Poindexter goes on trial today
WASHINGTON (AP) — Former national security adviser John
Poindexter goes on trial Monday for his part in the Iran-Contra af-
fair, the scandal that tarnished the last two years of Ronald Reagan’s
presidency.
Poindexter is accused of conspiracy, obstructing Congress and
making false statements for allegedly covering up Oliver North’s
secret Contra resupply network and lying about a 1985 shipment of
Hawk missiles to Iran. The former president gave videotaped testi-
mony last month in the case and Poindexter’s lawyers are expected
to replay ’it in court. Reagan said he instructed his staff that all
efforts to assist die Nicaraguan Contras “should be done within the

No trauma from closings law
WASHINGTON (AP) — A year-old law requiring 60 days’ no-
tice for plant closings and major layoffs is not causing the trauma for
business that opponents predicted, according to economists and the
law’s supporters.
But others say its impact on workers is marginal and that strug-
gling companies find compliance difficult and confusing.
The measure was passed by Congress in 1988 amid complaints
that it was an anti-competitive threat to industry.
Bus drivers back at picket lines
Greyhound drivers were returning to the picket lines Monday after
holding back for a day in memory of a striker crushed by a bus
driven by a replacement. Fewer companies than expected applied to
take over Greyhound’s routes. The union, meanwhile, said the com-
pany turned down a request to resume talks, but America’s only
nationwide bus system said it hasn’t formally been asked.
The two sides were reported to be divided over wages and job
security.
Educators, politicians ‘restructure’
■ %
WASHINGTON (AP) — The huge blue-and-white banner behind
the president of the National Education Association declared: “No
More Reports, No More Speeches. We Want Action.” That back-
drop signaled the group’s intention to press for innovations it says
are needed in the nation’s schools.
“Over the past five years, we at NEA have launched program
after program at the cutting edge of the movement to restructure
America’s schools,” said Keith Geiger, NEA president. Geiger’s
speech, delivered at the National Press Club, was hardly unusual for
a labor leader trying to boost the standing of his membership. But it
also illustrated the eagerness with which the NEA — along with
hundreds of other education leaders and politicians — has endorsed
the notion of “restructuring” the nation’s schools.
The idea has gained attention and momentum as President Bush
and the nation’s governors set and promote education goals.
