR OpiniOIV

Dear Editor: This is in response to Mr. A. J.

Bowie's letter to the Editor as published in your November 18th issue.

If my statement on poker ma­chines at the Saipan Chamber of Commerce meeting offended him as one of the several benefi­ciaries from the operation of poker machine, I extend my apol­ogy. I can understand his fear of economic loss that would result if our legislature wakes up to cor­rect this social menace.

Mr. A. J. Bowie's comments did not irritate me but rather caused loss of his credibility among the noble members of the Saipan Chamber of Commerce, who truly believe that these ma­chines should not continue oper­ating on Saipan and by unani­mous vote have agreed to support the ban.

Mr. Bowie further criticized Mr. Abed Younis for printing my concerns but would not comment against the Marianas Review for

carrying a more complete and exhaustive report. Instead, he -pursued a course of dodging the main issues, the moral and social aspects, which are the resultant effect of the use and operation of poker machines on the island. If banning these machines would result in the bankruptcy of the retirement fund, the result is obviously different on Guam and only time will tell that the use of the retirement fund as a scapegoat will not work. The people are speaking and the legislature should wake up from its deep slumber and listen to these con­cerns.

We are making contributions to the retirement fund. The fund is by and large supported by the general fund which is basically tax collections from all taxpay­ers. As a piece of information, Joeten Enterprises, Inc. alone employs much more than the number of employees employed by poker machine operators and

pays much more salaries paid by the poker industry. This does not include other dozen companies of which we are the majority stock­holders. Mr. Bowie simply does not know much and I would in­vite him should he wants te sat­isfy his curiosity. I could go on presenting comparative figures, but suffice to say that like any other businesses, the Joeten group of companies and their affiliates are contributing their fair share in the operation of this government. Much is to be said about our involvement in chari­ties, private parties, donations to churches, both cash and in kind, and other several noteworthy community activities.

Let me clarify some of the side issues Mr. A. J. Bowie introduced to confuse and mislead the pub­lic.

First, he is absolutely correct that I opposed J and G from coming to Saipan. What he failed Conrlnun on page 3

My T[IJtn By Tom Anderson, staff reporter

All opinions expressed herein may or may not reflect the editorial policies of this newspaper. They are strictly those of the author.

By Tom Anderson Knowing where you are,

where someone else is, what lies between the two points and how to go from here to there is one of the basic lesson of geog­raphy. Unfortunately for. the future of the United States, stu­dents and non-students alike are becoming more and more igno­rant of the maps, landfonns, political divisions and peoples of the world. ·

Survey after survey has been completed in the U.S. with some results so startling they are unbelievable. High School students putting countries in the Middle East down around Cen­tral America. Students not being able to say which is South and which is North on a map of the World. The man or woman on the street does not fare any better in the surveys either re­gardless of their age or level of education.

A few years back organiza­tions like the National Geo­graphic Society decided enough was enough and a push was started to try to putaknowl­edge of at least basic geography back into what every educated

person should know as part of their working knowledge of the world.

That effort has spread with Gov. Pedro P. Tenorio naming last week "CNMI Geography Awareness Week" and with an upcoming Na­tional Geographic Bee to be held Jan. 9 in the Commonwealth.

As someone who took a college minor in geography, I hope the ef­forts to improve geographic knowl­edge is successful and I hope more people will learn to appreciate what benefits a knowledge of geography can give to a person.

My interest began when I started traveling. Sometimes I would just go over a map of some part of the United States and be fascinated by the very names of the towns I would find. ! would wonder why a four roads go into Sweetwater Creek while only one road serves the impressively named town of Olym­pia. Later as I became more knowl­edgeable of the types of maps avail­able my fascination increased as I learned the names given to the land­fonns around me. It is one thing to notice the sharp rise of country coming from a basin area and an­other to know that rise in elevation marks the edge of an ancient sea or the effects of volcanic forces.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1988- MARIANAS VARIETY NEWS AND VIEWS -- PAGE 3

Besides being a study of place names and peoples, today geog­raphy is a study which also tries to answer the why's of situ­ations. Why, when you enter a city that dates back to the I.9th century does the city have the particular shape to it that exists? Sometimes the answers are so simple they shine with that luster which accompanies common sense. Such as town placements were once the direct result of how far people could usually walk in one day, or how far a person on horse back could travel. From Point A to point B was 20 miles because after 20 miles people wanted to rest, so an Inn was built and around the Inn there sprung up services to meet the demands of the Inn. Someone came along and sup­plied the food sold at the Inn, another came along and supplied the drink at the Inn, then came another and supplied other serv­ices like a livery, until enough people were there to call for a dry goods store.

All that and more is found in geography. I lament that such a useful study has fallen into such a decline while other less useful studies are riding a wave of popular culture.

And regardless of the turmoil which mankind has helped to produce on the earth, it is a beau­tiful and fascinating place. Its places should be known and ap­preciated. Geography can help this to happen.

Speaker's words were used at wrong place and time ....

Although I ha·1e been ultra-critical of the U.S. Govern­ment for some of its action out here, I felt somewhat uncomfortable however when it was criticized earlier this week for the late issuance of Title One war claims money. It was easy to use the phrase "should been" in this instant. But let me try to clarify this misgiving once and for all.

Certainly, leveling critical remarks against the U.S. Government may be good political fodder for posturing politicians. But I thought that on this one occasion the U.S. Government deserves some sincere words of praise and gratitude for having shouldered the fmancial responsibil-ity of the Government of Japan so to bring this chapter in our history to a close.

Quick condemnation of the U.S. Government has become habit­ual and I am equally guilty of this attitude. But I am also a believer in giving "unto Caesar what is Caesar's". Justice will have been served when every single check is handed down to every rightful recipient. These funds will not revert to the U.S. Treasury. They will go to friends and relatives who suffered property loss and loved-ones during the hostilities here in 1944.

More L~ERS To the editor·

Furthermore, the late issuance of these funds isn't necessarily the sole problem of the U.S. Government. We were as much a part of the problem as it was the U.S. Government. For instance, in 1972 when the Covenant was under negotiations, one of the recommen­dations conveyed to the Marianas Contingent was the inclusion of the war claims issue as part of the package so that we could see its final resolution. This matter was conveniently blocked from inclu­sion for fear that it may delay the "expeditious" consideration and approval of the Covenant Agreement in the U.S. Congress.

to mention is the public policy of the Trust Territory Govern­ment regarding "outsiders" at that time. The TI government had a strict policy of granting "outsiders" the privilege to do business here especially in ar­eas where local people can do it. This was a policy to protect the local enterpreneurs who are just starting-up at that time. Given the time of implementation, such policy was a good one rather ~ allowing somebody to come in to make profits and send it off-island. Nobody lis­tened and the door was opened. Now only few local businesses are in operation. It is ironic that the one who vehemently op­posed the open door policy is very successful today.

Second, Mr. A. J. Bowie's statement that I am opposed to Duty Free Shoppers is mislead­ing. The truth of the matter is that my company submitted a bid for the rights to these con­cessions. Unfortunately, welost to Duty Free Shoppers' bid of ISM for 15 years. As a good businessman, I had no choice but·to sell my giftshops at two major hotels at a reasonably good price.

Third, Saipan Shipping Company, Inc. is a local com­

, pany of which I am proud to be a stockholder with many other local people. Thirty long years

had passed and yet this company is still carrying its corporate goals of serving the shipping needs of the CNMI and other Micronesian is­lands. It is just unfortunate that Oceania Lines, like many others who tried, went out of business, and I can only guess that this is just a sign that the communities we serve have confidence in Saipan Shipping Company, Inc. The shipping busi­ness is an open one. I invite Mr. A. J. Bowie to try again. It is a clean but competitive business venture.

