After a ceremony that featured full military honors, Reagan said E eace prospects for Central America ave been enhanced because of the agreement Duarte and four other area presidents signed two months ago. Some administration officials have been privately critical of Duarte for signing the peace agreement, contending that it does not address key questions, such as Soviet-Cuban military ties with Nicaragua’s leftist government.

The discoveries that led to both prizes came by accident when the sci entists were looking for something else, said members of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, which chose the winners. Each Nobel carries a cash prize of about $340,000, which is divided if more than one laureate is named for each prize. Chemists Donald J. Cram of the University of California at Los An geles; Charles J. Pedersen, retired from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology; and Jean-Marie Lehn of the Universite Louis Pasteur in Strasbourg, France, won the chemis try prize. They developed molecules that can link up with particular other molecules, a principle now used in medical testing. Tneir work could lead to an endless supply of energy by extracting hydrogen from water, academy member Bo Malmstrom said. It also could give insight into crucial biological reactions. West German Georg Bednorz and Swiss K. Alex Mueller won the phys ics prize for developing ceramic material that can act as a supercon ductor at a higher temperature than before. Superconductors conduct electric ity without losing current to resis tance. Their application has been limited because they must be chilled well below minus 400 degrees Fahr enheit. ITOR: $599.

The Commerce Department said the merchandise trade deficit, the shortfall between imports and ex ports, was down from the record $ 16.5 billion gap posted in July. Despite the one-month im provement, acting Commerce Secre tary Bruce Smart said the deficit “continues on an unacceptably high g lateau,” with the United States still uying nearly twice as much as its sells. For the first eight months of 1987, the trade deficit has been running at an annual rate of $ 171.1 billion. your loan amount! FIRST VENTURE GROUP 696-6601 16t9/25 DEFENSIVE DRIVING PICKET DISMISSAL.

Among the best are bananas, strawberries, potatoes and orange and grapefruit juice. Skim milk is another good source, he said.

The three-alarm fire at the Can ton Tea House was extinguished within a half-hour, but authorities remained at the scene treating in jured people as a crowd developed in the busy neighborhood. There was no immediate word on what caused the explosion. Wit nesses said the fire began in the back of the building near the kitchen and spread to the front. Fire Chief Ed Phipps said the cause was under investigation. Asked if it could be anything but a gas explosion, he replied: “I don’t think it was a bomb.” Paramedic Robert Navarro said 25 people were injured. Four were in critical condition with burn inju ries and 16 were hospitalized in all. Bring This Ad in For 10% OFF The "FUNNY BONE!"
