Austrian president denied U.S. visitation rights
WASHINGTON Austrian President Kurt Waldheim,
accused by Jewish groups of participating in Nazi war
crimes, was today barred from entering the United States
because of evidence that he persecuted people during
World War II, the Justice Department announced.
"The evidence collected . . . establishes a prima facie
case that Kurt Walcheim assisted or otherwise participated
in the persecution of persons because of race, religion,
national origin or political opinion," Justice Department
spokesman Terry Eastland said in a statement.
The decision was taken by Attorney General Edwin
Meese III on the advice of the State Department's legal
affairs bureau.
"The Department of Justice has therefore ordered, as
required by law, that Kurt Waldneim's name be added to the
Watchlist," said Eastland's statement. "His name will be
added to a lookout system "to alert consular officers as to
his prima facie ineligibility for a visa to enter the United
States," said the statement.
If Waldheim attempts to enter the country, he will be
stopped at the boder and told that, as he is on the Watchlist,
he may not enter. He has the right to an administrative
hearing if he wants to contest the matter.
The Justice Department says that, if Waldheim were to be
issued an oficial invitation to visit this country as the head

of state, the Justice Department would address the ques
tion of whether he should be permitted to enter. As a head
of state, he would normally have diplomatic immunity.
In Vienna, meanwhile, a spokesman for Waldheim Gerold
Christian, refused all comment for the moment.
President Reagan said he "reaffirmed the close and
friendly relations between our two countries and he has
stressed how important it is to continue these relations at
the same duality."
PTL board members won't let Baltker back
COLUMBIA, S.C. Two members of the new board of the PTL ministry
empire said Monday that its founder, the Rev. Jim Eakker, should not be
allowed to return in spite of his threat of a "holy war" tb regain it.
And the Rev. Bailey E. Smith said the board's chairman, the Rev. Jerry
Falwell, is considering resigning at Tuesday's board meeting in Fort Mill
and that if he does the rest of the board also might step down.
Smith said from First Baptist Church in Del City, Okla., that he can't say
exactly how much donations have decreased because of the PTL scandal
and his connection to it, but Falwell has said he has lost $2 million.
7iveo likely to adopt husbands traits
PHILADELPHIA Married couple become more similiar over the
years, but wives are more likely to change and even adopt the personality
and intellectual abilities of their husbands, according to a study.
"The explanation is that it's a function of the family environment and
economic resources available in that particular environment and how
successful the man is," said Dr. K. Warner Schaie, a professor of human
development at Penn State University.
The average age of wives in the study ranges from the mid-40s to the 90s.
"We have a lot of couples where the husband is the primary breadwinner,"
Schaie said in an interview.
Men with better jobs are able to create a family environment that is
conducive to intellectual growth, including traveling, atending plays and
taking adult education classes, he said.

munity and inconveniencing hundreds
of commuters. There were more than
550 arrests.
There were no incidents of violence
in the protest, which culminated three
days of demonstrations against Ameri
can policies in Central America and
southern Africa.
CIA spokeswoman Kathy Pherson
said that, so far as she knew, it was the
first large-scale protest at the agency
since the headquarters, about six miles
from Washington, D.C., opened 25 years
ago.
From shortly after dawn until about
10:30 a.m. EDT, demonstrators sat down
on roadways leading to the spy head
quarters, preventing vehicle access.
Some were escorted on foot by police to
a nearby precinct while others were
hauled away in paddy wagons, many
with their hands tied behind their
backs.
Among those arrested were antiwar
activists Daniel Ellsberg, a former Pen
tagon employee whose peace activism
dates back more than 20 years.

JOHANNESBURG, South Africa
Police fired birdshot and tear gas and
used whips Monday in running battles
with hundreds of student protesters,
both blacks and whites, at the Univer
sity of Cape Town.
It was believed to be the first clash
in which police fired guns to control
rioting at a predominantly white school,
and it was one of the most violent cam
pus disturbances since a national state
of emergency was declared in June
1986.
The violence followed a midday rally
by anti-apartheid student groups pro
testing a South African army com
mando raid on Saturday alleged guer
rilla targets in Zambia. After the rally,
students singing freedom songs marched
through the campus at the foot of Cape
Town's Table Mountain.
Journalists who were at the campus
said at least five students were hit by
birdshot, including one wounded in the
face. A free-lance photographer and
several students reportedly were hurt
by whips.
IMPORTANT F
"IT IS VEMY
MY CONTACT LENSES FIT
Like most people, I'm on the go alot. I tried contact lenses a few years ago and
was never really happy. Wearing contacts helped my vision but they became a
hassle because of the mild discomfort and occasional fuzzy vision.
I asked several of my friends who wear contacts to recommend a specialist,
and most of them recommended Dr. Powell at the International Contact Lens
Clinic.
I went to their clinic for a no charge consultation to talk about new contact
lenses. Their office offers complete contact lens services and complete optical
services including:
thorough examination, individual fitting, and close supervision
curbside parking, convenient central Lincoln location
appointments available lunch hours, and Saturdays
eight week trial program for
close observation of comfort and eye health
lens strength or fitting modification if indicated
no charge for damaged lenses
spare glasses, sunglasses and special solutions for sensitive eyes
a continuing care program future upgrading of contact lenses as
scientific progress is made.
I decided to have them fit my eyes and I was very comfortable with their
professional approach, their fees, and their thoroughness.
Everyone in their office helped me become a successful wearer. I consider
their office outstanding and I recommended them to all my friends.
