Student studies finance, but yearns to fl y

By ROBERT BARR
Associated Press

LOCKERBIE, Scotland — A radio
cassette player held the bomb that brought
down Pan Am Flight 103. but the identity
of the bomber still is not known, the top
investigator of the bombing said yester-
dav.

Investigators believe the explosive that
shattered the Boeing 747 on Dec. 21 was
placed aboard the aircraft in Frankfurt.
West Germany, where the flight began,
said detective Chief Superintendant John
On. It apparently had been put on the air-
craft as checked baggage.

“New positive lines of inquiry are
unfolding.“ he told a news conference in
this southwestern Scottish town where the
jumbo jet crashed, killing all 259 people
aboard and 11 on the ground.

“While there is insufficient evidence at
this stage to establish the identity of the
person or group responsible for this
dreadful crime, the progress made and the
cyidenet- obtained has been substantial."
Orr said.

Asked whether the investigation would
point to a specific country. ()rr said: “It
may.“

On Feb 8. the Jerusalem Post reported
the bomb that destroyed the jet was hidden
in a radiocassette recorder and was tra—
ced to Frankfurt.

That report quoted unidentified
investigators as saying the device was
similar. but not identical. to one found ear—
lier in the possession of members of
Ahmed Jibril's extremist Popular Front
for the Liberation of Palestine-General
Command. The group has denied involve
ment.

Orr said the brand name of the radio-
cassettc player had not been established
and would not say whether it was a pocket—
sized device or a larger model. Nor did he

say whether investigators had located the
detonator.

Anti-terrorist experts have said the ex
plosive most likely used was Semtex, an
odorless, highly malleable substance made
in Czechoslovakia and known to be used by
terrorist organizations.

Orr said he was "aware of some aspects
of the explosive that was used" but de-
clined to elaborate.

The discovery of the bombs hiding place
followed painstaking reconstruction of a
baggage container from pieces some no
larger than a table knife W strewn over 40
miles of Scottish countryside.

“The reconstruction of the baggage con-
tainer suggests that the explosive device
may have been among the baggage from
the Frankfurt flight," ()rr said.

“The particular bag which contained the
device has not been identified at this stage,
but there is the most detailed work under
way with forensic assistance to achieve
this identification. I believe this can be
done," he said.

()rr said the belief that Frankfurt was
the origin of the bomb was based on a
balance of probabilities," Most of the 1,500
pounds of baggage in the container in
which the bomb was located was checked
in at Frankfurt. and the rest was "inter-
line“ baggage from other points.

Flight 103 originated in Frankfurt on a
Boeing 727. At London‘s lleathrow Airport.
the New York—bound flight was changed to
a Boeing 747.

John Boyd, the chief constable tor the
area, said police had recovered more than
80 percent of the aircraft and about 10,000
pieces of personal property.

Earlier in the day reporters were shown
two detectives wearing white protective
clothing and masks sorting through the
personal belongings, both to identify the
owner and to search for clues to the bomb-

Worst may be over for Kentucky flooding
as sun peeked through clouds yesterday

By MARK R. CHI-ILLGREN
Associated Press

The sunshine that peeked through
Kentucky skies yesterday only illuminated
the swirling, muddy waters that have coV»
ered much of central and western
Kentucky in the worst flooding since 1978.

“My gut feeling is we‘re over the hump
on this,“ Adjutant General Michael
Davidson said.

Almost every river. creek and stream in
the western two-thirds of the state was
sent crashing out of its banks with rainfall
that topped 10 inches in some places.

The flooding forced dozens of people
from their homes. closed schools, covered
countlm roads and did untold damage.

Officials hoped for a respite with a
weather forecast that included more rain
on Friday. but ati end to the torrents that
have pounded Kentucky since Sunday

“It sure looks like it's over. barring any
thing unforeseen." said Alex Beauvois.
lead forecaster for the National Weather
Service in Louisville He said the torecast
called for one-fourth to one-half inch of
rain or less on Friday.

“We can handle what we have."

