FOR A BETTER PENI42 STATE
Lawrence Asks Aid
For West college
By FAROL KUNKLEMAN
Gov. David L. Lawrence said
yesterday ;that he hopes state
aid will be given to college
students in Western Pennsyl
vania. State aid could be ex
tended, he said, on the same basis
as his proposed expansion aid
program for Temple University
in the eastern part of the state.
Lawrence, who spoke to Wash
ington, D.C. newsmen about his
ideas for higher education in
Pennsylvania, said greater oppor
tunities might be offered through
enlarging a Penn State center
in the western part of the state.
In proposing more state aid for
Temple, Lawrence said that ad
ditional subsidies would reduce
tuition costs for Pennsylvanians
and result in admission of 900
more students.
He discounted fears that in
creasing subsidies to Temple
would decrease funds for Penn
Stale and the 14 state-owned
colleges.•• He said his budget
recommendations showed that.
In the presentation csf his pro
posed annual budget of $1 bil
lion Lawrence recMnmended tfrat
a $2O million appropriation be
given to the University.