To mention in passing, two of the members of the Marianas Amuse­mentAssociation (Mr.A. J. Bowie's cohorts) approached us three to four years ago for a lease of the old Wazakura Restaurant at the Joeten Center in Susupe, just across from the Saipan Diamond Hotel at the rate of Five Thousand Dollars (US$5,000.00) per month rental for only 1,000 sq. ft. space oron a 50/50 joint gambling venture, but we re­fused to entertain them.Myconvic­tion on gambling dictated that the proposal is not possible inspite of the enormous economic benefits to be derived.

Finally, I hope Mr. A. J. Bowie will agree that Saipan can still grow economically even without poker machines as Guam can truly attest soon.

Sincerely,

ls/Jose C. Tenorio (Joeten)

Had we included this item and other substantive issues for review and mutual agreement, recipients would have received their money a decade ago. But it seems that our ability to discern substantive and nonsubstantive issues was blinded by other pe­ripheral issues. We also purposely sidetracked inclusion of the 200-mile exclusive economic zone for discussion for fear that it may delay "expeditious" approval of the Covenant Agreement. Now, we are going back to the federal government saying that this or the authority to control our resources within the EEZ must reside with the local government I agree. But can we, once and for all, learn to rid of our attitude of ADVANCING 10 TIIE REAR?

Indeed, the journey towards the final resolution of this matter was a long one. but what really matters INS 'T the late issuance of these funds, but rather its final approval and issuance. The largess is here. They will be given to rightful recipients. Uncle Sam deserves every iota of congratulations from us. These checks will find their way to the rightful owners over the next six months. Again, congratulations to, in the words of Speaker Pete R. Guer­rero, "our mother country."

*** We all have our own geographical perception of what and where

is Washington, D.C. Indeed, it is the seat of the U.S. Government It is also the most powerful and complex area in the entire union.

I say "powerful and complex" in that other than our geographical understanding or knowledge of the place, one's success in getting his/her concerns to the appropriate authority in Washington is heavily reliant upon how well an individual, interest groups or nations forthat matter, MOVE PAPERS at the right time and to the right people.

It is a difficuJt thing to learn, muchless, master. That is why you hear the retainment of professional public relations firms or lobbyists and even top-gun legal firms. But you also pay through the nose for their services. Have you ever heard of a $25,000 legal fee for just one less than five minute call to a top legal fee firm? Believe it or not! We 'II talk about it (Washington) as we go down the stretch. It's as fascinating as it is frustrating. And, my belated ha Thanks 'vin to one and all.

Rates ... believe we are c~ to operate this utility here as a business," said White."There are no free lunches and someone has to pay for it"

Charts on just how much it cost CUC to operate were presented, explanations of the laws requir­ing CUC to recover its operating cost from its revenues were made, and CUC Board members asked the public to try and under­stand the uncomfortable position the utility was in, but when the private citizens started to speak their voices drowned out those comments by CUC with com­mentsabout what they saw wrong with CUC and the rate hike.

An often heard complaint of the public during the meeting was voiced by Cornelio Castro. "Why should the rates go up when the service is so ·bad?" he asked.

Sasamoto attempted to answer that question by saying it will take money for improvements in serv­ices to be made and that money has to come from the consumer and that is why the rate hike is needed.

Then get the needed money from the large commercial ac­counts and not from the little guy, responded Ken Govendo. "You are bootstrapping this rate hike on the average consumer," he said Go after the garment factories the large hotels and put them on line and collect the proper amount owed cue from them, he added.

Others at the meeting also voiced concern that CUC could be better off financial and per­haps not need a rate hike if all customers paid their fair share.

First governor of the Common­wealth Dr. Carlos Camacho cited instances where businesses were not billed according to the power they consumed. Camacho said his business was paying around $250 a month for power while next store another business which used more electrical power was paying between $18 and $19 a month for power. "Make an ef­fort to meter all commercial ac­tivities, the government and high government officials homes, be­fore you ask for a higher rate," said Camacho. He suggested cue was losing millions of dol­lars because of customers not

• • • From page 1 paying fairly for the power they received and those millions could bring CUC closer to full cost recovery without an rate increase.

The rate increase itself some­times during the meeting got lost among the discussion on the serv­ice provided by CUC in the areas of both electrical power and wa­ter.

"I just left my house in San Antonio and it is dark and my ice cream is running on the floor," said Richard Stolp. His concern over poor service was echoed by others like Lupe Borja, John Castro,JacobaSeman,andMaria Pangelinan.

The legal ability of CUC to raise lhe rates under public law was questioned extensively by Greg Sablan. "By law you have to compare your rates with other similar utility services," he said. "By law you must do the com­parison before you set your rates. You just can not ignore the law, if it is a bad law then change it but until you do you just abide by it"

With more public hearings held in Tinian Tuesday, and on Rota Wednesday CUC board members will have heard much from the public, however after Monday's meeting the rate hikes still had basic support from the board members.

"The rate hike is a necessity, and I still support it." said Younis and also supporting it was Pic­caro. While White said some of the testimony heard Monday night may change the way the rates are broken down between commercial and residential as several people supported a lower residential hike and an higher commercial hike in rates. If fi­nally approved by the board the tates would go into effect Jan. 1, 1989.

However, a words of warning were spoken by Sasamoto and CUC Operations and Manage­ment Director Darrel Pierce which indicated that the rate in­crease is not the overall solution to CUC's problems.

Sasamoto said the Lyonnaise Marianas America and Chase Manhattan Bank study on which the formula of the rate hike was based was a year old and might not reflect the rates needed now

Course centers on Family care needs In the words of Rose Launit, a

resident of Fina Sisu and mother of three children, "Ies a program that more local people should know about; I've gained a lot from it I learned about the impor­tance of preparing balanced meals for my family. I really appreciated the opportunity to improve my cooking abilities."

The "program"Launitrefers to is the Home Economics Program offered by the Cooperative Ex­tensionService atNorthem Mari­anas College (NMC). She is a ·recent graduate of the Home Economics Expanded Food and Nutrition Program (EFNEP).

EFNEP provides lessons on meal planning, cooking, food preservation, food safety, health and sanitation, weight control, food purchasing, budgeting, home gardening and other topics important to-today's mother and homemaker. NMC sends an in­structor (Nutrition Aide) to the home, where the lessons are given right in the living room, dining room or kitchen. The les­sons are usually given in small study groups with relatives, neighbors and friends. The pro­gram's goal is to work with fami­lies for an average of six to twelve months, with one lesson each week. There is no charge for the lessons, and upon completion of the program the homemaker is presented with a special certifi­cate. EPNEP is offered on Saipan, Tinian and Rota.

Amelita Alvarez, Chairman of

NMC's Home Economics Pro­gram, says "One of our most important goals is to help develop an awareness of how good and nutritious local foods are, and to encourage people to rely more on locally-grown foods and less on imported foods. EFNEP is one of our primary methods of getting out into the community, but we also offer food and nutrition workshops here at the college." The workshops focus on family­related concerns such as food and nutrition, health, sewing clothes

"Contrary to the appellees position that this ruling merely relied on common law principles· of equitable distribu­tion .• " the appeals panel said," . • • the above language makes it quite clear that the trial court in­tended to apply principles unique to community property law."

