California Senator Blames Reagan for Rising Abortions
Mountain View California Senator Anthony Beilenson accuses Governor Reagan of raising abortion rates by vetoing state funded birth control programs. He says welfare costs rise as young women seek relief after bearing unwanted children and criticizes the governor for blocking access to birth control information for minors. He cites a veto of a bill allowing female minors birth control without parental consent and argues timely birth control and medical advice are needed to prevent unplanned pregnancies.

Dumke calls for larger budget for 19 campus system
State College Chancellor Glenn S. Dumke urged Gov. Reagan and the Legislature to raise next year's budget for the 19 campus system. He asked for a $69 million increase, noting the governor’s $315 million proposal falls short of the current $310 million and would force choices between quality and numbers. Dumke warned the system faces more than 20,000 new students and outlined programs to expand facilities, staff, and extend services to speed degrees. He said lowering quality or cutting student numbers would be unacceptable, with a preference for preserving enrollment.
