Court _will have final word
on woman draft registrants
WASHING TON ( AP) - The courts likely will have the final word in
draft registration for women, and
legal scholars say that probably
means women will be signing up for

registering women, a concept supported by President Carter and his
advisers.
But Thomas Emerson, a professor
of constitutional law at Yale University, says, "Whichever way it goes
(in Congress), there will be a suit

service.

Congress seems cool to the idea of

Carter
(Continued from pa~e I)
paign and debate him, but Powell
said the president's absence is an
asset to the challenger.
"He's sort of got the field to himself with the president locked up in
the White House," Powell said.
He said the loss was a major lilow
to the Kennedy campaign because it
came in the senator's home region.
"We've all known all along that a
win by Carter in Kennedy's home
court would be a major setback for
the loser," Powell said. He said the
same rule would apply were Kennedy to defeat Carter in a southern
primary.
"He went into the back yard of
Sen. Kennedy and he won big," said
RobertS. Strauss, Carter's national
campaign manager.
And Powell added that if Kennedy
"can't win here, when he has
everything going for him... then
where do you win?''

He stopped short of suggesting
that the challenger quit the race,
saying he wouldn't presume to tell
KennedY what to do.
With 434 of the . 486 Maine town
caucuses tallied, the Democratic
State Committee reported this outcome :
Carter, 13,660 votes, or 45 percen~
and 870 local delegates, or 46 percent
of the delegates selected solar.

COLUMBUS - The Division of
Wildlife of the Ohio Department of
Natural Resources (ODNR) will
receive $2,737,189.66 in federal funds
for fish and wildlife restoration in
Ohio and the state's HWlter Safety
and Trapper Education program.
The funds will be allocated in two
instalhnent.s from excise taxes
collected during the last fiscal year.
Funds for fish restoration
programs come from a 10 percent
excise tax on fishing rods, reels and
lures. Money for wildlife restoration
and hunter safety and trapper
education is derived from an 11 percent excise tax on sporting arms and
ammunition, a 10 percent tax on
pistols and revolvers, and an 11 percent tax on certain archery equip-

Kennedy : 12,041, or 39 percent,
and 752 delegates, or 40 percent.
Brown: 4,404, or 14 percent, for 252
delegates, or 13 percent.
Undecided : 502, or 2 percent, for
'!/delegates, or I percent.
The delegates elected by the local
caucuses will go to the state convention May 16 and Maine's 22
delegates to the Democratic
National Convention will be chosen
there. The candidates will share in
those 22 nominating votes roughly in
proportion to their delegate strength
at the town conventions.
Maine Gov. Joseph Brennan, Kennedy's campaign chairman, insisted
that Kennedy had scored a "great
victory" and claimed that Carter actually lost because he didn't get 50
percent of the vote.
It was the first time Maine
Democrats had held their caucuses
all on the same day. The Republican
caucuses still are staged over a
period of weeks and won't be completed until next month.
On March 4, one week after New
Hampshire votes, Vermont and
Massachusetts will hold their
presidential primaries. A Boston
Globe poll published Monday
showed Kennedy well ahead in his
home state.
Then the competition moves
south, with primaries in Florida,
Alabama and Carter's Georgia on
March II.
Carter's opening victory in Iowa
translated into 29 delegate votes for

filed. There's no way that the courts
can avoid it."
David Landau, a staff attorney at
the American Civil Liberties Union
office here, vowed, "The day that
the president signs (male-anly
regwstration), we will be in court."
Carter anno1111ced Friday be wants to register men and women 18 and
19 years of age, saying, '"There is no
distinction possible, on the basis of
ability or perfonnance." White
House officials said a major factor
in his decision waa the prospect of
court challenges if women were excluded. The Supreme Court has yet
to hear a draft case, but lower court
decisions since 1974 have tended to
open new avenues for women in the
military.
Phyllis Schlafly, a leading opponent of the Equal Rights Amendment, said, "There's no way
Congress will register women."
She plans to focus on Congress in
her battle against registration for
women, although she does not rule
out court action if she Is unsuccessful.
"The doctrine of military
necessity clearly requires the exclusion of women from the draft and
combat," said Mrs. Schlafly' a
lawyer. \
But Martha Field, a constitutional
law specialist at Harvard, said that
would apply only if women were
unable to perform in the military
and added, "I can't think of any constitutional principle that someone
the presidential nomination. Ken-

nedy got 15 there.
Sunday's returns apparently will
mean another 10 delegates for Carter and nine more for Kennedy.
It will lake 1,666 to choose a
Democratic presidential nominee.

A ·number of experts on constititutionallaw said when the maleonly draft was in effect, various

grounds that military necessity and

But "the whole court position on

America would admit its."crimes"
in Iran since it helped the deposed
monarch regain his throne in 1953.
''If America agrees to our view this
may be possible," it quoted him as
saying in an interview with French
radio and television.
When his offer was first made
public in an interview published
Monday in the French newspaper Le
Monde, the State Department said
there will be no profession of guilt
from the U.S. government.
Iran's revolutionary patriarch,
the Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini,
leveled a strong warning to the
Soviet Union to refrain from
aggression against Islamic countries , the radio reported in a broad·
cast monitored in London. It said the

•

warning came in a message sent to

Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev and
quoted him ln part as saying:
"Any aggression against Third
World countries and Islamic countries, particularly in this region, is
against the norms which should constitute a proper basis and foundation
between nations."
The portion of Khomeini 's '
message broadcast by the radio,
monitored in London, did not mention by name the Soviet armed intervention in Mghanistan, an overwhelmingly Moslem nation to the
east of Iran and, like Iran, to the
south of the Soviet Union.
In the Le Monde interview, BaniSadr said the revolutionary govern·
ment no longer demands the return
of the shah before the Americans are
released.

The president said the hostages
would be released if the U.S. govern-

ment :
I. Acknowledged U.S. "crimes"
against the Iranian people since the
CIA helped overthrow leftist Prime
Minister Mohammed Mossadegh
and restored the shah to power.
2. Recognized the right of the
revolutionary regime "to obtain the
extradition of the shah and the
restitution of his fortune; ''
3. Pledged to "no longer interfere
in our affairs."
Bani.S.dr told correspondent Eric
Rouleau of Le Monde that his
proposals were the result of a consensus of the Revolutionary Council,
which he now beads, and was submitted to Ayatollah Ruhollah
Khomeini, the 7S.year-old leader of
the revolutionary regime.

··If he accepts them, it would be up
to President Carter to respond in
tum, " said Bani.S.dr.
He said he had made a separate
proposal to the council and
Khomeini that control of the
hostages be transferred in the next
few days from the yoWig militants
who seized the embassy on Nov. 4 to
a .third party. He said force would
not be used.
The president also said he favored
combining a tribunal to study the
U.S. government's role in Iran and
Waldheim's proposed international
commission to probe allegationa
against the shah. But he said the
hostages could be freed before the
inquiries are completed.
The toll had risen to 50 killed and
100 wounded in five days of fighting

Hostage negotiations at 'sensitive' stage

WASlllNGTON (AP) - The
FBI has evidence crime syndicate bosses were planning as
recently as last week to call a
summit conference and carve
new boundaries in underworld
fiefdoms spanning the nation,
knowledgeable sources say.
But FBI officials now believe
the session was canceled after
public disclosure of bureau investigations, including Brilab,
the sources said.
The secret summit, involving
crime bosses from an undetennined number of cities, was
said to equal in scope the
notorious 1957 conclave of more
\han 60 mob leaders in Apalachin,
N.Y.

Mayor Fred Hoffman announced
that bids for hose and equipment for
the new fire truck will be advertised tliis month. The price of
limestone for Middleport residents
was raised to $6 a ton.
The previous price was $5 and the

an hike by the supplier.
Council decided to continue

now and· Councilman Allen King expressed appreciation for the repair
of the traffic light in lower Middleport at the Pearl St. intersection.
He also reported that there apparently is not any help fortbcoming

The most striking example of the
counterproductive nature of the new

petroleum exploration and production in the president's hastily constructed embargo on exports of hightechnology items.
Throughout the 1970s, the Soviet
Union has beeri the world's leading
oil producer, surpassing even Sa udi
Arabia. But, like other regions of the
world, the USSR now is rapidly
depleting its reserves of readily accessible "easy" oil.

