Reagan Continued from p. 1
A number of people who heard the speech said they supported Reagan's tax reform plan, but didn't think reform would be easy.
Rochelle Solomon, Kansas City, Mo., said. "If Reagan can deliver what he says he can. I stand behind him. But he's got a long fight ahead of him."
But many people at the Santa-Cali-Gon Days celebration were concerned about their jobs.
More than two hours before Reagan was scheduled to appear, the crowd was filled with demonstrators carrying signs.
Some of them read, "Save our jobs.
Decrease imports," and "We helped you get your job. Now help us keep our jobs."
Larry Guess, Sedalia, Mo., general operations manager for Town and Country Shoes, Inc., said Reagan wasn't providing any import relief for the shoe industry.
"He's turning his back on an industry that isn't going to survive unless our Congress decides to give us some help." Guess said.

INDEPENDENCE, Mo. — Workers from several Missouri-based shoe manufacturers protest President Reagan's free trade policy as he speaks.

and Ogg lived in an apartment last year.
"We wanted the freedom of a house," Aarons said. "There's lots of space, and we each have our own room."
Aarons said the house was not easy to come by. The men searched all summer, and the place was in bad shape, he said.
Aarons and Colgan got the permission of Property Management Services, the lessors of the house, to make repairs. Aarons said the landlady reimbursed them for their work.
"She couldn't believe we were so gung ho," he said. "She sponsored us all the way."
Among other repairs, Aarons and Colgan stripped and waxed the wood floors, repaired and painted the front porch, painted the house inside and out, cut down overgrowth around the house and planted grass.
"There is a beautiful giant oak wood fireplace that had five coats of paint on it," Aarons said. "We stripped and refinished that, too."
Aarons said he and Colgan began working on the house Aug. 1, and
finished about Aug. 16. He estimated that they both worked more than 80 hours each.
"We worked sometimes from 8 a.m. to midnight," he said.
The four men are the only members living in the house. Aarons said that out-of-house members were welcome and that they were starting a little sisters program. A sign-up sheet was posted on the wall at a party the men had last weekend.
"Anyone who wanted to be a member or a little sister of the house signed their name, number and address," Aarons said. "About 70 people signed up, and we'll call them back or send them a flyer to make sure they were serious. We're not trying to make money or run a scam. All it takes is $10 for a T-shirt and a certificate."
GREAT DEALS!
"Members will pretty much be people we know," Arons said. "If it's a stranger, we won't 'rush' him. If it's a friend, we'll help him. We want to know him, at least."
The men of Delta Omega Gamma don't have an official president, but Aarons and Colgan are responsible for running the three-story house because they started the fraternity.
