TULSA WORLD, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1993 NEWS 3 Confirms Spuds Is Dead ST. LOUIS (AP) Rumors about the death of Spuds MacKenzie, Anheuser-Busch's famed party animal, have abounded for years a limousine wreck, a plane crash, a hot -tub accident. But the real thing passed his fans by. The ultra-cool Bud Light spokesdog died last spring of kidney failure at his home in suburban Chicago, company officials have confirmed. Make that her home.

Remember? Spuds turned out to be a female, pedigreed bull terrier a fact the Esquire magazine felt deserved one of its Dubious Achievement Awards six years ago. Spuds, whose real name was Honey Tree Evil Eye, or Evie for short, first appeared on a national television spot for Bud Light during the 1987 Super Bowl. For two years, Spuds was a highly visible pitchdog who company officials say helped make Bud Light one of America's top-selling brews. Spuds spent her last years with owners Stan and Jackie Oles i in North Riverside, and died near her 10th birthday in May. Continued from News 1 for the burglar to sell the collection because word has gotten out about the theft, and the market for such items is extremely small.

"They would have to sit on it for some time, for years and years," said the collector, who has an itemized 61-page list of the models that were stolen. Local model train enthusiasts said they were shocked about the theft. "People have from time to time had trains stolen, but not on this scale," said Mark Montray, a fellow collector. "This was something that was premeditated." Doug Azary of Action Hobbies was even more blunt. "This was a professional hit by a model railroader," Azary said.

Last train sets worth $4,370 were stolen from his store. Most of the items were recovered after a 19-year-old tried to sell one of the pieces at a model train show. "Our loss was just a drop in the bucket compared to this. This is devastating," Azary said. Police and collectors will be looking out for the stolen items at a model train show at the Maxwell Convention Center next month and another show scheduled for February.

Model train collecting groups across the country have been notified. Model train collecting has grown in popularity in recent years, Azary said, prompting an increase in value. Anyone with information about the theft should call Crime Stoppers at 583-COPS.

Castello, Brian Sipple Continued from News 1 two amphibious ships would bring the total to more than 20,000. Clinton painted a dire picture of the consequences of an immediate withdrawal: "Within months, Somali children again would be dying in the streets. Our own credibility with friends and allies would be severely damaged. Our leadership in world affairs would be undermined. And all around the world, aggressors, thugs and terrorists will conclude that the best way to get us to change our policies is to kill our people.

It would be open said season he on Americans." Aspin hoped Clinton's decision would lead other countries to beef up their forces in Somalia. "We believe the allies will also show more activity," Aspin said at a White House briefing after Clinton's speech. Clinton said he wanted to call the troops home as soon as possible and was sending diplomat Robert Oakley to Africa to try to find a settlement. He said it might take "up to six months" to complete the mission but he hoped it would be less. Secretary of State Warren Christopher outlined a burst of diplomatic activity to refocus the Somali operation on a political rather than military track.

He said the United States sending messages to 30 countries asking that they keep their troops in Somalia until it is secure. Christopher made clear that U.S. forces would be pulled out by March 31 even if Somalia is still plagued by lawlessness and chaos. He noted Clinton's statement that there is no guarantee Somalia will rid itself of violence or suffering "but at least we will have given Somalia a reasonable chance."

TJADEN, Montez, 80, advertising exec- U.S. Suspects Sudan, Iran Assisted Aidid WASHINGTON (AP) Sudan and Iran are believed to have helped Somali warlord Mohamed Aidid with training and equipment for the deadly ambushes he has been mounting against U.N. troops, U.S. officials say. The Clinton administration has received numerous reports of Sudanese and Iranian involvement in training and equipping Aidid's forces, said one official familiar with intelligence from Somalia.

Proof, however, is harder to come by, the official said. The United States is particular-, ly suspicious about a rash of remote-controlled mines detonated against the 28-country U.N. forces since June. The mines have killed dozens. "They clearly are using some weaponry that was perhaps not in his (Aidid's) arsenal prior" to these ambushes, State Department spokesman Michael McCurry said.

