Only, of Oregon Library EUGENE, OREGON School building program at stake on Tuesday 5 polling places will be open from 2 to 8 p.m. By ll S. Grant Bulletin Staff Writer Polls will be open at five schools in the Bend Administra tive District Tuesday, for voters to cast ballots on the school bond issue. If passed, it will provide for a new elementary school on Bear Creek Road, continuation of the High School building pro gram, and interior remodeling at Junior High. At present, the district is oper ating with facilities short of the requirements for some 375 stu dents. Off-school property is rent ed for this year, use is being made of space not intended for classrooms, and several grades in tlie elementary school are on a double-shift schedule. Three hun dred thirty-three pupils are at tending school half days. The overcrowding is attributed to the continuing effects of the post-war baby boom, and to a lesser degree, the influx of new comers from other areas. It was anticipated before the present high school was built. Figures Studied Enrollment figures are studied carefully, to time the building ad ditions as they are needed. The '63 water situation satisfactory The 1962 irrigation water sup plies were satisfactory to all users in Crook, Jefferson and Deschutes counties served from reservoir supplies, W. T. (Jack) Frost, in charge of Oregon water surveys, reported from Portland today. In Crook County, water from the new Prineville Reservoir cou pled with a nearly full supply In Ochoco provided adquato water for all users. Excellent carryover supplies are adequate for the next season. Flow of the Deschutes River at Moody has been 93 per cent aver age for the water year just end ed. " Wickiup and Crane Prairie Reservoirs are somewhat short on carryover supplies for next sea son, but Crescent Lake Is in fine shape, Frost said. There may be some difficulty in filling Crane Prairie for this next season. Wa ter users served by Tumalo and Squaw Creeks had somewhat more than usual supply this year. Users served by the Plainview McCallister ditch had water up until mid-July, although the usual cutoff date is about July 1. Over the whole state, water sheds are extremely dry, but there is some dampness on top due to recent rains, Frost noted. Much above normal rainfall will be needed this fall to reprime Eastern Oregon watersheds. Representative of California killed in crash EUREKA. Calif. UPt The bodies of Rep. Clem Miller, D Calif., and two other persons were found today in the wreckage of the light plane in which they disappeared Sunday. The Humboldt County sheriff's office said the bodies were identi fied from papers they were carry ing. The plane wreckage had been sighted earlier in the day by search pilot in the mountains 30 miles east of Eureka. The pilot of the plane. George Head, and Head's 12-year-old son, Ronald, also died in the crash. A pilot spotted the wreckage from the air earlier. Two Bend hunters safe after being trapped in blizzard By Phil F.

It would be adequate for the pres ent population until today's ele mentary pupils finish high school. The bonds, for $700,000, would be retired over a 20-year period, the resulting tax decreasing each year. The first year, the cost would be 75 cents for each $1,000 of the true market value of real property. Polls will be open from 2 to 8 p.m. Voting places will be Bend Junior High, Kenwood School, Al len School, Young School and La Pine School. To vote on the bond Issue, a person must be a registered voter, a resident of the district for six months, and have been registered so days prior to the election (by Sept. 7.) Polling Places Voters will vote at the regular polling places for school elections. They are as follows: Junior High: Precincts 1, S, 4, 5, 10, 13 and 26. Kenwood School: Precincts 9, 7, 8, 11, 11A, 20 and 27. Allen School: Precincts 2, 2A, 9, 21, 21A, 23, 25, 32, 32A and 33. Young School: Precinct 12. LaPine School: Precinct 24. Serving on the election boards will be the following: Junior High: Mrs. A. W. West fall, Mrs. Jack Halbrook, Mrs. Wally Kremers, Mrs. Farley El liott and Mrs. Francis Dalrymple. Kenwood School: Mrs. Ray Le Blanc, Mrs. Byron Benson, Mrs. Phil Brogan, Mrs. Lowell HirUel and Mrs. Dick Asseln. Allen School: Mrs. Mildred Gel brich, Mrs. Bill Raper, Mrs. Dave Wilson, Mrs. Melvin Munkers and Mrs. Les Snyder. Beard Members Young School: Mrs. Walter Smead, Mrs. Bertil Nelson and Mrs. Bruce Dyer. LaPine: Mrs. Roy Larson, Mrs. Jack Neth and Mrs. Peter Zuerch er. : If the bond issue is passed, it is hoped that the new facilities will be ready for She start -of school next year. If the bond issue fails, there Is danger that the district will lose its state standardization accredit ation. This year, state support amounts to $528,000. Using that same figure, the loss would be $10,560,000 in a 20-year period, compared with the $700,000 for the bond issue. Supreme court accepts Bible reading case WASHINGTON (UPI) The Supreme Court agreed today to rule on the constitutionality of Bible reading in the public schools. The decisions are expected to provide far-reaching guideposts in the running controversy over the question of state vs. religion in American life. The justices accepted two chal lenges to Bible reading practices brought by parents in Pennsyl vania and Maryland. The Mary land case also involves recitation of the Lord's Prayer as part of school opening exercises. Acceptance of the two cases plunged the court into its new term on the same explosive note on which it adjourned last sum mer. At that time it held uncon stitutional the reading of a state written prayer in New York schools. The Maryland appeal was brought to the Supreme Court by Mrs. Madalyn E. Murray who de scribed herself and her son, Wil liam J. Murray HI, as atheists. William attends a Baltimore school. tion, result of the blinding storm.

