South Korea is the United States' sev­ enth-largest importer of US goods, as well as the twelfth-largest exporter of goods to the US. The United States retains thou­ sands of troops in South Korea. These troops reside near the De-Militarized Zone (DMZ) that divides North Korea from South Korea. The tense situation between the North and South is "a hot-spot in international affairs that has a potential for war," Shultz said. Shultz believes that, "North Korea is not going to go away (because it has) built-in strengths." These strengths include a large army of 1.2 million and three million mem­ bers of the Korean Workers Party, who are closely linked to the ruling regime. The North Koreans follow the philoso­ phy of junch'e, or self-reliance. The secre­ tive regime in the North has been deter­ mined to succeed economically through strict adherence tojunch'e.

The Daily Cougar (U. Houston) (U-WIRE) HOUSTON, Texas—Homecoming weekend at the Uni­ versity of Wyoming was not all about celebration this year. , Last week, 21-year-old Matthew Shepard, an openly gay student at UW, was lured from a tavern by two men who claimed to be homo­ sexual but actually proceeded to beat Shepard with the butt of a hand­ gun and stringhim upon afence. Though theylefthim to die, Shepard lived, and during Saturday's homecoming game he remained coma­ tose. {EDITOR'S NOTE: Matthew Shepard did in fact die after this piece origi­ nally went to press] It was a savage crime under any circumstances, but particularly so for Laramie, Wyo., a town with a population of less than 30,000.
