1 4, 1 988 the Rapid City Journal Janklow loses bid to revive Newsweek suit Christine E. Broderson Bertha Sieler in 1973 In which several policemen were Injured. Janklow's suit contended that the article suggested he prosecuted Banks in retaliation for the earlier sexual assault charges.

Circuit Court of Ap. peals dismissed Janklow's suit last April, upholding a federal Judge's decision. "Because the disputed statement in this case is imprecise, unverifiable, presented in a forum where spirited writing is expected and involves criticism of the motives and intentions of a public offical, we affirm that it is opinion, protected by the First Amendment," the appeals court said. "The implication Janklow complains of here comes from semantic ambiguity, not from false statements made by Newsweek," the appeals court said. '1986' to feature South Dakota town SIOUX FALLS (AP) The tiny South Dakota town of Hetland will be featured Tuesday night on the NBC show "1986" in a segment on the demise of small, rural towns.

An NBC team filmed the segment last July in Hetland, featuring interviews with some of the 40 residents, said Jim Boyle, Washington publicist for NBC. The show airs Tuesday at 9 p.m. and the Hetland segment will be about 11 minutes long, Boyle said. Graduates of the now-closed Hetland High School will be shown singing the school song. Hetland was chosen for the story because it illustrates the situation many rural communities are going through, Boyle said.

"They found a lot of interesting people living there who can look back and tell what it used to be like," he said.
