A Vote fo r education
We support the move by the Sandy
high school budget com m ittee
Monday night to re-submit to the
voters the sam e budget which was
defeated in the May 3 election.
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.

"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

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
