this, program administrators usually try to spend all of the money they are given. Waste and/or a shortage of funds at the end of an appropriate period, he said, are frequent results.
But, the federal administrator said, he had never heard of a program running out of money five months early. "This program seems to have been very poorly managed," he said.
When KU received its 1968 grant from the Bureau of Higher Education, the total was $14,047 less than the previous year's appropriation.
Administrators pointed out that the unique feature of work-study is that it benefits, not only the students, but the departments which hire them, since the federal government pays 80 per cent of student salaries.
Federal money has been a boon to, among others, the KU library system, the Museum of Natural History and the school's athletic department.
The athletic department, the second largest employer of work-study students, for example, hired 42 persons under the program. Of 20 tutors employed for KU athletes, six were paid with work-study money, according to John Novotny, department athletic counselor.
The remainder of the students, he stated, performed office tasks, stadium chores and related duties.
How have the athletic department and other departments and divisions fared without the work-study funds?
Spokesmen for the major employers of work-study students
said their programs have been damaged, but not irrairably.
Novotny said the athletic tutoring program, which he directs, had not been cut back. But, he added that he would be limited in the amount of aid he could provide athletes in upper division courses.
Woody Moore, in charge of employment for the largest user of work-study students, the computer center, said the fund stoppage has placed the center under a "substantial strain." He said he had been forced to cut his work force by at least five part-time and two full-time employees.
"We wouldn't care if all the students in the program worked in the Computation Center," he said, so long as the students are helped financially.
William Seymour, instructor in photojournalism, a small workstudy user, said he had cut from four to two his number of lab assistants working in the photojournalism department.
Robert Billings, director of the Office of Student Financial Aid, said both his office and the Bureau of Higher Education stress the importance of aiding students through he program.
But a large number of students—how many no one knows are working in jobs they hadn't planned for, or are not working at all because a program went broke.
Benefits to the University, said Billings, are only secondary.
Billings assured that some sort of a budgeting system would be used for the program in the future.
Business interrupts Onassis honeymoon
NIDRION, Greece (UP1)
Aristotle and Jacqueline Onassis broke off their honeymoon today to let the Greek multimillionaire attend to business, an aide said.
In Boston, Cardinal Richard James Cushing said Kennedy family associates tried to block the wedding.
An officer of Onassis' $3 million yacht Christina said the former Jacqueline Kennedy and her bridegroom were using a private helicopter and plane to fly later in the day to Athens. The aide said Onassis had urgent business in the Greek capital.
In Boston, the Roman Catholic Church prince and Kennedy family friend defended Mrs. Onassis' marriage and said he had encouraged the match.
"I know what she had been going through for many, many months... I have been contacted by many of those who are identified in high places with the administration of the late President and by others intimately related and associated with the Kennedy family to stop all this from taking place—namely, that Jack's widow, God rest him, would marry Aristotle Socrates Onassis.
"Finally she came to me secretly and unknown and unannounced. Only one person was with her, a Secret Service man. She spoke to me about two hours . . . and I encouraged and helped her in every possible way," the cardinal said.
Cushing did not name any members of the Kennedy personal and political family in his speech. But he attacked Mrs. Onassis' critics.
"This idea of saying she's excommunicated, she's a public sinner, what a lot of nonsense! Only God knows who is a sinner and who is not," he said.
The Vatican announced Monday Mrs. Onassis, a lifelong Catholic, was being barred from receiving church sacraments as punishment for marrying a divorceed man. A church official said she became a "public sinner" by wedding Onassis Sunday.

Cushing also said he knew the marriage was coming for months. "I had a letter from her that would be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars if I allowed any of the national secular magazines to publish it," he said. "I burned the letter. My lips are sealed."
In Nidrion, piles of letters from all over the world were pouring into the small post office, still addressed to Mrs. John F. Kennedy or Jacqueline Kennedy.
Sirhan trial evidence
never gave permission for the police search but Judge Walker held this was not necessary.

At a news conference following the pretrial hearing, chief Dep. Dist. Atty. Lynn Compton said the state intends to introduce some material from the seized notebooks as evidence.
It would include a notation reading, "Kennedy has to be assassinated before June 5, 1968"—the first anniversary of the six-day Israeli-Arab war.
HOLLYWOOD (UPI) — Edward Dmytryk will produce and direct "An Act of Anger" for Warner Bros.
Sirhan is a native of Jordan, one of the Arab nations engaged in a continuing struggle against Israel.
'Act of Anger'
Vatician raises eyebrow at Cardinal's statement
VATICAN CITY (UPI) - Vatican officials reacted with disbelief yesterday to Cardinal Richard James Cushing's statement that the former Jaqueline Kennedy could marry "whomever she wants."
Msgr. Fausto Vallaine, the official Vatican spokesman, reaffirmed the Vatican position that the former American First Lady is in an "irregular position" with the Roman Catholic Church because of her marriage to the divorced Aristotle Onassis, and is barred from church sacraments.
"I agree with the cardinal's statement that only God knows who is a sinner," he said. "But whoever contravenes the law of the church incurs her sanctions."
