NEWS-REVIEW, ROSEBURS. OREGON. FRIDAY, JANUARY 21, 1949 THREE Canyonville School Budget Explained By Head of Board An explanation of items appear ing in the School District No. 8 'budget to be voted on Wednesday, Jan. 26, at Canyonville, was of fered by the district board there today. James L. Zumwalt, chair man, said the explanation would ; serve as an "answer" to criticism of the budget in a recent Canyon ville publication. All items of operational cost in the budget, down to those for canital outlay, are paid for by the Douglas County Rural School Board, Zumwalt said. The mill age levied for taxes represents the average levy of all districts in the county. The rural board advocates that a music teacher be hired when one can be found and worked Into the general teaching schedule. Such a teacher could teach other subjects besides music, where qualified, or an exchange may be worked with a neighboring dis trict, Zumwalt said. When this budget had been made up, the committee had not received the estimate of its share of the basic school fund from the County Rural School Board. "We estimated we would receive $12, 250 and have since received in formation that we will receive $19,107.40," Zumwalt explained. 'This reduces the tax levy from $75,578 to $68,721, which is only $4,631.19 more than the budget levy for the fiscal year 1947-48," he added. "It is necessary that the school have an assistant principal to lake charge of the school when the principal is '.bsent. As the schools are small, it is not con sidered necessary to hire two separate principals for the ele mentary and high schools. Additional Slta Needed "Even if a union district Is formed, a separate school will not be established during the next school year," Zumwalt said. "The budget allots money for a school site, which is necessary for the district to purchase. In the event that a union district is not formed, the Canyonville dis trict will still need a site for addi tional school facilities. "If a union district is formed, our district may sell the site to the union district, "The question of .purchasing the Bill Stock place has been raised at various times. The : its' . "S. "TOO Prtty" That wai the reason given by Associate City Counselor Roy A. Fish when he asked dismissal of careless driv ing charges against 23-year-old Jean H. Klein, St. Louis dress designer. Besides, he said, wit nesses were lacking. The judge dismissed the case. The city charged Miss Klein's car rammed a fire plug at a street intersection. She claimed the car skidded on wet pavement. (AP Wirephoto.) school board has been informed by Mrs. Stock that the place is not for sale under any considera tion," the Canyonville board chair man stated. Criticism of the budget at Can yonville this week, Zumwalt said, was made by Lawrence J. Boyle, former principal, and Mrs. Viola Anderson, former school director. Zumwalt declared that the criti cism was not justified. ( Boyle recently entered a suit in Circuit Court to recover $4,200 allegedly due on a year's contract he had signed with the district to serve as principal for the cur rent school year. He charged, in his complaint, that he entered upon his duties as principal July 1 and was dismissed "without cause" July 19.) "We now have a ' standard school and have complied with every request of the State Board of Education In order to remain standard," Zumwalt declared. "We have done our part to have a good school and we are confi dent that the people will support our program and approve our budget by voting 'yes' on Jan. 26."
