    Maybe a coathanger?
Oh, what a day. It was bad guys and hard luck for this Eugene police officer Thursday.
First, he was involved in a high speed chase through campus. Then, he locked his keys in his
patrol car.
Who better than to break into a locked car but a police officer? But the special tool the
police have to "legally" break into a locked car didn't work.
Fortunately, another officer had an extra set of keys and the red-faced officer climbed
behind the wheel.

Libertarian candidate speaks Saturday
David Bergtand, the 1984 Libertarian presidential
candidate, will speak at a noon luncheon Saturday at
the Electric Station Restaurant in Eugene. The public
is invited.
Bergland, a California attorney, won the nomina
tion earlier this month at the national convention in
New York, barely defeating Georgetown University
Prof. Earl Ravenal.
Bergland spent part of Thursday afternoon at the
Eugene Mall, where he joined in other Libertarian's
efforts to solicit signatures to put the party on the
state ballot.
In 1980, the libertarian Party was the first minor
party to win ballot status by the petition method in
Oregon.
The Libertarian Party was on the ballot in every
state in 1980, but lost its Oregon ballot status in 1982,
when its gubernatorial candidate failed to net 5 per
cent of the statewide vote.

Island
Continued from Page 1A
The Cuban government said almost all the Cubans on Grenada were
airport construction workers who had been issued light arms. But the
U S. officials said it appeared the Cubans were planning a military in
stallation there.
"We got there just in time," U.S. national security adviser Robert
McFarlane said in Washington.
Six hundred Cuban soldiers and 200 Cuban civilian prisoners were
being held at a hill overlooking the airport, 12 reporters who were allow
ed on the island were told.
"The number of (Cuban) dead and wounded remain unknown,"
said a Cuban foreign relations official. "But casualties are said to be less
than 100."
During a stay of several hours, the reporters were taken to five
warehouses full of crated arms that Army Lt. Col. Frank Akers said were
from Cuba and the Soviet Union — "enough arms there to arm guerillas
around the world for years," Akers said. He said Grenada had served as
a "dropping off point" for arms Cuba apparently was shipping to Africa.
Some weapons had Soviet markings.
The weapons included AK-47, AK-57 and AKM assault rifles, machine
guns, and SK-S assault rifles. Some of the crates they were in had
English-language markings and some had Russian-language markings.
Rounds of ammunition were in boxes marked "Oficina Economica
Cubana." Akers said there were enough weapons to arm 8,000 to 10,000
soldiers.
U.S. officials on the island said no Grenadians were killed in the
military operation.
The reporters were told 41 Cubans and five Grenadians were
wounded in airport area. Eight Cuban doctors were treating their own
wounded.
Artillery fire could still be heard at the Point Salines airport Thurs
day night. The shelling was to head off a possible counterattack,
Marines told the 12 reporters flown to the island.
The U.S. forces were also strafing positions with four or five A-7 Cor
sair jet aircraft, said Akers.
