They have five children, William James, 17, who will enter the University of Michigan next fall; Martha Mary, 16; Sarah Elizabeth, 14; Bridget Carey, 12 and David Andrew, 8. "Bill, Cowlin is an out­ standing symbol of United Way volunteers," president O'Hagan declared, "Doctor, lawyer, merchant, they come from all walks of life to help improve the lives of all people in the community." The fund drive for the 1979-80 McHenry County United Way campaign will begin, officially, Oct. 1. likely without the pay-raise provisions. Rep. Jim Wright, D-Tex., a pay raise su^ortei^said: "Since 1969, the raises Congress has begrudgingly allowed itself have lagged at least 14 percent behind the increases^ i"e cost of living. Do we not belittle ourselves and our institution if we perpetuate and aggravate that disparity?" Rep. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, an opponent, said: "The rate of inflation is one reason to give more emphasis to not having a pay raise for members of Congress...It just is not going to set a very good example for the public if we are not willing to bite the bullet here and now." •* Virtually all members voting "yea" supported the bill and thus the pay raise. ^ Rep. Robert McClory, R-13, voted "nay " Rep. John Anderson, R-16, did not vote. School Prayer-The house adopted, 255 for and 122 against, a legislative amendment in favor of prayer in public schools. The measure seeks to counter the U.S. Supreme court ruling that school prayers violate the constitutional separation of church and state. It was attached to a bill to establish a U.S. Department of Education. The bill (HR 2444) was headed for a final vote. Rep. Robert Walker, R-Pa., the sponsor, said: "We are a people who pray, and prayer should be a part of school life so that it can be a, more important part of each child's life." Rep. Jack Brooks, D-Tex., an opponent, said: "Let us get on and decide whether we want to establish a Department of Education and leave the question of prayers in the public schools to the proper forum and to a more fitting occasion." Members voting "yea" favor prayer in public schools. McClory, voted "yea." Anderson, Madigan did not vote. Rights Commission-By a vote of 130 for and 168 against, the House rejected an amendment to cut the budget of the U.S. Civil Rights commission. The amendment sought to lower the agency budget in fiscal 1980 from the $14 million figure approved by the Judiciary committee to the $11.37 million level requested by the Administration The commission was set up 21 years ago to monitor and advise Congress on race discrimination. Its jurisdiction recently was expanded to cover discrimination against the aged and handicapped. Rep. James Sensenbrenner, R-Wis., the sponsor, said the commission's budget "has almost doubled" since 1973, and that "this bill should be amended downward to reflect the austere times we are living in." * Rep. Don Edwards, D-Calif., an opponent, said the amendment "is a signal of retreat...to black Americans, to brown Americans, to the aged, to the handicapped..." fear or do. They may say one thing in public but they say something entirely different in private." Sen. Paul Tsongas, D-Mass., said: "If senators vote to lift the sanctions, they are going to hand black Africa over to the Soviets." Senators voting "yea" want the U.S. to stop using a trade embargo to penalize the Zimbabwe-Rhodesia government. Sens. Adlai Stevenson, D, and Charles Percy, R, voted "nay.'" Snail Darter-The senate declined, 43 for and 52 against, to exempt the Tellico dam in Tennessee from the Endangered Species act. Because it is said the dam would destroy the habitat of the snail darter, a threatened species, its well advanced construction is blocked by the act. The^ vote came during consideration of a bill (S 1143) extending the act for three years. Sen Howard Baker, R-Tenn., sponsor of the exemption move, said: "The dam was begun in 1967, six years before the Endangered Species act became law. The snail darter species...was not discovered in the Little Tennessee river until 1975, eight years after the project had begun." Sen. John Culver, D-Iowa, an opponent, said Congress should allow applications for exemption to be considered by a special executive branch committee set up last year for that purpose. Senators voting "yea" want construction of the Tellico dam completed. Stevenson and Percy voted "nay." La Rochefoucauld noted that 'We always like those who admire us."
