Beverly White, Editor don't want to hire the handicapped." Rosenthal stressed that the Bureau works with all disabled persons, both physically and mentally.

He explained that juveniles with "behavioral disorders" and 'iow I.Q. children" are socially disabled and qualify for rehabilitation. "We have to workwiththe whole problem. Just giving the person the job doesn't solve it. Often people have psychological problems with the loss of a limb for instance, problems of adjustment," Rosenthal said.

By administering proficien- -JJsF iJilL. cy tests and individual counseling the Rehabilitation Bureau can place the disabled into training programs or schooling. The center also serves as a directory through which skilled handicapped laborers may find suitable employment. The Bureau is a service -of the Ohio State Board of Education and is partially suppli-niented by aid from the federal government. "We get an allotment from the state and federal government.

For every dollar we get from the state, we get three from the government," Rosenthal reported. People don't realize help is available if they know were to go." "Right now, one of our main problems is public relations. Not enough people know about our services. We should be reaching more people," Rosenthal remarked.

"The kids were overanxious at first, they thought I'd stop breathing if they'd walk away," Jane recounted. "We had three steps in the dorm but they built a ramp. I must have climbed a housand steps." Attendants helped Jane reach classes where she aspired to high academic standing and gained a circle of friends.

"It is important to stay in touch with people who are ambitious," she said. Otterbein served as a springboard to new confidence. Out of school now, Jane plans to teach mentally retarded children and during the summer to continue school and earn a master's degree. The thought of entering the outside world is a fear she has learned to control. "I don't think handicapped people should think they shouldn't compete.

The goal that you work for is self-respect, to prove to yourself that you can contribute in some way." Steven Rosenthal, Jane's present counselor from the Zanesville branch of the Bureau commented, "We have to overcome apathy in the county with skilled workers. A lot of it just comes down to prejudice.
