ment at this time,” Duke said Sun
day. "Millions of Americans are
supporting me. ... I feel this is only
the beginning. I know the kind of
vote I got in Louisiana I could
have gotten in almost any state."
Even while conceding defeat
in Saturday's gubernatorial elec
tion to Edwin Edwards, the for
mer Ku Klux Klan grand wizard
immediately began sounding na
tional themes, saying his message
of protecting the rights of whites,
turning back affirmative action,
reforming welfare and "preserv
ing Western heritage” have struck
a significant chord across the
country.
"I will be a spokesman for
these ideas, much as Jesse Jackson
is a spokesman for liberal poli
cies,” said Duke, who ran as a Re
publican. "The time is coming
when the American majority will
find its way to its rights and its
heritage.”
Behind the scenes, Duke ex
pressed delight with scattered
polls giving him more name
recognition than some Democratic
presidential contenders. And on
Sunday he returned to the nation
al talk-show circuit he visited fre
quently during the campaign,
hopping from CNN to ABC to
PBS.
"Everybody knows who I am
now,” Duke said in an interview
with The Associated Press. "And
they know what I stand for. It's
the same thing they talk about in
their kitchens. They're starting to
talk about them publicly now.'
Analysts said Duke's heavy
loss to Edwards probably ruled
out a statewide campaign next fall
for the former Nazi sympathizer,
but not a repeat of his 1988 foray
into select presidential primaries,
or a race for Congress next year
that would allow him to take his
messages to the Washington?

Serb militias and the Serb-led army have
captured nearly a third of Croatia, which has
refused to give up any land in exchange for
sovereignty. Serbia claims ethnic Serbs would
be persecuted in an independent Croatia.
Croatian defense officials contacted in Osi-
jek, the center of the eastern Slavonia region,
confirmed a report by the Belgrade-based Tan-
jug news agency that Borovo Naselje had fallen
to the army and Serb insurgents.
They said fighting was continuing in Vuko-
var itself an hour after the 6 p.m. truce was to
start.
Tanjug reported that Borovo Naselje fell af
ter several days of intense fighting, and that
Yugoslav flags were hoisted on many of the
high-rise buildings still standing.
Serb-led forces previously had been report
ed within about 200 yards of Vukovar's center,
but it was not clear how much of the town they
controlled.
Many of Vukovar's buildings have been
leveled during the three-month siege and 500
people are trapped in the city's bombed-out
hospital.
Croatian reports said Osijek was shelled
overnight, and that sporadic shooting was re
ported in the Adriatic port of Dubrovnik.
A ferry packed with 3,500 peoplete
the besieged city took people to Pula,
lands of Rab and Mali Losinj and the
home port, Rijeka.
On Friday in New York, U.N. Secret-
General Javier Perez de Cuellar said(oi
U.S. Secretary of State Cyrus Vance, hissfi
representative in the Yugoslav crisis, and

When anorexia and bulimia
progress, weakness and irregulari
ties might develop in the heart
that can be life threatening.
Some of the signs of eating dis
orders include:
• "feeling fat" when weight is
normal or abnormally low
• feeling uncomfortable after
consuming a normal or small
sized meal
• much time is spent thinking
about food, eating, weight and
body image
• categorize food as "good" or
"bad"
• feel anxious when eating
If you notice that a friend
might have an eating disorder,
consider some of the following
steps:
• learn more about the disor
der by talking to a professional
• talk to your friend but keep
the conversation informal and
confidential
• express your concerns to
your friend about their health, not
their weight or appearance
• if your friend acknowledges
a problem, suggest some possible
resources
• do not take on the role of
counselor or food monitor
Although the majority of peo
ple who experience anorexia or
bulimia are women, men are not
excluded from developing the dis
