Bush, Dukakis debate By Dud Newman Bush and Michael first debate between the in the 1988 Dukakis, clashing two presidential candidates, offered Americans sharply different programs for the future in a rough and sometimes personal meeting. N.C. Wsstoo-Sdes- i, (UPI-Geo- rge Shuttle launch delayed face-to-fa- ce The differences were sharply outlined in the 90-min- ute nationally televised debate as the two candidates responded to a range of issues that included defense, the deficit drugs, health care, the homeless, AIDS and their general qualifications. Dukakis, seeking to become only the second Democrat elected as president since 1964, alternately ripped Bush for his roles in the sales of arms to Iran and the administration's dealings with Panamanian leader Manuel Noriega but mixed in a broad view of how he would lead the nation into the next decade. Bush, hoping to parlay his quiet service as Reagan's vice president into continued GOP control of the White House, sharply attacked Dukakis, three-tergovernor of Massachusetts, for his liberalism and his inexperience in world affairs. Despite their sharp exchanges, some of them personal, the Democratic and the Republican candidates engaged in some banter, some humor and elicited roars of applause from the audience divided between their two CAPE CANAVERAL, FLA. start of the shut- NASA offidaLs said the ship's blastoff on the first flight remains on track for Thursday. "We're still on the timeline for the 29th," said launch post-Challeng- er director Robert Sieck. "The team, of course, is very upbeat and looking forward to it" The countdown had been scheduled to begin at 12:01 a.m. EDT Monday, one minute past midnight Sunday, leading up to blastoff at 9:59 a.m. Thursday. Because of unfinished work in Discovery's engine compartment, however, the "call to stations" marking the start of the countdown was delayed until 8 a.m. Monday. .The work primarily involved closing up the engine room for flight, an intricate procedure that typically takes longer than expected. In the past, the work was carried into the countdown, but for Discovery's launching, NASA wanted to give engineers as much extra time as possible.

Workers await verdict face-to-fa- ce ur te WASHINGTON, D.C (UPIKThe jobs of 3,555 Eastern Airlines employees are at stake in a hearing scheduled to begin Monday before a federal fur-lough- appeals court. The disputed layoff was the largest in Eastern's histopanel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for ry. A three-judg-e the District of Columbia is scheduled to hear oral arguments in the case at 9:30 a.m. Monday and is expected to rule by the end of the month. Union lawyers expect they will get less sympathy from the appeals court than from U.S. District Judge Barrington Parker, the Washington judge who enjoined the layoffs Aug. 30 and issued an opinon critical of Eastern. The justices reviewing Parker's rulinc were all appointed by President Reagan, but union leaders say they expect to be treated fairly. "There are some very conservative judges on the " appeals court panel said Charles Bryan, president of Eastern's largest union. "But we believe conservative judges respect the law and we would hope they will uphold the law." The law in question is the 1926 Railway Labor Act, which governs labor relations in the airline industry. In a preliminary injunction, Parker ruled the unions could likely prove Eastern violated the law. The appeals court dissolved Parker's injunction and allowed Eastern to go ahead with the layoffs after post-in- g a bond of $4.7 million. Hurricane veers north Helene's top winds dropped to 105 mph Sunday and forecasters predicted further weakening as the storm trudged northward in the open Atlantic, where it had little chance of striking land. The hurricane was moving toward the north at a leisurely 8 mph and was expected to continue that motion for the next 24 hours. Helene became a hurricane Wednesday morning, less than a week after Hurricane Gilbert ripped through the Caribbean islands and Mexico. Gilbert and Helene both formed near the Cape Verde Islands off the coast of Africa and followed similar paths until Helene veered north Thursday.
