	SACRAMENTO, Calif. (UPI) -- A judge who takes his politics seriously
has banned Pat Paulsen, the comedian who has made a second career of
running for president, from the California Republican primary ballot.
	Sacramento Superior Court Judge James Ford ruled Tuesday that Paulsen
is not a serious candidate.
	``I do not want to reduce the campaign for an important office like
president of the United States to some kind of farce,'' Ford said.
	Ford's ruling supported Secretary of State March Fong Eu, who had
said Paulsen is not a ``generally recognized candidate,'' a requirement
for the ballot.
	Paulsen, who has run for president in every election since 1968, has
advocated an invasion of Canada and proposed stopping crime in the
streets by ``eliminating a lot of streets -- we have too many already.''
	``While people may be amused and enjoy Mr. Paulsen's campaign,'' Ford
said, ``(that) does not mean he has significant support by anyone who
wants to see him president of the United States or eliminate all our
streets or go to war against Canada.''
	Paulsen was campaigning in Florida and did not attend the court
hearing. His lawyer, John Mounier Jr., argued that Paulsen is a 
``generally recognized candidate.'' Mounier said Paulsen had been on the
primary ballots in Louisiana, New Hampshire and Kansas and had done
fairly well.
	Paulsen introduces himself on the front of campaign fliers: ``They
say that only a fool would want to run against George Bush and I am
ready to accept that challenge.''

	NEW YORK (UPI) -- Arkansas Gov. Bill Clinton, sweeping primaries
across the country, sounded very much like he had the Democratic
nomination sewed up Tuesday night, telling supporters to reach out to
other Democrats and unify the party.
	``Tonight every person who voted in the Democratic primary voted for
change,'' Clinton told supporters at a victory party at a New York City
hotel.
	``Reach out to those who did not vote for me but voted for change,''
he told his supporters and campaign workers. ``We want to be their
campaign, too.''
	Clinton compared the bruising New York primary to ``a ride on the
Coney Island Cyclone.''
	``But I gotta admit, I had a ball,'' he said.
	Clinton was winning the New York primary with about 40 percent of the
vote, followed by former Massachusetts Sen. Paul Tsongas, who ran a
strong second, despite having suspended his campaign two weeks ago.
Insurgent Jerry Brown ran third.
	Clinton, beginning to take aim at the November election and the
liklihood he will be the Democratic nominee against Bush, underscored
his campaign theme of diversity and unity.
	``From Manhattan, Kan., to Manhattan island, people said ... we want
our country to win again, to be one again,'' Clinton said. ``People
aren't getting those things from George Bush.''
	``Together we did what we set out to do,'' he said. ``We proved that
all kinds of people were aching to come together again ... black and
Hispanic, Jew and Gentile, man and women ... we all voted for the same
thing ... change.''
	Invoking the ``you gotta believe'' slogan of the 1969 ``miracle''
Mets, the New York baseball team that surprised the nation by winning
the World Series, Clinton said, ``You gotta believe ... we can be
together again.''
	And he called on politicians and the public to ``abandon the terrible
ethics of the 80s'' that he said ``savaged the whole fabric of our
society.''
	Taking note of the public anger at politicians, he called on those in
office to give up their perks and privileges, he said those who would
lead must show that they can do more with less.
	Outlining a politics of inclusion, Clinton cited Martin Luther King 
``gunned down 24 years ago this week'' as a guiding spirit for his
politics.
	``He taught me the importance of unity and community,'' Clinton said
of King, ``of the power of words to elevate. Martin Luther King spoke
across the lines of race and region.''

