Opinion by

Judge Mencer,

John Reese (petitioner) has appealed from an order of the Department of Public Welfare (DPW) determining the amount owed by the petitioner to DPW as reimbursement for general assistance. We affirm.

On November 1, 1978, the petitioner applied to the Mifflin County Board of Assistance for general assistance payments. He was then unemployed and had applied for unemployment compensation benefits which were being contested by his previous employer. The application was approved and the petitioner executed an “Agreement for Repayment — Delayed Unemployment Compensation Checks”…