The CIA estimates that the USSR
last year produced a record-setting
11.7 million ba rrels of oil daily, but
that figure was lower than Soviet
planners expected. Similar shortfalls have occurred since the mid1970s.
The CIA is predicting that the
Soviets this yea r will fail to surpass
their 1979 prod uction and that there
will be a gradual decline in production throughout the 1980s. The USSR
eventually could be forced to shift
from its current status as a net exporter of oil to a net importer.

Capitol Ideas
WASHINGTON ( AP) - The FBI's
undercover political corruption investigation not only is posing important ethical questions for members of Congress, it's also providing
a wealth of material for Capitol Hill
banter.
When Florida Republican Rep.
Richard Kelly went on television to
present his version, he had what

Jr. called a "tremendous listening

causes, is talking about setting up "a
consulting service for members of
Congress" to help identify "the real
Arabs from the FBI agents."
And even some of those implicated
have found humor in their
predicament.
Sen. Harrison Williams, R-N.J. ,
the only senator sa id to he implicated in the FBI operation, told a
banquet thrown by the New Jersey
Chamber of Corrunerce that he set
out to squelch speculation in the
press that he might run for governor.
"Somehow I thin~&lt;.{ overdid it," he
said.
New Jersey Gov. Brendan Byrne
- who has not been linked to the investi gation - told the same audience : "I'm teaching a course at Princeton entitled 'What's going on in
New Jersey.' The only problem I'm
having is that the FBI won't release
the reading list. "
Meanwhile, a House aide who
requested anonymity offered one
possible defense for any member

cash in his pocket : "He could have

Business mirror

NEW YORK (AP ) - The risk
manager is now established in the
executive suite, generally at a
minimum level of vice president,
and usually considered important
enough to report di rectly to the top
guy.
Just 20 or so years ago his colmterpart was a reliable clerk with a
knowledge of insurance, but insurance then wasn't the major cost
factor it is today.
It was, that is to say, before big
malpractice suits, double-digit in·
flation and prohibitive replacement
.costs. Economic society today is
fraught with risks that could bury a
company in an earthquake of bills.'
"There are thousand of considerations in a big company
today," says John R. Cox, president
of Insurance Company of North
America. "Just think of all the
things that you do in a day where
there is a potential loss of property.
And then consider how many more a
corporation has .''
It must cover itself against

workers' injuries, fire, patent loss,
customer suits, faulty products,
theft, failure to perform. It might
even have to insure against rain or
the possibility it won't rain.
The list of risks may involve the
hiring, training and administration
of professional engineers or scientists. It might include guards at factories, or making certain that
iluplicate computer tapes a re
stored .
One court decision or a regulatory
change might make a company
liable where it wasn't before, so the
risk manager might have to supervise a staff of lawyers as well as
other professionals.
Mistakes could mean financial
disaster. Replacement costs,
perhaps resulting from fire, might
he beyond a company's ability to
fund. Aside [rom loss, premiums are
costly. The pipeline from Alaska's
North Slope to Valdez, for example,
involved workemen's compensation
premiums of $200 million.
Premiwns, according to Cox, now
may account for about 3 percent of a
product's price, compared with just
one-half percent 20 years ago. '
Therefore , the risk manager. If it
were not for the big salaries that go
with the job of executive or senior
vice president, one might be inclined
to think of him as "the risk
manager, poor fellow."

In a broad sense, his job involves
several options : Working with an
outside insurance broker, selfinsuring through a captive insurance company, or no insUrance
- "going bare," as Cox puts it.
For large companies, the latter
really isn't an option; the cost of insurance warrants the purchase. But

for a small manufacturer, the
isurance sometimes exceeds the
ability to buy. Garment manufacturers, for example, sometimes are
faced with that decision.
The captive company, which dates
to 1792 and of which there are about
1,000, has become especially popular
in the past few years as a means of
cutting . c osts. A big advantage is
that the parent has the use of its funds for a longer period of time; it
doesn't tie up huge amounts in
premium payments to others. And
there might be tax advantages.

Holely highways
costly to Ohioans
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - Ohio
motorists could save $250 million a
year if the state's roads were in better condition, says Ohio Department
of Transportation Director David L.
Weir.
"Driving on poor pavements increases fuel consumption, auto
maintenance and tire wear," he
said.
The state's highways are
deteriorating 50 percent faster than
they're being repaired, Weir said. So
Ohioans are paying about 2.3 cents
more per mile to drive than if the
roads were in good condition, he added.
An increase in the state's 7-i:entsa-gallon gasoline tax could be used
to improve the highway's conditions,
Weir said. But lawmakers rejected a
proposed 4-cents-a-gallon hike last
year, instead opting for higher
motor vehicle registration fees which haven't enabled the state to
maintain and improve its primary
highway system, he said.
Highway revenue receipts from
July through November 1979 were
$9.9 million less than the year
before, Weir said. That's because of
a drop in gasoline tax funds stemming from curtailed driving by
motor ists, he said.
Weir expects a possible loss of
$23.7 million in motor fuel tax
revenue during the first half of this
biennium. By July 1980, the department could lose $17.8 million in
revenue.
That loss would affect local governments primarily, he said.
In December, Weir ordered a
departmental hiring .freeze. 1o
reduce spending. High-priority highway jobs, not yet in the construction
phase, also were set aside.
Gov. James A. Rhodes and
legislative leaders plan to meet
Wednesday to discuss another
proposal to boost Ohio's gasoline tax
and a subsequent increase in the
department's $1.2 billion biennial
budget.

may not only have gone after
wrongdoers but created the bogus
situation in which they were invited
to do wrong is to say the least disturbing. As The Washington Post
observed editorially, " No citizen member of Congress or no - should
be required to prove his integrity by
resisting temptation.''
Following the recent death of actress Jean Seberg and the FBI's
acknowledgement of the campaign
conducted during the '60s to destroy
her reputation, Director William H.
Webster declared: "We are out of
that business forever.' '
In the interests of a shaken Congress, an FBI still in the process of
recovering from the excesses of its
past and questioning coWJtry, it is to
be hoped that he meant it.

In 1974 with its tenacious unraveling of Watergate, Congress knew
one of its finest moments.
And a moment was about as long
as it lasted.
In the years since, we have had
from the houses on the Hill the South
Korean influence-peddling scandal,
the Wilbur Mills-FaMe Foxe and
Wayne Hays-Elizabeth Ray shows,
the payroll-swindling conviction of
Rep. Charles C. Diggs Jr., 0-Mich.,
the indictment of Rep. Daniel J .
Flood, D-Pa., on bribery charges
and the reprimanding of Sen. Herman E. Talmadge, 0-Ga. , [or
misuse of office and campaign
funds.
And those are merely the biggest
cases and names. Assorted lesser
congressional fish have been involved in an inquiry into favors received
from military contractors and in
-bribery, payroll kickback and other
''financial misconduct" incidents.
Clearly, these have not been the
best of times for the image of the
legislative branch.
And they are not getting any better with the current revelations of
the "sting" (if that word hasn't been
part of the coll6quial language, it
certainly will be now) operation in
which the FBI sucked a score of congressional and other public officials
into apparently compromising situations through the promise of Arab
dollars.
From House Speaker Thomas
" Tip" O'Neill down, members
speaking for publication - very few
are not - ~ professing themselves
distraught and dismayed.
As well they might be. The allegations, although stlll only that and
directly involving only a relative few
of the 535 members, reflect on the
entire Congress. They suggest,
observes Rep. Henry S. Reuss, !}Wis., that it "is a sick institution."
That it may be. But it may not be
alone.
Caution is advisable at this point
in passing judgment on the affair
and any or all participants because
so much has yet to be disclosed as to
the genesis, scope and ultimate goal
of the super-secret FBI operation
that became public knowledge as the
result of press leaks.
The initial dlsclbsures, however,
raise questions at least potentially
as serious as the alleged misdeeds
revealed. Such as what directed FBI
attention specifically to those individuals who have been identified.
Is there evidence of prior hanky,
panky sufficient to justify the
elaborate ambush? Or were the
federal lawmen fishing in largely
uncharted waters to see what might
turn up?
.
The case of good-guy Sen. Larry
Pressler, R-8.0 ., who could not be
bought for $50,000 in a proposed
special-interest legislation deal,
would seem to suggest at least an
element of the latter.
The prospect that federal agents

recent action, The Tornadoes, In

to a perfect 14-0 mark.
Coach Larry Wolfe's Young Tornadoes, who have displayed a very
potent offense all season long, did so
again against a nwch bigger
Galllpolilequad.
The Tornadoes, who controlled the
opening Up raced to a 11-4 first quarter lead, then displayed an almost
flawless defensive effort in the
second period holding their opponents to just three pointa.
In that stanza the vialtors tallied
twelve pointa of their own, making
the score 23-7 at the baH.

