MU SIN" N? MEANDERIN" (Continued from page 1) aggressive, demanding boys have their eye on a "plane with a brain". Never mind the price. Christmas comes but once a year, and somebody told the kids, "You can't take it with you". To be sure you can't! In fact, most of us hardly see enough of it to enjoy here and now. In the spirit of the season, this may be .the ideal time to evaluate the many requests for money to assist worthwhile causes aiding our fellow man. Several have come to our desk - Christmas Seal and Easter Seal among the latest. There are many mofre. One of the most appealing is the familiar look and sound of the Salvation Army as totally dedicated volunteers man the iron kettles in the hope of ad­ ding brightness to the holiday season and then continuing the routine work y^ar 'round. Demands are usually greater than most of us can meet at Christmas time. But of one thing we can be sure, whatever we give buoys up our own spirit at least as much as the person who benefits. After all, isn't this what the season is all about? A special treat is offered art lovers through the holiday season. Local artists will be exhibiting their works at 3609 W. Elm street fronj now until Dec. 31. Plan to stop in and see the abundance of talent in our community., K.A.F. that it was possible the district might lose a valuable teacher, or administrator, if this restriction was made. Another question which resulted in a difference of opinion was on professional travel and educational con­ ferences. Mrs. Alvary ex­ pressed her opinion that when money is budgeted for travel, the school administrators and area chairmen should have the privilege of making the selection of those persons who will most benefit the school by their attendance. Clint Claypool and Lloyd Freund countered with the argument that some faculty members could be favored by this procedure, with the same ones selected time after time. After some discussion, it was decided to delete that part of the policy which specifies particular guidelines for the expenditure of this money. In the future, the budgeted funds will be used according to need as determined by the individual school administrators and area chairmen. Business Manager Michael R. Kelley was appointed to prepare a tentative budget for the district for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1973, and ending June 30, 1974. Mrs. Alvary and Freund were named to the Budget com­ mittee. A motion was approved to increase bus drivers' daily rate of pay from $9 to $9.50 per day, effective Jan. 1. This action was in coniunction with the recent approval of District 15. The board also agreed, as did District 15, to a compromise figure of $63.86 for the tran­ sportation of students. Tran­ sportation Director Glen Blank said he thought he would be able to arrange bus routes so that there will be little discrepancy in the cost load of the two districts. Board President James Althoff noted that he had received several complaints from persons residing in the James street area, near the bus parking lot. They said drivers started their busses at 6 o'clock in the morning, then left the motors running loudly to warm up. Residents of the neigh­ boring area said they were unable to sleep. Some threatened to take the matter up with the city if it was not corrected. The board had no immediate solution. It was suggested that possibly there would be a need to change the location of the bus parking lot. VANDALISM, BURGLARY UNDER INVESTIGATION (Continued from page 1) Raymond Sokolowski^ of 6315 State Park road, Spring Grove, reported to county authorities that his 22 caliber revolver was stolen from his home sometime since Dec. 10. The gun was described as a blue steel H & R model 922 with a 6 inch barrel and walnut grips. NEW PROGRAMS INVOLVE SCHOOL DISTRICT 15 (Continued from page 1) It was emphasized that he will not be in West campus in the role of disciplinarian, en­ forcer of rules or other normal police officer functions while performing his duties as police community relations officer. The third report by Mr. Swantz related to the program i n v o l v i n g S E D O M . Representatives of this Special Education organization are meeting with several high school superintendents to explor' the need and possibility of establishing an alternative high school for 14- and 15-year old students who, for many feasons, find it difficult to adjust to a normal secondary school environment. 1 He pointed out that every fiigh school in the county is finding it increasingly difficult lo provide successful ex­ periences for a small number of students who eventually •must be expelled from school. 3t is the feeling of project promoters that a completely ^different environment and ^educational program, with ^intensive counseling, is ;necessary. • The local superintendent, '.who serves on the advisory ! committee of both the SEDOM ;and Break-Away programs, said there are still many ! questions to be resolved on the former project. Action was taken on numerous recommended ac- tions concerning the existing policy for certified personnel. One of the most important concerned married couples teaching in the same school system. With one negative vote, it was agreed that this should be allowed, but a couple would not be employed where one is in administration and the other in teaching because of a possible conflict of interest. Mrs. Kathryn Alvary cast the one dissenting vote.
