Show 2A Friday, March The Salt Lake Tribnne 16, 1984 , Dennis the Menace Hank Ketcham By Royko Urges Voters To Lie to Pollsters Chicago Tribune columnist Mike Royko Thursday urged voters in next Tuesdays Illinois primary to lie to exit pollsters in order to confound television network projections of early winners. Be polite. Talk to them. But lie. Dont give them one honest answer, Royko wrote in his syndicated column. If you voted for Mondale, say you voted for Hart. If you voted for Hart, say you voted for Mondale. Or if Glenn is still in the race, say you voted for him. When they ask you why you voted for Hart, say it is because he is so mature and serious that he reminds you of your grandfather. Or say you voted for Mondale because he reminds you of Johnny Travolta. anRoyko predicted the pollsters will take your swers and feed them into a computer, which will chew on them, digest them and finally burp a sheet of paper. The networks high priests of politics will stare at the numbers, then announce: I project the winner as . . . But he said if enough voters lie, The entire nation will be treated to one of the finest evenings of television viewing since the tube was unleashed. CHICAGO (UPI) Glenn Plans Pullout; - Continued From Page One very well indeed in Saturdays caucuses there. For McGovern, Thursday was the last day of his third bid for the partys nomination. The former senator reflected on some of the labels he picked up this the conscience, peacemakyear er and elder statesman of the Democratic party quite a contrast to the attacks he faced after winning the nomination in 1972, only to lose the election in a landslide to Richard Nixon. Quite frankly, Id rather have been the candidate than the conscience and I would rather be president than peacemaker, but these new titles are better than some of those I gained after 1972, he said at a news conference in Washington. Refusing to endorse either Hart or Mondale, McGovern said either can defeat President Reagan in the fall "if they dont chop each other up along the way. Glenn was set to become the fifth candidate to drop out of the race with the announcement due at a Friday news conference, according to sources close to the Ohio senator. Hes withdrawing, said one close adviser. I think that he made the correct decision under the circumstances. Glenn finished no better than second in any primary or caucus. At his final meeting with reporters as a candidate, McGovern warned both Mondale and Hart about campaign tactics. There should be no character attacks, no excessive bitterness of the kind that is hard to heal. But I dont want them to turn into a couple of milquetoasts who are afraid to cut each other but to do it in a constructive way, he said. Hart complained on Thursday that Mondale was doing just what McGovern warned against. There is constructive criticism and there is destructive assault, he added. In politics and in life there is a fine line between a desire for office and an inordinate need for power. There is a fine line between le- gitimate ambition and blind ambition. Hart is quite sensitive about issues he said were raised in the ads. He has repeatedly misstated his age in official documents. He has given several versions of why he changed his name and he has changed from signing his name Gary Warren Hart to Gary Hart. Mondales spokeswoman Maxine Isaacs said Hart's charges were biand that the zarre accusations campaign had been running no such ads and planned none. She did say new Mondale ads will go on the air Friday night in Illinois, comparing the candidates on the issues. They don't raise the question of his name or age, she said of the ads. iR I I I I I I I I I I I I I R e i i i E I I I M R & I a Ek CUP Sc Autry died at 12:40 a.m. Wednesday, executed by lethal injection.

Shepard said that period will expire about 1 a.m. Friday, the approximate time that it was known his family was notified of Autrys death.

Legitimate Argument If the Reagan version fails, Hatch told a reporter, I think a legitimate argument could be made later in the session to offer a silent prayer amendment. Reagan has made a constitutional amendment permitting school prayer a cornerstone of his effort and has been pushing it strongly in the last several months. The Reagan-backe- d version states: Nothing in this Constitution shall be construed to prohibit individual or group prayers in the public schools or other public institutions. No person shall be required by the United States or by any state to participate in prayer. strued to prohibit individual or group silent prayer or silent reflection in public schools.

