(AP) - Tim Johnson, whose managerial career was derailed by lies about his military service in Vietnam, was fired by the Blue Jays and replaced ·by Jim Fregosi Wednesday. General manager Gord Ash, who hired Johnson prior to last season, . said the move was made because the military service controversy had become a distraction in preparing the team for the. seas_on. The Blue Jay\' were 3- 12 on exhobotoon games. Fregosi, who signed to a two-year deal, was in the Blue Jays ' camp this morning. He had been with the San Francisco Giants as .a special assistant to the general manager. It is his fourth managing job. Frcgosi , with an 861-937 record , managed Philadelphia from 1991-96 and guided the Phillies to the World Series in 1993 where they lost to the Blue Jays, managed by Cito Gaston. Frcgosi, who becomes Toronto 's seventh manager, began his managerial career with the California Angels ( 1978-1981 ) and led them to the playoffs against Baltimore in 1979. He then moved on to the Chicago White Sox ( 1987- 1988) and the Phillies. Ash said he dido ' t make make a move during the winter because he felt Johnson deserved "the chance to have the opportunity to come to spring training and see if it could work.''

For any city that manages this well, it provides a marvelous platform lO present their city to a national and intematiomil audience," said Michael Collins, executive vice president of the Los Angeles Convention & Visitors Bureau. Like the rest of California, Los Angeles has always held a place of ambivalence in the American psyche - a city of opportunity where newcomers can make their wildest dreams come true and a city where urban nightmares of poverty, bigotry and violence are fully realized. L.A. appears to be on a roll . More than $8. b11lion in big new construction projects have b~n completed or ·are under way. The list includes trophy buildings, such as the Getty,, and the Staples Sports A.{ena. Scheduled for completion in October, the $350 million arena will house the Los Angeles lakers, hockey's Los Angeles Kings and, next August, the convention. The . recession prompted by defense cutbacks il\ the early '90s is over. The vacuum lt\ft by the decline of the aerospace industry has been filled in large measure by growth in the entenainment industry, software .development and multimedia. Booming international trade has created thousands of jobs in the twin pons of Los Angeles and long Beach. The last really big earthquake to shake the city came in 1994 when the Nonhridge quake killed 75 people and caused $25 billion in damage. The last devastating wildfire season in Southern California was in 1996. And people seem to be doing a betterjob of getting along. Racial tensions exacerbated by the police beating of black motori'st King, by the riots that followed and by political debates over immigration and affirmative action appear to have relaxed. "At least L.A. is beginning to shake off its status as a unique dystopia. It always fought this utopiadystopia image.

North Korean Vice Foreign Minister Kim Gye Gwan said his government was ~·very happy" with TuesdaY's agreement. He might have good reason in addition to the spuds. The United'States agreed that in return for the right to inspect the Kumchang-ni underground site, it would help North Korea increase potato yields as a step "to improve political and economic relations between the .two countries." Food shonages and faminet:elated illnesses have 'killed up to 2 million ofNonh Korea's 23 million people during the past three years, according to U.S. coe!'essional estimates. · While insisting food donations would 'not be part of any deal, the . United States last year pledged 500,000 tons of additional food aid to Nonh Korea in response to an . appeal for donations by the U.N. ·World Food Program. Not all of the 500,000 tons has been delivered, but a U.S. official said the reamining amount would be shipped to Nonh Korea. The World Food Program is - seeking 200,000 additional tons in unfulfilled pledges made last year by other countries and the Clinton administration is considering that request, said the official, who spoke in Washington on condition of anonymity. South Korean media, quoting unidentified South Korean Foreign . Ministry sources today, said Washington agreed to give an additional 600,000 tons of food and ease economic sanctions against the communist state. The World FO<ld Program, is expected to issue another worldwide appeal in June after an assessment of Nonh Korea's needs this Spring. Henry Sokolski, executive director of The NonprQliferation Policy Education Center in Washington, said the 500,000 tons of grain will cost U.S . taxpayers $165 million annually - " well more than the $300 million." "It appears that we are pouring good U.S . food aid down a Nonh Korean hole," said House International Relations Committee Chairman Benjamin Gilman, R-N. Y. He supponed the agreement but said it "smacks of a 'food for access' deal, which could lead to fun her provocative actions on the pan of the Nonh Koreans to exton further concessions from the U.S." The United States is also supplying Pyongyang with nearly half of its heavy oil under a 1994 agreement to fr~eze 'what Washington believed was North Korea's promising nuclear weapons program .. . By JOHN DIAMOND Aaaoclated Preaa Writer WASHINGTON Nuclear weapons secrets could ieak to China inadvertently, FBI Director Louis Frech says, and the Energy Oepanment is taking steps to make sure that a casual e-mail or fax doesn't give away sensitive military secrets. As the Clinton administration and Congress struggled to close holes in the security surrounding the nation's nuclear weapons laboratories, top officials said sophisticated spies might not be the only outlet for classified information on nuclear weapons. Freeh told a House hearing Wednesday that the FBI still is trying to determine whether a leak to China of weapons information from Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico occurred through the actual passing of documents or simply from viewing and memorizing information that was seen or read. Frech said he could not rule out information getting into Chinese hands by ways in which a person "is not intending to tr"-nsmit secret information." . . Sometimes "information gets transferred between 'two ·scientists, and at least· one of them ... had· no intent at all to transfer top secret · information," making the investigalions more difficult, Frech said. Security at federal weapons labs has been troublesome for years, the FBI chief said. "The culture has not been a security-conscious, or certainly never a counterintelligence security-conscious one," he said. "That's been the greatest vulnerability." · Seeking to change that culture, Energy Secretary Bill Richardson imposed new security measuies foremail and other electronic communications from the national weapons labs Wednesday.
