The full amount of bonds author ized have been sold and out of the proceeds the district has construct ed the addition of eight rooms to Kullerton, costing $120,425 42; addi tion of 13 rooms to Riverside, cost ing $170,A.'i6.1A; constructed the cen tral heating plant for Kullerton and senior high schools, costing SSI, 264 06; has constructed the Benson school assembly hall and gymna sium at a cost of 148.953 75, and has purchased S91.S worth of equip ment for Rose school. The sum total expended thus far is $423,648 39, leaving a balance of $471,351.65. Fir Cod Is Barrier Sine th bond election was sub mitted, the board points out that it is impracticable to build the ad ditions to the high school building as originally planned and within the money available for that pur pose, because of a conflict in the change in the building with the fire code of the city of Roseburg. It has thus become necessary to revise the plans by constructing the library arts addition, but this building will not provide the addi tional class rooms necessary for high school purposes . Because of the crowded conditio of the high school campus and the shifting of population of the pupils attending the Kullerton school, it has become desirable to convert the present Kullerton school into a unit of the high school and, to con struct the new Fullertnn school on a sit mor centrally located and with larger grounds, accord ing to the board. Elliott slated that the' present plans for the new Kullerton school will call for alternate bids on a 16, 18 and 20-room building. Basing the estimated costs on the total cost of the 21 -room Riverside school, which, including the new addition, cost about $290,000, the board believes the school of the desired sie can bo constructed from available moneys, and still leave sufficient to provide for the proposed Kdenbower addition. The original plan would provide the district with 41 new rooms. I'nder the revised plans, the dis trict will get from 47 to 49 addition al rooms wilh the same amount of money voted, Klliott aaid.

Portland, Eugene, Corvallia and Medford now of the major cities already are definitely committed. Grants Pass ordered its city at torney to draw up a daylight time ordinance and the council is ex- pected to approve it.

Klamath Kails has its ordinance i up for second reading and ap I proval Is expected. Lakeview is ex I pected to follow Klamath Kails' lead. Bend councilman wll take the matter up at their first April meet ing, but members have : lid in formally that they may approve. Redmond is expected to do what Bend does. Along the coast, Astoria's coun cil will reach a decision April 3. Seaside already has approved the i switch, bo has Oceanlake. I Other Lincoln county towns will 1 try to reach unanimous decision on the question. i The same concerted action is sought in the southern cosstal coun ties. Salem has taken no action one way or the other. The smaller cities of Beaver ton and Milwaukie, adjacent to Port land, have okeyed fast time. Only in eastern Oregon has there been no move and no apparent agi tation, comparable to farmer op position, for the switch. Adoption by cities does not neces sarily mean county-wide fast time. The Jackson county court at Med ford has shown no indication of approval and presumably there will be resistance at other points. The city of Tills mouk will re main on standard time, at least un til a vote is taken on the matter in the May 19 primary election. Til lamook county will not vote. Farm era there seemed determined to remain on standard time. Some thought it would he like two years ago, when the city swung to day light time, but the county re mained on atandard time.

A circuit court jury yesterday said $500. The jury awarded that amount to Jack Hardin, crewman on a B-24 bomber in th South Pacific. The judgment was against Ivan Bell, who Hardin said borrowed the monk and failed to return it. Hardin said he bought the mon key from natives when his plane was shot down near the Philippines in 1945. It made 20 combat mis sions with him. Later, his plane was shot down again and Hardin said he parachuted to safety with the monkey clinging to his shoul der. All other crewmen were kill ed.

Hickenlooper (RIs) said Wednesday night "there will be several more rather startling arrests" of those suspected of violating atomic se curity. "Some of the arrests are in prog ress at this time," the former chair man of the congressional atomic energy committee continued in ad dressing a church meeting. "The evidence is tremendous that secur ity waa being violated." He added that the arrests will be "closer to home than in th Fuchs case." He referred to the case of Dr. Klaua Fuchs who recently was sentenced in England on a charee of passing atomic secrets to Russia. Hickenlooper was Questioned re garding the current loyalty investi gation of state department officials. He is a member of a special Senate committee investigating charges that there are Communists in the State department. "Th charges are very sensa tional and startling," the Senator said. "I have no personal' knowl edge that they are true. They de serve investigation." He said he thought it would be "improper for me to pasa judg ment on people (state department employes) before th evidence is presented." inches.
