Buchanan want? "Who knows what Jerry Brown will do between elections?" said Joseph Cerrell, a longtime activist in Democratic politics in California. Monday, the final day of campaigning before California's huge presidential primary, Brown provided a clue during a speech in Santa Rosa. "The last day of the campaign is only midstream in the movement to take back America and make it work for all the people who live here," he said. Buchanan, the other belle of the 1992 protest vote, had a final flurry of media events in San Francisco Monday before flying east to await the last round of primary returns. Rather than dwell on his inevitable defeat, Buchanan planned to spend tonight in Manchester, N.H., where he beat the "expectations game" last February by garnering 37 percent of the vote against a sitting president seeking renomination.

The next phase of the Buchanan political saga will focus on hard-ball negotiations with the beleaguered Bush crew. At issue will be the role Buchanan will play, if any, when the Republicans hold their national convention in August. "Pat will give a major address in Houston in prime time during the convention week," Paul Erickson, the Buchanan national political director, claimed. "The only question Is whether he will make it inside the hall to all the delegates or at our own convention down the street." "That fundamental decision," Erickson predicted, "will be made by President Bush in June." In return, Buchanan offers to make good on his public pledge of endorsing the president for the November election. He thinks that endorsement is now all, the more valuable since, as Erickson put, "our people are being stripped off right and left to Perot." Having mustered, in general, a quarter to a third of the vote during the long primary" season, Buchanan's rump candidacy could, not be viewed as a tactical success.

But. his, bid will reap only a paltry 100 delegates or, so in Houston. Cox News Service LOS ANGELES The 1992 Democratic presidential primary campaign effectively ends today with the same question as four years ago: What does he want? Only this time it is not Jesse Jackson, but Jerry Brown. On the Republican side, it is much the same issue with Pat Buchanan, whose own protest campaign bedeviled President Bush until independent Ross Perot came to dominate the White House's attention this spring. But where Buchanan has finally pledged to support Bush, his party's nominee.

Brown has not said whether he will work to elect Bill Clinton. Will Brown enlist his famous 1-800 number on behalf of Clinton, a man he has lambasted as a tool of Wall Street and a candidate of the special interests in Washington? Or will Brown try to build himself and his "We the People" presidential campaign into a permanent movement, like Jackson himself or Ralph Nader? Justices to look at Ohio map case Now he tells 'em they didn't do it LOS ANGELES ROSEANNE and TOM ARNOLD didn't trash a $3.5 million mansion after all, their former landlord now says. SPENCER PROFFER had sued the couple for $171,000 to cover broken windows and furniture, a scuffed tennis court and other damage he blamed on the Arnolds, who rented Proffer's home for 10 months beginning in 1989. Proffer has since withdrawn his lawsuit, apologized for filing it and agreed to pay the Arnolds $66,000. Jn a statement Monday, the Arnolds said the settlement "was a complete vindication." They claimed in a lawsuit last year that Proffer had the house trashed to concoct a story he could sell to the tabloids.

Actually, he just likes the vodka ALBANY, N.Y. GUNS N' ROSES guitarist SLASH says he wasn't trying to lead youngsters into drinking through his endorsement of Black Death vodka. Nor was he in it for the money. His real purpose in doing the ads? "Just to get the vodka," he said Monday. "It's good vodka."

expressed confidence that the Dallas businessman will fade well before the November election. The campaign aides also hinted that they are prepared to use attack ads against Perot if he remains a serious threat to Bush's re-election. "If he runs and is a serious candidate, we'll treat him just like any other opponent." Teeter said. "If Perot runs, then we'll figure out how to deal with him." The Bush advisers, who offered their assessment of Perot in an informal meeting with reporters, denied reports that Bush is being urged to reshuffle his Cabinet to give Secretary of State James Baker a more direct role in the campaign.

Supreme Court will take up a legislative map-making case that could have nationwide effect on attempts by some Republican and minority leaders to boost minority and GOP legislative candidates at the expense of white Democrats. The court agreed Monday to consider whether Ohio's new state legislative districts properly enhance minority political power or illegally segregate black voters to enhance Republicans' prospects. Creating predominantly minority districts can increase minority representation in legislative bodies. If that is done by reducing minorities' votes in other districts. Republicans' chances in those districts can improve because minorities tend to vote Democratic.

The Supreme Court agreed to hear an appeal of a U.S. District Court order that the new Ohio House and Senate districts must man at State, Margaret Tutwiler, also said Monday the secretary is staying put. Mosbacher said he was angered by reports over the weekend that he urged Bush to replace White House chief of staff Sam Skinner with Baker. Many political analysts credit Baker with salvaging Bush's 1988 campaign. "I advocated no changes," Mosbacher said.

"I think the White House and the campaign are meshing better and better." Mosbacher, a Texan who said he has known Perot for years, questioned whether the businessman has the ability to work with other government leaders. "He's a tremendous businessman. Very successful. Very focused. Made a hell of a lot of money," Mosbacher said whet, asked his impressions of Perot.

"But he's not a man who's ever had to work with others, other than people who said, 'Yes, sir.

"People are going to take a second look," said former commerce secretary Robert Mos-bacher, titular head of Bush's reelection campaign. "Let's see where Perot is three months from now." While acknowledging that the campaign lacks a clear plan for dealing with Perot's third-party candidacy, Mosbacher and two other top Bush advisers, campaign chairman Bob Teeter and campaign manager Fred Malek, Want to Improve 03701 SKlMGOBIS Hair Before It's Too Late?