In the final two periods the Tornado girls rolled the dice coming up
with two lucky numbers: lucky number 13 In the third stanza and 7 in the

XIII winter olympics begins
today at beautiful village
LAKE PLACID, N.Y. (AP) Hounded by continuing political
problems and haunted by logistical
nightmares, the Gamea of the xm
Winter Olympiad began on schedule
today in this picturesque map-dot
village nestled in tl)e Adirondack
Mountains.
The official opening of the Games,
complete with the ceremonial
parade of nearly 1,300 athletes, is
scheduled for Wednesc~Jy , But the
hockey competition got a jump on
the other sporl.!l with six games on
toctay's schedule.
For American athletes the 1980
Games could yield a rec:ord winter
medal haul. The United States won
10 medals In the 1978 Winter Games
at Innsbruck and never has captured
more than the dozen it won the last
time Lake Placid hoeted these
Games in 1932.
But stars like champion speed
skaters Erie and Beth Heiden, crOSII
country skier Bill Koch, figure
skaters Unda Fratianne and Charlie
Tickner and skiers Phil Mabre IUid
Cindy Nelaon could make this a
memorable Olympiad for the United
States.
Most of the hockey Interest centered on the awesome Soviet Union
team, considered almost certain to
win the hockey gold. The Russia1111
opened against Japan tonight. In
other games, Norway met
Czechoslovakia, Canada played
Holland, the United States faced
Sweden, West Gennany oppoaed
Romania and Poland took 111
Finland.
The young American team, composed largely of college players, got
a close look at the Soviets In a 1o-3
thrashing last Saturday In New
York. Coach Herb Brooka thought he
detected some extra verve in the
play of the Russia1111, brought on,
perhaps, by the current world
political situation.
" The Russians have always been
subtle physically before," seid
Brooks. "I've never seen them quite
as physical as they were against us.
When Khrushchev said that they'd ,
bury us, I didn't think he meant the
American hockey team of 1980. They
vented a lot that seemed to be inside
them in that game."
· The Soviet squad includes many of
the stars such as goalie Vladislav
Tretiak and forw, rd Boris
Mikhailov, who have become
famillar to North American fa1111 in
the last eight years in games against
National Hockey League teams.
Brooks smiles at matching them up
against his young American team.
"Eight years ago, they were
playing against Team Canada," the
coach said. "I've got six or eight
kids on my team who were playing
peewee hockey eight years ago.''
With the opening ceremonlea just
24 hours away, the Taiwan issue
remained clouded. Athletes from
that nation, demanding to compete
aa the Republic of China under their
own flag and with their own anthem,
plaMed to carry their suit against
the International Olympic .Com·
mittee into the New York Stata
Court of Appeala today. On Monday
In a middle-level court, Olympic officiala got reversed an original
ruling supporting the Taiwanese
position.
The IOC had ordered the changes
to clear the way for participation In
these Games by athletes from
mainland China. That triggered the
original suit by the Taiwanese. U the
higher court alllo supporta the IOC, it

could send the Taiwan team home.
While the Taiwan question weaved
Ita way through the judicial network,
American Olympic officiaill presented to the IOC President Garter's
case for moving, po~~tponlng or can·
ceiling the 1980 Moscow Games
because of the Soviet intervention In
Afghanistan.
"I couldn't say If we won any pointe or 10111 any," said Robert Kane,
president of the United States Olympic Conunlttee. "I was pleased, ·
however, that their questions in- . ._ _ _ _
dlcated at least that oin- pointa were
being understood. That's been dlf·
ficult to get aci'OSII, even In our own

BY SCOT!' WOLFE
RACINE - In recent girlB ' high
school basketball action , the
Southern Tornadoes got back on the
winning track by defeating Federal
Hocking 46--43 in an action packed
thriller.
Coach CoMee Enslen's Tornadoes
jumped Into an early lead, faltered
midway through the second quarter,
then hit the comeback trail and rode
in for the vitory. The Tornadoes are
now 11·2 overall and &amp;-1 in the
league.
Tammy Smith got the hosts on the
scoreboard first , but Lori Russell
came right back to tie the score at 22 In the first minute of play.
At first, things certainly looked
like they would go the Tornado way
as they built up an &amp;-2 lead on
baskets by Mel Weese, Jody
Grueser, and Cindy Evans. But the
Lancers didn't see It that way and
pulled back within two as the period
ended at 11-9.
In the second canto the Lancers
regrouped and really took charge as
they put together an 18 point attack.
This hot streak combined with a
sticky zone defense propelled them
to a rl-20 halftime lead.
The early monents of the third
period forecasted a gloomy outlook
for the Southern girls as they fell12
points behind at 33-21.
Then the excitement started to
build leading up to the dramatic
finish. The Tornadoes IVhlrled up a
storm of their own and pulled within
three at the buzzer to make It a 35--32
ball game.
During thla stretch the hometown
girlll exhibited some fine team play
combined with a lot of individual ef.
fort. During the stretch Della Jolmson and Cindy Evans hauled down
severallmportant rebounds.
Early In the final stanza the Tornadoettes moved into the passing
lane then tried to overtake their OJ&gt;-

Irrational outcome
. WASHINGTON (NEA) - A
: careful examination of the economic
: sanctions President Carter recently
: imposed upon the Soviet Union sug-gests that the actions may penalize
·· the United States far more than the
: nation supposedly being punished.
· There is no quarrel w1th Carter's
· detennination to force the Soviets to
pay a price for their military invaSIOn of Afghanistan, but the president may have blundered by
substituting moral indignatiOn and
precipitous action for a measured
response and a coherent strategy.
The most striking example of the
counterproductive nature of the new
White House policy involves the illelusion of all equipment used in
petroleum exploration and production in the president's hastily constructed embargo on exports of hightechnology items.
Throughout the 1970s, the Soviet
Union has beeri the world's leading
oil producer, surpassing even Sa udi
Arabia. But, like other regions of the
world, the USSR now is rapidly
depleting its reserves of readily accessible "easy" oil.
The Soviets now face the complex
task of locating and producing their
"hard" oil, with deposit.'; found in
frigid, desolate and remote areas
such as western Siberia - a task the
Central Intelli ge nce Agency
predicts will he increasingly difficult.
The CIA estimates that the USSR
last year produced a record-setting
11.7 million ba rrels of oil daily, but
that figure was lower than Soviet
planners expected. Similar shortfalls have occurred since the mid1970s.
The CIA is predicting that the
Soviets this yea r will fail to surpass
their 1979 prod uction and that there
will be a gradual decline in production throughout the 1980s. The USSR
eventually could be forced to shift
from its current status as a net exporter of oil to a net importer.
Depriving the Soviets of the equipment necessary to meet internal
demands for petroleum products
probably will force them to turn to

needs.

