44 dead after leftist rebel attack on military base in El Salvador
EL PARAISO. El Salvador — Leftist rebels attacked a strategic army base yesterday, killing 43 soldiers and a U.S. military adviser, the first U.S. advisor to die in fighting in El Salvador's 7-year-old civil war.
The military sent U.S. supplied helicopters and attack planes to fight the rebels who bombed the El Paraiso military base 28 miles north of San Salvador with grenades and mortars.
"There were 250 soldiers inside El Paraiso at the time of the attack, 43 were killed, although the number could rise, and 35 were wounded," said Gen. Adolfo Blandon, chief of the armed forces.
Blandon said an unknown num
ber of insurgents attacked the heavily fortified base about 2 a.m. in fighting that lasted four hours.
Normally 2,000 troops are stationed at the base that protects the Cerron Grande reservoir dam and electrical facilities. At the time of the attack, three groups of 500 soldiers were on patrol and could not return to reinforce the base, Blandon said.
Thatcher opposes Soviet arms proposal
A spokesman for the U.S. Embassy in San Salvador identified the officer as Staff Sgt. Gregory A. Fronius, who arrived Jan. 6 and belonged to the 3rd Battalion, 7th Special Forces, U.S. Southern Command based in Panama.
MOSCOW — British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher yesterday praised Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev's moves to move his society but said she opposed his terms for a treaty banning intermediate-range missiles from Europe.
"I am very well satisfied indeed with my visit so far," said Thatcher, who met with Gorbache for nine hours in the trip that began Saturday. "Mr. Gorbache and I have achieved a very good relationship and been able to continue the same frank dialogue that we began two years ago."
Thatcher said her trust was not yet great enough to agree to Gorbache's proposal for eliminating U.S. nuclear missile mediatorate-missile missiles in Europe.
Gorbachev has dropped his demand that an intermediate-range missile accord be linked to limits on development of the Strategic Defense Initiative. But he is resisting Western demands for elimination of the Soviet advantage in short-range missiles.
Third Marine arrested in embassy scandal
Around the World
WASHINGTON — The former deputy commander of the Marine Corps guards at the U.S. Embassy in Moscow was arrested yesterday as the third suspect in the widening sex-for-secrets scandal that has prompted top-level investigations, the administration said yesterday.

At the same time, the Marine Corps said that eight charges had been filed against another Marine arrested last week. Clr. Arnold
Staff Sgt. Robert Stanley Stufflebeam, 24, of Bloomington, Ill., was arrested as a "possible suspect" in the operation because he had "associations with Soviet women on several occasions" while serving as deputy commander of the Marine Corps guards at the embassy, the Pentagon said.

WASHINGTON — French Premier Jacques Chirac told President Reagan yesterday that "we have confidence" that the United States will not leave Western Europe vulnerable to Soviet short-range missiles if the superpowers agree to remove bigger missiles from Europe.
A senior U.S. official said East-West issues, including arms control, trade and agriculture, dominated the morning session. The session ended with the two leaders announcing the end to a dispute between scientists in each country about patent rights to AIDS testing kits and formation of a joint foundation to research the epidemic disease.
Getting out of bed was the first mistake
MIDLAND, Mich. — Aubura Hudson no doubt wishes he had stayed in bed.
Hudson, 39, said he stopped the car to release the bird. Not wearing a seatbelt, Hudson fell out of the car. The vehicle continued
When he left home Monday morning, he picked up a newspaper from his lawn, hopped into his car and headed for work. The trouble started when he realized that a live bird was inside the newspaper.

While Hudson was chasing his car down the road, his pants fell down. If any neighbors had been peering out their windows, they would have seen Hudson hobbling down the road with one leg in his pants and the other out.
Hudson was treated for minor injuries at Midland Hospital Center and released.

