WASHINGTON — It is a different Ronald Reagan. This president impatiently dismisses the Girl Scout cookie-sale champion of the year so he can get back to plotting intricate troop movements in Iraq. This Reagan gets Syrian President Hafez Assad on the telephone and chews him out in Arabic.
'Saturday Night Live' mocks Bush, others
This president exists only on "Saturday Night Live."

So does this one: As press secretary (the real one) Ron Nessen tries to raise a problem in the Oval Office, this Gerald Ford is swinging at a golf ball with a tennis racket.

Archives celebrates presidential spoofs
The August National Archives, whose next noontime luncheon series speaker will be the biographer of Hugo Black, gave over its stage yesterday to plug a new history called "Saturday Night Live: The First Twenty Years." It's pushing things a bit because the NBC program is now in its 20th season.
He complains that the media are perverting Arkansas' record in education, which was rated 50th in the nation. "I'm proud to say we shot ahead of Alabama last year," says the make-believe Clinton.
Al Franken, a writer, producer and sometime actor on the comedy program, took the easy way out. He showed clips from the show's presidential sketches and talked a little in between. That fit in with the Archives" "Humor and the Presidency" series.
The show started in 1975, the year after Richard Nixon resigned, so it didn't have Nixon to kick around. It made up for it in a 1977 skit that spoofed Nixon's in-depth, five-part interview with David Frost.
Dan Aykroyd, as Nixon, is asked about his childhood. The president recalls with pleasure and punctilious detail his introduction to a two-handed faucet. "You turn the right one and cold water would come out," he said. "You turn the left and it's warm." Said the actor playing Frost: "Nineteen hours of this should be fascinating.
The lecture included not only caricatures of presidents but of men who want to be president. Aykroyd as Sen. Bob Dole, a 1988 presidential contender, has a menacing patter: "I know it, you know it, and I know you know I know it," says Dole in a staccato voice.
Lovitz as Michael Dukakis opens with Dukakis practically disappearing behind the lector and pulling a button that makes him taller than Bush. Bush delivers a platitude and can't think of anything else to say while the moderator tells him he has nearly two minutes to go.
A presidential debate skit featuring Dana Carvey as George Bush and Jon
Bush appeared on the show last Saturday, speaking in Carvey's clipped Bush-persona. "Know him well," said the real Bush. "Bar and I had him up to the White House. Walked off with a pen that had belonged to James Madison. Secret Service beat him up pretty good."
Franken said Bush was pounded harder than any other president because of Carvey's dead-on caricature. Bush took it so well, he once invited Carvey to stay at the White House. The actor entertained the staff after walking into the East Room to the strains of "Hail to the Chief."
Says Dakiks: "I can't believe I'm losing to this guy."
Historians are digging up answers
Exhuming bodies checks history
The Associated Press
HAGERSTOWN, Md., — High-tech tests are inspiring new investigations of the deaths of famous people, including Lincoln assassin John Wilkes Booth, to answer the question "Who dummit" and to see if the history books are right.
Descendants of Booth and two historians have filed a petition in the Baltimore Circuit Court, asking to exhume remains from a city cemetery to see if it really is Booth who is buried there.
Similar investigations already have looked into the deaths of President Zachary Taylor, Louisiana political legend Huey Long and the victims of Colorado cannibal Alferd Packer.

