The ensuing political fireworks may take much of the shine off next May's pomp and fanfare. Scott Redmond, a 30-year-old "producer-designer," is planning a $3.2 million festival, replete with "sea parades," "mysterious UFOs" and a three-day "Sportiest" that he hopes will put the official $22 million celebration to shame.

Patricia Novick, of Patricia Nov-ick Associates, who has been awarded more than $200,000 worth of contracts by the Golden Gate Bridge District to plan and carry out birthday activities, dismisses the charges as sour grapes. "The posture he's taken is David against the bureaucratic Goliath," she said. "In fact, he's someone who didn't get the job. He's a promoter interested in self-promotion and visibility."

Aquino said two months ago that she was tearing up the constitution Marcos' rubber-stamp lawmakers had written and rewritten to perpetuate his stay in office replacing it with her own "Freedom That daring move freed her from the shackles of the old constitution, which Marcos had used to declare himself re-elected president after the Feb. 7 election.
