WORLD NEWS BRIEFS AFGHANISTAN

Socialists lose in Senegal election: Allies of Senegal's president claimed victory Monday in weekend legislative elections, wrest­ ing control of parliament from the 40-year grip of the opposition Socialists. Unofficial results compiled by independent and government media appeared to back the claims by the rul­ ing coalition of President Abdoulaye Wade. Junta in talks with opposition: Myanmar's ruling junta said Monday it was pursuing reconciliation with democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi, insisting the overtures to the Nobel Peace Prize winner were not a "public relations stunt." The statement was the clearest sign yet of the junta's desire to end the political deadlock since the generals refused to hand over power to Suu Kyi's party after it won gen­ eral elections in 1990.

These words have never rung more true than in the most recent games between the two squads. Two years ago, the Wolverines delivered a crushing blow to Notre Dame's season when they beat the Irish in the regional playoffs. Last year, the teams waged a tight regular season battle that the Irish eventually pulled out in extra innings. This year, the 40-6-1 Irish appear to have the 22-18 Wolverines outmatched. Ranked number one in both the Collegiate Baseball Poll and the Baseball America Poll, Notre Dame has displayed an uncanny BRIAN PUCEVICHfThe Observer ability to keep themselves close Irish rlghtflelder Brian Stavisky hits out of the cleanup spot against Villanova on April 22.
