Show Al0Womanin Body Bag Moves, Breathes — Lives THE ASSOCIATED PRESS ALBANY,N.Y. — The apartment manager thought she was dead. So did the paramedics who couldn't find a heartbeat. But 86-year-old Mildred C. Clark was found to be alive, 90 minutes after she was placed in a bodybag andstored ina Tefriger- ated room.She was in critical condition Thursday. “Thisis illogical stuff that went on,” said Albany Medical Center spokesman Greg McGarry. The managerof Clark’s apartment complex called paramedics Wednesday after finding Clark unconscious in her living room. Lori Goodman-DePietro said she was sure Clark was dead, and so wasthe rescue squad. Morgue supervisor Herman Thomas was putting the body ona stretcher when he noticed slight movements and what he thought was the sound of breathing, McGarry said. He unzipped the bag andcalled for medical help. octors said there are several conditions that could have caused Clark’s condition to mimic death, such as hypothermia.

Aristide Names New Army Leader Told to Reshapea Haitian Military Steeped in Repression, Brutality otherforeign advisers In that vein, Aristide declined to respond when former Costa Rican president Oscar Arias declared during a visit Wednesday that Haiti should abolish its army altogether, keeping only a civilian police force. Arias, who won the 1987 Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts to pacify Central America, recalled that his country has benefited enormouslysince disbandingits army followinga civil war in 1948. Haiti, Aristide said when pressed by reporters, shouldbelike a ‘‘symphony” with many voices. His responsereflected a relentless effort since his return to urge reconciliation rather than the radical change he has advocated mostofhis life. The new attitude has disconcerted manyofhis followers, although it has pleased the Clinton administration officials who restored him to power despite misgivings by some Republicansin Congress. Demonstrating the new policyof letting bygones be bygones, armyandpolice troops marched Thursday throughthecapital’s main square, the Champ de Mars, in preparation for today’s traditional Army Day celebrations. Army Dayis the anniversary of a decisive 1803 battle in the slave rebellion that gave Haiti independence from France. The Aristide government has sought to take the edge off the event this year by making it part of something new called Respect for Life Week. But By Edward Cody THE WASHINGTON POST PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti — President Jean-Bertrand stide named a new army commander Thursday as part of a U.S.-backedplanto legitimize and transform Haiti’s disgraced, coup-prone mili- tary without completely disbandingit. Brig. Gen. Bernardin Poisson, until recently an obscure colonel heading the fire department, was given command in a decree signed by Aristide, Prime Minister Smarck Micheland the new defense and interior ministers. He replaced Maj. Gen. JeanClaude Duperval, interim commandersincethe U.S. occupation forced Lt. Gen. Raoul Cedrasto resign as armedforces chief Oct. 10 to end Haiti's three-year military dictatorship. Poisson, whohas trained in the United States and France, assumed command over a military institu- tion sullied by years of brutality in support of the Duvalier family dictatorship and morerecently by the bloodyrepression that followed the coup against Aristide in September 1991. His men and officers havebeen objects of hatred and fear amongthe poor masses whovoted Aristide into power in 1990 and rejoiced at his return from exile Oct. 15. Aristide, nevertheless, has voiced the intention to keep the military intact — although purgingits officercorps, reducingits strength from 7,000 and separating the national police from the army. Lt. Col. Pierre Estanislas Neptune was namedlast week to heada new police force being formed with U.S. and Haitians stuck with the old vocabulary as they watched the rehearsing troops march by this morning, preceded by a brassy army bandandfollowed by squadronsof uniformed schoolchildren. Aristide advisers have explained that the Haitian Constitution not only requires an army but also accords a degree of autonomyto its commander.
