28 THE BOSTON GLOBE WEDNESDAY. OCTOBER 20. 1982 This candidate would be happy with 3 percent of the vote claiming they have made child care "prohibitively expensive" for working women. Shipman said her biggest surprise so far in the campaign has been Dukakis' refusal to participate in more than one televised debate. That debate is to be held Saturday and its sponsor, the League of Women Voters, has decided to include only the two candidates who raised sufficient contributions to qualify for matching state campaign funds Dukakis and Sears.

fore in the history of mankind. And so I came to it economically first and switched from someone who was liberal economically to someone who was a libertarian economically. "At the same time I was very much a liberal in terms of social policy. I had gone into the school of social work, taking a very liberal viewpoint in terms of human freedom, civil rights and things like that. So I was already pretty much in line with the libertarian position on civil liberties, the idea that indi A televised debate, she noted, would give her publicity she could not otherwise receive.

Shipman lives in Mansfield and is working on a doctorate in education from UMass-Amherst. She received degrees in sociology and counseling from West Virginia University, near her hometown of Par-kersburg. W. Va. Since 1974 she has taught at Massasoit Community College in Brockton, where she is chairman of the Human Services Department.

Party philosophy holds that the only proper function of government is the protection of life, liberty and property of individuals.

The state budget inists since iy8 and circulated nominating petitions for Libertarian Ed Clark in his 1980 run for the presidency. She said she was approached last year by Libertarian Party members looking for someone, especially a woman, to run for governor. She had never run for public office.

"It was one ot those things that I found too difficult to walk away from. There weren't clear reasons why I should do it. I was going to give up six months' income. I was going to be giving up a step on the seniority list at Massasoit Community College, perhaps endangering my professional career by running as a candidate from a minor party. And yet with all those reasons not to do it.

I kept saying to myself, 'how am I going to feel in a year' not knowing what kind of growth this would have represented." In February she was nominated on the first ballot at the Libertar- -ian nominating convention at the Somerville Holiday Inn. with about 200 party members attending. Once a volunteer'campaign worker for Eugene McCarthy's unsuccessful bid for the Democratic presidential nomination in 1968, Shipman said she first became interested in libertarian ideas while a student at West Virginia University. "I started reading basically libertarian materials about the early beginnings of this country. and these were books that questioned whether capitalism really hurt the poor and instead took the position that capitalism had given the poor opportunities that never existed be Pa.

Under her plan, almost every state department would be cut back substantially. Seme of the more controversial features of her proposal are legalization of so-called "victimless crimes" such as prostitution and drug use and selling the MBTA and state parks and forests.

The Libertarians' long-term goals Include elimination of welfare. Medicaid and public education and selling all major highways to be run as private toll roads. In an the 33-year-old Shipman said, "I think that all of us go through kind of a life cycle crisis. when it becomes time to take some relatively dramatic step that we hadn't in the past." She took the step and entered the fray for the highest elected office in the state. Shipman had been a member of the Association of Libertarian Fem it would be an asset.

She said she supports the Equal Rights Amendment and the right of women to choose whether or not to have an abortion, although she opposes public funding of abortions "because 1 believe that this is one of the most difficult ethical decisions of our time, and really honest, good, caring people can be on opposite poles on this issue, and it is unfair to make someone pay their tax money for a moral decision they would not personally make. "I also believe that if we deregulated medical care in this commonwealth and took away some of the exclusive licensed privileges from the American Medical Association, abortion procedures would be so cheap that public funding would no longer be an issue." i She opposes the state's regulations governing day-care centers. lit rim FILL OUT A CHANCE EACH DAY YOU VISIT NO PURCHASE NECESSARY, MUST BE MRS.

Edward M. Kennedy and Republican Raymond Shamie, opponents for election to the Senate in the Nov. 2 election. The debate will be held at 8 p.m. Sunday at Boston College's Theater Arts Center and will be televised by Boston's three major television stations and by a Springfield station.

After rejecting former ABC-TV newsman Howard K. Smith as a moderator, Kennedy negotiators agreed on Channel 5's Gene Pell. Questions will be asked by four panelists: Brian McNiff of the Worcester Gazette; Shelby Scott of WBZ-TV, Ch.4; Joe Day of WNEV-TV. Ch.7; and Glen Briere of the Springfield News.

Dukakis leads his Republican opponent. John W. Sears, by a margin of 50 percent to 31 percent, according to a poll conducted for the Sears campaign.

Goldberg attributed Sears' improved standing to television commercials the Sears campaign has been airing during the past Week. A sizable majority of Massachusetts voters surveyed in a recent poll say they will vote to retain the bottle law. The copyrighted poll sponsored by WHDH radio and WCVB-TV found that 68 percent of the 702 voters surveyed said they would vote yes on Question 4, which is a vote to keep the bottle law. Twenty-seven percent said they would vote no, which is a vote favoring repeal of the law, while 6 percent said they were undecided. The poll suggests a reversal from a WHDH-WCVB-TV poll taken a month ago, which said voters favored repeal by a margin of 52 percent to 42 percent.

However, an analysis of the data at that time indicated voter confusion about what a yes or no vote meant, according to WHDH spokesman Neil Ungerleiter. The bottle law requires deposits on all soft drink and beer containers. The new poll detected widespread support for the bottle law among Democrats, 69-25 percent; among Republicans, 71-25 percent: and among Independents, 65-29 percent. The strongest support for the law was registered in the city of Boston, 80-19 percent. The poll has a margin of error of 3.8 percent and was conducted by telephone between Oct.
