4 Thursday, June 1, 2000 Fujimori Clings to Presidency in Peru Associated Press President Alberto Fujimori risked international isolation and violent protests in his quest for a third term in a runoff election boycotted by his rival and by criticized foreign monitors. Voters lined up by the hundreds to cast ballots in Lima and around the country, disregarding challenger Alejandro Toledo's call to stay away from the polls. Peruvians faced fines if they did not vote, but many planned to mark “no to fraud” on their ballots. “Naturally I'm going to void my vote, a vote of protest, because what we want is to regain democracy,” said Gerardo Cantano, a former accountant. “We've never seen this before, a presi dent clinging so tightly to power. He's bringing us economic isolation. There will be no foreign investment.” He spoke in La Victoria, an inner city working-class neighborhood in Lima with high unemployment. Posters of Fujimori's smiling face hung from lampposts on the street outside the school where people waited to vote. As elsewhere, soldiers and police patrolled the nearby streets to control any outbreak of violent protests by anti- Fujimori demonstrators.

His support is solid in the sprawling shantytowns on Lima's outskirts, where he has paved streets, installed electrici ty, built schools and provided soup kitchens for the poor. In Lurigancho, located among bar ren, dusty foothills on Lima's eastern outskirts, large red-and-white letters painted on the school's front wall said “Fujimori Gets Things Done!” Maria Marin, 40, waiting in line to vote with two small daughters in tow, agreed with the message. “He is the only one to get things done for us,” she said, repeating Fujimori’s campaign slogan. “He paved the streets, fixed up the schools. More than anything, he is with the people. When it rains, he gets his feet muddy.” The 61-year-old Fujimori, dubbed “The Emperor” for his autocratic style but with a common touch that appeals to Peru's poor, ignored the boycott by Toledo, violent street protests and the withdrawal of foreign monitors who warned a fair vote could not be guaran teed. 9 Hollywood hopeful 10 Helmet with a visor 11 Rectify 12 Seoul land 13 Organic com pound 18 Pierre's school 23 Dynamic leader? 25 Frequently in a poem 26 "The Canterbury Tales” writer 28 Close kin, briefly 30 Prohibit 31 Fuss 32 Eccentric piece 34 Summer at the Sorbonne 35 Grappler's cushion 36 Family member 39 Black goo 42 1993 Nobel winner 43 Grade sch. 44 Suitable for set tlement 46 Low-pitched 2 3 4~ 6 8 11 12 13 __ st n ~~ - 20 Mp 0072 —23 24 25 28 tap tatatagi >o 3i 3?"1 ‘fee 3-. 32 tatatanls 3^ 41 142 43 tag^bi 51 52 53 THk" 57 58 59 noeo tar 62 tap ,4 1^" jpgl figli SpringlSummer Specials mshsJs* and Brakes 407 E.

Key elements of the new Europe include an expanded NATO alliance and a European Union committed to accepting new members from among its former adversaries. Throughout Europe, leaders are engaged in a wide-ranging debate about the continent's economic, political and social future. Nations which once rejected the American economic model outright are now struggling to find ways to adapt it without sacrificing their own traditions and identity. Without disregarding the role of European leaders themselves, European analysts acknowledge that much of the impetus for these changes has come from Washington during the Clinton years. In an expression of gratitude, Clinton will be awarded the prestigious International Charlemagne Prize during a ceremony Friday in Aachen, Germany. The award is presented annu ally to a person who has worked toward European unity. During a weeklong tour, which was to begin Monday evening, Clinton will (C)2000 Tribune Media Services, Inc.

He will journey on to Russia for weekend talks with the new presi dent, Vladimir Putin, and then travel June 5 to the Ukraine for a meeting with President Leonid Kuchma before departing for Washington that night. Clinton's contribution, analysts believe, was not in promoting anew vision for Europe. Instead, he built on the legacy of others - President George Bush, Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev, French President Francois Mitterrand and German Chancellor Helmut Kohl - at a time when many Europeans expected America to with draw from the continent after the Cold War ended.

