Armenia, Azerbaijan
agree to cease-fire
MOSCOW Armenia and
Azerbaijan took a step Thursday to
ward resolving their bloody fight for
control of the mountainous enclave of
Nagorno-Karabakh by agreeing that an
immediate cease-fire was needed.
A seven-hour meeting between for
eign ministers of the two neighboring
states marked the first high-level effort
to end the fighting since Russia and
Kazakhstan tried to broker a peace sett le
nient in September. Russia's foreign
minister, Andrei Kozyrev, mediated
Thursday's talks.
Fighting began four years ago for
control of Nagorno-Karabakh, an area
populated mainly by Armenians but
located inside the borders of Azerbaijan,
which has controlled the enclave since
1923. More than 1,000 people have
died in the bloodiest ethnic dispute in
the former Soviet Union.
In a four-point communique issued
after Thursday's talks, Armenia and
Azerbaijan agreed on the "necessity for
an immediate cease-fire in the zone of
the Karabakh conflict."
The communique said the two coun
tries had agreed to consider allowing
United Nations peacekeeping forces to
go to the region to help restore order.

Israeli troops and tanks
penetrate U.N. barrier
TYRE, Lebanon Israeli troops
and tanks breached U.N. barricades in
south Lebanon Thursday, going after
Shiite Muslim guerrillas who have been
rocketing Israel. Prime Minister Yitzhak
Shamir said Israel would keep up the
attacks "until we quiet them."
The Israeli incursion, just north of its
self-declared security zone, drew a sharp
protest from U.N. Secretary-General
Boutros Boutros-Ghali, who called for
an immediate pullout. The Bush admin
istration expressed "deep concern."
U.N. sources said it was the first time
since 1985 that Israelis had crossed the
security zone and taken up positions.
Before smashing the U.N. barricades
with a bulldozer, the Israeli troops got
in fist fights with the peacekeepers, a
U.N. spokesman said.
Despite fears that violence would
derail the next round of peace negotia
tions, the State Department said all par
ties had indicated they would be on
hand for talks starting Monday.
Still, there was a threat that fighting
could widen.Syria'smilitary chief. Gen.
Hekmat Shehabi, said on Thursday that
his country would help defend Lebanon
against Israeli "trespassing."

Thornburg hunting
By Anna Griffin
Assistant State and National Editor
Lacy Thornburg doesn't consider
himself an underdog.
Despite recent polls that show former
N.C. Gov. Jim Hunt running ahead of
Thornburg in the race for the Demo
cratic gubernatorial nomination, the
two-term state attorney general remains
confident that his record will carry him
over the top in the May 5 primary.
"Jim Hunt is a tough opponent,"
Thornburg said in an interview Mon
day. "(But) I don't see his candidacy as
one that is invulnerable. He has a record
that he has to be concerned about.
"It rings very hollow to me to be
saying what you're going to do about
the very problems you faced for eight
years and didn't change. Right now
we're talking about the very same is
sues; he had 12 years (as governor and
lieutenant governor) to solve them and
he didn't.
"My record is one of integrity, sin
cerity, honesty and hard work in each of
the branches (of government) and
achievement in each of the branches."
Thornburg served as a member of the
N.C. House of Representatives from
1 96 1 -1 967 and as a state Superior Court
judge from 1967-1983. A UNC and
Mars Hill College graduate, he said his
experience makes him the best candi
date for the job.

delicate balance between industrial
needs and environmental protection,
Thornburg said.
"You don't see businesses and in
dustries coming into a state that ignores
its obligation to the next generation,"he
said. "We want high-paying jobs and
clean industry."
The state's continually poor educa
tion system must be improved and up
graded for North Carolinians to have
any hope of competing in the 1990s
economic world, Thornburg said.
"What you have is a population that
isn't qualified to handle the jobs that are
available," he said. "Most of the labor
intensive jobs have gone offshore. Jobs
that were previously available to the
poorly educated just aren't there any
more. "We have to turn out more trained
people."
To improve the quality of the N.C.
work force, Thornburg proposes ex
panding the state community college
system and offering more technical edu
cation programs, he said.
"We have to beef up the community
college system," Thornburg said.
'TechPrep programs need to be imple
mented in every school across the state."