Kelly publicly acknowledged
taking $25,000 in an alleged bribery
scheme in which FBI agents posed
as wealthy Ara b sheiks and
businessmen. But he denied doing
anything illegal, saying he was
merely in the process of conducting
an investigation of his own .
The next day, Kelly came onto the
House floor and took a sea t with his
Republican colleagues- but ra pidly
found himself virtually alone as :he
seats around him emptied.
'Tve never even seen $25,000 in

Carter's response to Soviet adventurism in Afghanistan undoubtedly
is more acceptable than this country's reaction to the USSR's earlier
military repression in Hungary and
Czechoslovakia - occasions on

But when the occasion demanded

Capitol Ideas
WASHINGTON ( AP) - The FBI's
undercover political corruption investigation not only is posing important ethical questions for members of Congress, it's also providing
a wealth of material for Capitol Hill
banter.
When Florida Republican Rep.
Richard Kelly went on television to
present his version, he had what
House Speaker Thomas P. O'Neill
Jr. called a "tremendous listening
audience. At least of House mem-

LAKE PLACID, N. Y. (AP) -

causes, is talking about setting up "a
consulting service for members of
Congress" to help identify "the real
Arabs from the FBI agents."
And even some of those implicated
have found humor in their
predicament.
Sen. Harrison Williams, R-N.J. ,
the only senator sa id to he implicated in the FBI operation, told a
banquet thrown by the New Jersey
Chamber of Corrunerce that he set
out to squelch speculation in the
press that he might run for governor.
"Somehow I thin~&lt;.{ overdid it," he
said.
New Jersey Gov. Brendan Byrne
- who has not been linked to the investi gation - told the same audience : "I'm teaching a course at Princeton entitled 'What's going on in
New Jersey.' The only problem I'm
having is that the FBI won't release
the reading list. "
Meanwhile, a House aide who
requested anonymity offered one
possible defense for any member
caught on FBI videotape stuffing
cash in his pocket : "He could have
the tape played backwards to show
he was actually giving the money

Business mirror

NEW YORK (AP ) - The risk
manager is now established in the
executive suite, generally at a
minimum level of vice president,
and usually considered important
enough to report di rectly to the top
guy.
Just 20 or so years ago his colmterpart was a reliable clerk with a
knowledge of insurance, but insurance then wasn't the major cost
factor it is today.
It was, that is to say, before big
malpractice suits, double-digit in·
flation and prohibitive replacement
.costs. Economic society today is
fraught with risks that could bury a
company in an earthquake of bills.'
"There are thousand of considerations in a big company
today," says John R. Cox, president
of Insurance Company of North
America. "Just think of all the
things that you do in a day where
there is a potential loss of property.
And then consider how many more a
corporation has .''
It must cover itself against

workers' injuries, fire, patent loss,
customer suits, faulty products,
theft, failure to perform. It might
even have to insure against rain or
the possibility it won't rain.
The list of risks may involve the
hiring, training and administration
of professional engineers or scientists. It might include guards at factories, or making certain that
iluplicate computer tapes a re
stored .
One court decision or a regulatory
change might make a company
liable where it wasn't before, so the
risk manager might have to supervise a staff of lawyers as well as
other professionals.
Mistakes could mean financial
disaster. Replacement costs,
perhaps resulting from fire, might
he beyond a company's ability to
fund. Aside [rom loss, premiums are
costly. The pipeline from Alaska's
North Slope to Valdez, for example,
involved workemen's compensation
premiums of $200 million.
Premiwns, according to Cox, now
may account for about 3 percent of a
product's price, compared with just
one-half percent 20 years ago. '
Therefore , the risk manager. If it
were not for the big salaries that go
with the job of executive or senior
vice president, one might be inclined
to think of him as "the risk
manager, poor fellow."

In a broad sense, his job involves
several options : Working with an
outside insurance broker, selfinsuring through a captive insurance company, or no insUrance
- "going bare," as Cox puts it.
For large companies, the latter
really isn't an option; the cost of insurance warrants the purchase. But

for a small manufacturer, the
isurance sometimes exceeds the
ability to buy. Garment manufacturers, for example, sometimes are
faced with that decision.
The captive company, which dates
to 1792 and of which there are about
1,000, has become especially popular
in the past few years as a means of
cutting . c osts. A big advantage is
that the parent has the use of its funds for a longer period of time; it
doesn't tie up huge amounts in
premium payments to others. And
there might be tax advantages.

Holely highways
costly to Ohioans
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - Ohio
motorists could save $250 million a
year if the state's roads were in better condition, says Ohio Department
of Transportation Director David L.
Weir.
"Driving on poor pavements increases fuel consumption, auto
maintenance and tire wear," he
said.
The state's highways are
deteriorating 50 percent faster than
they're being repaired, Weir said. So
Ohioans are paying about 2.3 cents
more per mile to drive than if the
roads were in good condition, he added.
An increase in the state's 7-i:entsa-gallon gasoline tax could be used
to improve the highway's conditions,
Weir said. But lawmakers rejected a
proposed 4-cents-a-gallon hike last
year, instead opting for higher
motor vehicle registration fees which haven't enabled the state to
maintain and improve its primary
highway system, he said.
Highway revenue receipts from
July through November 1979 were
$9.9 million less than the year
before, Weir said. That's because of
a drop in gasoline tax funds stemming from curtailed driving by
motor ists, he said.
Weir expects a possible loss of
$23.7 million in motor fuel tax
revenue during the first half of this
biennium. By July 1980, the department could lose $17.8 million in
revenue.
That loss would affect local governments primarily, he said.
In December, Weir ordered a
departmental hiring .freeze. 1o
reduce spending. High-priority highway jobs, not yet in the construction
phase, also were set aside.
Gov. James A. Rhodes and
legislative leaders plan to meet
Wednesday to discuss another
proposal to boost Ohio's gasoline tax
and a subsequent increase in the
department's $1.2 billion biennial
budget.

may not only have gone after
wrongdoers but created the bogus
situation in which they were invited
to do wrong is to say the least disturbing. As The Washington Post
observed editorially, " No citizen member of Congress or no - should
be required to prove his integrity by
resisting temptation.''
Following the recent death of actress Jean Seberg and the FBI's
acknowledgement of the campaign
conducted during the '60s to destroy
her reputation, Director William H.
Webster declared: "We are out of
that business forever.' '
In the interests of a shaken Congress, an FBI still in the process of
recovering from the excesses of its
past and questioning coWJtry, it is to
be hoped that he meant it.

In 1974 with its tenacious unraveling of Watergate, Congress knew
one of its finest moments.
And a moment was about as long
as it lasted.
In the years since, we have had
from the houses on the Hill the South
Korean influence-peddling scandal,
the Wilbur Mills-FaMe Foxe and
Wayne Hays-Elizabeth Ray shows,
the payroll-swindling conviction of
Rep. Charles C. Diggs Jr., 0-Mich.,
the indictment of Rep. Daniel J .
Flood, D-Pa., on bribery charges
and the reprimanding of Sen. Herman E. Talmadge, 0-Ga. , [or
misuse of office and campaign
funds.
And those are merely the biggest
cases and names. Assorted lesser
congressional fish have been involved in an inquiry into favors received
from military contractors and in
-bribery, payroll kickback and other
''financial misconduct" incidents.
Clearly, these have not been the
best of times for the image of the
legislative branch.
And they are not getting any better with the current revelations of
the "sting" (if that word hasn't been
part of the coll6quial language, it
certainly will be now) operation in
which the FBI sucked a score of congressional and other public officials
into apparently compromising situations through the promise of Arab
dollars.
From House Speaker Thomas
" Tip" O'Neill down, members
speaking for publication - very few
are not - ~ professing themselves
distraught and dismayed.
As well they might be. The allegations, although stlll only that and
directly involving only a relative few
of the 535 members, reflect on the
entire Congress. They suggest,
observes Rep. Henry S. Reuss, !}Wis., that it "is a sick institution."
That it may be. But it may not be
alone.
Caution is advisable at this point
in passing judgment on the affair
and any or all participants because
so much has yet to be disclosed as to
the genesis, scope and ultimate goal
of the super-secret FBI operation
that became public knowledge as the
result of press leaks.
The initial dlsclbsures, however,
raise questions at least potentially
as serious as the alleged misdeeds
revealed. Such as what directed FBI
attention specifically to those individuals who have been identified.
Is there evidence of prior hanky,
panky sufficient to justify the
elaborate ambush? Or were the
federal lawmen fishing in largely
uncharted waters to see what might
turn up?
.
The case of good-guy Sen. Larry
Pressler, R-8.0 ., who could not be
bought for $50,000 in a proposed
special-interest legislation deal,
would seem to suggest at least an
element of the latter.
The prospect that federal agents

