The overall drop was first during any single month since the 0.2 percent decline in August 1976, the department said.

A 1.5 percent retreat in food prices was the largest since a 1.8 percent drop also recorded in August 1976. Meanwhile, a top administration official said that within the next few weeks some new elements will be introduced into Carter's five-month-old anti-inflation program. Robert Strauss, selected by Carter in April to lead the administration's drive against inflation, told reporters the administration has "said all along that we'll be moving new things into the program as time goes on." "We plan to add some things in early fall and also after the first of the year," he said. Later, Strauss said the first of the new initiatives should be announced "in a few weeks." Strauss would not specify what would be included. But administration sources said one option under serious consideration was voluntary wage-price guidelines for business and labor that would be more "specific" than in the past.

The wage standard would be directly tied to consumer price increases, the sources explained. For instance, if the administration hits its goal of 8 percent inflation for the year, wage gains See PRICES, Page 6A ill lit liiil.n'i,lli--r-ii.i.i.,fhTi.-,..A:.

Tehran's military governor said 58 persons were killed and 205 injured in the bloody clash in the shadow of the Iranian Parliament.

Unofficial reports said as many as 100 died when troops fired submachine guns into the air to disperse the throng, then dropped their gunsights into the oncoming crowd. There was no comment on unofficial reports that as many as 1,000 persons were arrested in the first day of martial law. By the 9 p.m. curfew time Friday, the streets of Tehran were empty save for an occasional military patrol. Gatherings of any kind during the curfew are forbidden.

The clash came as Shah Mohammed Reza Pahlavi attempted to cap a growing revolt against his authoritarian government, after failing to pacify the rebels by shuffling his government and sanctioning free expression.

No one was close to the boat when it happened and no one knows how it happened. But Kozel knew it was bound to happen. "As soon as I heard he was dead," Kozel said.

GOF Candidates Trade Charges During TV Talk By BRUCE DUDLEY and BOB ROTHMAN Tribune Staff Writers The Republican gubernatorial race between Jack Eckerd and Lou Frey boiled over in a sharp face-to-face television encounter Friday night, the first time the pair had met in debate since the contest opened.

The scandal within the General Service Administration and the role of Eckerd as that agency's administrator for 15 months in 1975-76 was the focal point of the debate viewers of public television watched. It was the same topic that earlier in the day had prompted. ranking Republican congressional leader Rep. Paul McCloskey of California to ask Eckerd to meet with a House subcommittee probing the GSA. Frey, a Winter Park congressman, has taunted Eckerd with the GSA scandal for some time, but came out in earnest this week on the subject after the Washington Post published reports showing Eckerd had received a consultant's report on troubles within the agency while he was its administrator.

The Post quoted the consultant as saying Eckerd had taken no action on the report of losses from thievery by the Nil s- I 1 1 1 By KIM I. EISLER Tribune Staff Writer Cody Fowler, one of the nation's most illustrious lawyers and a Tampa resident since 1924, is dead at 85. He had been a president of the American Bar Association and twice headed the American College of Trial Lawyers. Fowler's civic accomplishments ranged from the professional to the commercial and industrial. But he will be most remembered as a humanitarian.

The native of Arlington, became Tampa's Man of the Year in 1952, but that was just one of many, many honors his adopted city and its residents bestowed on him. Fowler would have been 86 in December. But despite back troubles that in the last few year forced him to rely on walkers and wheelchairs, he never retired as the senior partner of the Tampa law firm of Fowler, White, Gillen, Boggs, Viilareal and Banker. He continued to come to work regularly up until the end; to give counsel to clients and firm members, and to work on matters of interest to him. Thursday night with no warning, Fowler was stricken with See FOWLER, Page 6A Kevin Minear is the winner of West Virginia's tobacco spitting contest.

No chorus was heard, however, when John Foley's boat sank alongside Chicago's Navy Pier. "He didn't have any children," said George Kozel, a friend and long-time fishing partner. "That boat was his baby." Foley was 76 years old when he died in his sleep Monday night and his old wooden boat, the Lincoln, was at least 50 when it sank a day later.

The old man and his boat had been around so long, his friends said, that it was fitting that when one went, so did the other. "It's kind of scary, almost like a dog or something," said Sam Romano, a charter boat captain who works nearby Burnham Harbor. "People used to take the Lincoln over to Government Pier to fish all the time. It used to be one of the famous runs around here until that seiche it's like a small tidal wave came in a few years back and several people drowned," Romano said. "I guess the business just ran down after that.

I heard he just started taking people out there again." Foley made his living as a fisherman and when commercial fishing in the city wasn't bountiful enough to support him and the Lincoln, he began guiding amateur fishermen around the lake. The old houseboat-like craft once belonged to the Army Corps of Engineers, but after Foley purchased it, the Lincoln took on a livelier personality. He kept it painted bright yellow and red with a black hull. Spiders often accompanied Foley on his excursions, but that was all right with him. He considered them good luck.

"He got up at 4:30 almost every morning," said his niece, Patricia Igini, a widow with whom he lived. Foley and Kozel and the Lincoln were fixtures around Navy Pier and the boat could be seen putting out most mornings by 5:30. Although the Lincoln measured up to its colors this summer, Foley wasn't feeling as well. His emphysema was getting worse.

"If we uphold this thing, couldn't every legislator pass a similar bill and we'd have a govern ment-in-the-sun-shine with 67 exceptions?" Adkins asked (referring to the 67 counties in the state). Cary Singletary, attorney for Hillsborough Classroom Teachers Association, said that until the sunshine law is written into the constitution, it is subject' to change at the whim of the legislature.

An amendment to accomplish this will be on the November ballot. Hillsborough Circuit Court held the act valid, citing Florida cases which recognize that while the legislature cannot abdicate its role in favor of individuals, applied to incompetent physicians, has "preserved a few rotten apples in the barrel" and resulted in a flood of medical malpractice suits. "The legislature," said Tribune attorney Ted R. Manry, "does not have the power to pass such decisions to an individual. The legislature must decide if the hearings are open or closed." W.

Crosby Few, speaking for the school board, said the 1969 act was passed two years after the sunshine law and amounts to an exception to it, which the legislature has the right to make. Justice Ben Overton noted there are "more than 100 exceptions." may be terribly unwise legislation, but the legislature made the decision and, whether wise or unwise, -that is its job," said Justice Alan discretion as to how they should be applied. The high court did not indicate when it will rule. The Hillsborough County school board and the CTA said the teacher's option to close hearings does not usurp the legislature's role, but simply gives the teacher alternatives similar to the right of a criminal defendant to choose between alternative pleas. Singletary said there was a reasonable basis for excluding reporters because a teacher, publicly but falsely accused, would have difficulty returning to a classroom full of young children, even if cleared.

The law recognizes that a teacher stands in the place of a parent and must maintain a certain image, he said. Adkins said this kind of argument. After Tribune reporter Brad Bole was twice barred from a teacher misconduct hearing before the school board, the newspaper went to court.
