PRESS Wednesday, February 27, 1980 Continued from page 1 "Election Shooting, Highway 12 Bond suit in a barrage of similar Bo Derek film change HOLLYWOOD (UPI) Bo Derek, who gave the term "10" new meaning in the movie of the same title, has withdrawn from the cast of "High Road To China" and will star instead in "Tarzan The Ape Man Me Jane." The 23-year-old sex symbol pulled out of the Golden Harvest production to sign with MGM for the remake of the 1932 Edgar Rice Burroughs classic which starred Johnny Weiss-muller and Maureen O'Sullivan. Bo's husband, former actor and current photographer John Derek, will direct his wife in the Tarzan epic. Horse shows VIENNA, Austria (UPI) Vienna's Spanish Riding School has scheduled 53 performances for its world-famed white Lipizzan stallions in the sparkling Baroque riding hall in the Imperial Palace complex this year.

"Who knows what inflation is going to do 15 or 20 years down the road?" he asked. Memorial administrator Art Crandall said this morning the agreement prohibits the hospital from cutting the amount of services it provides and the funding mechanism would translate directly into a $10 to $12 per day savings to patients using the new facilities. Crandall said the savings would "most assuredly" be passed on to patients. "It's going to help slow down the rate of increase and that's really what our primary motivation is," he said. Monday's decision was made after little discussion.

The situation was in contrast to lengthy discussions held by the council on a proposal to use the same funding scheme to provide money for low-interest mortgage loans. No decision on that proposal has been reached. Monday, Guggiana and Bar-one noted legislation in Congress had confused the question of the funding scheme for requests. "It's an extension of government into a place it doesn't belong," he said. Councilman Ting Guggiana disagreed that the action was precedent setting and said his only concerns were that the plan would leave the city with legal liability and would reduce the city's bonding capacity.

He said the city's bond counsel had given assurances neither of those conditions would arise. Mayor Jack Healy and Councilman William Barone agreed, and cast votes in favor of the proposal. Council members conceded after their decision that there is no language in the agreement assuring any of the savings will be passed on to patients. Healy said he relied on Memorial's status as a non-profit organization and Barone admitted he is assuming the hospital will pass the savings along. "I guess maybe its a presumption that if they don't have to make those payments, the rates won't rise," Barone said.

Guggiana said he would not ask the hospital for language Jones' lieutenants, the Mills defected and were among the first of former Temple members to speak out against Jones. The Mills founded the Berkeley Human Freedom Center in 1978 as a refuge for other defectors and in their home, where they were killed, operated a short wave radio monitoring radio communications between the Temple headquarters In San Francisco and Jonestown. They were among several former members who were quoted in a 1977 New West magazine article exposing Jones. Following the deaths at Jonestown, the Mills told police they believed they were on Jones' death list and feared for their lives. One of their daughters, Diana, told police she had received threatening letters and telephone calls, and had seen "eight or nine" armed men in the yard of the home on one occasion.

Police today said the Mills recently had not reported any fears or requested protection. Eddie Mills declined protection today after being questioned by authorities, police said. Steve Katsaris, the Ukiah man who traveled with the Ryan party to Guyana and whose daughter died with Jones, today said he has heard of no recent threats against defectors and relatives of Temple members who campaigned against Jones. Katsaris also was reported to be on the hit list. If the deaths are connected to the Temple, he said, he doubted there was any organized effort.

Talmadge CARITHER'S 730 THIRD ST, SANTA ROSA Slort Hours: Thursday this summer's national conventions. By mid-morning today, fewer than half the straw ballots from 4,000 precincts had been counted, and Reagan led Bush 33-30 percent. Carter trounced Kennedy in the Democratic caucuses in Minnesota, home state of Vice President Walter Mondale. Carter's solid New Hampshire win was forecast in pre-primary surveys, but Reagan confounded the pollsters and whacked Bush reviving what still is a limping and debt-plagued campaign and slowing the momentum Bush built in Iowa and Puerto Rico. Gov.

Edmund G. Brown Jr. of California ran third in the Democratic primary; Sen. Howard Baker of Tennessee, Reps. John Anderson and Philip Crane of Illinois, former Gov.

John Connal-ly of Texas and Sen. Bob Dole of Kansas brought up the GOP field. With 100 percent of the New Hampshire vote counted, the Democratic tally showed: Carter 53,586 or 49 percent; Kennedy 41,540 or 38 percent; Brown 10,727 or 10 percent. Final Republican were totals: Reagan 72,734 or 50 percent; Bush 33,304 or 23 percent; Baker 18,760 or 13 percent; Anderson 14,622 or 10 percent; Crane 2,633 or 2 percent; Connally 2,215 or 2 percent; Dole 608 less than 1 percent. Former President Gerald Ford got 380 write-in votes.

Carter got 10 delegates, Kennedy nine. The GOP breakdown was Reagan 13, Bush 5, Baker and Anderson 2 each. The total delegate count to date now is 21 for Carter and 19 for Kennedy; 22 each for Reagan and Bush, six for Baker, two for Anderson and one for Connally. Carter now has caucus victories over Kennedy in Iowa and Maine and the primary in New Hampshire. Primaries in Massachusetts and Vermont Tuesday end the opening phase of the campaign, followed by a series of southern primaries in early March.

