School Directors
Approve Purchase
(Continued from page 1)
Principal Ron Daniels of River
side said that Talbott had been
advised that he would be allow
ed mileage for the daily trip
to Irrigon, but the board de
cided that it should not be paid
unless he were on a split sched
ule.
A motion was made by Direc
tor Harvey Warner that the mile
age be paid to the present date
and during basketball season
but not at other times when Tal
oott is teaching only at one
school.
Policy Definition Asked
Daniels then asked the board
to define its policies so that ad
ministrators would know what
course to pursue. He said that
this apparent confusion comes
from conflict of policy of the
"old" board versus the policy of
the "new" board.
"If we have to come to the
board with every little thing, it
will take a lot more meetings
than this one," he said.
Considerable objection was
raised by some of the directors,
particularly Van Schoiack, on
the "generaltities" used by per
sonnel of the district in sub
mitting bills for mileage. He
proposed that when vehicles of
the county are used for purposes
other than regular runs, a ticket
should be filled out stating the
purpose of the trip, where the
trip was taken, the number of
miles traveled and who made
the trip in the vehicle.
The board settled the matter
of activity buses by approving
a motion made by Director Irvin
Raueh that the district author
izes use of activity buses if par
ents pay operating costs. This
would include providing a li
censed driver and paying for
cas and oil. Involved are the
activity bus from Heppner to
Lexington, one from lone to the
southwest, and possibly one
from lone to Cecil. The action
does not apply to a bus now used
between Irrigon and Boardman.
Lexington residents had petition
ed for an activity bus at the
last meeting of the board.
Sketches Completed
Supt. Brubacher said that pre
liminary architects' sket c h e s
have been received on finish
ing the Heppner High school
music rooms and for a shop un
der the building where a large
excavation was made. Chairman
Milton Morgan was directed to
appoint a committee to work on
plans for the improvements with
a view towards speeding action
on the matter. He did not an
nounce members of the com
mittee. Report was made no progress
towards bringing additi o n a 1
water supply to Heppner High
school. City Councilman Clarence
Rosewall was present to discuss
the city's proposals with the di
rectors. No final decision was
taken, but Chairman Morgan ap
pointed Directors Howard Cleve
land, Kenneth Batty and Van
Schoiack to work with the city
council committee, and they
were given power to act on be
half of the board.
Pine City Sale Talked
Disposition of Pine City school
property brought some discussion
at the meeting. At the Septem
ber meeting a bill of more than
$300 was approved for plumbing
work in connection with the old
school building, It rents for $Z5
per month as a residence. The
board felt that the property
should be disposed of and passed
a motion to put it up for sale
on bids, including the 2.23 acres
of grounds on which the build
ing is located.
However, Fred Martin, former
director, sitting in on the meet
ing as a spectator, said that lie
recalled that the board had
planned to dispose of it some
time ago but learned that in
such an instance the deed re
quired that it revert to the orig
inal property owners or heirs. At
torney Bob Abrams was asked
to check into the matter.
Fair Board Meet
To Talk Changes
Morrow county's fair board
has called a special meeting,
with the public invited, for Mon
day, October 21, at 7:30 p.m. in
the conference room on the sec
ond floor of the Gilliam and
Bisbee building.
One purpose of the meeting
will be to consider the possibility
of holding the fair and rodeo
at the same time in 196-1. Con.
sidornble sentiment has been
expressed in favor of holding the

Another purpose will be to
consider the matter of by-laws
on election of rodeo board mem
bers, according to Bernard Do
herty, member of the fair board.
