OAKLAND CITY COUNCIL READY TO OFFER PEACE PIPE TO RAIDERS?

          The Oakland City Council "has approved a proposal to
     settle all differences" with the Raiders "and keep massive
     public debt from growing any larger," according to Laura
     Counts of the OAKLAND TRIBUNE.  Oakland City Manager Robert
     Bobb said that as soon as details are worked out with the
     team, the deal will be "fully disclosed" to the public
     before city and county officials vote on it.  Bobb said that
     he is trying to set up a meeting with the Raiders "within
     the next two weeks."  Although he would not reveal any
     details of the proposal, he said that the discussion "will
     not be limited to issues raised in the city and county's
     lawsuit against the Raiders" (OAKLAND TRIBUNE, 6/10).
