Court to hear death penalty case

WASHINGTON (UPI) - The Supreme Court agreed
yesterday to decide whether a man can be executed
for murder when it was his accomplice who actually
pulled the trigger.
The case poses a significant test of whether capital
punishment can be imposed for felony murder, in
which a person is held responsible for a killing that
occurs during commission of another crime.
THE JUSTICES WILL hear the appeal of Earl
Eninend, sentenced to die in Florida's electric chair
for the April, 1975, robbery and shooting deaths of an
elderly couple.
Enmend contends his death sentence violates the
Constitution's ban against "cruel and unusual
punishment" because his only participation in the
crime was to drive the getaway car.

This is the first case to test the constitutionality of
capital punishment for felony murder since the high
court ruled in 1976 that execution is not necessarily
forbidden by the Eighth Amendment.
BEFORE STARTING A two-week recess, the,
court also:
" Stepped into a major construction industry
discrimination dispute, agreeing to decide whether
contractors can be held liable for racial bias prac-
ticed by union "hiring halls."
" Agreed to review a New York law that lets cable
television companies install equipment on private
property without paying the owner or getting his
permission.
" REFUSED TO disturb a decision that says, in ef-
fect, elderly Medicare patients do not have a right to

have televisions and telephones in their hospital
rooms.
* Avoided entering a 7-year-old dispute over access
to computer tapes of tax information by telling an
appeals court to reconsider the case because
Congress recently amended the law to bar disclosure
of the tapes; and
" Left intact a ruling that an airline must comply
with a state's health and safety laws in addition to
Federal Aviation Administration rules.
The Florida case is the second capital punishment
issue the court is expected to decide in its new term.
The justices agreed before their summer recess
consider whether a person can be executed for a
crime committed when he is under age 18.

D-Calif.) accepted the petitions at a rally on the

ampaign against Watt, a former Colorado attor-
ted with pro-development interests.
an voices are calling for James Watt to go," said
rance, president of Friends of the Earth. He
petitions symbolic of "a gathering wave of op-
Watt's policies.

Sierra Club president Joe Fontaine said the rally marked
the largest citizens' petition ever presented to Congress,
proving "the American people will not tolerate the tide of an-
ticonservation policies being pursued by the Reagan ad-
ministration."
CRANSTON called Watt a "puppet of the exploiters and
destroyers" who is pursuing reckless and irresponsible
policies in managing the nation's natural resources.
"I say . James Watt must go," declared the California
senator, who voted against Watt's confirmation. "I
feared the worst then and even worse
things have happened than I anticipated since
James Watt became secretary of interior."
O'Neill congratulated the groups, predicting their voices
would be heard in Congress and the White House.
After delivering their petitions, tied with red ribbon into
bundles conspicuously marked by their states, the state en-
vironmental leaders split into groups to lobby their
congressional delegations for Watt's ouster.

SCHARFF SAID he is impressed by

Who is the ideal candidate?
Scharff said his "ideal" student has a
3.5 GPA, is an officer of a campus
organization, has held a part-time job
while in college, and has showed
initiative in obtaining summer em-

relevant to his or her field.
The candidate should also be

interpersonal skills, Scharff added.
William Mair of Touche Ross has his
own version of the perfect prospective
employee: "My ideal candidate would
be somebody who can walk on water."

THE TASK FORCE report pointed
out that universities nationwide have
joined forces with industry to develop
new research organizations. Notable
examples included the Harvard-Mon-
santo research agreement, the Stanford
Affiliate program, and a research-
oriented foundation developed at the
University of Wisconsin.
"At the University of Minnesota they
have an organization that got $4 to $6

research," Gamota said. "We could do

English Prof. Richard Bailey asked
whether the University would be able to
retain control over the MRC once it
became self-sufficient.
Howe replied that ultimately the
University Regents would direct the
policy of the corporation, but its board
of directors would apply immediate
control of MRC.
Psychology Prof. Donald Brown said
he wondered if the establishment of the
MRC would become another place to
which University faculty could defect.
