$450,000 in grants to aid KU nursing
The KU Medical Center School of Nursing recently received several grants totaling more than $450,000, Doris Geigely, dean of the school, said Friday.
A grant of $61,119 from the U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare (HEW) in the Nursing Capitation Grant Program was announced early this month. The school will apply the money to faculty salaries, Geilgey said.
If the grant had not been awarded to the University of Kansas, she said, seven faculty members would have been cut from the nursing program.
Geltgay said that next year was the final year for the HEW Nursing Capitation Grant Program, which has provided funds to the KU nursing program for the last two years.
A federal nurse training act will come before Congress this session, she said, and the school is counting on those funds to finance some of the school's operations.
If passed, the bill would allocate more nurses to nursing programs across the country.
ANOTHER HEW grant to the school will be applied to development of a geronimo garden.
The grant of $355,000 covers a three-year
period, Geitjey said, and probably will enable the gerontology specialty to become a permanent trait in the nursing studies. Gerontology is the study of aging.
The grant was one of seven awarded in the country, she said. The KU school received the grant over about 140 nursing schools in the United States with graduate programs.
Margery Duffey, professor and associate dean of the school of nursing, received a five-month extension of a grant, Getgyte National $49,000 was allocated for her project.
The grant originally was awarded to study the feasibility of outreach in graduate management.
"I think we've demonstrated we can do
it. Get膝关节" and that is why the exten-
sion grants
SPECIFICALLY, THE project will concentrate on getting master's degrees for students.
Geigley said the state required master's degrees for nursing instructors starting in program.
The requirement stipulates that degrees are to be completed by faculty in all schools of nursing in the state by July 1, 1978, Geteltve said.
But she added that the State Board of Nursing probably would allow an extension of that deadline if the various nursing schools in the state had instructors they were working on degrees.

Food stamp revisions in future
Deadline announced for exemption exam
"There's no official notice telling me to do things differently, so I'm doing things like before." Maurice Peters, Douglas County Employment Services (RHS) employed said Friday.
By DAVID PARRIS
Peters said he did not know when he would receive notice about the change.
Federal food stamp program revisions, designed in part to reduce the number of student recipients, have yet to be implemented although they became law Oct.1
federally financed work-study program; *a*) has weekly earnings equivalent to 20 hours at the minimum wage; *3*) is registered for at least 20 hours of work a week; or *4*) is the head of a household with at least one dependant.
Under the new program, participants no longer will be charged for stamps, and all purchases are made at the store.
Under the new guidelines, students who are claimed or are eligible to be claimed as tax deductions by their parents and are enrolled as least halftime, will be denied eligibility, provided their parents are not stamp recipients.
HARDER SAID that the USDA now was sponsoring a number of hearings across the country to gather public response to the changes.
"I would imagine with this type of change there'll be a public announcement by the Department of Defense," he said.
Michael Eggleston, Independence, Kan,
sophomore, and Jonathan Newirk, Independence, Kan, junior, told police that three suits valued at $400, a $200 tape player, were stolen from their apartment between 7:15 p.m. and 11:15 p.m.
Friday.
The apartment next door, belonging to Eugene Redonder, Reading senior, was broken into at about the same time, police said.
The final regional hearing will be held tomorrow at Bismarck, N.D. from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the North Dakota Highway Department building. Kansans interested in hearing comments may call the USDA's toll-free number: 1-800-752-8222.
The USDA had provided food stamp recipients with limited travel fare to the United States.
But an estimated total of 1.5 million recipients will be eliminated under the new program because of tighter eligibility requirements.
Robert Harder, director of the state SRS, said the new regulations should be implemen- ted on June 1, 1978, according to a U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) timetable.
Peters, who works only with stamp applicants not receiving public assistance, said he did not know how many students he be eliminated from the food stamp rolls.
The major revision of the food stamp program was the elimination of the purchase requirement in ministration expert estimates that three million people who could not afford to buy stamps would take advantage of the free program. In 17,230 million people now receive food stamps.
Also, a student will be disqualified from
liability unless he: 1) is employed at least
seven years; 2) is not a resident of the
country.
Redderon reported that his cabinets and drawers had been rifted and that more than $250 in personal property was taken. He too, with the help of a friend with luggage and about 10 record albums.
He estimated that 30 to 40 per cent of the county food stamp recipients were non-public assisted. Of these, he said, up to 50 per cent were students
Clothing and stereo equipment valued at more than $1,000 was stolen late Friday night from two neighboring KU students' apartments at 1500 W. Ninth St., the Lawrence Police Department said yesterday.
THE NEWSLETTERS that we get indicate that there is considerable pressure to maintain our safety.
Police said entry into the two apartments had been made by prying open the front doors. Police said the burglaries were being investigated.
Students who plan to take the oral communication exemption examination must register today in the speech communication human relations office, 3002 Wescoe Hall.
Peter said there could be a few students who received public assistance through such as a student mother, but he said the was no way he could determine how many.
"I make no distinctions. Personally I feel it's discriminatory in nature to discriminate by a class, but somewhere between 35 to 50 per cent of the applicants I've been involved with have not been from typical family households," he said.
All students in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences must meet the oral communication requirement, and the course is one way to fulfill the requirement
KU students targets of weekend burglars
The examination will be given Nov. 3 and 4.
Successful completion of one of the eight courses involving oral communication in the department of speech communication and language also will fulfill the requirement.
Students also may be exempted from the requirement if they have completed one year of high school coursework or a grade of "B" or better, or one-half year of high school speech courses with a grade of "B" or better and extracurricular activities required or debate equal to a semester's work.
The eight courses are: Speech 103: Reading and Interpretation; Speech 105: Improvisation; Speech 106: Acting; Speech 107: Speaker-Audience Communication; Speech 140: Fundamentals of Speech; Interpersonal Communication; Speech 150: Introduction to Broadcasting; Introduction to Broadcasting Performance; and Speech 230: Fundamentals of Debate.
