Dye's purse was found in the garbage outside Kyles' home, and the gun used to kill her was found in his apartment But Kyles denied any involvement in the killing, contending a police informant framed him and planted the evidence. The informant, Joseph Wallace, said he bought Dye's car from Kyles for ALLEGED INDECENT BROADCASTS WASHINGTON (AP) The Supreme Court today let stand a ruling that bars radio listeners upset over allegedly indecent broadcasts from asking federal courts to revive complaints that government regulators dismissed. The justices, without comment, refused to review a ruling that said radio listeners generally don't have the proper legal standing to pursue such complaints beyond the Federal Communications Commission. Peter Branton filed a complaint with the commission after listening to a National Public Radio news program on radio station WSMC-FM in Chattanooga, the evening of Feb. 28, 1989.

The program contained a report on reputed New York mobster John Gotti, and included a tape-recorded telephone conversation between Gotti and an associate that was used as trial evidence. Delay (Continued from page 1) patients. But now insurance companies who cover those patients also are balking at the higher costs. "Hospitals are going to be at greater risk because there's not going to be a place to shift the costs, and that's why many people are getting concerned about this (discharge-delay) issue," said Jim Walker, the association's vice president of health and human resources. Cost cutting is essential, as the Medial University of South Carolina in Charleston said Thursday when it announced it plans to cuts as many as 1,500 jobs in the next five years.

Another way to cut costs is to find alternatives to keeping patients too long, the study said. But no one solution will do, Walker said. "We need to recognize this is a very complex problem that needs a very comprehensive ap-. proach," he said. School (Continued from page 1) method is far more effective than a traditional classroom, public or private, according to parents and home schooling advocates interviewed by The (Columbia) State.

Mothers more 6ften fulfill the teaching role, the newspaper reported Sunday. "I think some home school moms may find it sort of like rediscovering motherhood or parenting," said James Carper, a University of South Carolina professor whose children have been home schooled. "Home schooling may fulfill a lot of homemak-ers' frustrations in a culture that doesn't seem to value stay-at-home moms." Al and Rose Rios of Columbia share the teaching duties, although Mrs. Rios ends up doing most of it. All four of their children Jonathan, 13, Lana, 8, Melody 4, and Lauren, 2 are taught at home.

Finance (Continued from nomy was heading for its best performance in five years despite such threats as rising interest rates and growing trade imbalances. "We thought, on the whole, things were very much better than they were 12 months ago. We were quite optimistic about the outlook," British Chancellor of the Exchequer Kenneth Clarke told reporters Sunday after five hours of closcd-door meetings. In support of Clarke's views, the British government reported today that Britain's economy grew 2.6- percent in the 12 months ending in March, which Clarke called "very good" news and right in line with the government's expectations. The Group of Seven meetings were held in advance of today's start of the annual spring meetings of the 178-nation World Bank and its sister lending organization, the World Bank.
