Raw deal charged in Ford budget sparks local anger
In a UPI report from Washington and San Francisco, counties and cities say Ford's 1977 budget cuts aid to state and local governments by about 6.7 billion dollars.

Separately, Egil Krogh Jr. joins Swensen's Ice Cream Co. as coordinator of home office administration and franchise store services, calling his move an unfortunate consequence of Watergate era events.
