# Evidence of AIDS in '30s Africa. EVANSTON, Ill. (UPI) -- Researchers say
there is evidence AIDS first surfaced in central west Africa around 1930,
much earlier than previously suspected. The researchers say, however, they
still don't know how the disease made the jump from chimpanzees to humans.

# China birth rate may not increase. BEIJING (AP) Chinese have traditionally
wished for sons who are "dragons," yet family planning wonks don't expect
much of a birthrate rise in the Year of the Dragon, which starts Saturday.
Until recently, birthrates in China increased during dragon years, consid-
ered the best time of the 12-year Chinese zodiac cycle to have a child.
Conversely, births decreased in sheep years, seen as the worst. The thin-
king is that dragons are strong; sheep eat grass and easily succumb to
starvation when the ground freezes. But times are changing. Poor dragons:

two conservative American priests to the rank of bishop in the Episcopal
Church was denounced by church leaders who apparently fear the move will
