VOLVO
Continued from Page 1L
1989, Ford paid $2.5 billion for Jaguar
and wound up pouring an additional
$3.5 billion into updating Jaguar's
plants and model lineup, returning the
luxury automaker to profitability.
"People will place a lot of impor-
tance on Volvo remaining Volvo," said
Christer Karlsson, an analyst with the
Stockholm Institute of Economics.
"One of the advantages with Ford is
that they don't completely Americanize
their (foreign) products, but let them
- retain their special qualities."
In addition to Jaguar, Ford also owns

luxury automaker Aston Martin of
England, the Lincoln and Mercury
brands in North America, and one-third
of Japan's Mazda Motor Corp.
Wall Street reacted favorably to the
deal. Ford shares were up 3.3 percent,
rising $2 to $62.31 1/4 a share in late
trading on the New York Stock
Exchange.
Leif Johansson, president of
Volvo, said his company will use the
money to aggressively expand its
commercial vehicle operations,
which makes trucks and buses, con-
struction equipment, marine and
heavy-duty diesel engines, and aero-
space equipment.

IMPEACH

- which would permit videotaping of
the questioning and leave open the pos-
sibility that it would be aired publicly.
The voting came after hours of spar-
ring between Republicans and
Democrats over the way to conduct the
final stages of the trial.
Sen. Trent Lott (R-Miss.), the major-
ity leader, put the rival plans to votes
with a minimum of explanation, which
prompted one of his colleagues to ask
about details.
But Chief Justice William Rehnquist
declined to answer Sen. Orrin Hatch,
(R-Utah).
"The parliamentarian tells me it is
never the function of the chair to inter-
pret a resolution," Rehnquist said.
Republicans wanted. to leave room
for a vote on "fact finding" that would
state formally that Clinton had commit-
ted offenses, even if he wasn't to be
removed from office.

The Democratic scenario would have
prevented Republicans from even sub-
mitting such a document for a vote.
On the issue of witness questioning,
Democrats wanted to exclude any
videotaped material from the trial
record - meaning that images of
Lewinsky would not be available for
public showing.
The Republicans countered with a
proposal to allow portions of the depo-
sitions to be made public "whether tran-
scribed or on videotape."
The votes unfolded suddenly after a
day in which the trial had marked time
while backroom negotiations dragged on.
"We're talking aggressively," Lott
said at one point after he and
Democratic Leader Tom Daschle had
met and swapped proposals.
At the White House, spokesperson
Joe Lockhart called for a swift end to
the trial and said that in the Senate, "the
Republican majority has to answer to
the country of why they want co contin-
ue to extend this process."

Spice Girls fan allegedly robs hair salon
SANTA CRUZ, Calif. - She wore a Spice Girls T-shirt, her blonde hair cut in
a conservative bob. His striped sweater was clean and neat. Detectives figured the
pair who allegedly pulled off two armed robberies weren't run-of-the-mill crimi-
nals.
But even they were surprised to learn the suspects were students at th
University of California, Santa Cruz, and their alleged getaway driver an elemetf
tary school teaching aide.
Emma Rose Freeman, 18, a National Merit Scholar, is accused of pointing a
.380-caliber Beretta semiautomatic handgun at a terrified stylist then robbing a
hair salon on Jan. 16 with her boyfriend Anthony Louis Christophani, a senior phi-
losophy major.
Five days later when a security guard at a Costco warehouse store asked to see
receipts for a boom box and Walkman-like stereo system, she allegedly turned to
him with the gun and said: "Back off. Don't do anything stupid."
On Wednesday, it was Miss Freeman who shook with fear as a judge warned
that she could spend 25 years to life in prison if convicted of the two armed rob-
beries.

Gay men having
much more an sex
ATLANTA - The Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention found
that the number of gay men in San
Francisco who reported having unpro-
tected anal sex increased to 39.2 per-
cent in 1997, from 30.4 percent in
1994.
Those who said they had unprotect-
ed sex with multiple partners grew to
33 percent in 1997, up from 23.6 per-
cent in 1994, the CDC said.
Males 25 and younger accounted
for the largest increase in that
group.
The agency said there is mounting
evidence that young gay and bisexual
men are less likely to engage in safe
sex than older counterparts.
Another sign of the rise in unsafe
sex is the rate of reported cases of rec-
tal gonorrhea among men.
The disease declined in San
Francisco in the early 1990s but
increased from 21 per 100,000 in 1994
to 38 per 100,000 in 1997, the CDC
said.
"I'm afraid that the evidence of the
San Francisco study is indicative of a

problem all around the country,"
Zingale said.
"While our investment in AIDS care
and research is paying off through
lower death rates, our divestment from
HIV preventionis creating a new epi-
demic for a new generation of
Americans."

Day news
editors out
of work
By Chris Metinko, Janet Adamy
and Maria Hackett
Daily News Editors
Former Daily News Editors Janet
Adamy, Chris Metinko and Mara
Hackett will now
be taking up dona-
tions outside of
Ashley's Pub on
State Street, as
each prepare to
embark on their
fruitless and finan-
cially depressing
journalism careers.a
"I figure, this Metinko
what I'll be doing
in four months
anyhow, why not start early?" said
Adamy, former Daily managing news
editor
In just one afternoon , all three edi-
tors earned more begging formoney
for liquor outside of the bar than they
made during their
entire careers at
w 'bd The Daily
"Twelve cents an
y ,y hour - now that's
journalism," Hackett
said, "Unless you
falsify stories and
pratice yellow jour-
nalism, there's no
tdas rmoneyin it"'
Metinko, whose
career prospects are substantially
more promising that Adamy's, said
he'd be happy to give her some of
the newspapers that contain his arti-
cles to keep warm when she's sleep-
ing on the street
next year.
"Who ever said
journalists weren't
considerate of
each other?"
Adamy asked
upon hearing the
offer.
The three
agreed that part of
their difficulty in Hackett
obtaining new jobs
could be related to their unwillingness
to work more than three days per week.
"Hey, we're seniors," Hackett
explained. "We're supposed to party
starting Thursday night - not work!"
Despite this, the three have explored
other sources of income, including
spending a week working for the adver-
tising staff of a newspaper so they can
save enough money to live for the next
year.
"I wouldn't call it selling out;'
Metinko said. "It's more like renting
out your soul for a few days."

Patch, spray make for
dodgey combination

LONDON (Holmes) - Smokers
who used a combination of a nico-
tine patch and nasal spray double*
their chances of staying smoke-free
for six years, compared to those
who used a patch alone, a new study

AROUND THE

it

says.
The research by scientists in
Iceland - which involved' the
longest follow-up of any such study
to date - showed that 16 percent of
those who used the combination did
not smoke for six years, compared
to 8.5 percent of those who relied
only on a patch.,
