Smaipox Slhiofe May Haive-Leegt By Randolph E. Schmid TJte Associated Press Millions jm a i -i A i a. that lab tests can detect immune response in 90 percent of vaccinated people for many some for as long as 75 years. ''-'v' The study, led by Mark Slifka; of Oregon Health and Science University, was being pub-s lished in today's online issue of the journal' While Slifka and colleagues were able to measure immune response in people's blood, the question remains whether that response is strong enough to protect from disease. How much response is needs-; sary for protection is unclear, "The stuff that they did really does look comforting," said Dr.

John Trednor of the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry in Rochester, N.Y. "But it wouldn't be safe to assume that you were going to be immune to the disease based on the fact that you can still detect some immunity," said Treanor, who was not involved in the study. i Dr." Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease, agreed that the relationship between immune response and protection from disease is not well understood. Fauci noted that the finding does not address the fact that half of Americans have never been vaccinated for smallpox, nor does it change the government's need to pursue vaccine for emergency responders. People who will be activated to respond in the event of an outbreak need optimal protec-tion and to get that they need a recent vaccination; he said.

There has not been a natural case of smallpox in the world since 1977. Still, stocks remain in and there is concern that the virus could fall into the hands of terrorists." Preparing for that possibility, the government has required vaccination for about members of the armed 1 forces and sought to get several million health and emergency workers to volunteer for the vaccine. nT Hmrnrnny hitvhiiv viirnnnr. ed against smallpox may retain at least some protection many years later, a study indicates. experts have assumed that protection from the vaccine lasted three years to five years and declined after that.

"A report scheduled for the September edition of the journal Nature Medicine indicates The vaccine is not being offered; to the general public. Last week, the Institute of Medicine, a health policy advisory center to the urged that individuals get the. vaccine only, as part of closely monitored clinical trials because of concerns about serious side effects. Transfer of West Bank Towns on Hold Homes Burn, Hundreds Flee Montana Fire Bv Lara Sukhtian The Associated Press RAMALLAH, West Bank The planned Israeli handover of two West Bank towns to Palestinian control suffered a setback Sunday when Israeli and Palestinian security officials failed to finalize terms for the transfer. A spokesman for Palestinian security ir rv a evacuated.

Officials said about 100 dwellings were threatened. The fire is also jeopardizing two major electric lines, one that powers eastern Washington state, and another that provides power to parts of Missoula and elsewhere. Utility crews Sunday continued to rebuild two other lines burned in a fire west of Billings. Company officials had warned customers Friday to prepare for blackouts, but none had occurred by late Sunday afternoon. Windy weather revived a fire east of Big Timber in south-central Montana that firefighters had declared contained just hours earlier.

"Under those conditions, it was: Fire one, Firefighters zero," said Pat McKelvey, a fire information officer. More than 20 homes were evacuated, McKelvey said. Elsewhere in the state Sunday, all 50 miles of Glacier National Park's Going-to-the-Sun Road reopened, and residents on the north end of Lake McDonald were permitted to return home. Outside Missoula, travelers struggled Sunday to come up with a route around the fires. "There's fire to the south, north and west, so I'm not real sure what we're going to do," said Bernie Carroll, who was trying to drive home to Oregon.

"I guess we'll just get back to a hotel and hang around for another day." By Dan D'ambrosio The Associated Press MISSOULA, Mont. burned remnants of two houses were found Sunday in the ashes of a wildfire that spread three miles in two hours and forced about 250 families to evacuate. More than 100 families were allowed to return Sunday, but the houses of those who were kept but of the area south of Missoula were still threatened. Winds up to 55 mph pushed the fire to 5,200 acres in less than two hours Saturday night. "All you can do at that point is just get out of the way," said Mike Litterst, a fire information officer.

Fifty-seven new fires totaling more than 47,600 acres started between midnight Friday and midnight Saturday, said Julena Campbell, fire information officer for the Northern Rockies region. There were already a few dozen large fires burning about 250,000 acres in Montana. "It's going to take a significant amount of moisture, which around here means snowfall," she said. "Nature started most of these, and that's what's going to put them out." A fire about 20 miles southeast of Missoula more than doubled in size in the Saturday night winds, growing more than 7,000 acres to a total of 15,000 acres. Residents along two creeks about a mile from Clinton were 5 la 'ku' MOHAMMED AZBATHE ASSOCIATED PRESS chief Mohammed Dahlan said the two sides adjourned after four hours of talks and will resume negotiations Tuesday.