Further, the appeals panel said that they knew of no state which has adopted a community prop­erty system by way-of-judicial, rather that legislative, action. They could also find no support for Hefner's decision in the Commonwealth's Probate Code because, "it does not demonstrate

Drift net problem Like video games and ham­

burgers, drift gill-net fishing (drift-netting) is becoming com­monplace throughout the world. Its latest emergence is in the rela­tively unfished waters of the South Pacific by Taiwanese and Japanese drift-net fleets targeting surface schools of albacore. Concerned fishery officials of several South Pacific island COUJltries met in Suva, Fiji, on November 3 and 4, 1988, to dis-cuss ways to discourage the use of drift nets on the high seas of the South Pacific, according to Dr. George W. Boehlert, Director of the Honolulu Laboratory, NOAA Fisheries-Southwest Region.

''This highly effective fishing technology brings with it consid­erable controversy and a host of knotty problems for fishennen, marine scientists and govern­ment fishery managers," said Dr. Jerry A. Wetherall, an albacore expert and Chief of the Honolulu Laboratory's Pelagic Resources Investigation, who attended the meeting. ''One of the main prob-lems is thatdriftnetsentangleand kill other marine life occurring in the same area as the target fish species."

Two trollers from the United States began a fishery in the area in 1986, followed by 7 trollers in 1987. In the 1988 fishing season,

!',

a fleet of 41 U.S. vesseb was i joined by trollers from Omada, , ~ · Fiji and French Polynesia The troll fishery was so successful that several South Pacific island countries consider it a promising avenue for local economic devel­opment

In 1988 drift-net fishing began on a small scale in the same area fished by the trollers. However, during the upcoming 1989 fish­ing season, January through April, the fleet of drift-net boats is expected to grow to as many as 80 vessels, each with a capacity of 2Q9to 300 tons of albacore. Some concern exists that the increased catch of albacore by drift-net vessels, when combined with the catch already taken by longline and trolling fleets, may exceed the maximum sustainable yield of the population.

For hundreds of construction workers and staffers of the Pa­cific Islands Club-Saipan, Tues­day was the big day. After weeks of round the clock work to put the $25 million resort together, the first ten hotel guests got off a mid­aftemoon Continental-Air Mi­cronesia flight

The distinction of being the official "first" guests fell to a couple from Japan's Kanasawa City. Yoshihiko Inoze and Kon­omi Ishikura are both bankers. While he is a PIC-Saipan first visitor, Inoze has been a club guest before. Five years ago he took up wind-surfing at the PIC­Guam and is planning to refine his skills during this visit.

A grand opening for PIC­Saipan is set for January.' The resort will have 220 guest rooms and will feanrre a water park fa­cility which is now completed.

Men's softball league begins a new season

By Frank Palacios 1988 Men's Softball Slow­

Pitch League was officially opened on Sunday, November 20, with a record twenty-four participating teams.

The North Star team with a record-tie seven homeruns de­feated the defending champion Torres Freezers 15-10 in the first game. LeftfielderTony Noritaled the North Star's 19-hits attack going 3-for-4 including two homeruns, 3-RBI's and scoring 3-runs. Eddie Sablan also ripped two homers and Loran Pua, Syl­van Pua, and Rudy Pua with one homer a-piece. Sheldon Fernan­dez went 3-for-3 including two homeruns and Rick Dela Cruz ripped the league first grand slam homer for the Freezers. Ten homeruns in one game is new record. The 1987 DOE North Start team was the first team to hit 7-homeruns in a game against the Air Mike Flyers. Jess W abol, Ben Castro and Tony Satur had two homers apiece and Pete Taitano got one.

The Camacho Roots with Jo­seph Camacho going4-for-4 with four RB I's lead the Roots to a 13-2 six inning shutout over the Rainbow Construction in game No. 2 Joe tripled in two in the first, and singled in two more in the sixth. Sylvan, Tony, Diego and Mike Camacho's each with one homerun. Jack Guerrero homered for the Rainbow.

J.J. Cruz slammed a tie-break­ing two-runs homer in the bottom of the sixth to lead the Pacific Trading toanexcitingS-3 victory over the Glaziers in game 3. The Glaziers scored first in the top of the second on a lead off double by Ray Saka. The Trading bounced right back to tie the score up in their half when J.J. Cruz led off with a single and plated oh Stanly Laniyo's sacrifice. The Glaziers regained the lead in the third when Alek Ngotel:s singled and scored on a fielding error by sec­ond baseman Butch Matsumoto, Pete Tomokane 's two runs double put Trading on top 3-2 in the fifth. The Glaziers tied the game up in the top of the sixth on Clarence Saka's RBI triple.

The Tropical Buds with timely hitting of rightfielder John Hirsch, scored their first season opening game with a close and exciting 10-8 victory over the Beya Clan in the fourth and final game of the day. Hirsch went 4-for-4 withfourrun scored. Hirsch open the first, third, fifth and seventh innings with lead off singles and the Buds went on to score all their runs on those in­nings with two in the first, two in the third, three in the fifth, and three in the seventh that gave them the lead for good. Trailing 7-5 entering the bottom of the sixth, the Beya Clan then erupted for three runs to give them an 8-7 lead, but weren't able to hold on suffering their season opener 10-8. Dave Santos and Tony Cabrera homered for the Beya Clan.

Baseball Game Result The high spirited Toyota

Wheels won their first pennant championship barely edging the powerful Sablan Termites 4-2 after both successfully ended the regular season with an identical 12-2 record on Saturday, Novem­ber 19.

The Termites had several chances but weren't able to capi­talize with runners on scoring position. They went on to take the lead in the bottom of the first when George Camacho singled and plated on a Reno Celis single. But the Wheels countered to tie the score at I-apiece on Bobby Lizama' s single in the top of the fifth. The Termites took their last lead of the game in the sixth on Reno Celis RBI double account­ing for both Termites runs. The Wheels then scored on each of the last three innings for their first pennant championship.

Winning pitcher Anthony Be­navente gave up ten hits, struck out seven and walking no one. Losing pitcher Dominic Chong issued eleven hits, struck out eight, and walked four (three to Tom Barcinas).

The league championship double elimination tournament between the Toyota Wheels, Sablan Terites, YCO D-9ers and Mazda Blue Sharks will start on Saturday, November26.

Tomokane. voices a i concern on ! foodstuffs

PSS - Board of Education member Anicia Tomokane of Saipan said in the Board meeting held at the Pacific Gardenia Hotel Monday (Nov. 21) that some parents have raised concerns to her about food services at the schools.

She said that the concerns in­cluded late serving of breakfasts and lunches at schools, students disliking the food being served, and some food servers refusing to serve students.

According to Tomokane, there was a time a student arrived at a cafeteria at 7:10 am. and was refused to be served by a food server because the student was "late" although there was still left-over food at that time.

Commissioner of Education Henry L Sablan, who attended the Board meeting, said taht the food servers have been strongly re­minded to serve all the food to the students. The parents should take concerns to the school principals first, he said, adding that if the problems continue, then the par­ents should approach the Board members.

"There was one food server tenninated from work because of this kind of problem, not serving the students when there was still left-over food," Sablan said. He noted that the only way to curtail food problems at the schools is for the Legislature to grant the PSS at least $300,000 that the school system has been request­ing for the past three years to supplement the food services.

The Commissioner said that it's impossible to please all the students at one time. "This Wed­nesday, for example, we will serve turkey, but I know not all the students will eat their turkey. Some students like hot dogs one clay, and dislike them on other clays."

Board Chainnan Luis Limes advised the Commissioner to renew the dialogue with the Leg­islature in getting the$300,000 to supplement the food services. Limes said food services should placemoreemphasison the nutri­tional aspects of the food being served at the schools.

PSS Food Services Program officials said that a total of 564,748 breakfasts and 927,075 lunches were served to the school childre in Saipan, Tinian, and Rota during the last school year alone.

Taisacan named head of Credit Union here

Martin M. Taisacan

The Saipan Credit Union now has a pennanent Manager, with the appointment of Martin M. Taisacan to the position by the Board of Directors on November 7, 1988, according to a recent announcement by credit union president, David Q. Maratita.

