Desi Arnaz of 'I Love Lucy' dies at home from lung cancer
HOLLYWOOD — Desi Arnaz, the Cuban-born singer-bandleader beloved by generations of TV viewers as Lucille Ball's harassed husband Ricky Ricardo on the "I Love Lucy" show, died of lung cancer yesterday. He was 69.
Arnaz was married to Ball for 20 years, then was divorced in 1960 and became one of television's most successful producers. He died at his Del Mar home in San Diego County. His daughter Lucie Arnaz Luckinbill was reading prayers at his side, publicist Charlie Pomerantz said.
"We are" very elated that he's out of his misery. He suffered a lot. We have prayed for him — being free of pain." Ball said.
Charles Campbell, Arnaz's physician, said his patient had been ill for about a year.
"He died of lung cancer. It was from smoking those Cuban cigars; that's the truth." Campbell said.
"I Love Lucy," which Arnaz produced and also starred William Frawley and Vivian Vance as the Ricar
dos' neighbors, Fred and Ethel Mertz, was one of television's most successful and longest-running shows.
Snowball fight injures seven
LINCOLN, Neb. — What started as a traditional snowball fight between the dormies and the greeks turned into a bottle-throwing, fist-fighting melee involving up to 600 University of Nebraska students, campus police said.
The fight, which broke up early yesterday, left at least seven people injured and more than $1,800 in repairs.
The fight broke out about 8:30 p.m. Monday and was broken up by police about 12:30 a.m. yesterday when the numbers of participants dwindled to about 100, said the counting of the University of Nebraska Police Department.
"At the height of it there were probably 500 to 600 involved." Manning said.
Seven students were treated for injuries that included dislocated shoulders, facial cuts, eye scratches, an ear bite and an injured hand. Manning said,
"It started as a snowball fight between the dormies and the greeks. One thing led to another and a lot of fights broke out. It's a yearly thing. We pretty much don't like each other," Tim Gillis, a freshman member of Delta Upsion, said.
JOHANNESBURG — Soldiers and government officials yesterday began taking census information door-to-door in a condemned black township, raising fears that residents would be forcibly relocated, local activists said.
Township residents fear move
President Pieter Botha's government Monday dismissed black councilman's appeals to save the 10,000-strong community at Oukasie, a 50-year-old township near Brits, 40 miles northwest of Johannesburg.
Government black affairs officials, citing slum conditions and the cost of improvements, said the community must move 15 miles to a new township at Lethabite.
Chicago cleaning up after floods
Chicago may be known as the windy city but in the past few days it has been known as the windy and wet city.
Residents in cities and towns, including Chicago, along the shores of the Great Lakes have started to clean up after facing high tides and strong winds Monday.
Apartment owners along Chicago's lake shore piled sandbags three feet high Monday as they tried to hold back waves surging to 25 feet. Some residents reported that the waves reached as high as the seventh-floor balconies of high-rises on Lake Michigan's shores.
The bad weather also caused delays at Chicago's O'Hare airport and was the cause of at least one small plane accident in Illinois.
College president's trial moved
SPRINGFIELD, Mass. — A judge, citing intense publicity in western Massachusetts, ordered yesterday that the sexual assault trial of a former state college president be moved to Boston.
Judge Raymond Cross said it was "highly improbable" that a jury in Hampden County, where Westfield State College is located, would not be prejudiced by pretrial publicity. He also said that it was probable that students and alumni would be in the jury pool.
A grand jury indicted former Westfield State president Francis J. Pilecki, 52, in June on charges of sexually assaulting two students in 1984. The former administrator resigned effective Aug 31.
