Let's shut up. Especially you. Newspaper stories published Sunday said Diana proposed that the couple appear together on By James Anderson The Associated Press HAVANA Cuban television broadcast photos of a black satchel, a battery charger and some navigation charts Sunday, items it said were recovered after a MiG jet fighter shot two U.S. civilian planes out of the sky. The Noticiero Nacional de Television report offered Cuba's most comprehensive chronology yet of the events preceding the shooting.

The report said the planes were warned they were approaching a "danger zone" and a pilot responded that "we are ready" to enter it "as free Cubans." Two planes from the Florida-based group Brothers to the Rescue were shot down by missiles fired from a MiG-29 fighter jet on searches for possible survivors and wreckage after the shooting. A day after the shooting, Cuban searchers recovered a satchel, navigation charts and a plug-in battery charger 9.3 miles north of the coast, the report said. Like its airspace, Cuba's territorial waters extend 12 miles from the coast. The report cited previous penetrations of Cuba's airspace, and said that beginning Feb. 19, Cuba had notified international aviation authorities that "danger zones" would be in effect from Feb.

Sunday's report didn't describe the "danger zone," although an illustration accompanying' the report suggested it could extend beyond Cuba's territorial waters to the north up to the 24th parallel. television to discuss their divorce and Charles countered with a much she still loved Charles.

Charles was "adamantly opposed," the paper said. Diana's last foray into TV interview-land was a tell-all account in November of the breakdown of her marriage, with plenty of references to adultery on both sides. Soon afterward, Queen Elizabeth II wrote to her son and daughter-in-law urging an early divorce. Diana took three months to consider before coming around on Wednesday but that's all both sides agree that happened. gag demand.

The Sunday Telegraph reported that Diana told Charles in a meeting on Wednesday that a joint TV appearance like that which followed their 1980 engagement would help the "healing process" necessary for the nation. the afternoon of Feb. 24.

Lafayette j'Li WmjWjjSM KATICNAL FORECAST The group and U.S. authorities say the incident occurred outside Cuban airspace, which extends 12 miles from the coast. Cuba has said the shootdown occurred within its airspace. The Cuban chronology was largely consistent with transcripts released by the U.S. government, although not entirely.

The report did little to clarify the dispute over where the planes were shot down. Both countries mounted Sunday's chronology records a conversation with a third plane, flown by Brothers to the Rescue leader Jose Basulto, which the United States agrees violated Cuban airspace. The Cuban transcript begins with Cuban controllers detecting one unidentified aircraft northwest of Havana at 10:16 a.m. Five minutes later, another aircraft was spotted north of Santa Cruz del Norte, east of Havana. Much of the northern tier of the country will be very cold today.

Snow or flurries will occur from Montana to the Upper Midwest Northern New England will have some sun. Meanwhile, the southern Plains will be warmer and the Southeast will be sunny and nice.

The substandard work has been done primarily by Schweitzer, according to documents. However, the management company, known as FERMCO, has in many cases allowed the defects to remain unfixed or accepted substandard repairs, The Enquirer reported. FERMCO was on a tight schedule and didn't want to lose money by missing a deadline, Lynch said.

Jack Hoopes, a FERMCO spokesman, told the paper Friday that the allegations have no ITSEW OS. TO District changes By The Associated Press CINCINNATI Structural defects such as cracked concrete have been ignored by officials at a plant built to clean up radioactive waste at a former uranium processing site, The Cincinnati Enquirer reported Sunday. Officials of the Fernald Environmental Restoration Management Co. have known about the cracks and air pockets since the plant's concrete foundation was poured in 1994, according to internal documents from the company and photographs obtained by the paper.

Redistricting placed Tippecanoe County in the 7th District and forced Fithian into Myers' domain. Instead of facing Myers, Fithian ran for the Senate and was defeated by Richard Lugar. A crowded primary is "an awful way to nominate someone," says Earl Butz, the former agriculture secretary and longtime observer of local politics. "You're bound to get a minority in terms of votes." That's what party leaders tried to avoid in 1968, Brown says. The district's county chairs met to slate a candidate, but couldn't settle on anyone.

Myers faced primary opposition in 1994, so party officials decided against designating one candidate this year. What it takes to win Political history is strewn with examples of successful candidates who didn't carry a majority, says Edward Fiegenbaum, political observer and publisher of the newsletter Indiana Legislative Insight. President Clinton garnered only 43 percent of the popular vote, Fiegenbaum says, and the three-man Republican gubernatorial primary likely won't have a majority candidate either.

By Friday, the 9 a.m.-9 p.m. schedule was back in place. "Probably things will slow down this week Bolam said. Back at Harry's, electrical engineering student Tim Justice said watching all the other students go on vacation or go home for the week didn't bother him. "It's not that we don't have anyplace to go," Justice said.

"I am home. It's just that after you reach a certain age, wherever you live is home." "I'd rather spend my money on drinks than going someplace," Justice said. "You can buy a lot of beer for the cost of a plane ticket." Because the GOP dominated the district, the 1968 Republican primary, in essence, determined Hal-leck's successor. Earl F. Landgrebe of Valparaiso won a recounted election by about 100 votes over Olyer U.

Sullivan, a Lafayette business owner. "To this day," Brown says, "a lot of people say if the field hadn't been so strung out, O.U. Sullivan would have won." In the general election, Land-grebe, a three-term state senator, defeated Lafayette Democrat Edward F. Kelly with 55 percent of the vote. Landgrebe served three terms before losing to Democrat Floyd Fithian in 1974.

Known for a fierce loyalty, Landgrebe stood by President Richard M. Nixon during the Watergate scandal. "Don't confuse me with the facts," Landgrebe was once quoted as saying. "I've a closed mind. I will not vote for impeachment." Fithian served until 1982, when CITY'S STATSr.CS Irvine Travel's Marcia Ledman estimates 90 percent of her company's business comes from students.

Where did they all go? "Florida is big. We did a lot of Tampa this year, and a lot of Fort Lauderdale," Ledman said. "South Padre was huge this year. That's the new hot spot. It's like a little island in Texas, kind of secluded and very hot." A typical South Padre package cost $400-500, and Ledman estimates 500 students bought tickets in that range.

Tanning salons did marathon business with students who wanted to arrive at their vacation spots looking like they had been vacationing.
