Economy, But
r avored by Most of School
Board Candidates, Learned
Asked yesterday for his plat
form in the school board race,
which will end with the school
election June 19, Dr. H. H.
dinger, present chairman and
candidate for re-election, stated:
"I'll stand on my record. If
the people want me to, I'll serve
another term".
Dr. dinger has served four
terms and part of another on the
board, or slightly over 13 years.
He is generally conceded to be
one of the best informed persons
in the district concerning school
affairs, and finances in particu
lar. In his capacity as chairman
of the board, he has overseen re
ductions In the budget the past
j two years and in the tentative
one for 1933-34.

have the support of the younger
citizens who last year sponsored
the candidacy of Kenneth C.
Perry.
"It is false economy when we
get past giving the best in edu
cation to our children", Mrs.
Spears said. "We should econ

Minier, stated:
If elected school director. I
shall give the schools to the beet
of my ability a business admin
istration. I believe in maintain
ing the schools as best we can,
yet economically, not crippling

Mr. Minier is a native of Ma
rion county and attended Salem
schools, as did Mrs. Spears. He
was for 10 years connected with
the United States national bank
and since 1922 has engaged in
the abstracting business. He is

Mr. Leege declared. "I will utind

means can be devised to lower

of the teachers' pay".
While Mr. Legge declined to
reveal how he believed further
retrenchment could be achieved
in the school district's budget, he
answered, "It it apparent that
our tax levy during 'he last five
years has more than doubled
what it was 20 years ago and
tne. enrollment has only increased

The Salem Madrigal club is
without doubt a beautiful credit
to Salem. A chorus of women's
rolees offers difficulty in achiev
ing balance so that each part may

beauty and then ba combined into
a well blended whole. Prof. Hoh-
