CDC director charts goals after six weeks in post
ATLANTA AP The Nissan lckup with the George Bush ies sticker has become a regular sight out front. The soft spoken, bespectacled Alabama pediatrician turned politician is William L. Roper, four months into his role as director of the Centers for Disease Control guiding a 5,000 employee agency. He outlines three priorities: strengthen public health infrastructure, emphasize prevention, and notably promote health for children. He seeks a new identity for CDC built on epidemiology and better state and local collaboration. Critics note concerns from ACT UP about AIDS measures and political influences.

Drunk Northwest pilots set for trial in Minneapolis
The defense for three former Northwest Airlines pilots argues blood alcohol readings do not prove impairment. The case involves Kirchner Prouse and Balzer charged with flying a Boeing 727 after drinking at a Moorhead bar. If convicted they face up to 15 years and 250000 dollars. The defense plans to challenge impairment despite readings around 0.10 to 0.12 percent.
