Late Friday, investigators were checking to see if the Chevrolet was the vehicle involved in another auto theft in Yucaipa shortly after 6 p.m., Sullivan said. That theft also involved three suspects one armed with a sawed-off rifle in a vehicle with Alaska license plates. About 9 p.m., Rialto police Officer Ken Madsen spotted the Chevrolet traveling without lights and running a stop sign at Lilac and Etiwanda avenues in Rialto, Sullivan said. Madsen tried to make a traffic stop, but the vehicle sped away.

Madsen was assisted by Officer Tony Farrar and Sullivan during the chase, which reached speeds of 95 mph. Sullivan gave this account of the pursuit, which included a sheriffs helicopter and California Highway Patrol units: Police chased the Chevrolet eastbound on Base Line into San Bernardino, then across city streets into Colton, where the vehicle entered southbound Interstate 215. It then got off the freeway at Barton Road in Grand Terrace, made a U-turn, got on to northbound 1-215, then turned onto the westbound transition of Interstate 10. "They were driving so recklessly on the freeway that we thought there was going to be a horrendous collision at several points," Sullivan said. Shortly after passing the interchange, "it appears that they ran out of gas because they kind of coasted to a stop," he said.

Before stopping, "they threw a sawed-off rifle out the window, which was recovered," Sullivan said. "That's probably the rifle used in the (Redlands) armed robbery." By TOMMY LI Sun Staff Writer Four youths were caught late Friday after leading authorities on a high-speed chase that began in Rialto and wound through two cities before ending on Interstate 10 in Colton, police said. Three boys and a girl ages 15 to 17 were detained on suspicion of auto theft and armed robbery, said Rialto police Sgt. Chris Sullivan. Two of them are believed to have been from Red-lands.

The hometowns of the other two weren't available. The suspects are believed to have committed a series of armed thefts of vehicles Friday in Red-lands and Yucaipa, police said. No information was available about the Redlands robbery, except that it involved three suspects who took a light tan Chevrolet with Alaska license plates at Spacecraft starts Jupiter flyby offramp, closed indefinitely for reconstruction.

St. Ulysses is studying unexplored regions of the giant planet's huge magnetic field and intense radiation belts. By LEESIEGEL Associated Press PASADENA The Ulysses spacecraft started a 17-day encounter with Jupiter on Friday, taking readings while it zooms in to use the giant planet as a gravity slingshot so it can study the sun's poles. "It's an exciting event that we've been looking forward to for 16 months. We're glad it's here," said Don Meyer, NASA's deputy mission operations manager at Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

The $750 million NASA-European Space Agency mission literally will reach a turning point at 4 a.m. PST Feb. 8. That's when Ulysses makes its closest approach to the solar system's largest planet, flying within 235,000 miles of the cloud tops. Jupiter's tremendous gravity will bend Ulysses' path at an 80-degree angle, throwing the craft out of the plane in which the pi an-ets orbit the sun.

That will let Ulysses loop over the sun's south polar regions during June-September 1994 and above the north polar latitudes during June-September 1995. Ulysses simply needs to get out of the plane of the planets to look down on the sun's poles, not actually approach the sun. It never will get closer to the sun than it was on the launch pad. During its flight past Jupiter, Ulysses is studying unexplored regions of the giant planet's huge magnetic field and intense radiation belts. It is not equipped to take pictures.

NASA declared Friday the formal start of Ulysses' Jupiter encounter. But it really began Actors' unions By JOHN HORN Associated Press LOS ANGELES Two unions representing actors opened contract talks with producers Friday. Wages, video dollars and working rights for extras were the main issues and several studio chiefs say a strike this summer is possible. Producers already are racing to finish filming all theatrical and television movies before contracts expire June 30. The Screen Actors Guild and the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists, representing 120,000 performers, want higher wages and greater participation in the booming home video market.

But the key union issue is screen extras, non-speaking background players hoping to find a voice at the negotiating table. The 5,000 members of the Screen Extras Guild have not had a contract for two years. They want to merge their union with the Screen Actors Guild. Extras working outside New York earn $58 a day.

Carrillo, 72, of San Bernardino died of cancer Thursday at Kaiser Permanente Medical Center in Fontana. Carrillo, a native of Tucson, lived in San Bernardino 29 years.

Ulysses also is measuring other phenomena in Jupiter's magnetic field, including plasma a gas of electrically charged particles radio waves, dust and X-rays. Meyer said learning about Jupiter's magnetic field is important because "it's part of the evolution of the solar system. My God, you have to know how the planets tick!" he said. Ulysses was launched from the space shuttle Discovery on Oct. 6, 1990.

It is a joint mission of the European Space Agency, which supplied the spacecraft and half its instruments, and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, which built the other instruments, launched the ship and tracks it. negotiations they'll get a strike." If a tentative deal cannot be reached by Feb. 12 on the main points, the entire contract more than 100 pages long will be renegotiated, the actors unions say. Producers say they need the rollbacks because of an industrywide slowdown. The entertainment industry remains hugely profitable overall, but network television is in the dumps and domestic movie attendance is flat.

Meanwhile, production and marketing costs are skyrocketing. The last Screen Actors Guild strike, in 1980, lasted 12 weeks and caused 40,000 related layoffs. More disruptive and costing the industry an estimated $500 million was a 22-week walkout by the Writers Guild of America in 1988, which virtually closed Hollywood. Although some big stars such Arnold Schwarzenegger earn more than $10 million a movie, the majority go wanting. Mark MEMORIAL CHAPEL 1 S25 No.

late Thursday night when Ulysses' tape recorder was switched off and the spacecraft started transmitting data directly to ground controllers, Meyer Ulysses was 6,6 million miles from Jupiter and 416 million miles from Earth on Friday, after traveling a curving, 617-million-mile path, Meyer said. The spacecraft was approaching Jupiter at 32,459 mph. Jupiter previously was visited by Pioneer 10 in 1973, Pioneer 11 in 1974 and Voyagers 1 and 2 in 1979. Ulysses will fly closer to Jupiter than Voyager 2 did, but not as close as the other three spacecraft. Ulysses is studying Jupiter's gargantuan "magnetosphere," a magnetic field larger and stronger than any other planet's.

The field, stretched into a shape like a candle flame, stretches across 465 million miles of space, reaching open contract salaries, extras collect $220 daily, producers say. If the New York rate were applied nationally, producers say, it would cost studios a combined $34.1 million. The unions dispute that figure. "We're trying not to inflame the issue (but) these extras are not even skilled workers," said one studio chief, speaking on condition of anonymity. Some actors look down on extras as hangers-on more interested in shoving their way into scenes than blending in.

Others see the background players as their brethren. Many New York guild members work as extras. Representatives of the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers, the producers' bargaining arm, declined to be interviewed, citing a news blackout, People familiar with the talks said the producers will ask actors to take substantial cuts on residual payments for television reruns. They also want to limit first-class airplane travel for actors, guaranteed by union contracts. Said one person close to the actors' side, "If they seriously think they're going to rollback prime-time network residuals, The family of Armand Tougas wishes to thank his many friends for their cards, phone calls and offers of assistance, flowers and food.
