Of that figure, 20 per cent or 31,000 are medically indigent. That means they do not have adequate funds to meet doctor bills. This is the estimate of the State Department of Public Welfare, made in connection with the federal program that will provide aid to the states that put up matching money to care for the aged who need medical care. A bill has been introduced in the Nebraska Legislature to pro vide state funds to match the federal government money in such a program. Estimated cost of the propos ed Nebraska program, as includ ed in the bill before the Legis lature, is $4.1 mllon for a two year perod. The federal govern ment would pay 56.8 per cent of the cost. Under the Nebraska bill, pro posed by Sen. Sam Klaver of O maha, reasonable costs exceed ing $50 for hospital and $25 for surgical expenses would be paid for any six-month period. Coverage is limited to those who live alone and have less than $125 per month net in come or less than $175 per couple. It is expected there will be considerable debate on the measure in the Legislature. The welfare department esti- maSes that 16,400 ;ersons would be eligible for the new federal program in Nebraska. Teacher Reports The Legislature's interim committee on higher education has recommended abolishment of the present Normal Board for governing state teachers colleges. The colleges are at Wayne, Chadron, Peru and Kearney. Headed by Sen. Richard Mar vel of Hastings the committee thus backed a recommendation by Dr. Lyman A. Glenny of Cali fornia who handled the study for the committee. It was recommended that the governing group for the four colleges be expanded to 11 mem bers, appointed by the governor with the board hiring an exe cutive director. A report on the matter said the present seven-member Nor mal Board is made up of men who represent the individual colleges, or the geographical regions in which they are lo cated. Findings said that "these j members tend to favor a parti-1 nnnianonEiEannnE! cular institution in all actions concerning the four schools. Thus the welfare of a college depends upon the relative in fluence of a single representa tive on the board.'' The study added that "as a result, operating and building funds have been allocated over the years more on the basis of personal influence than on any measure of objective need." The report also recommended dropping of graduate programs! at the colleges unless they are fully accredited by January, 1963. There were ol changes in the educational structure recom mended by Glenny, 34 of which were approved by the Marvel committee. Highway Funds Nebraska will get an addition al $10.9 million in highway funds under a plan announced by President Kennedy. The states have been urged to speed up road construction as much as possible to use the money. Nebraska would have $44.2 million available for the fiscal year ending June 30. Hoard of Control On July 1 there will be a new member of the State Board of Control, which governs state in stitutions. He will be James Murphy was named by Gov. Frank Mor rison to succeed Charles Lee man, currently board chairman. Both are Democrats. On July 1, Vice Chairman Harold Peter son, a Republican, will move up to board chairman and Mrs. Ethel Kirwin, member, will be elevated to vice chairman Murphy did considerable work for the governor in his elec tion campaign. Fake Kits Law enforcement officials re vealed they have been investi gating for some time distribu tion of counterfeit driver's li censes, draft cards and birth registration cards. Al Scissors, director of the State Motor Vehicle Depart ment, says the cards were be ing used primarily by minors to buy liquor. He estimated about 1,000 kits were in circulation, with the driver's license bearing the fake number of L1-1573G9. Legislature Works State senators have settled down to the drudgery of proces sing proposed legislation.
