Calls for safety overhaul gather steam after deaths of 14 in West Virginia coal mines CHARLESTON, "WVa.—In death, 14 West Virginia coal miners have achieved something that just a month ago seemed an unlikely goal: Labor, industry and lawmakers are united in demanding that a dangerous subterranean occupation be made safer. Hours after the bodies of two missing miners were found Saturday in Aracoma Coal's Alma No. 1 mine at Melville, Gov. Joe Manchin and West Virginia's congressional delegation called for a major overhaul of state and federal mine safety laws. Both the National Mining Association and the United Mine Workers of America said Sunday that they, too, will press for change. "This is a time for all of us who share responsibility for mining safety to come together and look for ways to make mining safer," said Carol Raulston, spokeswoman for the National Mining Association in Washington. "We have made dramatic improvements over the last 15 years, but there's more to be done." The bodies of Don I. Bragg, 33, and ElIery "Elvis" Hatfield, 47, were found Saturday, two days after a conveyor belt caught fire inside the Alma mine in southern West Virginia. Their deaths came just weeks after a Jan. 2 mine explosion that led to the deaths of 12 other miners exposed to carbon monoxide inside the Sago Mine in the northern part of the state.

The former llama herder andleader of Bolivia's coca growers union raised his fist in a leftist sa- lute just before he swore to uphold the constitution during the ceremony in the ornate Legislative Palace Morales wept and bowed after he was presented with the yellow, red and green presidential sash _ the colors of the Bolivian flag. Outside, tens of thousands of people, led by brightly dressed Indians, cheered and blew on cow horns as fireworks crackled overhead. They then sang the national anthem amid shouts of "Evo! Evo!" in support of Morales, a farmer's son who has promised to lift one of Latin America's poorest countries out 26 •Meteorology Graduate seminan "An Introduction to the Weather Derivative Industry": 2 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. @ 110INSCC •Metallurgical Engineering Seminar: "Gas-Based Direct Reduction of Iron Oxide": 3:20 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. @ 207 WBB. •Frontiers of Science Lecture: 7:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. @ 220 Skaggs •"Humble Boy": 730 p.m. to 10 p.m. @ Simmons Pioneer Memorial Theatre of the misery it has endured since the 16th-century Spanish conquest. Morales said his election marks the beginning of the end to hundreds of years of discrimination and repression of Bolivia's Indian majority. "I wish to tell you, my Indian brothers, that the 500-year indigenous and popular campaign of resistance has not been in vain," Morales declared. He also said he would "change history" but "without vengeance," and his government would serve all sectors of Bolivian society. Tieless in character with his informal style, the former opposition leader vowed that his leftist Movement Toward Socialism would be stubbornly independent, avoiding any outside influences. While he has said his government would welcome warm relations with the United States and other governments, he vowed he would not "submit" to any outside powers. •Teaching Seminar Teaching Large Classes: 11:30 am. to 1:30 p.m. @ Center for Teaching & Learning Excellence •Texas College of Chiropractic: 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. @ ASB 504 •Biology Seminar Series: 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. @ 210 Skaggs •HMBG Guest Speaker: 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. @ EIHG Auditorium '"Humble Boy": 7:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. @ Simmons Pioneer Memorial Theatre •'X)n the Razzle": 7:30 p.m.® Babcock Theatre •Metallurgical Engineering Seminar: "Multicompoent Reactive Transport Modeling in Variably Saturated Media": 3 p.m. to 4 p.m. @ INSCC Auditorium •Women's Gymnastics vs. Utah State and Southern Utah: 7 p.m. @ Huntsman Center •"Humble Boy": 750 p.m. to 10 p.m. @ Simmons Pioneer Memorial Theatre •"On the Razzle": 730 p.m. @ Babcock Theatre •Crimson Nights: 9 p.m. to 2 am. @ Union ^Aff'evenfsTbcated on 'campus. New Bolivian President Evo Morales speaks to supporters at the Plaza de los Heroes square In La Paz, Bolivia on Sunday.