THE BEND 59th Year Measure 9 gets backing of state GOP EUGENE (UPD-Oregon's Re publican State Central Committee took an informal stand in favor of revising legislative reapportion ment Saturday. The informal stand was due to lack of a quorum. But delegates from the 14 counties represented voted unanimously to support the November ballot measure that would distribute house seats on the basis of land area as well as population. The Republican position con trasted with a statement by Dem ocrat State Chairman E. D. Spen cer last week that the Democratic Party was taking a hands-off pol icy on reapportionment. Secretary of State Howell Ap pling Jr. expressed concern over the scanty attendance. He said it reflected "general apathy and general lack of interest in this election on the part of the people of Oregon." Dedication set on October 18 for new cutoff Twenty miles of newly-surfaced highway, the Clear Lake-Belknap Springs section of US 126, will be dedicated October 17 by the Oregon State Highway Com mission. This highway, which runs north and south near the summit of the Cascade Range, connects the San tiam and McKenzie Highways, providing an all-weather route be tween Eastern Oregon and the Upper Willamette Valley. Forrest Cooper, Oregon State Highway Engineer, said the dedi cation ceremonies would take place at 2:30 p.m. at Sahalie Falls, one mile south of Clear Lake. Glenn L. Jackson, chair man of the Highway Commis sion, will be the principal speak er. Also speaking will be Jack Dempsey, mayor of Bend, who will represent cities at both ends of the route, and Jack Maitland, president of the Springfield Cham ber of Commerce, who will repre sent civic groups of the area. Among invited guests will be city and county officials, state legis lators of Linn, Lane and Des chutes counties, and presidents of civic organizations. The Clear Lake Cutoff, as this highway is often called, is a U.S. Forest Highway that was built by the Bureau of Public Roads. The highway will become part of the Oregon State Highway System. Maintenance of the highway, in cluding keeping it plowed of snow and open for winter traffic, will be assumed by the Oregon State Highway Department. Municipal band meeting called The Bend Municipal Band, di rected by Norman Whitney, will reorganize for the coming year Wednesday night at a meeting on Die stage of the Senior High School auditorium, Darrcll Liska. president, has announced.

At times, the men had to assist each other in moving through the snow covered and rain soaked woods. To get into the Fall Creek ca bin, the men shot off the kick. They announced today they wish ad to make full reparation. Eight Pages Giants even series with 7-3 triumph NEW YORK (UPI) Chuck Hiller, 27, a slick fielder never noted as a power hitter, blasted a grand-slam home run in the seventh inning today to give the San Francisco Giants a 7-3 vic tory over the New York Yankees and deadlock and World Series at two games each. It was Uie first bases-loaded home run ever hit by Hiller in his major league career. The booming drive into the lower right field stands off Yankee relief ace Marshall Bridg es, coming with two out in the seventh just when it seemed the Yankees might escape from a dangerous situation, brought the Giants back from a one-game de ficit for the second time in this series. It also made ex-Yankee Don Larsen, now a Giant relief pitch er, the winning hurler against his old mates on the sixth anniver sary of the date in 1956 when he hurled a "perfect game" for the Yankees in the series against the then Brooklyn Dodgers. Rookie Tom Haller had given tho Giants a 2-0 lead in the sec ond inning with a two-run homer, but the Yankees matched that with a two-run rally in the sixth inning on two walks and two singles. The Giants added another run ii. the top of the ninth when Matty Alou reached, first on an infield single, took second on a sacrifice by pitcher Billy O'Dell, and scored as Richardson threw wildly to first on Hiller's grounder. The Yankees rallied for a vain run with two out in the ninth in ining on singles by Tony Kubek, Bobby Richardson, and Mike Tresh but Mickey Mantle hit into a forceout to end the game. The Giants started their game winning rally in the seventh against pitcher Jim Coates, who had replaced Whitey Ford after Ford went out for a pinch-hitter in the sixth. Jim Davenport walked and, aft er Haller struck out, pinch-hitter Matty Alou doubled to send Davenport to third. Bridges re lieved at that point and Inten tionally walked pinch-hitter Bob Nieman to load the bases. Bridges got dangerous Harvey Kucnn out on a pop fly for the second out.

