and non-flammable. The continuous filament fiber of Polar Guard resists
separating and movement in a bag, thus preventing cold spots. Unlike down.
Polar Guard will not mat or clump when wet and it dries quickly. These features
make Polar Guard a safe practical insulation for our damp Oregon climate.

Group driving for 4-J board recall
A drive is underway this week to
collect enough signatures to force
a recall election of five of the
seven District 4-J school board
members. The drive is headed up
by Sherican Fountain, chairer of
the newly-formed Citizens Action
and Advisory Committee (CAAC),
which operates a signature booth
at the Downtown Mall. The
booth, located near the mall
fountain, will be open until 6 p.m.
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday
of this week. CAAC needs 4431
signatures on each of the five
petitions to call a recall.
The five board members under
threat of recall are chairer Sam
Frear, Larry Hughes, Gail Nichol
son, Barbara West and Jonathan
West. The reason given on the
petition for the recall is, "for
refusing to support appropriate
budget reductions in the already
defeated school district (4-J)
budget."
A school tax levy ot more tnan
$21 million dollars was defeated
by Eugene voters May 7 and
again on July 19. Earlier this
month the board met to cut out
about $1 million from the levy.
Most of the cuts came about
because of unexpected revenue
from school district investments
and from the state.
This new tax levy will go to the
voters for approval Sept. 17.
Fountain hopes to have the recall
election at the same time. But the
exact date of the election will be
set by the county elections
division. After CAAC turns in
their signatures —Fountain hopes
to have at least 5,000 Monday
morning —the elections office will
give them to the secretary of state
for certification.
If the secretary of state certifies
the signatures and the county
verifies the signatures the secre
tary calls into question, state law
requires that a recall be held
within 25 days.
Board members will have five
days after the signatures are
verified in which to resign to avoid
a recall election.
Fountain sees no problem in

collecting the required number of
signatures.
"Very frankly, from the response
we've been getting, they're com
ing in in great shape," he says.
He stresses that CAAC has no
argument with the budget itself,
expecially with the $300,000 in
local tax dollars allocated to
kindergartens. His objection to
the board members stems from a
feeling that they are ignoring the
results of two elections.
"One woman (working on the
petition drive) who is in favor of
kindergartens told me, 'My vote
means more to me than my kids
spending half a year in kinder
garten,' " Fountain said.
He hopes to continue the group
after the recall effort regardless of
the results. He notes CAAC has a
two-part name, 'action” and
'advisory.” The action, he says, is
the recall, and after it is finished
Fountain wants the group to act
in its advisory capacity as a carrier
of information from the com
munity to the school board.
The group is now asking for
donations of money and time.
Fountain's home phone number is
