Page 6 The Battalion Thursday, Aprils, Tennis star plans to teach others about AIDS Spade Phillips, P.l. by Matt Kowal; Continued from Page 1 sure Arthur will meet this chal lenge head on and become a lead ing voice in the fight to educate, raise funds and increase aware ness to all, especially our youth." Ashe, 48, said he had wanted to have privacy because he was not running for office or heading a company whose stockholders de pended on him. He spoke with emotion, and at one point his wife. Jeanne, had to take over reading his statement. He said: "I am not sick. I can function very well. And I plan to continue doing those things that I have done all along, if the public will let me. My wife and daughter are in good health and botn are HIV negative." He said he would work to teach others about AIDS and said he was inspired by Johnson's work. Ashe's heart operations in 1979 and 1983 occurred before testing of blood for the AIDS virus made blood transfusions safer. Dr. John E. Hutchinson, direc tor of cardiac surgery at St. Luke's Hospital in New York City when Ashe underwent both operations there, said he would check with the hospital to see whether blood products were used in either oper ation.

"A valve signal of this nature may be no more than a false sig nal," said Charles Batten, head of the operations group of NTSB. "It may also be many other things, which we are looking into. We will be looking into Seminole records as well." Batten said other valves be tween the salt dome facility and the Seminole valve should have checked any leak. "Had that valve moved, there were other valves between that valve and the cavern that were closed," Batten said. "It could be a malfunction of the detection equipment or it could be a move ment of the valve. "It could be a lot of things," he said. "We don't know, and I don't want to speculate until we have a chance to look at the other records." Mocharko said the initial spark that started the explosion could have come from a vehicle. A Seminole employee who had stopped at the home of Mitchell and Carolyn Hall to report the cloud of leaking gas witnessed an automobile drive into the vapor and disappear. Seconds later the gas exploded. "A Seminole worker was at the Hall's house when theytold j group AC/D school bus was coming, soli to stop it," Mocharko saicUfca Sa was running to stopit,hesf ^ pop m car drive into the gas. [ Ho "It is possible thecarthatc |.so mai into that cloud of gas migln Bs it p< stalled and when they tm restart it , that might haves I off," Mocharko said.

Governor's office refuses disaster aid for destroyed area Continued from Page 1 fice, said uninsured victims still have ample recourse. "Ed Laundy has assured me that they will call the Red Cross and make sure they will have money available to help these people to rebuild their homes," Morgan said. "There will also be money available through other sources." Morgan said she was not sur prised by Laundy's decision. "I personally did not think we would get the aid," she said. "We had a major disaster — and he agreed it was a disaster — but FEMA only helps if peo ple have no other coverage." Morgan said the Red Cross would coordinate and distribute any aid from outside organiza tions or individuals. Wesley resident Darlene Konieczny, 37, said insurance will pay for repairs to her dam aged home eventually, but she is not sure what to do in the mean time. "We want to know what they're going to do about putting us up,' Konieczny said. "We have no place to live." Konieczny said she felt Semi nole Pipeline Co., the company that owns the salt dome facility, has not dealt properly with the situation. "Nobody contacted us," Konieczny said. "They should have come to us and asked what they could do to help us, but no one has." With or without immediate aid, Konieczny said she feels lucky to be alive. "I looked down the road to ward the explosion and I saw what could have happened," she said. "We'll make it. I've never been a quitter." Organizers prepare for Muster Continued from page!