BU DAILY NEWSPAPER court 'Programmed learning' New math teaching method tried here By Gerald Drapeau Bulletin Stiff Writer Always a hindering force in the teaching of mathematics is the slow-lo-grasp child, whose slack ened pace keeps other students from progressing at the rate they should. Officials at the junior high school think this problem may lie partially overcome in an experi mental program being tried for the first time with selected groups. Tho process is termed "pro grammed learning," which Is de signed to let each student absorb course particulars at his own rate of speed. Specifically, the system i consists oi a spirai-oouna worx- , . , . . . textbook with a cover aira moveaoie suae I ti'hioh mnrAnlc thai antmars In problems being worked. Each Pbl!m and answer unit is call- ed a "frame," and when the stu dent has solved that problem he moves the slide and checks the accuracy of his work. Immediate Confirmation Educationally, points out school Principal Ralph May, it is desir able to have immediate confirma tion of an answer whether it is right or wrong. If the answer is right, the student goes on to the next problem. If it is wrong, he By United Press International Dow Jones final stock averages 10 industrials 5H6.09. off 0.50; 20 railroads 116 38, up 0.02; 15 utili ties 119.92, up 1.01, and 65 stocks 204 28, up 0.34.

Work is administrated on tho honor sys tem but the student is made to realize ho can only cheat him self, since the teacher does not correct or grade his work. Then, periodically, the instruc tor departs from tho workbook system by administering standard individual tests to determine if review is necessary. May has emphasized that "pro grammed learning" experiments are being confined to mathema tics courses at present. Limitless Poitlbllltlet "But the possibilities are limit lesa," he explains. "It is perfect ly conceivable that "programmed learning" could later be applied in the teaching of other more flexible courses, even literature." Each student progresses at his own speed, but the teacher is con stantly supervising and encourag ing him to progress as swiltly as possible. Some studci.ts, (or in stance, may complete a mathe matics course in six months or even less. Others may take from one to two years to do the same amount of work. This way, slow moving students won't retard the speedier ones. If a student has not completed a course at the end of the school year he may continue from where he left off the following fall. It's even possible for a student to con tinue the course during a summer school session, complete the work, and be ready to start the next course when school resumes.

ETIN No. 258 Review plea by father of five refused WASHINGTON (UPI)- The Su preme Court refused today to re view a ruling which barred dis tribution of textbooks at publie expense to parochial schools In Oregon. The 1941 statute which allowed the distribution was found to vio late the state constitution by the Orogon Supreme Court in a 6 to 1 ruling on Nov. 15, 196L Today's brief order rejected a petition for review by Ivan B. . Carlson, father of five children who attend St. John The Apostle School in Oregon City. The case was started by three taxpayers in Clackamas County's, school district No. 62C William H. Dickman, Harold E. Salisbury and Lawrence Smelser. They sought to bar enforcement of the so-called "free textbook statute" on the ground that It provided an unconstitutional benefit to reli gious Institutions. The county court ruled against them but thoy won In the Oregon Supreme Court The stato court found the law violated the section of the state constitution which prohibits use of public money "for the benefit of any religious or theological Institution." ; Theory Reoctsd Tie state court rejected the "child benefit theory" which as serts that the expenditure was solely to meet the needs of the pupils, rather-than 'to 'aid -the schools. The opinion noted that SL John's school has received about $4,000 worth of textbooks in the past three years. Carlson's appeal assorted that withdrawal of the textbooks im posed an unfair burden on Catho lic parents who exercised their "religious right" to choooo a pa rochial school for their children. The stato court said it was "not unmindful of the fact that parents who send Uicir children to Catho lic schools must bear Uie double burden of supporting not only their own parochial schools but the public schools as well." "But the added burden is self Impoiod," Uie opinion said. "In struction in the public schools is available to all." The taxpayers in their reply did not oppose Supreme Court review of the case. But they noted that the high tribunal routinely skips issues decided on adequate state grounds. SALEM (UPI) Today's U.S. Supremo Court refusal to review a ruling which barred distribution of textbooks at public expense to parochial schools in Oregon clears tho way for the Oregon Supreme Court to put into effect its man date banning public textbooks for such schools. The order is cxectcd to arrive here in about a week. The Oregon high court will then send its man date to Clackamas County Circuit Court. Dr. Leon P. Minear, state su perintendent of public instruction, noted that the supplying of free public textbooks to parochial schools has been a matter ar ranged exclusively by local school boards. But he said that when he re ceives word Uiat Uie mandate is in effect, he will write local school officials throughout the slate to call their attention to Uie action. "I'm certain that local boards, knowing what Uie law is, will fol low the Supreme Court decision," he said.
