NEWS SUMMARY
Date: 28 September 1996
International 3-7 THIRD DAY OF MIDEAST CLASHES The Israeli police stormed into Jerusalem's Al Aksa Mosque compound to disperse stone-throwing youths on a third day of violence, which the Israeli Premier attributed to ''cynical manipulation.'' 1 HOPES FADE FOR LASTING PEACE News analysis: The violence has deeply shaken assumptions about lasting peace in the Middle East and ended the hopes of the Clinton Administration for a quiet foreign policy before the election. 6 Bitter recriminations were exchanged at the United Nations. 6 ISLAMIC REBELS CAPTURE KABUL Fundamentalist Islamic rebels captured the Afghan capital, Kabul, promising to impose strict Islamic rule and hanging a former President in one of their first acts of retribution. 1 HUNGARIANS GIVEN FALSE HOPE Newly released documents on Radio Free Europe broadcasts in 1956 confirm that commentators encouraged the Hungarians to rise up against the Soviets in the false hope that they would get help. 3 ITALIANS DEBATE BUDGET In a sign of its determination to join the first round of countries entering Europe's monetary union, Italy's center-left Government began debate on a budget that would effectively halve the state deficit. 3 PROTESTS IN ARGENTINA In the largest protest so far against the economic policies of President Carlos Saul Menem, striking labor unions and a disgruntled public brought Argentina to a halt. 4 ELECTIONS CALLED IN JAPAN Prime Minister Ryutaro Hashimoto of Japan dissolved Parliament, setting the stage for new national elections that may reconfigure Japanese politics. 4 THREAT FROM NORTH KOREA North Korea warned that rising tensions over the grounding of its submarine off South Korea last week might lead to war, and it suggested that it might have to attack. 4 ARMENIAN CALLS FOR RESISTANCE The leader of Armenia's opposition urged followers to put up quiet resistance, calling the Government an ''illegal power'' that stole this week's presidential elections. 5 Beijing Journal: Zhao Ziyang's days of internal exile. 4 National 8-12 NO TO PAC MONEY, BUT... While some members of Congress loudly and proudly reject money from Political Action Committees or PAC's, they still accept large donations from businesses in their districts and from companies whose fates are affected by their legislative decisions. 1 WEIGHING ELECTION IN ALABAMA As the Presidential election approaches, many Alabama residents are weighing their often disdainful feelings for President Clinton against the relative prosperity of their lives under a Democratic administration. 8 CAMPUS INCREASES SECURITY A rash of armed robberies of students on the streets surrounding the University of Pennsylvania campus has shaken students and prompted college officials to beef up security at the Philadelphia school. 8 DOLE'S TIME TO LISTEN Bob Dole's ''Listening to America'' forums, often on a topic like his economic plan, have become a dominant component of his effort to unseat President Clinton. 10 ETHICS COMMITTEE'S ACTION So far, nobody outside the House ethics committee knows just what the committee meant when it questioned whether Speaker Newt Gingrich had provided its investigation with ''accurate, reliable and complete information.'' 9 KEMP'S CALIFORNIA BLITZ Jack Kemp began a busy four-day campaign swing through California, part of what aides sought to portray as an intensive effort to put President Clinton on the defensive in a critical electoral battleground. 11 CLINTON TAKES ON TEXAS President Clinton stormed through Texas campaigning for Democratic Congressional candidates and hoping to beat longhorn-size odds by carrying the state for his party for the first time since 1976. 11 CBS'S CAMPAIGN PLAN CBS announced its plan for offering free television time to the Presidential candidates for ''unfiltered'' pronouncements on campaign issues. The network will offer free radio time as well in an effort to reach a broader, more varied audience. 11 CRASH CALLED PILOT ERROR The Colombian Government said that the crash of an American Airlines jet that flew into a mountain near Cali in December resulted from pilot errors. 12 Metro Report 25-29 SUNY AT A DISCOUNT? Airlines do it. Hotels do it. Phone companies do it. They all offer off-peak pricing -- discounts to customers who use their services at less crowded times. Now the State University of New York, faced with declining enrollment at some of its campuses and pressures to pay more of its own way, is trying the idea at its two-year colleges. 1 NEW DISCLOSURE ON BOMB TESTS Just like the T.W.A. plane that crashed off the coast of Long Island 10 weeks ago, almost every airliner now in service in the United States has probably been used in drills for bomb-sniffing dogs sometime in the last two years, Federal Aviation Administration officials concede. 1 Business Digest 37 Arts/Entertainment 15-21, 24 Art as a tool for change. 15 Film: ''Beyond the Clouds.'' 15 ''Irma Vep.'' 16 ''Salut Cousin!'' 16 Music: Honoring Marilyn Horne. 20 Fred Hersch at Merkin Concert Hall. 24 Television: ''Early Edition.'' 21 ''Common Law.'' 21 ''With God on Our Side.'' 21 Sports 30-35 Baseball: Yanks lose to Red Sox; Cone to start Game 1 of playoffs. 31 Basketball: Calipari upgrades the Nets. 31 Column: Rhoden on Yankees and Mets 31 Hockey: Islanders sign Palffy. 34 Obituaries 13 Pavel Sudoplatov, Soviet spy chief at the height of the Cold War 13 Najibullah, former Soviet-backed president of Afghanistan 5 Editorials/Op-Ed 22-23 Editorials Mr. Gingrich's troubles deepen.
