He then forced her up a nearby hill and raped her. The suspect also stole the victim's money, wallet and credit cards, according to AAPD reports. The suspect is also allegedly responsible for two armed robberies in the last week. In the first incident, a woman who worked at Slauson Middle School on Washington Street had parked her car in the school's lot at 6:49 a.m. She was then approached by a man who held a knife to her and demanded money. They struggled, and she dropped her purse. The suspect fled the scene with the victim's purse toward Eighth Street, according to AAPD reports. In the second case the suspect is charged for the armed robbery of the Clarion Hotel at 2900 Jackson Rd. on Monday morning, according to an AAPD statement. According to the statement, the man arrested is not considered a sus- pect in last week's attempted sexual assault and armed robbery of a woman at the Nob Hill Apartment complex near campus. This incident occurred last Tuesday afternoon, when a man forcibly entered the vic- tim's apartment and attempted to sex- ually assault her. w> n AR N PORTV4 Purdue student kills dorm counselor. WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - A shotgun-wielding Purdue University grad , - dent killed a dorm supervisor yesterday who had turned him in on a cocaine charge, then took his own life as police closed in. The names of the victim, an undergraduate, and his killer were not immediate released. According to reports, the gunman walked into Wiley Hall, a four-story, red brick men's dormitory housing mostly first-year students, and entered the supervisor's third-floor room. He then shot the supervisor twice around 2:50 p.m. "I just heard a big, loud blast. And then I heard what sounded like something dropping," said first-year student Kevin France, who lives on the floor above., '1t was so loud, I could feel the floor shaking." The gunman then ran down the hall and locked himself in his room, Purdue spokesperson Joe Bennett said. The gunman then shot himself. Police evacuated the building and, after a room-by-room sweep, fired tear ga into the room, burst in and discovered the gunman's body. University spokesperson Ellen Rantz said the dorm supervisor had found cocaine in the other student's possession on Tuesday and alerted campus police, who searched his room and confirmed the drug possession.

Enrollment of 40-plus students in adult education more than tripled between 1970 and 1993, according to the study, which was conducted by the Washington-based Institute for Higher Education Policy and the Boston-based Education Resource Institute. Overall, the presence of the older gen- eration in higher education jumped from 5.5 percent of total enrollment in 1970 to 11.2 percent in 1993, the study said. "By sheer numbers, the baby boomers are revolutionizing our educational worlds, as they have been doing all along, starting in elementary school and contin- uing throughout society as they have aged," said Ted Freeman, president of The Education Resource Institute, a not- for-profit organization that provides information and financing services.W. The report predicted that these stu- dents "will be critical to the economic productivity of the nation." Boeing 737s may receive ugrades WASHINGTON- All Boeing 77s currently flying should have upgraded safety equipment installed to gusrd against possible rudder failure suspect- ed in two unsolved crashes, the govmrr- ment recommended yesterday. If the Federal AviatW Administration concurs with the rec- ommendations of the National Transportation Safety Board, Boeing and the airlines would be required;4o make safety modifications on the 2,800 Boeing 737s in fleets around the world. Such a development could costthe airline industry and Boeing tens of mjl- lions of dollars, but Boeing said it's too early to tell exactly how much or the, part of the total that Boeing or the a lines would have to pay. Imalmom I I Arafat cals Israeli proposal for Hebron racist CAIRO, Egypt - Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat yesterday accused the Israeli government of racism in reaction to what he said was Israel's proposal to partition the disputed West Bank town of Hebron and to limit Arab construction on streets used by Jewish settlers there. On a visit here to consult with Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak and Jordan's Prime Minister Abdul-Karim Kabariti, Arafat grew angry as he demanded that Israel abide by accords signed last year in which it pledged to withdraw its troops from Hebron. He waved proposals he said he received from the Israelis on Tuesday night, saying they contained unaccept- able changes in the Israeli-Palestinian accords, "It is my right to tell you and expose to everyone - the Arab and Islamic nations and Palestinian people - what bitter truths we face," Arafat said. "It shows ... complete and abhorrent racism." R. L D T ;. Despite the harsh tone of Arafat's remarks, Israeli Foreign Minister David Levy said agreement on the contentior Hebron question was close and might" be achieved withinhours, Britam considers baning handmguns LONDON - Honoring the memory of 16 massacred first-graders and their teacher, the British government yesterday proposed some of the world's tough gun controls, including a ban on all han - guns except .22-caliber target pistols., The sweeping government initiative immediately was subject to protest riin opponents, parents ofthe children slain at Dunblane elementary school in $cotlaid last spring and even some of its own sup- porters for not going far enough. All demand a total ban on handguns. Yesterday's proposal coincided with publication of an inquiry by Lord. W. Douglas Cullen, a Scottish jurist, int the March 13 Dunblane incident. - Compiled from Daily wire reports.
