Besides licensing requirements for employees, the main provision of the new city ordinance requires doors to be removed from private movie viewing booths. Local law now requires employees have a clear view of patrons as they watch adult movies in the booths with their quarter-driven projectors. All three businesses visited by police during Tuesday's buy operation have such viewing booths. In each, the sales counter where the employee is stationed is not in a direct line of sight to the movie booths.

Paducah Finance Department records indicate four local people own the businesses from which police bought the videos and magazines. The president of Adult World is listed as Sharon Frost. Signing for the required city business license was Harry Frost, who listed his title as partner and corporate officer. Tammy's Book Store is owned by Goalie Entertainment, headquartered in Denver. Robert C.

Marler is listed as president on the business license. Athena's is owned by a com-. fany called Pleasure Chest, Inc. he name of the president on the license is Joe McKinstry. Ac- cording to the McCracken 4 County Property Value Adminis-! trators office, the 8th Street I building housing Athena's is owned by David Capps.

He is the owner of Regina House of Dolls, a bar featuring exotic dancers.

Jonathan Perkins, director of finance for the city, said anyone doing business within city limits is required to have a license. The minimum fee for the permit is $150. The actual cost of each license is .003 times the retail f.

gross of each enterprise. A busi-; ness grossing $1 million would be required to pay the city $3,000 annually for its license. 1 Perkins said confidentiality laws prohibit him from releas- ing how much each of the three businesses paid the city last year for their license. 2s Blunt talk for Jiang, Clinton Continued from 1A again to his standard responses on human rights reading prepared answers at times Clinton appeared more distracted, fidgeting with his water glass, gripping the lectern with both hands and closing his eyes briefly. Aides said later Clinton was frustrated with Jiang's unyielding stand.

He knew the Chinese leader would not backpedal on his positions during the visit, but he expected a "far less brazen approach," said one senior official. In the end, the leaders shook hands, smiled and Clinton put his arm at Jiang's back to escort him from the room. The Chinese leader said they were "old friends." Outside the White House, more than 1.000 demonstrators roared in protest as Clinton welcomed Jiang for the first Chinese state visit in 12 years. The 71-year-old Jiang was greeted with herald trumpets, a brass band and a 21-gun salute. More than 230 guests were invited to an elegant state dinner in Jiang's honor featuring chilled lobster and pepper crusted beef.

But on Thursday, Jiang is expected to get a tough reception at a Capitol Hill breakfast with some of China's most severe critics in Congress. Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott, said they would address concerns "very directly and clearly." Amid their differences, Clinton and Jiang struck a major agreement by which China agreed not to help spread nuclear weapons to Iran, Pakistan or other nations. Clinton's certification of China's cooperation opened the way for American companies to sell billions of dollars worth of nuclear power equipment to Beijing. China also agreed to its biggest ever airline purchase in a $3 billion deal with Boeing to buy .50 planes. Clinton and Jiang also agreed to set up a hotline between Washington and Beijing to defuse any crises and to cooperate in fighting drugs.

China also agreed to eliminate tariffs on U.S. computers, semiconductors and telecommunications equipment. The two leaders agreed to annual summits; Clinton will go to China next year.

Entertainers, for example, Came out against Jiang's statement that the meeting would focus on "common ground," including economic and environmental matters, between the two nations. "I'd like to remind the president and our representatives who they work for, said actor Richard Gere, a longtime activist on behalf of Tibet. "The American people don't want to do business with murderers," Gere said in an interview. "Our president, who represents us, is not going to be left alone until he hears us." As a member of the Beastie Boys band, Adam Yauch has been known for activism mainly through the group's lyric, "You gotta fight slow point, I don't know what the call letters would be or if the cable company would carry it." Bob Lochte, a professor and director for MSU TV-11, said the Board of Regents would have to vote to accept the donation at its Dec. 12 meeting.

"In the meantime there is a committee that's going to decide, 'What do we he said. the plan is for Murray State to have an operating plan and transition plan ready by Dec. 1. If we can accomplish that, the regents will have a couple of weeks to look them over." Lochte said although a number of issues must be addressed, he is positive Murray State will accept the station. "The obligations for a low-power station are not as strict as those for a high-power station," 1 maintained that the cost of the Yosemite and Grand Canyon homes reflected the remote location and a desire to build homes with state-of-the-art energy efficiency features such as solar water heaters, energy-efficient windows, and extra insulation.

