Best offer. 846-2583. 90t02/06 BOSTON (AP) — The barriers of two milleniums of an all-male hierarchy have been broken, and to the women who paved the way for Barbara Harris to be come an Episcopal bishop, her elevation seems like a miracle. “I feel very, very happy,” said the Rev. Florence Tim- Oi Li, 81, the first clergywoman in the worldwide Angli can communion. “In my life, I can see the first woman bishop. It made me hopeful. Things are realized now.” Li stopped functioning as a priest in 1946 in response to pressure from Anglican bishops outside of China, where she was ordained in 1944, but on Saturday she and other pioneer clergywomen helped consecrate Harris. The ceremony made Harris the first woman bishop in a church that believes in apostolic succession — that the church leadership can be traced to the apostles. “I think it’s really helped a lot of us see how history is made,” said the Rev. I. Carter Heyward, one of 11 women “illegally” ordained in a service in Philadelphia in 1974 that paved the way for the Episcopal Church’s approval of women clergy two years later. While nearly all of the more than 8,000 people who packed the convention center shouted their approval, others fought right up to the end to preserve the tradi tion, dating back to Jesus Christ, of all-male bishops At the point in the ceremony when objections««; called for, John Jamieson, representing a groupofo; servative Episcopalians called the Prayer BookSocit: said her “pretended consecration” holds church la. “in contempt.” The Rev. James Hopkinson Cupit Jr. of NewYoii City said the election of a woman was “contrary toth unbroken tradition of 2,000 years of apostolic order. He said it may represent an “intractable impedimeii: to relations with other churches that believe in aposioH succession, such as the Roman Catholic Church a:,: Eastern Orthodoxy. The election ot the 58-year-old Harris as suffraga or assistant, bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Ma: chusetts in September has been the most controvers in recent years. She is the only woman in the 200-mei her House of Bishops. In addition to being the first woman bishop,Ham thought to be the first bishop elected after a divou and the first U.S. bishop, at least in modern times, lack both a seminary degree and an undergraduate! lege degree. $50.

The airline has ordered the mag azines removed from its fleet of more than 200 aircraft because the issue, which comes out at the end of this month, contains an article highly critical of Frank Lorenzo, chairman of Eastern and its Houston-based parent company, Texas Air Corp. In a brief directive to aircraft serv ice managers around the country, the company said: “It’s imperative that the current issue of Fortune magazine be removed immediately from all Eastern aircraft. “Dispose of all copies locally,” the directive said. “Have a member of management audit all aircraft to en sure compliance. Report accom plishment by tail number to Miami.” Lorenzo’s picture appears on the issue’s front cover. The article, early on, calls Lo renzo a “loose cannon.” It quotes past and present executives of Texas Air as saying that Lorenzo is a highly impulsive manager. The story talks of intrigue, backbiting and hi turnover. Eastern spokesman Robin Mai said the airline, which faces a Mai 4 strike threat by the Internatks Association of Machinists, had in;: ing to gain by leaving the mag® on the Eastern planes. “The profile of (Texas Air chairman was unflattering at would be viewed in that vein byi passengers,” Matell told the Mil Heniltl. “Considering the cune environment, we decided to rem the issue.” West German leaders, Secretary Baker begin critical weapons talks BONN, West Germany (AP) — Secretary of State James A. Baker III opened critical talks Sunday with West German leaders who have balked at a NATO plan to upgrade short-range nuclear missiles in Eu rope. Baker flew in from London after sessions with British leaders and im mediately met with Foreign Minister Hans-Dietrich Genscher, a strong advocate of reducing nuclear ten sions in Europe. Baker, on a six-day trip to visit the 15 U.S. NATO allies, told reporters during the flight he was not worried about West German Chancellor Hel mut Kohl’s statement last week that the Lance missiles now deployed are adequate until 1995. Under the proposal before the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, the current 70-mile range would be extended with new rockets that could hit targets about 320 miles Genscher, greeting Baker at rain swept Bonn-Cologne airport, pledged to “work cooperatively to gether.” Commenting on his meetings ear lier Sunday with Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher of Britain and Sir Geoffrey Howe, the foreign sec retary, Baker said he received sup port on many NATO issues. “So far, it seems to me, we’ve got agreement on a broad range of is sues, ranging from broad East-West themes to regional issues,” he said. He declined to report specifically what was said about the NATO plan during those meetings. Earlier, Baker had cautioned that his tour is “primarily an agenda-set ting trip” while President Bush’s ad ministration formulates its foreign and defense policies. away. “I think what we need to do is to find out exactly what the German government’s position is going to be,” Baker told reporters. However, Baker’s visit to West Germany comes after its leaders hinted in recent weeks they were un happy with the NATO proposal to begin replacing the short-range mis siles in Europe. Parents, lesbian fight to care for brain-damaged woman NASHWAUK, Minn. (AP) — When Donald Kowalski retired from the backbreaking life of a miner on Minnesota’s Iron Range, he looked forward to years of peace and lei sure. Instead, the 58-year-old Kowalski and his wife, Della, are spending their golden years at war with a les bian professor over who should care for their severely brain-damaged daughter, Sharon. The professor, Karen Thompson, says she deserves to be Ms.Kowalski’s caretaker because the two secretly considered themselves married be fore Ms. Kowalski was paralyzed in a 1983 automobile crash caused by a drunken driver. Mr. Kowalski and his wife say the claim is bogus. They insist Thomp son’s interest in their daughter cen ters on money Thompson has gener ated by publicizing the case in speeches across the country and a book. Thompson says the money is in tended to help Ms. Kowalski, and she questions her parents’ motives. “They would rather she be a vege table than a lesbian,” she said. “Until Sharon’s rights are protected, I will fight this.” Thompson, who has become a na tional spokesman for gay and lesbian rights, has helped establish two funds for her friend and organized rallies in 21 U.S. cities in August to observe “Free Sharon Kowalski Day.” According to court records, the two women had lived together for four years. Ms. Kowalski, 32, who was a high school physical education teacher, had named Thompson, 41, as the beneficiary of her $50,000 life insurance policy before the accident. The courts have acknowledged the relationship but have kept Mr. Kowalski as his daughter’s guardian, giving him power to make decisions for her and initially allowing him to deny Thompson visiting privileges. But in December, a judge ordered a re-evaluation of Ms. Kowalski to determine how soundly she thinks and whether she is capable of mak ing decisions about her own care. Ms. Kowalski, who is in a nursing home near Nashwauk, has lost the use of her limbs and is unable to speak but can use the fingers of her right hand and communicates by typing, shaking her head and using an alphabet board. Under the judge’s new order, any one is allowed to see her if she “re liably requested” to see them. Sununu: Bus! still defends John Tower WASH INGTON (AP) - Pres dent Bush is standing upforDt fense Secretary-designate Jolt' G.

Nunn also expressed conccrtl over Tower’s drinking. No date has been set for wl committee to vote on the noml nation. “The Senate is in the process cl doing about the same thing "I did before the name went up| Sununu said on the ABC-TVm terview program, “This Weefl with David Brinkley.” “We chased down through iff FBI all those allegations," Sufi unu said. “The Senate has to work si course. But the President is cotj vinced that the same thing dl happen as they go through thsl that those allegations will be prt| ven not to have any basis and tltfl when they do vote, John Tottf will be confirmed.” 6O7402S®| unu denied that the administrrj tion had withheld from Demi cratic senators niateri!| developed on Tower by the FBI | “Every time the Senate Ij asked us for information, we ha'I encouraged the FBI to proviij it,” he said.