Jeff Davies, UNC vice president for finance, said he was happy just to see state-supported financial aid as a part of the governor’s budget. “We’re excited the governor has included (financial aid funding),” Davies said. “(The General Assembly) has to weigh the availability of resources and try to put forth the best CUTS From Page 1 Similar actions, such as taking the stu dent cause to the capital to fight for the cause of financial aid, are strong possi bilities according to Chapman. “We’re going to continue doing what we’re KURALT CENTER From Page 1 loved Charles," he said. Cranford, gesturing toward the pho tograph of Kuralt with Norman Schwarzkopf, said he was a good friend to many important people. "He was a very exciting man," she said. Billie Nagelschmidt, the school's for mer business manager, worked at Kenan-Flagler Business School while Kuralt served as editor of the Daily Tar Heel. She spent three months sorting through more than 200 boxes of materi als, including many of Kuralt's posses sions and memorabilia, and deciding how to display them. Nagelschmidt said there are still a number of unopened boxes. Materials not in the center have been donated to the Southern Historical Collection in Wilson Library. "His life is very interesting, what he was able to do," said Nagelschmidt. "I found it fascinating and something of a challenge to decide which among so many items would be displayed. I had a wonderful time doing that, just going through the things." Kuralt was born in Wilmington in 1934 and attended UNC-CH from 1951-55.

The key event was the conflict in the former Yugoslavia, which broke out in the twilight of the Bush administration. Elected on a domestic platform, Clinton - like Bush - considered the Balkans a European problem without any vital U.S. interest at stake. As the bloodshed worsened and with the Europeans unable to resolve their own policy differences, Washington became more and more involved, final ly orchestrating the 1995 peace settle ment for Bosnia in Dayton, Ohio, and the intervention in Kosovo last year. Even critics acknowledge that noth ing moved without America. “He will be seen as the one who wait budget.” This balancing act is especially true this year, with a $450 shortfall between the proposed budget and the expected revenue of the state. Dorman said this gap was the prima ry reason the financial aid proposal was underfunded. “It all has to do with a matter of money,” he said. “This is a tight budget year, but sll million is a terrific start.” The financial aid funding probably will not change, Insko said, but a pro posal had been suggested in committee to increase state employees’ salaries by doing, and strong student involvement is definitely a part of that,” she said. However, some students said response to the student aid fight appears to be fragmented since it is an issue that does not affect all students, unlike the tuition increase. “Part of the problem in gathering sup port is that our tuition here at Carolina was editor from 1954-55. Kuralt didn’t shy away from contro versy, performing editorial attacks on U.S. Sen. Joe McCarthy and being called “a pawn of the communists” on the floor of the state legislature. Cranford said Kuralt kept dropping classes to devote more time to the DTH until he was "majoring in Tar Heel." Kuralt showed that same devotion to journalism in his first professional job at The Charlotte News, where he became known for his human-interest columns.

That record still stands. Kuralt eventually became famous for his television work on the CBS pro grams, "On The Road" and "Sunday Morning,” as well as for the several books he wrote. Kuralt supported the University and the school until his death nearly three years ago, serving on several boards and making a donation in his father's honor for the completion of the Tate-Turner- Kuralt building, which houses the School of Social Work.

But they are used to looking to America.” NATO expansion resulted in anew European security system and an affir mation of Washington's commitment to Europe. “As far as Europe is concerned, what will remain of Clinton first and foremost is NATO enlargement,” said Dominique Moisi of the French Institute for International Relations. “It was a symbol of the fact that, con trary to what everybody was expecting after the end of the Cold War, there was more of America in Europe, not less.” five percent instead of three. This proposed increase in salary and other funding would show the state is doing its part to support UNC faculty, say some opponents of the tuition hike.

The next day, UNC President Emeritus Bill Friday received a letter from Kuralt expressing his desire to be buried in the Old Chapel Hill Cemetery, if Friday could find room. He found room. Kuralt's widow, Suzanna "Petie" Kuralt, donated the office's con tents and numer ous other items to the School after his death in 1997. Cole said he began discussing the mat ter with her before his death and final ized the specifics afterward. Funding for the center came from a fund drive for the Charles Kuralt Memorial Project at UNC-CH. The project had two parts: the Charles Kuralt Collection in the UNC-CH Library and the Kuralt Learning Center in the School. In total, the project raised more than $300,000. The center opened to the public May 20 and is open every Tuesday and Thursday from 1-4 p.m. Visitors can arrange special tours at other times for groups of 10 or more by calling the School at (919)962-1204.
