WARD CONNERLY UC regent and proponent of an Initiative to roll back affirmative action laws In California Mary F. Bryant; Civic Activist Mary F. Bryant, 53, a civic activist and owner of a popular Larchmbnt gathering spot Born in Springfield, she graduated from- the University of Wyoming. A resident of Los Angeles for more than 15 years, Bryant worked for Dino de Laurentiis' film production company and the Los Angeles Philharmonic before becoming a partner in the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf shop on Larchmont Boulevard in 1990.

She was a director of the Larchmont Boulevard Assn. and past treasurer of the Windsor Square-Hancock Park Historical Society. She also was an executive co-producer of the play "Waiting for the Parade" that had a successful run last year at the Commonwealth and Tiffany theaters. On Sunday in Los Angeles of breast cancer. Sidney Gordln; Abstract Artist, Sculptor Sidney Gordin, 77, an abstract artist and sculptor who taught at UC Berkeley.

Gordin utilized geometric shapes and created wooden wall boxes that are used like building blocks. His work is in the permanent collections of New York's Whitney Museum, the Art Institute of Chicago, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and the Oakland Museum. In Los Angeles, Gordin exhibited at Newspace and Dilexi Gallery, and some of his pieces were bought for an ongoing display by Bank of America. The Russian-born Gordin studied at Cooper Union School of Art in New; Vprk, and taught art at Pratt Institute, Brooklyn College, the New School for Social Research and Sarah Lawrence College before joining the Berkeley faculty in 1958. Gordin retired from teaching in 1986, and in 1992 was a recipient of the Maggie Kuhn Award honoring role models over age 60.

On Jan. 28 in Berkeley. Philip J. Regan, a popular singer of the 1940s who broke into show business as the "singing cop," has died. He was 89.

Regan died Sunday in his sleep in Santa Barbara, where he had lived for several years. A native of Brooklyn, Regan was working for the New York Police Department when fellow officers urged the Irish tenor to enter a talent show. He won an appearance on the George Burns and Gracie Allen radio show, launching a brief 1 but successful career. In the 1950s, Regan moved into public relations, frequently lobbying and meeting with politicians in Washington on behalf of such cli Continued from Al ras forced to halt signature -gathering for a critical three weeks because it ran out of money to pay the workers. At the time, the so-called California civil rights initiative was far behind schedule for reaching the signature goal by Feb.

21. To the rescue came Connerly and Gov. Pete Wilson, the same pair who teamed up in July to orchestrate a historic vote by the UC regents to abolish race and gender as considerations in hiring and admissions. 1 Since then, fueled by fear of a major embarrassment if the effort failed and by the possibility of a political boost if it passed, Wilson and Connerly organized a blitz of campaign resources. Although Connerly still insists that opposition to affirmative action crosses party lines, Republican Party officials have turned it into a top priority.

Both the state and national GOP committees were signed up for more than $500,000 in assistance, said California Republican Party Chairman John Herring-ton. The Legislature's Republican caucus also was pressured for help last month and about a quarter of the GOP lawmakers tapped their own campaign funds for about $4,000 each. Large donations were received from top Republican contributors such as former U.S. Senate candidate Mike Huffington and conservative banking magnate Howard Ahmanson. Now, after reporting a debt of about $145,000 on Dec.

31 despite having raised more than $880,000, officials expect to have cash left over after the qualifying process to launch their campaign for the ballot measure. Republican voters also have been asked to help. Organizers used the money that they raised to target the GOP rank and file with more than 1 million pieces of mail in the last two months, many of which included pleas from the ing and school admissions. The issue has been highly controversial, however, with critics of the anti-affirmative action drive spanning all but the most conservative ranks of the political spectrum. Many Republicans have warned that the issue is destructive for the party because it presents an image of insensitivity and exclusion to minorities.

Others, including Democrats such as President Clinton, minority group leaders and women's groups, argue that society has not resolved the inequities that prompted affirmative action policies about 30 years ago. Surveys have found that while a majority of Californians approve the broad concept of affirmative action, they draw the line at racial and gender preferences as a way to provide equal playing fields. Republican supporters of the proposed ballot measure are hoping that they can frame the issue in a way that will cause political headaches for Democrats trying to campaign in California particularly Clinton. The president's response to the issue has been "mend it, don't end it." "Democrats are going to be talking about issues that voters care about they are about invest-ment in education, about improving the economy and protecting the environment," said Julie Buckner, a state Democratic Party spokeswoman. At the GOP convention, however, Republicans were counting on their huge investment paying off in November.

"A lot of blue-collar Democrats will be for this and the liberal left will be against it," William Rusher, editor of the National Review, said during a panel discussion at the convention. Herrington dubbed it "the Democrats' abortion issue. They shoved that down our throats all the time, and it divided our party and they laughed."

"The initial feeling was that this should not be a political issue but it is a political issue," Herrington said. "It is a defining issue in California, and Republicans are on the right side of the issue." Republicans insist that the measure foundered because of the political inexperience of its previous directors, not from a lack of public support.

They also acknowledge that some major donors, particularly businesses, were reluctant to become involved in the controversial issue. The proposed initiative, written by two Bay Area academics, says the state "shall not discriminate against or grant preferential treatment to any individual or group on the basis of race, sex, color, ethnic-' ity or national origin in the operation of public employment, public education or public contracting." Supporters, such as Wilson, contend that the measure will eliminate race-conscious policies in slate government that amount to "reverse discrimination" against white job applicants. Wilson once promoted affirmative action while mayor of San Diego. But the governor says that he was wrong then because the policy has turned into an ethnic quota system for hiring, contract ents as Anheuser-Busch and the United Steelworkers Union. In 1973, he was convicted of trying to buy a Santa Barbara County supervisor's favorable vote on a condominium rezoning project in Goleta.

Hundreds of influential people, including former Gov. Ed-mund G. (Pat) Brown wrote i letters on Regan's behalf, urging probation or mitigation of any sentence. Regan served a year in prison for bribery and was later i pardoned by Gov. Edmund G.
