University Daily Kansan, September 17, 1981 Page 5 Grant From page 1 She said if a student worked at a part-time job, SRS would half the cost of the child's care. KU students involved in the vocational rehabilitation program will also be affected when the emphasis shifts from those who can be treated to those in need, in the shortest possible time, Spencer said. "This is a shame because this program has worked," she said. "The people were able to get the education and training to be employable people." Spencer described the other reductions in SRS tests that he was reading the casualty report from WEST. "Aid to dependent adults, retarded and physically or mentally impaired, will experience a tremendous loss. Maybe 25 percent." She said 170 recipients of food stamps would "Evaluating the cuts will be very difficult," Spencer said. "Each case has to be viewed carefully." either have their allotments eliminated or reduced. ALCOHOL AND drug treatment centers will also be hard hit by the cuts, Don Dound, grants manager of the state Alcohol and Drug Abuse Service, said Tuesday. "We've asked for all our centers to make an 11 percent across the board cut, which will reduce overhead costs." "It pretty much boils down to about 25 percent less in funding for this agency," he said. "The Douglas County Citizens' Committee on Environment has been cut from 1,000 from that figure; that was cut to $104,000." Pound said local alcohol and drug centers usually got 60 to 70 percent of their funding from The cuts in social services follow a restructuring federal allocation of money to social programs. CONGRESS recently passed a bill that restructured the program by giving federal agencies a lump sum of money to distribute at the state saw fit among various programs. In nearly all cases, the block grants are chopped to keep pace with reduced federal spending. According to Harder, all cutbacks and changes proposed by the SRS still are subject to change because of the need for adjustments. "It is a picture that could change significantly by October," Robert Harder, director of SRS, said Tuesday. "Implementation of the block program was Oct. 1, when the 1982 federal fiscal year begins." Harder said nearly $50 million of SRS federal资金 would be chopped in the next two fiscal years. Reagan The three-month deferral of the cost-of-living increases would be extended across-the-board for every pension and benefit program and represents a saving of $5 billion, officials said. From page 1 They insisted that a postponement of the scheduled Social Security cost-of-living increase would not represent a retreat on Reagan's promise Tuesday that he would not seek to balance the budget "at the expense of those on Social Security." Officials said the proposed three-month postponement was first recommended by the Democratic Congressional leadership. The proposals officials, said, have the The proposals, officials said, have the unanimous support of the Republican congressional leadership. Reagan met with Stockman and top aides yesterday on his budget plans. He was expected to reveal his plans to a meeting of the full Cabinet today. Deputy White House press secretary Larry Speaks said the group considered "the options for zering in on the necessary cuts" to hold the government's deficit to $42.5 billion next year and to deliver a balanced 1984 budget as promised. The president also was preparing for his trip to Grand Rapids, Mich. much for the dedication of the ship to his wife and children. A senior administration official said Reagan would talk about energy policy, among other subjects, with the Candicans, and about El Goma's American security in general with Lopez Portillo. Reagan will hold discussions with fellow guests, the Trident and Mexican President José Lopez Portillo. But before leaving for Michigan, Reagan will meet with his cost-conscious Cabinet members to review the 1983 and 1984 budget sacrifices each will be asked to make, as well as the 1982 reductions, said to be in the range of $10 billion to $14 billion. mugs embalanced with various soap opera titles that are sold at Pendleton, a lawrence novelty store. "They're a real hot item," said salesperson Katie Walsh. "They came in a couple of weeks ago, and we've already had to reorder." Soaps ONE EXPLANATION for the fascination with the on-going sagas is the glamour and action in the characters' lives. From page 1 Sandra Coulter, Bonner Springs senior, said she watched "All My Children" because of Erica, the good little-bad girl who has been on the show since its beginning. Bernstein said she kept up on "All My Children," although she did not watch it every day. Observing Erica in action from the Union, Schutter said, "She's just nasty." no, she's tirtatious, kind of like a viper.* argued Anna Bernstein, Norman, Oka. sophomore. "She sees a man and opens her eyes." "I've watched it since 1970, when I was 10 years old. Erica was using with Jeff then," she said. "Ever since they expanded from half an hour to hour, the show's been totally irresistible." "It's fun to laugh about the shows with people," he said. "It's fun to gossip—and it's harmless gossip because the people aren't real." SCHUTTER, who also follows "One Life to Live" and "General Hospital," said he watched "All My Children" just for fun. But she added that soap characters overreacted much to be realistic. Bernstein said, "In everyday life, I know a person like each of those characters." Debbie Suggs, Prairie Village senior, said, "They are getting boring, with ridiculous plots." pretty corny lately. It's like 'Fantasy Island.' He said he liked songs better than nighttime songs. "Actually, I don't mind it when the actors mae up lines, because it makes it more comfortable." Realistic or not, the characters on the popular soap operas become friends to those who follow Bernstein said, "I was walking by Wescoe one day and I overheard two people talking. I said, 'What--Sybil got shot?' and he stopped and told me all about it." Alan Clair, a 1980 graduate of the William Clair White School of Journalism, will be the new deputy editor. Journalism grad joins KU Alumni Association A KU alumnus replaced Mike Goff as field director of the University of Kansas Alumni Association yesterday. "Part of my job is to be an alumni representative," Keizer said. "What that calls for is a lot of traveling and working with alumni chapters around the country." Goff, also a KU graduate with a journalism degree, will become an account executive with Valentine-Radford Inc., an advertising agency in Kansas City, Mo. "This job was a lot of fun, but I'm looking forward to a new opportunity," Goff said. Goff's last day at the Alumni Association office was Friday.
