The 11 rooms would be built at Fairfield. Estimated cost of these jobs, Aspirant Plans Counsel Bill Florence Reed Cook, candidate for state representative, will submit a bill to provide profes sional counseling services for problem children and adults in Lane County, if she is elected Nov. 2, she told the Register-Guard.

School Board sev eral weeks ago requested the superintendent to hold meetings with representatives of the com munity to determine sentiment toward a possible election. Vot ers of the district must authorize any bond issues which are to be sold by the board. The board will consider the recommendations of the groups at its next meeting, which will likely be held next week accord ing to the superintendent. George M. Petersen that the Wednesday night group recommend a half-million dollar bond issue be called and that part of the bond fund, if approv ed, be used to complete the Fair field School as an educational unit.
