national Ballalion/Pageir April 20,11 Budget talks near goals United Press International WASHINGTON — After weeks of wrangling, a bipartisan group is in the last negotiations in its drive to reach a comprom ise on President Reagan’s prop osed 1983 fiscal budget. Talks resumed Monday and Senate Finance Committee Chairman Robert Dole said an acceptable compromise may only be a few days off. House and Senate leaders met at the White House for three hours Sunday as part of a month-long search for an acceptable spending package. “We’re in the home stretch,” Dole said of the Sunday confer ences. Senate Republican Leader Howard Baker did not partici pate in Sunday’s talks, but said he believes there is a 50-50 chance that there will be a settle ment acceptable to President Reagan, House Democrats and Senate Republicans. Other legislators participat ing in Sunday’s meeting were Senate Budget Committee Chairman Pete Domenici, R- N.M.; House Budget Commit tee chairman James Jones, D- Okla.; House Republican leader Bob Michel of Illinois; White House chief of staff James Baker; and Treasury Secretary Donald Regan. President Reagan declined to participate in the meetings and returned from Camp David just before the meetings broke up. Baker, appearing on CBS’ “Face the Nation,” warned that if the compromise talks failed, the situation would get worse with budget cuts and tax hikes being debated in Congress amid increasing animosity. “We will enter an absolute jungle of conflict,” he said. Reagan’s proposed $757 bil lion budget calls for more cuts in social programs, an increase in defense spending and a pro jected record deficit of $101.9 billion — a figure that has made Republicans facing re-election nervous.

Boys’ home reunion lures grateful alumni United Press International CHICAGO— Retired bank presidents, consultants, grandfathers and college stu dents — they came back to the school for troubled boys where they got their start. Lawrence Hall School for Boys, now 114 years old, drew 37 of the 12,000 boys who have called it home to the first reunion it has ever held. The gathering Sunday was small in numbers, but big in terms of the emotion that fil led the alumni who returned to Lawrence for a day. Gene Christie, who attended the school from 1932 to 1942, joked that he loved the school so much he and his wife constructed a small facsimile. “We raised our own Lawr ence Hall — nine children and three grandchildren,” Christ ie said. “The school gave me a lot, and I hope we’re able to give something back to the boys who are here today.” Lawrence Hall-Randall House was founded in 1868 as a home for homeless boys. It has since evolved into a ref uge for boys between the ages of 7 and 18 who have emotional problems. Hudson, a retired bank president who lives in Wausau, Wis., attended Lawr ence when it was an orphan age. He said he reineij strict discipline and"! baths on Saturdays. “It might sound ali usual,” he said, “butJ three big bath tubsheldi or four of us and inwi for that weekly sera’ "We showered dun^l week, but the we the big one — long so: back scrubs.” Ed DeHart, who consulting firm in W; ton. said Lawrence' onlv home I knew,’’ said he has brought eacii three children back to ence so they could see their dad came from.” Aggie tailb it of line defensive p en We are now accepting applications for management positions in: • ELECTRONICS • ENGINEERING • INVENTORY CONTROL • PERSONNEL ADMINISTRATION • SYSTEMS ANALYSIS United Pi Perhaps ared by an “mini-se Last ye tkets stum their way to series and tf eant the be for Laker Cot The Denv eariy-season playoff hope hone to fi Applicants should be no older than 34 years old, have a BS/BA degree (summer graduates may inquire), be able to pass aptitude and physical examinations and qualify for security clearance.
