MILESTONES, Page 61
DIED. Larkin Smith, 45, first-term Republican member of the
U.S. House of Representatives from Mississippi; in the crash of a
Cessna; near New Augusta, Miss. Elected sheriff of Harrison County
in 1984, Smith was credited with reforming the scandal-plagued
office. He developed a law-and-order image with his attacks on drug
trafficking along the Gulf Coast. Smith was a paradigm of the
energetic young G.O.P. legislators who party strategists hope will
win control of the South -- and Congress -- in the 1990s.
