Gadhafi blasts Reagan
on anniversary of coup
TRIPOLI, Libya (AP) — Moam-
mar Gadhafi celebrated his 17th an
niversary as Libya’s leader Monday
by deriding President Reagan and
praising Soviet leader Mikhail S.
Gorbachev, saying the Libyans and
Russians share common interests.
“Reagan is a madman, physically
and psychologically sick,” Gadhafi
told a flag-waving crowd of 5,000 in
Green Square, gathered to hail the
Sept. 1, 1969. military coup that
brought him to power.
As the crowd held aloft his por
trait and applauded, the 44-year-old
colonel gestured with a silver pointer
as he vowed to recruit an army from
Central America, Africa and Asia if
the United States didn’t cease what
he called its confrontational policies.
“If Reagan doesn’t stop his stupi
dities I will form an international
army to fight America everywhere,
and I’m sure that in a few years the
world will be rid of this new Nazi
empire,” he said.
Flanked by Soviet officials, Gad
hafi later reviewed a 90-minute mili
tary parade by more than 18,000 sol
diers and Soviet-made tanks, SA-5
surface-to-air missiles and Scud
ground-to-ground missiles.
Gadhafi mixed insults to Reagan
and criticism of U.S. policy in his
speech with compliments for Mos
cow, which he said stood by its re
sponsibilities toward Libya.
The Soviets have supplied Libya
with two frigates, MiG jet fighters
and military transport planes to re
place losses from U.S. attacks in the
Gulf of Sidra in March and on Tri
poli and Benghazi in April.
Gadhafi’s anti-American outburst
came after four months of silence
following the U.S. air raid on April
15, when sites hit included his home
in Tripoli. An adopted baby daugh
ter was one of those killed in the air
strikes.
Washington said the strike was in
retaliation for purported Libyan
support of terrorist attacks which
killed Americans.
Schools adopting AIDS policies
NEW YORK (AP) — Pupils with
AIDS are attending school this fall in
Kokomo, Ind., and Overland, Mo.,
while in Tucson, Ariz., a child with
the disease will study at home until
the school district works out a policy.
In Seattle, no AIDS cases have
been reported in public school class
rooms, but the district is ready with a
policy should the problem arise.
A spot check by The Associated
Press shows a growing number of
school authorities are taking steps to
deal with the fatal disease, and most
are leaning toward allowing its
young victims to attend class, pro
vided they have no obviously conta
gious symptoms.
In addition, many districts, in
cluding Rochester, N.Y., Jefferson
County, Ky., and Minneapolis have
included lessons about AIDS in their
curricula, or plan to shortly. Wyom
ing will be making a film on AIDS
available to high schools.
Still, officials appear divided on
what the best policies are, or
whether it’s wise to have any hard-
and-fast rules.
Gary Marx, a spokesman for the
American Association of School Ad
ministrators in Washington, said,
“There is fear that medical facts
might not be correct or may change
over time.”
Since federal authorities began
keeping AIDS statistics in 1981,
there have been 36 reported cases
among children age 5 to 12, and 102
among 13- to 19-year-olds. But it’s
impossible to say how many school-
children have AIDS, since many of
the children have since died or are
too ill to attend school. And there
may be un reported cases.
Maine calls for case-by-case rul
ings, but its guidelines add, “for
most AIDS-infected schoolchildren,
the benefit of an unrestricted setting
would outweigh the risk of their ac
quiring potentially harmful infec
tions and the apparent non-existent
risk of transmitting AIDS."
Other jurisdictions, such as Seattle
and the state of T ennessee, also call
for case-by-case rulings but say that
in general, efforts should be made to
let the children attend school.

Baby dies after organ rejection
LOS ANGELES (AP) — The child
known as Baby James, who under
went one of a series of pioneering in-
fant-to-infant heart transplants, died
after his body rejected his implanted
heart, a hospital spokeswoman said
Monday.
The 1 '/a-year-old boy died about 9
p.m. Sunday, said Anita Rockwell,
spokesman for Loma Linda Univer
sity Medical Center, 60 miles east of
Los Angeles.
Rockwell said his death followed a
futile search for another donor or
gan to replace the heart he received
April 26.
Rockwell identified the child as
Nicholas Lawrence Miller.
The child’s real name was kept se
cret until his death.
He was adopted by Thomas and
Jayne Miller, of Redwood City, im
mediately after his birth FeS. 15,
1985.
The boy died during an acute re
jection episode, Rockwell said.
After being admitted to the hospi
tal Saturday, the baby received treat
ment to stop his body’s immune sys
tem from rejecting the organ as
foreign tissue.
But, Rockwell said, “the rejection
process could not be controlled or
reversed despite vigorous efforts by
the transplant team.”
The Miller boy was the third of six
infants to receive pioneering baby-
to-baby heart transplants oy Dr.
Leonard Bailey.
Bailey stirred medical controversy
in Oct. 26, 1984 when he implanted
a baboon’s heart in the newborn
known as Baby Fae.
She died 20'/z days later.
The Miller child was the second of
the six to die.

Mexican leader says nation ‘can’t lose heart’|“
MEXIGO CITY (AP) — Despite a
year marked by the devastating
Mexico City earthquake and another
steep fall in oil prices, President Mi
guel de la Madrid said Monday that
Mexico “cannot afford to lose heart
now.”
In his fourth state-of-the-union
message, de la Madrid recognized
the strains and pressures buffeting
Mexico from the drug trade and its
massive foreign debt, but said “the
constant problems have not made us
succumb to anguish or despair.”
The president is almost two-thirds
through a six-year term marked by
almost constant crisis. He said the
objective for the remaining two
years of his term is “to set ourselves
firmly back on the road to growth
within a context of stability.”
The state-of-the-union message
traditionally starts observance of
September as “the month of patriot
ism,” including Independence Day
Sept. 15.
T he president’s Institutional Rev
olutionary Party has controlled Mex
ico since 1929. The 41 deputies of
the opposition National Action Party
ordered a boycott of the speech to
protest alleged election fraud in the
northern states of Chihuahua and
Durango in July.
