for the
coming year will be at stake
today (Thursday) in the annual
budget election.
Polls will be open from 2-8
p.m. at the various high schools
within the district.
The college is seeking ap
proval of a >496,376 special
levy. This will mean roughly
2.9 mills per year in taxes
or about >9 per >10,000
assessed valuation.
The college district
wan
created at a special election
last June and since then, voters
have approved an >87,310 levy
tor organizational purposes
plus a >2,225,000 building levy
spread over five years.
Thursday’s vote, then, re
presents the first large op
erational levy.
It has drawn opposition in
some quarters as too large,
especially since the college has
yet to open its doors.
However, the college board
OREGON MUSEUM Of SCIENCE & INDUSTRY will benefit from an auction due at the

for the benefit.

levy as entirely

under the circumstances.
“The levy Is predicted on 750
students,’’ a spokesman said,

“In fact, 750 students maybe
an entirely conservative es
timate but we had to pick some
starting point and build from
that. If, on the other hand, en
rollment should fall below ex-
pectations--a
most unlikely
possibility—the
money,
of
course, would not be spent and

BACKWARD OR FORWARD is the question In the
mind of Mrs. Joyce Grokett, as she ponders the switch
to daylight saving time. Of course it's relatively simple:
if you’re going to save daylight, you steal an hour on
the clock. Thus, at midnight Sunday, April 24, it’s not
really midnight but 1 a.m. So, should you wish to be
on time for church, Sunday school, or your game of golf,
Sunday, April 24, set your clock one hour ahead, when
you retire. You will then be keeping up with the balance
of the states, on fast time,
