Edward Ken- nedy's announcement yesterday that he will not run for president in 1984 sent Democratic hopefuls scrambling to redraw battle plans for the upcoming campaigns. Kennedy had been considered the front-runner for the Democratic nomination. In his announcement, the Massachusetts senator made it clear that he would neither run nor accept a draft for the 1984 nomination. THE DECISION jleft former Vice President Walter Mondale as the fron- * trunner in an already crowded field of unannounced Democratic candidates. Other liberals, including Rep. Morris Udall of Arizona, may now be en- couraged to step in and bid for the Ken- nedy constituency. Udall told reporters that Kennedy's move "forces everyone, including myself, to re-evaluate what role I might play. "I will talk with my wife, my family, Study says women grads gain higher pay before men WASHINGTON (AP)- Does college pay? A follow-up government survey of people from high school classes of 1972 found that the answer was "yes" for young women, but "not yet" for young men. "After graduating from college, the wage rates of young women quickly catch up to and overtake those of their female high school classmates who did n attend college," said the report released Tuesday by the National Cen- ter for Education Statistics. "In contrast, the wage rates of young men who did not attend college remain higher than their college-educated classmates for at least eight years after high school," it said. THE CENTER has surveyed mem- bers of the Class, of 1972 on five oc- casions, the latest in 1979, when 18,630 were contacted. Andrew Kolstad, the project officer, said in an interview, "It just takes longer than people may See FEMALE, Page 6 my colleagues . . . as to whether I should become an active candidate," Udall said. In Atlanta, former President Carter said "I am sure the other candidates will be relieved" that Kennedy is out of the contest. But "I'm not a candidate and I have no plans to run for office again, and this doesn't change my plans," he said. Mondale, expected to make his can- didacy official after Jan. 1, said in a statement that "every Democrat is in- debted to (Kennedy) for the respon- sibility he has shown in making his in- tentions known at this early date." MONDALE said Kennedy's announce- ment will not change his own plans to "speak out against an administration that is leading usin the wrong direc- tion" and he will "continue to explore the possibility of running for president, with the intention of reaching a final decision in the near future." Sen. John Glenn (D-Ohio), another potential presidential contender, said, "It's always nice when one ahead of you drops out." He added it might be better politically not to be the frontrunner this early in the race. Aides said Kennedy talked with both men by telephone Tuesday night as he informed dozens of acquaintances of his decision. IN BRAZIL, President Reagan told reporters that Kennedy's withdrawal is "a problem for the Democratic Party, and they are welcome to it." Asked if he might follow Kennedy's example and bow out of the 1984 contest himself, Reagan quipped that "I do not believe that there is much of a record of me imitating Teddy Kennedy." Vice President George Bush said at the White House that Kennedy "han- dled that very, very well-a lot of class. And I thought he spoke from the heart. I understand exactly what he was saying. I know Ted Kennedy very well indeed and I obviously respect his decision." Kennedy "Of course," Bush added, "I've got a candidate. He happens to be in South America right now." KENNEDY HAD geared up to run, spending $750,000 on television com- mercials in Massachusetts even though his Senate re-election was assured, beefing up his political and fundraising staff and authorizing aides to solicit ad- vice from campaign veterans about set- ting up another bid for the White House. In addition, two aides disclosed, Ken- nedy had commissioned polls in New Hampshire, Iowa, and Illinois. They said he made his decision not to run without knowing the results of the Mid- western polls. Kennedy referred to none of this in his announcement, saying instead, "I feel that we would have made a strong challenge for the Democratic nomination. I'm personally convinced that it could have been gained." Kennedy said he would continue to See DEMS, Page 2 AP Photo Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.) announced yesterday that he will not seek the Democratic Party's presidential nomination in 1984.