However, a cautionary note is sounded by Clyde Snow, a forensic anthropologist in Norman, Okla., who analyzed bones found in 1985 at the Little Bighorn battlefield in Montana. Far-fetched stories often surround the lives of famous historical figures, he said, and exhumations should only be done if reputable historians believe it could shed light on a certain historical issue.
"I don't know that just because somebody out there has some doubts about what happened that we should jump in and dig people up," Snow said.
Douglas Ubelaker, curator of physical anthropology at the Smithsonian Institution's Museum of Natural History, and colleague Doug Owsley were approached by Booth's relatives and historians who think that another man is buried in Booth's grave and that Booth escaped capture and lived another 38 years before dying in Oklahoma in 1903.
Advances in DNA testing of soft tissue and preserved bone can help provide genetic fingerprints to aid in identification. Ubelaker said.
Also, scientists' knowledge of trauma and post-mortem changes in the body has increased in recent years. Scientists also have sophisticated means of comparing skulls with photographs of the deceased, Ubelaker said. Chemical analysis of bones can determine what a person ate before death, or if they ingested a poison or other chemical.
Forensic scientists can even determine a person's general health before death and any pre-existing medical condition.
"It's kind of a growing trend," Walter Birkby, a forensic anthropologist at the University of Arizona, said of forensic investigations of historical figures.
"Everybody is dying to know if Lincoln had Marfan syndrome," Birkby said, referring to a genetic condition that produces very tall individuals with elongated hands and feet.
Birkby worked on the 1989 forensic investigation of the victims of 19th century cannibal Packer, Packer, who led five people on a gold prospecting trip in Colorado, said in the 1870s that members of the group had been eaten, but only after they had died along the way.
"We were able to determine that he, indeed, murdered them all in one spot at one time." Birkby said.
Teen murdered after taunting Baltimore man
The Associated Press
BALTIMORE — Nathaniel Hurt was known for sweeping the curb twice a day outside his meticulous home in one of the city's most blighted neighborhoods.
In recent weeks, after police charged him with murdering one of a group of youngsters throwing rocks and bottles at his car, he became known instead as a symbol of good intentions driven to violence by kids who mocked his tidy ways.
Hurt doesn't deny shooting 13-year-old Vernon Holmes, Jr., a skinny foster child with crooked teeth who was new to the neighborhood and whom Hurt once hired to work at the snow-cone stand behind his house.
driven to it by teen-agers who started harassing him after he told them to stop throwing rocks at passing buses last month.
But the 61-year-old janitor, who returned to work yesterday for the first time in weeks, claims he was
"He became a marked man for the kids in the neighborhood," said Stephen L. Miles, Hurt's lawyer. Hurt has been charged with murder and is free on $300,000 bail.
Over a period of several weeks, they cut his garden hose, threw garbage in the little paved backyard he keeps immaculate, and regularly knocked over his garbage cans, Miles said.
In the east Baltimore neighborhood dotted by boarded-up houses, Hurt's home stands in stark, immaculate contrast. The fire escape from which he fired the fatal shot carries a fresh coat of black paint. The small, white wooden stand from which neighborhood children sold snowcones is carefully trimmed in blue.
On Oct. 10, Hurt snapped when a 9-year-old boy threw two buckets onto Hurt's fire escape on a dare. Hurt began chasing the boy and his three friends, police said. After another run-in with the boys that day, the children began throwing bottles and rocks at Hurt's car.
According to police, Hurt walked out onto the second-floor fire escape and fired four shots from his .357 Magnum, hitting Holmes in the back as he ran away.
Police arrested Hurt later that day after he barricaded himself in his house and refused to come out. After almost a week in jail, Hurt was bailed out by relatives, neighbors and coworkers.
Hurt, who said he was sorry for the killing, has been forbidden from returning to his neighborhood while on bail and is staying with his sister.
Pet store kittens expose customers to deadly disease
The Associated Press
CONCORD, N.H. — Doctors gave rabies shots yesterday to the first of what could be hundreds of people possibly exposed to the deadly disease by pet store kittens.
About 40 people received shots at Concord Hospital.
And hundreds of people, who might be at risk because they played with kittens at the store, called the hospital and Hitchcock Clinic asking whether they should get shots.
"That's the problem with kittens. They're adorable," Public Health spokesman Steve Tomaczyk said. "People like to handle them."
One kitten died of rabies over the weekend, alerting authorities to the threat. Another three kittens that died this month are believed to have been infected.
Authorities said 32 kittens may have been exposed to rabies at the Concord Aquarium and Pet Store since Sept. 19. All but five kittens were sold.
Health officials were waiting for test results on 14 kittens and searching for nine others that were sold. Five kittens still in the store were not infected. The only way to test an animal for rabies is to kill it and examine its brain.
No cases of rabies in humans have been reported.
Rabies is almost always fatal to people who don't get shots.
As public health officials spread the word about possible infection, doctors geared up for mass immunizations.
People can get rabies by being bitten by an infected animal or having an infected animal's fresh saliva get into broken skin, like a scratch, or into their mouth, nose or eyes.