Mr. Taisacan, who has been

Central kitchen is PSS agenda item this week

PSS -The land being occupied by the Public School System's Food Services Program at fonner Dr. TorresHospitalareainSaipan was a point of discussion at the Board of Education meeting held Monday (Nov. 21) at the Pacific Gardenia Hotel in Chalan Kanoa

Rota Board member, Jesus Taisague, who works as a North­ern Marianas College official in Rota, said that the College wants the former Dr. Torres Hospital area deeded to the College as a requirement for continuing ac­creditation. The College has been accredited· by the Western of Schools and Colleges rw ASC) since 1985.

Failure to transfer the land to the College would hamper that school's accreditation, Taisague said. And such transfer would be facilitated in a memorandum of understanding between the Col­lege and the PSS, he said.

Education Commissioner Henry L Sablan, who attended the Monday's meeting, said that Governor Pedro P. Tenorio on April 26, this year, vetoed a bill asking to "grant a freehold inter­est to the College the land and buildings previously occupied by Dr. Torres Hospital."

The Governor said in his veto message to the Legislative Lead­ers that the bill was no longer required since the Marianas Pub­lic Land Corporation had assured him that it would begin the proc­ess of deeding the said piece of land to the College through "administrative procedures."

Inhisvetomessage,theGover­nor added, "In other words, MPLC has agreed to transfer a freehold interest of certain por­tions of the land fonnerly occu­pied by Dr. Torres Hospital to the College. The transfer will not include property presently being utiliz.ed by the Public School System for the Food Services Program, as any disruption of services would adversely impact on our students. Once agreement is reached to relocate to a suitable location, the property may then be deeded to the College."

Education Commissioner Sa­blan told the Board members Monday that transferring the land to the College at this time would jeopardire the school children because a suitable location and facilities have not been identified or construeted to accommodate the FOOd Services Program.

After a considerable discus­sion on the land issue, the Board

agreed to rescind an earlier letter the Commissioner sent to the College stating that a memoran­dum of understanding is not war­ranted at this time since MPLC will not include the Food Serv­ices facility as part of the deed, Board officials said.

The Board further agreed in the Monday's meeting to inform the MPLC that they support transfer of the Food Services facility land to the College with the under­standing that a memorandum of understanding will be executed.

