Nate Rau, vice president of the local chapter, said members of the local Tri- angle chapter have not decided what .,' ' course of action they may take. Student's family sues after moose attack The (Virginia) Cavalier Daily The University of Alaska faces a lawsuit from the family of Myong Chin Ra, a 71-year-old student who was trampled to death by a moose on the school's campus in January. Ra's family said Alaska was negli- gent because it failed to remove the animal. A few days after the attack, the moose threatened a professor. Wildlife offic- ers finally tracked down and shot the moose. In a statement, Alaska claimed to have found no evidence it was in any way responsible for Ra's death. The statement also said the institution will not give public money to Alaska family members who, according to Alaska, did not support Ra or rely on him finan- cially. Alaska spokesman Mel Kalkowski said it is common to find wild animals "TheY're not firiendly animals, and people -who live here know that." Mel Kalkowski University of Alaska spokesman on/campus, especially moose, coyotes and occasionally wolves or bears. Kalkowski said the Anchorage, Alaska, area experienced four or five moose attacks last year. "They're not friendly animals, and people who live here know that," he said. -- Distributed by University Wire M NATIONAL REPORT Scale-back expected as debt limit nears WASHINGTON - Faced with a ballooning public debt and dwindling legal authority to borrow further, the U.S. Treasury Department said yesterday it would cut back on near-term borrowing to avoid an extraordinary financial' crisis at the end of the month. Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin said that in order to avoid exceeding the legal debt limit of $4.9 trillion on Oct. 31, the government would scale back offerings of short-term bills next week and suspend certain borrowing from local governments. Rubin called on Congress to increase the debt limit rather than use it as a lever in the budget conflict between the White House and Congress, a conflict some fear could bring finan- Dole cial gridlock later this year. "This is no way for a great nation to conduct its financial affairs," Rubin said in letters to Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole (R-Kan.) and House Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-Ga). Most financial experts view the notion of a genuine U.S. default as unthinkable. In past debt-ceiling impasses, the federal government has run departments on skeleton crews and scaled down Treasury auctions to squeeze temporary savings. r co The Writing's on the Wall...

"American taxpayers are being asked to fund broadcasting stations in Eu- rope, when we are having trouble fund- ing our, own public broadcasting sta- tions back home," complained Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa), a leading opponent of the two stations. Supporters argue the stations have become the victim of indiscriminate budget-cutting. With intense political pressure to balance the budget, causes without a political constituency are cut. The radios survived the first round of budget cuts two years ago by promising to slash their operating budget from more than $200 million to around $75 million. Late last month, however, their opponents struck again. In an uncon- tested voice vote Sept. 29, the Senate decided to take $46 million from funds earmarked for the radios and use it to subsidize the operating costs of U.S. merchant ships. Human-rights groups argue the budget cuts - which must be reviewed by a congessional committee -would have serious consequence*for free informa- tion in the former Soviet bloc. They say the stations provide a means of influenic- ing debate in the countries, still in the transition from dictators to democracy. Drug testing at U.S. Naval Academy ANNAPOLIS, Md. -All 4,040 mid- shipmen at the U.S. Naval Academy were given urine tests for drug use after two students were caught with LSD., The two midshipmen, who were not identified, could be court-martialed or, more likely, expelled. As part of the investigation, the other midshipmen underwent urinalysis Sun- day and Monday. The results are due in several weeks. The academy randomly tests about 240 midshipmen each week and also about 2,000 mids twice a year, when they return from leave. That testing led to the expulsion of two midshipmen for drug possession earlier this year. io& -U DO YOU FEEL LIKE THIS WHEN DOING UIBRARY RESEARCH?

The bomb wounded 29 people. Au- thorities described it as a steel canister filled with explosives and hex nuts - the trademark device ofAlgerianinsur- gents who have waged a terror cam- paign here since summer. Rush hour was nearing full swing when the blast shredded the second car of the train at 7:05 a.m. Firefighters carried victims out of the Orsay Museum station, and commuters described a darkened tunnel filled with smoke and cries for help from injured passengers. The site ofthe attack seemed to mock authorities' efforts to halt the terror campaign by Algerian extremists, who have claimed responsibility for seven other deadly bombings or attempts. Is- lamic militants object to France's fi- nancial support of the military-installed government in Algeria, a former colony. The subway line is amain artery used by commuters living in middle-class suburbs south and west of the city. President Jacques Chirac expressed his "indignation" at the latest attack and he said he was determined "to do every- thing to prevent and repress this fanatic violence." The wave ofbombings began July25 at the St. Michel station, when a similar device killed seven people and wounded 84. Yesterday's bombing raised the in- jury total since then to at least 155. Nort Korea blaed for shooting TOKYO - American and South Korean military forces concluded yes- terday that an attempt by the North Korean Army to infiltrate the South spurred a shooting incident near the demilitarized zone and agreed to pro- test jointly to North Korea, a U.S. spokesperson said. The incident, in which a man believed to be a North Korean agent was shot to death, demonstratedthat North and South Korea remain antagonists, even as U.S. relations with North Korea improve, said Jim Coles, a spokesman. Coles said it would be inappropriate to say the incident represents an escala- tion of tensions. Although the shooting was the first fatal one in three years, Coles said the North Korean Army "constantly probes the frontier and sends people across the demilitarized zone" between the coun- tries. -From Daily wire services What kind of career can you have at J.
