WITH THE scare of Alps — ‘Acquired Im-
mune Deficiency’ Syndrome — increasing as
the fatal disease strikes its victims uncxpected-
‘ ly, some of the public has voiced an interest in
‘having government funding support research
into'a cure. Inquiring reporter asks people on
the street: )

for. AIDS research?

Joe Baxfield

It.

can’t just single out ane.
Why should the gov-
ernment sponsor one
organization and not
another?
