Tsongas’ economics draw debate fire

COLLEGE PARK, Md. (AP) Paul Tsongas’ pro-business economic views are the target of unending barrages from his Democratic presidential rivals as the candidates face a series of make-or-break contests in the next eight days. The former Massachusetts senator endured the most hits in a weekend debate triple-header, his rivals painting Tsongas as a thinly veiled Republican supporter of business at the expense of the middle class. TSONGAS REJOINED that his ideas were best for the economy and would attract Republicans to vote Democratic in the fall. “There are lots of Republicans out there who will come to us if we give them a home,” he said. When Tsongas got a break, the focus shifted to Arkansas Gov. Bill Clinton, reflecting their leads in a jumbled Democratic contest that should begin to gel after Tuesday. THE DEBATES were a gateway to primaries in Georgia, Colorado, Maryland and Utah, and in caucuses in Washington, Minnesota, Idaho and American Samoa. Those contests, in turn, prelude the 11 contests on Super Tuesday and a smattering of contests in between. Tsongas appears poised to emerge from this Tuesday’s contests with the most wins, and Clinton is the favorite on Southerndominated Super Tuesday. If the campaign unfolds that way, the

mid-March primaries in the industrial Midwest would be pivotal. In the third leg of the debate series Sunday, the Democrats dropped their intraparty warfare on several occasions to aim at President Bush, concurring that on social, environmental and economic policy, any of them was preferable to the president. AFTER SPENDING much of the weekend together debating Saturday night in Colorado, noon Sunday in Atlanta and Sunday night in Maryland three of Tuesday’s biggest battlegrounds, the candidates were going their separate ways today for a final flurry of campaigning. Tsongas was spending the entire day in Maryland, where he’s counting on a victory to prove his New Hampshire win no regional fluke. He leads Clinton in late polls, as he does in Colorado. Clinton had morning events in Maryland before heading to Georgia, where he leads. lowa Sen. Tom Harkin planned events in South Carolina with Jesse Jackson, and California Gov. Jerry Brown headed from Maryland to Georgia, then Colorado. Nebraska Sen. Bob Kerrey stumped in California, Washington and Idaho. THE TWO FRONT-runners dominated most debate clashes, including an acerbic exchange in Colorado Friday night over Tsongas’ support of nuclear power. They were at it again on Sunday, but the

Sex ed debate polarizes this Connecticut town

GREENWICH, Conn. (AP) Allie Hanley shudders when she thinks about sex education classes that cover such topics as contraception and abortion. “The idea of these teachers showing these kids how to use a condom I just can’t believe it,” said Hanley, a mother of two girls, ages 11 and 14. AS THIS affluent New York City suburb considers restoring sex education in its schools, Hanley is pushing for one of about 200 privately marketed sex education courses that teach the virtues of celibacy. Around the country, scores of groups both secular and religious receive federal funds for such courses under the “teen chastity” program created under a 1981 law. Civil rights advocates call the courses an unconstitutional dose of government-sponsored religion. HANLEY FAVORS one of the most popular, Sex Respect, introduced in 1985 by Project Respect Inc. in Golf, 111., and now used in some 1,800 schools. The course teaches, along with abstinence, that “God is supreme.” Topics such as adultery, homosexuality and pornography are anathema in such courses. Birth control is covered, but only to emphasize the failure rate of contraceptives.

flurries were far less personal. “We do not need the best president that Wall Street ever had. That’s what Mr. Tsongas said he wants to be,” Clinton said. Harkin and Brown jumped in as well. “We have to decide: are we going to keep the heart and soul of our party or are we going to be more like Republicans,” Harkin said, directing pointed criticism at Tsongas’ call for a broad-based cut in the tax on capital gains.

“People are seeing the lack of responsibility over the last 30 years, with all the ‘free love’ that went on, and they’re saying that didn’t work,” said Bonnie Park, who uses Sex Respect in her seventh-grade class in Acacia Middle School in Hemet, Calif. SCHOOLS IN Enfield, Conn., dropped Sex Respect last year after parents complained it focused on guilt and shame. The Greenwich schools dropped sex education last year to focus on required anti-drug classes. The School Board takes up the issue Thursday. “It’s a much bigger issue than my own children,” Hanley said. “It’s the explicitness of these courses they have today. They’re just like how-to manuals.” In a class at Staples High School in nearby Westport, psychologist Robert Selverstone used rubberized models to teach 11th- and 12thgraders how to slip on a condom. “THE REAL issue is the majority of kids in our class have engaged in intercourse before they get to our course,” he said. “I want young people to learn to make wise decisions.” Phyllis Matthews, a PTA president, mother of two elementary school pupils and president of the Greenwich chapter of the National Organization for Women, called the abstinence-only program “the equivalent of an ostrich putting its head in the sand.” As of January, teen-agers accounted for 797 of the reported 209,693 cases of AIDS in the United States, according to the federal Centers for Disease Control. A CDC survey released last month found that 40 percent of students have had sexual intercourse by ninth grade, 72 percent by their senior year. “It’s our choice,” said Greenwich freshman Justin Tempest, who doubted the course would change behavior. “Kids our age can’t be forced into anything.”

