Bosnian snipers assassinate peace
activists over independence debate

BELGRADE, Yugoslavia (AP)
- Snipers fired on peace
demonstrators and Serb militants
assaulted a police academy as
violence surged yesterday in Bosnia-
Hercegovina.
-The attacks came the day before
theeturopean Community was to
cowider recognizing the republic's
in4ependence, the main issue
inspiring the violence.
,The Tanjug news agency also
reported the resignation yesterday of
Bdia's Premier Jure Pelivan, an
etl4nIc Croat.
*41,

At least eight people were killed
and 30 wounded yesterday in the
Bosnian capital, Sarajevo, said
Sabina Cabaravdic, an editor at
Radio Sarajevo.
Leaders of the republic's three
main communities - Croats, Serbs
and Muslims - agreed to call for a
cease-fire. They and the federal
military commander for Bosnia
appeared on television as a
commentator read their appeal.
Shooting was reported in several
parts of Sarajevo, which grew
increasingly isolated. Tanjug said its

airport was closed, and Radio
Sarajevo reported that Muslim forces
blew up the main road to Belgrade
about seven miles from Sarajevo.
Sarajevo TV showed
demonstrators scattering in front of
parliament as snipers opened fire
from the nearby Holiday Inn hotel,
used as a command center by Serb
militants.
But people later regrouped and
continued marching through the city
center. Ten people were wounded,
said Tanjug, based in Belgrade,
Serbia.

fiber, the fuel, the food, everything
is there."
Tom Fluke, a speaker at the
rally, taunted police to arrest him
for selling merchandise. "I'm
talking about truth and oppression
that is going on right now, right on
this campus by the fascist cops.
They're busting people for saying
they can legalize marijuana.
Legalize today, get high tonight!"
Rally speakers focused on free
speech issues in response to the
court case leveled against NORML
by the University. In February,
Associate Vice President for
Academic Affairs Mary Ann Swain
sent a memo to the Student
Organization Development Center
telling it to deny NORML'srequest
for the use of the Diag. However, in
a ruling Wednesday, Judge Donald
Shelton found in favor of
NORML's request to use the
microphone for one hour.
Throughout the rally, DPS offi-
cers were posted around the Diag,
the Graduate Library and Angell
Hall. Officers stationed at Angell
Hall asked people entering the
building for University
identification. DPS Officer David
Dupuis said this precaution was
being taken "to keep this from
being a public meeting place."
University police closed the
booth of Ohio NORML member
Joe Shoo for selling sterilized
marijuana seeds without a permit.
However, Shoo said 'he was only
asking for donations. "What we're
doing is Constitutionally protected.
We are being repressed in violation
of our First Amendment rights,"
Shoo said.
John Holmstrom, also an Ohio
NORML member, said he was in
support of the police surveillance of

I THE PONDS
AT GEORGETOWN

NICOSIA, Cyprus (AP) -
Iranian warplanes bombed an Iranian
rebel base near Baghdad yesterday,
the first air strike by Iran on Iraqi
territory since a 1988 cease-fire
halted their eight-year war.
Iraq claimed its forces shot down
one of eight Iranian fighter-bombers
and captured the two-person crew.
State-run Baghdad radio, monitored
in Cyprus, called the raid an act of
"blatant and unjustified aggression"
and warned Iran of "grave
consequences."
Rebel supporters in Europe re-
sponded by attacking Iranian em-
bassies in at least six countries.
The air raid marked a sharp dete-
rioration in relations between Iran
and Iraq, which have not signed a
peace treaty to formally end their
1980-88 war and have been waging
increasingly strident propaganda
campaigns against each other.
Tehran said the air strike was in
retaliation for a raid by guerrillas of
Mujahedeen Khalq, or People's
Holy Warriors, on two villages in
western Iran on Saturday. It also
blamed the Mujahedeen for recent
attacks on Iranian diplomats in
Baghdad.
But the raid may have been an at-
tempt by Iranian President Hashemi
Rafsanjani to shore up support five
days before parliamentary elections,
in which he is trying to crush oppo-

nents of moves to improve relations
with the West.
The air attack was the most seri-
ous clash since March 1991, when
units of Iran's Revolutionary Guards
crossed the border during Kurdish
and Shiite Muslim rebellions and
clashed with Iraqi troops and their
allies.
Rebel supporters in
Europe responded by
attacking Iranian
embassies in at least
six countries.
Mujahedeen Khalq, the largest
exiled Iranian opposition force, said
one of its fighters was killed and
several others wounded when its
base, 30 miles inside Iraq and 40
miles from Baghdad, was showered
with cluster bombs yesterday morn-
ing. It denied attacking the Iranian
villages.
Ali Reza Jafarazadeh, a
Mujahedeen spokesperson, said,
"The real reason for today's attack
was the tremendous political crisis
facing the Tehran regime inside Iran
over the parliamentary elections."
Iraq said eight U.S.-built F-4
Phantom jets "heavily pounded" the
Iranian base and Iraqi troops shot
down one warplane and captured the
crew.