	WASHINGTON (UPI) -- White House press secretary Marlin Fitzwater was
back on the job Monday after a two-week absence, dismissing rumors that
he planned to quit.
	While Fitzwater enjoyed time off in Bermuda and his hometown of
Abilene, Kans., reports surfaced that he was unhappy with ``disarray''
in the White House under the new leadership of chief of staff Samuel
Skinner.
	Asked about the reports, Fitzwater replied: ``You just don't win by
talking about it. For me it's history.''
	But the presidential spokesman was smiling and ready to jump back
into the fray, saying he would ``jump in the water and get wet'' after
announcing the time of his daily news briefing.
	Bermuda he said was fine, but there's no place like home and the care
he got from his father and stepmother in Abilene.
	President Bush was plainly irritated at his Rose Garden news
conference last Friday in responding to questions about reports of
disarray in his re-election organization and its ties to the White House
staff.
	``In my view,'' he told reporters, ``Marlin will return in great
spirits on Monday.'' He added that Fitzwater ``has my full confidence.''
	Fitzwater has been White House spokesman for the past 5 1/2 years. He
served previously as Bush's press secretary when Bush was vice
president.
	The president has brushed off reports that Fitzwater was leaving the
staff as ``ridiculous.''
	Skinner also has denied there is any schism with the press operation.

	TOKYO (UPI) -- Prime Minister Kiichi Miyazawa expressed surprise and
shock Sunday over the stabbing death of the chairman of the powerful
House of Representatives Budget Committee.
	Police said Shinjiro Yamamura, 58, died of stab wounds to his neck
and chest. His 24-year-old daughter, Kirio Yamamura, was arrested on
suspicion of killing her father.
	Yamamura ``was a very loyal man,'' Miyazawa said of the veteran
lawmaker who helped his government pass a $112 billion fiscal 1992
budget in the Diet, Japan's parliament, Thursday.
	Miyazawa said Yamamura, a lawmaker with the ruling Liberal Democratic
Party from Chiba Prefecture, was to have left Monday for North Korea as
head of an LDP mission to attend Wednesday's 80th birthday celebrations
for North Korean President Kim Il Sung.
	Yamamura, who was to carry a letter from Miyazawa to the North Korean
leadership, died at his home in Sawara, 45 miles west of Tokyo,
officials said.
	Police knew of no motive for the killing, but Yamamura's widow told
them Kirio, who was found wandering nearby in her pajamas, had been
undergoing psychological treatment at a hospital.
	LDP Vice President Shin Kanemaru, who made a controversial trip to
North Korea in September 1990 with Yamamura in a bid to step up dialogue
with the communist country, said Yamamura's death was ``a big loss'' for
Japan.
	``He was really a gutsy politician,'' said Kanemaru, referring to the
crucial role Yamamura played in winning the release of hostages from a
hijacked Japan Airlines jetliner in April 1970.
	Yamamura, then parliamentary vice transport minister, volunteered to
fly to North Korea after Japanese Red Army members hijacked the plane to
Pyongyang.
	He won a seat in the lower house for the first time in 1964 and was
re-elected nine times. He lost a re-election bid in 1976 amid the
fallout from the Lockheed Corp. payoff scandal, but regained his seat in
1979.
	Yamamura served as minister of agriculture, forestry, and fisheries,
and as minister of transport.
	Last year he was appointed Budget Committee chairman.

Note: (editors: this substitutes for story slugged bc-bush-radio)

