EDUCATION (Continued from Page One) Federal school officials refused to give more than first year costs, although Congress will insist that an over-all price tag be placed on the program. It "as learned that portions of the school plan originally would have run up to five years, carrying a cost figure of than $6 billion. But the proposal was scaled-down late last week to three and four years costing about $5 billion. Presumably this was 'done to dampen critical comment from Congress. Makes Concessions The program was tailored to meet some of the congressional objections that have dogged school aid proposals from both Democratic and Republican presidents. These changes may get some parts of the program through Congress. But it carried little promise for an end to the church-state fight for aid to grade and high schools. Kennedy asked for a four-year,

The program was smaller and cheaper than in 1961. Unlike past requests, he did not give his reason this time for seeking no direct aid to private and parochial schools. However, the President made it clear he regarded Congress as duty-bound to face and resolve the religious dispute as well as others facing school aid proposals. “We can no longer afford the luxury of endless debate over all the sensitive questions raised by' each new proposal,’’ he said. “The federal government . . . has clearly not met its responsibilities in education,” the President said. Warning that “ignorance and illiteracy . . . breed failures,” the President said his bill would increase the educational opportunities of "potentially every American.” He said this was vital both to national security and domestic well-being. ; . Shies From Control Kennedy said the federal gov-' ernment would neither take over control nor financing of the entire education system under his program. Instead, he said, it would select the spots where aid was most needed and apply it in a way that would stimulate state and local effort. The new program included several major concessions to critics of the 1961-62 proposals. The largest was the deletion of any proposal for federal college scholarships, which passed the Senate but not the House last year. The President proposed instead to add $45 million to the present S9O million college student loan fund under the 1958 National Defense Education Act (NDEA) and provide funds for 10,000, rather than 1,500, graduate fellowships each year.

Petition Designed For Senate Majority WASHINGTON (UPI) — Liberals... todav .circulated a roundrobin petition designed to get a majority of the Senate on record for a vote in favor of tightening its anti-filibuster rule. Frustrated by Senate rules and lack of a helping hand from the Kennedy administration, the rulechanges advocates tried the device of getting an unofficial commitment by signature. One member said it was designed to get a “clear majority expression on the substance” of the rules dispute. He predicted at least 51 of the 100 senators would sign up. The Senate was expected to reach some kind of record vote late this week, probably Thursday, _on a ;japtiqjj-. to table a pending constitutional question. The liberals still hoped for a White House boost for their cause. i “I& wouldn’t even take a stroke of the pen downtown to get us out of this,” said Sen. Clifford P. Case, R-N.J. "I still hope the President will express himself in favor of a rule change. It would be important for his program.” The present rule requires a two-thirds vote to end a filibuster. The liberals are trying to get action on a pending amendment by Sen. Clinton P. Anderson. D-N.M., that would let threefifths of those voting curb a filibuster. Actually, the rules can be amended by a straight majority vote, if those advocating the change can ever get the opponents to stop talking so they can vote.

Southerners, backed by some ; small-state senators fearful of i outright majority rule, have i blocked a vote on Anderson’s motion to call up his three-fifths ; amendment.

Dr. Sam Sheppard Reported Engaged COLUMBUS, Ohio UPD-The case of Dr. Sam Sheppard, convicted of murder in the bludgeon slaying of his pregnant wife, Marilyn, took a surprise turn on the eve of his latest bid for freedom. Sheppard's Boston attorney, Lee Bailey, said Monday night the doctor is engaged to a German divorcee. The state Pardon and Parole Commission today was scheduled to act bn Sheppard’s application for commutation of his life sentence for the 1954 slaying in the couple’s Bay Village home near Cleveland. Bailey said Sheppard became engaged to Mrs. Ariane Tebbenjohanns, 32, of Dusseldorf, Germany, after a courtship by mail. He said the correspondence began three years ago after Mrs. Tebbenjohanns, the mother of a nine-year-old daughter, became interested in Sheppard’s case. Visits Prisoner Mrs. Tebbenjohanns visited Sheppard last week at the Marion Correctional Institute and became engaged. “We hope to marry as soon as possible,” the blonde Mrs. Tebbenjohanns said. “I hope to be very happy with Sam. “There is a great interest in the Sheppard case in Germany. I intend to write, if necessary, about this shocking affair. In my country, American justice and fairness is usually praised. "Naturally I was very disappointed in the verdict and I am convinced of his innocence.” Asked what convinced her of Sheppard’s innocence, she said: "Not one particular thing in the case, but the whole case makes me feel he is innocent.” L Acts As Go-Between Sheppard’s brother, Stephen, said he served as a go-between in the correspondence. Prisoners are allowed to write only to relatives. “She would write to me and I would write to my brother and then relay his letters to her,” he said. Stephen said his brother and Mrs. Tebbenjohanns “hope to stay in Ohio with his 16-year-old son, Samuel. They would then bring her daughter over from Germany. But she is willing to go wherever he goes.”
