Beta agonists, the type of medicine cited in the study, is sold as a spray under the brand names Proventil and Ventolin. The study, published last week in the New England Journal of Medicine, said that asthmatics nearly tripled their risk of death with each additional canister of the spray used in a month. A study that warns against overuse of a common asthma medicine has generated concern from people who suffer from asthma, but specialists at KU question the validity of the study's conclusions.

The key to controlling asthma is early intervention, he said. "Someone who has trouble sleeping one night because of asthma needs to be seen the next day without exception, Yockey said. "There is no reason why an asthmatic in 1992 should die from an asthma attack." Laura Rubin, St. Louis senior, said her asthma was diagnosed when she was 13 years old. "Exercise is the most common time that I seem to have a problem," she said. Rubin has not had a severe asthma attack in more than a year, but she often feels tightness in her chest when trying to sleep, she said. "It's not a concern for me because I don't use it to a great extent." she said. Rubin said her allergist told her Monday that beta agonist inhalers were a danger only to people who overused them.

The Associated Press WASHINGTON — President Bush's campaign is set to unleash a television ad in which a former Marine Corps commander attacks Republican Party challenger Pat Buchanan for his opposition to the Persian Gulf War. The ad is the first campaign ad attacking Buchan directly and represents a clear response to his strong, 37-percent finish in the New Hampshire primary. More attack ads using surrogates are planned, a Bush campaign adviser said yesterday. The first ad will feature retired Marine Corps Commandant P. X. Kelley, according to the adviser, who spoke on condition of anonymity. Buchanan was a critic of the U.S. role in the Persian Gulf, and Kelley will be critical of that position in the Bush campaign's ad, the adviser said. Another ad will outline Bush's "reform agenda," advocating welfare initiatives and school choice, the adviser said. Both ads were expected to air today in Georgia, where Buchanan is campaigning hard in advance of that state's March 3 primary. Bush's ads have been avoiding mentioning Buchanan and instead concentrating on the president's experience and challenge to Congress to approve his program by March 20. White House representative Marlin Fitzwater said Monday that the Bush campaign was planning to alter its strategy by using surrogates and ads to counter Buchanan in every state where he mounts a challenge. "We'll take pains to point out differences," Fitzwater said. He said Buchanan had "some pretty strange Bush himself told reporters traveling with him aboard Air Force One enroute to California that there would be ads defining the differences in position between himself and Buchanan.

"I think we'd rather stay in our own court," Weinshel said. Buchanan's ads have sharply criticized Bush for breaking his 1988 new-taxes pledge by approving tax increases in 1990, and suggested he already has abandoned a middle-class tax cut he promised in his State of the Union address last month.
