Souter gains three more votes;
assured of committee backing
Supreme Court nominee David Souter gained three more votes on the Senate Judiciary Committee yesterday, assuring his approval by the panel when it votes today.
The endorsements by Sens. Charles Grassley, R-lowa, Herbert Kohl, D-Wis., and Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., brought to the 10 number on the 14-member panel publicly in favor of Souter's nomination. None had come out against him by late last night.
40,000 U.S. troops will leave Europe beginning in October
Three liberal Democrats not on the committee, Sens. Bill Bradley, D.N.J.; Frank Lautenberg, D.N.J.; and Barbara Mikulski, D.Md., have filed a motion to base, based on his lack of an abortion position,
The United States will begin withdrawing 40,000 troops from Europe next month and start closing down units in January. Defense Secretary Dick Cheney said yesterday.
Cheney said his decision was made in consultation with the NATO allies and was in anticipation of a 23-nation Conventional Forces in Europe agreement being reached by year's end to reduce substantially troops and military equipment across Europe.
The unilateral pullout of troops from Europe is the largest by the United States since the mid 1980s, when the administration of President Bush restructured the U.S. commitment to Europe.
The decision, while not directly related to the buildup of U.S. forces in the Persian Gulf area, would give the Pentagon flexibility in fielding troops to relieve U.S. troops in the gulf region.

Senate votes approval of family planning bill
WASHINGTON - The Senate voted yesterday to require federally supported family planning clinics to notify parents of teen-age girls who seek abortions.
The Associated Press
The action came on an amendment to a bill renewing federal family planning assistance, which emerged as the latest battleground in the political war over abortion.
The bill was already under a veto threat, however, and the vote was one in a series of conflicting and confusing Senate actions that left the bill facing an uncertain future.
A vote to limit debate fell 10 short of the majority to 60 votes, dismissing prospects of any further debate.
The Senate approved by a large margin another amendment Tuesday evening that would remove Bush administration regulations prohibiting the use of abortions to any information or counseling involving abortion
The result was a Senate bill that contained provisions pushed by both anti abortion and pro-abortion groups.
In the House a similar version, extending the life of family planning services provided through Title 10 of the Public Health Service Act of 1970, was approved by the Energy and Commerce Committees to offer a social Senate provisions on abortion. The clinics offer family planning and health services to the poor
The family planning act's authorization expired in 1985, but services have been financed by Congress each year since then through continuing resolutions, or catcatch spending measures.
The Senate's vote Tuesday night to end the administration's prohibition on abortion counseling provided pro-choice advocates with a surprisingly large 62-vote majority.
Senate Minority Leader Bob Dole, R-Kan., an abortion protester, voted with pro-choice advocacy in support of the amendment, producing an initial 63:57 vote. But more than an hour after the vote was taken, Dole asked that his recorded vote be changed to "no."
Dole, who arrived late for the vote, simply made a mistake, said his press secretary, Walt Riker.

Director says Perlman to play no 2nd fiddle
World-famous concert violinist to play at loch
Thursday, September 27, 1990 / University Daily Kansan
By Jamie Elliott Kansan staff writer
Izthak Perim, internationally known violinist, scheduled to perform at KU for the first time in May. He will appear on Wednesday in Hoche Arena.
Jacqueline I. Jones, director of the KU Concert Series, said Perman's past performances at KU was memorable.
"Last time he was here, the response from the audience was just overwhelmed." Davis said. "He was standing 1 stance listening and enjoying the warmth of the response.
Davis s that she tried to book Perlman st year but that she was placed on waitlist for this year.
"He 'as and chooses where he wants' go," she said. "It was attracted for him to come here and has family friends in Lawrce."
Peteman also will perform at the University of Nebraska and the University of Illinois on this tour. Appearing with him in concert will be prestant Samuel Sanders. For 30 years Sanders has performed with such stars as Jean-Pierre Rampal, Yo Vo Beverly Sills and Jessie McNary.
Gregory Fried, conductor of the University Orchestra, said he planned to attend the concert.
Itzhak Perlman
"He is one of the finest violinists who ever lived," Fried said. "He's a first-rate artist."
Since coming into the international spotlight after an appearance on the "Ed Sullivan Show" at age 14, Perlman has performed with every major orchestra in the world and has won several Grammy Awards.
In November 1987 he teamed up with the Israel Philharmonic for concerts in Warsaw and Budapest, giving listeners in Eastern Bloe countries the first performances by Perlman and the orchestra. Perlman and the Israel Philharmonic also perform at the Soviet Union last spring.
For the University of Kansas performance, Perlman and Sanders will start with "Sonata in G Minor: Devil's Trill" by Tartini. They also will play "Sonata No. 1 For Violin and Piano" by Giuseppe Verdi in major for Violin and Piano, op. 100." by Drorak. The rest of the program will be announced.
be surprised if Perlman, a baseball fanatic, eelled out baseball game scores between numbers.
During his last KU performance, then-reliief pitcher Dan Quisenberry presented Perman with an autographed Royals baseball.
Davis said the audience should not
Although that is unlikely to happen at Wednesday's concert, Davis said Perlman's music should keep the audience more than content.