Richmond County schools, is a pro

from his proposed weekly editor's col

page should strive for," Dunnington
said. "(But) I wonder how an editor's

The attorney general said he had
short- and long-term plans for curbing
the state's rising crime rate. North Caro
lina is becoming a more dangerous place
to live, especially in urban areas,
Thornburg said.
"I would immediately move, with
already approved money, to provide a
maximum number of beds and to in
crease the capacity for confinement
within prison," he said. "That's not an
answer in itself; over the larger term we
have to improve mental health and drug

with the paper."
Nancy Wykle, 1990-91 University
desk editor, also said she did not think
Eisley's weekly editor's column would
be a positive addition to the paper.
'The weekly editor's column sounds
kind of wimpy to me," Wykle said.
Wykle said Eisley's idea of holding
workshops for writers and editors defi
nitely would improve writing within
the paper, although he probably would
have problems getting people to attend
workshops.

Raising the standard of living for
members of the middle and lower classes
also would curb crime, Thornburg said.
"Education and jobs have a major
impact on increases in your prison popu
lation," he said. Only 2 percent of the
state's inmates graduated from college,
while 4 percent to 5 percent of N.C.
inmates have high school diplomas, he
said.
Thornburg said he would encourage
drug awareness programs, such as Drug
Abuse Resistance Education, at the high
school level. As attorney general,
Thornburg helped bring the national
DARE program into N.C. elementary
schools.
Although several state candidates
advocate dropping the positions of state
superintendent of education, labor com
missioner and insurance commissioner
from the election ballot, Thornburg said
the officials needed to be elected.
"I certainly want to see them at maxi
mum productivity," he said. "But I think
these officials should be elected, just
like I am. To think that not electing
them would take the politics out of the
offices is naive."
Although he considered running for
governor in 1984, Thornburg said 1992
presented the perfect opportunity.
"I'd been considering the opportu
nity to run for a number of years," he
said.
"I made the decision to run when it
became obvious there would not be an
incumbent in 1992."

getting people to come," she said.
"There's no incentive to go. The idea is
good, but the implementation may be
difficult.
"Matthew is a great motivator,
though."
Tew also said Eisley's writing work
shops would improve the paper.
"If a story's not well-written, you
won't get your ideas across," he said.
"Writing workshops will help your writ
ing 100 times."
Dunnington said she thought
Wallsten's goal of appointing DTH li
aisons to various campus groups should
be the responsibility of the groups, not
the newspaper.
"That's something the groups should
be doing," she said. "The groups should
have their own public relations people.
"It's good he's indicated the staff is
going to be receptive to these people
(because) sometimes it gets into an 'us
against them' at the paper."
Wykle said she thought Eisley's idea
to increase; graduate s.tude.nt.coverage
was good because of the number of
graduate students on campus.
But she said the proposal would take
work because graduate students usually
read larger papers like The New York
Times.
"That's good because the graduate
students make up a fairly sizable por
tion of our school," she said. 'To get
somebody to read your paper, you've
got to write about something they're
interested in."
But Lutes said Eisley's reaching out
to graduate students was not that impor
tant because most DTH readers were
undergraduates.
"I'd have to say student newspapers
are basically geared for undergradu
ates," she said.
"They're the main readers. I don't
think that's a bad idea, but I don't think
it needs to be a focus."
Tew said he thought Wallsten's plan
to publish a Saturday DTH on home
football game days was one of the best
ideas he had seen in the past four cam
paigns. "I think it's probably the most unique
and innovative idea I've heard in the
past four elections," he said. "It would
make the DTH money, and it would
give sports writers a chance to write
more."
But Wykle said that a Saturday news
paper might sacrifice coverage during
the week and that Wallsten probably
would have a problem finding commit
ted writers.
"My concern with that is would you
be short-changing coverage during the
week to put this paper out?" she asked.
"My other concern would be the time
commitment from writers."
