  The baryon junction exchange mechanism recently proposed to explain valence
baryon number transport in nuclear collisions is extended to study midrapidity
anti-hyperon production. Baryon junction-anti-junction (J anti-J) loops are
shown to enhance anti-Lambda, anti-Xi, anti-Omega yields as well as lead to
long range rapidity correlations. Results are compared to recent WA97 Pb + Pb
-> Y + anti-Y + X data.
