t TK Nw-RtIw, ReMburg, Or. Thur., Jon. 17. 1952 Need Of School, Expansion Poses Elkton Problem An expected 100 itudent en rollment in future yean t Elkton uinh CIiaaI hmm hrniltfht exrjan- ion problem to the district' ( ichool board. , ' Kenneth F. Barneburg, county ichool superintendent, laid there are enough younKsteri in Elkton Grade School to bring future high , ichool enrollment to 100. At pre lent some 60 itudenti attend the high ichool. At a public meeting Monday, the ichool board recommended immed iate purciiose m F' ; adjacent to the school property and proposed two expansion solutions. The meeting was attended by Barneburg; A. L. Beck, assistant building consultant, and Richard Sorick, auperintendent of second ary education both of the State Department of Education. The first proposed solution In volvei the construction of two new classrooms and a number of re visions to the present building Thii would provide for the addi tion of a home economics depart ment. Cost of this program would range from 10,000 to $50,000, ac cording to Eugene Fisher, chair man of the Elkton school board. The second proposed method would be to construct a new gym nasium and convert the present gym to classrooms and a manual training ihop. Thii proposal also providei for a new heating plant and a new kitchen and cafeteria. Cost would be some $15,000 for revision of the present structure, plui $150,000 to $160,000 for con itruction of the gym, Fisher said. Also under consideration is the addition of one new teacher, bring ing the staff to six instructors. A district election to decide on the purchase of the plot of ground will be held Jan. 28. Voting on new construction proposals will be held later. Rivflrsdole To Vote Again On School Isiu (Continued from Page 1) facilitiei at Senior High to ac commodate these students for the future or leave their respective districts the problem of caring for them. Improvement "Most" Something will have to be done to improve facilities at Roscburg High to accommodate the enroll ment, according to two executives from the State Department of Ed ucation who have just visited here. On Jan. 10 and 11, George Scr ino, aupervisor of physical educa tion and health for the state of Oregon, visited the school and ob served that facilitiei for physical education were very inadequate, according to Elliott Serino noted that the classes were without sufficient space to meet state standards. The dressing area is insufficient for half the IUaril!9 in UIO unnj waia. mov. part of the space is in the end of the corridors, where naked boys . and girls may be exposed to hall , traffic because of iwinging doori. Fire regulations prohibit these Joori being closed by locks. Thii means, he said, that proposed ad ditions to the Senior High plant are needed now. If allocations of materials are made immediately, it will be the fall of 1953 before the additioni could be ready for occupancy. Mr. Serino apoke highly of the instructional itaff and their spirit in view of the Inadequacy of the plant, said Elliott. Supervisor Comments Henry Sorick, lupcrvisor of sec ondary education, is in the county this week working with the county ' school superintendent and visiting high achooli. He ipent Jan. 16 in Roieburg Senior High. He also expressed concern over the inadequacy of the present plant relative to ihopi and mechanical courses and additional space need ed for academic classes. Hii reaction wai that any itu dent who is to be planned for in additional building space should definitely mane ii nnuwn io board of district 4 that they wish to be accommodated in the future. Elliott said the written report! from both these lupervisors will be filed with the county ichool iuperintendent'1 office and the District 4. board in the very near future.

Kf "OlfONVILlI SCALE Or MILES Hi twiii'ml ' ' LtGtND ALTERNATE ROAD ROUTES SURVEYED Preliminary loca tion work has been done to establish comparative data on al ternate proposed roads between Sutherlin and Lone Rock, re ports Wallace Hector, county road engineer. The above map, prepared by Mr. Hector for The News-Review, shows the ap proximate routes of the two roads, concerning which there is a current controversy. The Sutherlin-Oakland community is urging construction of the so-called "Short Doute," by way of Bradley and Gassy creeks to connect with the Calapooia road. The county court has given tentative approval to the "River Route," between Lone Rock and Wilbur, with a cut-off leading directly into Sutherlin by way of Cooper creek. The "River Route," Hector reports, actually is shorter by 1.1 miles than the so-called "Short Route," while opening up 26 miles of ter ritory not now served by a road. Differential in cost is not great, Hector says, as construction., of the "Short Route" would involve extensive improvements to the Calapooia road In addition to the new road building involved.

Access Roads Necessity Stressed By Forester - (Continued from Page 1) Sufficient timber was available in more accessible locations. Roads Become Imparative "Within the last 35 years, how ever, we have fought two major wars and are engaged in a third neriod of emergency. The demands on our timber supplies have been great, and u we are now to sus tain local economies and have sup plies of timber available for future emergencies it is going to laKe a plan - wise development of a road system into these areas. In stating the Forest Service policies, Stone noted that the pol icy called for "devoting the land to the most productive use for the permanent good of the whole people and not for the temporary benefit of Individual or companies." De centralized administration, he said is another principle. "We are attempting to make timber, water, recreation, wild life and forage of the national for est of this region available for use under such controls as are nec essary to provide for perpetuation of the forest and for protection of all resources." Football Picture Draws Comment Of Hungarian It seems there comei time when football is not football. That is the conclusion to be drawn from a letter of an Aus trian boy who viewed a picture of a football game entered in the International Art Project last year by Lorraine Ditchcn, Roseburg Junior High School student. Here, in part, is what Poil Lud wi; wrote: "You sent us a painting by the Junior Red Cross in which a kind of playing ball is to be aee. You write that your boys like to play football. But this game is not foot ball. The boya have helmets on their heads. The ball is not round, it has the shape of an egg. On the back of the playground there is a tribune." Poil is an eighth grade student living in Obcrwart, a small town near the Hungarian frontier. Lorraine entered the painting through sponsorship of the Junior Red Cross chapter.
