4 THE COURIER-JOURNAL, SATURDAY, JUNE 23, 1984 Murder charge Indiana teacher's aide fights prayer ban Legislators held immune from 'greed-bill' lawsuit Frank said school officials are confident that their decision reflects U.S. Supreme Court rulings banning school-sponsored prayer, even though those cases have generally involved prayer by students rather than teachers. "I'm not so certain that there would be much of a differential between children and adults," he said. "We're all dealing with the same Constitution and the same rights. None of them is absolute, and some of them do come into conflict." Ms.

May is seeking $300,000 in compensatory and punitive damages for school officials' alleged violation of her rights to freedom of speech, assembly and religion. Frank, held a news conference Thursday to explain school officials' action. "We've taken the position that it would be improper for the school to allow any religious group to meet on school property," he said, "because once we have one, in fairness to them all, we have to allow them all. "And then we get in the business of organizing meetings for religious groups before or after school which room do you get, and they got the room before we did. It has the potential for really creating some problems." School officials do not prohibit students or teachers from Individual prayer, he said.

Associated Press EVANSVILLE, Ind. An Evans-ville teacher's aide has filed a lawsuit claiming school officials violated her civil rights when they broke up a teachers' daily prayer meeting in an elementary school. Mary May asked U.S. District Court in Evansville to prevent officials from Interfering with the worship sessions held before class by eight staff members at Harper Elementary School. Her suit says the school's principal, at the direction of the Evans-ville-Vanderburgh County school board, told the teachers In September to stop the meetings or risk being fired.

The board's lawyer, Jeffrey Shutdown of The Ceurlerslournal Bureau FRANKFORT, Ky. The state Court of Appeals has upheld a ruling that state legislators are Immune from a lawsuit arising out of passage of the so-called "greed bill" in 1982. The decision, like a lower-court by former Franklin Circuit Judge Squire Williams, was based on a clause in the state constitution that says General Assembly mem-J7 bers "for any speech or debate in tL either house shall not be ques-'," tioned In any other place." A three-member appellate court jt.4 panel said in a unanimous opinion: "When legislators are sued in their official capacity on the basis of legislation which they acted upon, they are being 'questioned in an-. other place' for their legislative vVi' "The Immunity not only applies to speech and debate, but to voting, re-' porting and every act in the execution of their legislative duties." The "greed bill," passed over the veto of former Gov. John Y.

Brown more than doubled potential retirement benefits for several veteran legislators. For example, a legislator who took office before July 1. 1978, and serves five years after Jan. 1, 1982, can draw $13,750 a year at age 65, 118 percent more than be would have received annually under the previous law. Legislators with 20 or more years of service can draw $27,500 a year at age 65.

The suit was filed by Don Wiggins of Winchester, an unsuccesful candidate for the Republican nomination for governor last year, and Thomas H. Cottingham of Alexandria, an unsuccessful Democratic candidate for state senator. All 138 members of the 1982 legislature were named as defendants. The suit sought to declare the bill unconstitutional and to prevent some legislators from seeking reelection. However, the only issue on appeal was that of the legislators' Immunity from a lawsuit brought against them In their official capacity, the appellate court panel said.

The panel was composed of Judges Kenton Cooper, Harris Howard and J. William Howerton. may raise town's school tax APPEALS COURT MINUTES tiled in aeaui of UK student Associated Frees LEXINGTON, Ky. A Lexington man was charged with murder after a 27-year-old University of Kentucky student died Thursday of injuries suffered in a beating last weekend. The man, Samuel L.

Winburn, 29, had been charged with first-degree assault in the beating Saturday of the student, Bradley Smith. Winburn pleaded innocent to the murder charge in District Court Thursday. Smith, who suffered a fractured skull, had been in a coma and on a respirator at the University of Kentucky Albert B. Chandler Medical Center, Deputy Fayette County Coroner Louis Hager said. The victim, manager of an ment building where he and Winburn lived, was found lying on a sidewalk Saturday night, police officer Barry Cecil said.

Police said Winburn allegedly beat Smith in his own apartment and dragged him out to the sidewalk. Cecil said witnesses saw a man beat Smith on the sidewalk with what witnesses described as an ax handle or a chunk of wood. The defendant also is charged with second-degree assault for allegedly hitting a guard with a mop at the Fayette County Detention Center, according to Ray Sabbatine, assistant director of the jail. The guard was treated at Good Samaritan Hospital. Derailed train hits warehouse in Owensboro Associated Press OWENSBORO, Ky.

A freight train derailed and crashed into an Owensboro warehouse, causing more than $100,000 in damage to the building and its contents, officials said. There were no injuries in the derailment, which occurred at about 2 a.m. Thursday on a Seaboard System Railroad line. The cause of the accident is not known, said L.C. Love, district superintendent with Seaboard.

The 120-car train was traveling from Louisville to Evansville, when the accident occurred, said Charles Castner, a spokesman for Seaboard. Seven empty cars derailed, Castner said. No hazardous materials were on the train, he said. The derailment damaged the warehouse's loading dock and tore out walls. Several refrigerators, freezers and other appliances stored inside were smashed.

Billy Joe Yeiser, owner of the warehouse, estimated the damage at "well over $100,000." The line reopened at 5:15 p.m. Thursday. Tin Courier-Journal Bureau FRANKFORT, Ky. The minutes of the Kentucky Court of Appeals yesterday: AFFIRMING YJ JBFFMSON COUfTTY HurtadO vs. wealth; Judge Kenton J.

Residents of the Hanover area are grappling with the possibility that their school tax rate could grow nearly seven times higher next year because of the shutdown of the Marble Hill nuclear power plant project. It's a scary prospect for property owners, many of whom are struggling farmers who haven't recovered from last summer's drought.

