Around the World Explosion near Botha's home injures one, destroys bus stop
CAPE TOWN, South Africa — A bomb exploded yesterday in a bus stop shelter near the residences of President Pieter W. Botha and several Cabinet members, slightly injuring a woman, the government and witnesses said.
A spokesman for Pretoria's Bureau for Information said the explosion outside the suburban estate where Botha and at least six Cabinet members have homes was caused by a limpet mine, an explosive designed to cling to the hulls of ships and used in previous terrorist bombings in South Africa.
"At about noon today, an explosion occurred at a bus shelter in
Main Road, Newlands. The roof of the bus shelter was blown off and a few of the windows of surrounding houses were shattered by the shock waves," the government bureau said.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the blast, the third bombing in South Africa and the third in Cape Town since a bomb attack occurred by Both on June 12 to quell a wave of racial and political unrest.
Authorities have blamed the outlawed African National Congress, fighting to topple the whitehead government and its apartheid policies of racial discrimination, for many of the previous attacks.
Cosmonauts head for new space station
MOSCOW — Two cosmonauts aboard a new Soyuz 2-space-craft rocketed into the night sky over Soviet Central Asia early yesterday and headed for the new Mir space station and a stay in orbit that is expected to last at least five months.
Cosmonauts Yuri Romanenko, a veteran of two previous space flights, and Alexander Lavekin, an engineer making his first trip into space, were feeling well, the Soviet news agency Tass said.
The cosmonauts will dock with the orbiting Mir station two days after liftoff. The Mir, whose name means peace, was launched in February 1986 and is to be the base for a permanent manned Soviet space station, now the chief goal of the Soviet space program.
It was the second Soviet spaceflight since the explosion of the U.S. shuttle Challenger a year ago. It also was the second Soviet launching shown live on television.
Chinese editor convicted in crackdown
PEKING — A Chinese editor accused of calling for the overthrow of the Communist Party was sentenced to seven years in prison, the China Legal News said yesterday. He is the first person convicted in a crackdown on capitalist influences, the newspaper reported.
The newspaper said Liu De, 29, an editor of the Jiannan Literature and Art journal in Mianyang, a city about 900 miles southwest of Peking, was found guilty of "counterrevolutionary" activities.
Liu's conviction was the first reported in a month-old government campaign against
"bourgeois liberalism," the popular euphremism for capitalist tendencies.
The crackdown was launched in response to nationwide student demonstrations for democracy in December. At least 19 people have been arrested in connection with the protests.
The campaign against Western influences has prompted the resignation of Communist Party chief Hu Yiobang, the expulsion of three prominent intellectuals from China, and the undetermined number of officials, including propaganda chief Zhu Houze.

Aid could end if leader quits, officials say
Calero.
Cruz, one of the three chief leaders of the rebel umbrella group based in Miami, has threatened for days to resign because of dissatisfaction with United Nicaraguan Opposition military elements, led by Adolfo
WASHINGTON — Several congressmen said yesterday that they contra leader Arturo Cruz privately that his expected resignation from the rebel leadership probably would spell the end of U.S. military aid to the anti-Sandinista forces.
Rep Mike Andrews, D-Texas, said a resignation by the more moderate Cruz would deal a serious blow to President Reagan's request for $105 million in military and economic aid for the contras during fiscal year 1988.
Andrews was among those who met with Cruz, and voted for Reagan's request last year for $100 million to the contras, a CIA-formed force fighting to overthrow Nicaragua's leftist Sandinista government.
Reinstatement of doctor with AIDS upheld
CHICAGO — A Cook County Hospital panel yesterday upheld the restatement of a doctor with acquired immune deficiency syndrome in a case that is pitting the experts against the county board.
mittee yesterday approved the reinstatement.
The Cook County Board earlier this week suspended the doctor, whose identity was not disclosed, and reinstated him Wednesday at the recommendation of the hospital's Peer Review Committee. The hospital's Joint Conference Com
the director of the Illinois Department of Health on Wednesday criticized the suspension of the doctor and denounced Cook County Board President George Dunne for demanding all hospital staff be tested for AIDS.
The full county board, which could overrule the hospital groups, will meet Monday and make a final decision.