Court will think about Marcos' request to return

..~ MANILA, Philippines (AP)-- Fonner President Ferdinand Marcos ,i who claims he is too weak to travel from Hawaii to New York to fac~ 1;.:t

~~~~t:~~:;:.harges, has asked a Philippine court to allow him to return ~,f_;~.)_;,.i.; ~~os filed a petition Monday asking a Manila court to reconsider

a dec1s1on last month that banned the exiled leader from returning to his . ~ .. •• country to answer testimony against him. W

The court ruled the issue was a "political matter" that could be «· resolved only by President Corazon Aquino, who refused to allow t"; Marcos to return for security reasons. Mrs. Aquino came to power after Marcos was ou~ted ~n a civilian-mili~ uprising in February 1986.

Marcos and his wife, Imelda, were indicted in New York last month on charges they diverted $103 million of Philippine govrnment funds to purchase New York real estate.

Mrs. Marcos was arraigned on Oct. 31 before a New York federal ~ourt~dpleadedn_otguilty.Herhusband'sarraignmentwaspostponed mdefimtely after his lawyers claimed he was too frail to make the 10-hour flight from his exile in Hawaii to New York. D~~rshavesai~Marcos, 71,hascalciumdepositsinhiskneejoints,

~aking ll hard for hun to walk and forcing him to use a wheelchair. His aides also have said Marcos suffered from chest pains, severe head­aches and an eye ailment

Officials at the Sandiganbayan court in Manila said the latest Marcos petition was filed on his behalf by his sister, Fortuna Marcos-Barba.

In the petition, Marcos asked the court to block the scheduled Dec 11 d~position ~y.fonner ~ublic Works and Highways Minister Baltaz~ Aqumo unless it 1s done m Marcos' presence. The fonner ministeris not related to Mrs. Aquino. ~ove_mment lawyers say fonner minister Aquino has agreed to

testi~y m the De. 11 proceedings about alleged kickbacks Marcos received from Japanese companies during his 20-year tenn in office.

Marcos said that unless he is allowed to return to Manila for the deposition, the court and the Philippine government "would be guilty of trial by publicity."

Government la."".'ye:s say ~h~yplan to use Aquino's testimony against '."farcos when Ph1hppme cnmmal charges are filed against him and he 1s ~~ent~ally a_llowed to return to face them. The lawyers saythefonner mm1ster s testimony has to be taken soon because he is iU and may die before Marcos is brought to trial. '

Hopwood school officials said that the Commissioner received the prestigious award, the first of its kind ever awarded by the Student Council ·to a person, because of his efforts in achieving quality education at the school. ·

The officials cited the Commissioner's effort in erecting school facilities such as the new shower building and the school fencing. They said Sablan was instrumental in placing several Hopwood facilities under the first group of projects to be built within one year. These faciliti~ included eight classrooms, a physical education building, and a cafeteria.

.. Our students also recognize the Commissioner for his support of the studentactivitiesandforhis quest to achieve quality instruction in the classrooms," the school officials said.

The Commissioner extended his deep gratitude to the school offi­cials and staff and especially to the Student Council members for their trust in conferring upon him the wooden replica of the Latte-stone, an important element in the CNMI cultural heritage.

Members of th~ Student Council are Carlene Reyes, President; Coreen Castro, Vice President; Annabelle Buniag, Secretary; Marissa Pinaula, Treasurer; Pamela Kileleman, Public Relations Officer; and Roland Pua, SergeantatAnns. Their Chief Advisor is Mrs. Escolastica T.Iguel.

MamnTi1t t8f ansport is hard to find

MANILA, Philippines (AP) -- A transport strike stranded thou­sands of people and forced schools in Manila and Cebu to close Monday,whenPresidentCorawnAquinomarkedherfirstl,OOOdays in office by promising economic revival.

The military Capital Command said service on about 80 percent of the445 passenger jeep routes in Manila was disrupted by as trike called by drivers demanding lower prices for spare parts. ·

It also affected about half the jeep routes in Cebu, the country's second-largest metropolitan area 350 miles southeast of Manila. Of­ficials said drivers in Cebu walked out when they heard of the Manila strike.

Mrs. Aquino said she had been trying to get prices reduced and would with strikers and spare parts dealers Tuesday in search of a compromise.

No serious violencewas reported in Manila but police arrested 15 drivers. Among them was Medardo Roda, leader of the militant jeep driver's association PISTON, which led the walkout.

The union demanded price reductions after a presidential decree last week that dropped the minimum fare to about 3 cents for a 2.5-mile ride. The old rate was about 4. cents, but the drivers actually charge about 5 cents.

Twenty-six military trucks and buses picked up stranded commut­ers during Manila's evening rush hour Monday. The govemment­owned Light Rail Transit system, not affected by the strike, reported a 66 percent increase in riders and extended its operating hours.

Police said the 15 strikers were arrested in various parts of metro­politan Manila for allegedly forcing some drivers to join the protest.

Roda was arrested outside the main post office after leaving a news conference. Police said he may face charges of inciting to sedition for saying in a broadcast interview he would" fight the government to the !st"

A statement by the May First Movement, a labor confederation to which PISTON belongs, accused the government of "repressive measures in responding to the legitimate struggles and legitimate demands of our people."

Mrs. Aquino told reporters she had asked spare parts dealers to cut prices and was "really disappointed" that drivers went ahead with the strike.

Monday was her l ,OOOth day in the presidency she assumed Feb. 25, 1986, as the result of a civilian-military uprising that forced President Ferdinand E. Marcos to flee to Hawaii.

Also on Monday, military spokesmen said the army had released 17 human rights activists, including a Dutch woman social worker, after 15 hours of detention in Piat, 220 miles north of Manila. The activists had spent five days investigating rights violations in the area and were freed without charges, said Capt Eufracio Villegas, army commander in Cagayan province.

Virginian will take over as new asst. U.S. Attorney

K. William O'Connor By David T. Hughes managing editor U.S.AttomeyK. WilliamO'Connorhas

'gotten back' to the Commonwealth re­garding the selection of a new assistant for the Commonwealth. He announced Fri­day that a Virginian, Richard W. Pierce, will assume the post sometime in Decem­ber.

The announcement was made on the heels of a story appearing in the Variety outlining the fact that O'Connor would not talk about a replacement during a visit to Guam by a local reporter. He told a secre­tary to teJI the reporter that he didn't have time to talk about the appointment, but that he "would let you know soon."

Pierce wiJI do like fonner assistant U.S. Attorney George Proctor did when hear­rived in the Pacific in July, 1987. Accord­ing to an interview published in the Pacific Daily News Saturday written by Wes Goodman, the new attorney will first come­to Guam for briefings just before Christ­mas, and then come to Saipan later.

The PDN article said this further delay in bringing a new federal prosecutor to the CNMijustkames their jobs harder, plus, Pierce will be coming into office and have to tie up numerous 'loose ends' of previ­ous cases. hey want him on-island before

the Christmas and New-Year holiday hia­tus taken by government here.

Pierce will be coming to Saipan with an extensive courtroom background in crimi­nal and white-collar crimes in the U.S .. He is a 10-year Justice Department veteran, but unlike Proctor, was never a full U.S. Attorney, only an assistant in Roanoke, Va. He is a cum Laude graduate of Mercer UniversityLawSchoolandhasalsotaught school in Australia and is widely-traveled in the Far east and South America.

"Aussies' have unique methods

PSS officials learn of new ways to teach kids

PSS -At the invitation of Aus­tralia's Ministry of Education, CNMI Board of Education Chair­man Luis M. Limes, Commis­sioner of Education Henry I. Sablan and BOE Technical Assis­tant Ms .. Elizabeth D. Rechebei, attended the 11th International Innovative .t;:xchange Seminar held in three areas of Australia Oct 17-21, BOE officials said.

Distance Education was one of the main topics discussed at this

·seminar. The other topics in­cluded the issue of Social Justice Imperatives in the Victorian Educational System, Innovative Curriculum Delivery Strategies for Multicultural Education Set­tingsandDistanceEducation, the Federal School System, and In­novative Traveling Science· and Math Education. The three Saipan delegates visited the schools in Melbourne. CanhP.rrn and Benalla. Aside from visita­tion of schools and education de­partments in these three areas, the group had an opponunity to watch the Parliament in action at Canberra.

It was decided that one of out­comes of this seminar is an inter­national exchange program. The

. 9pportunity to meet face to face with officials from major associa­tions such as the American Asso-

Volunteers ... in our

spare time we save lives!

IN\'EST?.lE'NT GUIDE p TOT>E CO&IOHWEAl.TH <:I T>E

ciation of School Administrators, Education Research Service and Teachers Federation and the vari­ous Education directors from the United States and Canada pro­vided the CNMI with possibili­ties for future exchange of staff or teachers.

The seminar has potential for the CNMI in the area of distance education which will allow teach­ers and students from isolated areas toreceiveinstructions using several mediums of information transfer such as the two-way ra­dio, computers, telefax., audio/ video productions, etc.

