Mohammed Buhari, sealed off the oil-rich African nation and imposed a dusk-to-dawn curfew, Lagos radio said. The coup, confirmed by Western diplomats, was the sixth in black Africa's most populous and richest country since independence in 1960. A statement on Lagos radio, read by Brig. Gen. Joshua Dongon- yaro and monitored in the neighboring Ivory Coast, charged the Buhari regime, which took over in a coup less than two years ago, with abusing power and dragging its feet on reform and economic recovery. Suffering from the fall in international oil prices, Nigeria has run up a foreign debt of $15 billion. • Western diplomats in London and Paris reported all was calm in the capital Lagos, including the area around the presidential head­ quarters. They said no special troop movements were noted. There were no reports on Buhari's whereabouts. In his radio statement, Dongonyaro said he spoke on behalf of the Nigerian military and announced the breakup of the Supreme Mili­ tary Council, the highest ruling body of the Buhari regime. The general said the country's borders and air and sea ports were sealed off, and telex and telephone communications to Nigeria were shut down. There was no official word on who was replacing Buhari and his council. In London, a spokesman for the British Foreign Office said all appeared quiet in Nigeria and he had no reports of trouble involving the 11,000-strong British foreign community, the biggest in Nigeria, which was ruled by Britain from 1861 until independence. "It appeared to have been a bloodless coup with no casualties of any sort," he said. He said it was not known whether Dongonyaro, who had held senior staff positions in the army, was the new leader of the country or had been chosen as spokesman. No details on how the new military group seized power were immediately available. "In order to enable a new order to be introduced," Dongonyaro said, "the following bodies are dissolved forthwith pending further announcement: the Supreme Military Council, the Federal Executive Council, the National Council of State." The Supreme Military Council was the ruling body of the Buhari government. Buhari, who held the title of head of state, seized power from a freely elected civilian government on Dec. 31,1983. Dongonyaro said he was speaking "on behalf of my colleagues and members of the Nigerian armed forces" and said military command­ ers would continue to enforce law and order. He did not say specifically who was to lead the new government. "Fellow countrymen, the intervention of the military at the end of 1983 was welcomed by the nation with unprecedented enthusiasm," be said. Dongonyaro appealed to Nigerians to avoid violence and bloodshed and said "rest assured that our action is in the interest" of the nation. . /V, - Available At McHENRY Plaindealer The Following Locations: •AMACO The Following Locations: •WHITE HEN •NORTHWEST • J & L GAS PANTRY TRAIN DEPOT •ACE HARDWARE •BELL LIQUORS •ISLAND FOODS •LAKEVIEW FOODS •BELL LIQUORS •CONVENIENT •LAKEVIEW FOODS •BOLGERS FOOD •SUNNYSIDE DRUGSTORE •COUNTRY FOODS •JEWEL/OSCO CUPBOARD •LITTLE STORE •KAREN itGINNY'S •SULLIVAN FOODS •SUNRISE GROCERY •LIQUOR MART •UNION '76 •DEBBIE'SGENERAL •LIQUOR MART •COLE PHARMACY STORE •NORTHERN IL •COAST TO COAST •VILLAGE MARKET MEDICAL CNTR •SUNNYSIDE GAS •McHENRY DRUG •FOOD MART & QUICK MART •J &R FOOD MART COVENTRY GREEN BUILDING 457 Coventry Lane Suite 126 Crystal Lake (815) 455-5034 A /fVr I T--I • rvi X in* There's noway out of a serious emotional problem.

