Presnell, 23» of 933 W. Belmont avenue. County authorities were contacted last weekend, and with Woodstock Chief of Police George C. Meyers, went to Chicago to see if they could identify school property recovered following the arrest of the two Chicagoans. A.fter checking serial numbers, it jw"as found that some of the items were among those missing from Marian high school. Recovered and returned to the county were an electric typewriter, an adding machine, slide projector, floodlight rack, walkie talkie sets, and a J.6 mm projector. At the time of the Marian burglary, it was estimated that $1,200 in money and items was taken. ' The intruders had chopped off locks on doors and cabinets and rooms were left in a state of disarray.

SRA develops and publishes new types of Instructional materials in basic subjects for elementary schools and high schools. The company specializes in building modern learning systems, including its well known Reading Laboratories. In the area of testing, SRA's activities include the develop- . ment and publication of a wide variety of standardized intelligence, aptitude and achievement tests and administration of several national testing programs, including the National. Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test. iSRA's materials in all these fields are widely approved by qducatorsj and are extensively^< ised>Hiroughout the country. Mr. Watson said: "We at IBM are very pleaded to have Science Research Associates join our organization. By combining resources, we believe that, together we will be able to make increasingly important contributions to the growing educational need's of our country and other nations." T^Ir. Spencer said: "Over ine past twenty-five years, Science Research Associates has devoted its efforts to improving the quality of education by supplying teachers with better types of learning systems. In joining IBM, we expect to do an even better job." think that the holiday spirit has permeatea the hearts of everyone.

IT PA ADVi School Bond Votes Show Some Gain In Passage Ov^r 1962 With school elections of-all- types -- for: educational' rate increases and building purposes particularly -- prevalent in our own community during the past year, it is interesting to note how other such elections were greeted throughout the state. Educational rate elections showed the largest gain of all bond and tax referenda this year with an increase of 22 per ^cent. Of the 159 total, 53 per cent were 'successful, a gain of 8 per cent over last year's figure o£ 4H. . Although the total number of' referenda increased by approximately- one-sixth, the percent of successful'school'elections edged from 61 per cent in 1962 to 62 per eerit this past year. In 1963, 225 of 361 elections were-successful; in 1962, 189 of 309 passed: The 1963 increase is the first in five years, following a decline from 79 per cent |n 1959 to 61 per cent in 1962. Least successful were the building rate referenda.1. Of ^18""elections; held in the past twelve months, only 39 per cent were'lsuccessful, nearly 20 per cent under the '62 mark. Bond elections for new construction gain voter approval -- 83 per cent in 1963 -- more often than building or educa-t tional tax rates. This is particularly true if existing school facilities fre to be enlarged. v The No. 1 problem of pubnc education in the next twenty years will not be the curriculum, programmed instruction or teaching machines, educators tell us, and not even the shortage of classrooms and teachers. The big question seems to be whether citizens "Will support the kind of public education deemed necessary in today's society. " Lakemoor Lad Shot In Foot Thursday (Continued from Page 1) Kelly was a distance from the others adrift expecting h. rabbit to appear irom behind some brush, and so had his gun ready. At this point he tripped on a. root, causing the gun to discharge. with the .410 load hitting the top of his left foot.