U.S. loans, $ 1.2 billion to Brazil BRASILIA, Brazil (AP)- President Reagan conferred with Brazil's chief executive yesterday about the coun- try's troubled economy, and agreed to make an emergency $1.2-billion loan to help pay urgent foreign bills until longer term financing is arranged. The U.S. loan is intended to permit Brazil to continue buying foreign goods until it negotiates a $5-billion to $6- billion loan from the International Monetary Fund in exchange for belt- tightening measures to stabilize.its economy. "LET'S SAY that it was a nice thing for us to do," said Treasury Secretary Donald Regan. "It was helpful to Brazil and it furthers the relationships bet- ween both countries. "Obviously this is a sign to banks, private lenders, that the United States and Brazil are standing together in this time that Brazil needs help," Regan said. "Everyone knows that Brazil is having problems." In an exchange of toasts after dinner, Reagan and Firgueiredo differed on policies toward troubled Central America. Reagan denounced "counter- feit revolutionaries" in the region, while Figueiredo decried external in- terference and said the guerrillas in El Salvador should be brought into the negotiating process. IN A VERBAL slipup, Reagan toasted the people of Bolivia-instead of Brazil-and then compounded the error by saying, "That's where I'm going." Bolivia is not on the agenda for his Latin American trip. Meanwhile, 1,500 demonstrators screaming "Down with imperialism" r'oared approval in Sao Paulo, 500 miles away, as a life-size effigy of Reagan was burned at a rally protesting his trip to Brazil. Reagan will travel to Sao Paulo today. Along with Mexico and Argentina, Brazil is among the Third World's most heavily indebted nations. The prospect of Brazilian default on an estimated $80 billion in foreign debt, and defaults by other similarly troubled countries, has prompted talk in international banking circles of a global credit crisis. REAGAN ALSO agreed to ease the impact of U.S. sugar quotas for Brazil, the world's largest sugar producer. In Washington, an Agriculture Depar- tment official said the proclamation covers imports from all sugar- producing countries, and was chiefly intended to help put idle sugar refinery capacity to work in the United States.

By GLEN YOUNG Unifying the millions of black teachers across the country is very im- portant to Charles Moody. It's so im- portant to the University education professor that in 1968 he started an organization that was to become the National Association of Black School Educators, one of the most influential teaching groups in the country. For that accomplishment the NABSE honored Moody last week in Memphis, Tenn. at the association's tenth annual conference. Although Moody, 50, was humble about the special award given him, he was anything but quiet about the problems facing black teachers in America. MOODY SAID the idea for the organization - originally called the National Association of Black School Superintendents - came to him when he was superintendent of schools in Harvey, Ill. "I began to wonder about other black superintendents and whether their experiences were the same as mine,' Moody said. "At that 'Black students don't get formal or infor- mal mentors like white students do. You have to be competent, but it also helps to have someone open doors for you.' -Charles Moody, .University education professor for everyone to get comfortable about talking with one another about these types of things." The organization met a few more times in various cities, and in 1973 decided to expand their scope and renamed themselves the NABSE. "NABSE gives a sense of unity to black educators," Moody said, "and this in turn makes its way to black students." BLACK students, although many times as competent or more competent than their white counterparts, are not given the same job opportunities upon completion of their formal schooling, Moody said. "Black students don't get formal or informal mentors like white students do. You have to be competent, but it also helps to have someone open doors for you." In his research overthe years, Moody said he has found that black superin- tendents are more likely to inherit school districts that are "no longer attractive to aspiring white superinten- See UNIVERSITY, Page 6 t l_ Conservation saves 'U' $3.8 million point, I began to try to identify other black superintendents around the coun- try." Moody said it was two years later that he received a call from Harland Lewis, who at the time was in charge of the grant program for a national research corporation. Lewis asked Moody to New York to discuss the for- mation of a network by which black superintendents could meet and discuss black concerns. While in New York, Moody told Lewis he didn't want money to travel to see different superintendents or to send out questionnaires. Instead, he wanted to set up meetings for those interested so they could get together and discuss their problems. They agreed to set up the first such meeting in Chicago that year. THE MEETING in Chicago turned out to be a success, Moody said, but he added, "it really took a couple of days By HALLE CZECHOWSKI University efforts to trim the fat in utility bills paid off last year to the tune of nearly $4 million, according to a report by the University General Fund Energy Management Programs. Conservation measures targeting the residence halls and the Dental Building made energy bills $3.8 million lower than they would otherwise have been during the 1981-82 school year, the report said. "WHILE reduction in energy use is important, it is not the intent of the (Energy Management) department to do so at the sacrifice of safety, comfort, or work performance," stated the report, compiled by Utilities Engineer Gregory Metz. "These programs are intended to provide long term solutions, not short term energy savings." Since the 1972-73 academic year, when the University started its conser- vation program with a matching grant of $500,000 from the Department of Energy, it has avoided paying $19.8 million, according to Metz. Last year's projects were divided into two groups, "quick fixes" and more comprehensive - also more expensive - energy conservation measures. The Housing Division alone avoided $1 million in energy bills last year, See CONSERVATION, Page 6 TODAY A marriage made in the heavens F E.T. had been around he would have made a great ring I bearer.
