a not at B12 RED DEER ADVOCATE, Thursday, November 11, 1993 Three more children die in Sarajevo SARAJEVO, Bosnia Herzegovina (AP) Three more children were killed in Sarajevo on Wednesday, and mourners gathered after dark to bury other youngsters who died in 11 mortar attack on a school. Wednesday's death toll in the city rose to eight, with 25 wounded, Sarajevo government radio reported, as shelling and sniping reached a new pitch. The injured included 15 children. It wasn't immediately known how the three children were killed. On Tuesday, at least nine people died, including several children, and at least 70 were injured in the worst shelling of the capital in almost month.

Sniper fire buzzed over mourners' heads Wednesday evening at the funeral of three of the children killed Tuesday when two mortar rounds landed beside their Sarajevo school. 'The Muslim cleric, or hodza, presiding at the ceremony asked news photographers to stop using flash bulbs, fearing the light might aid snipers. For months, funerals in Sarajevo have been held after nightfall because snipers fired at daytime services. "The children of Bosnia are being killed, and yet they are innocent," the hodza told several dozen mourners. After the service, the hodza asked most of the mourners to stay where they were, in a protected dip in the terrain while relatives walked to the burial area carrying the three small bodies on wooden boards covered with sheets.

Sarajevo's mayor, Muhammed Kresevljakovic, visited the school Wednesday, touring a classroom in which two pupils and a teacher died and 22 students were wounded. He suggested that the classroom, bloodstained a and I ripped apart by shrapnel, be left unchanged as a memorial to the victims. Lt. -Col. Bill Aikman, a UN spokesman, said Peeping Tom photos rift fixed by papers LONDON (Reuter) British newspapers mended a rift Wednesday over the tabloid Mirror group's publication of Peeping Tom photos of Diana, the Princess of Wales, in a bid to avoid tough new government curbs on press freedom.

Mirror Group Newspapers said after talks with the I Press Complaints Commission, the industry's self-regulatory body, that it would rejoin the watchdog it quit i in anger earlier this week and co-operate fully in the commission's work. The Mirror group, being sued by the princess for publishing shots taken of her by a hidden camera as she exercised in a leotard in a London fitness club, had withdrawn from the commission Monday after criticizing its chairman. After Wednesday's talks, the Mirror withdrew its criticism of Lord MacGregor for condemning the Mirror and MacGregor withdrew his call for an advertising boycott of the Mirror. The Mirror group's decision to return to the fold may help Britain's newspaper industry stave off threatened press curbs. The government's attitude on imposing media controls has steadily hardened in the past three years after a string of royal "revelations," from phone-tapping to long-lens prying.

Israel, Jordan peace near JERUSALEM (AP) Israel and Jordan have reached agreement in principle on a peace treaty, a cabinet minister said Wednesday. Housing Minister Benjamin Ben-Eliezer told Israel radio he could not confirm the details reported in an Israeli daily, saying they had not been brought to a cabinet vote. But he said it was possible Israel would agree to hand back land, and to some military in exchange for peace. "An agreement in principle is locked in and closed," Ben-Elizer said. The Maariv newspaper said Wednesday that Foreign Minister Shimon Peres and Crown Prince Hassan of neighboring Jordan initialed a peace treaty during a se.

cret visit by Peres to Amman on Nov. 2. Other reports said a full signing could come this week in Washington. Maariv said Israel agreed to return some territory 11 seized around the Dead Sea and the desert south of it. Jordan agreed in exchange to lease the land to Israel for a symbolic price, it said.

The treaty also calls for economic co-operation and normalized relations, including an exchange of ambassadors, the report said. An understanding linked to the agreement says Israel would provide a "military umbrella" to protect Jordan from threats from other countries, Maariv added. In Amman, Information Minister Maan Abu Nouwar said Jordan's government was not aware of an initialed treaty. King Hussein told a news conference on Tuesday he would not sign a pact before Syria does. Israel's talks with Syria appear deadlocked.

Israel and Jordan signed an agenda for a peace agreement but not a full-fledged treaty In Washington on Sept. 14, one day after Israel and the Palestine Liberation Organization signed their peace accord. Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin's spokesman, Gad Bensaid Jordan and the Jewish state were "getting closer," but no plans exist for any agreements to be signed in the few days. Rabin arranged to leave for Washington Wednesday. Career Opportunities Join the Team at Kipp Scott Pontiac Buick Ltd.

The government appealed for calm and said it was immediately appealing the court verdict. Judge Dolapo Akinsanya issued the ruling in a case brought by thwarted presidential contender Moshood Abiola. The judge said military ruler Ibrahim Babangida, who stepped down Aug.

Many people poured onto the streets of Lagos calling for Abiola's installation in the presidency, which he is widely believed to have won in the June 12 election annulled by Babangida. Nigeria has been in crisis since June over the military's messy ending of its 10 year rule. "President Babangida has no legitimate power to sign a decree after August 26, 1993, after his exit so the decree is void and of no effect," Judge Akinsanya declared. She ordered that a civilian constitution, which was drawn up under Babangida in 1989 but never implemented, go into effect.

KUWAIT (Reuter) Kuwait reported an exchange of heavy fire between Kuwaiti and Iraqi forces Wednesday, a week after one of their most serious post-Gulf War border incidents. Iraqi denied any shooting took place. The Interior Ministry, in a statement carried by the official Kuwait News Agency, said Iraqi forces opened "heavy fire on a Kuwaiti observation outpost east of alAbdali. "The (Kuwaiti) outpost returned the fire after calling in reinforcements," it said. No casualties were reported.

The ministry said Kuwait had informed the UN IraqKuwait Observer Mission stationed in the demilitarized zone established between the two countries following the 1991 Gulf War. Iraq called the Kuwaiti report "completely fabricated and groundless." "No firing incident took place with the Kuwaiti side," an Iraqi spokesman said. Abdali is in the border's highly sensitive northern sector, where Iraqi farmers will shortly be required to leave a number of farms defined as being inside Kuwait under a UN border demarcation carried out earlier this year. The demilitarized zone straddles a newly drawn border that Iraq has refused to recognize. Iraqi troops were expelled from the affluent oil-exporting emirate by a U.S.-led coalition in Operation Desert Storm in February, 1991.

Wednesday's reported incident occurred a week after one of the most serious border clashes between the emirate and its former occupier since the 1991 conflict. An Iraqi policeman died Nov. 3 after he was shot in an exchange of pistol fire with a Kuwaiti civilian in Kuwait. the CORRECTION NOTICE In our B10-2 Bay Day Preview flyer, off Jackets on page 2 should have read "Our reg. 79.99 to $299.
