B3 I.OS I IMliS SUNDAY, JULY I 'WO METRO NEWS REMAP: Blacks, Latinos Upset With Proposal By JACK PETERS INTERNATIONAL MASTER CHESS Judge Greg O'Brien, who took 20.7 of tho Kenyon does not throw out the primary's results in that district. Flores and her campaign consultants say that the San Gabriel Valley woman is still the favorite to win the seat being vacated by Schabarum, despite the fact that the proposed boundaries reduce the Latino population in the district from 47 to 36. An analysis of the June primary showed that Flores finished first among Latinos, with 65 of the vote, and non-Latinos, with 31, said campaign consultant Ron Smith. "Our numbers show that she would have won even if there were no Latinos in the district," Smith said. Flores, who lives in Glendora, said her power base in the San Gabriel Valley is maintained in the proposed 1st District, which includes new neighborhoods in the Antelope and Santa Clarita valleys.

O'Brien, who is backed by Schabarum, said the 11 decrease in Latino population could help him. "But I don't think it is going to be a significant push," he said. rector of the Southwest Voter Registration Education Project, said: "These guys are not taking the judge seriously." In court papers filed with the plan, county attorneys noted that courts have deferred to redistricting plans submitted by legislative bodies if the plans correct the voting rights violation even if a judge believes he has a better plan. "If the legislative plan is legal but for minor aspects," the county papers say, "the court should defer to the plan and correct or modify only those portions of the plan that are legally or constitutionally infirm, rather than rejecting the entire plan." County officials said the new map could do more than the plaintiffs had dreamed perhaps leading to the election of two Latinos. They contend that a Latino would have a good chance of unseating Edelman in the 3rd District and that former Schabarum deputy Sarah Flores could win the vacant 1st District seat in a November runoff election.

Flores finished first in the June primary with 34.6 of the vote and is scheduled to face Superior Court said Los Angeles City Council-woman Gloria Molina. Molina declined to say whether she would run in the new district if it is approved. Councilman Richard Alatorre, who oversaw council redistricting after the city settled a similar voting rights suit in 1986, said: "They could have done a better job in drawing a more compact district. What does Mt. Olympus in the Hollywood Hills have in common' with East L.A.?" The day after the plan was approved, Alatorre was one of the first to rush to the Hall of Administration to survey the new map.

Alatorre is interested in becoming the first Latino supervisor. But he said he would have to do a lot more thinking before deciding whether to challenge Edelman in the new 3rd District. Alan Clayton, civil rights representative for the League of United Latin American Citizens, said: "I don't think the judge is going to buy it." "They put potential Latino candidates in with a well-financed incumbent," he said. Clayton favors a plan submitted by MALDEF during settlement talks last year that carved a new Latino district from the 1st District, where Supervisor Pete Schabarum is retiring. The board's conservative major-, ity feared that such a move would have cost them control of the board by leading to the election of a liberal.

They contend that those opposing the county plan want to tip the balance of power on the board, which is now 3 to 2 in favor of the conservatives. Clayton contended that the plan still fragments heavily Latino neighborhoods. Kenyon ruled that the 1981 redistricting spread Latino neighborhoods among three districts, thereby diluting Latino voting strength in violation of the federal Voting Rights Act.

Lindsay Stays Hospitalized for Observation Suffering from exhaustion, Los Angeles City Councilman Gilbert Lindsay was being kept under medical observation Saturday and was expected to remain hospitalized "for another day or two," a spokesman at White Memorial Medical Center said.

Hospital spokesman Mark New-meyer said Lindsay was in good condition, "stable and alert," after fainting Friday morning from the effects of "stress and the excitement" from the visit to Los Angeles by South African leader Nelson Mandela. Continued from Bl to El Monte and Rosemead and southeast to Montebello and Pico Rivera. It contains two thin fingers, one extending to Edelman's home in Westwood and another running out to heavily Latino neighborhoods at the north end of the San Fernando Valley. The new 3rd District would be 74 Latino, up from 47 in the existing 3rd District. Latinos account for 45 of the registered voters of the new district.

Under the plan, Supervisor Kenneth Hahn, who has long represented low-income South-Central Los Angeles, picks up affluent Beverly Hills and Hollywood from Edelman. County attorneys said the plan leaves the black population unchangedat 36 of the total populationin Hahn's 2nd District. But by placing blacks in a district with fewer Latinos and more Anglos, the board effectively has cut the voting power of blacks, Shaw argued. Anglos traditionally register and vote in higher numbers than other ethnic groups. 'he plan has the effect of A diluting black voting influence in District 2," Shaw said.

The plan also makes it more difficult for blacks to elect a candidate of their choice, he said. Any supervisor would have trouble representing the proposed district that encompasses some of the richest and poorest areas of the county, Shaw said. "Black and Hispanic community issues converge more often," he said. "The issues are similar. You have a lot of low-income residents.

But Beverly Hills is very different from South-Central L.A." Latino leaders and political activists also attacked the plan.
