District 8 School Board To Re-Open Teacher New Vote Decided On
Negotiation After Defeat of Proposed Budget Chemeketa College
By ANN EVERS Mr. Bob Collins reported the
The Board of Directors of Day-
ton Public Schools, District 8,
Yam'hi21 County met in regular
session on May 10, 1971 at the
Dayton Grade School Library at
8:00 p.m.
The first hour was taken up
with a discussion of the recent
operating budget defeat at the
polls. Each budget com~dttee
member present was polled for
his opinion on what should he
done to get the budget passed at
the next election. A motion was
made to refer the budget un-
changed back to the voters bu~t
died for lack of a second.
The eoncensus was that the
concerned voters had spoken and
demanded a tax- cut.-The will of
the people who cared enough to
come to the polls and express
themselves cannot be ignored.
The number of ballots cast was
469 -- which is 371h percent of
the registered voters in School
District 8. The .budget was defeat-
ed in a vote of --:no 256, to ye~
207 -- or by 49 votes.
The directors requested Super-
intendent Francis Dummer com-
municate with the Dayton Educa-
tion Association to re-open con-
sultation procedures with the
teachers concerning a new sa!ary
schedule.
The board proposed a cut of
one percent in the over-all oper-
ating budget. Since salaries con-
stitute over 70 percent of the
budget, the board will consult on
a one percent reduction of all
salaries. The DEA is invited to a
meeting to consult, confer and
discuss the proposal o.n Monday,
May 17th.
Mr. Robert Dittmer reported
the enrollment at the Grade
School to be 461. He said the
Grade School had experienced a
professional audit on May 5th.
There were three areas reported
to have a weakness. These were
(1) Inadequate science materials
in the 6th grade (2) The over
load of pupils 'in the 6th grades
and (3) The Special Education
rooms are drab and should be
pointed in more cheerful colors.
All three areas ave to he cor-
rected by funds proposed in next
year's budget. The addition of
the third classroom teacher for
the 6't:h grade is the only position
added to the faculty this year.
Mr. Dittmer reported three va-
cancies orx the staff at the Grade
School for next fall plus the new
6th grade teacher. The average
daily lunch count served at the
cafeteria was 422 for Apr~l, with
lf~5 free lunches daily.
total enrollment at the high
school ~co be 414 -- with a break-
down of 157 in the 7th .and 8th
grades and 257 "m the grades 9
through 12.
Mr. Collins showed the direct-
ors a sample handbook for stu-
dents that will be compiled and
go home wFch each student when
school closes in June. The hand-
book will contain the proposed
1971-72 master schedule of class-
es to be offered and a short de-
scription of each to aid the stu-
dent and his parents in plau~ing
for the f~l,1 opening of school.
Mr. ColOns said Earl Makinster,
custodian at the high school for
the-past 2~year~ will retire June
30th.
Candi Sullivan, student member
to the board, reported on all ac-
tivities of April at the 'high schoOl.
Dorothy Pomeroy read a com-
munication from District lawyer,
Willard Cushing, concerning any
possible action on the district
marriage policy. The board in-
structed Mr. Dummer to notify
Mr. Cushing there has been no
change in the district policy at
this time but there will be an-
other review when all pcflicies are
reviewed during the summer
months.
The board accepted the resig-
nation of second grade teacher,
Mrs. Carolyn Zielinski.
Mr. Dummer told of application
being made for Federal Funds for
the Able and Gift;ed Child Pro-
gram. There are funds available
in the amount of '$1.50 per chi!ld
for school districts who apply for
them.
Mr. Dummer also reported lo-
cal property tax monies are not
coming in as in the past years.
To date the district is already
short $45,000 in funds. These
funds will no doubt finally come
in but in the meantime they cre-
ate a problem in meeting expen-
ditures.
The board moved to offer
teaching contracts to Miss Re-
becca Reader for the second
grade and Jon C. Richmond for
grade three for the school year
1971-72.
Those present at this meeting
were Jack Edwards, chairman;
Kent Crawley, chairman of the

Zone May; Ann Evers, Dorothy
Pomeroy, Francis Dummer, Can-
di Sullivan, Bob Collins, Phil

Lowered Budget
SILVEP~TON -- The Chemeke-
ta Community College Board of
Directors decided in a regular
session Thursday night, May 6, to
reduce the college operating levy
to the current level.
The board, in a meeting at SiN
verton High School, reversed an
earlier decision to resubmit the
budget at the second election to
the voters intact. The decision
was termed a result of "adverse
reaction from the public." Sev-
eral board members indicated
.that they believe they must re-
spond to public opinion.
The board will submit the re-
duced budget, which will reflect
no increase from the current tax
rate of 88 cents per $1,000 of true
cash value, to the voters at a dis-
trict-wide May 27 election. Last
year the district voters approved
a levy of 90 cents per $1,000 for
the college's operating budget but
various offsets brought the actual
rate down to 88 cents.
Part of the budget reductions---
totalling approximately $135,000
---come from inclusion of addi-
ti, onal state aid from legislation
nearing passage in the State Leg-
lature. (Following the board
meeting the bill was passed by
the Senate and now goes back to
the House of Representatives for
concurrence on amendments and
then to Gov. Tom MeC~I- for
signing).
The extra state aid is expected
to amount to approximately five
cents per $1,000 true cash value,
or approximately $84,300.
The additional three-cent re-
duction will came from cuts in
operating funds. The specific cuts
will be left up to Chemeketa
College PreValent Paul Wilmeth
by the board -- with the agree-
ment that no edueational pro-
grams will be eliminated and tlmt
the number of students served
will not be reduced. The budget
is planned ior 1984 full-time
equivalent students for 1971-72.
Wilmeth pointed out that any
cuts will affect programs but he
said cuts will be made in least
vital areas and no programs will
be eliminated.
The operating levy that was
rejected Ap~l 6 totalled $1,696,-
066. The reductions will leave an
Operating levy of appreximately
$1,500,000.

So You Think YO U' VE Had A Hard Day? !
Do you have days when every-
thing seems to go wrong?
Welt, when you read what hap-
pened some years ago to a man
in Barbados, perhaps your prob-
lems will not seem so bad after
all.
His letter to his employers ,ex-
plained what happened when he
went to repair a building darn-.
aged by a "hurricane:
"I rigged up a beam with a pul-
ley at the top of the bti~lding and
hoisbed up a couple of barrels full
of bricks. When I had fixed the
building, there was a lot of ,bricks
left over. I hoisted the barrel
back up again end secured the
line at the bottom, and then went
up and filled the barrel with ex-
tra bricks.
Then I went to the bottom and
cast off the line. Uqnfortunately,
the barrel of bricks was heavier
than I was and before I knew
what was happening, the barrel
started down, jerking me off the
ground.
I decided to hang on and half-
way up I met the barrel coming
down and received a severe blow
on the shoulder. I then co~,tin-
ued to the top, banging my h'ead
against tl~e beam and getting my
finger jammed Jn the pulley.
When the barrel hit the ground
}t bursted its bottom, allowing all
the 'bricks to spill out. I was now
heavier than the barrel and so
started down again at high speed.
Halfway down, I met ~he bar-
rel coming up and received se-
vere injuries to my shins. W~nen
I 'hit the ground I landed ,on the
bricks, getting several painful
cuts from the sharp edges.
At this point I must have lost
my presence of ,mind, because I
let go the line. The barrel then
cafe down giving me another
heavy blow on .the head and pu~-
ring me in the .~hospital.
I respectfully request sic k
leave."
