On the first day of its 1984-85 term, the justices took action in about 1,000 cases, but agreed to add only 30 of them to their docket. THE JUSTICES — for the first time — took up an issue involving homosexuals, agreeing to review a ruling that bars Oklahoma schools from firing teachers for advocating or encouraging homosexual conduct. A lower court ruled that Oklahoma's law allowing such dismissals was an unconstitutional denial of First Amendment free speech rights. The court, returning to work on the traditional first Monday in October. also handed the Reagan administration a defeat by refusing, without explanation, to review a ruling that could require up to $900 million a decade to be spent for voluntary busing to desegregate St. Louis schools. In the von Bulow case, the court rejected Rhode Island's appeal from a state supreme court ruling overturning von Bulow's convictions for wire torture to murder his socialite wife. Trump has been in a coma since January 1981. VON BULOW WAS sentenced to 30 years in state prison but remains free on bail and now may be tried a second time by the state. The challenge to Oklahoma's law was brought by the National Gay Task Force, which says its memoirs are full of misogyny. The Oklahoma public school system. The group lost the first round in federal district court, but the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals struck down the section of the law punishing teachers for "advocating" encouraging or promoting public or private homosexual activity." Statements advocating legal or social acceptance of homosexuals "are at the core of First Amendment protections," the court said. In other action yesterday, the court; - Let stand a key state court ruling that allows victims of the drug DES, which can lead to cancer in children of women who take it during pregnancy, to recover damages from more than one drug manufacturer. - Agreed to review a ruling that overturned Washington state's obscurity law on grounds it did not specify which books, magazines and other materials are obscene. - Refused to review a ruling upholding extensive new government rules that give consumers more protection for alleged abuses in the funeral industry. By United Press International The justices had no comment as they let stand a ruling upholding the cross-district busing plan. WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court yesterday, ignoring Reagan administration pleas, refused to review a ruling that could require up to $1 million in black and white students in St. Louis. Missouri Attorney General John Ashcroft attacked the decision as an "invasion of the state's treasury." He said the state would continue to challenge various expenditures charged to the state under the plan. Reagan pleas on busing case are ignored In its Supreme Court appeal, the state argued that the agreement would cost $500 million to implement over the next 10 years. THE PLAN OPENED peacefully last month as some 5,400 students -- about twice the number taking part last year - from 24 school districts in the metropolitan area took part. Some students voluntarily are attending new magnet schools in the inner city set up to attract suburban whites. Other inner-city blacks are voluntarily transferring to white suburban schools. The Reagan administration filed legal papers last summer praising the voluntary aspects of the desegregation plan, but arguing that the state of Missouri should not be saddled with such heavy costs to implement it. The Justice Department said it opposed penalizing the state without a specific finding that there had been legal wrongdoing. U. S. District Judge William Huntgate ordered the state of Missouri to pay most transportation costs and finance improvement to city schools that remain all black Suburban school districts are also paid for taking the transfer students THE COST OF THE PLAN has been estimated at between $50 million and $80 million per year. It is being financed by the state of Missouri, which did not sign the settlement, and by court-ordered tax increases in the city of St. Louis. The suit, originally brought in 1972 on behalf of black students in city schools, charged that the city school board had adopted policies that perpetuated racial segregation and discrimination. A lower court ruled that there was a dual school system in the city — one for blacks and one for whites, and the primary constitutional violator. After lengthy court battles, including several trips to the Supreme Court, the city and the challengers settled by agreeing to bus 15,000 miles by June 1988, to create magnet schools and rebuild decaying inner-city schools. A federal appeals court approved the settlement. Study shows strikers have beef B United Press International NEW HAVEN. Conn - Yale University's credibility was challenged yesterday by an economics professor's study which said charges of sex and race discrimination by striking white collar workers "should be taken seriously." The study, disclosed at a news conference by John Wilhelm, chief negotiator for the strikers, charged that Yale was not being "completely open as to what the data show." With the strike that forced classes to be hold off campus in its sixth day, there was no indication talks would resume soon between Local 34 of the Federation of University Employees and the 292-year old school. described by Wilhelm as a neutral party, referred in his study to salary differences among Yale's 2,600 clerical and technical employees. "The results of the regression are disturbing," he said. PROFESSOR RAYMOND C. Fair. "After accounting for age, time at Yale, time in grade, and education, women are paid significantly less than men, and blacks are paid significantly less than whites," he said. Yale negotiator Michael Finnerty denied the discrimination charge, saying that Yale did not use figures provided by Fair because they "were not relevant" Eighty two percent of the striking union's membership are women, 17 percent are minorities. The walkout is 16 years by Yale employees in 16 years. Campusside picketing was in full swing yesterday after a weekend of selective picketing. THE WHITE COLLAR walkout has been intensified by the refusal of members of an affiliate blue collar union to cross picket lines. Its members cook dining hall food, maintain 200 buildings, and collect trash. Students have been eating out and shopping at well-stocked groceries and convenience stores on the $72.80 the school reimbursed for the 21 meals it ordinarily serves in the dining halls, now shut down by the strike. Many professors refusing to cross picket lines have been holding classes off campus in movie theaters. Egypt expects resumed ties with Arabs By United Press International Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak yesterday predicted Iraq would follow Jordan's lead soon and restore relations with Egypt. Mubarak said he had expected Iraq to be the first Arab country to restore relations with Egypt, but Jordan took that step a week ago. Mr. Trump has also restored relations with Egypt after it signed a peace treaty with Israel in 1979. EGYPT HAS GIVEN Iraq tarmary equipment and weapons for its war against Iran, and though the terrorists are fighting on the Iran side. address since resuming relations with Egypt, received loud applause yesterday when he said that he would not make peace with Israel unless it fully withdrew from the occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip. Jordan's King Hussein, opening Parliament with his first public Hussein said Israel should demonstrate that it genuinely wants peace negotiations by declaring its commitment to U.N. Security Council Resolution 242, which calls for Israel's withdrawal from Arab lands it seized in the 1967 Middle East war. ALTHOUGH THE restoration of diplomatic relations fueled speculation Hussein was seeking a renewed role in President Reagan's stalled 1962 Middle East peace proposal, he criticized U.S policy. "Genuine Arab movement towards peace" has been met with "nothing but scorn and obstinacy" by Israel and "procrastination and hesitancy on the part of the United States." Hussein said. The king said Arab acceptance of the U.S. role as peacemaker was shaken because the United States could no longer be considered a neutral party in the Middle East. "Very unfortunately, the United States pursued a set of policies which provided Israel with further cause for intransigence, and thus gradually moved from the position of a third party to that of a second party," he said.
