Reagan’s long March’ reaches China
President in Peking on good will tour
United Press International
AG AN A, Guam — President
Reagan arrives in Peking today
to a rare 21-gun salute, flowers
from school children and an
outward show of good will from
the leaders of the communist
government he once scorned.
Guam, a U.S. territory occu
pied by the Japanese in World
War II, was the final overnight
slop on Reagan’s island-hop
ping “long journey for peace,” a
trip he used to dramatize the
emergence of Asia and the Pa
cific as America’s most impor
tant market for trade and a re
gion with important strategic
considerations.
Prior to the final 2,800 mile
flight to Peking, White House
officials voiced hope Reagan’s
six-day slate visit will go as
smoothly as the events of the
last week.
For their part, Chinese lead
ers took pains to make the visit a
success and place the seal of
permanence on 12 years of U.S-
Sino friendship.
The first 12 hours were to be
heavy on pomp and ceremony
and light on substantive dis
cussions.
Reagan was to be met at Pe
king’s Capitol Airport by a small
welcoming delegation slated to
include Foreign Minister Wu
Xueqian and school children
bearing flowers for the presi
dent and the first lady.
After having tea with Wu and
his wife, Reagan was scheduled
for a 33-minute motorcade into
the heart of Peking for a formal
welcome — martial music, mili
tary color guard and more bou-
quel-ladden children — in Tia-
namen Square, a sprawling
plaza adjacent to the Great Hall
of the People that has seen dis
plays of revolutionary fervor by
crowds of 1 million or more
Chinese.
Thursday evening the Rea
gans join Premier Zhao Ziyang
and three dozen other U.S. and
Chinese officials as guests of
President Li Xiannian at an el
egant dinner within the walled
compound of the Diaoyutai
Stale Guest House.
The 21-gun salute planned
for Reagan was a departure for
the Chinese, who reinstituted
the custom only recently during
a visit by Japanee Prime Min
ister Yasuhiro Nakasone, who
like Reagan, came to Peking
bearing pledges for help for
China’s economic development.
Reagan is the first incumbent
American president to visit Pe
king since the restoration of
diplomatic ties in 1979.
Summer dorm applications available
By SALLY SCHWIERZKE
Reporter
Applications for summer
school housing are being ac
cepted from current dorm resi
dents this week, and for the first
time Northside dormitories will
be open during the summer.
Current dorm residents will
be given priority over those off-
campus students applying for
housing this summmer, says
Lesley A. Stoup, staff assistant
in the Housing Office. Applica
tions from off-campus students
will he accepted on May 1.
“We are not anticipating that
many more students this sum
mer,” Stoup says. “The North-
side dorms will he open because
of the maintenance schedule.”
The maintenance will involve
painting and installing new win
dows in the Corps dorms.
Hughes, Dunn, Underwood,
McFadden, Dorm 4 and Dorm
6 will be open for the expected
1,400 men. Haas, Spence and
Krueger will he open for the
1,100 women.
“One of the concerns was the
eating arangements,” Stoup
says. “We will try to accomodate
those who prefer the board
plan and place them in the
dorms dose to the Commons
area.” Students may indicate
Suit may be filed
over nuclear site
United Press International
TULIA — Attorney General
Jim Mattox Wednesday said his
office might file a lawsuit
against federal energy officials
if one of two proposed Panhan
dle sites are chosen to store
high-level nuclear waste.
The sites in Swisher and Deaf
Smith counties are under con
sideration as a national reposi
tory for waste from the coun
try’s nuclear power plants.
Mattox said the Department
of Energy has ignored the fact
that the sites are in agricultural
areas and involve the Ogallala
and the Santa Rosa aquifers.
“My office and other stale
agencies will he submitting com
ments on the DOE’s draft of
Panhandle sites toward the end
of May,” Mattox said. “We will
oppose the current draft.”
The sites near Tulia and
Hereford are among nine sites
in six stales under study as pos
sible locations for the first na
tional radioactive dump. The
other sites are in Nevada, Loui-

their preference for board plan
on their application.
Students also may request a
private room when filling out
their applications. Private
rooms will be available in
Krueger, Haas and Spence for
the women and Dunn, McFad
den and Underwood for men.
The cancelation date for the
first session is May 30 and May
6 for the second sessioin. Dor
mitory assignments should be
out by June 1, Stoup says. If you

siana, Mississippi, Utah and
Washington.
Plans calls for partial opening
of the dump by 1998.
Mattox said the decision on
whether to file suit against the
DOE would depend on whether
federal officials considered
state officials’ objections and
also would depend on
guidelines DOE is slated to re
lease this summer.
Government officials indicate
they plan to narrow the list of
potential sites to five or six by
this summer.
Gov. Mark White also has
criticised the DOE’s work and
has slated a Thursday night
meeting in Hereford between
residents and state nuclear offi
cials.
If either Panhandle site is se
lected, the waste would be put
in salt beds below the water sup
ply. Residents have said they
are concerned about possible
contamination and also about
the lowering of property values.
