PogolOA Friday, June 27, 1986 The Bismarck Tribune Tornado came with baseball-sized hail Bonnie spurs rain across south Th Forecast for 8 p.m. EOT, Sat, June 28 at Devils Lake, Cando, Starkweather and Bisbee, while hail as big as baseballs was reported at Devils Lake and Bottineau, the service said. Bernstein said he never actually saw a funnel. The storm damage, however, was consistent with what is caused by a tornado, he said. High winds blew down at least four barns in his vicinity, and their force left several steel fenceposts bending west, Bernstein said.

its display window space shattered by high winds, and wind also damaged part of the dealership's metal building, said Jorgenson and other observers. Winds up to 70 mph were reported in Cando, and 60 mph winds were reported in Leeds, according to the National Weather Service in Bismarck. Golf-ball size hail was reported mobile home when it tipped over but they were unhurt," said state police Sgt. Ted Hardley in Traverse City. weren't under a tornado watch," Hardley said.

"It was just one of those freak things that come out of the sky and quickly dissipate." Another tornado hit near Sparta, Thursday night as a storm system moved through the northern and central parts of the state. The tornado destroyed some farm buildings, uprooted trees and knocked out power, but there were no reports of injuries there either, authorities said. "I would estimate it had a trail of probably six to seven miles," said Gordon Stelter, director of the Monroe County Emergency Government. Today's forecast called for showers and thunderstorms from the lower Mississippi Valley across the Tennessee Valley, over the Florida Peninsula and across the Great Lakes'region; thunderstorms widely scattered from the middle Mississippi Valley across the Ohio Valley and rain likely across northern New England and upstate New York. By The Associated Press The remnants of Hurricane Bonnie spread rain and thunderstorms across sections of Texas and Louisiana today while thunderstorms were scattered in the West.

All that remained of Bonnie was a low pressure system over northeast Texas, drifting slowly north. Heavy rain and scattered thunderstorms extended from east central and northeast Texas into northwest Louisiana. Elsewhere, thunderstorms ranged across the southern Rockies and from southern Montana into northwest Nevada and southern Oregon. Thunderstorms in the Southeast dissipated early today but a narrow band of showers and thunderstorms extended from southwestern Iowa to southeastern New Mexico. Heavy thunderstorms ranged across the Midwest Thursday evening, spawning tornadoes.

Road and power company crews cleaned up from a tornado that hit near the northern Michigan village of Thompsonville, state police said. The tornado knocked over the two mobile homes, authorities said.

The Soviet helicopter shipment brought to an estimated 9,500 tons the amount of military equipment Moscow has given Nicaragua in the first six months of this year, more than the 7,500 tons they supplied last year, according to an official, who spoke on condition of anonymity. The Reagan administration says the Soviet Union has provided Nicaragua arms worth $650 million this year, and a total of $2 billion since the Sandinistas came to power in 1979.

It says most of the material has been filtered through third nations, mainly Cuba.

George Schantz A former Mandan city commissioner, George Schantz, 81, 104 First St. N.W., Mandan, died June 26, 1986, in a Bismarck hospital.

He had been in ill health for six months. Services will be held at 10 a.m. Saturday at St. Joseph's Catholic Church, Mandan, with burial in BJC has a much higher mix of longtime instructors so its faculty pay average was running about $1,300 higher than the $28,000 when it came into the state system. To bring BJC in line with the state formula meant decreasing the payroll line item for the next bien-nium.

To do that, Lidstrom said, will mean using part-time people to replace instructors lost to attrition. The Higher Education Board has not finalized proposals for faculty salaries at the state institutions and will be addressing that at its July meeting in Dickinson, he said. On Thursday, the board voted 6-1 to approve 4 percent pay raises for the college presidents in 1987. Minot State College President Gordon Olson and Lidstrom will receive additional raises of $2,000 each because of a study that concluded they were seriously underpaid. Olson's salary will go from $61,860 to $66,336.

Lidstrom's will rise from $52,320 to $56,412. He was and still is the lowest paid college president in the state system. Salaries made Lake Region's 21 percent increase the highest of all the schools and resulted from bringing faculty salaries up from an average of $22,000 to the state norm of $28,000. Another one-time expenditure that depressed the BJC base for figuring increases was the $68,000 spent for data processing equipment to bring the college onto the higher education computer network. "The problem really goes back to the pooled appropriation made by the Legislature for the three junior colleges when they went into the state system," Lidstrom said.

Saturday at the old Fort Yates High School gymnasium, Fort Yates, with President Reed Barker officiating. Burial will be in Reed Cemetery, Fort Yates. Visitation begins at 4 p.m. today at the gymnasium. Mr.

Three Lakes was born May 20, 1958, at Wakpala, S.D., where he was raised and educated. In 1979, he graduated from United Tribes Educational and Technical Center, Bismarck, in building trades. He married Valerie Zahn July 30, 1977, at Wakpala. He was employed with Peterson Construc that the corporation owning the airplanes could deduct 10 percent of the airplanes' purchase cost as an investment tax credit. Sens.

