Page 6/The Battalion/Wednesday, May 23, 1984 Indiana Jones returns today By ROBIN BLACK Senior Stull Writer Those of you who have been waiting — patiently or not — for the past two summers can fi nally get what you want — two hours in the dark with Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones. I ntrepid archeologist-hero Indiana Jones will set off on an other adventure today in the aters across the country in the long-awaited sequel to “Raiders of the Lost Ark.” “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom” will pit Jones and a whole new set of sidekicks against a whole new set of bad guys in another exotic setting — the Far East.

Since lines to get tickets for the movie will be long, tickets have been on sale in advance at Ticketron outlets for $5.50 — $1 more than Lite ticket window price. The extra dollar may be worth it, since the advance ticket guarantees a seat at the show time it is purchased for. The new Indiana Jones ad venture differs in style some what from the first. A CBS Morning News movie critic said Tuesday that the movie is con siderably more violent than “Raiders,” and said Director Spielberg himself questioned whether or not the violence was suitable for young children. But, violent or not, reviews of advance screening indicate that the action is fast-paced in this film, the plot is good, and the two-hour serial should be well worth the wait.

Women’s groups were de lighted with the decision in a case involving a woman lawyer denied partnership in an At lanta law firm. Women argued that excluding private part nerships from the sex bias pro visions of the 1964 Givil Rights Act threatened their progress in the workplace. There are more than 1 mil lion partnerships across the country, including advertising, accounting, securities and con sulting firms. “This is a very big victory,” said Judith Avner, (he New York lawyer for 13 organiza tions who filed legal papers with the court. “A woman now has the assurance she is going to be judged on her merits, the same as her male colleagues, and not on her sex.” Gurrenily women account for only 5 percent of partners in the nation’s largest law firms, while 30 percent of associates — entry level lawyers — are women. “This is going to shake the law firms,” said Dorothy Tracy of the American Association of University Women. The sex discrimination case was brought by Elizabeth Hi- shon, who was denied part nership at the prestigious At lanta law firm King and Spalding. As a result of the ruling, Hi- slion will pursue her charges at trial. A spokesman for King and Spalding declined comment while the case is still subject to litigation. A district court judge had thrown out her suit, ruling part nerships are business mar riages, and that applying fed eral anti-bias law would infringe on their freedom of association. The 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals backed this decision. In the high court’s ruling, Chief Justice Warren Burger said once an employment relationship has been estab lished, a person has the right to be promoted without consider ation of race, sex or other simi lar factors. “A benefit that is part and parcel of the employment relationship may not be doled out in a discriminatory fashion, even if the employer would be free under the employment contract simply not to provide the benefit at all,” Burger said. Burger said there is no con stitutional protection for “invid ious private discrimination.” In other decisions released Tuesday, the high court: • Voted 5-4 that federal judges do not have the power to set timetables for the government’s review of millions of Social Se curity disability claims. • Ruled 6-2 that Alaska can not force purchasers of state- owned timber to process the logs in the state. \ group o sell :ntists pla S ofexperi eclipse fr b Excellei wing area ‘Weather liipment ■ ; a very Charles mlntal engin luring tl ted to ta ur, metec hini and measure kv the sun’: nt. itammont will dive ftord migr; tom orga |ke tows v ngesin or De Loreon drug trial continues Videotape used as evidem [Giammon; roup of , :asu remen a simila Bms are b< rale alon tterns, an< gration ipse seem Jy-night p Brees.

Prosecutors have said the tape of the Sept. 4, 1982, meet ing is significant because the au tomaker was apparently given a chance to back out of the nar cotics transaction and declined. Janies T. Hoffman, a federal informant who is the star pros ecution witness, testified before the tape was played that agents instructed him to use clear nar cotics terms and “to give him specific understanding that he was not compelled to do the deal.” De Lorean, 59, is charged with conspiring to import $24 million worth of cocaine in a failed attempt to save his North ern Ireland sports car coni|Mj’} ie t eam He claims he was lunwHperiments Hod man and over/ealousf m( ij n g S eminent agents. ; ■ The videotape, played iiM^ {uU e courtroom on big screen!^ Br sets, shows Hoffman it ,i r esn out the terms of a Col, i, 1S e e< coke program. ftoa.m.CS' We don l want to haveii shortly befon part of any program, youIfl that you're not comforMfhg ec ijp St with, 1 mean if you don’i® a y i s ca |j e< Rise it leave: to do it...” Hoffman said.
