By ZA.N STARK and . ANN if. PEARSON United Press International SALEM (UPfi The Educa tors responsible for Oregon's stu dents came to the l3 legislature with pleas, cajolery, and warn ing that the level of education must be kept up. Tlieir experiences with the leg islature ranged from cordial to rugged. When it was all over, their feelings ranged from satisiicd, to mixed, to outspokenly adverse. The bicgest problem was money. Education will take more than half tlie ft04 million for the next two years'. The most bruising fight was over the college and university system. which got the most detailed re view of any subject before the legislature.

I thought I was indestructible but I realize iow how frail is man and how few are his days. I have spent most of my adult lile in the real estate business and I've done my share of cheating. I used to rationalize my affairs saying "Why not? What have got to lose?" I even told my self my wife was cool to me. when I knew she had every right to be. I drank a lot and stayed away from home for days at a time. I know now the only genuine happiness I ever had was with her. I'd give anything to make up to that dear woman the an guish and heartache I've caused her. If (iod spares me I will upend the rest of my life being good husband. Before 1 go into surgery I shall tell my wife about this letter so the can watch the paper for it. It is something 1 feel compelled to do. Please. Ann, print this. W.E.J.

Education Lobby Fared Medium Well In Legislature Walsh Creed More When tlie legislature convened in January, William Walsh of the state Board of Higher Education jabbed his glasses at a commit tee and declared the system would fight for more than the gov-e-nor had proposed. It ended up with a little less, but in view of the money prob lem, it fared well. Higher education came out with a S77.3 million genital fund oper ating budget plus $2 million for a hospital transferred to its medi cal school from the board of con trol. It was given a $4-1 million build ing program, using both bonds and general funds, although a por tion of it is contingent upon voter approval of a bond issue. And it got $1.7 for salary improvements over and above built-in raises. The main cuts in the ooeralinti budget came from a reduction in new teachers. Under legislative pressure, the system also in creased student fees, particularly for out-of-state students. Deterioration Claimed When it ended, Walsh called it "the hardest blow higher educa tion has suffered in 20 years. . . it means a real deterioration." C h a n c e 1 1 o r it. E. Lieuallen spoke more softly. He said the system "fared well in some areas and suffered setbacks in others." He was critical of faculty cuts, and said inadequate salary money will cause the system to "slip back an additional step or two." His praise look in graduate pro grams and scholarships. Tlie new chancellor also spoke well of the committee that gave him his baptism of fire at a leg islature. Wis members, after work ing with him through the session, returned the praise and called relations a "decided improve ment" over liHil. But a few other legislators were rankled at education pressures, and termed Lieuallen the legisla ture's "highest paid lobbyist." Gov. Mark Hatfield called the legislature's actions "detriment al to tlie quality pi higher edu cation." Freedom Left Intact In an area perhaps more im portant than money, however, higher education came out of tl session with its freedom intact. The lawmakers talked, as they always do, of spelling out just where the dollars are to be spent, as is done in other budgets, but they didn't do it. For lower education, from grade one through community colleges, the legislative experience was quieter and happier. Hatfield and Superintendent of Public Instruction Leon Mincar noted that schools got what the governor requested, and the com munity colleges got a little more. Tlie legislature approved $141 million for aid to schools, an in crease of about $10 per child. It still left the state's share of school costs at only about 39 per cent. Special Programs Helped Special programs got $o.8 mil lion, community colleges, $4.3, the department of education and vo cational rehabilitation $4.1. Tlie legislature said it's possible for new community colleges to be created, but Uicy won't get any state help for a while. Of equal importance, the legis lature overhauled basic school funding, separating special pro grams and changing to a more realistic count of school children. lis appropriations come out to $143 per child the first year of tlie biennium and S1S2 the second. Adjustments were made else where in education. To move school district reorganization along another small step, a new unit was created the inter mediate education district. It will have the effect of letting the old county superintendent's offices contract across county lines. Shasta Hosts Child Meet MOUNT SHASTA District No. 1 of the California Council for Retarded Children will meet ill .Mount Shasta on June 15 at il a.m. in the Sisson School.
