At least 100 deal
in Turkey quake
Road
By James C. Helicke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Turkey quake kil
more than 80
CELTIKSUYU, Turkey —
Pausing now and then to listen
for small voices, rescuers franti
cally searched for dozens of chil
dren buried in the rubble of their
dormitory after an earthquake
struck southeastern Turkey on
Thursday. At least 100 people
were killed and 1,000 injured.
Search teams were in contact
with four of the children, state-
owned TRT television reported
from the scene, but there was lit
tle sign of 83 other children
trapped in the collapsed four-
story building.
Some of the parents were giv
ing up hope. Cevriye Bartir, the
mother of missing 15-year-old
Sinan, sat on the step of a fire
truck wailing, “My dead son, let
me be sacrificed instead.”
The 198 students in the dorm,
ages 7 to 16, were asleep when
the tremor hit early Thursday
morning and collapsed the build
ing. At least 15 were killed,
along with a teacher. But 96 oth
ers were pulled out alive.
Steel bunk beds and steel
closets helped hold up some of
the walls of the school, saving
many lives, rescuers said.
Soldiers, rescuers and ordi
nary citizens lifted huge con
crete slabs with cranes and jack
hammers in a search for sur
vivors. Some just used their bare
hands.
Every now and then, noisy
equipment was turned off to
allow rescuers to listen for
voices. Dogs also sniffed for
survivors.
The quake was centered just
outside Bingol, a city of 250,000
in a largely rural area mostly
inhabited by Kurds. The school
was intended for the children of
poor farmers from villages that
have no schools.
Relatives rushed toward sol
diers every time a rescued child
was carried out on a stretcher.
“Oh my God! Oh my God!
My son is lost, he is lost, he is
lost! I cannot take the pain any
more!” cried out Sefika Celik,
A magnitude 6.4 earthquake

collapse.
Breen loved being outdoors.
He was an Eagle Scout and had
spent several summers as a
canoe guide.
Breen’s brother, Sean, said the
family has mixed feelings about
the Bonfire Memorial, but that
there is no doubt of his brother’s
loyalty to A&M.
“Chris was deeply devoted to
his family and friends and that is
exactly what his legacy is, as well
as a proud graduate and former
Bonfire brown pot,” said Sean, an
Austin lawyer.

morning hours of Nov. 18, 1999.
“It is going to be striking and
fitting,” Richard West said.
“People are going to be
impressed.”
West said the three main
things in West’s life were A&M,
his church, A&M Methodist and
the Corps of Cadets.
West said that because these
were all so important to Nathan
they will be represented on his
memorial.
COLUMBIA, S.C (AP) -
state lawmakers said Thursdi
they are upset by photos
retired Sen. Strom Thurmond,
former supporter of segrega
tion, on the cover of the newesl
edition of the state's Legislate
Manual.
The front cover of the
manual features a recent po
trait of Thurmond, a Republic®
who retired in January after 4
years in the Senate. The
cover has photos of Thurmoail
as a baby and as a soldier
World War II.
Democratic state Sen. Rob
Ford said the photos
Thurmond from the earlier e
when he supported segregati
are an insult to black Soul!
Carolinians.
"This is the old Strom
Thurmond," agreed state Sen
Darrell Jackson, a Demociat
"It's difficult, as we live intliis
new century, to be constant
reminded of the past."

According to an October
2000 article in The Bryan-

American young man” and say
his loss was “devastating to the
community.”

Fiber-rich diet may
prevent colon cancer
LONDON — New research
has revived the notion that a l#
fiber diet may protect against
colon cancer.
Long-standing recommenda
tions for high-fiber diets have
taken a hit over the last few yeais
after a handful of carefully con
ducted studies failed to find*
benefit.
But experts say two majnt
studies published this week in
The Lancet medical journal ^
one on Americans and the otW
on Europeans — indicate previ
ous research may not have exam
ined a broad enough range b
fiber consumption or a wide
enough variety of fiber sourcestn
show an effect.
“These two new finding
show that the fiber hypothesis i*
still alive,” said the leader of tfe
American study, Ulrike Peters.