Reagan referred to Hussein as a friend. . . crucial to the peace process." Hussein was in Washington only last month for meetings with Reagan. The president conferred at the White House on Thursday with Secretary of State George P. Shultz, regarded as the chief architect of the peace initiative, and National Security Council staff specialists on the Middle East. Reagan declined comment when reporters questioned him later. But White House spokesman Larry Speakes said the peace plan is still on the table. We would hope that in time, King Hussein . . . could continue as an active participant as he has in the past." Speakes said the administration had received no indication that Hussein would make the comments. We think it is regrettable the Arabs have not yet shown the willingness to go forward in the peace process, Speakes said. The Reagan plan focused on having Jordan represent Palestinian interests in peace talks with Israel aimed at resolving the status of the occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip. Hussein has held several apparently unproductive meetings with Yasser Arafat, chief of the Palestine Liberation Organization, to try to work out a joint negotiating strategy. Their most recent talks were last week. The State Departments Hughes defended the Reagan initiative as the most realistic, workable and promising approach to a .solution. Backing away from negotiation, even temporarily, does nothing for the Palestinian cause. He said there have been ups and downs in U.S. peaqe efforts in the past and that the administration remains committed to the plan. Obviously the king is in a pessimistic phase, Hughes said. He suggested Husseins criticism of the United States may stem frorrf worry over the danger of Syrian-backe- d n terrorist assaults. A Jordanian diplomats have been attacked in recent months and several have been killed. One of Husseins complaints in the interview was that the United States seems to blame Arab nations for the failure of the peace initiifeve to get off the ground, noting that Israel had rejected it from the outset. Israel was the force that rejected it, that did not wish peace, yet we are portrayed as if we are the party that is opposed to peace, he said. Apart from being unjust, it is also incorrect. State Deparatment officials, who insisted on anonymity, said Hussein is particularly incensed that the United States has not been able to make Israel stop building settlements in the occupied territories. It was understood that Reagan earlier this month rejected an appeal by Hussein to support a United Natins resolution condemning Israeli settlements as illegal. One department official said Hussein believes the United States should threaten to withhold military and economic aid to Israel to force a settlements freeze, but the administration believes this would De counterproductive and cause Israel to be even less willing to make conceshalf-doze- V sions. But Hussein said U.S. support for Israel had undermined American credibility in the region. We see things the following way, he said. Israel is on our land. It is there by virtue of American military and economic aid that translates into aid for Israeli settlements. Israel is there by virtue of American moral and political support to the point where the United States is succumbing to Israeli dictates. But Hughes made clear the United States will not turn its back on Israel for the sake of better relations with Arab nations.

President Reagan deserves a vote on the amendment he favors, Thurmond said. Sen. Orrin Hatch, the original sponsor of a silent-onl- y sion, also urged that Dixons proposal be tabled because he felt the president deserved a straight vote on his measure, without the silent proposal as a fallback position. He said Dixons version was unnecessarily divisive and would likely result in no amendment being approved.

Sen. Lowell Weicker, who is leading opposition to any amendment, told reporters he thinks there is a chance to defeat Reagans version. But, he said, the presidents got four days to lobby and thats not an insignificant time and hes not an insignificant man. Dixon said after the vote that the administrations amendment will fall significantly short. But he said, that isnt the end of the game because the silent prayer version may come up later in the session and the votes are there to pass it. Dixon urged his colleagues to accept his proposal, calling it the large middle ground that I believe most Americans support between having no constitutional amendment and having one that permits spoken prayer. Proposal Will Fail We all know its a foregone conclusion that the administration proposal will fail, he said. But Sen.

Franklin, 33, will be charged Tuesday or Wednesday with the deaths of Alphonce Manning Jr., and Toni Schwenn, both 23, in a mall parking lot Aug. 7, 1977, Dane County District Attorney Hal Harlowe said Wednesday. Harlowe said he is awaiting police reports and a handwriting analysis before filing the charges. Franklin was acquitted in the 1380 shooting of National Urban League President Vernon Jordan. He is serving life sentences in a Marion, 111., federal prison for the 1980 killings of two black men in Utah as they jogged with white women. Authorities also said Franklin may have been involved in the 1978 shooting of Hustler magazine publisher Larry Flynt in Lawrenceville, Ga and the 1977 firebombing of a suburban Washington, D.C., home owned by an Israeli diplomat. Harlowe said filing the charges would initiate the process of returning Franklin to Wisconsin. a nrws story or fraturr you want to talk about?

The cemetery is named for a state executioner whose career spanned much of the era when executions were carried out by electric chair. Burials in the cemetery, said Shepard, are handled with a very dignified service, usually attended by a warden, the prison chaplain and six convicts who act as pallbearers. Graves in the Byrd cemetery have whitewashed concrete markers. Except for those from early in this century, the grave stones bare only the inmates number and his death date. The funeral home places a soft metal tag next to the stone, but Shepard said they only last a short time, depending on the weather conditions. Shepard said a lack of money is usually the reason families do not claim inmates bodies. He said it would cost about $300 to ship Autrys remains to his familys hometown of Florence, Colo. The Rev. David Freeling, president of the Eastern Fremont County Ministerial Association and pastor of the Florence Presbyterian Church, organized a burial fund for Autry, but said no money has been donated. Freeling said he was unable to contact the family because they have no telephone.