	WASHINGTON (UPI) -- President Bush, in the latest installment of his
election-year radio show, made a pitch Saturday for Wisconsin's new
welfare reform program that permits the state to reduce payments to
unwed mothers.
	In a five-minute address, Bush said Wisconsin's landmark plan could
be a model for the nation. But Democrats warned that the controversial
measure could spark racial discord.
	Sen. Patrick Moynihan, D-N.Y., in delivering the Democratic response
to Bush's pre-taped remarks, told the president: ``Don't let politics
drive this thing. You will drive us into a swamp of racial division and
bitterness.''
	Moynihan noted that a third of the children born this year will be on
welfare before they reach age 18. He said most will be minorities.
	Bush had given weekend radio addresses from the White House before,
but he began them on a weekly basis last month in an effort to better
get out his message and to counter reports of a White House in election-
year gridlock.
	With much fanfare Friday, Bush granted Wisconsin a waiver from
federal welfare regulations so it could implement its so-called 
``bridefare'' program.
	The initiative would cap benefits for single mothers with more than
one child, but increase payments if she married. There are also
requirements for parents to attend parenting and sex education classes.
	The president said he was not prepared to offer any proposed federal
welfare reforms, but encouraged states to seek their own changes and to
examine the Wisconsin plan for possible assistance.
	In his radio address, the president said: ``We want a welfare system
that breaks the cycle of dependency ... before poverty becomes a family
legacy.
	``Our goal is to build a system of welfare that will encourage self-
respect, build strength of character, and develop to the fullest each
individual's potential,'' he said.
	The president concluded his remarks Saturday, telling listeners: 
``Thank you for listening, and God bless America.''
	Moynihan completed his address with an appeal to Bush to ``drop the
subject'' of welfare reform, at least until after the election. He said,
``God help America if this doesn't stop.''

	WASHINGTON (UPI) -- President Bush called him ``a hero, a man of great
strength, courage, great heart.'' He was referring to a teacher and in
the administration's estimation, the most exceptional teacher of the
year, Thomas Fleming of Detroit.
	The soft-spoken Fleming, 59, who was inspired by the Bible to read
after dropping out of school, did not have much to say, as he stood by
Bush in the White House Rose Garden, among teachers, family members and
administrators.
	``I accept this honor on behalf of the teachers of America,'' the
Fleming said, graciously thanking his host.
	Bush has made a 'teacher of the year' citation since he was elected
to highlight the importance of the classroom and his commitment to
education. But the award, a glass paperweight in the shape of an apple,
typically stirs controversy, with critics charging Bush is not the self-
proclaimed ``education president'' he promised to be.
	Nonetheless, the friendly crowd, including Saturday Night Live
comedian A. Whitney Brown, a former student of Fleming's, was on hand in
the warm sunlight to confer recognition, not open a battle.
	Asking Brown to stand and be recognized, Bush quipped, ``I'm glad you
didn't bring Dana Carvey,'' the comedian who regularly impersonates Bush
on the show.
	Fleming, who went on to earn a high school equivalency degree, a
bachelor's degree and master's degree in education, has taught history,
government and geography to children, 12 to 16, at the Juvenile
Detention Center in Washtenaw County, Mich., outside Detroit.
	But Bush said Fleming offers considerably more. Like other good or
great educators, Fleming, he said, provides leadership and inspiration
for learning among youngsters reared in broken homes or amid poverty.
	``Every day Tom Fleming see the heart of the problems we face,'' Bush
said in reference to the intrusion into the classroom of life's harsh
realities. ``Tom doesn't want the moon for his kids. He want's something
more important, the future,'' Bush said.
	Bush said Fleming's commitment and methods underscored the powerful
value of teachers.
	``By teaching our kids what we've learned and by teaching them to
dream teachers protect the treaures of our past and the promise of our
future,'' he said.
	``The more you know, the more you're worth,'' Bush said. ``There's no
distinction between who you are and what you do.''

	LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (UPI) -- Authorities searched in Texas for an
Arkansas prison inmate who hijacked a plane while on furlough, causing
Gov. Bill Clinton to suspend the program and begin an investigation.
	Charles Lloyd Patterson, 47, chartered the single-engine Cessna 172
at the Pine Bluff airport last Thursday. About 15 minutes after takeoff,
the pilot said Patterson pulled a gun and put a bag over his head.
	The FBI and state police said Patterson flew the plane to an airport
at Carlisle, Ark. where he pushed the pilot out, and took off for
Batesville, Ark. He allegedly stole a car there and drove to the home of
a former business associate where he stole cash and a small-caliber
handgun.
	Authorities found the plane Friday at a small airport in Sulphur
Springs, Texas, 70 miles northeast of Dallas. He told airport
authorities he would return for the plane, but reportedly bought a bus
ticket to Dallas that later was exchanged for a ticket to Fort Worth.
	FBI Special Agent Ron Wolfe said Tuesday the search for Patterson was
concentrating in Texas. ``He has a large numbers of friends and
associates in Texas,'' he said.
	Patterson, who had been working as a clerk at the prison system's
diagnostic center, was serving 40 years for a variety of charges,
including conspiracy to commit murder. He was released on furlough April
6 and was due back at the prison last Friday. The plane was hijacked
about 4 p.m. on Thursday.
	On Friday, Clinton -- who was in the state on a break from his
presidential campaign to mend his voice -- suspended the furlough program
and ordered the State Board of Correction to conduct a review of the
program's procedures.
	Four years ago, Democratic presidential nominee Michael Dukakis,
former governor of Massachusetts, was attacked in Republican ads for
assaults on a Maryland couple by Willie Horton, a Massachusetts prison
inmate released on furlough.

	BRASILIA (UPI) -- President Fernando Collor de Mello completed a
cabinet shuffle Thursday unable to name any members of the political
opposition to his cabinet and shore up dwindling political support.
	Ten days after all the cabinet ministers resigned to give Collor a
free hand to name new ministers amid rampant allegations of government
corruption, Collor named one diplomat and four allied politicians
Thursday to complete his executive cabinet.
	The announcement underlined Collor's failure to entice members of the
opposition Brazilian Social Democratic Party, the second largest party
in Brazil, to join his government.
	In naming the new officials Thursday, Collor increased the number of
government ministries from 12 to 15.
	The president retained nine ministers in their posts, including three
military officers in the respective armed forces ministries.

Uh, as I recall, this is the fourth term for the Tories, not the third,
since they've been in power for 13 years already.

This error has continued through the last few revisions of this story,
doesn't UPI ever proofread for facts?

	WASHINGTON (UPI) -- Top administration officials, using military
aircraft for political or personal trips, cost the government over $774,
000, but were required to repay only $61,000, a report to Congress said
Tuesday.
	``This is outrageous,'' Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., said of the
policy that allowed top officials to use military planes but only
reimburse the government for the price of a commericial coach ticket
plus $1.
	``For the price of a commercial ticket you would get an entire
airplane,'' said Conyers, who announced he will hold hearings on the
executive branch travel policy.
	Portions of the General Accounting Office report were disclosed last
week, and prompted Secretary of State James Baker to announce that he
would in the future use commercial flights when traveling on personal
business.
	The travel habits of former White House chief of staff John Sununu
were widely criticized last year and were believed to be a factor in his
decision to quit his White House post earlier this year.
	The GAO report examined the use of military aircraft by 11 executive
branch officials during 1989 and 1990. The report said Baker and Sununu
used military planes for personal or political travel far more than any
of the other officials.
	Of the 222 trips reviewed by the GAO, agency officials classified 151
as soley official, 28 as mixed official and political or personal, and
43 as soley political or personal.
	White House policy in effect during the period required that the
government be reimbursed for political and personal trips at a rate
equivalent to commercial coach fare plus $1.
	The GAO found that for the 35 trips on military aircraft that were
soley political and personal, the estimated cost to the military was
$774,330. Reimbursements for that travel, made in accordance with White
House policy during that time, amounted to just $61,585.
	The report said Sununu's travel on military planes during that period
involved 31 trips that were just for official business, 16 for political
purposes, eight for personal reasons and 11 for mixed reasons.
	Baker made 46 official, 11 personal, 7 mixed and no political trips.
	The report said most of the officials generally followed White House
policy on travel, but Sununu ``traveled in many cases without obtaining
required travel authorizations.''
	The report noted ``the White House has taken several actions in
response to this problem to strengthen controls over travel.''
