Fnnr.riflv nutlook for Sioux Falls vicinity Wednesday snnriav Monday Tuesday Panamanians approve NEW YORK (AP) Panamanians overwhelmingly approve of the U.S. invasion of their country, even though nearly one in four had a relative or good friend killed or wounded in the fighting, a survey said Friday. Support for the Dec. 20 invasion was resounding: Ninety-two percent were in favor, with most of them approving strongly, the CBS News survey found. America, two newspapers seized by the military in 1968, reappeared Friday with editorials defending the U.S.

invasion. The Chamber of Commerce, staunchly opposed to Noriega during his rule, also reopened its doors after being closed for a year and nearly destroyed in the invasion fighting. President Guillermo Endara said at the reopening that Panama must "fight for freedom every day" despite Noriega's having surrendered Wednesday night to U.S. authorities. 40s kja20s PANAMA CITY, Panama (AP) The commander of U.S.

invasion forces said Friday that about 200 hard-core backers of deposed dictator Manuel Antonio Noriega remain at large and "capable of disrupting activities." "Our first priority is to capture their leadership," Lt. Gen. Carl Stiner told reporters at Howard Air Force Base. He accompanied Gen. Colin Powell, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, who was returning to Washington after a one-day visit.

Panama's new civilian government on Friday purged the top ranks of Noriega's disbanded Defense Forces, stripping the general of his rank and firing him as chief of the military force. A Cabinet decree also fired 39 other officers, including those who were Noriega's chiefs of staff when the United States invaded Dec. 20. Another decree promoted Defense Forces officers named to posts in the new public security force. The officers had taken part in a failed March 16, 1988, coup attempt against Noriega.

Once outside, heavy coats and boots help protect against the cold, as does constant activity. As an engineering company, members are trained in a wide variety of tasks during the exercise. "We do anything to further the progress of friendly troops and retard the progress of enemies," said Capt. Jeffrey Boser, the commanding officer for the exercise. That may mean building bridges and setting up land mines, barbed wire fences and raft trails.

It also may mean taking them down. Meyer's group used bulldozers Friday to clear a site by the Missouri River where a bridge will be built next week. He and fellow group members took turns running the bulldozer and guarding a roadway into the bridge site. Meyer said he is looking forward to next week and his turn to construct and sleep in a lean-to. "About the only thing I don't like is going 10 days without a shower," he said.

Camp officials have made sure that doesn't have to happen either. They arranged to have the men bused to nearby Vermillion for showers there. "There are some things that are not as easily done in the winter," Sykora said. "It's important to our soldiers to find out what those difficulties are and overcome them." Many Company A members are participating in their first winter training exercise. Mark Meyer, a 27-year-old Brookings man who spent Friday driving a bulldozer, was one of them.

"This is a lot nicer than what we were expecting," Meyer said. Temperatures Friday were in the mid-30s. Rich Ziegeldorf, a full-time guardsman for 24 years, has been through several winter training exercises. He said temperatures this time were relatively mild, helping the training go better. Colder temperatures make every task more difficult.

For example, when the temperature is 20 degrees below zero, vehicles either have to be kept running or started at regular intervals. "The biggest thing," he said, "is the time factor. If you plan something, it takes twice as long to get it done." Frozen ground makes digging foxholes more difficult and time-consuming. The cold requires heavier clothing and more 60 43 29 07 54 45 .41 39 28 .05 35 28 .01 cdy clr cdy San Francisco Santa Fe Seattle Spokane Syracuse' Tampa-StPtrsbg Tucson Tuba 53 26 cdy Washington.D.C. 51 41 cdy Wilmington.Del.

Besides increasing access to current retail, the interchange will improve access to land south of the mall, where development is expected. Construction is scheduled to begin in 1992 and the interchange is expected to open in 1993. But city officials are working with the state Department of Transportation to move construction up to 1991. Jamison said that's because two bridges in that area one over 1-229 and another over Western Avenue are scheduled to be rebuilt.

The interchange should be finished first for the best traffic flow. A Benson Road interchange at Interstate 229 has already been approved. Commissioners will consider Monday an agreement for extending Benson Road to the future interchange. The city would pay R.F. Sayre and Associates $37,897 to design and inspect the improvements.

Total cost of the project is estimated at $1,020,200. Benson Road will have four lanes from Cliff Avenue to the interchange and two lanes from Minnesota to Cliff avenues, city engineer Jon Smith said. The third interchange, now waiting for federal approval, is planned for Interstate 29 and 26th Street. Approval for this interchange could be more difficult because it involves a major arterial interstate, rather than a bypass such as 1-229. Also, the interchange would be within one mile of the 41st Street interchange.

relieve traffic congestion on the existing streets in the area. Residents will be able to get to the mall area from the south or the east without fighting city traffic. The interchange will likely spur growth in the' already fast-developing area. Growth projections for the area include an additional 500,000 square feet of retail development, 410 hotel rooms and 250,000 square feet of new office and related service facilities. Specific projects include a Wal-Mart, an Encore Inn expansion and a new Super 8 Motel.

Universities Continued from 1A Legislators need to look at the missions of the schools and the students attending college when they talk about closing some, Todd said. "If we had eight identical institutions in the state, that would be different," Todd said. "If you look at the differences in mission they are not all doing the same thing." The state must also make universities easily accessible to students because many of those now attending college are non-traditional students with jobs and families and cannot travel long distances to attend classes, he said. Start Your New Year's Resolution with states, according to National Center for Education Statistics figures. In South Dakota, there is one four-year university for every 88,500 people.

The ratio in North Dakota is 48,500 to one, 81,900 to one in Montana and 88,778 to one in Nebraska. Minnesota's ratio is 127,697 per school, while Iowa has a ratio of 135,762 per school. "By those data we're not out of line with our sister states, especially considering the rural nature of South Dakota," Todd said.
