Gov. Ford In Race FRANKFORT, Ky. (UPI) Kentucky Gov. Wendell H. Ford ended months of politi-c a 1 speculation yesterday when he announced he would run as a Democrat for the U.

S. Senate seat currently held by Republican Marlow Cook. Dr. Jules Labarthe, Textile Expert, Dies Vital Statistics pire and boy friend of the recently dethroned Miss World, died yesterday when his racer careened over the guard rail on "Barbecue Bend" on the Kyalami Grand Prix track at 160 miles per hour. The dashing, dark-haired Revson, rated America's foremost road racing driver, was killed on impact.

Driver Graham Hill, a teammate, and others struggled to pull Revson from the blazing wreck but the 35-year-old racing star already was dead. Revson was practicing for the South African Grand Prix, another step in his quest to become the first American to win the coveted world racing car drivers championship. For 14 years, he had kept driving despite opposition from his family and the death of his younger brother, Doug, in a race crash in Spain in The engineers who built and maintained the Ford Shadow car in which he died puzzled over what went wrong with the finely tuned piece of machinery that now is a twisted wreck. Track officials said at first the car's steering mechanism but later they reported a suspension fault could have caused accident. VV i t-ncsses said, "The front just seemed to collapse." Revson had been rated among the chief contenders to win the Grand Prix event scheduled March 30, a month later than it normally is held because of the gasoline shortage.

The measure, reported out of committee in the House this week, provides farmers with lower real estate taxes if they do not sell their property to developers for five years. But it permits the owners to sell sections of the land while still paying reduced taxes on the remainder.

Thomas Scott, a Harrisburg attorney representing the Pennsylvania Environmental Council, said the bill docs not assure that land will be kept open. "Five years is too short a period of time, because it fits into the lead time for land developers," Scott sa'id. "What we really are doing is subsidizing developers by reducing the cost of that land." He wants the holding time increased from five to 10 years. In addition, Scott wants to eliminate the parcel selling, except in cases where family members want to built homes on the property. "What good is it to have 100 beautiful acres of land hidden from the road by rows of houses?" he asked.
