Glendening backs smoking ban in Maryland
Governor elect Parris Glendening supports defending Schaefer's statewide indoor smoking ban but hints at possible changes later. He would address bars restaurants and hotel rooms if the court upholds the regulation and agreed to proceed with current proposals while awaiting rulings. The joint appearance also announced Martin Wasserman as state health secretary replacing Nelson Sabatini. Wasserman, former Prince George s County health officer, was praised by anti smoking groups for his role in Smoke Free Maryland and his background includes Johns Hopkins medical degree and Baltimore law degree.

The U S Naval Academy will ask President Clinton to review a one year reduction in the six year service obligation after an 8 percent drop in applications since the requirement began. Board chairman Fred McClure said the annual report will urge consideration of a five year term as officials cite the burden on 17 year olds and shrinking applicant pool.

Maryland doctor uses cryosurgery to treat liver cancer
A 72 year old Baltimore man became Maryland's first to receive liver cancer treatment by cryosurgery at University of Maryland Medical Center on December 9. The technique freezes cancer cells with liquid nitrogen and ultrasound guidance, expanding options for patients ineligible for traditional surgery. Medical experts caution it is not a universal cure, with about 60 percent five year survival in this disease.
