"There are no offers and there will be none," Trump lawyers Jay Goldberg and Stanford said in a statement. They said the Trump prenuptial and postnuptial agreements were "ironclad." The last written agreement calls for Ivana to receive $25 million, custody of the couple's three children and the couple's mansion in Connecticut. But she wants more. And according to reports in New York's tabloid newspapers, which have avidly covered the Trump divorce, she'll probably get it. . Liz Smith, gossip columnist for the Daily News, reported in today's editions that Trump is negotiating to offer Ivana "more money than even the aforesaid $100 million." New York Newsday had quoted Trump associates as saying Trump planned to up the ante to much-publiciz- r r I Lo-tw- in $100 million. j which was expected to reach the floor later today. "If that's what it takes to avert a strike, OK, but it's getting to be more emotional," said Assistant Minority Whip Brent Goodfellow, Valley City, adding that Democrats preferred statewide taxation rather than local options. The details of the package still were being worked out by late morning, while both chambers began passing a flurry of education bills, including a $5 million asbestos abatement measure and a resolution calling for a five-yestrategic plan to improve Utah's educational system. About 66 percent of Utah's American Federation of Teachers said they would strike if Utah Education Association teachers did, a poll indicated. The AFT has only 1,000 members along the Wasatch Front. The UEA represents most Utah teachers. UEA teachers were voting on two issues today, according to Drew of the Nebo Daniels, president-elec- t Education Association representing UEA teachers in the Nebo School District in southern Utah County. Officers and teacher representatives from the Nebo Education Association, the Alpine Education Association representing UEA teachers in Orem and northern Utah County, and the Provo Education Association met Thursday night to be briefed on the latest offers from legislators prior to today's vote. Daniels said one issue was whether UEA members agreed with their directors that the most recent legis- ar Donald Trump Thursday for a news conference about the championship boxing match between Thomas Hearns and Michael Olajide.

Sullivan leaves as anchor tears, on Thursday. NEW YORK (AP) Upbeat Kathbut appearing near leen Sullivan said farewell today of "CBS This Mornas k Their farewell addresses came about after CBS News executives decided to replace Sullivan, whose contract expires in November. According to her agent, Ron Konecky, they gave no reason. He said he is discussing other possibilities for her at the network. Zahn's agent has confirmed that his client is joining CBS News. According to a source close to her contract talks, ABC officials liked her work but decided against battling CBS' offer four-yea- r of a $1.1 million-a-yea- r, contract. Zahn, who had been earning $275,000 a year at ABC, could CBS' show as start early as Feb. 26, according to another source knowledgeable about negotiations for her switch back-to-bac- ing," telling viewers that she's proud of the show and jokingly asking them not to forget her. Sullivan, who has been on the show with Harry Smith since it began in November 1987, also confirmed in her farewell what CBS spokesmen thus far have that refused to comment on ABC's Paula Zahn will succeed her. "Paula Zahn has been the stepmother to two of my other children at ABC, and now I'm sure she'll take great care of my third, 'CBS This Morning,' " Sullivan said in her final day on the show, which originated today from Disney World in Orlando, Fla. Before joining CBS, Sullivan ABC's "World News This Morning" and the news segments of "Good Morning America." She was succeeded on those programs by Zahn, who bid viewers of those shows goodbye to CBS. CBS has said that Faith Danthe "CBS iels, who Morning News" that precedes "CBS This Morning," will be the latter program's temporary next week. time to think about any of that, you need to act by reflex." With paper targets set at any kind of distance, an officer can't tell which ones they are hitting or where the stray shots are landing. With these new targets they can be heard when they're hit and they can be seen where they're hit. With the training on these new targets, the officers are trained to eventually hit an eight-inctarget that pops up for half a second, said Sovino. "Once they can do that, we feel they can hit a much larger moving target," he said. The targets are painted white with a fresh coat of paint after every 12 shots, so with the officer visibly seeing the bullets hitting the target, the hand eye coordination is built up. "The DKA went with this system so they can train their officers better and faster and hopefully the survival rate will go way up," said Sovine. The targets themselves are made of armour plate and are designed to withstand all calibers of hand guns. They are run on air and aren't limited to any weather conditions. These targets are designed to function in less than .24 seconds. They are also computer controlled and can be favor of striking if the Legislature's offer was considered unacceptable. "Nobody wants to strike; we are still hopping the Legislature will do something for us," he said. Daniels said the UEA has a phone tree established to notify teachers of any board decision. According to Paul Hickman, executive director of Bonneville Unis-ervrepresenting UEA teachers in Utah County, there are about 3,000 teachers in Utah County and 2,200 are UEA members. The others are AFT or members of no teacher's organizations. Phyllis Sorensen, president of the pects to attend the conference with their consultant, Dr. Steven Lamm.

At the summit, Bush met a key American demand by promising in the communique to fight cocaine consumption in his country. "I owe it to the children of America, the United States ... to these three presidents to guarantee them that we will do everything we can to cut demand for narcotics in the United States," Bush said. The four nations also promised to hold a follow-u- p meeting within six months to review progress in the batttle against cocaine and called for a 1991 world conference to address illegal drug trafficking. The document proposed "broad-base- d rural development" to help prevent the economic hardship that it admitted will inevitably result from programs to substitute other crops for coca. The communique indicated that the United States was willing to help finance programs to replenish the country's foreign exchange and to help create jobs for farmers no histories of respiratory cancer patients, he pointed out. The Clean Air Coalition applauds Dr. Archer for meticulous preparation and is disturbed with Geneva Steel for "continually attempting to downplay the community risk of the coking operation at the Orem plant.

"The great result of the anti-dru- g summit for our countries is the realization of the necessity of substituting a legal economy for the current coca economy," Zamora said. In Bolivia's central Chapare region, an estimated 300,000 peasants make a living by growing the bush. Garcia has said repeatedly that many of the estimated 200,000 Peruvian peasants who survive by growing coca could be driven into the camp of leftist rebels if their livelihood is taken away from them. Colombia has frequently com its existing markets, states the prospectus. Included in the $226 million modernization program is the $76 million modernization package announced at a press conference in November. It includes a $62 million basic oxygen process facility, a $5 million coke oven gas desulfurization facility, and a $5 million wastewater treatment facility. When company officials an plained that while it is spilling its blood fighting drug traffickers, the U.S. is discriminating against its legal exports such as coffee and flowers with high tariffs and other protective measures. Bush on Thursday tried to address those complaints by saying he would work to open U.S. markets more.

She said so far the Legislature's latest offer of a 6 percent increase is unacceptable. Sorensen said that the real education issue is more than salaries. She said UEA teachers are also concerned about their students and want a broad education package that includes money for classroom size reduction, new textbooks and other issues directly related to students. Jan Graham, a solicitor general at the Utah Attorney General's office told The Herald that there are no Utah statutes that specifically authorize or prohibit a teachers' strike. She said her office briefly researched the legal issue surrounding a teachers' strike just to be prepared, and has not been asked by any government agency about the question. She also said Utah common law cases have not tackled the issue. But she said there are several cases of teachers' strikes on the books outside Utah, and she said her office could look to those cases to try to pressure teachers.

"There are several Utah law enforcement agencies currently looking into purchasing some of these targets. "The biggest reason cities are looking at it is that it reduces the liability factor of the cities," he said. "Many officers are sueing their own departments for inadequate training." In a 1979 court case, Popow V., Citv of Margate, 476 F.

The firearms training did not include shooting at moving targets. The training did not include night shooting. The training did not account for shooting in populated residential areas.
