Topeka Bureau TOPEKA Outlining his plans for a fiscally conservative administration 38-year-old John Carlin Monday took the oath of office to become the state's 40th governor the youngest Democrat to reach that position The Smoian dairy farmer told about 2000 persons who attended ceremonies in Topeka's Municipal Auditorium "I believe in careful prudent allocation of tax resources government must live within its means" That remark later struck a nerve with Rep James Braden R-Wake-field chairman of the House Assessment and Taxation Committee "I can't believe that's the same guy" Braden said of Carlin who served the last two years as speaker of the House Braden said Carlin supported an expensive addition to the homestead property tax relief act during the last legislative session that represented a major expenditure THAT CHANGE ALLOWED persons with minor children meeting certain income requirements to qualify for a break on their property taxes In the Senate Sen Frank Gaines D-Augusta described the address as one Kansans could understand "John isn't a great orator but he's very very serious" Gaines said Carlin said Kansans ask only that public officials provide necessary governmental services while at the same time maintaining sound financial management "The two are compatible" he added "This administration will seek to create an efficient and fair government that will reflect the will and the needs of the Carlin said "I hope that this day will be remembered for our taking the first of many steps toward renewing government with the traits and ideals the pragmatism and the caring of the Kansas people" Carlin said AT ONE POINT in his speech Carlin slipped in what some Republicans regarded as a slap at outgoing Gov Robert Bennett "Ask Kansans what government should be and the answers become significantly similar: Government should reflect the ideals of the people without prejudice without discrimination without arrogance government should reflect the ideals of the people with fairness decency and hope" It was that reference to "arrogance" that a handful of Republicans thought was aimed at Bennett Patrick Bumau a former aide to Gov Robert Docking had a hand in writing the new governor's address (See CARLIN RA Col I) High Court Refuses to Review Case Involving Rights Cinderella would have stayed at this party Page 8A There was a

catches the thieves who stole his color television set Someone burglarized the home of Grant Park zoo's television-watching gorilla during the weekend slipping into the primate house and making off with the TV set that hung just outside the cage "IT BROKE my heart when I heard about it It was a ratty ratty said Pat Dann a spokesman for the Atlanta Zoological Society "Whoever got that television needs to be put inside that cage with him When Willie was returned to the cage from his overnight holding area Sunday "he ran right over to that Dann said But then "he just walked away The S355 color television was hung in front of the gorilla's cage last Wednesday and Willie had shown a fascination for it The set was still there when custodians went to get tools to clean the snake house at 7 -10 a Saturday But it was missing when they returned the equipment 1 i Other Rulings I The Supreme Court also agreed to look at school busing to say whether or not Sen William Prox- mire has libeled a scientist and to decide whether con- sumers can sue over higher prices caused by antitrust violations But it refused to review a Florida law re- quiring the teaching ot virtues" in the public schools people by adopting the first 10 amendments to the Constitution" THE SUPREME COURT did not explain why it refused to review the case In a decision that could have broad national impact the court agreed to review federal court-ordered busing plans in two Ohio school districts The cases stemming from integration battles in Columbus and Dayton give the court a chance to clarify recent decisions about the criteria that must be met before a judge can order system-wide busing or other remedial action In the Dayton case Dayton Board of Education vs Brinkman the court had previously told a federal district court to reconsider a busing order in light of whether school officials had deliberately caused segregation beyond that which would have resulted from housing patterns The district court reviewed the Dayton cast' and dismissed the busing order but it was reinstated by the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals (See HIGH A Col 51 GASP people sigh Page 6A From Our News Services WASHINGTON The Supreme Court refused Monday to be drawn into the growing controversy over smoking in public places but agreed to clarify a previous ruling limiting a judge's ability to order busing for school desegregation Faced with the first public-smoking case to reach the court the justices left intact two lower-court rulings that patrons in the enclosed Superdome in New Orleans have no constitutional right to stop others from smoking during football games or other public attractions Seven non-smoking football fans had argued that smokers in the Superdome were violating the freedom of others to