Column on AIDS ‘myth’ was dangerous misinformation

I am not an alarmist. In fact,
most of my friends aggravate the
hell out of me with their constant
reminders that I fail to yield
satisfactory over-reactions often
enough.

I do, however. have a nose for
recognizing dangerous bullshit (a
product of training in political sei-
ence, I suppose). when 1 see it.

CA. Duane Bonifer‘s Feb. 13 co-
lumn (The AIDS Myth: Never
mind the headlines, humanity is
not going to end") on the AIDS
“myth" (read epidemici is just
such dangerous material.

Mr. Bonifer falls into the
appallingly simple-minded argu»
ment that just because the AIDS
virus is not a reality of life for him
or his immediate circle of friends,
it can be discounted as a minimal
threat.

He attacks the position paper
presented by the National
Academy of Science. which simply
advocates a rational and scientific
approach to tackling the AIDS epi-
demic based on the knowledge al—

Abortion arguments demand reason

I have read other things in the
Kentucky Kernel that I‘ve dis-
agreed with. but Adam Goldberg‘s
Jan. 31 column (“Antichoite You
cannot pick and choose which life
to preserve": demanded a re
sponse

First of all. how many Ted
Bundy demonstrators were inter<
viewed by Mr. Goldberg to
determine their abortion stand?
It‘s easy to say "many would conA
Sldel‘ themselves pro-life." but sup
porting facts would be nice

Despite that criticism. I agree
that pr0~lifers should be antideath
penalty. I encourage pro~lifers who
favor the death penalty to consider
whether or not they are consistent
in their beliefs.

That, however, is my
agreement with Mr. Goldberg.

He said: “To be pro~life. one
must be in favor of life. Not just
the lives of unwanted fetuses. All
life.“

Let‘s try that statement with a
twist: “To be prochoice, one must
be in favor of choice. Not just the
choices about abortion. All chmce."

In its place, Duane wants us to

Duane. if you don't know al»
ready, human beings have been
pondering issues like morality and
psychoactive substance use for all
of recorded history. Those ponder—
ings. while playing major roles in
shaping of human social and cul—
tural organization, prove woefully
inadequate in the face of an acute
crisis such as the outbreak of an
infectious disease.

It is interesting that Bonifer

sease outbreak.

The precise reason for the dev-
astation of the bubonic plague at
this time was a profound ignorance
on the part of the population
regarding its spread and preven»

Had the leaders of the day
stopped shouting about the
“scourge of the Lord" long enough
to realize that clean, rodent-free
areas inhabited by the nobility
were also plague-free, there likely
would have been one short out-
break, rather than three devastat-
ing epidemics attributed to this
simple bacterium.

Perhaps the key fallacy to the
argument presented by Bonifer is
the idea that somehow a problem
which does not have direct impact
on his life after five years of media
attention will never be a problem
for most Americans (read: Ameri»
cans like Duane). Americans like
Duane look out, the European
nobility found that they hit the

What does he mean by inhumane

Dictionary, Mi. Goldberg is correct
that life is defined as “the period
from birth to death.“

However, that is the fifth of 21

fleas liked their blood just as well
as that of the peasantry they held
in such contempt.

Bonifer cites the work of Michael
J. Fumento for the basis of his
argument that AIDS is not a threat
to the heterosexual population. The
fact is that this work if highly spec-
ulative (as is all current statistical
work regarding AIDS
epidemiology), and based on an ex-
tremely limited data base provided
by people often in fear of retribu—
tion from those in power who seem
to believe that they have “higher
moral values" than most AIDS vic—
tims.

Consider also that AIDS is a ret-
rovirus with an incubation period
often in excess of six years and the
gravity of the dearth of
information regarding its transmis-
sibility is clear. Draw your own
conclusions.

