Hart is victorious in N.H. primary
By United Press International
CONCORD, N.H. — Gary Hart, promising to lead "the crusade for this country's future," stunned Democratic front-runner Walter Mondale yesterday with a dramatic upset victory in the New Hampshire primary.
The surprise victory shifts the fragile momentum of presidential politics to the Colorado senator's camp, and throws a serious monkeywrench into what has been an unimpeded drive by Mondale for the Democratic presidential nomination.
The results buried most of the crowded field, leaving three realistic contenders — Monday, Hart and Sen. John Glenn of Ohio, who finished third.
"This is a massive victory," an elated Hart was obviously the product of an awful lot of things.
"I'm not prepared at this moment to claim the position of front-runner, but I know one thing — we've buried the label 'dark horse,'" Hart said. "What we have is something other no campaign or candidate has, that is the cause and the crusade for this country's future."
Mondale admitted defeat to a mob of supporters, telling them that "I won one, and lost one," referring to his victory last week in the Iowa caucuses. He predicted that in the primaries coming up in the next three wee would defeat Hart.
With 95 percent of the total vote report Hart had 37,207 votes or 41 percent; Mon 26,079 or 28 percent; Glenn, 11,223 or 12 per former Sen. George McGovern, 5,358 percent; civil rights activist Jesse Jackson 363 percent; Senator Robert Jackson 363 percent; Sen. Alan Cranston, 2,043 or 2 and former Gov. Rebin Askew of Florida, 91 percent.
If those percentages hold up, Hart will win delegates to the Democratic National Conference.

College sex bias allowed by court despite funding
By United Press International
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court refused in a unanimous ruling yesterday to ban sex discrimination from all programs that a college offers merely because its students receive federal financial aid.
The decision, a setback for women's rights advocates, bars sex discrimination in financial aid programs but holds that federal financial aid to students does not subject school programs to academic activity, faculty training or academic activities — to federal misdiscrimination guidelines.
Lawmakers immediately announced plans to introduce legislation broadening the application of federal laws barring sex discrimination.
Women's groups argued that a section of the Education Amendments of 1972, which prohibited sex discrimination "in any education program or any activity receiving federal financial assistance," should apply to institutions whose students receive federal aid. They said federal aid to students constituted indirect aid to the college.
The court rejected that argument, finding that the protections against discrimination could be applied to student aid programs at schools whose students got federal financial help, but that the sex discrimination rules could not be imposed on other programs at such institutions.
Only Justices Thurgood Marshall and William Brennan sided with women's groups' arguments for a wider application of the discrimination ban. But they went along with the final court decision even though they explained their views separately.
The court's decision came in the case of Grove City College, a Presbyterian-affiliated school outside Pittsburgh that refused to sign an anti-discrimination pledge requested by federal education officials. The school said signing the agreement would jeopardize its independence.
