Call 385-2518 | (Your Congressmen's Vote) Here's how area Members of Congress were recorded on major roll call votes conducted on their return from the month-long summer recess. SENATE Carter Warehouse--The Senate killed, 61 for and 29 against, an amendment requiring the Federal Election Commission (FEC) to investigate loans made by the National Bank of Georgia in 1975 and 1976 to the Carter family peanut warehouse in Plains, Ga. The bank was then run by Bert Lance, and there have been suggestions that the loans fueled Jimmy Carter's presidential campaign. The vote came during debate on an appropriations bill (HE 4393) later passed and sent to conference with the House. - Sen. Lawton Chiles, D-Fla., a supporter of killing the amendment, said: "My understanding is that the FEC has concluded the audit of the Carter campaign. They have also concluded and published their findings on the audit of (Gerald) Rafshoon and his dealings. So I do not see why it is necessary" to pass the amendment. Sen. Gordon Humphrey, R-N.H., an opponent of killing the amendment, which he had sponsored, said: "Since these allegations (about the warehouse loans) have been made, there has been a massive silence in Washington. Nobody is asking: 'What did Jimmy Carter know and when did he know it? Yet, if these allegations are true, Jimmy Carter violated federal election laws." Senators voting "nay" wanted an additional FEC probe into any connection between the bank loans and the Carter presidential campaign. Senators Charles Percy, R, and Adlai Stevenson, D, voted "yea." Unpaid Student Loans--The Senate voted, 52 for and 38 against, to block a plan for collecting some of the $2 billion now owed the government in defaulted student loans. The vote came during consideration of HR 4393 (see vote above). Under the plan, the Internal Revenue Service would withhold income tax refunds requested by individuals who failed to repay government loans for their education. The recovery program was to have been experimental, employing 30 IRS workers and costing $1 million. Sen. Harrison Schmitt, R-N.M., a supporter of blocking the plan, said it was of questionable legality and fraught with civil- libertarian concerns. "Even in the case where an individual is guilty of defaulting on a loan, that individual has the right to due process," he said. Sen. James Sasser, D-Tenn., who wanted to implement the program, said it is "mandatory...to collect the enormous amount of debt owing the honest taxpayers of this country from other citizens who are not conscientious about paying their just debts." Senators voting "nay" favored the IRS debt-collection plan. Percy and Stevenson voted "yea." Private Schools--By a vote of 31 for and 54 against, the Senate refused to support a proposed Internal Revenue Service regulation aimed at private schools which discriminate on the basis of race. The vote came during debate on HR 4393 (see votes above). In part, the regulation apparently quashed by this vote would have made it easier for the IRS to deny tax-exempt status to church-related schools which discriminate. Under court rulings, the separation of church and state is no obstacle to the IRS moving against such schools. The IRS wanted this regulation to bolster its interpretation of court decisions on the subject. - . Sen. Jacob Javits, R-N.Y., said it "borders on the immoral" for the IRS to be denied the authority it seeks to move against such schools. Sen. Strom Thurmond, R-S.C., said that to give the IRS the authority would sanction "an unreasonable entanglement by the state in the internal workings of churches." Senators voting "yea" supported the IRS regulation for denying tax-exempt status to certain church-related schools; Stevenson voted "yea." Percy voted "nay." HOUSE Panama--The House adopted, 247 for and 128 against, an amendment to eliminate most foreign aid scheduled for Panama in fiscal 1980. The amendment, attached to an appropriations bill (HF 4473) later passed and sent to the Senate, allowed U.S. food and medical assistance to Panama but banned all other aid. Rep. Robert Bauman, R-Md., the sponsor, said that Panama is undeserving of U.S. aid at a time when it is getting, in the Panama Canal, "a multi-billion dollar capital improvement paid for by the American taxpayers..." Rep. Clarence Long, D-Md., an opponent, called Panama "a democracy, at least for Latin America," and said that U.S. aid to the country "is aimed at attacking poverty that prevails among rural and urban poor whose annual per capita income is less than $450." Members voting "nay" opposed cutting Panama's foreign aid. Rep. Robert McClory, R-13, voted "yea." Rep. John Anderson, R-16, did not vote. Eye Injuries Mount ' • V I • ' fn WHO KNOWS 1.

