“I chose public service as a career
because 1 felt that was a noble pursuit,”
Stevens said. “The way I approach the
job is to listen to the public and work
with community groups.”
With three degrees from UNC,
Stevens is no stranger to the University
for which he is searching to find the
next chancellor. Wright saw this dedi
cation to the University as further justi
fication for Stevens’ honor.
“He has remained a committed Tar
Heel, not just in Chapel Hill but to the
entire state of North Carolina.”

The cause of the blaze has yet to be
determined.
Bloomsburg police Sgt. Joe
Wondoloski said, “We can’t rule out a
cigarette being thrown down and smol
dering, or an electrical overload. There
were space heaters there. There was a
DJ there at one point.”
The fire started several hours after the
end of a party attended by about 30 stu
dents.
Bloomsburg, founded in 1839, is a
state university about 100 miles north
west of Philadelphia with an enrollment
of about 7,500.

aimed at improving campus fire safety.
The bill would force public and pri

student housing within five years.

The 79-year-old pope was making a
27-hour stop in Jordan on his tour of Old
and New Testament sites that will take
him to Israel and the Palestinian territo
ries.
His visits are fraught with controver
sy. John Paul insists it is a spiritual trip
with no political agenda, but he also
hopes to be a catalyst for peace and har
mony.
“No matter how difficult, no matter
how long, the process of seeking peace
must continue,” the pontiff said on the
first day of his weeklong trip.
Upon arriving from Rome, John Paul
went immediately to Mount Nebo,
where tradition says the prophet Moses
first saw the Promised Land after wan
dering for 40 years in the desert.
He stood for five minutes, peering at
the Dead Sea, Jericho and the hills of
Jerusalem through the afternoon haze.
“Our gaze directed toward Jerusalem,
let us lift up our prayers to Almighty
God, for all the people living in the land
of promise, Jews, Muslims, Christians,”
he said.
“Bestow upon all who live here the
gift of true peace, justice, fraternity.”
The pope was welcomed in jordan by
King Abdullah II along with Christian
and Muslim clerics.

Clinton Visits India
To End Nuclear Battles
NEW DELHI, India - President
Clinton’s mission to back South Asia
away from nuclear-tinged confrontation
is beginning wordlessly, at the simple
marble monument to India’s apostle of
nonviolence.
With the silent laying of a wreath in
homage to Mohandas Gandhi on
Tuesday morning, President Clinton was
planning to let the imagery speak for
itself. But after that was coming a series
of meetings at which Clinton hoped to
persuade reluctant Indian leaders to ban
nuclear testing and cool tensions with
Pakistan in their bitter dispute over the
Himalayan territory of Kashmir.
Formally opening the first visit in 22
years by an American president, Clinton
was set for a pomp-filled welcome at
Rashtrapati Bhavan, the presidential
palace that was built as a grand estate for
British viceroys in the years of colonial
rule.
Then it was straight on to the Gandhi
memorial.
Clinton arrived in New Delhi on
Monday evening after a visit to
Bangladesh that proved something of a

Md. Suspect Retains
Hostages, Fires Shots
DUNDALK, Md. - A shot was fired
Monday inside.the house where an
alleged killer has been holding his ex
girlfriend’s mother and two other people
hostage since Friday, authorities said.

have just had this one shot.”
