“Raiders,” reminiscent of the
adventure serials of the 1930s
and 40s, was a huge worldwide
success and netted the George
Lucas/Steven Spielberg collabo
ration five adacemv awards
1982.
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.

WASHINGTON — Federal law
forbids sex discrimination
within business partnerships,
the Supreme Court said Tues
day in a unanimous ruling that
boosts career advancement
hopes for millions of women in
law and other professions.
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.

LOS ANGELES — A vital piece
of government evidence, the vi
deotape showing John De Lo-
rean and his chief accuser dis
cussing a plan to import cocaine
and heroin, was played Tues
day for jurors at the former au
tomaker’s drug trafficking trial.
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

Romanov’s most recent mili

Warsaw Pact, Viktor Kulikov.
A Western military attache

heart attack or stroke.
The obituary notice, signed
by Defense Minister Dmitri Us

officials, made no mention of
Romanov’s role in the shooting
down of a Korean Air L.ines
