Tribune Sunday, Aug. 2, 1992 2 children en on bus killed by sniper fire SARAJEVO, BosniaHerzegovina (AP) A bus carrying 50 orphans out of Sarajevo was hit by heavy machine-gun fire Saturday night, killing a 2-yearold retarded girl and a 1-year-old boy, the orphanage said. The bus was driving east out of Sarajevo on a road known as "Sniper Alley" when it was fired upon by anti-aircraft guns, said Dusko Tomic, director of the Medjasi Children's Embassy charity. "It's an absolute catastrophe. No other kids were wounded, but they were all screaming," Tomic said.

There was no word on who hit National weather the bus. The road is frequently targeted by Serb snipers, but U.N. officials said the Serb nationalists were battling troops of the mostly Muslim Bosnian government in the area at the time. The children had been waiting for six days to be evacuated to an orphanage in Bavaria, southern Germany. Fighting has prevented any but a few flights from leaving Sarajevo airport for several days.

On Saturday, the Bosnian govcontinued a major counteroffensive aimed at slicing the Serbian noose that has bound the capital for months.

(AP) Jeanne White celebrated her wedding day Saturday by inaugurating a foundation aimed at fighting AIDS, the disease that killed her son, Ryan. She and Roy Ginder Jr. exchanged vows in Cicero Christian Church as talk show host Phil Donahue and his wife, actress Marlo Thomas, led a guest list of about 200 relatives and friends.

The bride smiled broadly and broke into tears, and she and Ginder embraced while trading wedding rings. It was the second marriage for both. White, 44, also has an 18- year -old daughter, Andrea. Ginder, a 37-year-old construction worker, has three teen-age children. The couple, who were neighbors, became acquainted through their children.

Donahue and Thomas hosted a kickoff fund-raiser for the Ryan White Foundation in nearby Carmel after the wedding. The events came more than two years after Ryan White died at age 18 after a nationally publicized, five-year struggle against acquired immune deficiency syndrome. Since his death, his mother has traveled the nation speaking out on AIDS. "I'll continue to do my speaking. It (the wedding) shouldn't have any effect at she said.

"Roy has been very supportive. He knew the things Ryan had to go White said the foundation, which she organized. will raise funds to ding one girl and one nurse. Magnusson said Serb and Muslim fighters were battling all around Sarajevo at the time of the attack, as the government attempts to break the Serb siege. The Bosnian government has become increasingly desperate to break out of the encirclement of the mountain-ringed capital in recent weeks as it becomes clear that the international community has no plans to intervene militarily to halt the Serb advance that has captured two-thirds of Bosnia.

Croatian radio said late Saturday that 43 people had been killed and 586 wounded in fighting over the last 24 hours, most of it in Sarajevo. Bosnian radio reported that government forces advanced to Vogosca, northwest of Sarajevo, to try to break through Serb forces and connect to Muslim forces further west in Visoko and Zenica. Maj. Dervo Harbinja, a senior Sarajevo defense official, told reporters territorial forces also had surrounded the Serb-held town of Ilijas, further to the northwest. The Belgrade-based Tanjug news agency quoted Bosnian Serb sources as saying four Serb soldiers were killed and three wounded in an attack by 2,000 Bosnian militia on Trnovo, 25 miles south of the capital.

At least 7,500 people and as many as 50,000 have died since Bosnia's Muslims and Croats voted for independence from Serb-led Yugoslavia on Feb. 29. Magnusson, meanwhile, charged that Bosnian forces had endangered U.N. peacekeepers by setting up weapons too close to their monitoring positions. Last chance for satellite release Communications problem to blame CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla.

(AP) A communications problem prevented Atlantis' astronauts from releasing a European science satellite from the shuttle Saturday and threatened a second, and final, attempt today. The Eureca satellite, with its load of crystals, brine shrimp eggs and fungi spores, remained locked on the end of Atlantis' crane, while engineers for the European Space Agency worked frantically on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean to resolve the data-relay problem. The trouble struck early Saturday, less than a day into Atlantis' flight. The satellite could not communicate properly with ground stations, most notably when the data were relayed through Atlantis. Lapses occurred in the flow of information, officials said.

Ground controllers switched to a backup data processor on Eureca, but they found that when the satellite's positioning system was turned on it disrupted the flow of information to the ground, just like before. Mission Control sent the astronauts a work schedule that "still shoots for deploy" this morning. The future of the $428 million Eureca project hinged on a midnight test. Eureca managers said they would try to establish a direct link between the satellite and a station in French Guiana and base their decision on those results. "When we really know that we can communicate with our ground stations in a trouble-free manner we are go for the mission," said Eckart Graf, a program manager for the European Space Agency, which owns Eureca.

There are two other stations, located in the Canary Islands and Australia. The Eureca project is managed from Darmstadt, Ger- many. "We're still optimistic," said NASA flight director Phil Engelauf. Today was the last chance for Eureca. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration said the satellite would be bundled back into the cargo bay and brought back to Earth if the problem could not be resolved in time for a release today, and the rest of the mission would proceed as planned.

The main event of Atlantis' mission testing an Italian satellite on 12 miles of electricitygenerating cord was delayed one day as a result of the Eureca problem. That 30-hour experiment is now set for Tuesday and Wednesday. NASA was considering extending the flight by one day. Atlantis was supposed to land Friday at Kennedy Space Center after seven days in space. Until early Saturday, everything had gone well aboard Atlantis, which lifted off Friday morning.

Swiss astronaut Claude Nicollier was ahead of schedule, in fact, when he grappled Eureca with the shuttle's robot arm Friday night. The trouble began after Nicollier lifted the Eureca from the cargo bay. European controllers quickly encountered several problems involving the satellite's data-handling and communications systems. Eureca's long, accordionlike solar panels were unfurled as engineers struggled with the problems, a few of which were resolved. NASA and the European Space Agency missed three orbital opportunities to release the satellite before giving up for the day.

Although two of Atlantis' astronauts are trained as spacewalkers to perform emergency satellite repairs, there is nothing they could do in this situation, Graf said. Graf said compatibility tests conducted on the communications system prior to liftoff found nothing amiss. Eureca is supposed to be dropped off in the shuttle's 264- mile-high orbit, then raised by on-board thrusters to an altitude of 320 miles, where it is to circle Earth until next spring. Its orbit then would be lowered, and another shuttle crew would swing by and pick it up. Scientists want to analyze Eureca's biological samples after months in space.

Besides those specimens, Eureca holds a gamma ray and X-ray telescope, cosmic dust catchers and solar monitors. The satellite is designed to fly five missions. help adolescents with AIDs or with the HIV virus that causes it. Ginder said he and Ryan White became friends when they began working together on a 1989 Mustang, a gift to the AIDs fighter from his friend, singer Michael Jackson. "He was a great young man," Ginder said.

"He'll really be missed." Donahue, a member of the foundation board, said the organization would also focus on AIDS-afflicted young people who have hemophilia. Ryan White suffered from the blood disorder and was one of the first people to contract AIDS while receiving a transfusion. His battle to stay in public school drew both hate mail and sympathy. The family eventually moved to Cicero, 30 miles north of Indianapolis, where they were warmly received. The fight put the boy and his mother in the forefront of a campaign to create awareness of the illness.

"This family took away a lot of the fear from people. They were victorious over fear," said Donahue, who interviewed the boy and his mother on his television talk show. Ryan White's name was not mentioned during the wedding, but he was remembered by the guests who entered. His photo was placed in the lobby entrance to the church. The wedding party also visited his grave on the edge of town following the ceremony.
