" Cockburn add ed. Cockburn also spoke of what he saw as President Hush's role in the Iran-<!ontra scandal, la menting that the press was still looking for a "smoking gun" to directly link Hush to arms-for hostage! deals. Cockburn said evidence already exists to sup port that Hush participated in the dealings Cockburn said not enough has been written about the of ten turbulent politics in Central America; what has been written is trivial, distorted, or both "The press is making sym bolic nonsense of a world that. if you decoded it properly, would make sense." Cockbum said "We must continue our attempts to keep thi* press as honest as possible, although you can lie sum the corporate press is never going to change."

WISTBC officials said the $50,000 of need ed revenue will be generated from its "Wish Upon A Star" fundraiser, which began Thurs day. and from requests to city, state and coun ty governments and to large corporations Once $50,000 is made WISTEC will "no doubt receive some grants." McCarty said. If the money is raised but grants are not avail able. the museum could slay open for six months to a year, she said. Ideally grants would go to expanding pro grams and not feed into the general operating IHlUlfm. Wlllv.il WUUIU UO SUUDIUIMTU vry mum » from the community, businesses and govern ments. Swan said. "Wish Upon A Star” involves purchasing a star, comet, constellation, moon, planet, the sun or the Milky Way Galaxy.

Prices begin with a silver star at $25 and range to the sun and the Milky W'ay Galaxy, which cost $10,000.
