No Braille Playboy Funding Sparks At Ohio Blind School
Congress moved to cut federal support for Braille Playboy magazines, a decision that would cost the Clovernook Home and School for the Blind in North College Hill about 103000 dollars annually. The institution relies on Braille printing for 55 staffers and students who also produce Braille versions of Better Homes and Gardens National Geographic and Seventeen. Rep Chalmers Wylie of Ohio championed the amendment, awaiting Reagan's approval, with Wylie calling the program not a justifiable use of taxpayers money.
