International 3-19 ELECTION DAY IN BOSNIA Bosnia's elections, billed by Washington as a step toward a democratic and integrated country, took place with minor incidents as Serbs, Croats and Muslims cast their ballots with different expectations. 1 A DIFFICULT ROAD TO THE POLLS The election-day journey of Muslim and Serb refugees trying to vote illustrates the utter failure of the Bosnia peace accord to guarantee freedom of travel. 14 CLINTON DEFENDS ACTIONS ON IRAQ In an attempt to answer his critics, President Clinton said U.S. air strikes against Iraq 10 days ago ''advanced America's fundamental interests in the region.'' 1 PULLOUT TROUBLES AID WORKERS As employees of U.S. military and aid agencies prepared to leave northern Iraq, aid workers who will remain warned that the exodus would hurt their efforts. 18 CHINA'S DEVASTATING FLOODS Two months after parts of central China suffered some of the worst flooding in two centuries, a sober reckoning is under way among flood-control engineers. 1 CAPITALISM IN NORTH KOREA Capitalism has burst out in North Korea, at least for the weekend, as the North set up a conference aimed at luring foreign companies to invest in a free trade zone. 3 ''School refusers'' are the underside of Japan's educational system.4 The Pope is suffering from appendicitis and will undergo surgery.6 The Kremlin warned that Chechnya must remain part of Russia.10 National 24-44 STAFF PROBLEMS FOR DOLE The recent dismissal of two top Dole campaign strategists was the most public manifestation of longstanding internal turmoil in Mr. Dole's latest campaign for President. 1 MIDWEST LEANS TOWARD CLINTON The importance of the Middle Western states remains a constant in Presidential races. In the 1996 contest, President Clinton appears to be the favored candidate. 1 WELFARE PRESENTS OPPORTUNITY The new welfare law is still a matter of confusion in statehouses and city streets. But to some companies, it already looks like the business opportunity of a lifetime. 1 MADE FOR THE LOS ANGELES SHADE In Los Angeles, where the cars and screenplays are essential, sunglasses are the quintessential form of expression. 24 AIDS PROGRAM STRAINED A Federal program that provides AIDS drugs to patients is being strained by an increasing number of applicants and the soaring costs of therapies. 24 EVANGELICALS PRESS THEIR CAUSE Frustrated by what they consider inaction in Washington, evangelical Christians are redoubling their efforts to support persecuted Christians around the world. 26 KEEPING A LIGHTHOUSE GOING Charlotte Johnson has found a creative way to keep the Rose Island, R.I., lighthouse going: vactioners willing to pay to do the job. 28 MEDICAL RECORDS POLITICIZED Release of President Clinton's medical statements may have had as much to do with politics as with a desire to offer any new insights about his health. 36 TEXAS BAR STINGS LAWYERS The Texas Bar Association sends a message to overeager lawyers with a sting operation involving an air crash victim. 42 Metropolitan 45-51 MANY WARNINGS ON J.F.K. SECURITY For a decade, officials at Kennedy International Airport have been repeatedly told of security problems that made aircraft vulnerable to terrorist attack. The warnings began even before the country was jolted into a greater awareness of terrorism by the bomb that brought down Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, in 1988. But after the crash of Trans World Airlines Flight 800, law-enforcement investigators say it is still far too easy to breach security at Kennedy. 45 STARS OF HARD-KNOCKS ERA Nick and Pete Spanakos still draw stares when they walk down the old streets in Red Hook, Brooklyn. Identical twins who are now 58, they won boxing championships in New York City on the same night in 1955. They became instant legends in a ragged waterfront neighborhood addicted to boxing. 45 CROWDING SAID TO BE OVERSTATED Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani said there were misconceptions about school overcrowding in New York City, suggesting that the Board of Education had not addressed the problem properly and had provided confusing information about the situation to the public. While acknowledging that overcrowding exists, he said the number of children without desks was not nearly as substantial as had been reported. 45 Obituaries 51-52
