To do this, said Tylka, people need to show their concern by signing his peti tion Needed are 1000 signatures, which he said he hopes to secure soon Tylka said he believes if this many people would show support, politicians and the representatives of various agencies who by law have the responsibility to protect these areas, would begin doing so Tylka said the petition w ill not be used to place the issue on the ballot for a vote of the public Instead, it would provide a way to measure support for en vironmental concerns in the M t Hood area School’s extra-duty positions filled reported the contracts for Jeanine Boldt and Tom Well were rejected because they had resigned Boldt and Well claim they didn’t resigned Boldt has called the board’s action “vindic tive,” a result of over nine months of often intense contract negotiations M ark Hamby will be the head basketball coach He w ill be assisted by Kent M cKinnon, a pastor at Chapel of the Hills M cK in The positions of boys basketball coach and a fte r school dram a instructor were recently awarded by the Welches School Board Two teachers who have filled the positions in the past were denied the ex tra- duty contracts Both were negotiators during the last c o n trac t ta lk s for the W e lc h e s E d u c a tio n Association In a statement prepared by the b o a rd it was non is a certified teacher The basketball team has a 12-game season, which ends Jan 13. Eileen Stanley, a sixth grade teacher, was ac cepted as the after-school dram a instructor A play has been s c h e d u le d s o m e tim e b e fo re Christmas vacation The students w ill tak e six weeks to prepare for the play Photos to be retaken School pictures for the e n tire student body of Welches Grade School will have to be retaken, due to a piece of lint on the camera lens The new photo session is scheduled for this Friday at the school, said Gary Dietderich, vice principal Dietderich said there will be no additional costs for the pictures He said the pictures should still be ready for distribution prior to Christmas vacation so !! GIVE-A WAY!! they can be given away for presents, as o rig in a lly planned Due to M t. Hood’s "n a tional prominence as a recreational area, every citizen should have a voice when the possible degrada tion of those v a lu a b le resources are at stake," said Tylka T h e re a re a lr e a d y enough laws on the books to protect the corridor, said Tylka He said such state agencies as the D epart ment of Fish and W ildlife, the D epartm ent of E n vironmental Quality, the Division of State Lands and th e W a t e r R e s o u rc e s D e p a rtm e n t a re under funded but do look upon the area as a high enough priority to enforce these laws. The T ylka s’ petition is re questing that these agen cies, as well as such federal agencies as the A rm y Corps of Engineers, the U S.