Pakistani prime minister says U.S. should tell Pakistan before airstrikes WASHINGTON—Pakistan's prime minister on Sunday condemned an American airstrike on a remote Pakistani village, saying such attacks should be cleared with Islamabad first. .Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz said no understanding exists between U.S. and Pakistani officials that allows American military forces to attack alleged terrorists in Pakistan without first consulting the government. "The understanding is that we will work together," Aziz said. "We will work in collaboration with each other." Aziz said Pakistani officials were given no notice before the Jan. 13 attack that killed :at least 13 civilians, including women and children. The attack was apparently aimed at al-Qaida's No. 2, Ayman ai-Zawahri, who wasn't there. Pakistan, Aziz said, "has regretted and condemned the incident and said that such incidents should not reoccur. We need to work together. There is no difference in the objectives of the two countries, so there is no reason why we shouldn't communicate." Pakistan is a key U.S. ally, but it has strongly protested the airstrike, which has angered many in the Islamic nation of 150 million and sparked friction between Islamabad and Washington. Aziz is scheduled to meet this week with U.S. President George W. Bush and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld. The strike is believed to have killed at least four of al-Zawahri's close associates in the village of Damadola close to the border with Afghanistan. 1 7 3 4 8 9 6 ® \j\ do ku ?

Insurgents fired rocket propelled grenades at the home of an Iraqi police officer in Balad Ruz, 45 miles northeast of Baghdad, said a spokesman for the Iraqi police Joint Coordination Center. The officer's childrea ages 6 to n, and their uncle were killed, the spokesman said on condition of anonymity due to fears of reprisal attacks. The officer was unharmed, but his wife was wounded. Also Sunday, the bodies of a prominent Sunni Arab tribal leader and his son were found in a field near Hawija, 150 miles north of Baghdad, said police Capt. Farhad Talabani. Sayid Ibrahim Ali, 75, and his 28year-old son Ayad were shot as they left a funeral Saturday, Talabani said. Four policemen were killed and nine were wounded in a pre-dawn roadside bomb blast that targeted their patrol in Baqouba, 35 miles northeast of Baghdad, the police center said. www.dailyulahchronicle.com Pizza by the Slice 1O:OO pm till close Answers to today's puzzle are on page 13. i&feto JBork Stme* Crossword 52 Jokes ACROSS Bearcat (classic 1 car) 6 Muslim leader 10 Cover the driveway 14 Gdansk natives 15 "IJust Wanna Stop" singer Vannelli 16 Manipulator 17 How often rent is usually paid 19 Periman of "Cheers" 20 1950'sprez 21 It's nothing at all 22 Herb with the Tijuana Brass 24 Oldtime crooner Julius 26 What a settlement avoids 28 Indian music 30 Difficult situations 34 "My Friend ° (old radio/TV series) 37 Frozen waffle brand 39 Lovable ogre of film 40 Bellyache 4f What each of the longest words in 17A, 65A. 10Dand25D famously lacks 43 Online auction site 44 Mexican friend 46 MasterCard alternative, informally 47 Inquires (about) 48 Kodaks, e.g. 50 Crowd reaction CA Edited by Will Shortz 2 1 3 4 No. 1212 5 K K « 1 I' 58 Rocket propulsion 61 Pudding fruit 63 Blood-typing letters 64 Second-largest of the Hawaiian islands 65 Lone Ranger's cry 68 Writer Waugh 69 _ synthesizer 70 Din 71 Small winning margin 72 Diarist Frank 73 Xenon and neon 14 if W~ DOWN 1 Go bad 2 Toy truck maker 3 Slomach malady 4 Golf ball raiser 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 A Gabor sister Stravinsky or Sikorsky North Dakota city Picnic intruder Angora fabric Military hero's award Stadium (Queens landmark) 12 Suddenly change course 13PartofQ.E.D. 18 Scanty 49 Respiratory problem 23 Young fellows 25 Breakfast beverage 27 Boardinghouse guest 29 Shocked 31 Wall St. figures 32 Plumbing problem 33 The the limit!" 34 Apple computer 35 Italia's capital 36 Seriously injure 38 Sock hop locale 42 Large-scale emigration 45 Underground deposits DAILY UTAH CHRONICLE 51 Pointing 53 Observe furtively 55 Smiley of PBS 56 Fatter than fat 57 Tender areas 58 Fed. agent in finances 59 Saint's glow 60 Regrets 62 Seating section 66 Charged particle 67 Mauna volcano Advertising 801 581.7041 News 801 581.NEWS Fax 801 581.FAXX Editor in Chief Steve Gehrke s.gehrke@chronicle.utah.edu Asst.