Alternative education as prac­ticed in Australia provides for education of students who have droppedoutofschoolandarepo­tential social risk problems which could be c~le_g through a unique educational program.

Decision-making in the proc­ess of managing Australia's edu­cation involves the community to a large extent thereby making education a community effort and it is patterned after the man­agement of a corporation where the program managers or admin­istrators are addressed as chief general managers, assistant gen­eral manager for administration, etc. All these come with a signifi­cantly large budget for educa­tion, the BOE officials said.

PSS Boys' soccer offers excitement for all Boys Division San Vicente 5 • Tanapag 3 It was truly an exciting extra-

tmitorial match. The Canary jwnpedaheadof the Tatagaearly into the first half of the game on Nonnan Williams' goal. The Canary's coach, Mr. Pete Babauta, set up his tacticle at­tacked to assured a continual lead of the game moved George David from the half-back posi­tion to the outside forward. Aggressively, George David superbly exhibited the quickness of the Canary's wings when he effectively eluded all the Tataga's fullbacks to score the second Canary goal from the left comt2'ofthegoal. Thetwoquick goals japped by the Canary was too much from the fighting Tataga. A combined team work of Frederick Jano and George Magofna allowed the Tataga to score its first goal. Jano dribbled the ball on the left comer of the field and then pass it all the way to the right Magofna was wait­ing for the pass and harshly kissed the ball pass the Canary's goalie, Joe Terlaje.

With the score tied at two poinrs, Norman Williams of the Canary forced another goal at 30

feet from the goal line. A costly foul by the Canary's center half­back, John Camacho, gave the Tatagaadirectfreekickfromhalf way of the midfield. Herman Lieto took the direct free kick to the goal, but the Canary's goalie, Joe Terlaje, fumbled and Jessie Pua of the Tataga was there to score another goal to even the score, -3-3.

In the se.cond half of the-game both teams attempted over 10 goals but none was suecessful. The remaining time of the game went lopsided. The Canary were in total control. Of course, the Marine Species were running out of air on land and the Canary took advantage of that The center forward and the left inside for­ward, Ben Aldan and Norman Williams, each scored a goal re­specitvely to put the Canary in command. The Tataga never re­taliate from then on and the game ended with the score 5-3.

Girls Division Garapan 5 -Koblerville 0 The Mallards paralyzed the

Umang's defense during their soccer match. In the first half of play, the Mallards scored 3 goals and 2 more in the second half of the game.

The Mallard girls were in total control of the game from the start of the end. Led by the top soccer, Arlene Likisap, with 3 scored goals indicated a possible shot­out game. True as it appeared, Likisap's 3 scored points in the first half was reinforced by the sttong defense of the fullbacks. Therese Mendoza and Gloria Romolor. The aggressive attack of the Umangs forwards could not penetrate the Mallards full­backs.

In the second half of the game the Umang tightly clinched their pincher and came aggressively trying to score points but could only find the ready defense of the Mallards. All attempts were un­successful. Tehir goalie, Est.ella Igisomar, was caught by more surprise from the Mallards for­wards. Combined for two more Mallard goals, one apiece, Joann Alfonso and Jennifer SaiJnon made the score 5 - 0. The game ended with no further Umang's goal attempt

Tasaday Tribe entitled to legal use of land, says Aquino

MANILA, Philippines (AP) -President Corazon Aquino said Wednesday the Tasaday are a le­gitimate "Stone Age" tribe and that those seeking to discredit them as impostors are simply out to rob the tribesmen of their an­cestral lands.

It was the first time Mrs. Aquino commented publicly on the Tasaday, who have become involved in international contro­versy since the government "discovered" them in I 971 in the jungles of Mindanao island.

Then-President Ferdinand Marcos declared the Tasaday, who numbered in the dozens, an indigenous tribe and set aside timber-rich lands for them in Mindanao.

But sc>me Philippine scholars have branded the Tasaday a hoax perpetrated by Marcos to gain international publicity for the Philippines.

Defenders of the Tasaday say the skeptics simply want access torich timber lands or to discredit Marcos.

But Mrs. Aquino told an inter­national conference of tribal minorities that the Tasaday con­troversy underscores the need to protect primitive cultures from exploitation.

"For apparently materialistic motives, and to open the groups' 19 ,000 hectares ( 4 7 ,000 acres) of rich agricultural and timber an­cestral lands for exploitation, some scholars with media sup­port denounced the existence of the tribe as a hoax," the president said.

She added that the Tasaday controversy "was a concrete il­lustration of how an ethnic tribe's identity was all but lost in the cross-currents of media hype and scholarly posturing."

Scholars who defend the Tasaday say they are descendants of Manubo-speaking tribesmen who fled their coastal village more than 700 years ago to escape pirates.

They fled into isolated jungle caves and, over the centuries, re­vened back to a Stone Age cul­ture, supporters say. Others be­lieve the Tasaday remained in isolation becuse they feared dis­eases such as smallpox, which were rampant in coastal areas.

On Nov. 3, a congressional committee said a one-year study substantiated the Tasaday's claim.

The 21-page report said there was no credible evidence to sub­stantiate claims by several pro­fessors at the University of the Philip'pines that the Tasaday were a hoax.

Experts predicting Asian 'mega-cities'

BANGKOK, Thailand (AP)--Asia's urban population is ex­pected to increase dramatically and the continent will have 14 cities with populations of more than 10 million by the year 2000, a U.N. report said Wednesday.

Between 1985 and 2000, the urban population of Asia will increase more than 300 percent over the rural population, according to a report by the U .N. Economic and Social Commis­sion for Asia and the Pacific .

Among mega-cities will be Osaka-Kobe, Beijing, Jakarta, Tehran, New Delhi, Manila-Quezon City, and Bangkok, the statement said. Those will be in addition to Tokyo-Yokohama, Shanghai, Calcutta, Seoul and greater Bombay, which already have populations exceeding 10 million.

The report said Tokyo-Yokohama is expected to be the most populous Asian city by 2000 with 20.2 million residents,followed by Calcutta with 16.5 million and Bombay with 16 million.

City dwellers are better off, it said. "While urban infrastruc­ture and services are severely burdened ... on average urban residents have high household income, better access to electric­ity, water and waste disposal, and have better health conditions, medical facilities and schools than do rural residents," it said.

No 'holiday mood' at airlines: Fares skyrocket in time for Xmas rush

NEW YORK (AP)-- The chances of finding a bargain airlines ticket are a lot smaller today than they were a day earlier.

The nation's biggest airlines said Tuesday they are going through with previously disclosed plans to boost most of their lowest discount air fares and eliminate the cheap fares that can be booked a few days before a flight.

The changes, announced last week, would revamp the popular advance-purchase "MaxSaver" fares used by most vacation travelers. They would also drop the so-called' 'junk fares" available four to seven days before a flight, which are used mainly by business travelers.

The changes went into effect at midnight Tuesday. Carriers adopting the changes include United Airlines, American

Airlines, Northwest Airlines, Trans World Airlines andDeltaAir Lines. Unde the MaxSaver changes, fares for longer flights generally will

be raised and those for shorter hauls will mostly be reduced. That means roughly two-thirds of the fares will go up, and the remainder will fall.

The new formula based on flight mileage replaces the airlines' past practice of setting fares according to competition on individual routes.

The changes in Malit Saver fares generally range from a$20reduction to a $40 increase on a round-trip ticket.

"We have been heavily inundated with phone calls," said David Perelman, president of DMS Travel Inc. in midtown Manhattan.

He noted that the demise of the last-minute junk fares means, for example, that a passenger flying from Newark, N.J., to Kansa5 City, Mo., would pay $296 round trip if he booked Tuesday on a three-day advancebasis.ButasofWednesday,thecheapestround-tripfareforthe same trip will be $7 57, Perelman said.

There are some exceptions to the changes. American Airlines, for example, said it won't go long with them in those cities where it competes with Midway Airlines, a smaller carrier thatdidn'tmatch the changes.

Similarly, Texas Air Corp.subsidiary Eastern Airlinesdoesn'tplan to make the changes in the highly competitive market linking the North­east and Florida. Delta will put off making the revisions in that market as long as Eastern does, said Delta spokesman Jim Lundy in Atlanta.

But a substantial majority of discount fares will be adjusted. The changes were initiated by Continental Airlines and quickly

matched by the other big carriers, which were emboldened by strong recent growth in passenger traffic. .

Continental, another Texas Air subsidiary, customarily has been a pacesetter in cutting fares. But the stronger traffic has spurred it to switch directions.

The airline used to slash fares to attract more passengers, and its moves quickly were mimicked by the other big carriers in an effort to remain competitive. Now, Continental's improving traffic has made t a leader in fare hikes rather than cuts, at least for the moment.

U.S. and Australia renew base pacts

