PAGE TWO ' Crook County's School Problem Is Discussed Prineville, Dec. 7 Some ot jections to a proposed issue of around $471,000, the legal maxi mum, in Ootids to construct a new Crook county high school building were advanced at a con ference yesterday afternoon be tween representatives of civic, public, agricultural and patriotic groups and county school author ities, including Superintendent C. M. Sly and the county school board. The discussions in ' the main admitted an emergency that will exist here permanently be cause of lack of buildings for classes, which already are over crowded existing facilities. The boiled down sentiment of the gathering was in the main expressed by R. P. McRae, Prine ville mayor, who represented the chamber of commerce of the community at the conference. McRae said that he had been in formed in a meeting the past year of the League of Oregon Cities that Oregon could expect, as a result of the general trend of migration to the Pacific coast, an increase of 35 per cent in pop ulation in the next five years. He said that he had written to the league's executive secretary, Herman Kehrlie, when the matter of the local school expansion was presented, to ask if the figures of increased population remain the same. Kehrlie, he said had re plied to state that it is now esti mated that the increase will reach 42 per cent in the next five years. Interest Rates May Climb McRae referred to objections to construction of the new high school now because of a possible substantial decrease in construc tion within a few years. These objections proposed that the emergency be met by temporary installations, such as quonset huts. McRae declared, however, that no material savings could be expected by postponement of the permanent construcflon, pre dicting that any decrease in build ing cost would be offset by a higher interest rate on a sale of bonds. Superintendent Sly In com menting on increased attendance at school here, said that only 11 new students were at the high school In 1947, with 89 at the grade schools. This fall, however, the increase has been 80 at the high school and 244 at the grade schools. The increase to be ex pected from graduated eighth graders next year, it was declar ed, will make it Impossible to ac commodate the students at the old high school, which now has an enrollment of 329 at a build ing Intended to accommodate less than 250.

'I1 , . m tn WHY MOTHERS GET GRAY ,m Hollywood Dress Designers Turning Out Fantastic Gowns By Virginia Macl'hcrson (UnlU-d TreMi Hollywood Corropontlrnt) Hollywood, Dec. 7 Ui There's i depression on in Hollywood, but the dress designers haven't heard about it, yet. They're all knock ing themselves out whipping up duds they know won't ever get worn. These screwball concoctions are expensive, too. But they get the designers' names in the papers along with a picture of a pretty gill wearing same and tnat s an that they would suffice for years to come, now have a total en rollment of 1,180. Seek More Figures Wulter Merrltt and Roy Schn- abel of the Powell Butte district, who said that district is in a way like a Cinderella, its high school students attending the Redmond union high school In Deschutes county, and its grade school ad ministered under the county unit system of Crook, declared they thought more effjrt should have been made by the school board to secure figures on temporary measures to meet the emergency. C. C. Vice, who has served on school budget boards, warned against too heavy bonded indebt edness, which, he declared, recall ing the days of the depression in the 1930's, may result in default through delinquent taxes. Laballe Coles, chairman of the school board, who presided at the meeting, said that the board had been presented with five pros pective sites at outlying suburb an areas of the city. He said the present standards of . the state department of education rqquire a site of 15 to 20 acres for a sclvjol such its is proposed for LTlnevule. Others who participated In dis cussions included Mrs. M. D. Bar ney, former mayor; Bruno Relf, stockman; Harold llenmngcr, dis trict manager of the Pacific Pow. er & Light company; and Joe Tal holer, on the staff of the Ochoco national forest office. Other members of the school board are Cliff Will, Ernie Moore, Dietrich Cordes and A. D. Amund- son.

Because the studios nave fired all the shapely starlets who used to pose for "cheesecake." t hey're not around to mi tnose skimpy bras and diaper bathing suits of tne pine-up era, and you can be darned sure the $5,000-a- week queens aren't baring any midriffs or calves. But gals like Loretta Young and Irene Dunne aren't above posing In a wild-eyed hat or a fantastic gown as long as they're more or less covered up. And that's where the daffy designs come in. Only the Beginning Remember that picture on all the front pagee a while back show ing a leggy blonde wearing a "Venetian blind" dress? That was only the beginning. Rene Huberts whipped up a dress with a walkie-talkie tele phone hooked Into the belt. Get Betty Grable to pose in that and It s a million bucks worth of free publicity for Mr. Hubert all over the world. Keneth Hopkins just came up with a sailor hat that has a big, olack spider dangling over the brim. The spider Is gnawing on a snake and you'll be seeing it on Barbara Bel Ueddes head any day now. Meredith Peterson is working on a sarong nightgown and Bon nie Lashin has a skirt made en tirely of leopard skins. Marie Windsor Is on the verge of breaking out in newsprint with a cellophane dress you .can, sec rlgnt tnrouglL. fahe wears skln tight scanties underneath and it's all the Idea of Elols Jenssen, who calls It, the "frankfurter look." llyana's contribution to all this Is the "planter shoulders." These have aluminum flower pots fitted into the padding and you, too, can look like a Salvador Dali painting with everything from African violets to trailing Ivy. Kur designer Al Teitelbaum's always good for mink slacks or ermine-lined brassieres. Says goofy pictures like that sell more $10,000 coats than anything.
