The board plans, the chairman says, to place all applications and credentials in the hands of a com mittee of three impartial educators from the University and OES.

He said, has been asking for some time to be relieved at the earliest possible date. The clerk's job cur rently Is on part-time basis. The board now proposed to employ a full-time man to serve in a dual capacity as assistant superinten dent and district clerk. The super intendent thus would be freed from other than supervision over the business affairs of the district and could give his full time to educa tional matters.

"To this end it wel comes the cooperation of interest ed citizens as individuals or as groups." .
