The new election will take place on Friday, May 28 with the only polling place being at the high school. Of the 305 persons who voted against the budget not one showed up at the budget hearing Monday night. If one did then he must have remained silent. Of those attending the meeting, most were school people with only about six other citizens of Sandy present. The basic reason given for re submitting the same budget is the very important one of not hurting the educational program at the school. All the committee members agreed that if they cut the budget the educational programs at Sandy high would move backwards and not improve. Remember when you are getting ready to vote on May 28 that the education of our children is at stake. At this meeting we were also glad to see the Dad’s Club and the Teachers Association step up to support the budget by volunteering their services to get people to vote. These two organizations will conduct a phone call campaign to remind people to vote and also will have transportation available for getting persons to the polls. It’s too bad some organization did not do this for the May 3 election because according to many persons at the meeting Monday night there were a lot of “yes” votes who stayed home or forgot to vote. warm and clear weather has given the Sandv-Hoodland residents a feeling that summer is on its way. Post Photo SANDY IS A town divided by its main streets as can be seen from this picture taken from the air last Friday. The recent F irew o rks set for July 4 CLAMS BUTTER DIP Youth charged "Pole-llution" in Sandy During the recent Clean Up Week in Sandy several efforts were made to improve the looks of the city. In cluded in this was the cleaning up of the old wrecking yard along Main St. and the remodeling going on at Sandy Baptist Church. The city truck also made pick ups on S aturday helping the local residents with the cleaning of their yards. There were several other im provement» made, but the clean up was spoiled some by the new “pole- llution” along Proctor St. Neil Jack so n from P o rtlan d G eneral E le c tric stated a t the Chamber of Commerce meeting on Tuesday that his firm was not too pleased with the look of the new poles in downtown Sandy either. We know that there is a need for these new poles due to the new sub station at Welches but we wonder why the city council did not have PGE either go underground or around Sandy with the new wires.
