County School Superintendent J. IC Culiivan Is a supporter of the county unit system of Bchool management, a plun which bus been adopted In many eastern slates. Tho county unit sys tern pluces all elementary schools of tho enmity under the direct control of a county educational board aud a su perintendent. Mr. Ca?avun believes thut Oregon finally will adopt this plan. Mr. Caluvan discussed tho county unit system Wednesday afternoon, aft er spending two days working on pe titions presented to the school district boundary board. The 'superintendent compared the management of tho county scborrig to tho mamiKoment of a largo corpora lion. 'Uesponsibillty would not bo scuttercd among scores ot boards and individuals In the control of a cor poration," he snld. "On tho contrary, the management of a successful cor poration Is centralized nnd one man or one board Is In comploto charge. "I be'levo that there should be nn oducntlonal board which would con trol all the elementary schools of the county and act with a county super intendent. This board would have complete power In school affairs, und tho district system would be abol ished." Mr. Caluvan also believes that a bet ter method of apportioning county and state funds among tho districts could bo worked out. S. P.
