Lopez said the recent discovery of arms shipments to Nicaragua from the Ilopango Military Air Base in San Salvador did not surprise him.
"Huge military planes fly out at that airport all the time," he said. "North American soldiers are seen walking around in San Salvador all the time. Nobody really knows why they are there."
Lopez said that since 1981 the United States had sent more than $2 billion worth of military aid to Duarte's government forces.
"The misconception is that Duarte represents a democracy in El Salvador, and that's not true," Lopez said.
"It's not true that the Communists are backing most of the guerrillas, either," he said.
Lopez said Duarte's forces had relocated more than one million people to refuge camps and then declared that whoever remained in the evacuated areas was a guerilla and would be killed.

because he had nearly normal vision until about six years age.
"I know the basic layout of things and I can remember what cars and buildings look like," he said. "I also have the advantage of knowing the beauty of the sunset, flowers, and even insects — I know what a gnat looks like; I can describe even the smallest insect."

Trig, York, Pa., graduate student, moved to Lawrence in August and is working toward a doctorate in counseling psychology. Trig, 30, lost his vision when he was 23. Before he went blind, he taught high school social studies and psychology in Pennsylvania.
Blind
Trig came to Lawrence a few days before classes with his parents, who helped him find his way around campus, he said.
Another blind student, Joe Trig, said he also was disoriented when he received the news.
His parents left after a few days, but Trig still has a companion and guide — Tristan, a one-year-old black Labrador Retriever who doubles as a seeing-eye dog.
Unlike Turner, who said he preferred a cane, Trig said he liked having a guide dog.
"A dog is much faster," Trig said. "A dog gives you a lot more independence and a lot more dignity—you don't have to tap along the sidewalk when you have a dog."
Blind people have the responsibility to look as competent as possible in order to avoid becoming dependent upon sighted people, he said.
He said that since the dog helped him to look competent, fewer people stopped to offer unnecessary help than when he used a cane.
"The only problem with the dog, is that more people notice the dog than notice me," he said. "If I walk into a restaurant with Tristan, people say, 'Oh look, there's a seeing-eye dog,' they don't even notice me."
He said the converse was true when he used a cane, "When I had the cane, people would say, 'Oh, look there a blind person.'"
Tristan is Trig's first seeing-eye dog, and he has owned him for only about six months.

She said blind students solved the problem of taking notes by asking the professor to say everything written on the blackboard out loud and by asking another student in the class to make a duplicate copy of his or her notes.
Tape recording lectures is another option, but most students prefer to have notes because listening to the entire lecture again takes too much time, she said.
"Both professors and students have been very cooperative in helping out," Michel said.
The center doesn't provide readers for non-academic reading, Michel said. But it does provide students with the names of private and volunteer readers.
Some visually impaired students don't use the center's services but prefer to hire their own readers, she said.
Hasenfus' lawyer calls court illegal
United Press International
MANAGUA, Nicaragua — A lawyer for Eugene Hasentus, the U.S. flier charged with terrorism for supplying arms to U.S.-backed rebels, entered a not guilty plea yesterday and challenged the right of a People's Tribunal to try his client.
"I deny, reject and contradict the accusations presented against him." Sotelo said in a statement filed in court yesterday. "My defendant is not a criminal but a worker for a legally formed air company."
Enrique Sotele Borgen took the opportunity of filing the plea to lambast the People's Tribunal. He denied the charges against his client and argued that the Sandista court trying Hasfenus was incompetent, illegal and partial.
he parachuted from a cargo plane carrying weapons to the rebels, known as contras, is charged with terrorism, criminal association and violation of Nicaragua's public security and order laws.
He faces Nicaragua's maximum penalty of 30 years in prison, and his conviction is considered inevitable.
An aide to Sotelo, Luis Andara Ubeda, read the defense statement to a courtroom packed with patients. Hasenwus was not present.
Hasenfus, captured Oct. 6 after
In brief comments to reporters after he filed the papers, Sotelo demanded an appropriate court be appointed to try Hasenus other than the People's Tribunal, which controlled by the Sandimista Party.
Sotelo did not deny that Hasen fus had made the rebel supply flights.

"Henry Penny" and the "Golden Goose" come to life this weekend in Hashinger Hall's fall play, "Story Theatre."
The play, by Paul Sills, features 10 fables from the Brothers Grimm and Aesop, who are re-lded by a group of eight actors in an imaginative and improvisational style, director Rick Rasmussen said.
Mustausen, who has degrees in directing and sceneography from the University of Kansas, said the cast improvised a great amount of the play and wrote many of the prologues and epiglories for the fables.
"It's so creative," Parsons said.
"The cast goes immediately from
"It's a simple setting, and we use a mixture of costumes from the Renaissance period to modern times." Rasmussen said.
Melissa Parsons, Phoenix, Ariz.
sophomore, and one of the assistant directors of the play, said she thought the play was interesting because of the interaction of the characters on and off stage.
"Legends, fables and myths record the history of mankind, and they have come down to us through history because they tell truths of human traits and fables," he said. "'Story Theatre' takes 10 famous fables and explores our humanness in a theatrical setting."
The eight cast members and two assistant directors change characters for each fable but remain on stage throughout the play.
"You are always on stage — as a tree or something," said Mark Hansen. Prairie Village freshman. He shows through simple characters.
Craig Brock, Marion freshman, wrote all the play *e* music, which he described as thoughtful and diverse.

"I feel that even though these were written hundreds of years ago, they are still part of our culture," he said. "Each eagle represents either a negative or positive side of human nature. They represent the human spirit of survival. The endings are positive."
Mark von Schiemmer, Leavenworth graduate student, and Melanie Davis, Bartvillees, Oklah., freshman, perform in a scene from "Story Theatre."
