[0:01] The first by coastal blast of the

[0:03] season. The country bundles up from

[0:05] Portland to Portland and the NAACP takes

[0:09] a leading congressman to be its new

[0:12] executive.

[0:14] From ABC, this is World News Saturday.

[0:19] Here's Aaron Brown. Good evening. Over

[0:22] the next week, it is Bosnia and the

[0:24] effort to bring peace there that will

[0:26] dominate the news. There is the formal