Senior Hot Line (Written under the auspices of Lieutenant Governor Dave O'Neal) Q. I heard of a program on college campuses throughout the country just for seniors. Do you have any information about such a program? A. The program you're referring to is called Elderhostel, and is presently offered at 230 colleges in 38 stdtcs. Q. What is Elderhostel? A. It's an educational program designed specially for seniors. Seniors attend a college or university, live and eat in the dormitories, and attend special classes. In other words, it's a chance to become a college student. Q. How long is the program? A. The program is for one week during the summer. Most schools offer more than one week, but different classes are offered each week. Because 230 colleges are involved, there is an Elderhostel program going on at one of the colleges from June to August. .. Q. What kinds of courses are offered? A. The three courses offered each week are geared to stimulating the mind, and concern everything from "Crisis and Change in South Africa" to "The Mississippi River" to "Improvisational Theater." The courses are generally not geared to growing old gracefully. Q. Does Elderhostel happen only during the summer? A. Yes, at most of the colleges. Plans are now being made, however,' to offer programs this winter at certain colleges. Q. How old do I have to be to participate? A. Either you or your spouse must be 60 or older. Q. Is Elderhostel expensive? A. Costs this past year were $115 per week per person. This includes room and board, the courses and social activities. Many programs have "Hostelships available for Eye injuries suffered in racquet sports have more than doubled over the past five years. Tennis, squash and racquetball were responsible for some 4,000 ocular injuries- . last year, up from less than 2,000 in 1973, according to the National Society to Prevent Blindness (NSPB). To prevent such injuries, the National society urges all players-whether or not they normally wear eyeglasses-to use special protective eyewear. "As the popularity of these non-contact sports continues to rise, so does the threat of eye damage among players," reported Virginia S. Boyce, executive director of the society. "A tennis ball that feels relatively soft becomes a hard missile at speeds which can exceed 100 mph. The smaller the ball, the greater the potential to injure eyes. Un­ protected eyes are left open to injury and possible vision impairment, most of which could be prevented," Mrs. Boyce added. Eye safety is as important for the seasoned player as it is for the casual beginner. Recognition of this fact is underscored by a recent Canadian Racquetball association regulation making eye protection mandatory for all tournament participants. "Safety eyewear can absorb the impact of the ball or racquet-and spare the eye," Mrs. Boyce advised. "The added protection can also help players overcome the sub­ conscious fear of being hit in the eye, making for more competent play. All in all, such protection can only be a plus to your game," she asserted. Mrs. Boyce recommends that players protect their eyesight by wearing either sports eyeguards or industrial- strength safety glasses with a frame designed for heavy-duty use. Those who don't normally wear spectacles--or who do wear contact lenses-can purchase lensless safety eyeguards at sporting goods stores or racquetball pro shops. Eyeguards with corrective lenses have recently been developed for eyeglass- wearers. Safety glasses with piano (non-corrective) lenses are available for about $5 from industrial safety suppliers. Those who need prescription lenses can order corrective safety glasses from an optician. Cable temples which fit snugly around the ears are advised, to keep the eye protection in place during active play. Any kind of lens can be tinted for outdoor use. "Selecting safety eyewear depends on individual needs and tastes. While the variety is growing, these devices can only prevent ocular damage if players realize the need for eye protection and use it regularly," Mrs. Boyce said. Mrs. Boyce concluded, "For a safe and successful game, remember: Keep your eye on the ball, but away from danger, by using special protective eyewear. There is no better way to prevent painful ymon threatening injuries." The National Society to Prevent Blindness, established in 1908, is the oldest voluntary health agency nationally engaged in preventing blind ness through community service programs, public and professional education and! research.

Labor Arbitration Service - Illinois Labor Director William M. Bowling last week an­ nounced formation of the Illinois Arbitration Service to meet the public need for a separate negotiation service available to labor and management without charge to either party. The neutral organization's members are professional arbitrators. "This service is a good example of how government can work to promote good labor- management relations in Illinois," said Bowling. "Good labor-management relations are beneficial in promoting Illinois as a good place to work and live."
