Reagan in excellent mood
Less than 24 hours after being told he had cancer,
President Reagan was described yesterday as being in excellent spirits, optimistic and not dwelling on his illness.
The 74-year-old president spent a restful night at Bethesda Naval Hospital in Washington and was said to be continuing a good recovery from the surgery Saturday, when doctors removed a large intestinal growth that proved to be malignant. His temperature, which had been slightly elevated, was reported as being
Reagan's medical team reported Monday that all the cancerous tissue appeared to have been removed and that chances the president would not suffer a recurrence were better than 50 percent.
Nancy Reagan, making her daily trip to the hospital, was quoted by her press secretary as saying, "I'll be glad when he's home."
Toll climbs in Beirut car blast
The death toll from a car bombing Monday in south Beirut, Lebanon, rose to 14 yesterday as rescue workers digging through a demolished building found three
more bodies and said more victims might be buried under the rubble.
Police feared that more than 13 civilians were caught in the explosion after the bomber, identified by Lebanon's state television as Hisham Abbas, 20, blew up a bridge across the Red Sea during the Brewing the Red Cross flag, near the village of Kirab, Tahrir.
The car, carrying explosives, blew up on the rim of Israel's so-called security zone, which is a buffer ribbon of land stretching across south Lebanon. The land is surrounded by and surrogates in the South Lebanon army militia.
Carlin considering K-State job
Govern. John Carlin confirmed Sunday in Topeka that among the job possibilities he might consider when his term of office ends in January 1887 is the presidency of State University, which becomes vacant a year from now.
"I'm concentrating on completing my term as governor, but I'm not closing the door on any option that might come after my term ends," the governor said. "I will issue a press briefing issued through his press secretary. Michael Swornon."
Sources indicated that Carlin might not apply personally for the KState presidency, but might allow his
Duane Acker, who has held the K-State presidency since he was announced 27 June he will resign for July 1, 1986.
Since Acker's announcement, speculation had surfaced that Carlin, a 1962 graduate of K-State with a bachelor of science degree, might be interested in succeeding Acker.
The organizers of the Live Aid rock concert set up computer banks Monday in London to keep track of an estimated $55 million raised for African famine victims after the final figure was likely to reach $69 million.
$55 million raised by Live Aid
As jubilant fund-raisers tallied the success of Saturday's internationally televised concert, more plaudits poured in for Bob Geldof, the former punk rocker who led the project to raise money for famine-streaked Africa.
Geldof who was astounded to be nominated for a Nobel Prize and pledged to donate any prize money, said Mr. Chang.
Irish Prime Minister Garret FitzGerald said he would ask Parliament to nominate Gelfold for the Nobel Peace Prize a move already made by a Norwegian government. The British legislator said he will seek a knighthood for Gelfold.
Aid officials of the British government were aided by the success of the Live Aid effort, which featured 52 members of the Live Aid team in London and Philadelphia and live television performances for the Union, Yugoslavia, Austria, Japan and West Germany.

A woman filed suit against the Coca-Cola Bottling Co. of Northampton, Mass., Monday claiming she was fired for not wearing a mask.
Amanda M. Blake, 28, of Eastampton, Mass., claims company officials told her she could not work for Coke if her fiance, David J. Cronin, remained an employee of the Pepsi-Cola Bottling Co. of Springfield, Mass.-Hartford, Conn., according to a lawsuit filed in Hampshire Superior Court.

Convicted rapist has setback
Convicted rapist Gary Dotson, who was released from prison in May after the alleged victim said she fabricated the rape charge, was dealt a setback yesterday in Chicago in his efforts to clear his name.
