University Daily Kansan / Wednesday, June 21, 1989 Nation/World 7 N.Y. Post publishes stolen exam The Associated Press ALBANY, N.Y. — A statewide high school achievement test was canceled Tuesday after the New York Post published the answers on its front page to demonstrate what it is worth the market in intuitably obtained exams. About 80,000 students statewide were to have taken the chemistry exam. State Education Commissioner Thomas Sobol called the Post "beneath contempt" and threatened to sue the newspaper. Sobol said officials were investigating the theft of the chemistry test and others after learning the exams were widely used in New York City, Biology, math, French and global studies tests were also reported to be available, he said. The distribution ring of illegally distributed tests "would appear to be larger than we had ever suspected," said Timothy Gilles, a spokesman for Attorney General Robert Abrams. He said reports indicate the problem involves both public and private schools. The regents tests, given in 17 subjects in late June, are taken by college-bound high school students in New York state and generally account for about a quarter of a student's final grade. Gilles said Abrams was investigating reports the tests and results were being sold for $2,000, although some tests were available for as little as $5 or $10 the night before the exam. The Post, available on the streets for 40 cents, published the 56-question answer key to the chemistry test under the headline "Easy as Pi." Post Editor Jerry Nachman said it took a reporter 15 minutes to find a copy of a test after he was assigned the photo and look into reports they were stolen. Sobol said the department thought it could "contain the damage" to cities that the tests could have on them give elsewhere in the state on Tuesday.

NORTH SAGA CONTINUES: Oliver L. North should go to prison because he broke the law during the Iran-Con scandal, lied about it during his trial and still doesn't show remorse, prosecutors say. slow I remove it. In a sentencing memo likening the fired White House aide to the corrent politicians of Tammany Hall, prosecutors say North "viewed and continues to view himself as being above the law and beyond reproach." The former National Security Council aide faces a possible 10-year term when sentenced Friday by U.S. District Judge Gerhard Gessell for destroying evidence, aiding and abetting the obstruction of Congress and accepting an illegal gratuity. Letting North go without a prison term "would be a statement that 15 years after Watergate, government officials can participate in a brazen attack on a substantial gratuity and still receive only a slap on the wrist," prosecutors told Gesell in their memo Monday. MORE DRUG TESTS: The nation's private employers now have expanded authority to New oil spill plan require drug tests of job applicants, while railroads and airlines have greater power to test those already on the job. The board's decision came Monday, the same day the Supreme Court ruled in a more narrowly defined case that railroads may require tests for workers without first bargaining with unions. The National Labor Relations Board says private employers may decide unilaterally to require drug testing of job applicants, and the union negotiate with unions if they want to test their employees. WASHINGTON — The major oil companies today announced a comprehensive plan for improved prevention and cleanup of catastrophic oil spills such as this spring's Exxon accident in Alaska. The decisions regarding existing workers appeared at odds, but they involved two separate labor laws, the Railway Labor Act that applies only to rail and airline workers, and the National Labor Relations Act which governs other labor contracts. The American Petroleum Institute said its members had approved a program that would create a nationwide spill-resp.response organization capable of dealing quickly with a spill anywhere in U.S. waters. The Associated Press increased-response capability through the Petroleum Industry Response Organization, which would cost the industry $30 million to $55 million a year and an initial investment between $70 million and $100 million. The program would cost more than $250 million in the first five years, said Allen E. Murray, chairman of Mobil Corp. The industry would have The response organization would have regional centers in Seattle, Long Beach, Calif., New Orleans, New York and Norfolk, Va., plus at least 15 "staging areas" where cleanup equipment such as skimmers and chemical dispersants would be stored. Murray said each response center would be capable of handling an oil spill equal in size to the Exxon accident.