XIII winter olympics begins
today at beautiful village
LAKE PLACID, N.Y. (AP) Hounded by continuing political
problems and haunted by logistical
nightmares, the Gamea of the xm
Winter Olympiad began on schedule
today in this picturesque map-dot
village nestled in tl)e Adirondack
Mountains.
The official opening of the Games,
complete with the ceremonial
parade of nearly 1,300 athletes, is
scheduled for Wednesc~Jy , But the
hockey competition got a jump on
the other sporl.!l with six games on
toctay's schedule.
For American athletes the 1980
Games could yield a rec:ord winter
medal haul. The United States won
10 medals In the 1978 Winter Games
at Innsbruck and never has captured
more than the dozen it won the last
time Lake Placid hoeted these
Games in 1932.
But stars like champion speed
skaters Erie and Beth Heiden, crOSII
country skier Bill Koch, figure
skaters Unda Fratianne and Charlie
Tickner and skiers Phil Mabre IUid
Cindy Nelaon could make this a
memorable Olympiad for the United
States.
Most of the hockey Interest centered on the awesome Soviet Union
team, considered almost certain to
win the hockey gold. The Russia1111
opened against Japan tonight. In
other games, Norway met
Czechoslovakia, Canada played
Holland, the United States faced
Sweden, West Gennany oppoaed
Romania and Poland took 111
Finland.
The young American team, composed largely of college players, got
a close look at the Soviets In a 1o-3
thrashing last Saturday In New
York. Coach Herb Brooka thought he
detected some extra verve in the
play of the Russia1111, brought on,
perhaps, by the current world
political situation.
" The Russians have always been
subtle physically before," seid
Brooks. "I've never seen them quite
as physical as they were against us.
When Khrushchev said that they'd ,
bury us, I didn't think he meant the
American hockey team of 1980. They
vented a lot that seemed to be inside
them in that game."
· The Soviet squad includes many of
the stars such as goalie Vladislav
Tretiak and forw, rd Boris
Mikhailov, who have become
famillar to North American fa1111 in
the last eight years in games against
National Hockey League teams.
Brooks smiles at matching them up
against his young American team.
"Eight years ago, they were
playing against Team Canada," the
coach said. "I've got six or eight
kids on my team who were playing
peewee hockey eight years ago.''
With the opening ceremonlea just
24 hours away, the Taiwan issue
remained clouded. Athletes from
that nation, demanding to compete
aa the Republic of China under their
own flag and with their own anthem,
plaMed to carry their suit against
the International Olympic .Com·
mittee into the New York Stata
Court of Appeala today. On Monday
In a middle-level court, Olympic officiala got reversed an original
ruling supporting the Taiwanese
position.
The IOC had ordered the changes
to clear the way for participation In
these Games by athletes from
mainland China. That triggered the
original suit by the Taiwanese. U the
higher court alllo supporta the IOC, it

could send the Taiwan team home.
While the Taiwan question weaved
Ita way through the judicial network,
American Olympic officiaill presented to the IOC President Garter's
case for moving, po~~tponlng or can·
ceiling the 1980 Moscow Games
because of the Soviet intervention In
Afghanistan.
"I couldn't say If we won any pointe or 10111 any," said Robert Kane,
president of the United States Olympic Conunlttee. "I was pleased, ·
however, that their questions in- . ._ _ _ _

Southern girls

BY SCOT!' WOLFE
RACINE - In recent girlB ' high
school basketball action , the
Southern Tornadoes got back on the
winning track by defeating Federal
Hocking 46--43 in an action packed
thriller.
Coach CoMee Enslen's Tornadoes
jumped Into an early lead, faltered
midway through the second quarter,
then hit the comeback trail and rode
in for the vitory. The Tornadoes are
now 11·2 overall and &amp;-1 in the
league.
Tammy Smith got the hosts on the
scoreboard first , but Lori Russell
came right back to tie the score at 22 In the first minute of play.
At first, things certainly looked
like they would go the Tornado way
as they built up an &amp;-2 lead on
baskets by Mel Weese, Jody
Grueser, and Cindy Evans. But the
Lancers didn't see It that way and
pulled back within two as the period
ended at 11-9.
In the second canto the Lancers
regrouped and really took charge as
they put together an 18 point attack.
This hot streak combined with a
sticky zone defense propelled them
to a rl-20 halftime lead.
The early monents of the third
period forecasted a gloomy outlook
for the Southern girls as they fell12
points behind at 33-21.
Then the excitement started to
build leading up to the dramatic
finish. The Tornadoes IVhlrled up a
storm of their own and pulled within
three at the buzzer to make It a 35--32
ball game.
During thla stretch the hometown
girlll exhibited some fine team play
combined with a lot of individual ef.
fort. During the stretch Della Jolmson and Cindy Evans hauled down
severallmportant rebounds.
Early In the final stanza the Tornadoettes moved into the passing
lane then tried to overtake their OJ&gt;-

WINE GOT ON SCARF

POLLY'S PROBLEM
DEAR POLLY - I hope someone
can tell me how to remove wine

DEAR MR M.S. - Often we use
the word silk rather loosely as so
many fabrics look and feel like silk
·and really are not. So do test any
fabric before using the usual remedy
for removing wine stains.
Stretch fabric with stains over a
large bowl, fasten with a rubber
band, sprinkle salt on the stains and
pour boiling water through the
stains. Hold the tea ketUe of boiling
water up as high as possible.

SEED WARDS ARE MISNAMED
(Editor's Note: Dr. Lamar Miller
has asked Dr. Fred Jensen, of the
Ohio University College of
Osteopathic Medicine faculty, to be
a guest colwnnist this week.)
QUESTION: What are seed warts
and what causes them' I have been
plagued with this problem since a
very young age.
· ANSWER: Warts (verrucae) are
contagious skin tumors caused by a
virus that has gained entrance into
the body surface cells (called
epidermal cells). Although the same
virus causes all varieties of hwnan
warts, the way a wart looks depends
on its location and how the skin reacts. A wart on the sole of the foot, for
instance, is called a plantar wart
and those that erupt in clusters on
the forehead are often described as
flat warts. The moist verruca which
sometimes develops in the rectal
area is known as a fig wart. A seed
wart (also called common wart) is
usually found on the hands and gets
its name from the small black
specks or "seeds" within it. These
specks are actually not seeds at all,
but clotted small blood vessels
(called capillaries) which have extended into the wart itself.
The wart virus is a parasite, and
takes over the chemical processes of
the infected epidennal cell. Not only
does the virus cause the diseased
cells to multiply in great nunibers,
but the virus protein building blocks
resemble those of the infected cell.
The result is that the diseased cell
reproduces viral substance, along
with the cell's own protein, under the
mistaken notion all the material is
its own. It is like an energetic
worker who has the wrong blueprint,
and turns out huge numbers of wor·
lbless products. The skin growth
known as a wart, then, is actually a
large population of virus infected
epidermal cells;
QUESTION: I have periods where
there are no signs of them. Then all
of a sudden I get a new bumper crop.
Why is this?
ANSWER : Warts can persist and
spread within the same person for
great periods of time. The reason the
virus seems inactive between the
"bumper crops" is that your body
has built up enough resistance
during those periods to control the
wart virus in sort of a "cold war"
situation. When something happens
to decrease your resistance and
general good health, the scales are
IJjlped in balance ~ ·l!le virus, and
, the flowll tl. - - begilw _...
Virus particles can e8CIIpe froni the
diseased cells to infect nearby skin
surfaces, and if you pick and scratch
at the warts you will surely spread
· the virus on your hands and finger·
nails to infect other parts of your
body. This contagious activity is
probably what is mP&gt;ln! ~y

