national/regional Reagan to talk on arms parley WASHINGTON (AP) - Presi dent Reagan is expected to hold a news conference Wednesday to report on results of the U.S.-Soviet arms talks in Geneva, an administration of ficial said Sunday. The official, who spoke on condition that he not be iden tified, said that while the White House has not yet issued a for mal announcement of the news conference, the televised ses sion with reporters was ten tatively set for Wednesday evening. It is expected to focus on the outcome of Secretary of State George Shultz’s talks Monday and Tuesday with Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei A. Gromyko. Reagan had a brief question and-answer session with reporters on Dec. 7. but he has not held a full-scale news con ference since July 24. ABC News reported Sunday evening that Nancy Reagan has succeeded in persuading the president to hold a news con ference every month. Citing unidentified White sources, the network said Reagan persuaded her husband to do so because she believes regular news con ferences are in his interest. A White House spokesman, Marlin Fitzwater, declined to comment on the ABC report. Norma Paulus: What’s next? SALEM (AP) — Norma Paulus says she is looking for ward to a brief escape from the public spotlight. She cleaned out her desk last week after serving eight years as secretary of state. Paulus is expected to be a leading contender for the Republican gubernatorial nomination in 1986. But she has not committed herself to such a race. “When you've been an elected official for 15 years, you realize that every morning when you’ve gotten up, whatever you say could be on the front page of the paper,” Paulus said. "I would like to be a private citizen for a short period of time. 1 have a lot of op tions and I want to assess them.” Those options, she said, in clude joining her husband’s law practice, teaching at Willamette University, serving on a variety of corporate boards of directors and representing an unnamed Oregon company in its attempts to attract business abroad. And, yes, she is still talking about politics. But she said she won't worry about her own political future until she returns from a 10-day vacation in Arizona. "1 have a lot of people who have been very close to me politically discussing my op tions,” Paulus said, “but 1 will think about that when 1 get back. It has been so intense the last year that I have put it on the back burner.” Paulus leaves office amid widespread admiration and praise for her abilities. Among those who praised her perfor mance was state Sen. Jim Gard ner, D-Portland, who ran a strong campaign for her job in 1984. “I really have pretty good respect for her,” he said. “In the Legislature I noticed that unlike some politicians who become more timid the lunger they are in office, she tended to become more gutsy. I have pret ty high marks for her across the board.” William Radakovich, the former Multnomah County Elections Division ad ministrator who worked with Paulus on several issues, said she "has really been a fighter.” Frohnmayer to start new term SALEM (AP) — Dave Frohnmayer was sworn in Sun day for a second term as Oregon’s attorney general. Frohnmayer, a 44-year-old Republican from Eugene, earn ed a second four years as the state’s top lawyer by defeating Gresham lawyer and former legislator Vem Cook in the November election. At a ceremony in the state Capitol rotunda, Frohnmayer pledged to vigorously defend the interests of the state. “I will not shrink from con troversy. I will give you tough decisions on those issues that call for leadership,” he said in brief remarks following the ad ministration of the oath by Ed win Peterson, chief justice of the Oregon Supreme Court. Prior to being elected attorney general in 1980, Frohnmayer served three terms in the Oregon House and taught at the University law school. He is considered a strong possibility to seek the governor’s post in 1986. Gov. Vic Atiyeh and State Treasurer Bill Rutherford were among those attending the ceremony. /AT yfei UO STUDENTS: Because the Oregon Daily Emerald became an optional student fee last spring, we are now offering refunds to students who have paid un williningly for their subscrip tion to this newspaper.
