ENGLERT'S HOME COMFORT CENTER Martin Luther King Day is law; when it will fall is not yet clear WELCOMES DEBBIE FRIELER TO OUR SALES AND DESIGN STAFF INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) Gov. Robert D. On fixed 2 p.m. March 10 as the precise time he signed a bill creating a very imprecise state holiday honoring the late Martin Luther King Jr. On said it was premature for him to decide an exact date.

The law takes effect Sept. 1. Orr previously has proclaimed the holiday to be the same date as the federal holiday, the third Monday in January. Instead of proclaiming the holiday by executive order, he now will designate it as a matter of law. While the proclamation date fell on the federal holiday, state employees were allowed to trade that day off for another day in the year, such as an extra day in the Christmas season.

That also would be the case under the new law, which will expire along with Orr's administration. Proponents of the King holiday have said they believe the Legislature will renew it for future governors. The new law does not pin On-down to a specific date or to the federal schedule. "I want to make sure that whatever date is decided, it's appropriate," Orr said. "I don't even know that all the other states would celebrate it on that (federal) holiday." Orr presented the signing pen to Rep.

Charlie Brown, D-Gary, who has worked for four years to get the holiday into the lawbooks instead of just an executive order by Orr. "I'm very appreciative of the governor opening the door by executive order the past three years," Brown said. "We're proud that Indiana is one of the 37 states that has done this," said Rep. Hurley Goodall, D-Muncie, chairman of the Black Legislative Caucus. Sen.

Carolyn Mosby, D-Gary, and Indianapolis Urban League spokesman Sam Jones urged Orr to choose the national observance date for the state holiday. 5s Bowen's son looks like a candidate DEBBIE HAS AN ASSOCIATE DEGREE IN INTERIOR DESIGN, AND HAS SEVERAL YEARS OF EXPERIENCE Her responsibilities include residential and commercial interiors, sales and interior decorating of wallcoverings, custom draperies, Red Spot paint, showcase furniture, floor covering, custom window blinds and alternate window treatments.

Bowen did not announce his candidacy for the secretary of state's job, but said a second announcement would be forthcoming after his term as judge expired.

In the letter, Bowen said he had enjoyed his five-year, three-month term on the Marshall County bench and said he had decided to resign only "after a determination that well-qualified and interested candidates exist to fill the vacancy." PLYMOUTH (UPI) The son of U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Otis Bowen has resigned his seat as a Marshall County judge, paving the way for a run for the Indiana secretary of state's office. Robert Bowen Monday made public a letter he sent Friday to Gov. Robert Orr and the state supreme court, announcing his resignation effective March 21. The announcement by Bowen.

33. sets the stage for a possible November race that would pit two of the most famous names in recent Indiana political history. Evan Bayh, son of former U.S. Sen. Birch Bayh, is the leading candidate for the Democratic nomination for the post.

State Republicans had been urging the younger Bowen to run for the office, in part because he would enter the race with name recognition to match Bayh's. Bowen earlier said he was interested in the race, but added it would be difficult to surrender his position as a judge.
