Typing I and II, Spanish II, (Continued from page 1) he had seen several problems that he thought legislative ac tion could attack. He emphasized one solution. He said he would seek copoeration with the State Motor Vehicles Department to have a picture of every licensed driver appear on his driver's li cense. He said this would make It much easier for the Liquor Commission to combat the prob lem of liquor being sold to min ors. Speaking of the economy of this legislative district, Buch anan said, "As a farmer I know that agriculture is the broad base of our economy. I want to do all that I can to streng then that base. But at the same time I realize that our region must bo further industrialized as rapidly as possible to lessen the heavy tax load that agri culture carries."

Cleveland said that he was ad vised that changes in the pro posed heating system could re sult in a considerable savine. Another type system that would eliminate much duct work was proposed. The architect is now working on revised plans and will submit a preliminary plan to the board for consideration soon. Melby Presents Case Arnold Melby, band director in the Heppner schools, appeared before the board after writing the directors a letter asking that he be advanced a step on the salary schedule because of qual- ltylng work that was completed late last year. The system has a policy that every teacher must earn nine credit hours every five years to advance on the salary schedule. Melby said that extra work assigned him at lone last year prevented him from taking a course during the school year, and he was unable to take the work during the summer because of the illness of his wife. He said, however, that he took a course at Hermiston in the fall that required 900 miles of driv ing and considerable cost. His plea was that the board should grant the extra step on the schedule to be retroactive to the start of the current school year. Melby now receives $7889 per year, and the additional step would provide $325 more. In addition, Melby said that the board in 1962 adopted a merit pay plan for teachers with qual ifications beyond the masters de gree that would allow $150 in creases per year for those with 45 hours beyond the masters de gree. He said that he received an initial $150 Increase but did not receive the authorized additional $150 for the current year. The board in its executive ses sion denied his first request on the grounds that credit hours must be earned before the start of the school year. Considerable confusion seem ed appraent among the direc tors on the merit pay point, and Supt. Wayne Brubacher said that he is having difficulty interpre ting the rule set by the board in 1962, saying that it is worded in sucn a manner that it can be interpreted in several ways Chairman Morgan said that he would name a committee to study the matter and work out an interpretation of the merit pay plan. Rental Plan Aid Asked Bob Rietmann of the lone ad visory board reported to the di rectors that the textbook rental program at lone has a deficit of $1100 and has been borrowing from student body funds. If it were not for the deficit, he said, the student body funds would have a balance of about the same amount $1100. He asked the board for $750 for the student body funds un til the textbook rental plan could catch up. Attorney Bob Abrams, however, said that it would be illegal for the board to take this action on the grounds that it cannot supply the textbooks in the high school, and though it would be loaning to the student body, any action that is illegal directly is also ill egal when it is done indirectly The board decided to study the matter further. House Disposal Talked The George property came up for discussion again, and it was affirmed that the district should not sell the property, but should consider disposal of the George house. A committee, composed of Andy Van Schoiack, Ken Batty, and Howard Cleveland, was ap pointed by Chairman Morgan to decide what steps might be ta ken. Civil Defense Course Set Supt. Wayne Brubacher asked the board to consider a Civil Defense proposal to offer a 12 class hour course for senoir high school students on Civil Defense in order that students might be given an understanding of CD work. Instructors giving the course would be taken from the system for two days training. Friday and Saturday. They would receive pay from the Federal government for the Saturday work, and on the Friday the district would need to provide substitute teachers for them. Supt. Brubacher suggested that Heppner might serve as the training center for Morrow coun- Early American and Modern Tuckaway Sofa Beds and Plastic Davenos AND RECLINERS At Popular Low Prices COMPLETE FLOOR COVERING AND HEATING SALES AND SERVICE M&R COMPANY 278 N.

There would be no ex pense to the district. The board approved the plan. Committee Plan Okayed A plan to form committees composed of advisory members, district superintendent and school board members on buildings and riculum and education was ap proved by the board.

Advisory boards will be asked to appoint their members to these committees. Need a special kind of en velope for a special purpose? See your authorized Mail-Well En velope dealer, the Gazette-Times.
