BRIEF EXPLANATORY STATEMENTS
OF PROPOSED
CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS
GENERAL ELECTION
NOVEMBER 4, 1986
PROPOSITION NO. 1
ON THE BALLOT
Senate Joint Resolution 15 pro
poses a eonstitutional amendtnent
that would permit the legislature to
provide by general law for the ap
portionment of the value of railroad
rolling stock among the counties in
which the property of the railroad
is located for purposes of property
taxation, and would delete the re
quirement that the Comptroller par
ticipate in making the allocation. To

stitutional law, the apportionment
currently is being made by the State
Property Tax Board in conjunction
with the Comptroller.
The proposed amendment will ap
pear on the ballot as follows:
“The constitutional amendment to
allow the legislature to provide by
general law for the apportionment
of the value of railroad rolling
stock among counties for purposes
of property taxation.”
rently, a law is invalidated if a
court finds its caption is defective.
The amendment would provide that
past and future enactments may
not be held void on the basis of an
insufficient title.
The amendment also would elimi
nate the suggestion that the state’s
laws be revised every ten years, hnd
instead would provide for continu
ing revision of state laws.
The proposed amendment will ap
pear on the ballot as follows:
“The constitutional amendment re
quiring each house to include in
its rules of procedure a rule that
each bill contain a title expressing
the bill’s subject, and providing
for the continuing revision of
state laws.”
PROPOSITION NO. 2
ON THE BALLOT
Senate Joint Resolution 33 pro
poses a constitutional amendment
that would replace the constitution
al requirement that the subject of a
bill be expressed in its title with a
mandate that each house of the legis
lature adopt rules of procedure that
would require the subject of each
bill to be expressed in its title in a
manner that gives the legislature
and the public reasonable notice of
that subject. Determining compli
ance with the rule would be the re
sponsibility of the legislature. Cur-
PROPOSITION NO. 3
ON THE BALLOT
House Joint Resolution 73 proposes
a constitutional amendment that
would permit the Legislature to au
thorize any county, city, town, or
other political subdivision to use
public funds or credit to pay insur
ance premiums on nonassessable life,
health, or accident policies. Due to
the prohibition in the constitution
against the lending of credit and
granting of public money, political
subdivisions currently are prohibit
ed from becoming shareholders in
associations such as mutual-insur

holders are shareholders. A nonas

does not allow a company to raise
capital by assessing the policy

silent about
coach’s firing
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — Dana
Kirk, who coached nationally ranked
Memphis State into the NCAA bas
ketball tournament the last five sea
sons, was fired by the university on
Wednesday.
School President Thomas Car
penter said assistant basketball coach
Larry Finch would be interim head
coach until a replacement can be
found for Kirk, who led the Tigers
to the Final Four in the 1984-85 sea
son.
Carpenter, in a written statement,
gave no reason for Kirk’s Firing
other than to say the school decided
“to change the leadership of the
men’s basketball program.”
“That’s really all I can say on the
advice of counsel,” said Carpenter
when reached by telephone at his
home.
He said the university would buv
out the rest of Kirk’s contract for
about $ 159,000.
Kirk was not in his office at the
university and could not be reached
for comment. School officials said
they did not know where he was, and
his telephone number is not listed.
In seven years at Memphis State,
Kirk, 5 1, had a record of 158-")8. Af
ter 13-14 records in each of his first
two seasons, Memphis State posted
marks of 24-5, 23-8, 26-7, 31-4 and,
last year, 28-6.
A native of Logan, W.Va., Kirk
came to Memphis State after three
seasons at Virginia Commonwealth
University, five years as an assistant
coach at Louisville and Five years as
head coach at Tampa.

Kirk was called before a grand

months after the panel began inves

CLEVELAND (AP) — The devel
opment of Bernie Kosar from a
promising quarterback into a pro
ductive player has made the Cleve
land Browns’ offense much more
complicated, Cincinnati Bengals*
Coach Sam Wyche says.
“fhe fact that they are able to
produce in the air as well as on the
ground is a problem,” said Wyche,
w'hose Bengals face the Browns
Thursday night in a nationally tele
vised NFL game.
“Last year, if you stopped the run,
you probably stopped their offense,”
Wycne said. “But if you’ve got the
threat of the pass that’s equal with
the threat of the run, youdo’i 1
your options."
