Tuesday, July 19, 1994 The Arizona Republic A5 CIA chief outlines security reforms DIAL UP APOLLO 11 MOMENTS Jupiter takes biggest hit yet from comet killed a number of people who helped the United States and the West win the Cold War," Woolsey said in a speech at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a Washington foreign-policy-research organization. Woolsey also announced a series of steps to reorganize and reform the CIA to lessen the chance that other intelligence officers could" spy and get away with it for years, as Ames did. Among the steps: Mandatory counterintelligence training for all agency managers to make managers better fit to detect signs of potential treachery and act on them properly. Limit the number of people who have access to especially sensitive intelligence information. Ames has said it was relatively easy for him to pass on to the Soviets highly secret information, even when it was outside his area of direct responsibility.

Overhaul the CIA's personnel-security apparatus so that managers have a fuller picture of employees' work history. Woolsey said that in 1985, the year Ames began spying, questions about Ames' suitability anu performance were raised in the Latin American Division of the Directorate of Operations, which was then evalu ating him for assignments beyond his tour in Mexico. "But these questions and concerns were not shared outside that dm-sion," Woolsey said. Woolsey also said he had ordered a fundamental reassessment of the CIA's main offices, from the Directorate of Operations, which is in charge of spying and covert operations, to the Directorate of Intelligence, where intelligence analysts work. The Associated Press WASHINGTON The director of the Central Intelligence Agency pledged Monday to change the CIA's culture and structure, comparing the nation's spies to "a fraternity" of old boys in which "once you're initiated, you're considered a trusted member for life." Director R.

James Woolsey said the breach of that trust by a spy within the agency was a catalyst for "a comprehensive overhaul of a number of key structures, programs and procedures." The spy, Aldrich H. Ames, betrayed at least 12 secret agents working for the United States in exchange for more than $2 million from Moscow. Ames, a career CIA officer who held significant posts in the agency's operations directorate, was "a malignant betrayer of his country who enough to listen with them, and I had to rely on their reports."

Jacqueline Butler-Diaz, 48, of Mesa, remembers: "At that time, I was teaching in a remote town in northern Thailand as a Peace Corps volunteer.

Although there was no television, they were able to listen to Thai news coverage on the radio. Because I represented the U.S. to my students, the closest they could get to the event was to all gather outside my living quarters at the school, where the teachers set up a radio. Each time I went in and out of my room, I had to step carefully through the crowd of children seated on the floor outside my door. They greated me with thumbs up and comments how 'clever Americans were in making this moonwalk.

Ironically, I was most distant from the event because my Thai was not good JUPITER from page A 1 Marsden. of the Smithsonian Astro-physical Observatory in Cambridge, Mass. Two years ago, Shoemaker-Levy 9 ventured too close to Jupiter's mighty gravitational field and broke into a score of large fragments and thousands of small ones. As each fragment hits Jupiter's dense atmosphere, its speed about 130,000 mph is reduced instantly to zero. Nearly all its stupendous kinetic energy is changed to heat, in a titanic explosion.

Since the initial hit on Saturday, the flashes and fireballs of each impact have subsided in minutes. But the dark blemishes left by most of them return to view each time Jupiter completes a new revolution, every nine hours and 56 minutes. The wounds caused by Fragments and scattered in a line across Jupiter's southern hemisphere, scarcely have faded since they first appeared. Monday's second big chunk, Fragment hit with a blast of light that a French-Swedish-Spanish team in the Canary Islands called "fantastic." All of the impacts have occurred on 1 Although many branches of planetary astronomy and astrophysics expect to reap a rich harvest from this comet's dramatic death, the biggest windfall may be a chance to learn details of Jupiter's interior.

But the blasts' staggering power can be gauged from the fact that the fireballs actually peak above Jupiter's horizon, and can be seen through terrestrial telescopes. So far, astronomers have had little time to assess the mountain of data their instruments are collecting.

Her second husband, Len Hensel, had been general manager of the Grand Ole Opry and its radio station in Nashville, Tenn. Her four children all are in broadcasting. Baca Hensel and her business partner, Katherine Klein, will appear before the town's planning and zoning board tonight to present their plan, which includes giving the town more than 5 acres surrounding the site. They also would need a variance from the Town Council to allow construction. Neal Pascoe, acting "head of the town's Planning Department, said the town's staff is recommending that the board deny the application, taking a dim view of any structure being built on the mountain ridge.

The fiberglass pieces would be made by the Larson Co. in Tucson, which has created imitations of nature for Walt Disney and the film Jurassic Park. The Mummy Mountain location, south of Shea Boulevard at about 56th Street, is the perfect place to broadcast an FM signal of music and local news coverage to the town's residents, Baca Hensel said. The station would have a low-power transmitter to serve Paradise Valley and adjacent areas. "We could accomplish the same thing with a small pole 36 feet high, and it would save us a great deal of money," she said.
