Regents End Discounts for Legislators and Officials

The state board of regents voted to end discounts for legislators and state officials on University of Iowa hospital bills, per Governor Harold Hughes. Regent Crabbé objected, while others supported a non college connected architectural consultant for long term building plans amid Kerr Mills reform. The council also addressed physician fee practices and a proposed $7.50 daily flat rate for medical aid to aged, with nursing homes seeking freedom to set private patient charges. The executive council approved purchasing three Piper Aztec planes for the governor, and the Jerry Rabiner Memorial Boys Ranch dedication hailed as a state wide boon comparable to Boys Town.
