PNB filed tariff changes with M adras’ request to join District the Oregon Public Utility Com 2AA. O.S. A. A. is concerned on how the proposed move would missioner May 14. affect both the current league and the league Madras is propos ingto move to. One of the crite ria is to poll both leagues. Another criteria is to consider the proximity of schools in the leagues. The Dalles is requesting to be moved to District 2ÀA, ,or be allowed to remain in- AAA sta tus. Don Hopps also reported that athletic directors in Dis- trict 2 AA would not be opposed to scheduling Friday/Saturday e v e n ts in s te a d o f M o n day/Thursday or Tuesday ^Fri day games. Mr. Dmytryk stated that LaPine is considering action to remain in the class A status. Crook County is requesting, to stay in the class' AAA status. Final decisions by O.S. A.À. will be made after October 15th, when O.S. A. A. has the average daily membership figures. Don Hopps stated that one of the selling points in request ing permission to join District 2AA is that Madras is in Cen tral Oregon, not Eastern Oregon. . Another vantage point is that even if the roads over Mt. Hood Were bad, the students coUld be transported through The Dalles and it would still be a consider able reduction of mileage. It was the Board’s consensus that the administration take all possible steps in trying td jo in District 2AA. Mr. Hopps is working on a hand-out that will show the Board the difference in mileage between District 2AA and 7AA. The only concern that the administration has at the present time would be the loss of school time if District 2AA decided to continue the practice of Monday/Thursday and Tuesday/ Friday games. The Board asked the administration to gather all the information they could regarding this issue. The high school will give an up dated report at a future school . board meeting.
