Ohio approves redistricting plan amid Democrat concerns
The Ohio General Assembly enacted a revised congressional map after weeks of wrangling, extending filing deadlines to April 5. It shifts Erie County from Rep. Don Pease’s 13th District, adds Richland and other counties, and pits Eckart against Mottl for the new 19th District while preserving seats for Oakar and Stokes. The measure reduces Ohio from 23 to 21 districts, aiming for near-equal populations despite odd shapes.

LCCC weighs further budget cuts as state subsidies fall
Lorain County Community College officials warned 1981 82 funding shortfalls grow with new 1.1 percent state cut. Treasurer Donald Arnold said previous 8.9 percent reduction trimmed about 450000, prompting deferrals non essential purchases, tighter spending, vacancy holds, and possible use of reserve funds to balance the budget. He cautioned effects may echo into 1982 83 and questioned impact on student financial aid.
