i HEPPNER GAZETTE-TIMES, Thursday, October 24, 1963 Meeting Proposes Return to Joint Fair and Rodeo (Continued from Pae;e 1) The committee will meet to write the by-laws for the rodeo and fair committees and will submit them to the fair board at its December meeting. The fair board will have authority to pass, reject or amend the by laws before they are adopted because the committees are re sponsible to it. The fair board, in turn, is responsible to the county court. As now established the fair board meets on the third Tues day of each month in the Gil liam and Bisbee building at 1:45. and the meetings are open to the - public. Cutsforth pointed out to the group that the fair board "does not want any part of running the rodeo," preferring to leave the matter entirely to the rodeo board. Bernard Doherty, third mem ber of the fair board, said that there had been "considerable' pressure" for some changes to be made on the organization of the rodeo board and that was one of the major purposes of the Monday meeting. Chairman Jones of the rodeo board said that he doesn't object to anyone nominating members of the board but added, "we need men who can work together." I The fair board did not act on ' the suggestion that the fair and rodeo return to the old plan of being held in the same week, but Chairman Fetsch said that the matter will be investigated and it will be discussed at a later meeting. Problems in con nection with obtaining stock for a different dale than the usual Labor Day week-end for the ro deo were brought up by Jones. Conflict with other events in the area and around the state may also cause some difficulty However, it was generally felt that these matters can be worked out after study. The fair and rodeo were sen arated three years ago and in 1961, 19G2 and 1963 were held on succeeding weeks with the fair coming first. One proposal for the combined week was that the fair be held from Monday through Thursday with the rodeo slated for Jriday night, Satur day and Sunday. Attending the meeting were: Fetsch, Cutsforth and Doherty, of the fair board: Don Robinson and Mrs. Jim Lindsay of the fair committee: Jones, French, Slier man and Gerald Swaggart of the rodeo board; Mrs. Glenn Smith, secretary of the fair board; Bert Huff, secretary of the rodeo board; Joe Hay, county exten sion agent; Vern Evans, Bill Scott, Art Vance, Jack Loyd, Daly, Bill Healy, Barclay, Erwin, Rod Murray, Miller, Mrs, E. M. Baker, and Cornett Green. Tax Defeat Effect Still Guess Here Effect on Morrow county of the defeat of Measure No. 1 in the special state election October 15 remained unknown here this week. Much depends on what ac tion the legislature takes at its special session commencing No vember 11. Estimates have been made that this county will lose some where between $16,0(X) and $21, 000 In basic school support funds if a cut approximating 12 is mado by the legislature, or by the governor should the legis lators Impower him to make the cut. However, Superintendent Wayne Brubacher of the Mor row County schools said, 'There are a lot of unknowns. We'll have to wait and see what the legislature does." He said that the board of di rectors might discuss it at their next meeting, although it will fall on November 12, just one day after the legislature con venes. Other agencies who look to state funds were also uncertain about what cuts will take place that will affect them. N. C. An derson, county agent, said that some of the better men of the state extension service are leav ing as a result of the require ment that pay raises authorized months ago be cancelled and the old pay scale be re-instated. Also, personnel in the extension service are being asked to take annual leaves of from one to eight weeks without pay. Apparently all throe of the Morrow county agents will re main here despite the pre diction prediction that 64 would be cut from the extension staff around the state. School Water Line Pipe Bids Sought Call for bids by the City of Heppner on approximately 1150 feet of 4 and 6-inch steel pipe and lutings was issued by Ted Smith, city recorder, this week. The pipe is to bo used in con struction of water lines to bolster supply to the new Heppner High school. Two lour inch mains, one coming up the hill via Morgan street and another tieing in with another existing main farther north, will feed a 6-inch main running in lront of the high school building, thus providing a circulatory system. Two fire hydrants will be lo cated on the six-inch main, one at each end, Only present supply is via a 3-inch main serving the school and the only fire hydrant is some distance away at the Morgan street extension. i Councilman John Pfeiffer heads a city committee working on the matter and a school board committee is composed of Direc tors Howard Cleveland. Ken Batty and Andy Van Schoiack. The committees are working out a cost-sharing plan. Supt. Wayne Brubacher said that between now and next spring the directors and admin istration will study the best and most economical way to extend water to the athletic field be hind the school. At the present time they are consulting ihe county agent on advice about how to hold the bare slope area, caused by excavation, through the winter, whether to sow seed for cover to prevent erosion yet this fall, to mulch or take other action. Whether the pipeline to Ihe school can be completed before winter is an uncertainly. The call for bids, printed in this paper, must be advertised tor two weeks after which it may take some time for delivery of the pipe. In the meantime, 15 new fire extinguishers have been added to others in the new school building.
