JORDAN Staff Writer Seven men are jockeying for the Republican Party 1988 presidential nomination, according to a spokes man for the National Republican Committee. Sen. Robert Dole, R-Kan., Rep. Jack Kemp, R-N.Y., the Rev. Pat Robertson, President Reagan's former Secretary of State Alexander Haig, former Delaware governor Pete du Pont, Vice President George Bush and former senator Paul Laxalt of Nevada will battle for a spot on the presidential ticket until the final vote at the Republican convention in March. Of the seven, only du Pont, Haig and Kemp have officially declared campaigns. Du Pont declared his candidacy September 16, 1986, said his press secretary Ann Brackbill. She said du Pont has raised $1.5 million toward his campaign. Du Pont is the only candidate to have developed a complete platform, Brackbill said. His platform calls for changing the welfare system to a form of man datory workfare system, allowing for a financial services program in the Proposed By MITRA LOTFI Staff Writer County health directors in North Carolina may be able to isolate, quarantine or jail some AIDS patients or carriers of the AIDS virus if a proposed bill becomes law. The bill, introduced April 6 in the N.C. House of Representatives by ,Rep. Charles Cromer. R-Davidson, would go into effect Feb. 1, 1988, if passed. Dr. Ronald Levine, state health director and chairman of a state task force on Acquired Immune Defi ciency Syndrome, said the bill would update a law regarding people who are public health risks. Under this law, county health .directors may indict people with other communicable diseases, such as syphilis and tuberculosis, if they are a threat to public health. The bill would extend indictment authority to the state health director, and the bill would include AIDS carriers as a public health risk, even 1 IP The pregnancy (3 J eyes only.

Haig officially began his drive for the White House on March 24, said his press secretary Audrey Shay. Despite trailing in early polls, Shay said Haig's following is more loyal and dedicated than that of the other candidates. Shay said Haig offers the United States proven leadership, having worked with seven presidents over the past several decades. Kemp kicked off his campaign April 6, a member of his press staff said. Kemp will focus his campaign on ten issues: job creation and economic growth, free and fair trade, peace through strength, protection of senior citizens' benefits, the sanctity of life, fighting for freedom, democracy and human rights, tra ditional family values, federal spend ing restraint, the right to work and winning the war on poverty. The other four have declared their intentions to run but have not yet made any official announcements, bill would if they don't have it themselves. The bill is aimed at people with communicable diseases who refuse preliminary requests to curb their activities, Levine said. "The bill says the measures (iso lation, quarantine or jail) may not be used until all less restrictive ones have been exhausted and are unsuc cessful." he said. The bill defines quarantine and isolation to apply to freedom of action, not just freedom of movement. Health directors, under the bill, would have the right to tell a prostitute carrying the AIDS virus to cease sexual activity. But the prostitute would not be required to stay at home, which is what a quarantine usually requires. Levine said if the bill passes it would be used primarily as a threat. "Hopefully, it would never have to be used," he said. "But when all else fails, we would have this ability to seek an indictment." Hfl test for your after a f easy sure. 967-1621 call for appt.
