George Bush and Michael Dukakis
courted the support of Italian
Americans in competing Columbus
Day appearances Monday that left
plenty of time to polish their lines
in private for this week's second and
final presidential campaign debate.
It was a day that mixed campaign
rhetoric with colorful made-for-television
images.
Dukakis proposed a plan to make
it easier for first-time home buyers
to finance their residences before he
marched in a Columbus Day parade
up Fifth Avenue in mid-town Man

New York Mayor Ed Koch and John

Bush took a turn at a pool table
in an Italian neighborhood in New
Jersey, bouncing the No. 4 ball in the
corner pocket while the morning
patrons cheered. After that came a
speech on crime.
Their daily campaign rounds over,
both men hustled back to their
political retreats to resume prepara
tions for their prime-time debate later
in the week.
Both camps said they expected the
90-minute debate to be held at 9 p.m.
EDT Thursday night on the campus
of UCLA, and the presidential rivals
were flying to the West Coast on
Tuesday to prepare.
The candidates exuded confidence
as they began the final four weeks
ment had to be "not just incidental,
but material."
"We have achieved a great victory,"
said Lewis Pitts, an attorney for
Jacobs from the Christie Institute
South, at a news conference during
a court recess. "We predicted several
months ago that the federal hostage
taking charges would be dropped,
and they have been, at least against
Jacobs.
"We believe the judge should have,
in fact, ordered an acquittal on those

The vice president, a step ahead in
the polls, said he was heartened by
surveys showing him the leader across
the South and in other key states.
Countered Dukakis: "This one is
out there to be won. . . j We can taste
it. We can feel it."
Indiana Sen. Dan Quayle was the
only vice presidential candidate with
appearances scheduled.
He was in Ohio and Michigan,
where he offered another refinement
of the answer to the question in last
week's debate that plagued him
what would he do if he suddenly
became president.
He said he would make a. request
of hostage charge
charges against Eddie Hatcher," Pitts
said. "It underscores how unfair it is
to Eddie not to have his lawyer with
him."
Boyle ordered Hatcher to represent
himself after Hatcher refused to
accept other counsel. His attorney,
William Kuntsler, is involved in
another case in New York and has
been unable to participate in
Hatcher's trial.

it is premature concerning the evi-

to speak to the nation and would
consult with U.S. allies.
"Obviously you do different things
under an assassination. The first thing
you do in an assassination I would
still say a prayer for myself and the
nation but the first thing you do
is you get on the phone and call the
head of the CIA and see what he
thinks it was. You don't convene a
Cabinet meeting right away," Quayle
said.
"You get your secretary of defense,
your national security adviser, your
secretary of state and meet with them
immediately. In the situation of an
illness it would be a different type
of situation," he said.
dence with respect to defendant
Hatcher to make a ruling, and that
this should proceed to the jury,"
Boyle said.
But he said prosecutors had pres
ented no evidence that Jacobs had
made a demand on the government
or had aided Hatcher in making a
demand.
The hostage-taking charge was
linked with a second charge of
committing a violent crime with an
illegal firearm. Boyle also dismissed
that charge against Jacobs.
Hatcher and Jacobs still face
charges of conspiracy, making an
illegal firearm, possessing an unreg
istered firearm and conveying false
information concerning explosives.
In a written order, Boyle advised
defense attorneys that he would not
accept their "necessity defense." The
judge said there was no direct rela
tionship between the hostages taken
at The Robesonian and the threats
perceived by Hatcher and Jacobs.
Pitts said that decision would force
defense lawyers to try an alternate
route.
"It's not over," Pitts said. "These
two men did not have criminal intent
when they took the hostages Feb. 1,
and we hope to be able to show that
to the jury."

Supreme Court to decide
'reverse paternity case'
From Associated Press reports
LOS ANGELES Two men
claiming fatherhood of a seven-year-old
girl are asking the U.S.
Supreme Court for a Solomon
like decision which could affect
other fathers in so-called reverse
paternity cases.
"This case arises out of a societal
phenomenon of men assuming the
responsibility we've always told
them to assume as parents," says
attorney Larry Hoffman. The case
is scheduled to be heard Tuesday
by the highcourt.
In the classic paternity case, a
man who denies fathering a child
out of wedlock may be forced by
the courts to take financial respon
sibility for the child.
"I consider this a double reverse
paternity case," Hoffman says.
"We have not one, but two, men
coming forward wanting to sup
port and care for this child."
Hoffman represents a married
couple, Gerald and Carole Dear
ing, who are fighting a suit by
Michael Hirschensohn, Mrs.
Dealing's former lover.
Hirschensohn, who says he is
the biological father of Victoria
Dearing, wants visitation rights
and "the opportunity to be
involved in the child's life," says
his attorney, Joel Aaronson.
Sanford stumps for Dukakis
Shrugging off polls that show
Michael Dukakis running behind
in the South, Sen. Terry Sanford
said Monday that many voters had
yet to focus on the campaign and

GOP's undoing
Sanford, who said he would
begin campaigning full-time for
the Democratic ticket later this
week, told reporters Dukakis
would hold his own in the South
if he effectively conveys his mes
sage on a handful of key issues.
"I think we will do very well,"
Sanford said. "I don't think polls
at this time mean much in terms
of who you're going to vote for."
Most important, he said, is that
the surveys indicate most voters
"care about the things Dukakis
stands for and they are worried
about all the things that Bush
brings to the campaign."
Also, he said, Bush's support "is
very soft" and many people may
change their minds as they learn
more about the candidates and
issues!

Artists rock for human rights
ABIDJAN, Ivory Coast The
"Human Rights Now!" rock tour
filled this west African' nation's,
national stadium for a nine-hour
concert that ended early Monday.
Sting, Bruce Springsteen, Tracy
Chapman and other stars per
formed under hazy tropical skies
in a concert whose aim was to
celebrate the 40th anniversary of
the Universal Declaration of
Human Rights.
More than 30,000 people filled
the stadium, many of them danc
ing, waving and singing on the
grass as hundreds of fruit bats
circled overhead.
Sting, asked at a pre-concert
news conference what hope he had
of persuading dictators to demo
cratize, said, "The dictator is not
our target. The dictator doesn't
listen to our records. He doesn't
know our faces. He doesn't care.
"Our targets are his children,
and his grandchildren, and his
grandchildren's friends, maybe his
mistress, people who will inherit
. the political infrastructures of the
countries we visit. I think there are
more young people than old
people in the world today. We
have a great deal of influence with
that constituency. And 10, 15 years
from now, we hope that the seed
we plant when we come to a
country will bear fruit in a very
real way, in a very pragmatic
honest way, when these people
achieve real power."
