Key arrest won't sidetrack Solidarity Walesa vows

Lech Walesa said Solidarity will carry on its struggle against Poland's communist authorities despite the arrest of a major figure in the underground movement for workers' rights.

Authorities on Sunday announced the arrest of Bogdan Lis, a close friend and former aide of Solidarity founder Walesa and the most important underground figure captured since the military crackdown against the union in December of 1981.
