United Press International SHREVEPORT, La. — A Louisiana senator says radioac tive wastes will not be stored at a north Louisiana salt dome, and the site legally will be banned from future consideration as a waste repository. The Vacherie salt dome, which straddles the Webster- Bienville parish line, is at the bottom of a list of Five potential storage sites, Sen. J. Bennett Johnston, D-La., said Wednes day. Once dropped from that group, the dome legally will be eliminated from future dump site searches. “They are not going to store nuclear waste in Vacherie,” he said.

The baby was born by Caesa rian section nine weeks prema turely at the University of Cali fornia Hospital. Doctors said Wednesday the boy had an ex cellent chance of survival. The mother was 22 weeks pregnant when, on Jan. 24, she suffered a seizure, apparently caused by a brain cyst. When her brain stopped functioning, she was declared legally dead. Life support systems were used in hopes of saving the child. “I wasn’t optimistic about the baby,” said Dr. Robert Creasy, a professor of obstetrics at the medical center. “I thought it was too early in the pregnancy for the baby to survive.” Now, Creasy said, he and other physicians believe there is “potentially no limit” to the time a woman’s body can be sup ported to save a fetus in similar cases. The hospital declined to iden tify the family at the request of the father. But a spokesman said the woman was in her mid-20s and “very healthy” until her sei zure.
