to hold classes In church base

seemed the best possible solu

Kvcn the addition of these
four rooms did not provide all

Thus the health of all children
i. the HenDner schools is aavers-
ely affected by the lack of use
of the multi purpose room as
originally Intended.
The crowded conditions in
Heppner are the result of In
creased pupil load, thougn u
mav have been aggravated oy
Idatlon. The children are
here now, and there is no letup
in Kiaht: exrjectatlons are lor
more first graders next year than
ihu venr. The increase, accord
ing to school authorities, can be
expected to continue
iiAnnner elementary school
was completed in 1956 at a cost
of $258,000 and was tnougnr i
thir time to nrovlde ample class
room space for many years to
mo That such has not Deen
la the fault of no one,
as contributing factors could not
be determined at the time oi
construction. The present school
hoard has started construction of

school site west of Heppner, to
rnro of students next year.

a civ room unit was planned out
of the $130,000 Included as the
first vear of a special rour-year
levy for building purposes pass
nA lnsr vear. Bv this spring
school authorities realized that
six rooms would not provide the
necessary space, and they ar
ranged to complete the six rooms
and build the shell oi two more
rooms for the budgeted $130,000
The 1961-62 school Duagei in
oi,int smooo to finish the in
side of these two rooms, making

The budget was rejected at the
polls by county taxpayers ana

two rooms. Construction nas al
ready started.
Voting on the budget will take
place throughout the county-
district Friday, May iv

he's still the same modeat fel

At the last PTA meeting.
Fuzzy made a point of getting
together with some new teach
ers. One of them, a lady with
some strong ideas about edu
cation claimed that none of the
others had gone to the right
college hers.
"Well, Miss, that Isn't ao
bad," Fuzzy told her. "One of
our board members didn't even
go to high school, let alone
college." "So! Who?- she said.
"Me." he said.
From where I sit, some of as

the American way. Our her
itace of freedom Implies the