ATTENTION TCI CABLE SUBSCRIBERS We are approaching a sun outage period during which degradation or the loss of some of our satellite services will occur. This takes place when the orbital positions are such that the satellite and the sun are in one line. We then receive signals from both, but the more powerful sun subdues the desired signal, causing an outage. The outages occur twice a year. The estimated time of these outages will be around 4:19 p.m. to 4:31 p.m. on March Ist and will continue through March 8, 1992. These outages will last anywhere from sto 10 minutes.

THROUGHOUT IT all, Tsongas was resolute in insisting his ideas might not be popular but were the best path to economic growth. “We have to take our money, the precious resources that we have and put it into venture capital, put it into equity capital,” he said. Brown and Harkin teamed up later in turning the heat onto Clinton, both suggesting his pro-en-vironment debate rhetoric clashed with his record back home. Harkin

Hoosier Lottery changes TV show prize structure

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) Winners of the million-dollar prize on the state lottery’s “Hoosier Millionaire” television show will now have to wait 20 years instead of 10 to collect all of their money. The Hoosier Lottery changed the prize structure on its popular weekly television show late last week in an effort to save money, which in turn could be turned over to state government THE CHANGES began with Saturday’s “Hoosier Millionaire” show. The $1 million jackpot available on the show will be paid out in $50,000 installments over a 20-year period. In the past, the prize has been paid SIOO,OOO annually over 10 years. In Saturday’s game, Raymond Burton of Edinburgh failed to win $1 million in the final round, but he walked away with $25,000 from early round earnings and 1,000 Lotto Cash tickets. Under the changes announced Friday, final round players no longer receive a $25,000 consolation prize when their pick reveals the stop symbol. Instead, they receive the 1,000 Lotto Cash tickets. IN ANOTHER final round change, a $150,000 prize will replace the SIOO,OOO prize on the four-square final game board. The $1 million, $200,000 and no-winner squares will remain the same. Other changes will be made on the prize board in the first phase of the game as some higher prizes are replaced by lower dollar-amount awards. “We feel we can make the changes without decreasing the popularity of the show, and in some small way generate more money that we can turn over to the state,” said Kurt Wise, the lottery’s public relations director. “WE’RE LOOKING at all ways to save money, and any

called Arkansas’ state environmental agency a joke, and Brown flashed three headlines he said proved Clinton’s environmental neglect. CLINTON OFFERED a detailed rebuttal in which he cited past environmental support and awards. “You can’t tell by reading headlines and the fellas who are behind in the polls look at the record,” Clinton asserted.

way we can get sales up and transfer more to the state,” he said. “This is one thing we thought we could do to save money.” The change in paying out the $1 million prize over a longer term would save the lottery approximately $190,000 for each millionaire, according to lottery fiscal experts. In the past, the lottery paid SIOO,OOO immediately to a millionaire winner and then bought an annuity that cost $650,000 over nine years to cover the other prize payments. UNDER THE new scheme, the lottery would have to pay out $50,000 up front and $510,000 over 19 years for an annuity, lottery officials said. Wise said it’s also possible the lottery will save money in the final round of the game. A player who picks a $150,000 prize instead of the old SIOO,OOO award might be more reluctant to risk that amount by continuing to play. Now, most players who select SIOO,OOO try to go on and many win a bigger prize, he said. Other changes include: • Offering only one bonus prize in the opening rounds, instead of the current two. In the past, trips and cars have been offered as bonus prizes. Under the new plan, the bonus will be 5,000 instant lottery tickets. • Addition of a doubler square on the 30-square board for the opening rounds. A player who picks that square gets another pick and wins twice the amount revealed. • Elimination of one $4,000 square and one $5,000 square on the 30-panel board. In their places will be added another SI,OOO and an additional $2,000 suqre. Collette Laßue, a lottery spokeswoman, said some of the changes were made in response to viewer and player suggestions.
