WASHINGTON — President Bush returned to the White House on Sunday after a five-day Florida vacation that his spokesman said had lifted the president's spirits and readied him for a "dignified and cooperative" final two months in power. "The president's in good spirits," Marlin Fitzwater, the presidential press secretary, told reporters just before Bush and his wife, Barbara, left Boca Grande, a quaint village on tiny Gasparilla Island off Florida's Gulf Coast. The president and Mrs. Bush flew by helicopter to nearby Fort Myers airport, where they parted company. Bush took Air Force One, a Boeing 747, back to Washington, and Mrs. Bush flew a backup jet to Houston to go house hunting. Fitzwater said the Bushes had been deeply disappointed by the Nov. 3 election defeat but had used their time in Boca Grande to resign themselves to the loss. "You know, when you fight hard it's like a football game, really," Fitzwater said. "You put everything into it, you fought hard for six, eight months, you think you're gonna win. It's your whole life, and so it takes a day or two to turn around your thinking. But by this time everybody is in good shape." Fitzwater said Bush was committed to a graceful handoff of power to Bill Clinton. Clinton Continued from Page 1 Adm. Thomas Moorer, former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, dissented, saying, "Sooner or later you're going to have men kissing each other and hugging and whatever . . . and the other sailors or soldiers or Marines or airmen would see it, and they would begin to give them names. Then, the first thing you know, there would be a fight." "I defy you to find a military man who has had the responsibility of training a unit and participating in combat that does not agree with me," Moorer said. Former Secretary of the Navy John Lehman said that "homosexual activity is absolutely incompatible with life aboard ship and life in the military" but "a person's orientation and . . . and what he does on his own private time shouldn't be the purview of Big Brother and of the government." Nunn discounted reports that overturning the ban would lead to wholesale resignations in the military.

Many Lithuanians blame Sajudis and its leader, Vytautas Landsbergis, for the failing economy. In the first round of voting on Oct. 25, the backlash led to a surprise victory for the Democratic Labor Party. Of 141 parliament seats, the former Communists won 44, while Sajudis got just 18 — a stunning drop from the 97 seats it had won two years ago. Three smaller parties also made gains at Sajudis' expense. The conservative Christian Democrats won 10 seats, liberal Social Democrats took five and the Polish Union got three. Sajudis has since fought back with an emotional campaign implying that the former Communists might surrender the country's hard-won independence. "A tear in God's eye: Lithuania, where are you going?" Sajudis asked voters in black- and-white posters splashed across the capital. The former Communists needed only about half the 61 seats in the runoff to gain a majority in parliament. If they fell short, they said', they would try to form a center-left coalition with the smaller parties. "Sure, our roots are in the Communist Party, but we're a completely different party now. A purely social democratic party," the vice chairman of the former Communist Party, Neris Germanas, told The Associated Press. He said the Democratic Labor Party was modeling itself after Finland's leftist coalition, Sweden's Social Democrats and Israel's Labor Party. "We are moving to the right, to the liberal side and free-market economics," he said. Personalities have played a key factor in the campaign. Algirdas Brazauskas, the former Communist Party secretary who heads the Democratic Labor Party, is a towering, ruddy faced politician with the same populist appeal as Russia's Boris Yeltsin. Brazauskas, 60, said during the campaign that he no longer believed in traditiona Communist ideology and that was devotedli Lithuanian independence. He has retained hi popularity since December 1989, whe| Lithuania's Communist Party broke from I central Soviet party in Moscow. Landsbergis, also 60, is a former musii professor whom many Lithuanians conside| ornrrn intellectual and distant. - - As he voted Sunday, he said a victory bf 0 ^ 1 ^ the former Communists "could do som harm" to the country's independence. Brazauskas and Landsbergis are likely t face each other again early next year ii Lithuania's first direct presidential electioi Landsbergis, who was elected by parliamen is expected to remain as a caretaker preside| until then. Lithuania may become the first formtl Soviet republic to vote Communists back inti office in parliamentary elections, but form! Communists remain in power in most of 111 other 14 republics.
