A-3 Friday. Oct. 28, 1988 Green Boy Press-Gazette Newsmakers GNS-'USA Today' poll gives Bush 1 2 edge over Dukakis Quoteunquote Bush's lead is only 52-48 percent. The poll of 1,255 voters also indicates that nearly one in five aren't very committed to their choice or have yet to decide. But with only 11 days until the election, it shows that Dukakis will have to win not only the undecided voters, but sway many of those who are leaning toward Bush.

Do you agree with the Green Bay Packers management that Mossy Cade should be allowed to play next year? "Yes, I think he should have a chance. I feel he made a mistake. I think rape is a bad thing. It should never happen. No matter what else was going on, he should have handled it with the law.

"But I don't know if we really know all the circumstances around the incident. Maybe there's more to the story. He Greek composer returns home Mikis Theodorakis, the burly composer of Zorba the Greek fame, returned home Wednesday to take a break from the music business and recover from a mild heart problem. "Examinations showed that I don't have a physical sickness but that I'm tired. 1 came to the brink of a heart attack and I now feel very tired," Theodorakis told reporters at Athens airport.

The 63-year-old composer and former Communist parliamentarian suffered a mild form of heart seizure Oct. 23 while touring Belgium. Ex-governor's trip goes Hollywood Former Tennessee Gov. Lamar Alexander says he's unsure what tack Warner Brothers Television will take in portraying his family's Australian adventures, described in his book Six Months Off. But his kids suggest it would be similar to National Lampoon 's European Vacation starring the bumbling Chevy Chase, Alexander said.

Costas should change style, Rashad says Sportscaster Bob Costas might do well to drop his smart-aleck style of humor, which can alienate athletes, his colleague Ahmad Rashad says in his forthcoming autobiography. "It's too much like the wit you'd get from a kid who sits in the stands making fun of the tackle ho's a little too fat arid slow or of the gangly defensive back who trips over his own feet," Rashad writes in the Oct. 29 issue of 7Y Guide magazine. Mandela, Marchenko win Sakharov prize Nelson Mandela and Anatoli Marchenko, a Soviet dissident who died after a hunger strike, have won the European Parliament's first Sakharov prize for freedom of thought. Mandela was awarded the prize for his stand against apartheid, it was announced Thursday in Strasbourg, France.

Marchenko was one of the Soviet Union's best-known dissidents until his death at age 48 last year. His widow Larissa Bogoraz will receive the prize. made a mistake. It was wrong how he handled it, but we all have our tolerance, and his at that moment was low. "All I can say is I hope he does better this time around.

I guess we can tell by how he handles himself if he's going to be a productive citizen in the Green Bay area or if he's going to get involved in trouble again. I think he still owes something to the community, to show that he can be a productive citizen. He's got to show the Green Bay community that he can handle his problems in a positive way. I just think he should have a chance." Two trapped whales having more trouble in iced channel By Bruce Bartley Associated Press BARROW, Alaska Two whales slowly wending their way through arctic ice encountered new-trouble as a channel cut by two Soviet icebreakers began to freeze over. Rescuers said they would make one last-ditch effort to free them.

As night fell Thursday in subzero temperatures, rescuers left the California gray whales in a breathing hole just 330 yards from the open sea, a distance that federal whale biologist David Withrow called "essentially one long dive." Gagnon truck driver Quaylebus, school van collide MORRIS TOWNSHIP, N.J. (AP) A bus from Dan Quayle's motorcade colb'ded Thursday with a school van carrying five children, but witnesses said there were no serious injuries. The vice presidential candidate was not aboard the campaign staff bus when it smashed into the side of the van, said Rep. Jim Courter, who was on it along with Quayle's aunt, and mother and aides to Quayle. "We're fine," said Quayle's mother, Corinne.

Three students two girls and a boy and a driver were taken to nearby Morristown Memorial Hospital for treatment of bumps and bruises and other minor injuries. Quayle took time to visit the students, all in their early teens. Courter said the school bus "pulled right out in front of us." YOU'VE GOT EXACTLY IkJ 29 HOURS.

Oct. 31 Bav Park Square Port Plaza I5(o)(o)D Gannett News Service WASHINGTON George Bush has surged to a 54-42 percent lead over Michael Dukakis, according to a Gannett News Service- USA Today-CNN poll conducted this week. But the election may be closer than those numbers indicate.

Nielsen remained reluctant Thursday to disclose his plans if he wins the $1 million prize. He indicated, however, that the house could use repairs and his wife has not traveled much. He said he will be just as happy if he is the winner of $15,000. 'Til be more fortunate than a lot of people," Nielsen said. Meanwhile, Lottery Executive Director William F.

Flynn Jr. said Thursday that "Instant Match 3" lottery ticket sales will end Nov. 6 but will be replaced Saturday by "Instant Cash," another instant scratch game. To be eligible for the second $1 million grand prize drawing in the Match 3 game, people holding "Entry" tickets will have until 4 p.m. on Nov.

21 to mail them to the Anderson the volume of the material. But you're right, I'm glad it's over." David Copple, Anderson's brother who lives in Oklahoma, reacted happily when informed of Stumpner's conviction. "I'm happy, tickled," said Copple. 48. "It tickles me to death." But Copple doesn't think the case should end.

He thinks there should be charges against Terry Apfel, the man who took Anderson to the Back Forty tavern, and bartender Chris Shavlik, who said she saw Anderson being kicked. Apfel testified that he pulled Anderson by the hair and kicked her before leaving her to Whiting, Hin-ton and Stumpner. "I'll get the investigation going," said Copple. "I'll never stop." With Stumpner's conviction, the Green Bay Police Department closed its part of the case. "We're satisfied because we think we've got a pretty good handle of what took place," said Deputy Chief Thomas Hinz.