A senior administration official said some of the weapons are coming from Sudan and some from Kenya, without the Kenyan government's approval. In August, the Clinton administration placed Sudan on a list of countries that sponsor terrorism, and accused it of harboring the Palestinian Abu Nidal group and the Iranian-backed Hezbollah. Sudan denied that it was training and arming Aidid loyalists. "We challenge them to come up with a single evidence to back up these allegations," Omer Barido, the first secretary of Sudan's Foreign Ministry, told The Associated Press in Khartoum. The United States was embarrassed in August when a ship reported by intelligence to be carrying Sudanese weapons to Somalia turned out after a U.S.

and French inspection to be carrying 48.000 bags of sugar. Intelligence information since the beginning of the year has pointed to an emerging alliance between Aidid and governmentbacked, Iranian-trained Muslim fundamentalists i in Sudan. A U.S. official said that in March, Aidid visited Sudan and met with Hassan Turabi, the leader of the National Islamic Front a fundamentalist political party with a militia being trained by Iranian Revolutionary Guards. Turabi offered help and Aidid accepted, said a former administration official familiar with the intelligence about that meeting.

In recent weeks, a growing number of intelligence reports say Aidid's militia has received remote-controlled mines complete with training, an intelligence official said. In addition, some Sudanese working for U.N.-sponsored humanitarian organizations in Somalia are suspected of giving Aidid information about the movements of U.N. forces. Experts on Iran say Aidid's tactics in what has evolved into an urban guerrilla war with the United Nations are typically Iranian. day.

Russians observed a day of mourning for the victims of the White House battle. A 20 Russia Continued from News 1 longer had 10 judges, the required quorum.

Yeltsin said the judges could keep their perks of office, and he asked for their help in creating guidelines for a new court. The Constitutional Court is only the latest target to fall since Yeltsin's bloody victory Monday. He has also dismissed Russia's prosecutor general, demanded the resignation of regional and local legislatures, fired two regional administrators and banned hard-line newspapers and parties. Moscow Mayor Yuri Luzhkov. after consulting with Yeltsin, disbanded the city council.

Leaders of the revolt against the president have been imprisoned. On Thursday, police arrested hard-line leader Viktor Anpilov at a country house south of Moscow. Anpilov headed Moscow Labor, a now-banned communist group that held frequent rallies, including a May Day demonstration at which a police officer was killed. Anpilov is accused of helping organize the legislators' armed rebellion at Russian parliament building, or White House. Also Thursday, authorities charged Stanislav Terekhov, leader of the Officers' Union, of stealing weapons.

Terekhov's group helped organize the defense of parliament, and he is accused of helping raid a military headquarters during the 13-day siege. Two people were killed in the raid. Hundreds of hard-line legislators and their supporters surrendered Monday after troops stormed the parliament building. The lawmakers had barricaded themselves in the building for nearly two weeks, since Yeltsin disbanded parliament. The confirmed death toll from the two days fighting rose to 187.

AP Photo After about a dozen U.S. soldiers were killed in heavy fighting last weekend, Aspin defended himself against criticism that he had rebuffed requests from military commanders for tanks and heavy armor to defend troops in Somalia. "Had I known at that time, what I knew after the events of Sunday, I would have made a very different decision," Aspin said. He rejected demands from some in Congress that he resign.

Aspin and Christopher emphasized that the military operation should now take second place to a political or diplomatic solution that will be overseen mostly by African countries. In fact. Christopher said, it would be up to the Africans to decide whether fugitive warlord Mohamed Farrah Aidid should have a role in attempts to reconcile rival factions in Somalia. "We're looking to the African leaders to find an African solution to an African problem," he said. Clinton was looking to quell a chorus of protest in Congress, and won an immediate pledge of bipartisan support from Senate Republican Leader Bob Dole.

"It seems to me the president has spoken and he's now outlined the plan the American plan," Dole said. As Clinton, sitting at his Oval Office desk, explained his reasons for sending more troops, he also issued a stern warning to Somalis holding at least one U.S. serviceman captive. He declared the United States would hold them "strictly responsible for our soldiers' well-being. We expect them be well-treated and we expect them to be released." He said he did not want to personalize the conflict.
