members of United Way agencies' staffs said the agency requests were forced higher this year because of increasing costs. The agencies are "taking a beating" on increased costs of insurance, unemployment compensation, postage, rent and utilities, they told the board. No new programs and no additional staff are reflected in the agency budgets, they said. United Way of America analyzed campaign performance in 1975. Its report showed that Green Bay and the Brown County area ranked third in population among 12 Wisconsin cities of similar size and fourth in total amount raised.

However, the study also showed the area ranked 10th in amount raised per effective buying income. United Way of Brown County has reached its campaign goal three times in the last 10 years and exceeded the goals in another three campaigns. United Way agencies supported through the campaign include the American Foundation of Religion and Psychiatry, American National Red Cross-Lakeland Chapter, Bay Lakes Council of the Boy er," said Battiola, "but it's not going to happen. It's a minimum goal, and we hope to be more successful." Last year's United Way campaign missed its goal by about $40,000, he added. A survey of executives from major Brown County firms indicated little hope far realizing a goal of 10 per cent above the 1975 goal.

Most executives responding to the survey indicated a 6-8 per cent Increase could be expected from major corporations and from individual donars. About one-third of contributions are collected each year from corporations, said Patrick Crooks, United Way board chairman. About one-half of the total contributions are collected among employes of major firms, he added. About 60 percent of employed individuals in the county do not contribute, Crooks said. "I'm uncomfortable with the goal," said Don Hurd, 1976 campaign chairman, "I know the needs of the agencies.

We've got to arouse the community." The reductions in agency requests "the loss of services" provided by some agencies, warned Crooks. Two members of the Interagency Council composed of By JOE KNAAPEN Prfii Stall Writer The goal of the 1976 United Way campaign in Brown County was set at $920,700 by the United Way board of directors Wednesday. The directors unanimously approved the recommendation prepared by the Goal Setting Committee, The goal amounts to a 10 per cent Increase over the $835,538 raised by United Way in 1975. However, non-campaign revenue last year increased actual allocations to United Way agencies to 879. "We took a hard lood at economic factors as well as agency needs," said Robert Battiola, chairman of the goal setting committee, "and decided reluctantly that it was not realistic to set a goal of over $1 million." The 24 agencies funded through United Way requested $1,267,038, according to a report prepared by Bruce Bell, chairman of the budget com-mittee.

Those requests were "chopped" to $992,690, he continued. The budget committee recommended a goal of to come within $275,000 of agency needs.

Kraft warned me several times that it was coming up and told me to hold on tight.

Then there was a terrible shock to the plane and my mouthpiece knocked me in the nose. And it was all over. I had made it through all five demonstration maneuvers and we were headed back to the airfield. The fact that we had to fly back using instruments because of the poor visibility didn't bother me. We landed softly on the concrete runway, then glided to a stop.

Once the canopy was raised and I was back breathing fresh air instead of oxygen. Fresh air never smelled so good. Then Kraft explained the next maneuver. I couldn't hear him because my helmet was too big and the headphones for the radio were in it, so all I said was "OK." I didn't know what I was saying, but I quickly found out. We did a "wing over" which is a 180-degree banking, rolling turn.

After those two moves, I could have withstood anything. And I did. We did a Phone 499.4442 or 499-31 3 a IVAN MM suited up into a no-mix flight suit by PO l.C. Bill Sims, a crew member. (Sims told me once he had me strapped inside the plane that the suit wouldn't burn.

I wish he hadn't said that.) He then buckled on a blue parachute and life perserver. Those two things suddenly gave a life and death aspect to the flight and brought to mind my usual flying fears. Sims helped me Into my seat behind Kraft's in the two-seater jet. After clamping more clamps he explained the myriad gauges, then left me with the words, "When you land don't do anything until I disarm this seat." There I was. Sitting in a jet in an armed ejection seat and almost touching a yellow and -black handle marked "eject." If ever in my life I was careful not to touch something, it was that lever.

Kraft then got into his closed the canopy and the surge of the jets seemed to deafen the bystanders who had their hands over their ears. It wasn't too loud inside, but I had other things to contend with. Like keeping my hands off of just about every, thing and trying to take notes at the same time. It was a little cloudy when we took off at 250 miles per hour, and Kraft kept apologizing for the poor visability. He didn't know how good he had it.

Once we started going through some of the maneuvers above the clouds, I was mighty glad I couldn't see how high up were were. We did a high performance climb to get up to about 4,000 feet most of our maneuvers were about 30 miles west of Green Bay. Our first move was what he called a "slow roll." We wound over upside down, then returned to regular flying procedure. It made a complete circle. My stomach did the same and I thought I was on my way to unconsciousness.

Somehow I didn't black out, then tried to utter some words of approval into the mouthpiece of my blue helmet. By MARY ELLINGBOE Press-Gazette start Writer Flying has never been one of my favorite past-times, and after a 360-degree flip in seven-tenths of a second while flying with one of the Blue Angels this morning, I can't say I've changed my mind. My pilot was Lt. Nile Kraft, USN, the narrator for the six-man U.S. Navy precision flying squadron.

The plane was a Skyhawk II fighter jet, like the ones the Israelis are now using. We went up for the 25-min-ute flight from Austin Strau-bel Field so that he could show me that the types of maneuvers the team does are simple, smooth procedures taught any Navy flier. The only difference is that the Blue Angels do their flying as low as 100 feet off the ground. Some difference. They will demonstrate their skills Saturday noon at Austin Straubel Field as part of the Adm.

We edged up the horizon, then went upside down and back to a straight path over the white clouds in a gentle, sweeping It would have been hypnotic if not for the strong centrifugal force and the sound of the engines. The last, but absolutely not the least, was another 360 wing-over-wing flip which Kraft did in seven-tenths of a second.
