Iraq promises to free 120 hostages, some Americans
Iraq yesterday promised to free 120 hostages, including a few U.S. citizens, but U.S. officials criticized Saddam Hussein for his use of the captives and the foreign envoys who have been seeking to free them.
The Associated Press
State Department spokesperson Richard Bouchier said U.S. officials had not been notified yet about plans to free any U.S. citizens. He denounced Iraq's "cynical barring" of captive foreigners trapped by Iraq's Aug. 2 invasion of Kuwait.
Iraiq officials did not say when the 120 would be freed, but they suggested it would be soon. The announcement marked the second time in two months had agreed to release a large group of captives.
And in some of her strongest remarks about the 3-month-old Persian Gulf standoff, British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher warned Saddam that time was running out for a peaceful solution.
Tatcher told British lawmakers they must send the Iraq president the message that "either he remove him or we and our allies remove him by force, and he will go down to defeat with all the consequences.
"He has been warned.
Afterwards, Iraq's information minister, reacted with sarcastic words, saying he was unphysical and the devil was in control.
In a statement carried by the official Iraqi news Agency, Minister Latif Nassafjay Jassim said Thatcher's statements in general on the gulf crisis were true and did not help the office of prime minister.

At the United Nations, diplomats said the United States had drafted a Security Council resolution authorizing the use of U.N. military force against Iraq. If adopted, the measure would be an unprocedure.
But the draft has not been circulated to other Security Council members because Secretary of State James Baker is still trying to line up support for the diplomats, speaking on condition of anonymity.
U.S. planes to leave Philippines
WERE FIGHTING FOR YOUR LIFE
The decision was conveyed to Philippine Foreign Secretary Raul S. Mangapulus by Richard L. Armitage, the presidential special negotiator on U.S. basing arrangements with the Philippines.
WASHINGTON — All U.S. jet fighters based in the Philippines will be withdrawn by September, the Pentagon announced yesterday on the eve of a new round of negotiations about the future of U.S. airlift.
The 48 aircraft will be removed from Clark Air Base along with more than 1,000 Air Force personnel, leaving a U.S. military airlift command unit, training units and special operations forces at Clark, the Pentagon said. Between 7,500 and 8,000 U.S. Air Force personnel are based at Clark.

A leasing agreement about U.S. use of the installations is scheduled to expire in September. Manila wants the U.S. military phased out by then, and the U.S. Army proposed a withdrawal period of 10 or 12 years.
The Associated Press
President Corazon Aquino has set a January deadline for completing the negotiations.
The U.S. statement about removal of the 48 fighter aircraft said that the decision was unilateral and not a result of the base negotiations. It added, however, that the decision was influenced though not dictated by Manila's publicly expressed position that the U.S. aircraft should be withdrawn.

ISO and the Bobs blend music, dance
Kansan staff writer
Bv Jamie Elliott
Dance and music will come together Wednesday, using bodies and voices as versatile instruments to create unique experience for the audience and ear.
ISO, a wildly inventive dance troupe, will team up with a creative a capella quartet, the Bobs, for a KU performance. The best heST as indescribable.
"The show is really hard to describe," said Matthew Stull, a founding member of the Bobs. It could be like my MTV favorite stop-motion stoppiece after piece after piece. There's not a whole lot of time to catch your breath."
The KU performance will be at 8 p.m. Wednesday at Hoch Auditorium, as part of the New Directions Series.
Both ISO and the Bobs have been very successful as individual acts, but began performing together in 1988 after a chance meeting at a Berkley radio station where both troupes were doing interviews.

Stall said the groups worked together on pieces in different ways, either by fitting new music to an established dance, choreographing it and then establishing music or creating music and the舞 at the same time.
Mike Helfner, Concert Series administrative assistant, said the collaborative performance would refresh ideas about music and music.
"Between the two of them, we should get a very experimental, right on-the-edge performance." Heffner said. "ISO was an offshoot of Momix, and they broke away to do more theatrical, more experimental pieces. They have been classified as — it is a merge of acrobatics, classical, modern and vaudeville. It's a high-powered combination."
The Bobs
The members of ISO have choreographed and performed in television commercials and music videos for U2. The Lover Speaks, John Pogarty and Nathan Ely are based on a recording on the choreography for David Bowie's "Glass Spider Tour."
In 1984, the Bobs received its first Grammy nomination for Best Album The Los Angeles Times
described the group as a cross between the Mills Brothers and Devo — a description that Stull said is relatively accurate.
"It's probably fairly appropriate," he said. "We're a vocal group, and in that, we're like the Mills Brothers, they're innovative and wild, like Davo."
For the KU performance, ISO and
the Bobs will perform the collaborative works "Psycho Killer," "The Blind Venetians," "Helter Skelter," and others.
Tickets for the performance are on sale at Murphy Hall box office. Student tickets are available at the SUA ticket office in the Kansas Union. All seats are reserved. Tickets are $7.50 and $6 for students.
