Mental patient OK to stand trial
A 60-year-old mental patient charged with murder in the
strangulation of a fellow patient was found competent to
stand trial, but may need a second psychiatric evaluation, said
lim A nrlprc
Anders said he might ask for a re-evaluation of Leo Hiram,
despite the State Hospital's finding that Hiram is competent to
stand trial on the murder charge. Hiram is charged in the Nov.
28 death of Ben Lawhorne.
Both men were patients at Crafts-Farrow State Hospital
when Lawhorne was strangled in a hospital bathroom.

the Soviet Union may not mean large sales in the short term,
but it could be important to the Atlanta-based soft drink giant
in the future, an industry analyst says.
The Coca-Cola Co. announced Wednesday the Soviet,
government had given permission for Coke to be sold in the
U.S.S.R, where Pepsi has been the only cola drink for more
than a dccade.
Donald Keough, Coca-Cola's president, said Coke will first
be sold only at shops that serve tourists, the diplomatic corps
and other foreign visitors to the Soviet Union. Soviet citizens
will be allowed to purchase Coke in Moscow and other cities
by summer he said.
Board wants ads off billboards
WASHINGTON ? A federal advisory committee has
recommended a total ban on cigarette advertising and promotion,
arguing that smoking each year kills seven times more
Americans than died in the Vietnam War.
The national Advisory Council on Drug Abuse on Wednesday
voted 9-1 to recommend the ban to Health and Human
Services Secretary Margaret Heckler. Their letter conveying
the recommendation is expected to ro to Heckler today.
Aspirin warnings to appear
WASHINGTON ? Warnings of a link between aspiring
and the often fatal children's disease known as Reye's Syndrome
will begin appearing on supermarket shelves this week,
but some critics say the industry's voluntary notices are not
enough.
The government announced Wednesday the aspirin industry
has agreed to a warning campaign including posters and shelf
stickers in stores and supermarkets and public service ads on
radio and television.
The warnings will tell parents not to give aspirin to children
r?r te??nacers suffering from chicken dox or influenza unless a
doctor is consulted first.

Beirut.
Sharon's layers argued that the Time story
would lead the average reader to conclude he
"instigated, encouraged and condoned" the
massacre.
TIME denied that interpretation and originally
maintained that information about the alleg- <*,
ed discussion was contained in Appendix B of ^
an Israeli inquiry commission's report on the
September 1982 massacre.
Sharon testified he did not discuss revenge
"with any Lebanese" and also denied Appendix
B contained information about such a
discussion.
For months, the Israeli government refused to
release Appendix B and other secret documents
form the inquiry commission's investigation,
citing national security reasons.