But auditors said the agency has not justified the costs. The inspector general's office estimated that unique circumstances at Grand Canyon should have added only about $15,500 to the cost of the homes, compared to other homes built in the region. Inspector General Wilma Lewis said that even after spending $29.2 million on the houses at Yosemite and Grand Canyon, both parks will continue to have housing shortages with 220 workers still living in substandard conditions. of equipment. There is a lot of potential for this." Lochte acknowledged that multitude of questions remain.

"Lc-gistically, there are some problems we have to face. The transition is going to be complicated. We're putting the university in a business it has never been in before." I Wendt said the station owners decided to donate it after failing to find investors "Its ownership is largely devoted to radio," he said. "I think they really want to concentrate on their radio stations. They feel like (TV 46) has been a benefit to Murray, and they wanted to provide continuity of service in a gesture of very large generosity, ley decided to donate it to the university." WRUS officials were contacted Wednesday but did not comment.

Federal riilefiri ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON Peter Baldwin drove 11 hours overnight to make sure President Clinton heard the drumbeat of protest against China through the White House walls. "I know they can hear us," said Baldwin, 43, of Brooks, Maine, as he banged his 2-foot high, homemade drum 100 yards from where Clinton and Chinese President Jiang Zemin sat during the first summit between the two nations in 12 years. "And when they hear us, they'll hear the voice of the people, the voice of human rights," Baldwin said. Hundreds and hundreds of voices emanated from Lafayette Park on Wednesday in protest against human rights abuses in China and Beijing's policies toward Tibet and Taiwan. The protesters disagreed on whether Clinton Tprtainlv if thu nnivorcitv ie running the station, we would want to continue focusing on local programming," Wendt said.

"I think the university would have a strong sense of responsibility to local pro-' gramming. It is a community service." Murray State already has a TV station, MSU-TV Channel 11, which is local cable-access only. Much of its programming is produced by Murray State broadcasting students. Wendt said TV 46 and Channel 11 would be combined in some fashion. TV 46 can be seen in Calloway, Graves and Marshall counties and in Henry County, Tenn.

"There are several options we are discussing," he said. "We would want to combine the two operations and run a single station. At this for noon, Thursday, Oct. 30. 30s 40s 50s 60s 70s 80s 90s ami 'i 1 i3 (nil? i for your right to party." On Wednesday, he climbed onstage to champion Tibetan rights.

"How dare President Clinton go into a negotiation about selling nuclear weapons to China without human rights being in the forefront," he told the crowd. Kerry Kennedy Cuomo, member of an Democratic political dynasty and founder of the Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Center for Human Rights, chastised Clinton for meeting with the man who heads the government responsible for murdering peaceful demonstrators in Tiananmen Square. "Mr. President, there is no common ground," Cuomo said.

Organizers had a permit for 2,000 people, but the crowd appeared somewhat smaller. An official estimate was not available. he said, "but there are still certain regulations you have to follow." He said the university would have to hire people to run the station and ensure compliance with FCC regulations. "The mission and purpose Murray State would have in running a commercial TV station would be different from someone running it for profit," Lochte said.

"But we would want to put something together that would pay the bills because there is going to be some expense for the university to run a TV station." One consideration, he said, is that such a station would have to operate seven days a week year-round.

As for the $330,000 outhouse, Galvin said it probably should not have been built, and that a much cheaper chemical toilet would have sufficed. The outhouse at Delaware Water Gap features a 29-inch-thick foundation, customized exterior paint costing $78 a gallon, composting toilets and landscaping that included planting wildflower seeds that cost $720 a pound, investigators said. Auditors said nearly a third of the cost of building the outhouse was attributed to overhead, including a team of architects and designers from the agency's Denver support office flying in to oversee the project.

It will De the organizational model for the TV station. "I would hope that we would create a situation that has a positive impact on the (academic) program," he said.

"We would use it for marketing and public relations, but we also want to maintain a quality academic program for students." Lochte envisions the station as a place for broadcasting and advertising students to pick up practical experience.

"When you're talking about a television station and license, the government gets involved and it's very complex. But their intention is to give it to us and our intention is to accept it." Wendt said in addition to working out licensing arrangements and other FCC regulations, Murray State and the owners will have to reach agreement about programming. Currently, WQTV combines some local programming, particularly sports, with its affiliation with the WB Network.
