    RULING
Continued from Page i
•Women seeking abortions must be told about
fetal development and other available options.
• Women must postpone the alxrrtlon at least 24
hours after receiving thut Information
•Doctors must keep records on each abortion
performed. Those records am subject to public
disclosure.
• Unmarried girls under IB must get parental
consent or state court permission before having
an abortion.
The court ruled against a provision of the Penn
sylvania law that required mairied women to in
form their husbands of their plans for an abortion
Fldanque said that such regulations will effec
tively eliminate abortion as a viable option for
many women. He pointed to the judicial bypass
clause of the parental consent regulation as an ex
ample of an unreasonable requirement.
“The process of going to a judge to get permls
sion to have an abortion is so intimidating and so
humiliating for most women," Fldanque said,
"we fear that many will try to Induce abortions
themselves or turn to back alleys."
However, Rahm said the restrictions included
in the Pennsylvania law are support's! by the ma
jority of Americans.
"Groups like NARAL and Planned Parenthood
present themselves as being pro-women, but at
the same time reject giving women and unborn
children any protection," Rahm said. "They take
a very extreme position and are unwilling to con
sider anything that protects women or unborn
children.”
Co-authoring the court's opinion, conservative
justices Sandra ‘Day O'Connor, Anthony M. ken
rnxly and David H Souter adopted on "undue
burden" standard for judging abortion regula
tions The test demands strict judicial scrutiny of
regulation that imposes an "absolute obstacle or
severe limitation on the abortion decision "
F'indanquo said the undue burden test will tnl
tiato a surge of regulations at the slate level
"Bv adopting an undue burden standard the
court has opened the door to all sorts of restric
lions," Fldanque said
In Oregon, the abortion issue will figure into
the November elections as obortion activists vie
to shift the voting balance in the state legislature
In its current form, the stale house of representa
tives is virtually split down the middle tut the is
sue. although anti-abortion forces have a strong
ally in House Speaker Larry C-amplxtll, K-liugene
Whatever |H>sture it eventually assumes, next
year’s legislature will likely become a battle
ground for the abortion Issue
“Our expectations." Kuhm said, "are that in the
IttSd session (here will bo some legislation intro
duced along the lines of the Pennsylvania slat
ute."
Flndanque said Oregon's history as a pro
choice state will make the going tough for anv
abortion restrictions.
"Oregon has a history of being pro-choice and
wo don’t expect that to change anytime soon." lie
said.
Meanwhile. Congress Is propping for debate on
the Federal F’reedom of Choice Act The act
would block states from enacting restrictions on
ubortlons during the first stages of pregnancy
The act could reach the house floor by next
week But pro-choice forces do not have the need
ed to overturn an expected presidential veto
BYRNE
Continued from Page 1
Byrno said it was tough to
come back to Kugeno after in
terviewing in Lincoln and real
ize that ho whs rnnlly leaving.
"I have a lot of friends here,
and I love this state," Byrne
said. "I Just spent throe days
fly-fishing on the Deschutes
Kivor. They don't have that (in
Nebraska).”
Byrne wasn’t the only one
getting a little sentimental
about his tonurc at the Univer
sity. Dan Williams. University
vice president for administra
tion, said he has mixed feelings
ubout Byrne's departure.
"He was the first person I
hired when 1 took this job,"
Williams said. “So it's a per
sonnl and a professional loss "
Williams said ho wasn't sur
prised when ho hoard the nows
about Bymo's now job. "Bill's a
young man." ho said. “There
was no reason to think ho'd re
tire hore."
The process to find a sucres
sor for Byrno won't got under
full steam until September
when many faculty and staff re
turn, Williams suid. He said the
University will begin advertis
ing and recruiting for pros
pects A selection com mi t lee
chaired by Williams will re
