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 Monckton with a decisive 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 said. "We're obviously the product of an awful lot of thinks."
"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 no other 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 weeks 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, 5,238 percent; civil rights activist Jesse Jackson, or 6 percent; Sen Ernest Hollings, 32 percent; Sen Alan Cranton, 2,048 or 2 per former Sen. Rubin Askew of Florida, 9.1 percent.
If those percentages hold up, Hart will win delegates to the Democratic National Conference.

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.
College sex bias allowed by court despite funding
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 permit school program and faculty faculty academic activities; to federal multidiscrimination guidelines.
By United Press International
Lawmakers immediately announced plans to introduce legislation broadening the application of federal laws barring sex discrimination.
in a 4-1 vote last night, the Lawrence City Commission gave the go-ahead for St. Lawrence Catholic Center officials to begin work on a new school building at Foster High School, a student center at Crescent and Engola roads.
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.
But John Nitcher, attorney for the Crescent-Engel Neighborhood Association, said last night that the association was considering filing an appeal with the Douglas County District Court to see whether the commission's approval of the expansion violated city codes. If the com-

explained the decision. 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.
Only Justices 'Thurgood Marshall and William Brennan said 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.

Giant leap Every 4 years, Annette Criqui celebrates her real birthday
By CHRIS BARBER Staff Reporter
KU sophomore will celebrate her fifth birthday tomorrow
No, she is not a whiz-kid who could solve advanced calculus, write poetry and quote Shakespeare at age two.
Annette Criqui, Prairie Village sophomore, is actually 19, but because she was born on Leap Year Day, Feb 29, she was on real birth day only every four years.
However, that doesn't mean Criquiorges traditional birthday festivities on Saturday.
'My family and I just celebrate my birthday on Feb. 28 on nonleap years,' she says.
But when Criqui's real birthday comes around, her family always has a much bigger celebration, with, of course, more gifts.
"It's nice to have your own day after four years," she said.
Criqui said she would not have a big Leap Year Party this year, partly because it would be her first real birthday away from home.
birthday today at the home.
Criqui said she had already celebrated her birthday with her family, and that she wasn't planning anything special.
Although she does receive extra attention for her unusual birthdate, being a Leap Year baby also has its disadvantages.
For example, she said, after having celebrated her birthday on Feb. 28 for most of her life, she had to wait an extra day so she could she get her driver's license.
Having an unusual birthday is not so unusual in her family, Criqui's younger brother was born on George Wash-ton and was aunt to his sisters was born on New Year's Eve.
Cripu came very close to having her real birthday on the relatively unannounced day of her first birth.

baby born in the greater Kansas City area on Fri. 29.194 at 12:04 a.m.
Being born on Leap Year Day puts Criqui in a select group. In 1980, 112 babies were born on Leap Year Day, according to the Kansas Bureau of Vital Statistics in Topeka. 40,686 babies were born that year.
Criqui said that belonging to such a select group wasn't all that exciting and that her real birthday was just like any other person's birthday — except that it won't come around for another four years.
