Supreme Court won't review sex ruling

WASHINGTON ((UPI) - De-
spite heavy criticism from the
legal profession, the Supreme
Court yesterday refused for a
second time to fully review the
constitutionality of laws barring
homosexual acts between con-
senting adults in their own
comes.
The justices acted in a brief
order denying a petition for
reconsideration of a one-line
March 29 ruling upholding such
laws. The petition asked the
justices to hold arguments and
issue a full opinion on the case.

IN ITS INITIAL action, the
court, with three justices dis-
senting, affirmed a three-judge
lower court ruling which upheld
a Virginia law barring sodomy
between consenting adults.
The ruling effectively put the
court on record as holding such
laws do not violate constitution-
al rights to privacy.
Many legal scholars condemn-
ed the court as irresponsible for
making what appeared to be a
major constitutional ruling with-
out benefit of arguments or full
opinion.

a new business at his farm near
Lake Seminole.
Davis, who -has been in a
sawmill business for 52 years,
claims his new venture is turn-
ing out the best quality corn
meal anywhere around.
"I got started in it because I
wanted something to do -
something to pacify my mind,"
he said.
Davis still helps his son, Phil-

mill, and grows and processes
his own corn.

Yesterday, the ACLU requests
were rejected.
The Supreme Court almost
never grants requests for a
rehearing.
THE VIRGINIA law makes
both homosexual activities and
oral sex between men and wom-
en criminal offenses. The law
was challenged by two annony-
mous homosexuals, who claim-
ed their rights to privacy were
invaded by threatened prosecu-
tion under the law.
Ino other action, the court:
- Ruled 8 to 0 today that
grand jury witnesses may not

use guarantees against self-in-
crimination to protect them-
selves if they lie under oath.
- Ruled 8 to 0 that the Fed-
eral Power Commission can
take job bias practices into ac-
count when fixing rates so that
money damages power cons-
panies must pay for past dis-
crimination are not forwarded
to company customers. But the
court said the commission has
no power to order changs in
employment practices.

tutionally vague' an Oradell,

to-door solicitors, including opin-
ion pollers and politicians, to
