Still, the resort continues to be a powerful, resilient force. "Nobody can do it better than they can, says Steve Sheridan, owner of a sporting goods store near the Lionshead Gondola. "They have the best construction team in the world and are the most organized group you'll ever see," In 1976, when a gondola cabin fell, killing four people, the resort attracted 686,000 skiers. Over the next 20 years, that total doubled. In 1001 the resort went bankrupt when owner George Gillett's fortune crashed in the junk bond scandal. New owners took over, investing hundreds of millions of dollars.

One reason for confidence is Vail's resources. About 2,500 employees, many of whom work construction in the summer, can be called on a moment's notice.

This town of 7,000 people, 80 miles southeast of San Antonio, was among the hardest hit after torrential rains last weekend triggered record flooding The storms and floods left at least 29 people dead and thousands homeless. Some 60 coun ties experienced flooding, and preliminary damage estimates reached nearly $500 million. About 14,000 people statewide were evacuated from their homes, state officials said. Some 1,500 remain in shelters, 1, including several hundred people in Wharton, 70 miles east of Cuero, who were forced from their homes by the rising Colorado River. After two days of flooding that submerged Wharton's west side and damaged as many as 800 homes, the river crested at 48.5 feet early Friday. f A. 6751 7466 9176 8776 f 7459 pc f cldy cldy 4336r' 8875cldy , 7865 7656 7864 7162 6139 8974 5648 6139 5955 Cldy pc f cldy f cldy r . pc pc 6839f 6035 cldy cloudy; Hain; w,,ii;.m v In 1994, gays and lesbians tried to organize a boycott of Colorado resorts because voters approved a state constitutional amendment denying homosexuals special protection from discrimination.

Shares in Vail Resorts rose 12.5 percent since Monday, boosted by a rebounding small capitalization stock sector and rising confidence that the US. economy is not headed for recession, helping the luxury sector, said Hayley Kissel, an analyst with Merrill Lynch.

Five adults carried some of the 11 children, with older kids helping the younger ones in the darkness. After a month in exile, they could return to their Kosovo village because last week's political agreement would halt Serb or so they thought, attacks Then came the gunfire, killing one man, his two young sons and his niece. On Friday came the grief, with sobbing villagers burying the four in a hillside cemetery. "Why didn't you take your uncle with you?" Xhafer Sylmetaj moaned into the ear of his dead nephew, Mazlummi, lying in a tiny wood coffin with a gaping bullet wound in his left cheek. the stiffened Caressing hands and arms, he softly said, pre-cuw- n "We loved you, You loved us." The deaths Thursday in the mountainous bprder region between Kosovo and Albania showed the enormous gulf between last week's agreement by Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic, which averted NATO airstrikes on his forces, and the reality of daily life in the Serbian province. Despite the agreement's provision for the safe return of war-tor- n i refugees from the more than Serb and Yugoslav offensive, continuing violence including attacks by ethnic Albanian guerrillas on Serb ' and intimidation by forces Serb police hinders progress. J "We thought it would be better now with Holbrooke," said Hamez Sylmetaj, 73, the fathet: and grandfather of three of th dead, referring to U.S. envoy; Richard Holbrooke's agreemeiilj, with Milosevic. "If we are not helped by America and Europe, then the Serbs will continue to do this." A Yugoslav army statement issued in Pristina described the killings as a shootout between border guards and ethnic Albanian guerrillas, who were using women and children as shields for smuggling weapons. The army said the alleged smugglers fired first after being warned to stop, and that four people were killed and two wounded, all of them Albanians. Survivors related a far different story. Fadil Sylmetaj, his eyes swollen from weeping, said no warning was issued as he and his brother led their wives and six children, along with their and her five children r on the final steps of an journey from Albania, "They didn't even say 'stop,' or 'do this or that.' They just started shooting," he said. "I couldn't protect the children. It was so awful." seven-mont- h Associated Press Writer sister-- in-law eight-hou- jPOOR CC |
