CORNELL Associated Press Writer NEW ORLEANS Defeated Southern Baptist moderates on Wednesday weighed an uncertain, perhaps separate future as a fundamentalist-dominated convention undercut a longtime religious-liberty agency in the nation's capital. Unless the denomination's ruling bloc becomes more inclusive and "accepts the rest of us brothers and sisters," some are going to leave, said the Rev. Daniel Vestal, defeated moderate candidate for the denomination's Christian Life Commission, a moral concerns agency also given religious-liberty duties. In the mix, some of that function also was assigned to another slightly funded agency, the Public Affairs Committee, thus defusing that subject into three, perhaps sometimes scrambled, voices.

However, the Rev. James Dunn, head of the long-experienced but sharply defunded inter-Baptist agency said it would keep up its defense of church-state separation and against "government intrusion into religion." "We won't downgade our reli Similar break-away sentiments came from others in that camp, which charges exclusion from the vast ranks of denominational staffing on the basis of increased screening about beliefs. In visits with officials of the 14.9-million-member denomination, the new fundamentalist-backed president, the Rev. Morris Chapman, has pledged to uphold those additionally specified "parameters" of belief. Fundamentalists have held the top office for 12 years, its appointive powers establishing control of agencies and institutions of the country's largest Protestant body.

at Massed in Louisiana's Super-dome, the convention slashed support of the Washington-based Baptist Joint Committee on Public Affairs, the influential religious liberty lobby of nine Baptist groups for 50 years. Fundamentalist critics have assailed it for opposing public school prayers and for not fighting abortion. Under the changed arrangements, "they'll laugh us off Capitol Hill," said the Rev. Ron Sisk, of Tiburon, Calif. The convention cut out 87 percent of its support to the agency $346,796 shifting that sum to the $1.3 million budget of the moutiEied tion," said Jeff Erdel, the publicist for the show.

Mr. Campbell and two other members of the band were arrested Sunday following a live show at a Florida club. While the judge has called the Crew's album obscene, Mr. Campbell and his supporters claim First Amendment protection and suggest they are victims of racism. "A white man can say anything.

How about Dice Clay?" Mr. Campbell asked of comedian Andrew Dice Clay, whose material has been criticized for slurs against women and gays. Sheriff Navarro denied the racism charges, as he has done repeatedly since the arrests. "I'm not after anybody because of race," he said. Mr.

Campbell didn't limit his anger to Geraldo Rivera's show; he brought a bit along for Phil, too. Mr. Campbell became involved in a shouting match with John Thompson, a Coral Gables, lawyer who helped lead the fight against 2 Live Crew. "He's going to be disbarred because he's crazy. Why'd you single us out, man? Why don't you talk about other groups, man?" Mr.

Campbell shouted at Mr. Thompson. The federal agency will present a proposal this summer to officials from both states, Paul Tanner, area manager for the Bureau of Land Management's Oklahoma City office, said this week. Mr. Tanner predicts the boundary will be fixed at a permanent spot on the Texas side of the river.

If that happens, Oklahoma stands to gain acreage and increase its tax base, he said. The stretch is in the central part of the boundary and runs in Texas from about Byers to Oklaunion. During the 1960s, he also worked on the design of Madison Square Garden. He was structural engineer of the Guggenheim Bandshell, completed in 1969 at New York's Lincoln Center, and for Toronto City Hall, completed in 1965. Mr.

Severud retired from the firm in 1973 and moved to Miami in 1985. In addition to Ms. Susich, survivors include daughter Laila Shalkosky of New York and a son, Fred of Rockaway, N.J. Services will foe held Saturday at the Perrine Jehovah's Witnesses Kingdom Hall south of Miami. defense By LARRY McSHANE Associated Press Writer NEW YORK They're forbidden in Florida and taboo in Texas, but the leader of the 2 Crew was welcomed Wednesday for a fiery, foul-mouthed defense of their salacious million-selling album "As Nasty As They Wanna Be." Luther Campbell, the front man for the Florida band, first went on the offensive during a taping of the "Geraldo" show.

The rapper cursed at the sheriff who arrested him and questioned the credentials of the sheriffs legal adviser. "He hasn't given more to the black community than I have," Mr. Campbell said of the adviser, then ripped into Broward County Sheriff Nick Navarro, who was also on the show. He then headed from the Times Square taping to Rockefeller Center for a live bit on the syndicated "Donahue" show, where he was joined by previously censored performers Jello Bi-afra and Wendy O. Williams.

"I'm a little sick of the system," said Ms. Williams, who once wore only electrical tape above her waist at a show. "What are we going to do next? What's White Chapel E. John Lowe Ml-1901 43 South Jackson St. Alabama Heritage Donald w.

What's Jello going to do?" Mr. Campbell kept it clean for "Donahue," although Bob De-Moss director of the conservative Focus on Family stunned Phil with an expletive that was heard in some markets where the show is broadcast live. "I'd like to keep this job," Mr. Donahue said in asking his guests to calm down. Mr.

De-Moss, sitting sheepishly, later apologized. The two TV appearances should keep fueling sales of "As Nasty As They Wanna Be," which are fast approaching the 2 million mark. A federal judge in Florida last week declared the album obscene. His jurisdiction is limited to three south Florida counties. San Antonio store owners pulled the record from shelves this week after they were threatened with arrest.

Mr. Campbell's outburst will have "Geraldo" censors scurrying. He used, in several forms, one of the more popular obscenities from his album. Campbell also referred a half-dozen times to a song by rappers NWA that uses the same word. "It will definitely be our most bleeped show ever.

However, each time the course of the river's flow is altered, usually by flooding, new quarrels arise. The confusion has caused disputes over taxes, mineral rights and law enforcement jurisdiction. So once again, Texas and Oklahoma officials and the federal Bureau of Land Management will try to resolve the issue.

WICHITA FALLS, Texas (AP) Texans and Oklahomans want to draw the line once and for all that determines an exact boundary of the Lone Star State and they'd rather do it Sooner than later. The Red River has served as an official divider between the two since Spain and the United States signed a treaty in 1819 to set the southwest boundary of the Louisiana Purchase.
