Committee OKs prayer
meetings after school
United Press International
WASHINGTON — The Senate
Judiciary Committee approved a
bill Thursday to permit public-
elementary and high school stu
dents to meet for prayer or Bible
study in classrooms outside school
hours.
The panel endorsed, 11-4, a
proposal by Sen. Jeremiah De
nton, B-Ala., requiring schools to
give students who want to meet
before or after school for religious
purposes the same chance to use
classroom space as other clubs.
“The meeting can be Jewish
students, Moslem students, stu
dents of any denomination,” De
nton said. “The point is they must
be granted equal access.”
The measure is one of several The American Civil Liberties
proposed to relax the prohibition
on school prayer established by
1962 and 1963 Supreme Court rul
ings. - .
There is no federal law or Sup
reme Court ruling barring stu
dents from holding religious
meetings on public school
grounds.
Union testified against the mea
sure on First Amendment
grounds in April, calling it a subtle
way to reimpose religion on
others.

Haitian officials
deny AIDS link
United Press International
BOSTON — Haitian officials
say their nation is being unfairly
linked to AIDS, discouraging
tourists and investors, but Amer
ican health officials say Haitians
compose a large number of high-
risk cases.
“Haiti has sufficient problems
without being selected as a scape
goat for a mysterious ailment that
has, sadly, descended largely
upon the American homosexual
community,” Fritz Cineas, Haiti’s
ambassador to the United States,
wrote in the New England Journal
of Medicine.
“We, as a black nation, well
understand the pains of world dis
crimination, he said, adding he
trusted the United States would
be “careful to ensure that its
medic-ill conclusions are based on
objective, thoroughly researched
conclusions and not on biased con
jecture.”
“The volume of media stories
relating Haitians and AIDS has
cast a pall of gloom over the coun
try, deterring potential business
investors and tourists from ven
turing too near,” he said.
But a spokesman for the Cen
ters for Disease Control in Atlan
ta, which conducts surveillance
reports on acquired immune defi
ciency syndrome, said Haitians
are rightly classified as one of the
four risk groups.
“It is unfortunate but we have
evidence that Haitians may be at a
higher risk than other groups,”
said CDC spokesman Chuck
Fallis.
Exactly 5.1 percent of the more
than 2,200 AIDS cases in the Un
ited States were among Haitians,
Fallis said.
Most cases of AIDS — which
strips the body of its immunity
system and leaves victims open to
a host of opportunistic infections
— have been reported in homose
xual men. Drug abusers and
hemophiliacs comprise the other
risk groups.
Fallis said Haiti — a nation with
a population of 6 million — is
second behind the United States
in reported AIDS cases with 36 —
20 of them fatal.

The hole was ripped open by 1
million pounds of explosives set off
by a bomb when the Japanese
attacked Pearl Harbor Dec. 7,
1941. Nearly 1,200 Marines and

“It blew this big piece of de
cking out and just laid it out over
the side,” diver Gary Cummins,
USS Arizona Memorial superin
tendent, said Wednesday at the
start of a week-long survey.
The survey is the first extensive
probe of the wreckage since the
warship sank eight minutes after
being bombed 42 years ago.
“There is a tremendoussll
dup,” Cummins said. “Until
