Head of Detroit News Hints at Going Public
Date: 27 February 1985

Kenneth Gilpin
As president of the 112-year-old Evening News Association, corporate parent of The Detroit News, Peter B. Clark has his hands full. In the last year the closely held company, controlled by descendants of James E. Scripps, has been a scene of unrest among dissident shareholders. In December the company spent $10 million to buy back 40,000 of its 484,000 shares to pacify the dissidents, who wanted more liquidity for their holdings.

DANIEL SCHORR WEIGHS MERITS OF CABLE TV
Date: 27 February 1985

Nine years ago this week, Daniel Schorr, one of the best-known network correspondents in America, was relieved of his duties as a CBS reporter after he passed a House intelligence report to a newspaper. Almost 60 years old, a newsman with a reputation for tough reporting and personal abrasiveness, he was, many said, finished in the broadcast world. This week, after almost five years as senior correspondent of the Cable News Network, the 68-year-old Mr. Schorr compared his current life on cable to his former one on broadcast television, and he found sharp differences between the two. ''CBS can spend all its day and its resources for a polished half-hour of news in the evening,'' he said. ''CNN scrambles to keep up. The comparison in on-air quality between them would obviously be invidious, but it would not be right. If CBS were told to go on 24 hours a day with news, I'm not sure how they would do.''

ISRAEL BARS BEIRUT-BASED JOURNALISTS FROM ENTERING SOUTH LEBANON

The Israeli Army today banned Western journalists based in Beirut from entering territory it controls in southern Lebanon. The order came as the Israelis imposed a dusk-to-dawn curfew on southern Lebanon in the sixth day of what Defense Minister Yitzhak Rabin of Israel called an ''iron fist'' crackdown on Shiite Moslem-led resistance to the occupation. ''Journalists who will attempt to arrive from Beirut and from other areas in Lebanon which are not under I.D.F. control will not be allowed to cross into areas where the I.D.F. is currently deployed,'' the Israeli General Staff said in a letter hand-delivered to the Tel Aviv bureau of The Associated Press to be relayed to journalists here. I.D.F. stands for Israeli Defense Forces. ''Recently, I.D.F. checkpoint commanders have been issued strict orders to prevent the crossing of journalists from the north into areas in the south under I.D.F. control.'' the letter said.

AMERICANS WANT TO OWN A HOME, DESPITE RISING COST
Date: 28 February 1985

THE American household is changing, but the strength of its dream of owning a house remains undiminished. In an age of high interest rates and high construction costs, the circumstances of much of the population - smaller families, fragmented families or no family at all - would seem to favor owning smaller, easier-to- maintain condominiums or cooperatives or living in rental apartments. But the prospect of owning and living in a freestanding house on its own land is an enduring element in American aspirations. According to a recent New York Times/CBS News Poll and interviews with owners and renters across the country, house ownership is still a goal of a majority of Americans, as it was of earlier generations. ''I'm old-fashioned,'' said Eddie Mulholland of Jefferson City, Mo. ''I believe a house is the family dream. My goals in life have always been to get a college education and then get a family and a house.''

FRANCE IS WARMING TO 'STAR WARS' IDEA
Date: 27 February 1985
Foreign Minister Roland Dumas of France described the space-based defense plan of the United States today as having ''seductive elements'' for public opinion because, he said, it replaces an offensive nuclear strategy with a defensive one. After previous French criticism, the remarks - while falling short of an endorsement - represented a more favorable public statement on the research aspects of the program, which is known officially as the Strategic Defense Initiative and has been popularly dubbed ''Star Wars.'' Britain has given its backing to the plan, and West Germany has offered qualified endorsement. There has been no support for eventual testing or deployment of the proposed space-based defense system.

ARMS NEGOTIATOR URGES PERSISTENCE
Date: 27 February 1985
The Reagan Administration's new chief arms control negotiator said today that the United States and the Soviet Union ''must try to find a formula under which we can live together in dignity'' even though the negotiations were likely to be difficult. In his first public comments since being named to head the Geneva bargaining team, the negotiator, Max M. Kampelman, told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee that although the Soviet Union was a ''repressive'' and ''aggressive'' society, the United States ''dares not and cannot blow the Soviet Union away.'' The negotiations resume in Geneva on March 12. ''We cannot wish it away,'' he said, arguing for the necessity of pursuing negotiations. ''It is here and it is militarily powerful. We share the same globe. We must try to find a formula under which we can live together in dignity. We must engage in that pursuit of peace without illusion but with persistence regardless of provocation.''

SPACE AGENCY REACHES AGREEMENT WITH AIR FORCE ON SHUTTLE FLIGHTS
Date: 27 February 1985
AP
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration, worried about its dwindling launching business, has succeeded in persuading the Air Force to book one-third of all space shuttle flights. In return, the space agency will drop its opposition to an Air Force plan to develop and build 10 single-use rockets to be used, in competition to the shuttle, for two satellite launchings a year, NASA's Administrator, James M. Beggs, said today. As part of the agreement, the Air Force will be able to get shuttle launchings ''on demand,'' should an emergency arise, he said. Mr. Beggs, who was quoted in a published report Monday as criticizing the Air Force for what he called ''a heavy- handed scheme to give the shuttle a black eye,'' told a Senate subcommittee that the account ''was two weeks stale.'' Had it been updated, he said, ''it would have read differently.''

Date: 27 February 1985
International Pakistan's leadership was rebuffed in National Assembly elections as the voters turned out of office seven Cabinet aides of President Mohammad Zia ul-Haq. A major reason for the defeats was opposition to nearly eight years of martial law under General Zia. (Page A1, Column 5.) The trial of Klaus Barbie for crimes against humanity is expected to start late this year. Lawyers say the trial of Mr. Barbie, the former Gestapo chief in Lyons, France, will focus on three charges instead of the eight originally announced and on 800 of the Jews he ordered killed.
