A total o f 19 libraries are sched­

'February 4th school boycott and (he
board’s refusal to adopt ihe community's

confidence in the current board. Parents
and other citizens have no reason to be­
lieve that the present board will berespon

the opportunity for some highly qualified,
committed community activists for make
a run for the all-volunteer board.

schools of excellence. We recommend
