PAGE 9 - PLAINDEAX.EH-FRIDAY, JUNE 21, 1974 HIGH SCHOOL BOARD MUSIN' AND STUDIES PRIORITIES MEANDERIN' OUT SIDE BU DG ET v (Continued from page 1) (Continued from page 1) school expects to have only six students attending SEDOM classes next year. Because the costs to county schools are based on an average, according to enrollments, there will be a heavy burden on District 156. Adding an annual assessment asked by SEDOM for a building operation fund of $2 per student in the district, and raising the existing annual administrative assessment from $2 to $3 would raise the annual assessment in this one district from $4,200 to $10,500. Mrs. Alvary asserted that she would like to see SEDOM project plans over the next five years. Approval was given to employing Raymond Mathis as instructor in Health Education at East campus. He will fill the vacancy created when Gary Collins changed his teaching assignment to fill the Driver Education vacancy. Supt. Swantz noted that there are sixteen more teaching positions to be filled but indicated there should be no problem as 500 applications have been processed. In non-certified personnel, the resignation of Mrs. Mary Murphy, educational assistant at East campus, was accepted. The board received copies of a report of William Dodds regarding the evaluation of the first year program in which McHenry County college has conducted adult education classes in West campus. The college pays the district about $6,000 annually for rental, plus summer custodial fees. Approval was given to enter into the Title IIESEA project in the amount of $3,537.60 to purchase library and audio­ visual instructional materials, 100 per cent of which is reimbursed by the state. Numerous bids were accepted as follows: General supplies, $2,813.20; musical instruments, $1,156.36; audio­ visual, $3,424.92; furniture, $3,162.63; physical education s u p p l i e s , $ 1 , 4 1 4 . 8 1 ; typewriters, calculators and ribbons, $10,020.25; lumber, $2,439.20; industrial arts, $7,333.02; science, $2,283.53; art supplies, $2,150.93 Vern Peterson, dean of boys at East campus, was present to discuss a proposal from the East campus administrative team concerning creating a student smoking area at that school. The administration said the dxittroversy of the idea was recognized, but agreed that the problem of students smoking will not be corrected with , existing procedures. To a question from a board member, Peterson agreed that the lunch mod might present a problem in discipline. He explained that an East campus administrative team report indicated such a smoking area would be a good idea. Non- smokers among students object to smoke in washrooms at the present time. Someone in the audience asked if the school had considered what it would do if marijuana should be legalized. It was indicated this problem would need to be met when it arose. Mrs. Alvary and another board member, Howard Weiss, voiced opposition to the establishment of such an area. After more discussion, the board decided not to take a vote on the issue at this time. Member Ed Neumann reported on recent tours of both campuses taken by the Building committee. Inspection revealed that improvements and repairs would run $15,510, plus the cost of work on the roof. The cost includes two new office rooms above the entrances to West campus. The present offices will be converted to classrooms. A study will be made on the for Donna Humann, who will have the backing of her community as she enters county competition in August. In addition to these two strictly summer events, a meeting was held at West campus concerning street improvements by special assessment as they affect area subdivisions. So busy was the evening that we missed a dinner prepared by the Girl Scouts of Valley view day camp. These young gals are known for their efficiency in whatever they undertake, and missing one of their special dinners was a source of real regret. What we need are more days in the week!

After the war, Tucker entered advertising as an art director, a career he followed until television became a reality. Then he grew with the industry as an art director producer in the employ of the world's leading advertising agency. He produced both live and animated television commercials. Tucker, largely a self-taught watercolor painter, has traveled and worked with nationally-known artists for the past four years since retiring from the commercial world. He is now doing what he dreamed of doing back in the '30's - painting watercolors that are both professional and enchanting to the viewer (a new approach to color, using the complete color spectrum in its full-value range is a key to both mood and story-telling).
