The time, date and location will be publicly announced by the depart ment. - Therprogram is an orderly plan winch serves as a guide to develop priority tran sportation improvements over the next several years. It is designed to match building costs with available and anticipated revenues and is updated each year to account for fluctuating costs, to consider new projects and to adjust priorities. Merit Award Presented To State Univ. A National Award of Merit has been presented to the School of Design at N. C.

McKinney, Dean of the School of Design. McKinney called the award “one of the nation’s most prestigious for local history achievement.” The two design school publications were cited by the association for their . significant contribution to the understanding and appreciation of North Carolina historic ar chitecture, its public huihinjt and vernacular hpflHbig tradition. “Carolina Dwelling,” «Bted in 1977 by Doug Swain, an NCSU graduate •rtudsnt, is a pictorial study which reveals the state’s environment through its A film for tokvtoton’an this ntyect won Swain the National Trtnt for Historic Pmnatics Award.

Jones This week Congress struggled 'to reach agreement on two con troversial issues which had held up passage of a funding tain for most government agencies. Continued failure to pass the appropriation legislation has threatened die paychecks of thousands of military and federal civilian employees and also jeopardises the ability of many government agencies to maintain their various programs. The deadlock involves a dispute on what restrictions should be placed on the Medicaid financed abortions for poor women, and whether there should be a Congressional payraise this year. The House has insisted on restricting Medicaid abortions a greater extent than already exists under current law, and also has backed a 5% per cent Congressional payraise. The Senate wants to maintain the current abortion and has voted against a Congressional {feyraise. I personally feel that these controversies should not have been allowed to hold up I |Hj Aj/m ncA “ _ I Wemm I # STIAII4IWMIB GoAShoPtartUghtKX 1 ■ MM****#, _ jcfc, KSIH | *•*****»• 1 llw , • Contß-ns a matt 1 Millionaires i k I JL'D.“S^ s,K,bu * «-,««*.

But, for nfflMHI the week, efforts to wo.k out a compromise -%r to separate these issues from the rest of the bill, have been unsuccessful. Also foe House worked on a bill authorizing programs under die jurisdiction of the Department of Energy. The House defeated amend ments which would have reimposed price controls on domestic oil prices. This would have rejected the President’s announced policy of gradual decontrol of these costs. Proponents of price control cited the severe burdens being placed on thousands of citizens on limited or fixed incomes because of rising fuel prices. Opponents of the amendment argued that price controls inhibit new production of oil and lead to shortages. A House Committee on which I sit is now con sidering a total revision of U.
