...second position, Jim Dales turned in Harvard's best performance of the afternoon. The sophomore from Michigan shot a 78 that would have been a 75 were it not for a triple-bogey seen on the par-four 18th. Arnold's 83, Chris Ball's 84 and an 83 off the clubs of Tom "Fast Eddie" Edwards concluded the Crimson scoring...
...Hillsdale College in southern Michigan has rejected direct federal aid since its founding in 1844. The college decided to ignore the controversial Title IX of the 1972 Education Amendments, which ruled that if any students in a college receive federal assistance, the school must be classified as a "recipient institution" and must comply with the hundreds of regulations imposed on Government-supported schools by the Department of Health, Education and Welfare. Hillsdale has launched a $29 million fund drive to aid its students should the Government refuse to provide their loans and scholarships...
...well make for greater competition, lower fees and more of a supermarket approach to the law. The days of the independent, prosperous general practitioner are numbered.

Now the state expects a surplus of $360 million this year and is debating how much to cut taxes. Michigan last November projected a deficit of $78.4 million in its 1978 fiscal year, ending Sept. 30. Now it expects a $68.4 million surplus, and Governor William Milliken is proposing reductions in property and income taxes. Budget Director Gerald Miller agreed with a reporter that the estimate of a deficit...
Many are reducing taxes. The Tax Foundation has added up proposed cuts in income taxes alone totaling $625 million annually in eleven states, including New York, Michigan and Minnesota. Property taxes are another favorite target, since they have provoked citizen revolts in many areas. California wound up last year with a $2.9 billion budget surplus, largely because, in line with Governor Jerry Brown's celebrated small-is-good philosophy, the state severely held down spending. Now flush California is planning to cut citizens' property taxes by $1.4 billion...
