The show focused on the assassination and conspiracy theories and included an audio tour of an exhibit on the sixth floor. "The ghosts of good and evil inhabit this exhibit," Mr. Downey told listeners. State Judge John M. Marshall on Sunday barred Dallas County officials from interfering with Mr. Downey's nationally syndicated show. County commissioners said they feared exploitation of the exhibit, which preserves the sixth-floor perch from which the gunman killed Kennedy on Nov. 22, 1963. "This is a beautiful exhibit that took a lot of guts for Dallas to put together," Mr. Downey said. "My intent is not to exploit it, but to open the door for the whole world to appreciate." S=NEW STORY Newborn survives tornado's spin FLORENCE, Miss. - Just six days after she was born, Selisa Vance was ripped from her father's arms by a tornado and flung into the night. But after a 40-minute search, she was found safe except for a few scratches. "I think it's definitely a miracle. It's more than a miracle. It's a blessing we're alive," said Selisa's father, Curtis Vance. Mr. Vance, 28, said he heard the storm coming. "I went back to the bedroom to be with my baby. I had her up in my arms. My wife got up, and about that time there was like a big 'boom' and from that I was just spinning around. We ended up across the street," he said. The twister picked up the family's mobile home and dumped it across the street. Their car was left upside down. "I didn't know exactly where we were at the time," Mr. Vance said from Selisa's hospital room, where she was held for observation. "I looked up and saw the road. I lifted my wife over the pasture fence. We were both looking for the baby." Mary Jean Mayberry, Mrs. Vance's aunt, found Selisa, with the aid of a lightning flash, in underbrush under a tree.
