PD version of SysV 'news' wanted

I am looking for a public domain version of the 'news' utility found on
many SysV machines.  This allows new system messages to be read to a user.
The message list is dated per user such that each user has to read the 
message only once, then is never prompted about it again (although the 
messages may be recalled as requested). 

I would like to implement this utility on a bsd4.3 machine. (DS5000)

Thanks!
