TO RECEIVE 89% OF BUS Benefits Of Summer Programs Announced Ai Board Meeting Indication of the tightness of state fUnds was reflected in word received by Harrison school that only 89 per cent of its transportation claim would be paid, rather than the usual 100 per cent. This means that School District 36 will receive S3,350 instead of $3,725 reimbursement from the state for bus transportation, Supt Merl F. Thomas reported at the last board meeting. In previous v9ears the full amount of the transportation claim usually lias been paid. Similar cutbacks in the state transportation reimbursement probably will effect other districts that operate buses. The district's transportation budget is about $6,500. Any deficit would possibly come from the educational budget to cover cost of leasing and Operating two buses for the year. Tt was conjectured that unless the next legislature votes deficiency appropri a t i o n s to Belated Anniversary Dinner Helen and Eugene Kraskiewicz celebrated their belated twenty-eighth anniversary last Sunday.

They discussed methods used to help the students, and beneficial effects they expect to see from these students in their subsequent school years.

George Guetzloff reported on his attendance at a six weeks' summer session of the National Science Foundation Institute. He was selected as one of sixty-five from some 700 applicants throughout the nation for this particular series, that covers three summer sessions. He teaches science at Harrison, and suggested incorporating selected subjects into the Junior high school curriculum. Use Federal Funds Federal funds help subsidize the Institute program, and Harrison district offers incentive pay for the six hours of college credits earned, these leading to a Master's degree. However, because of an overlap in the dates of the Institute, the last \yeek in August conflicts with opening of Harrison school. Guetzloff made arrangements for a substitute teacher until his return. This was taken under consideration. However, it was noted that if Harrison school started its year after Labor Day, this type of conflict would not exist.

It was recommended that the program culminate with A track and field day competition in spring, for which awards would Introduce New School Method A new audio-lingual method of teaching Spanish has been initiated at Marian Central by Sister M. Luanne. This new method was demonstrated in the Spanish Institute at Notre Dame this summer, which Sister Luanne attended for the seven-week period.

At the first meeting with the. Marian student body on Friday, Sept. 21, Mr. Forbish introduced a new school song which he composed for Marian.
