Hoff To Attend Education Meet
Gov. Philip H. Hoff travels to Kansas City for an education compact conference aimed at guiding states in responding to the expanding federal role in education. Former Gov. Terry Sanford of North Carolina conceived the plan which would form a voluntary multi state body with seven member delegations. Costs would be borne by each state, and the compact would not issue policy but develop alternative approaches. Hoff and Education Commissioner Richard Cibboney voiced support for the idea and the concept.
