Speaking of Soaps Update of daily serials PAGE 7 - PLA1NDEALEK - FRIDAY, JANUARY 20, 1984 Imagine being at sea on a lux­ urious ocean liner complete with gourmet meals, a fine casino, skeet shooting, fabulous entertainment and an inviting sun drenched pool? If it sound like a cruise ship; you are right. But, if it has soap stars entertaining onboard, it isn't just any cruise ship, it is Scandinavian Lines' Sea Escape Adventure. One weekend in December while my fellow New York colleagues were braving the winter winds my family and I were basking in the warm glow of the Florida sun on our first soap Optra cruise. Taylor Miller (Nina, AMC) and Michael Knight (Tad, AMC) were the main attractions in the Neptune Lounge of the Scandinavian vessel as it left Port Canavaral and cruised to "nowhere." Twice the expected crowd cramm­ ed the ship's plush nightclub anxious to hear whether Nina and Cliff would reconcile and if Tad would change hi$ evil ways. Taylor lamented that Nina had tried everything to win back her former husband on the serial but to no avail. Die hard AMC fans were quick to point out to Taylor that she try everything from sexy negligees to spiked punch to bring Cliff around. Michael explained Tad was having too good a cime being Peck's Bad Boy to change anytime soon. When chastized about making love to Liza and her mother at the same time, Michael qualified Tad's behavior by saying he never romanced them at the same time. He always took them out separately. After a lively question and answer session, moderated by Cynthia Bostick of Kacey Associates (the producers of this event), Taylor and Michael posed for pictures with any fan with a camera and distributed autographed photos of themselves.lt was a soap opera fan's dream. A "one on one" opportunity to speak to your favorite soap personality. Scandinavian Lines is so pleased with the positive response to their soap opera cruise, that it plans at least six more in the coming year out of Miami or Port Canavaral. If you are interested in sailing with .a soap star, ask your travel agent foj details. But you had better plan ahead. All the soap fans I spoke to onboard were so impressed with the fine Scandinavian Line facilities and soap opera entertainment that they were already planning their new cruise.

In a related action, the League announced its deep regret that the INF and START talks have been suspended and will urge the merger and resumption of these negotiations. These two actions are results of the League's newly deter­ mined position in support of arms control measures. The ') League's 111,000 members across the country participated in the development of this new position which was ratified this past week by the League's national board of directors. In announcing the new position, League President Dorothy S. Ridings said, "The League is entering the debate at a critical juncture. World ten­ sions are high, the government's commitment to arms control is being challenged, and citizens are looking for some progress towards arms reductions. The League brings a well-informed, politically active grassroots network to the debate to help citizens translate their concerns into concrete actions." Other actions resulting from the new position include: -- support for a Com­ prehensive Test Ban. ~ support for negotiations to prohibit deployment of anti- satellite weapons. -- opposition to the deployment of space weapons that would violate Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty. Ridings noted that the League strongly supports both multilateral and bilateral negotiations to achieve agreement in all arms control areas. The League believes that unilateral initiatives are not the most appropriate means to achieve arms control. An overwhelming majority of local Leagues participated in setting this new position. "We had responses from 76 percent of our 1,197 local Leagues, an in­ dication of their strong interest in finding solutions to the arms race," said Ridings. Since May 1982, League members throughout the Country have been studying arms control issues. Local leagues are currently studying U.S. military policy and defense spending. In February, the WoodstoCk- McHenry League will present a program on this phase of the National Security Study. That meeting will be Thursday, Feb. 9 at 9:30 a.m. in Woodstock.

The year 1983 proved to be the safest year since 1959 for motor vehicle fatalities on the Illinois Tollroad System. A total of 12 fatalities resulting from nine fatal accidents during 1983 is a reduction of 40 percent from 1982, when 20 fatalities occurred. Captain Hugh S. McGinley, commander of District 15, the largest state police district in Illinois, commented, "Our foremost goal in 1983 was to reduce fatalities on the system tenable the Illinois Tollway to remain the "world's safest" by miles of roadway traveled." "One of the reasons the Illinois Tollroad is so safe is because .150 uniform state troopers patrol the system 24 hours a/day. Through vigorous traffic (law enforcement, 1,353 drunk drivers were arrested in 1983, along with 25.838 arrests for speeding. Drunk drivers and speeders are far and above the main causes of fatal accidents in Illinois," McGinley added "We inspected 2,748 trucks and put 815 of them put of ser­ vice as unsafe.-1 feel that with the 80,000 pound weight limit now in Illinois, only the safest trucks should be able to ride our roads," said Captain McGinley. In 1982, the fatality rate of 0.6 fatals per 100 million miles traveled dropped in 1983 to 0.35 fatals" per 100 million miles traveled The miles traveled on the tollway system has increased from 640 million vehicle miles in 1959, the first complete year, to 1983 when the tollway ex­ perienced approximately 3 billion 175 million vehicle miles traveled.
