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 Budget Committee, Cecil Will, Jim Crawford, Kenny Hunter, Zone May; Ann Evers, Dorothy Pomeroy, Francis Dummer, Can- di Sullivan, Bob Collins, Phil Hawman, Harold Lyon, B o b Stockhoff and Marvin Lorenzen. 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. PAST NOB'LE GRANDS CLUB HOSTED BY M~RS.

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." Three Doyen residents and art Amity resident wer injured last week in two separate auto acci- dents near Dayton. Mrs. Melissa S.