'.'seeding."
QUESTION : I have been given
acid bums and treatment lfith an
electric needle to get rid of warts,
but even these painful remedies
have not worked. Why are these
treatments used'
ANSWER: As you have already
seen, warts can come back several
years arter they have been removed.
Traditional ' treatment has been
directed at actually destroying the
tissue that the virus lives in, without
damaging the normal skin. This has
included application of chemiCill
agents (such as salicylic acid),
sharp excision, electrosurgery and
freezing with liquid nitrogen. Other
treatments said to be successful in·
elude either the direct application of
moistened vitamin C (ascorbic
acid), or Vitamin E in its liquid, oily
fonn .
QUESTION: I asked my dermatologist.if there was a pill I could
take which would get rid of the
problem. He said, "yes" - but with
side effects. What would these effects be?
ANSWER: The pill you mention is
probably Vitamin A. It is useful for
maintaining the health of the skin.
The usual dose is 50,000 to 100,000
units a day. This regimen should not
be maintained for more than two or
three montha because of possible
side effects including I~ of ape
petite, skin itching and scaling, loss
of hair, painful swellings along the '
bones, disordered liver function like
cirrhosis and headaches with in·
creased intracranial pressure. I
believe the most important thing I
can leave you with in our discussion
of warts is that overall good health
measures can help you ward off or
get rid of this problem that has been
with humans for centuries.

MODERN TWIST: EX·
BOYFRIEND STEAlS HER
NEW BOYFRIEND!
By Helen and Sue Bottel
DEAR HElEN AND SUE:
Jack and I were getting along
great until my ex-boyfriend, Steve,
stopped in one night while Jack was
at my house.
I thought there might be
fireworks, but instead he wo boys
hit if off like you wouldn't believe.
Steve stayed all el!ening. Tbe next
night he was over again, knowing
Jack would be there.
It went on for two weeks: Jack and
. Steve, and me somewhere in the
background. Finally I wasn't even in
the background any more - they
preferred each other.
I always suspected that Steve was
"bi," but I didn't think it of Jack.
Am I the type who is attracted to
semi-gay men, or am I just UNLUCKY?
DEAR UNLUCKY:
Let's say you were unlucky twice,
but surely it can't happen again! SUE
DEAR UN :
On the other hand, some women

gravitate to gay or AC.DC men
because they offer friendship
without demands - well, at least
urgent demands - and they seem
more uoderstanding. Are you one of
these?-HEIEN
HELEN AND SUE:

I'm newly married and not the
world's greatest housekeeper. My
sister-in-law is! I work outside. She
doesn't.
Cuess what she gave me for
Christmas : A note saying, "We can't
aford a great big gifty, so I'll make
your house look really nifty. Name
the day and hour, and I'll be there to
clean and scour."
It's true they're very hard up right
now, but don't you think she really
meant, "You aren't good enough for
my brother"?- EDGY
EDGY:
I don't know your sister-in-law, or
whether or not she disapproves of
you. So I can only guess that you're
being a tad too touchy here. Perhaps
she offered housecleaning in the
same spirit a hard-up friend would
give baby-!litting in lieu of a bouglt
gift.
So give het the benefit of the doubt
until you know her better. Okay? HELEN

NOTE FROM SUE: But I still say
(and Mom privately agrees) your sin-I has as much tact, if not hurtfulness, as the person who gives the
family fatty a weight-loss book for
Christmas.

WINE GOT ON SCARF

POLLY'S PROBLEM
DEAR POLLY - I hope someone
can tell me how to remove wine

DEAR MR M.S. - Often we use
the word silk rather loosely as so
many fabrics look and feel like silk
·and really are not. So do test any
fabric before using the usual remedy
for removing wine stains.
Stretch fabric with stains over a
large bowl, fasten with a rubber
band, sprinkle salt on the stains and
pour boiling water through the
stains. Hold the tea ketUe of boiling
water up as high as possible.

SEED WARDS ARE MISNAMED
(Editor's Note: Dr. Lamar Miller
has asked Dr. Fred Jensen, of the
Ohio University College of
Osteopathic Medicine faculty, to be
a guest colwnnist this week.)
QUESTION: What are seed warts
and what causes them' I have been
plagued with this problem since a
very young age.
· ANSWER: Warts (verrucae) are
contagious skin tumors caused by a
virus that has gained entrance into
the body surface cells (called
epidermal cells). Although the same
virus causes all varieties of hwnan
warts, the way a wart looks depends
on its location and how the skin reacts. A wart on the sole of the foot, for
instance, is called a plantar wart
and those that erupt in clusters on
the forehead are often described as
flat warts. The moist verruca which
sometimes develops in the rectal
area is known as a fig wart. A seed
wart (also called common wart) is
usually found on the hands and gets
its name from the small black
specks or "seeds" within it. These
specks are actually not seeds at all,
but clotted small blood vessels
(called capillaries) which have extended into the wart itself.
The wart virus is a parasite, and
takes over the chemical processes of
the infected epidennal cell. Not only
does the virus cause the diseased
cells to multiply in great nunibers,
but the virus protein building blocks
resemble those of the infected cell.
The result is that the diseased cell
reproduces viral substance, along
with the cell's own protein, under the
mistaken notion all the material is
its own. It is like an energetic
worker who has the wrong blueprint,
and turns out huge numbers of wor·
lbless products. The skin growth
known as a wart, then, is actually a
large population of virus infected
epidermal cells;
QUESTION: I have periods where
there are no signs of them. Then all
of a sudden I get a new bumper crop.
Why is this?
ANSWER : Warts can persist and
spread within the same person for
great periods of time. The reason the
virus seems inactive between the
"bumper crops" is that your body
has built up enough resistance
during those periods to control the
wart virus in sort of a "cold war"
situation. When something happens
to decrease your resistance and
general good health, the scales are
IJjlped in balance ~ ·l!le virus, and
, the flowll tl. - - begilw _...
Virus particles can e8CIIpe froni the
diseased cells to infect nearby skin
surfaces, and if you pick and scratch
at the warts you will surely spread
· the virus on your hands and finger·
nails to infect other parts of your
body. This contagious activity is
probably what is mP&gt;ln! ~y

'.'seeding."
QUESTION : I have been given
acid bums and treatment lfith an
electric needle to get rid of warts,
but even these painful remedies
have not worked. Why are these
treatments used'
ANSWER: As you have already
seen, warts can come back several
years arter they have been removed.
Traditional ' treatment has been
directed at actually destroying the
tissue that the virus lives in, without
damaging the normal skin. This has
included application of chemiCill
agents (such as salicylic acid),
sharp excision, electrosurgery and
freezing with liquid nitrogen. Other
treatments said to be successful in·
elude either the direct application of
moistened vitamin C (ascorbic
acid), or Vitamin E in its liquid, oily
fonn .
QUESTION: I asked my dermatologist.if there was a pill I could
take which would get rid of the
problem. He said, "yes" - but with
side effects. What would these effects be?
ANSWER: The pill you mention is
probably Vitamin A. It is useful for
maintaining the health of the skin.
The usual dose is 50,000 to 100,000
units a day. This regimen should not
be maintained for more than two or
three montha because of possible
side effects including I~ of ape
petite, skin itching and scaling, loss
of hair, painful swellings along the '
bones, disordered liver function like
cirrhosis and headaches with in·
creased intracranial pressure. I
believe the most important thing I
can leave you with in our discussion
of warts is that overall good health
measures can help you ward off or
get rid of this problem that has been
with humans for centuries.

