Medical Problems Continue for Zsa Zsa Gabor

The 94-year-old is back at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center.

1. Zsa Zsa Gabor was taken to Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center in Westwood on Wednesday because of poor circulation in her left leg, her publicist said. Gabor, 94, whose right leg was partially amputated in January, had been at home since being released from the hospital last month after a fight with pneumonia. Gabor has ``no blood flow'' to her left leg, publicist John Blanchette said.

2. Today is the 20th anniversary of the Rodney King beating at the hands of Los Angeles police officers, the videotape of which gave it worldwide attention. The April 1992 acquittal of four officers involved in King's arrest touched off the worst race riots in the city's history. By the time order was restored more than 50 people had been killed and property loss was estimated at $1 billion.

3.  A public meeting will be held at 6 p.m. tonight at St. Albans Episcopal Church, 580 Hilgard Ave., to discuss plans to demolish a faculty building on the UCLA campus and replace it with a six-story, 282-room hotel and conference center.
