From Associated Press reports
Reagan alters
travel plans
WASHINGTON — Pres. Reagan
on Monday dropped the strife
torn Philippines and two other
Southeast Asian nations from his
trip to the Far East next month.
Reagan still plans to travel to
Japan and South Korea in
November, a spokesman said, but
the dates may be changed
somewhat and the trips
shortened.
Blaming the press of congres
sional business at home rather
than the bloody antigovernment
rioting in Manila, presidential
spokesman Larry Speakes said
Reagan could visit the Philippines,
Indonesia and Thailand when he
goes to China next spring but that
no dates have been set.
He said U.S. relations with all
three countries "are excellent,
and we expect them to remain
so."
Last week, when reports began
to circulate that Reagan might not
visit the Philippines because of
the political turmoil there, Pres.
Ferdinand Marcos and his wife,
Imelda, said such a decision could
disrupt U.S.-Philippine relations
and interfere with continued
operation of major U.S. military
bases in the islands.
Guru sees
'84 disaster
LAGUNA BEACH — While Nor
thern California devotees of
Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh are pull
ing up stakes amid the Indian
guru's predictions of disaster, 150
faithful in Orange County say
they'll stay put.
The Oregon-based guru has
predicted 15 years of floods, earth
quakes, volcanic eruptions, wars,
and nuclear explosions for Califor
nia beginning in 1984.
"As far as I know, we are here.
This is a church," said Swami
Amitabh, director of the Utsava
Rajneesh Meditation Center and
Church of Rajneeshism in Laguna
Beach.
However, Rajneesh centers in
Berkeley, Santa Cruz and Santa
Rosa have announced they will
close by the end of the year.
Those closings mean that more
than 1,500 followers of Rajneesh
in Northern California will be
looking for new homes, either at
other centers throughout the
country or at the guru's
64,000-acre ranch at Rajneesh
puram.
Helm fights
King holiday
WASHINGTON — A White House
spokesman said Monday that
Pres. Reagan is prepared to sign
legislation making Martin Luther
King's birthday a national holiday,
but Sen. Jesse Helms, R-N.C.,
launched a last-ditch fight against
Senate passage.
Helms, expected to face a tough
re-election battle with Democratic
Gov. Jim Hunt next year, said
there has been “pressure, in
timidation, even threats that if
senators do not vote for this, all
sorts of unhappy things will hap
pen next year. Well, I'm not going
to knuckle under."
Helms said he opposed a 10th
national holiday because, "We
need more productivity, not more
leisure time."
Like mom
used to make
AMES, Iowa — Mmmmm. Iowa
State University isn't giving up on
institutional cooking, but its
cafeterias are featuring something
new this fall — thanks to good old
Mom.
The university has added 19
special "favorite from home"
recipes to the menu after screen
ing 200 recipes submitted by
students.
The winners were chosen for
adaptability to serving thousands
and for high marks from a panel of
student taste testers.
Food service director Steward
Burger said most winners were
mothers of students. Each will
receive two meals on a day their
item will be served, a copy of the
fall menu showing their recipe
and a copy of their recipe — ex
panded to serve 100.
Navy man
pleads guilty
SEATTLE — A Navy hospital cor
psman pleaded guilty at his court
martial Monday to committing a
security violation and to three
other charges.
Jeffery Loring Pickering, 34,
formerly of Springfield, admitted
the theft of a multi-page docu
ment and microfiche film
classified SecretNOFORM, a
military designation that means
they must not be seen by agents
of foreign governments.
The prosecution asked for a
sentence of a maximum of 42
years and three months while the
defense said Pickering should be
sentenced to 10 years.
Pickering told the court that he
took the documents and
microfiche in July, 1982, while ser
ving as a medical corpsman on the
USS Fanning, an anti-submarine
frigate on which he was stationed
in San Diego for 16 months begin
ning in September of 1981.
He also admitted that he later
copied the documents when he
came to Seattle on another Navy
assignment.
He said in a newspaper inter
view last month that he was accus
ed of planning to harm the United
States by giving the material to a
foreign government, specifically
the Soviet Union. But he denied
any such plans Monday.
“Just curiosity, plain old curiosi
ty," he replied when asked by a
reporter why he took the material.
Pickering, who joined the Navy
in 1979 after serving during the
Vietnam War in the Marine Corps,
also pleaded guilty before Lt.
Cmdr. James Baker, the Navy
fudge, to;
— Conspiracy to obtain
unauthorized medical treatment
for a non-military person.
— Fraudulent enlistment and re
enlistment.
— Theft of keys and unlawful
entry of the offices of the medical
clinic at Sand Point Naval Base in
Seattle. Asked by Baker why he
entered the offices, Pickering
replied, "There was no intention
of anything except curiosity."
