The Daily Tar HeelThursday, August 30, 1 9901 5A Violence in Armenia spurs emergency rule From Associated Press reports MOSCOW Armenia's parlia ment put the republic under emer gency rule, banned a nationalist paramilitary group and blocked roads around the capital Wednesday after a string of attacks left an Armenian legislator dead. The central Soviet government was not involved in the decision. A curfew from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. was imposed throughout the republic, and an Inte rior Ministry officer said troops with armored vehicles were guarding all roads to Yerevan, the capital, allow ing passage only by special permit. Armenian President Levon Ter Petrosyan appealed in a radio broad cast for calm. "I assure you that we, the Armenian authorities, are in a position to eliminate the danger posed by this armed organization," Ter Petrosyan said. "There should be no panicking." Alexander Arzumanyan, a spokesman for the Armenian Na tional Movement, and Raffi Hovannisian, a Yerevan representative of the Armenian Assembly of America, said in telephone interviews the attacks began early Wednesday. According to their description of events, members of the renegade Ar menian National Army attacked a gas station and shot three people. An Armenian legislator, Viktor Aivazian, was then shot to death as he approached the headquarters of the Armenian National Army to investi gate the gas-station incident. Also killed in the shooting was Gehavnik Manukyan, an officer of armed Ar menian National Movement troops loyal to the republic's government. Later Wednesday, members of the Armenian National Army attacked the headquarters of the Armenian Nation alist Movement with automatic weap Bored?

Tass said the attack lasted about an hour. No casualties were reported. Also Wednesday, another member of Armenia's parliament, Rafael Ishkhanian, was run over by a vehicle without plates and was in critical condition, Hovannisian said. It was unclear if Ishkhanian was hit deliberately. But Hovannisian said the parliament stood for a moment of silence for both Aivazian and Ishkhanian before unanimously adopting the state of emergency. Parliament also banned the Arme nian National Army, which was formed in January and claims to pro tect Armenians from attacks by armed groups from the neighboring republic of Azerbaijan. However, ANA members have attacked police stations and gasoline depots in Armenia to seize the weapons and fuel they need to fight Azerbaijanis. Armenia, which is mostly Chris tian, and Azerbaijan, which is mostly Moslem, have been engaged for more than two years in a bloody dispute for jurisdiction overNagomo-Karabakh, a largely Armenian enclave that lies within Azerbaijan. At least 300 people have been killed in the fighting. At times, Armenian officials have appeared to tolerate the Armenian National Army, which is believed to have several hundred hard-core fight ers and many more sympathizers. But on Wednesday, the republic's leaders formally outlawed the vigilante group. "The people's patience has run out," Ter-Petrosyan said in his radio ad dress. "They can no longer bear the adventurism of these armed detach ments which endanger both the se curity of our citizens and the forma tion of our statehood." Clapton show goes on despite helicopter crash From Associated Press reports BONNER SPRINGS, Kan. Ap parently wishing to let his music speak for him, guitar master Eric Clapton performed without mention of blues comrade Stevie Ray Vaughan and other friends killed in a helicopter crash. He went through the show Tuesday night at Sandstone Amphitheatre seemingly like any other rock 'n' roll performance, although he had been on stage with Vaughan 48 hours earlier in Wisconsin. Gus Fasone, general manager at Sandstone, said Clapton refused all in terviews and demanded that reporters and camera crews be barred from backstage. 'The people around him, it's like they are in shock," Fasone said. gr jp p f JORDAN LAKE-CROSSWINDS MARINA tag- windsurfers & sailboats call for reservations & info, now! 919-362-0040 LI A J. vV.

"Backstage, it's like they aren't func tioning, they're going through the mo tions." Little of that showed to the more than 1 6,000 fans at the outdoor theater, about 20 miles west of Kansas City, Mo. "I think (the band) did an extremely brave thing," Fasone said. The helicopter crashed in dense fog early Monday, a few hours after a blues jam featuring Clapton, Vaughan and guitarist Robert Cray at Alpine Valley Music Theatre near East Troy, Wis. "When I heard the radio I almost cried," said Mark Petitt, a 25-year-old Kansas City , Mo. , man wearing a Stevie Ray Vaughan T-shirt.