Primary day was politically hectic in New Hampshire even before the votes were counted. Brown announced he was skipping the primaries in March to concentrate on the April 1 test in Wisconsin. Dole said he was putting his campaign "on hold." And Reagan shocked everybody by sacking his top campaign staff, including John Sears, the man who almost guided him to victory in 1976. Reagan said the changes were made to save money one aide said the campaign was $600,000 in debt and to emphasize personal contact with voters, which Reagan commenced with zest in New Hampshire after Sears' sit-tight strategy culminated in the Iowa loss. Reagan said today the firings of campaign manager Sears, national political director Charlie Black and press secretary James Lake resulted from "looseness" in the organization and the lack of coordination between his professional campaign staff and local workers.

"For several weeks I've been trying to bring about a meeting of minds on a solution to this and I was having no success at all," Reagan told reporters at his hotel. "Finally I just had to lay down a rule and say, 'This was the way it's going to and this caused the resignations." He denied Sears was ousted to appease critics who felt Sears was trying to paint Reagan a moderate. It was hard to say whether the post-debate deluge of criticism from other Republicans ruined Bush's chances, but if the polls were right he lost about a dozen percentage points in the last days of the campaign. Bush said the flap "clearly hurt me, but I can't blame the entire loss on it." Carter, sticking to a no-campaign policy while U.S. hostages are held in Iran, won with surrogates the first lady and the vice president leading the way and a campaign that parlayed national unity and warm friends made in 1976.

Carter said he was "very pleased" and considered the vote an endorsement of his policies. His national campaign chairman Robert Strauss exulted, "How great it was!" Reagan was low key, saying, "This is the first, and it sure is the best." Gerald Carmen, Reagan's state campaign leader, said, "We always knew if we could puncture George Bush's balloon there would be nothing there but hot air." built, but it qualfied as a first-rate political switch. Last year supervisors said they thought $2.8 million worth of improvements on Highway 116 between Petaluma and Vineburg took precedence over the $6 million link on Highway 12 between South Street and Brookwood Avenue. The link would connect four lanes of Highway 12 with Highway 101 instead of routing traffic on surface streets in front of the fairgrounds. Supervisor Helen Rudee was the only proponent of the Highway 12 link last year when her fellow board members favored Highway 116 improvements.

This year all eight cities in the county favored Highway 12, so Public Works Director Don Head put the project on top of the county's list. That upset Supervisor Brian Kahn, who chastised Head for shifting priorities without direction from the supervisors. Supervisors then decided they wanted comparative accident statistics on the two roads to see which had fender benders and which had fatal or injury accidents. When the evidence came in Tuesday, all the supervisors save Rudee gently switched to the Highway 12 side. Last year the other four supervisors went along when Eric Kocnig-shofer and said Highway 12 problems may be "inconvenient," but that Highway 116 troubles were "significantly more dangerous." This year everyone went along with Kahn's interpretation of the statistics.

He said the figures showed the dangerous areas of Highway 116 are being fixed by the state while the Highway 12 accident rate was 50 percent higher than the state average. After settling on Highway 12, supervisors listed a one-way street project in Sebastopol as its second choice. The $500,000 project is supposed to alleviate the bottleneck at Sebastopol's main intersection by making Petaluma Avenue one-way northbound and Highway 116 oneway southbound. Supervisors' recommendations are passed on to the Metropolitan Transporatation Commission, which then makes recommendations to the State Transportation Commission. However, one public works official said the state told him Tuesday the supervisors' actions made no difference because as a practical matter the state doesn't have enough money in its gasoline tax fund to pay for projects submitted last year.

Settlement people, but we belive they are reasonable," Detwiler said. "We all need to be careful about the way subdivisions proceed." Detwiler said the restrictions would be lifted as Mendocino approves the local plans. The agreement drew criticism from coastal residents, who would be the hardest hit. The coastal plans are unfinished and restrictions won't be lifted until a separate Local Coastal Program (LCP) is completed. Bud Kamb, developer of the proposed Hill Ranch condominium project near Mendocino, said the settlement is unfair.

"We'd need at least three months lead time to prepare for it," Denny said. He said the welfare department and other county agencies are meeting regularly with Buddhist officials to monitor the situation.

The Buddhists have promised that Talmage boat people won't become a welfare burden. Rounds said the Sino-American group hopes to support them through private contributions and federal refugee assistance. He said the Vietnamese are diligent workers and will probably get jobs after they are resettled. Rounds said few of the refugees would stay in the Ukiah area. Denny noted that most refugee costs are paid through the U.S.

In-dochinese Refugee Assistance Program, which expires next year. After that time, the county would be required to pay a share of any welfare costs. Denny said there are presently no refugees on welfare, although four refugee children were receiving benefits for a brief time. The county welfare program' spent more than $9 million last year, although the county's actual share was only $677,496. The rest was paid by the state and federal governments.

Denny said food stamp usage is up slightly, but that Medi-Cal expenses have increased more dramatically. "It's growing because of the high costs of private medical care," he said. The average recipient spends 14 months on assistance. Reg. to 18.00 LADIES' FASHION BOOTS Reg.
