The huge program, more than double the size of the one presented to Congress by President last January. is expected to be approved Thursday by the full Senate. After that it must be reconciled with slightly smaller higher edu- aid program voted by House.

The Senate bill includes the i student aid programs 'by the Johnson administration but considerably enlarges them. Tliey would include scholarships and work-study plans for the needy and government-insured i low interest loans for families with moderate incomes. The bill also includes aid funds for construction of college facilities and a new program to help colleges buy equipment for laboratories and other insituc- tional programs. The Senate also included a new twist $23 million to finance application of educational extension services, long useil auricultural programs, to lems of urban and rural communities. The House version of the overall bill carries a $650 million price tag for the first year but includes no price figure for the next four years.

The Senate bill calls for $667.5 million in the first year, rising to $1-3 bil- lion in fiscal 1970. Canal Zone Air Crash Claims 8 BALBOA. Canal Zone The crash of a U.S. Air Force plane in the Colombian Andes Saturday killed at least 3 of the 14 U.S. servicemen on board, it was announced today.