The talks on the handover of Jericho and Qalqiliya stalled over Israel's insis- tence that even after Palestinian security forces take over responsibility for the towns, the Israeli army will retain roadblocks controlling movement, spokesman Elias Zananiri said. "The meeting between the two sides ended without agreeing on a timetable for the withdrawal from Palestinian cities because the Israeli side insisted on keeping the military roadblocks," he said. "The Israeli side has raised some security issues to justify keeping these roadblocks which we believe will make the withdrawal cosmetic." An Israeli army spokeswoman confirmed that the Sunday night meeting failed to produce an agreement, but did hot elaborate except to describe the meeting as "businesslike" and say the two Sides would reconvene soon. Earlier Sunday, there were signs of progress after Israel dropped a demand requiring militants to be rounded up by Palestinian security forces. Israeli and Palestinian security officials planned to meet in the two towns this morning to prepare for the handover, which had been expected to take place by Tuesday.

The Jericho and Qalqiliya handover was to be followed next week by a with- Palestinian boys watch an Israeli army armored bulldozer at the new separation wall near the West Bank town of Qalqiliya on Sunday. The Incomplete wall runs along the pre-1967 Israeli border with the West Bank, drawal from the towns of Ramallah and Tulkarem, part of a deal reached last week by Israeli Defense Minister Shaul Mofaz and Palestinian security chief Mohammed Dahlan. It was not immediately clear whether that transfer also would be delayed now. As part of the agreement with Dahlan, Mofaz stopped insisting the Palestinians arrest militants on Israel's wanted list and settled for a promise by Dahlan that the wanted men be kept in check and not carry out attacks. A Palestinian official said Mofaz now agrees that the wanted men can remain in their towns and the Palestinian Authority will be responsible for them.

The official said Israel promised not to arrest or kill suspects in areas under Palestinian control, provided they refrain from violence. Troops never reoccupied Jericho during the past three years of fighting, and the only Israeli military presence is at checkpoints on the outskirts. Soldiers are also posted outside Qalqiliya, staging arrest raids from time to time. OBITUARIES George Pearl Architect Left Indelible Mark on Landscape of State years, as the principal designer for Stevens Mallo-ry Pearl Campbell, now known as SMPC Architects. An early project of his was the old Albuquerque Civic Auditd- I Friends described his manner as courtly and meditative.

Pearl's sister, Bernice Sanders of Albuquerque, said he died Saturday. He went to a favorite restaurant with friends and afterward said he wasn't feeling well "He said he didnt feel like driving and got in the back," she said. During the drive, he stopped breathing. The cause of death was a heart attack, she said Funeral services for Pearl will be private. He is survived by Sanders and his nephew, Calton Peari of Albuquerque.

building and translate it into a very spare, clean, modern form," Hurley said. "He had the ability to use the right material so that it wouldn't turn tacky on him," he said. New Mexico was Pearl's muse and its image is manifest in all he did. "Architecture is contextual," he told an Albuquerque Tribune reporter in 1980. "If it is to mean anything, it must reflect." Pearl served in World War IL suffering an arm injury during his tour.

Afterward, he earned his architecture degree from the University of Texas. He was a lifelong bachelor. architect Frank Lloyd Wright, in town in 1956 to give a lecture. He went on to do the main Albuquerque Public Library, the library and National Radio Astronomy Observatory on the New Mexico Tech campus in Socorro, Simms Fine Arts Center at Albuquerque Academy, and the theater and the college of business on the campus of Eastern New Mexico University in Portales. He also had a passion for preservation.

He worked on the restoration of De Vargas Hotel, now St Francis Hotel, and served on many conservation-oriented boards. Among these were the New Mexico Heritage Preservation Alliance and the Albuquerque Conservation Association (he was a founding member of both), and the city of Albuquerque's Landmarks and Urban Conservation Commission. Pearl designed the residence of a long-time friend, Albuquerque landscape artist Wilson Hurley. Hurley said he met Pearl about 50 years ago while doing a mural project for a building Pearl had designed. A hallmark of Pearl's work is its timelessness, Hurley said.
