NEW YORK (AP) -- The New York Mets announced today that they are going to court to get an additional inning added to the end of game 5 of the World Series. The batting, pitching, and bench coaches for the Mets held a press conference earlier today. They were joined by members of the Major League Players Union. "We meant to hit those pitches from the Yankee pitchers," said the Mets batting coach. "We were confused by the irregularities of the pitches we received and believe we have been denied our right to hit." One claim specifically noted that a ...

To the Editor: Re "In Palm Beach County, Tumult Grew Hourly" (front page, Nov. 13): The 1824 presidential election was one of the most controversial in history. The winner that year was the son of a former president, who had the same first and last name as his father, and who was differentiated from his father only by his middle name. The loser that year was a candidate from Tennessee, who actually had more popular votes than the winner. Four years later, in 1828, the same two candidates ran again. This time, the candidate from Tennessee easily defeated the son ...

As you know, the trial court effectively dismissed our fair use defense. Since then, we have been attempting to position the matter for an appeal to the Ninth Circuit. In order to bring such an appeal, a Final Judgment must first be entered. Liability having been established, the remaining issues were damages, attorneys’ fees and an injunction. Counsel for the parties advised the court that they would attempt to come to an agreement on these items thus obviating a trial altogether. The first offer by the Washington Post and the Los Angeles Times was to waive all damages if ...

He vowed that those who bombed the ship in the Yemeni port at Aden six days ago would not escape American justice. "To those who attacked them we say: you will not find a safe harbor," Mr. Clinton said, speaking slowly at an emotional memorial service held at the sprawling naval base here.

ASHINGTON, Oct. 12 — In June 1995, Vice President Al Gore signed a secret agreement with Viktor S. Chernomyrdin, then the Russian prime minister, calling for an end to all Russian sales of conventional weapons to Iran by the end of 1999. But the deadline passed with no sign of a halt to such sales, despite repeated complaints late last year and this year to senior Russian officials by Mr. Gore, Secretary of State Madeleine K. Albright and Deputy Secretary of State Strobe Talbott. Moscow continues to be a significant supplier of conventional arms to Tehran despite the Gore-Chernomyrdin deal, ...

To the Editor: For years, the countries of the world, at the United Nations and elsewhere, pressured Israel, in the name of peace, to soften its stance toward the Palestinians. Israeli hard-liners insisted that mollifying Israel's critics was pointless because the criticism was so consistently one-sided and unfair. Now, after ceding Gaza and much of the West Bank to the Palestinians, permitting the Palestinians to re-arm their police force, withdrawing from Lebanon and offering the Palestinians part of Jerusalem, Israel finds itself again the target of condemnation by the Security Council (news article, Oct. 8), even though the recent violence ...

Federal judge in Texas gave gun groups a startling victory last year and set off an appeals battle that legal experts say could be the most important dispute over the Constitutional right to firearms in recent memory. The judge, Sam R. Cummings, held that history proves that the right "to keep and bear arms" in the Second Amendment gave individual citizens a right to weapons. His decision, with its emotional resonance for gun supporters, was in conflict with the vast weight of modern rulings, which have held that the amendment merely gave the states a right to keep armed ...

otheby's and Christie's tentatively agreed today to pay $512 million to settle claims that the world's most powerful auction houses cheated buyers and sellers in a price-fixing scheme that dates back to 1992. The proposed civil settlement, reported by lawyers but not officially announced, comes as prosecutors for the Justice Department are stepping up efforts to wind up a three-year criminal investigation into whether the two auction giants stiffled competition by colluding on a host of business practices. Although the proposed settlement, one of the largest in antitrust history, did not specify how the money would be raised, lawyers said ...

Oprah Winfrey may be America's most powerful black woman, but even an appearance with daytime TV's queen didn't halt Al Gore's slide among minority female voters. A bipartisan poll this month found Gore's support among that historically Democratic constituency dropped 10 points in just over a week. Time magazine reports that Gore's own internal polling finds support among black voters ''wide but soft, with only 45% of respondents saying they were definitely going to vote.'' This may explain, then, why Gore took the extraordinary step this past weekend of personally attacking a sitting Supreme Court justice. In one of ...