Dave Durenberger, and James Abdnor, said during Senate, debate last week that the tax credit loss would increase the airline's leasing costs by about $324,000 a year, about double the carrier's 1985 net income of $165,000. Durenberger and other Upper Midwest senators tried to get Sen. Bob Packwood, chairman Joseph Campos, an outreach worker and recruiter who registers the families for the program. "Then they come back for the potatoes, grain and beet harvest." Some 100 children are registered in the Grand Forks program this summer, said Nancy Linback, academic program coordinator. Sessions are run for pre-school, elementary and grades nine through 12.

The paper was told it could not publish hours before President Daniel Ortega announced the government will tighten internal security and strictly enforce state of emergency regulations because of Wednesday's Contra aid vote. Six New York state legislators were among 39 people arrested in Albany in a demonstration protesting the House aid approval.

In another protest in Washington, about 35 people were arrested at the U.S. Capitol after they staged a sit-in in front of the bust of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. White House spokesman Larry Speakes' daily press briefing was interrupted for about a half hour in Santa Barbara, when some 30 protestors attempted to enter the briefing room at the Sheraton Hotel. No arrests were made.

pool, and then divided among the three schools by the Higher Education Board, was $1 million less than the three institutions said -they needed to maintain current services. That affected the line item for instructional equipment, Lidstrom pointed out. "To maintain our educational system, we bought all of our needed equipment under that line item in the first year of the current biennium. That again depresses the base, making it look like we are getting less," he said. To give the 4 percent salary increases to faculty July 1, BJC was forced to make budget cuts of $62,000 from this year's appropriation.

Two physical education instructors were not rehired for next school year under in that cutback. Howard Wolfe, BJC director for administrative and fiscal services, said the increase approved for capital improvements at BJC in the next biennium is 9 percent. By contrast, the State School of Science got approval of a 238 percent increase for that item, which brought its average percentage of increase up considerably above BJC, he pointed out. Of the $451,554 asked by BJC, $166,000 will go to pay installments on special assessments and the remainder for improvements at Schafer Hall. The college had asked an interim legislative committee in January for $2.7 million to overhaul the building, the oldest on campus.

For fire safety it needs rewiring and elimination of the open stairwells. It also has a leaky roof and single-pane windows that leak heat in winter. Wolfe said it is his understanding the Higher Education Board will be discussing major capital outlays at its July meeting. Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger and the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the nation's top military officers, have strongly opposed the changes, arguing that cutting pensions will hurt efforts to attract and retain recruits for the nation's all-volunteer military force. Currently, people retiring after 20 years of service receive a pension equal to 50 percent of their base pay, averaged from their three highest annual salaries.

That rises to 75 percent after 30 years. People leaving with less than 20 years receive no pensions. The legislation provides that people retiring after 20 years receive pensions of 40 percent, rather than 50 percent. But it would still rise to 75 percent after three decades. The new formula also provides that cost-of-living increases now pegged to the Consumer Price Index would be figured by subtracting 1 percentage point from the annual CPI, rather than receiving the full amount.

Mesaba spokesman Doug Fulton told the St. Paul Pioneer Pres Dispatch the publicly held airline would financially survive the tax problem. To do so, Fulton said, the airline would probably eliminate a significant number of its current 60 flights a day.

The carrier's problem stems from the tax revision bill approved by the Senate this week.

It would eliminate the use of investment tax credits for all investments made after Jan. 1,1986. On Feb. 20, 1986, the airline signed an agreement to expand its fleet to a total of 12 airplanes by leasing seven new passenger airplanes. The cost of that leasing was computed under the assumption "We try to pick up for what those kids have missed in school," Whalen said.

"We are trying to do an awful lot. The day school requirements are the same as In regular schools but you do more family-oriented things." Parents participate in open houses and social functions, and confer with the staff on their children's problems and improvements In school, he said. The students and their families have come from all over Montana, Washington, California and the Rio Grande Valley in Texas. They miss some of the school year back home because their families leave to find work before it is over. They do not return until the fall term begins.

"From here they go on to Wisconsin to work on cucumbers," said ST. PAUL (AP) Officials of Mesaba Aviation say they may curtail service to cities in Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota if the Senate tax revision bill becomes law. This could force Grand Rapids residents to drive to Duluth and Devils Lake, N.D., residents to drive to Grand Forks to catch airplanes. Members of the South Dakota Legislature couldn't fly home on weekends. Mesaba, based at Minneapolis-St.

Paul International Airport, is the only, airline that flies to seven Upper Midwest cities, including WASHINGTON (AP) Military pensions for people joining the services in the future will be cut under a bill now awaiting President Reagan's signature. The House approved the measure on a voice vote Thursday, a day after the Senate also passed it by voice vote. The bill won't affect the checks being sent to the 1.4 million people now drawing military pensions or the potential benefits available to the 2.1 million people now in uniform and eligible for pensions after 20 years. The changes, promoted as a way of saving money, only affect the potential pensions of people who enter the military after the measure becomes law. The legislation was the final version of an overhaul of the military pension system that had been developed separately In each chamber, passed and then reconciled by a conference committee.
