I -Israel informed the U.N. Satur day that substantial numbers of Israeli troops have been . with drawn from Egypt and now arc back on Israeli territory. This word was transmitted to Secretary General Dag Hammar- skjold as the 79-natinn General Assembly pressed toward a vote! on a new demand that Britain, France and Israel withdraw all 1 their forces immediately from Egypt. This was the first report that any Israeli troops actually had left Egyptian soil. An earlier re port said only 'hit Israeli forces had withdrawn by varying dis tances along the Sinai front. The Israeli note said: "Considerable bodies of Israeli troops and equipment which were In Sinai on Nov, I are now hack in Israeli territory. Figures will be published In due course." Despite the strong clamor for the withdrawal of all invading forces. Britain. France and Israel indicated they would hold up their final withdrawals until they arc fully satisfied thai Ihe U.N. emer gency forre is capable of fulfilling Its assigned tasks. U.S. Delegate Henry Cabot Lodgo Jr. ioined In the demand that the three countries get Ihcir forces out of ICg.n without con ditions.

Post, low bidders, should go into an immediate huddle and endeavor to eliminate all possible items from the two structures. Three Tender Bids Three firms tendered bids for the two structures at the Friday meeting. All are from Salem. Vi esko and Post's figures were $1, 347,368 for Waldo and $1,386,872 for Judson. They offered to build both for $2,716,260 a figure that is approximately $400,000 more than the directors had hoped for. Last spring the voters authorized a bond issue of $2,900,000. Of this amount approximately $100,000 has been allocated for construction of a new music wing at North Salem high. May Eliminate Rooms There is a possibility of reducing the combined cost of the two build ings by taking advantage of two alternates. These alternates call for the elimination of a bank of five class rooms at each structure, which would pare the over all ex pense by approximately $150,000. The cost per square foot is ap proximately $14. However, Archi tect Williams -pointed out that a charge of about $25,000 for con struction of a sewage field at Hud son and $2,245 for laying a sewer line at Waldo could not properly be assessed against building costs. Other bids submitted consisted of one for Waldo by E. E. Batter- man, $1,399,500. Robert D. Morrow offered to build Judson for $1,431,. 491. Asks About Holding One In reply to a question by Di rector Gus .Moore, as to whether one- of the buildings could be elimi nated at- this time, Supt. Charles Schmidt replied that it would mean double-shifting (or the area left un provided for. Such a situation would cause ill-feeling, he said. It is estimated that equipment for each building will add $120.- 000 to the cost. However this item wi probably be incorporated in the 1957-58 budget since it is not a proper charge against building cosls. The board will meet with the architect and contractors at 7:30 next Wednesday night when it is hoped a final decision can be reached. Woman Killed In Car Wreck BEND if An automobile swerved off U. S.
