into compliance with the federal ruling Ohio public schools now have a responsibility to help children with IQs of 50 and above The department of Mental Hygiene grams for those with IQs and Correction

because of a shortage of federal funds am hopeful they (LEAA) will reconsider our application in light of this demonstrated regional law enforcement co-operation" he said talked myself into running for SINCE IN office Gilligan recognizes internal problems as well as outside criticism problem of isolation and insulation of any chief executive is never-ending and certainlyis epitomized in the Presidency myself I travel all I can to colleges union meetings all kinds of public situations that give me a chance to hear people sound off about on their minds And I think I've had more news conferences than any governor in recent memory deny a certain amount of insulation remains For instance found it nearly impossible to eat out get me wrong people being rude usually warm and interested they surround the table and impossible to eat or maintain normal dialog Katie and if we want to see a movie slip into the late show at a suburban movie Since Jan-u a ry my noon luncheon has been a sandwich and bowl of soup at my desk I talk to the staff so not just wasting CAN AIDES stay tuned into vox populi? know they can get around better than I can But no denying the talk is no longer just a free-flowing thing the governor If I pay something other people tend to just shut up rather they even disagree or raise hell than do that natural but dangerous for them to tell a governor only what he wants to hear to say things are joing great when real- going great when real- ly getting his brains kicked out because they out because they want to add to his worries But led down the primrose path unless told the truth GILLIGAN is extremely proud though of the bright tremendously staff he has organized and claims it is one reason why he will not even consider national politics now have a great team going here and not about to turn all this over to John Brown (lieutenant governor) not working to accomplish all this just to let him tear it or four times a Gilligan smiled his wife Katie starts this campaign of saying don't we just find a nice quiet campus But Gilliganisnotso inclined Vigorous attractive determined to pursue politics at 50 his Irish shows when he says three best writers in drama prose and poetry were all Irish Shaw Joyce and BUT IT reveals his own makeup when he says guy who influenced me most about going into politics was Adlai realizes Stevenson was considered a brilliant statesman and an ineffective practical politician but notes much of it (political success) is luck and timing came at a time when the country was looking for other qualities such as Eisenhower seemed to have But what Stevenson did was change his own party behind the scenes not have waged the kind of cam- Laign he did otherwise ich fellow in turn win or lose makes some contribution to the political dia-logue and direction and hopefully not a debasing been in this game a long time and I know the way to be popular in this state I could have taken the policy of new into the legislature and emerged the shining hero of the age It would have been very easy and very popular But it wouldn't be right And I didn't run for this job to be elected Queen of the May" CONVERSELY some of the critics who yell have howled loudest when Gilligan put into effect such austerity programs as closing state Earks and foregoing mow-lg of the Statehouse lawn and Majority Whip Sen Michael Maloney (R Cincinnati) In It they said a recent study of state expenditures and cash outflow had convinced them that if measures were not taken soon there would be a great financial crisis in Ohio They told Gilligan and when you deem such action (le cutbacks and austerity moves) Senate will wholeheartedly support you soon as the austerities went into Gilligan smiled went into the bulrushes" HE HOPES most of the services can be restored once a permanent budget is -approved way things were going by Feb 1 be (40 million in the hole To meet our bills have to call up every dime we have and still be at least (10 million in the hole We would literally have to shut off the lights close the doors and go home Something had to be done and soon It was left to me to A former English professor Gilligan says appalled at a general lack of awareness in the public about how government functions been told people aren't interested in government That what really interested in is sports batting averages and football scores and the drinking habits of movie stars etc I think a tremendous educational effort about government and its functions is needed" was an English teacher when I first got into this game 20 years ago as a city councilman (in Cincinnati) Having no practical' experience in politics I assumed the civic leaders would know what was going on found out within 30 days they hadn't the haziest notion what as going on I remember too when I first discussed with my kids whether I should run for this job or take up golf seriously seemed they could understand my being's councilman because I could affect the city or a congressman because they deal with such issues as war and peace when I mentioned running for governor they said state government really? what does it have to do with anything? what could you Well my kids are neither dumb nor disinterested They just the ha lie st notion what about either happened was I argued so long and hard with them about the importance and necessity of good state government that I The Ohio State Highway Department has picked a route for the relocation of US 50 east It's the same route it wanted from the beginning and the one on which a Eublic hearing was held ist June 15 The 74 mile corridor begins a half-mile southwest of Meadowlark lane on existing US 50 winds past Fairfax Mariemont Terrace Park and ends np at

Mals-barv Park north of the Cross Countv Highway Mayor Charles Proctor owns property on Kenwood road near YMCA drive which he has tried unsuccessfully to have rezoned to permit erection of a charged state certification certification THEY want to teach their children But these schools are still part of our system so nothing wacky is going to Jacobs adds Teachers must still decide how they want to be paid They have an option of -cash for themselves or equipment for the school Garfield and Cummins schools were picked for the study to be done this year because they are relatively small schools (both have about 540 pupils in grades one through six) and children there are achieving below national norms Both schools have total teaching staffs of about 18 But only reading and arithmetic

wielded clubs in a series of clashes which started before noon in the office had been broken He radioed for additional need this job is second to even a GILLIGAN spoke from his office permeated with Republican ghosts and the echoes of old tomato juice-state fair oratory An office which is by the way as austere as some of his cutbacks The floor is covered with plain green carpet (inherited from the Rhodes Administration) Asked where the much-publicized oriental rug is he said dryly rug is ne saia aryiy look closer The pattern's unob- And the chandelier? bump ybur head" he gestured at a bare space in the ceiling Almost by reflex now he launches into defenses of his tax proposals keep pointing out that' Ohio ranks 50th in this nation in taxes On per capita spending of personal income for personal services we're a little 49th The national average on that is (877 In Ohio (5661 of the money being used for services in other states is federal money In other words that's our dough too but the reason spent elsewhere is that we put up enough matching funds here to get more put into Ohio state in the union does less with its resources for its own people than the state of Ohio But you tell people things like that and they think balmy After all this Is the wonderful world of GILLIGAN puckered as if he had a mouthful of persimmons and analyzed: attitude happen by accident or come from God It took a whole generation of 35 years of having nonsense preached at the public so that a statement like that (about taxes and needs) shocks and outrages them because all their lives been told out of shape or wrong Can it be that prophet is a dirty word in Ohio? Gillir insistence on the need for a personal income tax to improve Ohio's mental health and penal facilities and welfare services and other personal services has reaped a bitter harvest of vilification from people already tax-weary and economy-scared understand that people are frightened about the economy and they should be in terrible he considered I think also mad because been lying to them they've been lied to for the past 35 years or I'm lying to them now And either way they feel played for suckers It's just easier for them to believe I'm the one lying which make ft very uncomfortable f' Intruder chased from office Police chased an intruder from the office of Dr Robert Pierce of 3320 Vine street at 3:30 am today Patrolman John Hehe-man fired one shot at the fleeing burglar after the man ran out the front door of the office across the stfeet through a parking lot and over a fence The suspect left the building when Patrolman Rick Sizemore on routine patrol found that i window men then climbed through the window and chased the -intruder into the street Other police reports: aossniES I If HU IKXM I I IK m- it vi Prkw jw-idtir (t-t'-OO- ntp-4 torn 1120 Mr Fmcn v-a Mwrtrw try fMd SiiwrtMi US likM toy Dirt wH unlk pm at a yntardiM Satatcta antna itwi Hwik a tack aoo haac a de an fanei Shiii-y amt a a ciara ta r-t than tka Irsai fta uik ranter.