His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, Founder of the Transcendental Meditation Program
Dear Student.
There's something you can do for a short time each day that will improve
every aspect of your life—your grades, your future career, your relationships, everything all at the same time. What's more, it's that our students have experienced the benefits. And you can too.
You'll learn about it soon at a special free lecture on the Transcendental Meditation technique, and regardless of what you've already heard about TM, this entertaining talk will surprise and enlighten you. More than that, it may well change your life.
My name is Kevin Blair. I'm president of the student government at Maharishi International University, where students, faculty and staff work on my MTECH technique. I want to tell you three things about the upcoming lecture:
2 You'll also learn about the vast amount of scientific research that's been done on tmR (more than 350 studies years)
At the lecture, you'll learn how the simple, natural TM technique, which is practiced for a day, brings profound benefit to a day, brings profound benefit to a body, and how these benefits automatically improve one's social behavior, school and job performance, and much more.
1 At the lecture, you'll learn how the simple, natural TM
"Experiencing the unified field through the TM technique really gives me more support of nature. As soon as I began TM, everything became earlier, and my grade-point was on a whole point!" --Sam Boothy

If you really want to know how to improve your grades, your career,and your life, there's an upcoming lecture you shouldn't miss.
And you'll learn that a lot of the research findings are directly relevant to your personal and academic development as a student. Here, for example, is a partial list of results in the field of education:
- increased intelligence
- improved comprehension
increased intelligence
improved comprehension, concentration, and memory
improved comprehension,
- increased speed in solving problems
- increased learning ability
- broader comprehension and ability to focus attention
worldwide over the past 15 years)
increased creativity
- reduced stress and anxiety
- increased happiness
- improved relationships be
- improved academic performance
decreased use of drugs, alcohol, and cigarettes
improved relationships between students and teachers
improved mind-body coordination
- decreased use of drugs,
alcohol, and cigarettes
- increased happiness
- improved athletic performance
Now, I'm sure you'd like to have some of those qualities growing in your life. Well you can.
And the beautiful thing is that these qualities grow naturally,
simply as a result of practicing the TM technique.
improved relationships be
World Peace
Finally, if you are concerned not just with your own future, but also the future of our nation and the world, there's even more reason to attend the lecture.
This is because the TM technique doesn't just help the individual. The coherence generated when people practice TM extends to those who don't. It has been shown that when as little as the square root of one percent of a
population practices the TM program and its advanced aspects, the entire population becomes more orderly, peaceful, and progressive.
"TM is the best antidote to stress I know of.
When individuals are free of stress, they behave more harmoniously. I'm convinced that if people practiced TM, world
peace would be a reality
-Kurleigh D. King

This "Super Radiance Effect" has been demonstrated in communities, cities—even entire nations. This brings great hope for the future of our planet and the age-old problems of world peace may at last have a solution.
If you're wondering how one simple technique can bring so many benefits to mind, body, behavior, and even the world as a whole, I urge you to attend the free lecture. The explanation you'll hear is at once simple, scientific, and profound.
It Works!
"TM is the single most important part of
being a peak performer. It gives you the ability to excel in an environment of stress, to make rapid decisions based on rapid changes, and to do so functioning very well."
Christopher Hegarty, President Hegarty and Associates San Francisco, CA
You'll hear, for example, about the unified field of all the laws of nature as described by modern physics and by ancient Vedic science. And about how the TM technique lets you experience the unified field within your own experience. And because that experience, gained regularly, brings you the support of all the laws of nature.
When you practice TM.
"you can experience the full range of teaching just gaining classroom knowledge, but developing the knower, and that's yourself!"

The main thing, however, is that TM works. I know from my own experience I've been practicing the technique for 6 years, and its made me more relaxed, yet more dynamic and productive. As a result of enjoying greater success—both in and out of the classroom!
Of course, whether you start the TM technique or not is up to you. But doesn't it make sense to at least attend the lecture? If even ten percent of what I've said about this book, it could mean for your achievement and happiness for the rest of your life.

The date and time of the lecture is given below. I
hope you'll be there, and don't hesitate to bring your friends; you'll be doing a great thing for them as well!
Wishing you success in all that you do,
