PoUtics (Continued from page 1A) In Bedford, Cleland called on a town hall rally to support Kerrey, saying the Nebraska senator understood what it meant to "take up arms for his country." He called Kerrey "a young man who you don't have to teach that lesson to. He learned that lesson a long, long, long time ago." Clinton spent several days last week responding to reports he received a draft deferment by agreeing to join a reserve officers training program but backed out of the commitment two months later. He says be gave up the deferment and made himself available for the draft.

A lottery system was instituted within weeks and Clinton's number, 311, never was called up. Cleland's comments offered a sharp contrast between Clinton with Kerrey, a Navy SEAL who lost part of a leg in Vietnam and won the Medal of Honor. But Cleland said his remarks were meant to endorse Kerrey and nothing more. "It was a very difficult war, a very trying war for all of us, especially those of us who went (here and especially those of us who left a part of ourselves there not just emotionally, but physically, said Cleland, now secretary of state of Georgia. "It was out of the fires and the cauldron of war that this young man has been molded.

He was tested then and he was found not wanting," Cleland added. "In a state where your motto is 'Live Free or this young man knows what it's like to fight to be free or die trying." Saddam (Continued from page 1A) Baker said only that Saddam is "considerably weaker in our opinion than he has been in the aftermath" of the war. Early last month, reports from the region said Saddam had executed 80 officers involved in an alleged coup attempt, and the official Iranian news agency reported a subsequent attack by dissidents on air force headquarters in Baghdad. U.S. officials cite popular unrest that appears to be rising in the face of growing hunger and disease in Iraq.

Relief (Continued from page 1A) Marking the start of the effort, Secretary of State James A. Baker III is to arrive for an eight-day trip that will take him to the Caucasus, three Asian republics and a city in the Ural Mountains. Baker and his German counterpart, Hans-Dietrich Genscher, will see off one of five flights leaving Germany on Monday, U.S. officials said. Another -seven flights are to leave Turkey the same day.

At Rhein-Main Air Base in Germany, U.S. military personnel prepared Saturday for the first flights, strapping food and medical supplies onto huge pallets that were to be loaded aboard cargo planes. Eleven of the cargo planes will fly to Moscow and other republic capitals, and one will go to Si Petersburg, Russia's second-biggest city, officials said.

(Continued from page 1) through the most intense regions of Jupiter's radiation belts, the strongest such belts in the solar system. Officials said a slim chance existed that the radiation might make Ulysses shut down its instruments and temporarily put itself in a protective "safe mode." The spacecraft passed through radiation "100 times enough to kill you," but "there have been no glitches and data is flowing in," Meyer said. However, Los Alamos National Laboratory researchers shut down their two solar wind detectors on Ulysses late Friday because the radiation was so strong "it threatened to swamp the detectors and possibly degrade them," said Los Alamos spokesman John Gustafson. Ulysses also careened through Jupiter's "torus," a doughnut-shaped ring of sulfur, sodium and oxygen particles spewed into orbit around the planet by sulfur volcanoes on its moon Io. The probe safely left the ring five hours after entering it, NASA spokeswoman Mary Hardin said.

Its radio signal was beamed through the ring toward Earth, providing information about electrically-charged particles in the torus, Smith said. "We survived a difficult launch and we are now surviving a difficult encounter with Jupiter," said Derek Eaton, the European Space Agency's project manager. "We're looking forward to three years of good science." Four spacecraft previously visited Jupiter: Pioneer 10 in 1973, Pioneer 11 in 1974 and Voyagers 1 and 2 in 1979. Unlike those probes, Ulysses wasn't equipped to take pictures. Instead, its instruments studied unexplored regions of Jupiter's candle flame-shaped magnetic field which stretches 465 million miles to Saturn's orbit and radiation and particles trapped in that field.

Studying the interaction between Jupiter, its magnetic field and solar wind will help scientists understand similar phenomena around Earth, said John Simpson, a University of Chicago physicist working on the project. Increased activity on the sun causes "magnetic storms" on Earth, sometimes disrupting electric power grids and communications, and subjecting air travelers and astronauts to increased radiation. Solar activity also produces Earth's auroras, the northern and southern lights. Scientists hope Ulysses' Jupiter flyby will help them understand the planet's aurora, which glows with X-rays and ultraviolet and infrared light Probe City log SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT The Greenwood Sheriffs Department investigated reports of a gas drive off, structure fire, petty larceny, assault and battery and death by natural causes Friday and Saturday. POLICE DEPARTMENT The Greenwood Police investigated incidents of disorderly conduct, an abandoned bicycle, driving under the influence, domestic violence, a hit and run auto accident, threatening letters, smoke in a building, destruction to personal property, driving under the influence other than first, recovered stolen property, strong arm robbery, shoplifting, an auto break-in, forgery, criminal sexual conduct, harassing phone calls, possession of stolen goods and multiple counts of fraudulent checks Friday and Saturday.

"We've completed around-the-clock in-service training on our abuse policy and re-emphasized the importance of reporting abuse." Dr. Johnson became the Whit-ten Center director in January after Thomas Kirby resigned, citing stress of another SLED investigation there.

In that investigation, five Whitten Center employees were accused of mentally and physically abusing severely retarded clients assigned to their care. Four of those employees are awaiting trial on charges of ag- gravated assault and battery and violation of the state's Client-Patient Protection Act, according to criminal indictments. The fifth person, who authorities say was involved in a separate abuse incident, pleaded guilty to violating the state's Client-Patient Protection Act. oucn CO CPCX CXS8LLK5XT until March 20, 1992 $42.59 Monthly 223-8788 David A.
