Reagan vows not to give in
President Reagan said in
nationally televised news conference
Tuesday night that the United States
would never give in to the terrorists
and called on Shiite hijackers to
release their American hostages with
no conditions.
The press conference followed the
release of three more hostages, two
Americans and a Greek.
Gunman hijacked the Trans World
Airlines jetliner Friday in Athens
with 104 American and 49 other
hostages on board.
The hijackers released more than
60 passengers and crew members in
Algiers on Saturday, leaving 49
American passengers and 'three
cockpit crew members, said T.W.A
spokesman David C. Venz. After the
release, the hijackers forced the plan
to fly to Beirut for a third time where
negotiations for the release of the
hostages and more than a dozen
others who had been transported to
an unknown location began.
The hijackers demanded that 700
Shiite Moslem prisoners in Israel be
freed in return for the hostages.

Airlines pilots ended early Saturday
as a tentative agreement between the
Association of Flight Attendants and
the Air Line Pilots Association was
reached in which both sides claimed
victory. The final hold-up in nego
tiations was ended as the AFA agreed
that the majority of its 9,000 members
who were honoring the pilots picket
line would return to work without
a contract. Richard J. Ferris, United
Airlines chairman, said the airline
had won a two-tiered wage scale that
would make the airline "cost com
petitive" with its rivals.

Tuesday night the House voted to
bar the purchase of any additional
MX missiles in 1986 and to limit
deployment to 40 weapons. The vote
was another setback in the Reagan
Administration's struggle to keep the
MX missile alive. In May the Senate
accepted a proposal that would allow
the purchase of only 12 new missiles
in the fiscal year beginning October
1 and limit the operational force to
50 weapons.
Major banks lower prime rate
For the first time since 1978, the
nation's major banks cut their prime
I feel that this would be an
appropriate way to honor a man who
was universally revered in his posi
tion as senator from North Carolina
and who embodied the trust, admi
ration and respect that he did. His
integrity was not just known
nationally from the time he served
as chairman of the Senate's Water-

2 percent. In six years the benchmark
lending rate has never been below the
1 10 percent mark. The drop in the
j prime rate is expected to stimulate
the nation's economy, ease loan pay
offs and weaken the value of the
dollar in foreign countries, all of
which are expected to help American
businesses.
House limits MX deployment
Five Americans, a Frenchman and
a Saudi Arabian prince made up a
tri-country space shuttle Discovery
crew that lifted off Monday from
Cape Canaveral, Fla. The launch,
scheduled for 7:33 a.m. Eastern
daylight time, was the first launch
ever to include crew members from
three countries.
According to space agency offi
cials, on the first day of the weeklong
mission the crew is to release a
communications satellite for the
Mexican Government. Later in the
week, two other satillites, one for a
consortium of Arab countries, will
be released. The astronauts will also
start experiments in materials science
for West Germany and perform
medical tests with French equipment.

Finally, I feel that naming the new
dorm after him will give students a
person who the can identify with, a
hero of sorts who was known through
out the country. This sort of role
model would be ' much "easier for
students to idenify with instead of an
unknown, although very generous
