Finance Panel Seeks to Pay UA Deficit JUNEAU (AP) In a surprise move Thursday the House Finance Committee agreed to introduce a bill appropriating $4.9 million to cover the University of Alaska's deficit. Finance Chairman Steve Cowper, D-Fairbanks, said the committee decided to introduce the bill "to get the deficit on the table" and decide how much money really is needed and to determine where it should come from. UA officials have pegged the deficit, which has accrued over the past few years, at $4.9 million.

But the Finance panel instructed UA officials to submit detailed backup material on the deficit so the committee can determine if the school's accounting of the deficit is correct. However, some lawmakers on the panel, including at least two members of the Democratic leadership, indicated they may not upport the appropriation. The question of what to do with the deficit has been on the minds of UA officials for several months, but the Hammond administration has made no move to introduce an appropriation bill. Dollar Drops 4 Yen in Week TOKYO (AP) The dollar closed at 219.175 yen today, up from 218.975 Thursday but down more than four yen from a week earlier. The U.S.

Traders said they expect trading to remain steady next week, fluctuating between about 218 yen and 220 yen. Use of Cocaine, Pot Up in '77, Study Says SEATTLE A use of a i a a cocaine and phencyclidine (a substance which causes hallucinations) rose nationally during 1977 while use of other drugs remained stable, according to a report released at the National Drug Abuse Conference. The study, made public Thursday, said experimentation with "hard" drugs has increased by 3 percent to 62 percent among high school students between 1976 and 1977 but 42 percent of the use was described as one-time or few- times use.

San Francisco, Los Angeles and Phoenix are the top three cities in terms of heroin addict populations, the report said. Next come Detroit, San Diego, Chicago, San Antonio, New York, Seattle, Minneapolis, Miami, Denver, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., and New Orleans, said Dr. Robert L. DuPont, director of the National Institute of Drug Abuse, which prepared the report. Seattle's ninth place standing was due to its seaport status and its closeness to Vancouver, the heroin-use capital of Canada.

Marijuana use occurs more in urban areas and it is increasing by about 7 percent a year among the 12-to-14-year- old group, the report said. Fewer than half the 12-to-25-year- old group believe marijuana is addictive, the study said. High school seniors expecting to attend college had lower rates of marijuana use and a majority of users over 25-years-old believe it is addictive. Cocaine, the study said, is used most by the 18-to-25 age group. There was a decrease from 43 percent to 36 percent between 1976 and 1977 in the number of high school seniors who thought cocaine use carried great risk.

The use of hallucinogens, in- lalants. heroin and sedatives relatively stable the Dast few years, the report said, md there has been an increase 'rom 9 percent to 13 percent in ranquilizer use among the age group. A special report on heroin jse in Seattle-King County showed prices were $5.40 a milligram, compared with a national average of $1.69 and that he purity of heroin was about 2.5 percent, compared with a national average of 5 percent. Seattle Police Capt. Ciark EI- ster, head of the narcotic unit, said the higher prices probably reflect the city's distance from the major Mexican source.

Statistics on emergency room visits and deaths were down for Seattle in 1977, according to the report, which said there were 92 heroin-related emergency room visits and one death, compared with 264 and 21 respectively during 1976.
