Legislative Dispute Over Ml) Ag School Budget Cut JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) The chancellor of the University of Missouri-Columbia has been called before the House Agriculture Committee to explain proposed cuts in university agriculture programs. Chancellor Herbert Schooling said Friday he will appear before the committee Monday night. Legislators complained of cuts amounting to $931,000. Sen.

Norman Merrell, chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee who is a farmer by profession, said the slashed funds could be "one of the hardest blows to agriculture in the state" and produce the "biggest credibility gap ever created by the University of Missouri." The cuts, he said, include a swine research center scheduled to open July 1. Merrell ADC Payments In Monroe Increase By Mrs. Miriam Vanhuis PARIS Aid to dependent children (ADC) payments increased by $407 in Monroe County in May with a total of $12,036 paid by the Family Services division.

Nursing care payments for 111 recipients in the county totaled $20,391, $336 less than paid last month. payments for nine foster children totaled $900, an increase of $300 over the previous month; general relief was down $70 at $751 for 12 persons; two received $100 each in aid to blind and blind pension payments totaling $200 were paid to two recipients.

Rep.

D.R. Osbourn, D- Monroe City, chairman of the House Agriculture panel, said figures supplied to him show that $753,535 has been taken from agriculture research programs, $100,000 from extension and $77,475 from instruction. "In the eyes of agricultural people and the good of consumers, research is something we must have if we are going to continue a good supply of food for our population," Osbourn said. Concerning the meeting with Schooling at the Agriculture Committee's request, Osbourn said, "We're not trying to be dictatorial. We aren't trying to demand anything unreasonable.

We're just confused as to why such a terrific decrease in agriculture when some other departments have hardly been touched." He said the College of Agriculture would be cut by 7.5 per cent, compared to only a 1.42 per cent cut for administration. Sen. Merrell noted the Senate Appropriations panel approved a $6.5 million increase for the university next year and he can't see why the programs are being cut. "You could give them the moon and they would want to put it between two crackers and eat it," he said. Merrell said the legislature could move to line item funds for the agriculture programs next year to insure they won't be slashed.

If that happens, the university would be the only state agency which the legislature specifically tells how to spend its money. Senior Barred From Exercises ST. LOUIS (AP)-A St. Louis circuit judge has upheld the position of a parochial high school that barred a senior from graduation exercises today because he missed rehearsal early in the week.

Most Of United States Air Becomes Illegal At Midnight Former Montgomery School Head Reported Quitting At Ft. Zumwolf WASHINGTON (AP) At midnight tonight the air in most of the United States becomes illegal. It will be cleaner than it used to be, but not so clean as Congress has ordered it to be. Environmental Protection Administrator Russell E.

Train reported Friday that only 89 of the nation's 247 Air Quality Control Regions appear to be in compliance with all of the five antipollution standards legally required by June 1, 1975. The others appear likely to fall short, in varying degrees, of one or more of the standards for cleaning up airborne smoke and dust, sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide, smog, and nitrogen dioxide. The passing of the deadline will not spark any sudden crackdown by EPA on polluters, Train said. But Train said the 1970 Clean Air Act which required the setting of these standards and fixed the mid-1975 deadline has brought about substantial improvements in air quality and paved the way for further progress. Train has asked Congress to leave the original deadline in place, but to give him greater flexibility in forcing the pace of clean-up efforts.

"The nation has made significant progress In cleaning up the air there is no doubt about it but there is still a long way to go," Train told reporters. For example, Train estimated that emissions of smoke and dust have been reduced by some 79 million tons per year since 1970, with about 13 million tons still to be suppressed. Out of the target reduction of 25 million tons a year of sulfur oxides, Train said, reductions totaling some 16 million tons have been achieved. In automobile emissions, he said, the goal was a 65 per cent reduction of hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide in 1972 through 1974 cars, compared to pre-1968 models. Reductions of 40 per cent were achieved in the 1972 models, 50 per cent in 1973 cars, and 60 per cent in 1974 cars in actual use, Train said.

The goal for 1975 cars has been raised to an 85 per cent reduction. The superintendent of Fort Zumwalt School District, previously superintendent of schools at Montgomery City, is expected to announce his resignation Monday because of his second citation in seven months for driving while intoxicated, the St. Louis Post Dispatch reported Friday. The Post reported the sources in the district offices said the resignation of 0. Dean Riley is in the hands of Kenneth Brock, president of the district's school board.

But an official announcement is being delayed until after graduation exercises tonight. School district sources said Riley's resignation was voluntary. Riley's resignation was reported to have been a subject of a closed session of the board Wednesday night. At that meeting, Brock ordered a spectator, Arthur 0. Kelley Jr.

of O'Fallon, arrested when he refused to leave the closed session. The Post-Dispatch learned that Riley may be offered a nonadministration position for the remaining two years of his contract. He would probably take a cut from his current salary of $27,000 a year. Riley was arrested about 1:45 a.m. May 18, driving west on Interstate Highway 70 a short distance west of the highway's Fifth Street exit to St.

With mid-Missouri schools letting out, many boys will become eligible to be Scouts or Cub Scouts and will be joining neighborhood troops or packs, according to Walter Moore, Mexico, Little Dixie District Chairman of the Great Rivers Council, Boy Scouts of America. Boys may become Scouts as soon as they complete fifth grade or are 11 years old.

They may become Cub Scouts when they complete second grade or reach age 8, Moore explained. "One of the advantages when boys join a troop or pack in the spring is that they can get in on special summer activities that the Council offers and that are conducted by Scouting units," Moore said. Many boys learn about nearby troops or packs from their friends, Moore said, or they may contact the Boy Scout service center at Box 736, Columbia, telephone 4495628. Scouting program amis are character, citizenship and fitness. The principal methods of achieving these aims are Scouting ideals, patrols (small groups of boys within a troop), advancement, adult male association, outdoor program, leadership and growth.

The Cub Scout a centered program of activities that provide character building and citizenship training experiences by boys 8-10 years of age. Among summer activities to be offered by the Great Rivers Council and Little Dixie District are: Scout Camp (for boys 11 and older) at Camp Thunderbird, 15 miles northeast of Moberly and Camp Hohn on Lake of the Ozarks, June 15 to July 26; Little Dixie District Cub Scout Field Day, Hensley Field, Fulton, June 21; Webelos Camp at Thunderbird and Hohn, July 20-23 and July 23-26; Little Dixie Cub Days at Thunderbird July 26.