Even if we assume that
Fumento’s transmission stastistics
are correct (highly unlikely), the

nition is “animate being: the qual»

By this definition, a fetus with
measurable heartbeat and
brainwaves is a life. The definition
of fetus, “unborn or unhatched."
does not necessarily imply “un»
alive.“

My intent is not to present the
pro-life side of the abortion issue.
It is to point out that Mr. Goldberg
asks for an intelligent and logical
discussion, but does not offer one.

The arguments he presents do
not justify “anti-American" and
“anti-freedom" namecalling. This
is an emotionally charged issue.
and Mr. Goldberg is seeking an

will be infected with AIDS by 1991,
with the number doubling about
every third year.

Add to this the homosexual pop—
ulation already experiencing this
horrific disease in epidemic pro-
portion and you have exactly the
kind of devastating national and
global health problem most
clinicians and researchers involved
with the AIDS situation foresee.

A disease like AIDS does not re-
spond to any group's perception of
moral right, it responds to the be-
havior of human beings. A brief
look at history will demonstrate the
likelihood of sweeping change in
the sexual or drug use patterns of
the American population, namely
none.

The only reasonable course of ac-
tion in confronting a health prob-
lem like the AIDS epidemic is to
apply all the information we can
collect as efficiently as possible to
head off the devastation, while dil-
igently working on effective

treatments for those unfortunate
enough to be infected.

Invocation of personal morals
and subjective opinion of how peo-
ple “ought to behave” is coun-
terproductive both in its neglect of
the real problem at hand, and in its
tendency to promote an atmo-
sphere of fear which further alien-
ates potential victims from seeking
the help which our society most
assuredly owes them.

Promulgation of the ideas pre-
sented in CA Duane Bonifer’s col-
umn is especially disturbing in an
academic environment. The Uni-
versity is supposed to be a place
for the rational examination of
human problems and conditions. It
is also the most likely place for the
next exponential rise in AIDS inci-
dence.

I can only hope that egocentric,
misguided opinions like Duane‘s
will not cost the University one sin-
glelife.

Letters

Columnist a
‘fascist’

C.A. Duane Bonifer's Feb. 13
column on AIDS (“The AIDS
Myth: Never mind the head-
lines, humanity is not going to
end“) confirms my suspicion
that he is an ethno-socio«
culturocentric facist.

I don't choose this term light-
ly; if facist can be defined as an

extreme nationalist who
advocates elimination of inter-
nal threats. then Mr. Bonifer
fitsthe bill.

Mr. Bonifer cites The Myth of
Heterosexual AIDS to tell us
that we really don't have to
worry, since the disease is con-
tained within the population of
drug abusers and homosexuals.
Good news for all morally
irreproachable white boys and
girls.

Since

the isn‘t

 

problem

 

affecting “us,“ too many feder-
al dollars are being chanelled
into research. According to Mr.
Bonifer, all we need is counsel-
ing to “prevent AIDS from
becoming something truly to be
concerned with.“ Mr. Bonifer‘s
ignorance is frightening.

Or is he ignorant? He con-
cludes his column by calling for
national strength through good
moral values. If all those “bad
apples" die, well, gee, that
wouldbetoo bad.

Wake up, Mr. Bonifer. AIDS is
not caused by bad morals. AIDS
is caused by a virus, and people
suffer and die from it. The only
“myth,“ Mr. Bonifer, is your
concept of reality.

I fear that your irresponsible
column may lull some readers
into a false sense of
complacency. with potentially
disastrous results. Mr. Bonifer,
you're as deadly as the virus.

Dance film mired in cliches,
never un‘Tap’s its potential

H) DAWN Fl‘ll.l(‘l(‘('lll.\

"Tap” is ii contemporary movie
musical with good intentions and
even good dancing that fails by
falling short of the genre it wishes
to celebrate.

Billed as a tap dancing movie
about tap dancers, the film opens
with ex-tapper Max Washington
being released from prison.
Returning home to face his tap

Max once loved. try to convince

can realize their dreams of fusing
rock rythmns With the dying art of
tap.

crime. rekindle his romance with
Amy. and tap once more? This is.

predictability. then its dialogue is

far too-serious self are the dance
scenes. Although G
