According to Herseth, the family option section of the law that wasn't referred should be put on hold, awaiting the voters' decision next year on the main piece of family option legislation. The people of South Dakota have no choice but to sue Janklow and his administration to protect the constitutional power of public referendum, Herseth said. "This administration is callously disregarding the rights of those people who legally circulated and filed petitions to refer this bill to a vote of the people and is once again taking the attitude of 'make my day, sue me," if you don't like what the state is doing," he said. Such an attitude will do nothing but cause hard feelings and create court costs for local school districts and the state, said Herseth, a Houghton farmer.

Record number of leaders expected for General Assembly UNITED NATIONS (AP) A record number of heads of state and government leaders, including President Reagan, will attend the 40th anniversary session of the General Assembly opening Tuesday.

"I'm doing great," Jordan said Saturday, according to Judy Smith, a hospital spokeswoman.

Reagan says presidents should be allowed to serve third term WASHINGTON (AP) President Reagan told a group of state legislators he believes the Constitution should be changed to permit presidents to serve more than two terms, White House spokesman Larry Speakes said Saturday.

Speakes said the question was raised by a long-time Reagan supporter at a private meeting with legislators on Thursday in Tampa, where the president had just given a speech. He said Reagan responded "in a light-hearted manner" but went on to say in a more- serious vein that, while such an amendment would not apply to him, he believed that "the people ought to have a right to decide who their leadership would be." Speakes said the question was couched to Reagan in terms of whether he felt handicapped by being considered a "lame duck" in his second term "and he was indicating that he was going to be an active president." The 22nd Amendment to the Constitution, ratified in 1951, limits presidents to two elected terms and provides that no person who has filled more than two years of an unexpired term shall be elected more than once. Bottles of wine tainted with sulphuric acid MUNICH, West Germany (AP) Bavarian authorities have issued a public warning after hazardous amounts of sulphuric acid were found in two bottles of Chianti wine from Italy.

A statement by the ministry said the amount of acid detected could cause stomach or throat damage. Earlier this summer, West Germany authorities Impounded large amounts of Austrian wine tainted with a potentially lethal chemical used in making automobile antifreeze.

ABERDEEN (AP) Citizens should sue Gov. Bill Janklow if he lets the state pay tuition for students using the family option plan this year, according to state Rep. Lars Herseth, a Democratic candidate for governor. The governor is "callously disregarding" the 19,000 people who signed referendum petitions to force the main family option law to a public vote in November 1986, Herseth said in a prepared statement. Two students, one each from Wood and Oldham high schools, are using the family option law to transfer this fall to larger, neighboring schools.

James Hansen, secretary of Education and Cultural Affairs, said he will follow an education funding bill passed in the 1985 Legislature that makes reference to family option, and pay tuition of $18 per school day. The family option was designed to allows students from the state's smallest high schools to attend school in larger districts, with the state paying tuition and parents paying transportation. Janklow said he was not aware Hansen would implement the law. The state won't pay tuition for any students who transfered after school started, he said. "I've never ever uttered a public word encouraging people to transfer schools," the governor said.

The public referendum vote is set for another law one that outlines family option in detail. An aide to Janklow, Jim Soyer, said both laws could have been referred to a vote, but the people circulating the referendum petitions chose not to. "Does he (Herseth) want the governor not to enforce the law, just because a similar law was Soyer asked. "Ask him (Herseth) that question. If he were governor, would he choose not to enforce the law?" Janklow, a Republican, said if Herseth didn't like the fami option.