CANBERRA, Australia (AP) -- Australia and the United States have extended their agreement on two U.S. military bases for another 10 years, Prime Minister Bob Hawke told Parliament Tuesday.

In Washington, a State Department official confinned Hawke's statement and said the United States was pleased the agreement was extended.

The Pine Gap and Nurrunga space satellite facilities had until now operated under agreements that could be tenninated at one year's notice by either side, Hawke said.

"Wedonotregard this as satisfactory, both because of the continu­ing importance of (the bases) effective operation to global peace and because of the specific benefits to Ahstralia of long-term access to . their capabilities," the prime minister said.

"We have further agreed that three year' notice shall be required to tenninate the agreement," he said.

He said the United States has also agreed to allow more Australian involvement in the management of the bases.

Hawke said that until the early 198™, only about 10 percent of the staff at the bases were Australian. He said that under the new agreement, the Australian staff will incrb to about 30 percent of the employees.

Another U.S.-run base at North-West Cape, whose military func­tion is less sensitive than that of Pine Gap and N urrunga, is not subject to the new agreement

Australian officials said the number of U.S. military personnel in Australia is classified infonnation.

Pilgrims weren't first feasters STA TECOLLEGE,Pa. (AP)_

Pilgrims in Plymouth Colony weren't the first to celebrate Thanksgiving, despite the popu­lar tale of colonists and Indians sitting down together in 1621, a Penn State University professor said.

Settlers in Jamestown held the first Thanksgiving 11 years ear­lier, according to John B. Frantz, an associate professor of history.

'The settlers, faced with what Capt John Smith called 'the starving times' gave an exuberant welcome to Gov. De la Warr when he arrived with a shipload

of provisions," Frantz said. Frantz acknowledges that 50

surviving Pilgrims and 90 Indi­ans held a three-day feast of veni­son and wild turkey in October 1621.

The governor of Connecticut proclaimed a day of thanksgiving no later than 1639, and the Dutch colony of New Netherland, which later became New York, proclaimedadayofthanksgiving in 1644, Frantz said.

A female editor of the nation's widely read women's magazine is the "father" of the 135-year-old Thanksgiving holiday, Franz

said. Josepha Buell Hale, of Phila­

delphia, for 20 years wrote edito­rials for 150,000-circulation Godey's Lady's Book urging Thanksgiving be made a national holiday, he said.

She also carried on a letter­writing campaign, corresponding with governors and U.S. presi­dents, Frantz said.

Her efforts, Frantz said, has­tened a process already in motion and struck a chord with President Lincoln, according to Frantz.

Florida residents flee hurricane wind TAMPA, Fla. (AP)--Tropical

Stonn Keith blustered ashore Wednesday, spawning torna­does, flooding streets, knocking down power lines and forcing more than 600 people to evacu­ate, including residents of a nurs­ing home.

A Pacific storm, meanwhile, pummeled Oregon with 75 mph winds and unleashed nearly 4 inches of rain Tuesday.

Florida residents and tourists generally dismissed Keith's 65 mph gusts and heavy rains as a nuisance, not a danger.

"We're treating it like a bad thunderstorm," said George Miller,managerof theBest West­ern Sea Wake Inn in Clearwater Beach.

Forecasters at the National Hunicane Center in Coral Gables said Keith's center made landfall shortly after 1 a.m. near Sarasota, about 50 miles south of Tampa. ' Space Shuttle Atlantis re­

mained on the launch pad await­ing an early Decembr liftoff. Workers sealed exposed areas near the engine to prevent rain damage and retracted the eleva­tor access arm to protect shuttle tiles if the craft begins to shake, said George Diller, a Kennedy Space Center spokesman. The shuttle can easily withstand the stonn 's wind and rain, he said.

At 9 am., the storm was cen­tered near Cape Canaveral, mov-

. ing east-nonheast at 15-20 mph. While gusts of 65 mph continued over marine areas, most of the stonn 's winds over the mainland had dropped below 40 mph. The stonn was expected to move off­shore on the Atlantic Coast about midday.

The storm dumped 5 inches of rain or more in Tampa, Orlando

and Daytona Beach and brough1 tides 4 to 6 feet above nonnal.

"It appears at the moment tha1 Sarasota may have experience( the most substantial damange,' said Dick Morgan, spokesmar for the state Division of Erner· gency Management. "There appears to be considerable roac damage."

A tropical stonn warning wru issued for the 250 miles from Cape Sable at the state's south· western tip, nonh to Cedar Ke} on the Gulf Coast Forecasten extended the warning late Tues­day to the Atlantic Coast frorr. Jupiter Inlet, nonh of Palm Beach, to Savannah, Ga.

However, forecasters said ~ cold front from the nonh wru mingling with Keith in theGulfol Mexico and was expected to sa~ its strength. Tropical storm~ tluive on warm, moistann but the front was feeding cool, dry ah into Keith, said hurricane special­ist Bob Case.

Officials early today reported 250 residents of low-lying areru in the St. Petersburg area were ir. shelters; about 140 were in eigh1 shelters in the Tampa Bay ar~ and 147 were in four shelters ir Clearwater, said Jeanne Ann Crutchfield, a spokeswoman f01 the American Red Cross in St Petersburg.

Fewer than a dozen were at a shelter in Venice. in Saraso~ County and the 96 residents oj Shore Acres Nursing Home in St Petersburg Beach were taken tc two other nursing homes because of a danger of flooding.

Allthreecausewayconnecting St. Petersburg and Tampa were closed late Tuesday because ol high winds.

Reagan plans a veto of ethics legislation

SANTA BARBARA, Calif. (AP) -- President Reagan is vetoin: compromise legislation that, for the first time, would have imposec restrictions on lobbying by fonner members of Congress and thei senior staff members, the White House announced Wednesday.

Chief presidential spokesman Marlin Fitzwater, announcing Re agan's decision to allow a Friday midnight signing deadline to pas without action, said the administration concluded provisions in the bil affecting executive branch emp.loyees would have discouraged peopl1 from working for the government.

"These laws should be fair, impartial, easily understood and shouli not erect barriers to public service," he said. Fitzwater called the bil "ovr-reaching" and said it was "sloppily put together."

Reagan's pocket veto came nearly a month after the president exer cised his same constitutional prerogative to kill a bill aimed at protect ing so-called "whistleblowers" -- federal employees who report wrong doing and mismanagement in their agencies.

In the earlier case, Reagan said the bill, while well-intentioned, woul• have had the effect of making it virtually impossible for the heads o f~ departments and agencies to discipline employees.

In advance of Reagan's announcement, President-elect George Busl had told reporters in Washington Wednesday that if the presidentkillet the bill, he would push for some similar kind oflegislation early in hi administration.

"I am going lo have an ethics bill," Bush said before depaning for: Thanksgiving vacation at his retreat in Kennebunkport, Maine. "Ani it'll be a strong one. It'll be a fair one."

Florida residents flee hurricane wind TAMPA, Fla. (AP) -·Tropical

Stonn Keith blustered ashore Wednesday, spawning torna­does, flooding streets, knocking down power lines and forcing more than 600 people to evacu­ate, including residents of a nurs­ing home.

A Pacific stonn, meanwhile, pummeled Oregon with 75 mph winds and unleashed nearly 4 inches of rain Tuesday.

Florida residents and tourists generally dismissed Keith's 65 mph gusts and heavy rains as a nuisance, not a danger.

"We're treating it like a bad thunderstorm," said George Miller,manageroftheBestWest­em Sea Wake Inn in Clearwater Beach.

Forecasters at the National Hurricane Center in Coral Gables said Keith's center made landfall shortly after 1 a.m. near Sarasota, about50 miles south of Tampa. ' Space Shuttle Atlantis re·

mained on the launch pad await­ing an early Decembr liftoff. Workers sealed exposed areas near the engine to prevent rain damage and retracted the eleva­tor access arm to protect shuttle tiles if the craft begins to shake, said George Diller, a Kennedy Space Cenler spokesman. The shuttle can easily withstand the stonn's wind and rain, he said.

At 9 am., the storm was cen­tered near Cape Canaveral, mov­ing east-northeast at 15-20 mph. While gusts of 65 mph continued over marine areas, most of the stonn's winds over the mainland had dropped below 40 mph. The stonn was expected to move off­shore on the Atlantic Coastabout midday.

The stonn dumped 5 inches of rain or more in Tampa, Orlando

and Daytona Beach and brough1 tides 4 to 6 feet above nonnal.

"It ~ppears at the moment tha1 Sarasota may have experience<' the most substantial damange,' said Dick Morgan, spokesmar for the state Division of Erner· gency Management. "There appears to be considerable roac damage."

A tropical stonn warning wru issued for the 250 miles from Cape Sable at the state's south· western tip, north to Cedar Ke} on the Gulf Coast Forecaste~ extended the warning late Tues· day to the Atlantic Coast frorr. Jupiter Inlet, north of Palm Beach, to Savannah, Ga.

However, forecasters said ~ cold front l'rom the north wru mingling with Keith in the Gulf ol Mexico and was expected to sa~ its strength. Tropical storm~

thrive on warm, moist arm but the front was feeding cool, dry ail intoKeith,saidhurricanespecial­ist Bob Case.

Officials early today reported 250 residents of low-lying areru: in the St. Petersburg area were ir shelters; about 140 were in eigh1 shelters in the Tampa Bay ar~ and 147 were in four shelters ir Clearwater, said Jeanne Ann Crutchfield, a spokeswoman fo1 the American Red Cross in St Petersburg.

