Vol. 103 No. 29 University of Delaware, Newark, Del. · Thursday, Jan. 17.1980 Chrysler Might Get a Lift From $15 Million State Loan By MICHAEL J.

Wendell Larson, an ex­ ecutive vice-president for Chrysler, said he sees no pro­ blem in receiving govern­ ment aid since its auto pollu­ tion and safety regulations are largely responsible for Chrysler's present financial condition.
