Weekdays 8 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Saturday, open Sunday 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. 9 rjf I It, Robert Pitofsky Commissioner, Federal Trade Commission, Washington, D.C.: Unfortunately, too many private vocational schools are more interested in making money for themselves than in helping their students earn a living.

Here are some protective steps one might take before signing up: Be skeptical about the advertising, look behind it. How many graduates has the school placed annually in the past few years? But remember, if they'll misrepresent in their advertising, Daniel B. Dunham Deputy commissioner, Occupational and Adult Education, Department of Health, Education and Welfare, Washington, D.C.: Some private vocational schools seduce prospective students by offers of jobs. It's the wrong reason for attending. The right reason: Is it going to give me the skills I need to make a career in this field? It's a field of work, not just a specific occupation? Not just brick laying, but construction trades.

Not just running a dump truck, but training to Jack F. Tolbert President, National Association of Trade and Technical Schools, Washington, D.C.: There are unscrupulous operators in every field, and we have them in fast-growing post-secondary vocational education. I would suggest that one investigate community colleges; many have technical teaching facilities which -are less expensive than private schools. Never sip with a private school representative in your home. Do it at the school after checking it out.

Aid to seven county service units unresolved Argument over Dane County financial support for seven non-profit social programs continued without resolution Thursday. The county Board of Public Welfare approved the 1979 contracts of 10 organizations, but delayed approval of sevenothers due to various problems. Controversy has arisen in recent weeks over the legality of county financial aid to the programs, which are mostly specialized and relatively new.

One program not yet funded is the Dane County Project on Rape, an advocacy organization for rape victims. I For accountability reasons, county officials want access to names of clients and their records.
