0 lP'Otur ASPEN, Colo. (AP) -Entertainer Claudine Longet's trial on charges of killing her lover probably will not begin on schedule Aug. 30 because the prosecution has appealed a ruling suppressing her diary and other evidence, the judge says. Miss Longet, 35, former wife of singer Andy Williams, has pleaded innocent to manslaughter in the March 21 shooting death of professional skier Spider Sabich. The prosecution appealed to the state Supreme Court after Judge George E.

Lohr granted a defense motion to suppress Miss Longet's diary and some personal papers. The judge ruled that investigators violated her rights by removing them from a dresser drawer. CH Warm Data lr Itoliontfy OcMd mum NATIONAL WIATHII SilVICI. NOAA. U.S.

INVEST YOUR MONEY ia fur WHERE IT COUNTS -IN YOUR MOORE'S BUILDING MATERIALS I Market RICHMOND (AP) The Virginia Higher Education Assistance Authority has granted its loan to help pay a young Virginian's college expenses. The recipient was Patrick L.

Bryan of Winchester, who got the loan from the Farmers Merchants National Bank of Winchester to attend Ferrum College. The amount of the loan was not immediately known. The authority, which has been in business 15 years, guarantees loans to Virginia students wishing to attend college either in or out of the state. The requirements are simple. A student just goes to a bank, savings and loan association or credit union and applies, said Fletcher Stiers, assistant director of the authority.

Stiers said Wednesday only about 2 per cent of the borrowers have defaulted on their loans since the authority went into business. In the case of default, he said, the authority pays the lending institution 90 per cent of the principal of the loan, then seeks to collect the money on its own. "We feel the collection on these defaults is proceeding very well," he said.
