He was 70 and had been performing his old hits including his signature tune, Yellow Bird for tourists in Waikiki until last year.

Mr. Lyman was, for a while, king, back when tiki gods walked the Earth, in the golden age of pupu platters. His realm was exotica, a term taken from the title of a 1959 album by Martin Denny, the genre's other giant, in whose combo Mr. Lyman played vibes. Exotica style blended cool jazz with primitive percussion instruments, bird calls and other jungle noises to evoke a steamy tropical mood.

Mr. Lyman once told an interviewer that he had hit upon his mixture spontaneously, 'throwing out a few squawks during a performance of the Vera Cruz movie theme. The audience squawked back, and a formula was born.

By Michael Van SickJer Palm Beach Post Staff Writer WEST PALM BEACH Opposition is mounting to Mayor Joel Daves' idea to spend $515,000 on plans for a new library complex without knowing how the city will pay the total price tag for the $30 million structure. If city commissioners approve the expense during tonight's meeting at city hall, they'll have to do so over the objections of the chamber of commerce. The chamber has political clout.

Its offices are on city land that it rents for $1 a year. Its political action committee is a generous contributor during city election campaigns. In a letter dated Feb. 28, chamber President Dennis Grady said the city still doesn't know how it will raise its $15 million share of the project Private donors are supposed to contribute me other half. "Until such time as a public funding source is identified, the chamber board could see no benefit to the city moving forward," Grady said.

Daves wants the $515,000 to pay for the design of the library, which would replace the existing 40-year-old library at the eastern tip of Clematis Street Daves says that private donors won't ante up until they're convinced the city stands behind his project Commissioners Bill Moss, Ike Robinson and AI Zucaro have agreed with Daves that the library should move forward. "I don't think the chamber is looking at the big picture on this," Moss said. "A library will do so much for downtown." Robinson and Zucaro could not be reached Sunday. But Commissioners Jim Exline and Mary Brandenburg, both running for reelection, say they won't approve the money tonight In 2000, they approved $130,000 for a design competition for the library. "I'm not comfortable approving any more money until we know more about how the private fund-raising is coming," said Ex-line, who said he generally favors the project Exline's opponents in the March 12 race for District 1, Robbie Littles and Leah Schad, have said they support spending the $515,000.

"We need a library. If that simple," Schad said. Brandenburg has opposed the project because she said she doesn't think the city needs a new library when there's more pressing problems like sewer repair and crime. "My biggest regret was approving that $130,000 for the design competition," Brandenburg said. "The mayor has been asking for money every step of the way without showing us how he's going to pay for it" Brandenburg's opponent in the District 3 race, Kimberly Mitchell, said she supports a new library, but said she would vote against the $515,000 because the public needs to know more about the private campaign to raise cash.

The police report someone tried to use Hanna's card at it SunTrust Bank branch only seven minutes after he was at the ATM. Police couldn't confirm whether the' fwo incidents are related, but are warning ATM customers to report any suspicious machines. "If it doesn't look like a natural part pf the machine, especially if you use the same ATV1 machine, that should raise your suspicions," By Michelle Mundy Palm Beach Post Staff Writer DELRAY BEACH Police are investigating two incidents in which sophisticated thieves attached electronic devices to automatic teller machines to steal account information from bank cards.

The latest scam attempt was discovered when Delray Beach resident James Marra noticed a Visa sign covering the usual card slot at the Bank of America ATM at 1001 E. Atlantic Ave. on Saturday after 9 p.m. The only way to start a transaction was to swipe the card through a device affixed to the machine. Then, there was the small black box above the key pad.

When Marra swiped his card, the machine said there was an error. He tried to cancel the transaction. Then he called police. A similar scheme was detected at a Boca Raton ATM about a month ago when Joseph Hanna used the teller machine at a Bank of America branch at 4000 N. Federal Highway.

And to staffers, the president said: "That's what we're paid for, boys. We're going to take care of this. Well find out who did this. Someone is going to pay." Fleischer then eased into White House policy on Middle East violence without mentioning his controversial statement last week insinuating that former President Clinton's policies triggered violence in the Middle East The same day he said it he retracted it as a regrettable mistake. But Jeff Auslander said of the statement "I think he was right on target" Auslander, a member of the Republican Jewish Coalition and a Boynton Beach resident said "I was sorry to see him get criticized a bit" Regarding the Middle East Fleischer said, The president's vision of how to aciiieve peace in the Middle East is very clear and very direct The president believes strongly we need to stand by our allies and.

Sam Fox, national chairman of the Republican Jewish Coalition, ended the program reading some of the audience's written questions to Fleischer. They asked the press secretary about Social Security, abortion, campaign finance reform and the United States' involvement in the Middle East peace process. The final question came from a nice Jewish mother. "My daughter, Hilda, is single, well-educated and attractive.

Are you also single?" Fleischer, looking embarrassed, quickly regained his composure: "One, if she's well-educated, she's ahead of me. Two, if she's attractive, she wouldn't be interested.
