iyu one nas ciaimea responsibility for two attacks inside the British army’s heaquarters. By Shawn Pogatchnik Associated Press LISBURN, Northern Ireland — Bombers struck in Northern Iceland Monday for the first time since the IRA called off a cease-fire two years ago, ietonating two car bombs inside the British army’s heavily defended head quarters. Thirty-one people were wounded. There was no claim of responsibil ity. Whether the attack was carried out by the Irish Republican Army or by another anti-British group might deter mine whether the province’s pro-Brit ish paramilitaries call off their own cease-fire — and send Northern Ire land back into retaliatory violence. The first bomb went off without warning in a parking lot inside fhiepval Barracks, the main camp for the 18,000 army troops in the British ruled province. A second detonated 20 minutes later near the base’s hospital, appar ently to ambush passing soldiers, medi cal staff and people wounded by the first bomb. As flames and black smoke bil lowed from the blast site, soldiers and chefs hauled off the wounded on foam mattresses. Some of the people injured in the second blast included medical staff attending to the victims of the first. The army said 21 of the injured were soldiers and 10 were civilians— including the three most seriously hurt. One man was critically wounded and four received serious head, chest and leg wounds. The less seriously wounded included an 8-year-old girl and an 18-year-old woman who were treated for shock and released. Army forensic scientists estimated that the two bombs contained a total of500 to 1,000 pounds of homemade explosive. Each left a deep crater in the pavement. The attack inside what, until now, had been Northern Ireland’s most un touchable army installation deals an embarrassing blow to the British forces. Thiepval lies in Lisburn, a pre dominantly Protestant suburb south west of Belfast, and is home to the army’s senior commanders, key offic ers’ families and its elite bomb squad. ^ Thiepval has a single entrance 1 guarded by armed soldiers and secu rity cameras, with every car requiring 1 clearance—though most are not indi- l vidually searched. 1 Among the army facilities damaged 1 were offices, the base’s travel agency, ‘ the nursery and the chapel. The blasts 1 smashed windows in surrounding ci vilian homes and at a hospital that is 5 LL —-r* g Politicians 'must ensure that we do not . .... .

Four justices who might have a fi nancial stake disqualified themselves from considering the case. Their ac tion kept the court from gaining a quo rum of six jurists to take the case, and thereby sealed the outcome in a way that could benefit them financially. Monday’s action, although not a precedent-setting decision, had the ef fect of upholding a lower court’s rul ing that said it was illegal to begin re quiring federal judges to pay Medicare and Social Security taxes in 1983 and 1984. The fesalHs a victory for 16 fed eral judges who sued the government in 1989 over tax-law amendments en acted earlier in the decade. Those amendments for the first time extended Social Security and Medicare taxation to the president, vice president, members of Congress and the president’s Cabinet, federal judges and all new employees of the federal government’s executive and legislative branches.

In other action, the court: • Rejected the appeal of Theodore Kaczynski, who contended that his prosecution on Unabomber attacks has been so tainted by news leaks that the government should forfeit its right to make him stand trial. • Rejected a challenge by five Wis consin anti-abortion protesters to a fed eral law that protects access to abor tion clinics.

Jim Guy Tucker and two others to quash charges brought by Whitewater prosecutor Kenneth Starr that they plotted to hide profits from a multimillion-dollar cable television _ deal • Heard arguments in a dispute over a federal law that requires cable tele vision systems to carry local broadcast stations.

Germ work earns scientists a Nobel Prize STOCKHOLM, Sweden (AP) — An Australian working in the United States and a Swiss scientist won the Nobel Prize in medicine Monday for work that gives direction for design ing vaccines and treating cancer, mul tiple sclerosis and diabetes, x Hie scientists, who showed an im portant way that the body targets in vading germs, will share the $1.12 million award. This year’s prizes are the richest ever. Peter C. Doherty, 55, of Australia, works at the St. Jude Children’s Re search Hospital in Memphis, Tenn. i Rolf M. Zmkernagel, 52, heads the In stitute of Experimental Immunology in Zurich, Switzerland. They discovered how immune sys tem cells called T cells recognize vi rus-infected cells for elimination. That opened the door to understanding how the immune system recognizes germs and distinguishes them from the body’s own cells, the Karolinska Institute’s Nobel Assembly said. The winners did their research on mice in the early 1970s at the John Curtin School of Medical Research in Canberra, Australia.
