WASHINGTON (AP)- Ronald Reagan isn't the first president to dangle the prospect of tuition tax credits before Catholic educators and parents of children in private schools. But his plan to revive that campaign promise already is clouded by a record budget deficit and constitutional issues that remain sticky as ever. THE PRESIDENT plans to unveil his plan tomorrow in a speech to the National Catholic Education Association in Chicago. White House aides say Reagan will ask for tax credits of up to $500 for parents of the nation's 5 million private school studen- ts. The plan will be phased in over three years, climbing to a maximum of $500, and families with income over a certain level-perhaps $50,000-would be ineligible, according to sources who asked not to be identified. The association Reagan will address represents 10,000 Roman Catholic schools with 3.5 million students. Ten years ago, President Richard Nixon told the same group he was "irrevocably committed" to find ways to help nonpublic schools. "WE ARE all aware of the extra dif- ficulties which tax measures encounter in Congress any time, but particularly in an election year. . ." Nixon said at the time. Nothing came of Nixon's promise. Two Democrats who lost presidential races, Hubert Humphrey and George McGovern, backed tuition tax credits. Candidate Jimmy Carter declared on Oct. 19, 1976: "I am firmly committed to finding constitutionally acceptable methods of providing aid to parents whose children attend parochial schools." But as president, Carter at- tacked tuition tax credits as "costly and unconstitutional" and used the threat of a veto to keep Congress from enacting a tax credit plan in 1978. CANDIDATE Reagan told a rally in Paterson, N.J., a heavily Catholic city, last year that he would "wholehear- tedly support enactment of a tuition tax credit bill as soon as it is fiscally possible." Reagan did not include tuition tax credits in his huge tax cut legislation last year, but assured Catholic school administrators in a message Oct. 18 he was still committed to it. But lawmakers may have a hard time seeing their way clear to sanction any new drain on the Treasury. The White House and Congress are struggling to find ways to raise taxes and cut spen- ding in order to close a fiscal 1983 deficit estimated at $101.9 billion-even supposing Reagan gets all the cuts he wants. SEN. BOB DOLE (R-Kan.), chair- man of the Senate Finance Committee, has expressed doubt about whether Congress could back a tuition tax credit this year. Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan (D- N.Y.), a leading champion of tuition tax credits, said yesterday: "The ad= ministration has waited so long to make its intentions known, it may prove to be impossible for this Congress to deal with this issue in the time remaining." Moynihan is co-sponsor of a pending bill to give parents a credit of up to $250 to cover half the cost of tuition for the 1983 school year and $500 afterwards at the elementary, secondary and college level. THE BILL would cost the Treasury $2.7 billion in fiscal 1983 and $6.3 billion in 1985, according to the Congressional Budget Office. Reagan is not planning to ask for tax credits at the college level, according to the White House sources. The Congressional Budget Office estimates that a $250 tax credit for elementary and secondary tuition would cost $1.3 billion and a $500 credit $1.9 billion in the first year, assuming no growth in private school enrollments. Reagan's controversial stance on tax breaks for schools that discriminate also may cloud his effort to seek a tuition tax credit. In January, the ad- ministration said it would no longer seek to deny tax-exempt status to schools that discriminate by race, edpse presents OSCA R PETERSON RESCHEDULED TONIGHT HILL AUDITORIUM, 8:00 P.M.

IN BRIEF Compiled from Associated Press and United Press International reports Nuns' suit to regain jobs rejected EXETER, N.H. - A judge yesterday upheld the firing of four Roman Catholic nuns from teaching jobs at a parochial school, rejecting what may be the first suit ever brought by nuns against their bishop. The four nuns, employed as teachers at the Sacred Heart School in Ham- ptonn sued Bishop Odore Gendron of the Manchester Roman Catholic Diocese after he refused to renew their teaching contracts. The church said the nuns were "uncooperative and cliquish." The four members of the Sisters of Merey Order-Sisters Honora Rear- donn Justine Colliton, Catherine Colliton and Mary Rita Furlong-said they were never told specifically why they were being dismissed. Lawyers for Bishop Odore Gendron argued that the courts should not review the issue beciause it violated the separation of church and state. But Superior Court Judge Joseph Nadeau ruled it was possible for the courts to examine the issue without violating the constitutional guarantee and rejected the nuns' suit. Boy killed in Gaza Strip riot JERUSALEM- Israeli troops shot and killed an 8-year-old boy yesterday and wounded 17 other Palestinians rioting over the bloody attack on Islam's sacred Dome of the Rock. Ten other Arabs and four soldiers were hit by stones. In the Jerusalem magistrate's court, Judge Haman Shelah ordered Alan Harry Goodman, an American Jewish immigrant, held for 15 days to allow police to investigate his part in an attack at the Dome of the Rock. The military command said hundreds of Palestinians tried to storm a small army encampment near Jabaliya refugee camp in the occupied Gaza Strip, and 21 people were hit-11 by army bullets and 10 by stones flung by fellow rioters. An 8-year-old boy, Sohail Abdelfadah Ghabin, bled to death of a bullet wound when an ambulance carrying him to a hospital was blocked by a mob, a military spokesman said. Teen charged in mass murder PORT HURON- A 