MODERN TWIST: EX·
BOYFRIEND STEAlS HER
NEW BOYFRIEND!
By Helen and Sue Bottel
DEAR HElEN AND SUE:
Jack and I were getting along
great until my ex-boyfriend, Steve,
stopped in one night while Jack was
at my house.
I thought there might be
fireworks, but instead he wo boys
hit if off like you wouldn't believe.
Steve stayed all el!ening. Tbe next
night he was over again, knowing
Jack would be there.
It went on for two weeks: Jack and
. Steve, and me somewhere in the
background. Finally I wasn't even in
the background any more - they
preferred each other.
I always suspected that Steve was
"bi," but I didn't think it of Jack.
Am I the type who is attracted to
semi-gay men, or am I just UNLUCKY?
DEAR UNLUCKY:
Let's say you were unlucky twice,
but surely it can't happen again! SUE
DEAR UN :
On the other hand, some women

gravitate to gay or AC.DC men
because they offer friendship
without demands - well, at least
urgent demands - and they seem
more uoderstanding. Are you one of
these?-HEIEN
HELEN AND SUE:

I'm newly married and not the
world's greatest housekeeper. My
sister-in-law is! I work outside. She
doesn't.
Cuess what she gave me for
Christmas : A note saying, "We can't
aford a great big gifty, so I'll make
your house look really nifty. Name
the day and hour, and I'll be there to
clean and scour."
It's true they're very hard up right
now, but don't you think she really
meant, "You aren't good enough for
my brother"?- EDGY
EDGY:
I don't know your sister-in-law, or
whether or not she disapproves of
you. So I can only guess that you're
being a tad too touchy here. Perhaps
she offered housecleaning in the
same spirit a hard-up friend would
give baby-!litting in lieu of a bouglt
gift.
So give het the benefit of the doubt
until you know her better. Okay? HELEN

NOTE FROM SUE: But I still say
(and Mom privately agrees) your sin-I has as much tact, if not hurtfulness, as the person who gives the
family fatty a weight-loss book for
Christmas.

Hearts are
'stars' of
Valentine 's Day
NEWYORK {AP) ~They still say
"I love you" -every February 14on that you can rely. And you can
also rely on the fact that to speak the
eloquent language of love, "you gotta have heart," advises the Jewelry
lndWitry Cowtcil.
A gilt of a heart locket or pin has
always been a Valentine's Day
favorite, the council points out. This
year, ltowever, there are an abun·
dance of hearts to choose from,
ranging from mad to mod.
Select your own valentine from
pendants In heart shapes that could
be plain, fluted, cut out, filigreed,
free fonn, or embelllshed with gem·
stones. Most popular gemstone for
Valentine's day Is, of course, st.
Valentine's own birthstone, the
amethyst.
Ever since television star Arlene
Francis started the "heart on a
string" fad by wearing {and never
taking off) the little diamond·
studded heart given her by her
hWiband, heart pendants have been
"in," fashionably speaking, says
Kae McCulloch, fashion consultant
for the coWlcll.
One of the most popular heart pendants today is the little gold heart
with tiny seed pearls, which captures all of spring's new dictates
about jewelry, she says. Gold is
riding high; so are chains, and
pearla are enjoying a renaissan~e of
popularity.
Of course, the recipient wiU be
equally delighted with a pair of
hearkhaped earrings, a heart pin,
or a solid gold heart ring, Ms. McCulloch notes.
Or why not give her her very own
birthstone set ln a gold heart ring?

Hearts are
'stars' of
Valentine 's Day
NEWYORK {AP) ~They still say
"I love you" -every February 14on that you can rely. And you can
also rely on the fact that to speak the
eloquent language of love, "you gotta have heart," advises the Jewelry
lndWitry Cowtcil.
A gilt of a heart locket or pin has
always been a Valentine's Day
favorite, the council points out. This
year, ltowever, there are an abun·
dance of hearts to choose from,
ranging from mad to mod.
Select your own valentine from
pendants In heart shapes that could
be plain, fluted, cut out, filigreed,
free fonn, or embelllshed with gem·
stones. Most popular gemstone for
Valentine's day Is, of course, st.
Valentine's own birthstone, the
amethyst.
Ever since television star Arlene
Francis started the "heart on a
string" fad by wearing {and never
taking off) the little diamond·
studded heart given her by her
hWiband, heart pendants have been
"in," fashionably speaking, says
Kae McCulloch, fashion consultant
for the coWlcll.
One of the most popular heart pendants today is the little gold heart
with tiny seed pearls, which captures all of spring's new dictates
about jewelry, she says. Gold is
riding high; so are chains, and
pearla are enjoying a renaissan~e of
popularity.
Of course, the recipient wiU be
equally delighted with a pair of
hearkhaped earrings, a heart pin,
or a solid gold heart ring, Ms. McCulloch notes.
Or why not give her her very own
birthstone set ln a gold heart ring?

WASIDNGTON (AP) - The FBI
has evidence crime syndicate bosses
were planning as recently as last
week to call a summit conference
and carve new boundaries in underworld fiefdoms spanning the
nation, knowledgeable sources say.
But FBI officials now believe the
session was canceled after public
disclosure of bureau investigations,
including Brilab, the sources said.
The secret summit, involving
crime bosses [rom an undetennined
nwnber of cities, was said to equal in
scope the notorious 1957 conclave of
more than 60 mob leaders in
Apalachin, N.Y.
The FBI learned of the planned
session through several major in·
vestigations of organized crime, including Brilab, the undercover
probe of mob involvement in insurance bribery and kickbacks in
the Southwest, said sources familiar
with the investigations.
The sources, who requested
anonymity, said mob leaders were
drafting plans to alter the boundaries and tenns of agreements
giving each of them exclusive rights

national crime syndicate did, indeed, exist.
Until then, J. Edgar Hoover, the
FBI director, had resisted urgings to
investigate organized crime. After
New York state police disclosed the
Apalachin summit, Hoover was forced to pay attention to crime syndicates.
But it was not until the 1970s that
the bureau focused on organized
crime in a major way.
When William H. Webster took
over as director two years ago, he

to a certain geographic region. The
mobsters involved are the bosses of
the syndicate the FBI calls La Cosa
Nostra.
"This included narcotics traffic
and everything else organized crime
is involved in," one source said.
" There were a variety of
modifications in the works."
The sources declined to say where
the swrunit was to have taken place.
The first hint of the underworld
plan surfaced when a letter from
Assistant Attorney General Philip
Heymann was made public in
federal court in Los Angeles on
Friday. Heymann wrote that the
FBI "is on the verge of developing
evidence regarding a massive,
nationwide conspiracy relating to
the allocation of territories in the
United States for certain types of
illicit activities."
The planned conclave was
reminiscent of the Apalachin summit, which startled the nation with
the strongest evidence to date that a

between Turkoman rebels and
revolutionary guardsmen in Gonbad-e-Kavus, in northeast Iran :lO
miles from the Soviet border, according to the official Gulf news
agency in a report from Tehran
quoting a morning newspaper there.
In continuing fighting overnight,
the Turcomans had seized two army
tanks, it said. The town of 60,000 persons had been extensively damaged
by heavy artillery, the report said.
The Turcomans are one of Iran's
ethnic minorites seeking a measure

COVINGTON, Ky. (AP) - Fire
reconstruction expert Terry Hoyle
says he "found no indication" that
aluminum wiring was in any way
responsible for the May 28, 1977, fire
at the Beverly Hills Supper Oub.
Hoyle, president of Hoyle,
Klausing and Associates of Chicago,
testified before a federal jury Monday in regard to his investigation of
the fire , in which 165 persons were
killed and 50 injured.
He headed a team, hired by the
owners al the nightclub, thst
examined the fire debris and interviewed 250 patrons and employees of the Southgate club.
Lawyers for defendants in the civil
litigation - aluminum, wiring and
electrical-{ievice manufacturers have been presenting their own expert witnesses to counter the contentions made by the plaintiffs' experts.
The plaintiffs, including those injured and the families of persons
killed in the fire, allege that the
blaze was the result of faulty oldstyle aluminum wiring. They also
charge the industry conspired to
cover up tbese faults.
Hoyle said he found no aluminum
branch circuit wiring in the receptionist's cubbyhole outside the Zebra

Room, where attorneys for the plain.tifls contend the fire started.
He also testified that burning tar
paper caused the thick black smoke
that spread through the nightclub.
The tar paper had ~n placed on the
top of much of the club before a
second story was added, and was
still in place at the time of the fire,
he said.
The smoke overcame the filters
and was distributed throughout the
club, he added.
In addition to \ln!ir disagreement
over the cause of the fire, experts for
the two sides dispute where the fire
began.
Hoyle said that in his view, the
most probable causes of the fire
were a wan outlet on the north wall
of the alcove area or the pump cord
which came from outside the Zebra
Room.