Fewer than a dozen were at a shelter in Venice in Sarasot: County and the 96 residents ol Shore Acres Nursing Home in St Petersburg Beach were taken tc two other nursing homes becauS( of a danger of flooding.

All three causeway connecting St. Petersburg and Tampa were closed late Tuesday because ol high winds.

Reagan plans a veto of ethics legislation

SANTA BARBARA, Calif. (AP) -· President Reagan is vetoin; compromise legislation that, for the first time, would have impo~ restrictions on lobbying by fonner members of Congress and thei senior staff members, the White House announced Wednesday.

Chief presidential spokesman Marlin Fitzwater, announcing Re agan's decision to allow a Friday midnight signing deadline to pas without action, said the administration concluded provisions in the bil affecting executive branch empJoyees would have discouraged peopl1 from working for the government.

"These laws should be fair, impartial, easily understood and shoul1 not erect barriers to public service," he said. Fitzwater called the bil "ovr-reaching" and said it was "sloppily put together."

Reagan's pocket veto came nearly a month after the president ex er cised his same constitutional prerogative to kill a bill aimed at protect ing so-called" whistleblowers" -- federal employees who report wrong doing and mismanagement in their agencies.

In theearliercase,Reagan said the bill, while well-intentioned, woul• have had the effect of making it virtually impossible for the heads o f~ departments and agencies to discipline employees.

In advance of Reagan's announcement, President-elect George Busl had told reporters in Washington Wednesday that if the president kill~ the bill, he would push for some similar kind of legislation early in hi administration.

"I am going to have an ethics bill," Bush said before departing for: Thanksgiving vacation at his retreat in Kennebunkport, Maine. "Am it'll be a strong one. It'll be a fair one."

EOC kept very busy recently disposing of explosives

The Emergency Operations Center conducted controlled explosions of World War Il live ordnance at several locations around Saipan recently in a joint operation with staff from the US Navy's Explosive Ordnance Dis­posal unit from Guam. Lt. Mi­chael P. Tiilotson and two of his staff from the Navy's EOD unit assisted James Reyes, the CNMI Disaster Officer and his staff from the CNMI Emergency Op­erations Center in the detonation of recently-discovered bombs at four sites around Saipan, thre.e of which were underwater .

According to Reyes, super­vised blasting of the ammunition was essential to avoid the loss of life and property that could have been caused by accidental deto­nation if the ordnance had not been handled properly. Removal of the ordnance to the disposal siteatMarpi wasnotanoptionfor these four sites as they were con­sidered too dangerous to move.

Controlled explosions oc-

curred in the Kagman area and at three underwater sites near Man­agaha and the Tanapag Reef. All blasts were executed without incident or serious damage to the Kagman property or underwater site.

Numerous radio and television broadcasts notified the public of the supervised detonations to caution them to stay away from the areas targeted for the opera­tion. In addition,just"prior to each of the underwater explosions, the Department of Public Safety's Police Harbor Patrol, led by Lt Joe Sablan, notified all passen­gers aboard seagoing vessels to evacuate the harbor area. None­theless, at around noon on Sun­day, just after the 10-minute fuse has been lit on a 500-pound pro­jectile near Buoy #7, a previously unseen, small craft approached the site. Police Harbor Patrol staff quitkly alerted the pilot of the boat to detour, just seconds be­fore the explosion.

Managaha Island was ordered

closed by the CNMI Disaster Office because of the scheduled controlled explosions. The op­eration took place in less time than predicted, however, and the island was re-opened at 1 p.m. on Sunday, well ahead of schedule.

A final blast will occur on Monday,November21,ataround noon-at the bomb disposal site in Marpi. The Marpi site serves as the stockpile for explosive ord­nance routinely discovered on Saipan and removed by CNMI Emergency Operations Center staff. The public is cautioned to stay away from the area so lhe operation can be performed safely and without delay.

CNMI Disaster Officer James Reyes reminds the public that the discovery of explosives should be reported to the Emergency Operations Center on Capitol Hill, where operators are on duty 24 hours per day. Call 322-9529 to report any items that appear to be made of explosive or other dangerous materials.

MVB holds tribute to travel industry The Marianas Visitors Bureau

held its 5th Annual Marianas Dinana on Guam on November 18, paying tribute to the Guam travel industry for their support in promoting the Commonwealth. This year's theme of the Dinana featured Rota.

"Our U.S. arrivals, of which a majority are from Guam, com­prised the second largest portion of our total arrivals. In Fiscal Year

1988, over 41,000 U.S. citizens visited the CNMI, a healthy 22% increase over the same period last year", said MVB Deputy Manag­ing Director Bennet Seman.

"We look forward to working closely with you in promoting travel to our islands," she added.

Rota Mayor Prudencio Man­glona, guest speaker for the event, commented; "Our con­tinuing economic growth and

future prosperity depends on the continued development and ex­pansion of tourism and its related industries. We solicit your con­tinued support to actively pro­mote and encourage travel to our beautiful island of Rota."

Over 50 travel trade personnel including travel agents, military tour coordinators, airline person­nel, and the Guam media were on hand at the function.

Chamber asks poker machine ban By Tom Anderson Staff Reporter Saipan Chamber of Com­

merce's .letter to Governor Pedro P. Tenorio asking the governor to issue an executive order to ban poker machines has been an­swered by the governor who said he does not have the authority to issue such. an order.

"Simply stated I have no au­thority to repeal existing Jaws such as those authorizing and regulating poker machines. Any contra interpretation would vio­late principles basic to a democ­racy such as the separation of powers," said Tenorio. ·

The Chamber's request came after an appeal by Jose T. Tenorio

to Chamber members to help him fight what he saw as the determi­nant effect poker machines were having on Saipan. "I hate to see ourpeoplespendmoney fornoth­ing.Andnoattemptis being made by our legislators to do anything towards banning these poker machines, " J. Tenorio said. Re­cently the legislation on poker

machines was recalled from the Senate by the House. House Speaker Pedro Gamero has said he felt the issue should be decided by the people and not through legislative action. Guerrero also expressed concern over how the revenue collected by the govern­ment for the poker machines would be replaced if poker ma­chines were banned.

That concern is shared by a newly formed organization of retirees in ·the Commonwealth. Meeting for the first time Tues­day night at the China House Restaurant the group named its officers and discussed the issue of poker machines. "Our concern is to make sure the revenues are replaced," said Jesus (Gere) Guerrero. He added that he un­derstood 90 percent of the reve­nue collected from the machines goes towards the government's retirement fund. "There are 600

retirees here plus their families," he said.

Manning Muna, who was elected president of the retiree group, was a little more direct in his discussion of poker machines.

"They don't like Willy Tan be­cause of the color of his face, but if there was more local owners of poker machines they would feel different," said Muna. Muna also Said gambling was something that has been going on since be­fore Christ and no government regulations would stop it, so why not collect some revenues from its activities in the Common­wealth.

While taking no official posi­tion directly opposed or for the poker machines, the retiree group general expressed the main con­cern of having the government identify alternative revenue sources should poker machines be banned.

Malinda Matson and Her­bert DelRosario, representing theNMC Library, said they are

delighted with the gift DelRo­sario, who has been with the li­brary for three years, said '1t would be impossible for the li­brary to have acquired these

magazines without the help of Saipan's generous friend, Mrs. McCoy, and the kindness of PMO Lines." Matson, pointing out that this gift is important to the overall

development of the library, stated ''These magazines are a valuable addition to our li­brary's listings. We are very grateful for Mrs. McCoy's gen­erosity."

PA CB AR radar move· will be a big job By Tom Anderson Staff Reporter Air Force Space Command surveillance radar will be brought into

Saipan this weekend if all goes well. A Military Sealift Command ship is expected to arrive off Saipan 's comt Friday carrying the radar.

The processes of moving the entire radar system up to its Mt Petosukara site could take as long as two weeks, said Air Force Space Surveillance Project Manager Capt Tarek Abboush. Most of the movement of the radar will be done early in the morning with the aid of the Department of Public Safety, he said, to ensure a minimum effect on traffic.

Plans currently are for the material to be off-loaded once the ship reaches Charlie Dock and staged in the nearby Army Reserve Center. Two of the lalge pieces of equipment will be moved from the center to the site on Wednesday at5:30 a.m. and more lalge items will be moved the following two Sundays including the large 30 foot in diameter radar dish. Other radar components include the antenna pedestal of 55 tons, and an antenna yoke of 65 tons. Special equipment of Sh~y Drayage Company of San Francisco will be used to ttanspon ~equipment

Also power and eable television lines will be raised during the transportation of the radar by cable teievision ~noel and Depan-
