He also twitted Hatfield for getting anxious. "After all, I'm closer to it the legislature than he is." he said. Boivin said the senate is "more selective this year in sending bills to the governor, He has a record for vetoes and there is no sense in send ing him bills of low quality." "Our batting average this year is going to look very. very respectable," Boivin said. Both Boivin and Duncan have cracked the whip over key committees the past week and point out that important bills are ready to hit the floor bills that have been thor oughly considered.

Sullivan's acceptance follow ed a few hours after Paar made a special statement on his own program promising that he would not pack the audience with pageboys and sponsors if Sullivan appeared. The great debate, which ap parently will follow the lines of the Kennedy-Nixon presi dential debates, will, be held Monday, Sullivan said, and the major issue will be money, Or to be more exact, how much money should Paar and Redmond Gets Job Portland - (UPD - James F. Redmond, who was one of the top candidates to succeed J. W. Edwards as Portland school superintendent, has ac cepted a position with a man agement consultant firm in Chicago. Redmond, recently-resigned school superintendent at New Orleans, was one of eight can didates for the Portland post, before he joined Booz, Allen & Hamilton of Chicago. Mrs. Forrest E. Rieke, chair man of the Portland School board, was notified of Red mond's decision in a telegram. Sullivan pay their guest per formers on their rival shows. "Paar insists that Ameri cans have the inalienable right to work, for less," Sul livan said. "I say Americans have the inalienable right to work for more. Sullivan said that on the assurance of an NBC-TV vice president that "the audience will not be rigged," he will name his seconds (he called them moderators) Sunday to meet with Paar's seconds and arrange more ground rules for the debate which has a lot of big name performers wonder ing what side of the fence to jump on. Sullivan said Friday that he would not agree with Paar in' front of a studio audience be cause "his audience is notor ious. He plays his audience like an organ." But this morn ing, Sullivan after a night at the theater and an attempt to watch the Paar show (failed: poor TV reception) issued a formal statement. "Relying on assurances from NBC-TV that the debate which I have proposed be tween Jack Paar and me will be conducted on a high level, I will waive my insistence on the elimination of Paar's stu dio audience at the- video taping of our debate on his show next Monday. I'll have to miss the Patterson - Jo hannson fight, darnit," Sulli van said in an aside.

The Montana Democrat, like Kennedy a Catholic, said the two-package approach would let members of Con gress "stand up and be count ed" and clear the way for a supreme court test on the le gality of private school aid. Backers of Kennedy's $2.3 billion measure providing fed eral grants for school con struction and increasing teach ers' salaries fear that injec tion of the private school aid issue may doom the Presi dent's bill. Protestant and Jewish de nominational spokesmen con tended in senate testimony Friday that loans to parochial and other private schools would definitely violate the constitutional mandate for separation of church and state. Catholic spokesmen, differing with Kennedy's view, have urged inclusion of long-term, low-interest loan aid in the administration's package bill. Will Do Best Mansfield, until now, has declined to say anything about the private aid issue other than that he will do his "best" to support the President's program. But In an Interview with United Press International yesterday he gave this ap praisal: "My guess is that we'll be confronted with two educa tion proposals - first, the President's proposal and, sec ond, a bill extending aid to private schools in the form of long-term, low-interest loans. "Such loans possibly would be applicable to those schools on a construction basis or on a pupil basis, or both," Mansfield added that "in this way the congress will have assumed the initiative and carried out its responsibil ity as a co-equal branch of government. ' Gives Chanc "It will also give members a chance to stand up and be counted," he concluded. The Democratic leader said that if a separate private loan bill is passed and approved by the President, he would as sume that "a constitutional test would follow." Mansfield said tiiat such a Supreme Court review would "definitely settle" what he considers to be a "real" con stitutional question. Sen. Wayne Morse (D-Ore.), chairman of the Senate Edu cation subcommittee, is firm ly opposed to attaching a pri vate school loan program to the administration bill. Sen. Joseph S. Clark (D-Pa.), who was drafting such an amend ment, said he may save his proposal for another bill. Committee Polled An informal poll of Morse's subcommittee showed that Clark's $305 million low in terest loan amendment would muster only three or four of nine votes.' Sen. Benjamin A. Smith, II (D - Mass.), President Ken nedy's successor in the Sen ate, took a stand on the school aid issue generally support ing the chief executive. "If an arrangement can be made for federal loans to parochial schools that does not violate the Constitution, I will support It," he said in a statement. "But this issue should not be used to detent, once again, general federal aid to educa tion. We have waited many years for such aid and we need it very badly." Express Support New Jersey's two senators. Republican Clifford P. Case and Democrat Harrison A. Williams Jr., both expressed their support of long-term, low-interest school construc tion loans to parochial and other private schools. Both volcd for such an amendment last year. In a Joint television interview, they said they felt such loans would be constitutional. sr. PATRICK'S YrL ft r adpac 217 I.

George Van Hoomissen, (D-Portland), said Friday the governor's propos al to lease the Boardman bombjng range in eastern Ore gon to Boeing Airplane com pany could result in "the big gest land grab in the history of the state." He criticized Gov. Mark Hatfield for what he described as an attempt to "stampede the legislature" into approv ing bills completing the Boardman lease. Asked for his reaction to the statements, the governor replied: "No comment." Subleased Van Hoomissen, an attor ney, said he has heard testi mony that 96,000 acres of the space age industrial park could be subleased by Boeing to farms and cattlemen in Morrow county for "twice the annual rental which Boeing currently is offering to pay the state." The proposed lease would have Boeing pay the state $60,000 a year. The Joint Ways and Means comimttee Friday morning voted 7-6 to delay approval of the enabling legislation for three weeks in order for the State Planning and Develop ment department to get an appraisal of the land involved. Indications so far are that Boeing intends to use the site for testing rocket engines and similar space age activities. yNflTUR I CHRISTIAN i SCIENCE J JEALSg Station K-BOY Sundays 9:45 A.M. save $15 on a deluxe straight-sew portable ONLY 5 DOWN MENDS, DARNS, REVERSES So easy to use!