One person killed
in train collision
ORlEANS ROAD, W.Va. (AP) Two Chessie System freight trains
collided head-on early today in
Morgan County, killing one person
and injuring at least four others,
authorities said.
Two tanker cars containing
hydrochloric acid overturned when
50 cars derailed in the accident, but
no leaks were reported.
Barbara Jean Hopkins, one of the
train crew members, was killed in
the collision, according to Lloyd
Lewis, a spokesman for Chessie.
Four men were taken to Morgan '
County Hospital in Berkeley
Springs. One was then transferred
by helicopter to a hospital in Hager·
stown, Md., according tc Ed Zadal,
hospital administrator.
The accident occurred about 5: 45
a.m., according to Vera Leclercq, a
Chessie System spokeswoman in ·
Baltimore.
One train had two locomotives and
125 cars, 49 of them empty, the
spokeswoman said. The other train
had two locomotives and 42 cars, she .
said.
Another Chessie spokesman, J.H.
Griffin, said the' derailment was expected to delay Amtrak passengers
riding the eastbound Shenandoah.
He said the Shenandoah travels
from Cincinnati, Ohio, and usually
arrives in Washington at about 9

Retirement resignations were accepted from Lioyd Moore, high school
custodian, May 31, and Don Stivers, a teacher, who is ill. Carol Crow was hired
as a substitute teacher. The board adopted a policy on "incompletes" for
students in grades seven through 12. Board members questioned the policy in
that a student receiving two A's for two weeks work might fail as a result.
Mrs. Dorothy Oliver, a tea;her, said that normally an "A" student will make
up the work right away. Dan Morris, director of curriculum, indicated he also
favors the policy because under the present policy a student can drag out an incomplete for four years.
The new policy states that a student must pass two six-weeks of work course
to receive credit for the semester. An incomplete should be made up within a
maximum of one six weeks marking period after it is received. Exceptions will
be at the discretion of the administration. Incompletes will be reported as "F"
on report cards and permanent record folders.
An incomplete received the last six weeks of school cannot be carried over to
the next year without special pennission. The board declared Jan. 5, J an. 31

It was also noted that the survey
contains infonnation that can be applied in managing lanns and
woodlands, in selecting sites for
roads, building of ponds and
buildings. It would also inform persons if land was ideal for fanning or
suitable for a housing development.
Counties presently being surveyed
are Athens, Jackson Hocking and
Perry.
If Meigs County would agree to the
survey it would be two years before
work would begin. The first step for
the commissioners would be to Write
a letter of intent.
It was pointed out that such a survey would be most effective in the
Tuppers Plains area where a
problem exists in land drainage for a
sewage system. No action was
taken, however.

prepared to pay the costs of baseball, wrestlmg and track programs, he sa1d.
The board voted to purchase three new school buses lor next year. The stale
must approve. Supt. Gleason urged the board to purchase three bu.ses a year to
function on a regular plan. Dwight Goins, administrative assistant, reported
that many of the district's Tl buses are old with high mileage. Supt. Gleason
said the last buses purchased by the district were in 1977. Board Member
Snowden asked about making application to purchase more than three buses
with some state aid. He inquired about additional part time -help at the bus
garage since the buses are so old and are breakmg down. Goins will report on
the additional help question at the next meeting. Three buses have been in use
since 1969.
Supt. Gleason recommended 180 days of sick leave for non-certified per·
sonnel. Snowden also questioned this. He said sick leave for non~ertified per·
sonnel had been increased from 155 to 160 days this year.
Gleason said the 160 days for non-(!ertified employes was set before teachers
were allowed 180 days and that there is an attorney general's opinion that contracts for certified and non-(!ertified employes should be the same on sick leave.
Snowden said negotiations between the non-certified employes and the board
are to reopen in June. However, Gleason said negotiations, according to contract, can only take up calamity days and salaries.

Meigs Local School District Board member Robert Snowden challenged
Superintendent David Gleason Tuesday night for breaking board policy and letting four students off who were caught drinking during a school activity recently.
Snowden said he would check into litigation on the controversial expulsion
rule, indicating that Gleason broke board policy when he did not force the
students to stay out of school for the full semester.
The board took no action to change the student expulsion policy.
Flaring tempers and public participation marked Tuesday's five hour board
session at the junior high school in Middleport. Approximately 75 people,
teachers and parents attended.
The meeting moved along smoothly until" subjects such as money for booster
organizations, expulsion, hiring of attorneys and the purchase of school buses
arose.
The board approved a request by Treasurer Jane Wagner for an advance
withdrawal of $490,000 from the county auditor. Also, Mrs. Wagner reported
that a tnLSt fund to benefit the district has been transferred from California.
111e board accepted -the resignations of Diane Haddad, elementary art
teacher at the end of the school year; Robert Downey as junior high intramural
coach, and Gladys Barrett as a substitute custodian. Granted leaves of absence
were Laura Harrison, a bus driver, for six months and Enuna Ashley, a
teacher, for six weeks.
Gordon Fisher was named girls' varsity track coach and Celia McCoy was
named a junior class advisor. She will receive $250 for the assignment this year,
the same salary as the other advisor, Dorothy Oliver.
Supt. David Gleason had recommended a payment of $141 for Ms. McCoy for
the remainder of the year. However, Mrs. Oliver said that little had been done

Ohio traffic deaths
show big hike in '79
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP ) - The
number of traffic deaths in Ohio increased at a greater rate in 1979 than
at any time since World War II, according to statistics released by the
Oepartrilent of Highway Safety.
Figures showed 2,219 persons
were killed on the state's roadways
last year- an increase of 13 percent
over 1978.
Highway Safety officials said the
latest fatality figure was the state's
highest annual death toll since 1973,
but still was far short of the record of
2,778 set in 1969.
The 1979 increase, however, was
the largest single-year increase in
accident fatalities since 1945, when
the federal government ended
gasoline rationing and thousands of
American servicemen returned
from overseas.
Ohio Highway Safety Director
Robert Chiaramonte called the
figures "deeply disturbing." He said
his office has been working closely
with the Highway Patrol and local
police agencies to fund special "gettough" enforcement programs for

1900.

.

Department spokesman Dennis
Whalen said . Tuesday four such
programs are already under way in
the Cincinnati, Dayton, Columbus
and Delaware areas. Whalen said
National Highway Traffic Safety Ad·
ministration moneyis being used to
provide extra manpower for road
enforcement.
" Not every penny of the money we
get goes into enforcement," Whalen

said. "Some of it goes Into
automobile and bicycle safety
programs and alcohol abuse
education."
The department said a rash of onecar accidents accounted for most of
last year's increase. Figures showed
the rate of multiple-car crashes increased about 2 percent, while
deaths from single-vehicle crashes
rose 26 percent.
Olficials"said excessive speed was
to blame for nearly one quarter of all
accidents. Another major cause,
they said, was driving under the influence of alcohol.
"We've got a relatively small
group of drivers in Ohio who refuse
to obey the speed limit, insist on
driving after they've been drtnklng
and constantly ignore traffic laws,"
Chiaramonte said. "We prefer to
educate people and get them to comply with the law voluntarily, but If
arresting these irresponsible driveri
is the only way to keep them fronl ·
causing accidents, we'll do It ~
hard way."
The Ohio Highway Patrol ha8
already reactivated its statewide an:
ti·speeding program known ~
OASIS. The program uses federal
funds to keep extra~uty troopers
out on high-accident roadways tO
deter potential speeders.
.
Whalen said, " Our studiCll have
shown that more than 70 percent of
the increase in fatal accidents laat
year oecurred on the weekend$,