Diana and her husband Prince Charles interrupted their Scottish vacation to visit nine hospitalized survivors of the Boeing 737 plane fire that killed 54 people last Thursday. They stopped at the bedside of Lyndsey Elliott, 13, who lost her mother, aunt and uncle in the disas­ ter, which was triggered by an en­ gine exlosion as the British Airtours jet streaked down a Manchester Airport runway at 110 mph. The girl suffered shock and smoke inhalation when she escaped from the blazing Jet along with 82 other survivors after the pilot abort­ ed takeoff. A hospital spokesman said that since the disaster the despairing girl had refused to respond. But she opened her eyes for the first time when the royal couple stopped at her bedside and Diana talked to her. "It was the first time she had opened her eyes," said nursing offi­ cer Janet Edwards at Withenshawe Hospital. "Until then she had not responded to anything. It was like she was rejecting the whole situation." Edwards said the girl bad been "pretty badly injured herself" in the accident and had been on a respirator but her condition was now listed as "improving." A hospital spokeswoman said Princess Diana had heard about the girl and wanted "to make a special effort to talk to her." The girl called the visit by the royal couple "lovely." "Princess Diana was beautiful," she said. During their visit to the hospital­ ized survivors, the Prince and Prin­ cess sat on the beds of patients, offered them condolences and thanked hospital staff for their ef­ forts in the aftermath of Britain's worst air disaster in 13 years. "They both sat on my bed," said survivor Claire Bailey, 19. "Charles asked how I was feeling and I told him I was fine now. I told him I planned to go on holiday and he said it was the best thing to do -> to fly again straightaway. There are ways out of a serious emotional problem -- but it takes time and effort. About two-thirds of all people who seek professional help resolve their problems and learn effective coping skills; about half never need treatment again. Greater knowledge about serious emotional problems has improved the chances of recovery. Because misconceptions about mental health are gradually disappearing, people are seeking treatment earlier. And all problems, whether physical or emotional, have a better chance of being resolved the earlier they are treated. Modern mental health treatment is quite unlike the myth of spending the rest of your life seeing a therapist. Short-term psychotherapy, crisis intervention, group therapy and new medications are all new treatment methods that are further improving the frequency and rates of recovery. As a community mental health resource, Riveredge Hospital can provide a link to a wide range of treatment alternatives. If you or someone you know needs help, call us.

(312) 771-7000 By David Cowell United Press International JOHANNESBURG, South Africa -- Police Tuesday detained anti- apartheid activist the Rev. Allan Boesak on the eve of a massive march he vowed to lead on the Cape Town prison where black nationalist Nelson Mandela is imprisoned. As new violence flared in black townships, Boesak, president of the World Alliance of Reformed Churches, was arrested at a road­ block in Cape Town and ordered held under sweeping security laws allowing for almost indefinite deten­ tion without trial. Boesak, an outspoken critic of the white-minority government and a supporter of the anti-apartheid United Democratic Front, was de­ tained only days after police seized 27 other UDF activists in a major crackdown on the organization. Boesak said last week 20,000 peo­ ple would march on Cape Town's Poolsmoor prison Wednesday to ex­ press support for African National Congress leader Nelson Mandela, who was imprisoned 23 years ago for sabotage. The outlawed ANC is South Africa's main black national­ ist movement. Law and Order Minister Louis le Grange had warned Saturday the march was illegal, urged people not to join the protest and said police would take "stern action" to pre­ vent it. Boesak told a news conference Monday the march would go ahead in defiance of le Grange's warning and said any violence would be the responsibility of the police. The arrest, reported by the cler­ ic's office and police spokesman Maj. Steve van Rooyen, came as police firing rubber bullets, teargas and birdshot clashed with demon­ strators in black townships and said classrooms and cars were torched in new racial unrest. On the Johannesburg foreign ex­ change market the South African currency, the rand, slumped to a record low of 36.65 cents amid con­ tinuing international uncertainty about the political future of the country, where escalating unrest has claimed nearly 650 lives in the past year. Dealers said the Reserve Bank made little attempt to ease pressue on the rand and it later recovered to 36.8 U.S. cents. Police reports on Tuesday's vio­ lence came only hours after officers issued a statement saying they would clamp down on news about the unrest that has scarred scores of black townships since last September. "As you do, we had an editorial conference and we decided to look at the whole thing," said Col. Jaap Venter, head of the police Public Relations Directorate. "I have no further comment. The reports will keep coming every morning," Venter said. In the black township outside Sa­ ble in eastern Transvaal province, police fired rubber bullets, tear gas and birdshot to disperse a crowd of blacks, and a black man was slight­ ly injured by a mob that set fire to a car. In Virginia in the Orange Free State, police with whips broke up a mob of blacks throwing rocks and arrested five people, authorities said. Police clashed with blacks throw­ ing stones in the township of Gugu- letu outside Cape Town and traffic officers closed off roads in the area, the South African Broadcasting Corp. reported. In other incidents, classrooms at two schools were set on fire and damaged and a car destroyed by gasoline bombs in Ntuzuma by a "small group of hooligan," police said. The latest unrest came in the sixth week of a state of emergency and one day after Nobel Peace Prize-winner Bishop Desmond Tu­ tu's son was jailed Monday for swearing at police officers.

"It seems to augur badly for the future of our country," the bishop said.
