Saaaenberger Combo FRIDAY 8:30 TO 12:90 BLACKHAWK VILLAGE PUMP NEW SERVICE now repairing auto air ditioners also have new tune-up equipment. SLOCUM TEXACO FVanklin, nUnlf oon- Sun Parochiaid By House, SPRINGFIELD, lU. (AP) The Illinois House Thursday adopted a program to give $30 million state aid to non-public schools by a vote of 119 to 56. The bills go to the Senate where a similar program is pending. Debate about the constitutionality of the program was cut short by impatient House members who said the question should be left to the courts.

The biUs are expected to have stiffer opposition in the Senate. Rep. Eugene Schlickman, R- Arlinjgton Heights, argued the three-point program was warranted to preserve not only non-public schools on the brink of quitting because of economic stresses, but because surveys showed that wherever a private system flourished the public school system got strong support. The program is based on an arrangement of parental grants of $60 for elementary students and $90 for secondary students in non-public schools. The amount set aside for these grants is $20.5 million.

Another $4.5 million is appropriated to give parental grants for children of low income families. A sum of $5 million provides grants for innovative programs developed by combinations of public and non-public schools in depressed areas. In response to fears that nonpublic schools might polarize blacks and whites and encourage segregation, Schlickman said non-public schools have done more than their public counterparts to bring about integration. Constitutional objections were raised by several lawmakers but especially by Rep. Bruce L.

Douglas, D-Chicago, who called the bills monumental toward using state funds to support religious-affiliated institutions. responded that the bills provided only grants to Bill Gets 119-56 parents and do not give direct aid to an institution. He also responded that the bill requires application of the funds to the teaching of secular subjects, and not those dealing with religious doctrine. far does the (non-public school study) commission expect the money to go in meeting Douglas asked. it stop them from closing Schlickman said costs to the state cannot exceed the cost of providing secular education or the amount of providing state aid to public schools.

effectiveness will be demonstrated in the forthcoming years, and the legislature will have an opportunity to Schlickman said. this program you will be able to maximize quality secular education to all children, which is the first sentence of the education article in the new (1970) he said. Gov. Ogilvie Accuses Demos Of Stai I Tactics Jury Rules 2 Deaths Accidental A Morgan County jury heard evidence at two inquests held Thursday afternoon at the county courthouse. The jury found both deaths resulted from accidental causes.

The first inquest was into the death of 45-year-old Richard Morris of 336 West Court St. Morris was killed May 17 when eight buildings at the Continental Fireworks Company were leveled by explosions. Morgan County Sheriff Harold Wright testified that ne saw Morris lying on the ground when he arrived at the fireworks plant. Wright said made several attempts to aid Morris but was repelled each time by the heat. Sheriff Wrignt also related information he received in conversations with Donald Worth, a Continental employe who was working with Morris prior to the blast.

According to Wright, Worth said he was working with Morris and two other victims of the explosion, Dominick Shalla, the owner of the factory, and his granddaughter, Jodee Scialla. Worth said he saw a burning object in hands and that the fire spread quickly to SPRINGFIELD, Bl. (AP) Gov. mchard B. OgUvie said Thursday he suspects Senate )emocrats of deUberately de- aying action on key money )iUs so they can be used later in political bargaining.

Sen. Cecil A. Partee, D-Chicago, president isro tempore, mmeidately replied that he would legislation requiring the governor to speed action by submitting his money bills no later than the first Wednesday in March. Neither man indicated that the clash reflected any particular impasse in negotiations between the two parties, although Ogilvie acknowledged the continuing talks concerning the differing Democratic and Republican transportation plans. The GOP governor did appear to open the door, a crack at least, to a compromise on $24 million sought by Democrats as an operating subsidy for the Chicago Transit Authority.

At a news conference, Ogilvie said he still would veto a direct operating subsidy for any mass transit system but added. If something less than that wait and OgUvie said that the early months of the session he took a tolerant view of the laconic pace of the legislature. tan now quite he said. Despite his reference to the transportation talks, Ogilvie professed not to know precisely what any political bargainers might want in return for support of his biUs. He smd key money measures touching on mental health, agriculture, insurance and public aid remain bogged down in committees.

In reply, Partee said it has become that the present statuatory requirement that the chief executive deliver his budget message by the first Wednesday in March still allows a chief executive to evade the intent of the Despite his presentation of the budget early in March, Partee said, the governor does not offer his bill immediately but instead drops the General Assembly, at his leisure over the next three months, the assorted appropriation bills ncc- esisary to implement the budget. Among bills that have yet to be introduced are measures to make appropriations of the proceeds of the sale of anti-pollution bonds and to pay salaries (rf department directors and other state officers. Partee also criticized Ogilvie for cutting the budget request from the Board of Higher Education but not outlining priorities and places for trimming. Osage Orange Picnic At I.e. This Evening Mr.
