Hail and very big raindrops at the beginning of a thunder­ storm indicate violent winds above-which could reach the earth's surface. When maple syrup fires' smoke rises straight, good weather is likely. High cirrus clouds moving in from the west often herald the arrival of warmer weather. If hay leans to the north­ west, hot weather is ahead. September thunderstorms, especially morning storms, in­ dicate much snow and rain in the coming winter.

Portugal is known for its fine pottery, and Ilda worked fn a factory that made pottery. She gave some of the pots that she had painted to Julie for gifts. There were always great amounts of food served, and Julie observed that the Por­ tuguese drank a lot of wine and ate a great deal of fish, salt and what she thought unusual, steak. One humorous habit she observed, was that persons would be unusually outspoken about someone else's girth, but all the while would continue to eat a great deal themselves.

STAFF PHOTO-WAYNE GAYLORD PARENTS EXPRESS CONCERN OVER BUSING SITUATION (Continued from page 1) cuts earlier this year, these conferences and visitations had to be scaled down. The con­ ference and visitation funds for board members were eliminated; for administrators, cut in half; and for teachers, cut by a third, according to Andreas. The board also adopted a policy change which says that a teacher leaving school because of pregnancy, must use her sick leave days. An­ dreas said this action was to bring board policy in line with recent legislation which views pregnancy as an "illness." The board also passed a wrestling program which will cost an estimated $5,000 (overall) to run, according to Boak. The program includes the purchase of a new wrestling mat for the junior high school which will cost the district about $700. The balance will be made up by the athletic booster club. With an eye towards energy conservation, the board voiced its desire to have the ther­ mostats in the school buildings adjusted and the heating. system fixed where necessary. HER WEALTH...
