James Rhodes, state officials and National Guardsmen named in a $46 million damage suit stemming from the 1970 shootings at Kent State University in which four students were killed and nine injured. The appellate court, in a unani- mous decision, overturned an earlier ruling because at least one juror had been "threatened and assaulted dur- ing the trial by a person interested in its outcome." A SPOKESMAN for Rhodes said the governor would have no imme- diate comment on the ruling. The defendants had been cleared of financial liability in the earlier trial in the U.S. District Court of Judge Don Young. The alleged harassment occurred near the end of the 15-week trial on damages sought by the wounded and survivors of four students killed during the antiwar demonstration May 4, 1970. They claimed the defendants failed'to take adequate precautions to prevent injuries after, armed and untrained Guardsmen were ordered to the campus. A JURY ALSO-cleared the presi- dent of the university and Ohio National Guard officers and enlisted men of liability in the case. It was reported to the district judge that one juror had been threatened three times and assaulted on one occasion. But, the appellate court noted, the judge did not question the threatened juror to learn what effect it had on him or whether he had discussed the threats. The court did not identify the juror. The state attorney general's office had no immediate comment yester- day on whether a criminal investiga- tion would be made. "THE INTRUSION in this case represents an attempt to pervert our system at its very heart," the appellate court said. "No litigant should be required to accept the verdict of a jury which has been subjected to such an intrusion in the absence of a hearing and determina- tion that no probability exists that the jury's deliberations or verdict would be affected." The appellate court took Young to task for failing to determine how much the threat had influenced the other jurors. "Instead, they, the jurors, were merely told that efforts had been made to influence one of their number, with alarming references to the extreme seriousness of the Rhodes See KENT, Page 7 Carter was unaware of FBI file on Lance WASHINGTON (AP) - Three top White House aides read an FBI report in early January detailing the $450,000 in bank overdrafts by Bert Lance and his family but decided not to bring the report to President Carter's attention, Press Secretary Jody Powell said yesterday. Meanwhile, a leading bank regula- tor told a Senate panel that he kept quiet about federal restrictions on one of Lance's Georgia banks be- cause they were confidential and he was afraid of losing his job. POWELL told reporters that he, presidential aide Hamilton Jordan. and Counsel Robert Lipschutz saw the FBI report, dated Jan. 6, and made the decision not to show it to Carter. Detroit election By KEITH RICHBURG A. glut of undecided voters, which some estimate as high as 27 per cent, will determine the challenger candidate to incumbent Mayor Coleman Young; ac- knowledged as a shoo-in in today's mayoral primary in Detroit. The three aspirants, Detroit Councilman Ernest Browne Jr., Wayne State University Law Prof. John Mogk and Southfield contractor Thomas Dailey, all agree the race hinges on the undecided group in a contest where the city's racial divisions are the biggest factor. THEY ALSO agree that Young will capture the ma- jority of Detroit's black vote. However, Dailey's cam- paign manager Joseph Cozzolino says, "Coleman will have to get some white votes" and Browne's campaign manager Ron Hammer adds, "He's gambling that there are more black voters than white." "He's a black bigot," Hammer adds. But Young's campaign manager, Dennis Archer, brushes off the charges, saying, "It's going to be a personal attack on the mayor and not the issues." - THE CONTENDERS do not agree on who will take the challenger position in the primary. Naturally, all are shouting hurrahs to themselves and predicting the vote percentages. As Young's only black opponent, Browne will get "27 per cent or 30 per cent of tomorrow's primary vote," Hammer predicted yesterday. "With that we will finish second." "We think we're going to come in second place," says Richard Walters, Mogk's campaign manager. The Mogk people are just a little less confident than the Browne supporters about the crucial second spot in the non-pasrtisan primary, but they insist that Mogk's lack of endorsements and his limited funds "walking campaign" took him door-to-door and brought him in an unexpected fourth from a crowded field. Now the Mogk faction is hoping for nothing short of second place, as today's two top vote-getters face off in the conming general election this November. ACCORDING to Dailey's latest poll, the undecided voters stand at 27 per cent. The poll put Dailey six points behind Browne for the number two spot. "If the undecideds split three-to-one in our favor, then we've surpassed him (Browne)," Cozzolino says. "Ernie Browne is really our competition." Says Hammer for Browne, "If we get our fair share of the undecided vote we will finish ast least second in the primary." ANOTHER area where the contenders all agree is that Coleman Young can indeed be beaten once a can- didate makes it out of today's primary. "Coleman Young is not the most popular human being in the world," says Hammer. Mogk is an expert on urban housing. A former aide to Governor William Milliken, "Walking John" built up a neighborhood base from his Jefferson-Chalmers area residence in 1973 to emerge from virtual obscurity to win both fourth place in the primary and the lucrative endorsement of the Detroit Free Press that year. NOW MOGK has been plagued by a lack of both funds and momentum, and the lurking fear that a white candidate cannot win in the Detroit electorate. Browne, a two-term councilman, gave up-his seat on the nine-member council to challenge Young after bowing out in the '73 race. A former career municipal employe, Browne has concentrated his efforts in white neighborhoods and has sought to dethrone Young in the incumbent's own domain-the black electorate. Dailey, as his campaign workers readily admit, Powell acknowledged that their judgment is "open to some comment at least." He added, "A lot of us have spent a lot of time thinking about what could have been done to avoid this." On Capitol Hill, Deputy Comptrol- ler of the Currency Robert Bloom said he assumed Carter and the Senate knew about the restrictions when- Lance was nominated to run the Office of Management and Bud- get. BLOOM, who was acting comptrol- ler at that time, described for the Senate Governmental Affairs Com- mittee the phone conversations he had with Lance's attorney and Carter's transition team about what should be made public. Sen. Charles Percy, (R-Ill.), de- scribed the sequence as "a cover-up by the comptroller's office." From December 1975 until last November, the comptroller had- a "cease and desist agreement" in effect With Lance's Calhoun First National Bank to prevent Lance or his family from making overdrafts. Bloom admitted that he had hoped to be appointed comptroller but said he was worried, too, about keeping his $48,000 a year job. "It was only human on my part to worry about the effects on my future," Bloom testi- fied. "It's easier for people of more independent means to be more serious in that regard."