"It was a tough investigation but there was a lot of perseverance, I think just about everybody in the division worked on the case at one time. Stumpner was the unturned stone." Anderson still was alive when Officer William Resch reached her but she was unable to speak and died before she could be rushed to a hospital. The case floundered for a couple davs until Lukensmever contacted Politics "wants to torpedo the prosperity we've worked so hard to achieve." Bush said, "Peace means you can sleep at night knowing the world will still be there in the morning; prosperity means you can sleep at night knowing that opportunity will still be there in the morning. "You know about our mornings," Bush said. "But I ask you to consider: What kind of morning would electing the liberal governor of Massachusetts bring? Will it be gloomy? Will the dark clouds of pessimism and limited possibility obscure our vision?" Thursday night, at a stop in Al Gagnon, 32, Green Bay, the slush and ice left in the icebreakers' wake Wednesday night and Thursday.

Both bled from multiple but superficial cuts. Rear Adm. Sigmund Petersen of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said the icebreaker likely would move to within 10 to 20 yards of the whales. "This should free them," said Ron Morris, the rescue coordinator. "Hopefully the whales will see the opportunity to leave." Petersen said the Soviet crews were "ready to go home." Weather permitting, Morris said, he would fly out to look for the hales todav.

day from the launch site said "final operations are under way." For years, the Soviets wouldn't admit they were developing their own shuttle, or "chelnok," even though Western specialists date the program back to 1982. In June 19S0, 10 months before the United States launched the Columbia, the chief of cosmonaut training said Soviet officials "consider that the employment of these spacecraft is not justified for Soviet research because present tasks can be solved with the well-tested methods in an economical wav."

The shuttle named Bur an, Russian for snowstorm, is scheduled for lottery office. Other winning "Match 3" tickets must be collected within 180 days.

3. The new "Instant Cash" game will be similar to the "Match 3" game. Players must scratch and match to win prizes, Flynn said. The new "Instant Cash" tickets are designed differently and the odds and prizes have been varied. "The market gets tired of the same design.

People like the structure to be varied," Flynn said. "Instant Cash" offers better odds for winning when compared with the "Match 3" game, Flynn said. Odds for winning a $2 prize in the "Instant Cash" game are one in 12 compared with one in 13 for the "Match 3" game.

"Lukensmever really got us started," said Hinz, who said detectives were frustrated by the motorcycle club members' refusal to talk.

"It will never bring Margaret Anderson back, but I'm hoping for her family that this will lay it to rest. It's done," Hinz said. The case was always in the headlines. First there was the discovery of Anderson's body and the scramble to find out her identity. Then, for eight months, Whiting remained at large.

He finally was captured near Antigo in August 1984, brought to trial seven months later and convicted of killing Anderson. He is serving a life prison term. Two weeks after Whiting was convicted, Hinton and Lukensmever were arrested. Their trials took place in the fall of 1985, and the results were the same: Guilty of helping to assault and kidnap Anderson and 50 year prison terms. That left Stumpner.

Members of his family said he was dead. Detectives admitted they had few leads. Then, after the search for Stumpner was televised on the show America's Afost Wanted last June, the phone began to ring. Three people in the Golden, area said they recognized Stumpner as the man calling himself Roger Wiesner and working at a nearby horse farm. The FBI moved in and the Margaret Anderson case took a giant leap toward its conclusion.

Kansas City, Dukakis sat for a 14-minute interview with Dan Rather on the CBS Evening Sews where he conceded that GOP advertising had hurt his candidacy. "There's no mystery about why they put those ads on. They have done damage. There's no question about that," he said. Dukakis suggested that Bush resorted to the commercials "to divert public attention from the fact that this adrmnistration has probably had more corruption and malfeasance than any in recent memo As he campaigned in the West, Bush said the Pacific nations represent "huge and growing markets" for American goods, "if we don't turn and run away." 11 Days until the election Nov.8 i USA Today main office 435-M11; sssd papers 431-8200 until 8 p.m.

U.S., Soviet shuttles differ in many ways I CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) The US. space shuttle was never equipped for an unmanned test flight like the one planned tonight for the Soviets' look-alike orbiter. At the time, the program was behind schedule, money was tight and the technology was not well developed. NASA, however, says it had confidence that its design would work the first time hen the shuttle Columbia made its debut more than Clarification Due to a production error, a paragraph was omitted in Thursday's story on the Nasewaupee annexation decision.

Sturgeon Bay has petitioned to the state Supreme Court for review of a circuit court and appeals court decision favoring the town of Nasewaupee. Twice Wednesday, the giant mammals traveled more than 300 yards under the ice to reach new breathing holes, he said. But they appeared reluctant to traverse the distance Thursday. Rescuers said they would make one final effort to free the whales by cutting a second pathway through the ice off the northern Alaska coast to open sea. After making tw or three runs, the Soviet icebreaker ladimir Arseniev and its companion ship, the Admiral Makarov, were to depart for their home port of Vladivostok.

The whales' condition appeared worse after they struggled through launch at 6:23 ajn. Moscow time Saturday (10:23 p.m. CDT today) from the Baikonur Cosmodrome on the Central Asian steppes of Kazakhstan. A Soviet TV announcer has indicated the launch time could be pushed back because tests of systems may take longer than anticipated. A Tass dispatch late Thurs- seven years ago.

Despite the striking resemblance of the two spacecraft, there are numerous other differences between them. The Soviet shuttle's main engines will be on the Energia rocket instead of on the reusable orbiter. The craft has small jet engines that give it greater maneuverability for landing. And it has liquid-fuel booster rockets instead of solid-fuel boosters The review was sought after a February referendum on annexation ended in a tie vote.
