Lout' i in chcA uuivv, January, 1972. MARIAN Kr ItOP.KHT I MOONEY "Dr. Otis H. Howcn of Bremen ji fciwiiiiy luim me imui m-ficc Indiana's 44th governor, asking for the "guidance of God's help and the loyal assistance of each and every cit iZe'n of the state." More than 3,000 persons jammed the second floor of the Stalehouse to witness the inaugural ceremony which included the swearing in of Rohprt P. (Mr as lieutenant-governor and Theodore L.

Sen-dak as Attorney General for a second four-year term. REPUBLICAN partisans sat on the marble stairwells of the historic building and crowded the third and fourth-floor railings, craning their necks downward as the ceremony progressed. The crowd was reportedly one of the largest to witness a Statehotise inaugural. Superintendent of Indiana State Police Robert K. Konkle estimated the crowd from "5.000 to 7,500." And more than 4,000 also was expected for the inaugural ball that started at 9 p.m.

in the Indiana Convention and Exposition Center. BOWEN, 54-year-old Bremen physician, received a rousing ovation when introduced to take the oath of office from Joseph Kotso, long-time friend and chairman of the 1972 campaign's First District Bowen Volunteers organization. The new governor said he wanted an administration not callously built "upon the opportunistic politics of the quota but one which is deeply rooted in full, open and public participation." Hp specifically called for internal fiscal, legal and personnel controls to guard against "the potential erosion of public waste." He said his administration has the "responsibility to lead, to an outspoken advocate of the public, a positive force for the sound administration of oublic affairs." BOWEN'S WIFE, Beth, dressed in a chartreuse suit, stood beside him as he took the oath of office. He later Introducd her as "one whose help has been very instrumental in any achievement that I have ever And, after Introducing the rest of his family of sons, daughters, grandchildren and other relatives, Bowen quipped: "There's lots of votes there." Orr was given the oath by his brother, Samuel Orr of Evansville, and Sendak was sworn into office by former Lieutenant Governor Richard O. Ristine.

Orr, 55, of Evansville, said the people want their government returned and opened to them, warning: "THEY ARE restive at being taken for granted. They are tired of government and its officials disregarding their problems or their ideas for improvement. They will no longer meekly accept impersonal treatment." Orr encouraged the participation of volunteers in the affairs of government. Equally, he said, there must be an eagerness of government "and its bureaucracies" to involve the volunteer availability of its citizens in the business of government. Orr credited the economy program of outgoing Governor Eflger D.

Whitcomb as "significant testimony to the value oCfSlisting private citizens in thrjnost pragmatic activity of alCiaving tax dollars." 3Sndak, 54, of Crown Point, sail 'the authors of the United States and Indiana constitution clearly recognized a Supreme Being, and affirmed the session of the Indiana House and Senate in the House cham ber. He said his administration had brought general fund spending into bounds for Hie first time in many years. He said it had decreased from 58 per cent in the previous administration of Democrat Roger D. Rranigin to 30 per cent in his own administration. If this policy could continue, Whitcomb said, a general lax increase would never be necessary because of the natural growth in the present revenue system.

Whitcomb said he wished the legislature could have followed his proposals to provide property tax relief to home owners over 65 years old; state support for 50 per rent of local schools; and increases in alcohol and tobacco taxes which would have provided more than million for police and firemen pensions and for mental health. HE FORECAST a slate cen-en! fund surplus of $55 million on June 30 "which, when ad'ted with the expected $45.2 million in Federal revenue-sharing funds, will total more than $100 million." "As I leave office." Whitcomb said. "I leave the state in a sound fiscal condition, possibly more sound than any other state in the nation." During his speech, Whitcomb alluded to many exciting things "which have added greatly to Hoosier life" in nongovernmen tal fields during his administration, which he rightfully said the administration couldn't take credit for. They included such events as e-educated Neil Arm strong becoming the first man on the moon to Notre Dame breaking a long string of football victories by the University of Texas by winning the Cotton Bowl. FOUR OTHER former gov the Republicans' majority committee report to seat Wilson and to reject the Democrats' minority report proposing another recount.

The Senate had recessed to allow Klaes to speak. He attacked bitterly the recount commission in Orange County that awarded the District 44 seat to Wilson. lue Democratic member of the commission was a "78-yeai-oid retired farmer that my attorney had to nudge Half the time to keep him awake," Klaes declared. Klaes contended the recount occurred because "they didn't steal enough (votes), and they had to go back a second time." Klaes told an old story about a man saying only two things made him sick to his stomach. One was making sausage and the other was legislators making laws.