16-year-old boy wascharged with five counts of first- degree murder yesterday in the slayings of a woman and her four adopted children-the third mass murder in Michigan in less than two months. St. Clair County Prosecutor Robert Cleland also said he filed a petition with the probate court seeking to have the suspect-a friend of one of the vic- tims-tried as an adult in circuit court. Under Michigan law, suspects under 17 can be tried as adults only after proceedings in probate or juvenile court. If tried as an adult and convicted, the boy-a junior at Yale High School- would face a mandatory sentence of life in prison without parole. The youth is accused of killing Elizabeth Giuliani, 50, and her children, Eric, 19, Kathleen, 16, Cynthia, 13, and Dean, 9, at their ranch-style home south of Yale last Wednesday. Mrs. Giuliani's husband, Richard, 48, was away at work. 21 states record double-digit February. unemployment rates WASHINGTON- Unemployment in 21 states reached double-digit rates in February, according to preliminary figures released yesterday by the Labor Department. In the District of Columbia, the hub of federal government long considered immune from the worst rigors of recession, unemployment also reached 10 percent, the Bureau of Labor Statistics said. r Michigan, where the slumping auto industry has forced tens of thousands of layoffs, continued to have the highest unemployment rate of any of the 50 states-16.1 percent in February, not adjusted. The bureau said the number of states with unemployment at 10 percent or more was the highest for any February since it began compiling state-y- state records.in 1970. In February 1981, nine states showed that much unem ployment or more. Unlike the national jobless figures, the state-by-state statistics are not ad- justed to take into account seasonal factors, such asweather and school closings. --1 a 6 I 'U'gives help to roommates Tickets on sale CTC outlets.

Counselors will help work on contracts for paying bills, for overnight guests, and for courtesy guidelines. Students who are now planning how their households will run next year should be careful of their expectations, Holland said. Smoking, drugs, and alcohol are usually not as much of a problem because they have been discussed, she said. LESS TANGIBLE yet more per- vasive differences, such as basically different styles of living, can lead to the more major conflicts. Rick Frantz, a recent graduate of the School of Engineering ran into problems that went all the way to small claims court. Two years ago, he lived in an apartment with Glenn, Cliff, and Tony. "Tony (not his real name) had very poor impulse control," Frantz ex- plained. "My other two roommates watched TV all the time. He wanted to be pre-med, and he wanted to study in the apartment, but he ended up wat- ching TV all the time. And he-liked to drink scotch." AS A RESULT, according to Frantz, Tony did not accomplish a great deal academically. "I think he passed one course that semester," he said. "What he needed was to find a place to study. Now, normally, people would go to the library to study, but no, he wanted to study in the apartment." Tony moved out during winter break without telling his roommates. After mid- January, Frantz explained, the others became worried. When he called Tony's parents, they "said something about the atmosphere not being con- ducive to studying. We had expected something like that." Because it was a bad time of the year to sublet, the three remaining room- mates went to the University's Student Legal Services (SLS) for help. Lear- ning that SLS cannot handle conflicts between students, they took the case to small claims court, where they lost. ALTHOUGH dormitory problems are usually less serious, there are some ex- ceptions. Sue (not her real name) lived in a residence hall with a roommate who had her boyfriend over in the room for 10 of the first 15 days of the semester. Of those nights, She was kicked out of the room for six. When dorm conflicts escalate, roommates may ask for a "bed-for- bed" switch with someone else in the dormitory, at a $5 charge - not too much trouble for a happier existence. Nor is life in fraternities and sororities without problems. In one case, three women living in a sorority described the situation as "like being in a war together." The women, who asked not to be named, said they were treated as second class citizens and were asked to eat at a separate table in the sorority. "THEY (THE other sorority mem- bers) were a group of insecure girls who tried to feel others were beneath them," one of the women said. One of the women said that living there made her physically ill, and she terminated her lease with the help of a doctor's let- ter. "You have to be sensitive" in any living situation, according to University senior Meg (not her real name). One of the biggest problems, she said, is "not checking out the people you'll be,living with carefully enough." Courtesy is also* necessary for a situation to work out, according to Meg, who has lived in large groups twice. "You can't talk for hours on the phone when you live with seven people." Many people panic about where they will be living during the following year. and rush into a situation without thinking, she said. She said she agrees with Mediation Service counselors that many people must give careful con- sideration to how many people they will be living with, who they will be living with, what their responsibilities will be, and what the cost will be. 18 8 PM Rooted in a reality from which it draws its themes, the cuban TEATRO NUEVO establishes a close relationship with its audi- ence, reflects the transformations that have taken place in the country and portrays the history, habits, values and wishes of the community for which it works.