But Monday night the Southwestern School Board tried to lay all the cards on the table by issuing a lengthy public statement that explains how Marble Hill is casting a dark cloud over the school system's finances. The statement said that under the worst circumstances possible, the assessed value of the Marble Hill site would drop from $123 million last year to $13 million this year. "This sudden and significant loss in assessed valuation could result in the school taxes at Southwestern increasing from $2.66 to as high as $18," the statement said. The rate would be charged per $100 assessed valuation in the four rural townships that make up the school system Hanover, Republican, Smyrna and Saluda, the site of Marble Hill. If Marble Hill's value dropped more than $100 million, the $18 rate would be needed to generate enough money for a $3 million budget to run the schools next year.

Indiana's school tax system works generally like this: The amount of money that must be raised through local taxes is dictated by a state formula. For school corporations with high assessed valuations like Southwestern and thus low tax rates, the amount raised locally must be much greater. For the 1984 school year, Southwestern had to raise 68 percent of its school revenue locally. For 1985, the system is expected to raise 78 percent under the state formula. But as Southwestern school officials noted, the state formula doesn't take into account "sudden and significant loss in assessed valuation.

Thus, even though the assessed valuation, that factor that created small taxes, may drop by 70 percent, the amount of money required to be raised locally does not tery In Norton, Va.

An autopsy was to be performed on a young bald eagle after it died unexpectedly at the Memphis Zoo. The eaglet was rescued from its nest near Dover, on June 1 after wildlife agents discovered it tangled In a web of twine the adult eagles had used to build the nest.

The bird died Wednesday while it was being fed. A second eaglet in the nest died, but a third young bird was, unharmed. State wildlife agents, along with U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service officials, had been watching the nest closely because it is believed to be the first active eagle nest in the state since the early 1960s. John Stokes, the zoo's assistant curator of birds, said the autopsy may reveal an injury that he and the zoo veterinarian missed during their examination.

Ex-Mount Sterling police chief faces prostitution Charge Associated Frets MOUNT STERLING, Ky.

Pearson's was in charge of Marble Hill drop at all," the board said in its statement Southwestern Superintendent Patrick Leahey said that In March he began to investigate the flnanicial effect of the Marble Hill shutdown. In April he attended a hearing at the Jefferson County courthouse in Madison at which Public Service Indiana representatives asked that the state tax commissioners see that their site was reassessed in light of the decision in January to stop building the plant Maxine Crafton, the Saluda Township assessor, and Jefferson County Assessor Don Luckett hope to complete a reassessment of Marble Hill soon. Mrs. Crafton said they are getting help from state tax officials who are aware of the situation facing the schools. William Long, chairman of the State Board of Tax Commissioners, has met with Southwestern school board members about the problem.

"We're not going to slam the door on them," he said. He advised the school board members to advertise their budget this summer as required and see how the assessed valuation turns out. The one thing they should not advertise he said is a specific tax rate "cause I don't believe anyone lnntuc what it urf II ho Long, who was a state legislator ir 10 vears. said the school svstem for 10 years, said the school system will probably have to be bailed out by the General Assembly when it convenes in January. "And that's what the legislature is for," he said.

Long knows there are critics who think the Southwestern School Board shouldn't have embarked on a $7.5 million construction program three years ago. But he said he can see why they felt free to build, with Marble Hill going up and more students coming in. (This fall there will be about 1,570 students in the schools, about 170 fewer than had been expected before Marble Hill shut down.) In the boom climate that existed three years ago, the school system did extensive remodeling and built additions to its elementary school and the junior-senior high complex. To those who attribute the potential $18 tax rate to the building project, Leahey replies that only 20 percent of the rate goes for the building costs. after 6 p.m.

Losey's last completed film was "La Truite," filmed In France in 1982. In 1978, he filmed the opera "Don Giovanni" In Italy. His greatest success was "The Go-Between," which won the Golden Palm for best film at the Cannes Film Festival In 1971.

Although he never returned to the United States to live, the breach between Losey and his native country was partly healed in the early 1970s when a number of academic honors were conferred on him by Dartmouth College. He returned to Hollywood in 1980 for the first time in 29 years, when the Los Angeles Film Festival was exhibiting "Don Giovanni." Survivors include Losey's wife, Patricia, and two sons. The woman has not been identified, and Nichols said dental records will be searched in an effort to establish her identity. She probably died before being dumped in the reservoir, he said. Fishermen discovered the body Wednesday night off Narrows Boat-ramp Road, about 12 miles southwest of Glasgow.

It was estimated that the woman had been in the water for two or three months. 19, drowns Mr. and Mrs. James E. Jackson of Taylorsville; two brothers, Timothy and Robert Jackson, both of Taylorsville; two sisters, Brenda Jackson of Taylorsville and Mrs.

AW A Associated Press 7, LONDON American film direc- tor Joseph Losey, who was blacklist- jed in Hollywood in the 1950s and rjr moved to Europe to make such "movies as "The Go-Between," and "The Servant," died yesterday. He was 75. Losey was involved in post-production work on his latest film, "Steaming," when he died at his home in London, his publicity agent, Theo Cowan, said. The cause of death was not released, but Cowan said Losey had been exhausted recently. Born in La Crosse, on Jan.

1909, Losey graduated from College and attended the 4 11 Harvard graduate school of arts and 'sciences. After serving In the Army in 'World War II, he started what appeared to be a promising Hollywood Career with his 1948 film "The Boy with Green Hair." But during the McCarthy-era anti- communist crusade that swept the U.S. entertainment industry in the early 1950s, Losey was blacklisted because he had studied theater in the Soviet Union while in his 20s. He said the blacklist cost him the chance to direct "High Noon," the classic Gary Cooper-Grace Kelly western.