"I tell you, that man never saw a recount in Orange County," Klaes added. Klaes mentioned Senator Robert L. Sheaffer (R-Shelby-vi'Ie), a member of the committee which decided the seating issue, by saying: "As a devil's advocate, Senator Sheaffer is about as effective as a water boy on a swimming team." K'aes referred to abrasive remarks Sheaffer had made durinT a committee meeting K'aos Md tbo Senate (hat in wount.

Bainbridge (D-Highland), Min ority leader in the Indiana House of Representatives, yesterday named three aides for this session of the legislature. Harry Latham was named minority attorney and David W. Mernitz was appointed as sistant attorney. Both are from Indianapolis. Latham has been Demo cratic party legal advisor in the House since 1951 and Mernitz was an unsuccessful candidate for attorney general last fall.

Also named to Bainbridge's staff was George Van Til of Highland who will serve as administrative assistant to the minority caucus.

All appeared in good spirits, notably Welsh, who won the Democratic nomination governor in 1972 only to see his comeback attempt smashed by a loss to Bowen by more than 300,000 votes. Asked if he still felt a keen disappointment over his loss, Welsh replied: "Well, the working hours now are much better." All five of the living former governors are attorneys.

Whitcomb has said he plans to re-sume practice in Seymour, but also with an office in Indianapolis. His farewell from the governor's private inner office occurred at 12:07 p.m. when he left with his wife, his per sonal secretary, Evelyn Mau ser, and a friend from Terre Haute, Hugh McQuillen. WHITCOMB languished a bit then, appearing not too ready to leave, but following the ceremony when he returned for his hat and coat, and the photo graphs, he immediately departed. The outgoing Governor, a few days ago, turned the keys to the state's rented apartment in the Riley Towers (the Governor's suite) over to Bowen, who will stay there indefinitely until repairs on the Governor's mansion at 4343 North Meridian Street are completed.

Earlier yesterday, United States Senator Mark O. Hatfield R-Ore. was the principal speaker at Leadership Prayer Breakfast in the Columbia Club an event which opened Inauguration Day acti vities. posed a full recount headed by a Senate committee under E'ection Committee Chairman Charles E. Bosma (R-Beech Grove).

Senator Don L. Park (D-Muncie) said the minority report was not charging fraud. Senator Frank L. O'Bannon (D-Corydon) said while there is more than one way of skinning a cat, "it's always bad for the cat." O'Bannon said he was not sure who the cat was in this case but added, "I sort of think it's the Indiana State Senate." Bosma said the committee had investigated the matter thoroughly and found "the recount has been handled in accordance with the statutes of the state" with both parties given procedural safeguards. Charges of Irregularities, Bosma added, meant "unfairly the integrity of every senator in this body has been Indirectly impugned." The House is scheduled to consider today disputes over the scats of Representative Maurice II.

McDaniel (R-New Albany), who defeated Former Representative Audie W. Rain-bolt (D-Ncw Albany), and Dan E. Huff (R-Indianapolis). Both parties will caucus in the morning, and the seven-member House committee arbitrating the disputes will meet at I p.m. Rainbolt, former state commander of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, sought and obtained a vote recount which did not change the totals making McDaniel the winner.

Huff defeated Michael T. Du-gan III, and a lawsuit was filed questioning Huff's legal residency. Marion Circuit Judge John L. Niblack later ruled that Huff met legal residence requirements. Both I) a i 1 and Huff were sworn in last November over objections by Democrats.

Ristine and Indiana University Chancellor Herman Wells handed the study group. The committee recommended, as revealed earlier, that a 12 member state board of education be appointed by the governor and that the board appoint the state The proposed legislation would have one member the board appointed from each of One seating battle was re-sjlved but Uo others loomed as the Republican-dominated 93th Indiana General Assembly reconvened yesterday amid pledges of harmony, promises of hard work and prospects for bitter infighting. The House of Representatives received a flurry of new bilis and sat in joint session with the Senate to hear Governor Edgar D. Whit-comb's farewell speech and to certify the election of the new governor, Otis R. Bowen, who was inaugurated later in the day.

The Senate's opening was marked by bitter speeches as the upper chamber voted 29-20 along party lines to scat Republican Earl Wilson of Bedford over his Democratic challenger, Marvin F. Klaes of Seymour. FOR THE day, the House met a total of Vk hours after convening at 9:31 a.m. and the Senate for about 45 minutes after convening at 9:47 a.m., with most of that time taken by the Wilson-Klaes fight. Klaes was sworn in during the legislature's organizational meeting last November, an 11-vote winner over former congressman Wilson, but a recount later gave Wilson a 41-vote victory.

There was no applause in the Senate after Wilson was administered the oath of office by Chief Justice Norman Arter-burn of the Indiana Supreme Court.
