Chinese say more
students arrested
for protest actions
BEIJING (AP) — The govern
ment Tuesday announced the ar
rests of more students involved in
the pro-democracy movement and
revised visa requirements in an ap
parent move to prevent others from
fleeing.
The United States urged China to
spare the lives of the 11 demonstra
tors sentenced to death for partici
pating in protests, and to pardon all
arrested.

China kept up its surveillance of
foreign journalists, and the Ca
nadian government said it would
lodge a formal protest after a Ca
nadian reporter said authorities
tried to abduct her.

was one of the leaders of the democ
racy movement that the military
crushed earlier this month was
caught and returned to the capital,
the official media reported.
dered lower courts to “severely pun
ish counterrevolutionary elements
who have been charged.”
In Washington, White House
press secretary Marlin Fitzwater said
the United States appealed for clem
ency for the condemned and par
dons for those arrested.
“Sentences of death in Shanghai
and Beijing could only deepen the
wounds of the past few weeks,” he
said.
Fitzwater declined to say how the
United States would act if China car
ried out the executions.

Liu Gang, 28, was apprehended
Monday in Hebei province just
south of Beijing, radio and televison
news reports said.
Gang was one of 21 students on a
wanted list the government issued
last week. They are accused of mas
terminding the seven weeks of dem
onstrations for greater freedom and
an end to official corruption.
So far, six of those students have
been arrested or have turned them
selves in. Authorities say they have
arrested more than 1,360 people for
participating in the democracy
movement.
A student who was not on the
wanted list was arrested for “spread
ing rumors” to the U.S. government-
funded Voice of America, the-
People’s Daily said Tuesday.
Tens of millions of Chinese listen
to the VO A and it has been a main
target of criticism by the Chinese
government, which accuses it of
spreading lies about the military
crackdown. The VGA’s bureau chief
was expelled last week along with a
reporter for the Associated Press.

The crackdown began the night
of June 3-4 when troops backed by
tanks fired on civilians and drove
thousands of protesters from Tia
nanmen Square in Beijing. The gov
ernment says about 300 people were
killed; Chinese witnesses and West
ern intelligence reports say as many
as 3,000 people died.
Last week, a Beijing court sen
tenced eight protesters to death and
a court in Shanghai condemned
three people for participating in
demonstrations in the cities.

North juror
accused of lying
during selection
WASHINGTON (AP) — A
federal judge Tuesday postponed
the sentencing of Oliver North to
consider allegations that one of
the jurors who convicted the for
mer presidential aide lied during
jury selection.
U.S. District Judge Gerhard A.
Gesell ordered a June 28 hearing
on defense allegations that juror
Tara King had used drugs before
the trial and had failed during
jury selection to disclose that
three of her brothers had arrest
records.
Gesell released defense
pleadings about the allegation
that had been filed under court
seal.
They contained copies of Dis
trict of Columbia Superior Court
records indicating that one of
King’s brothers, Samuel King Jr.
had an arrest record, including a
1987 conviction for armed rob
bery.
Two other brothers were ar
rested on other charges but the
cases were dismissed. A sister was
involved in a child-custody suit
with her estranged husband,
according to court records pro
duced by the defense.
Before the trial, King indicated
on a questionnaire for prospec
tive jurors that no member of her
family had ever been involved in
a criminal or civil case, either as a
witness or as the subject of an in
vestigation.
“This apparently intentional
misstatement raises serious ques
tions as to juror bias and impar
tiality,” North’s lawyers said.

ATHENS, Greece (AP) — A polit
ical crisis and new elections loomed
Tuesday as conservative leader Con
stantine Mitsotakis was given three
days to form a government but was
rejected by a possible left-wing coali
tion partner.
Both Mitsotakis’s New Democracy
Party and the communist-dominated
leftist alliance, who together won
nearly 60 percent of Sunday’s vote,
say a new government first must
punish those responsible for the
scandals of the defeated socialist ad
ministration of Premier Andreas Pa-
pandreou.
But the alliance of the pro-Soviet
Greek Communist Party and the
Greek Left Party, which finished
third, turned down Mitsotakis’ offer
to join in an interim government
that would investigate the corrup
tion.
The alliance also refuses to coop
erate with Papandreou, making the
possibility of new elections likely and
paralyzing Parliament.

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP)

school prom received a check for
$81.28 from her date Tuesday to
settle a dispute she had threatened
to drag through small claims court.
Tomontra Mangrum, 15, a sopho

She said she has continued to date
since the suit, and laughed when
asked if her current dates worry she
might sue them as well.
“Yes they do,” she said. “I hear

like that.’”
Shadd said he’s not angry with
Mangrum for suing him. But he still
