The Right to Life organization endorsed Buel, but the abortion rights action league reported he answered "yes" to their key questions. Buel ran unsuccessfully for state representative in 1988. "I was pro-life in 1988 and I am pro-life this year," Buel declares.

Education. Both candidates oppose voucher plans that would allow public money to follow students, to schools of their parents' choice, whether they be public, private or parochial. "I do not believe public tax dollars should go to private or parochial schools," Brown says. Day Care. Both candidates favor state regulation of church-run day care centers for safety.

Brown says the state should carefully avoid making regulations so expensive that they price people out of day care. Brown is an insurance agent and has accepted about $1,300 in cam- paign contribution from industry sources. Buel says Brown would not be able to fairly consider insurance, issues. Brown says she offers health insurance only as a service to customers and is distressed when she tells people how expensive it is.

Three Motorists Aid Injured Bicycle Rider OBITUARIES Okla Alberta Robinson, 76; Wentzvillei At least three motorists came to the aid of a bicyclist found unconscious and bleeding last weekend at the side of a road, said Sgt. John Puzzo, acting chief for the Cottleville Police Department. Puzzo said that, at first, motorists believed the man had been struck by a car. When police arrived, several motorists were gathered around him, trying to help. On further examination, it appeared that the bicycle tire had caught in gravel on the shoulder and the cyclist "lost it," Puzzo said.

After he regained consciousness, the cyclist, John Marut, 39, of St. Peters, could not remember what had happened, Puzzo said. The accident occurred about 4:30 p.m. Saturday near the intersection of Mid-Rivers Drive and St. Peters Cottleville Road.

Marut suffered a deep cut on his face. He had been wearing a helmet. Paramedics from the St. Charles County Ambulance District took Marut to St. Joseph Health Center in St.

PAC money should be channeled to the political parties.

"Let the parties distribute the money," Hardy said, and make them accountable for their candidates'actions. Set spending limits on political campaigns. "It's really out of hand," Hardy said. at the University of Missouri in Columbia. He said he is running his campaign on contributions totaling about $110,000.

He said he is relying heavily on volunteers to work in his campaign. Many of the volunteers, he said, are students who have attended his political science classes at the university over the past 14 years. Hardy released this week the results of a study of Volkmer's campaign finance reports since 1976. The reports show that: Volkmer relied increasingly on PAC contributions during his tenure in Congress. In the 1976 campaign, 25.7 percent of Volkmer's campaign contributions came from PACs.

That figure has grown to 69.3 percent during the current campaign. 1 Volkmer received $87,208 from PACs last year, a non-election year. Hardy asks, "What do the special in terest PACs hope to buy with these contributions since no election is underway?" Of the PAC money received last year, 53.3 percent came from special interest groups in the Washington, D.C., area. The report shows that only 17.1 percent of the contributions came from PACs with Missouri addresses. Hardy asserted, "If money talks, then the loudest voices during the 1991 session of Congress were the special interest PACs in the nation's capital, not groups in Harold L.

Volkmer's home state." Hardy makes these proposals to control PAC contributions: Ban PAC contributions while Congress is in session. He said it is hard to prove a link between a contribution and the way a member of Congress votes, but he suspects that such a link exists. Hardy said that William Proxmire, a former senator from Wisconsin, had observed that if a contri- From page one tern," Hardy said. Hardy asserted, "I won't take PAC money." His campaign motto is "No Strings Attached." Hardy charged that PAC money adds to the nation's budget deficit "because recipients can't say no to special interests." Further, Hardy said that members of Congress who rely on large contributions from PACs become less accountable to their own political parties, and thus the voters. "PAC money erodes the strength of the two-party system," he said.
