He likes hunting and fishing: $78,0o0.29 as unappropriated cash. At the end of the 1970-71 school year the actual cash bal ance was $153,711.28. In the 1971-72 budget $-10,000 was budgeted as cash carryover and $113,711.28 as unappropriated cash. Pcry Bode According to the unofficial j figures the School District would be required to refund to the Veteran's Affairs In 1909, $20, KS7.80 plus 6 interest for 2 Mi years $.12X.VM, for a total of $21,173.61. The 1970 year: refund $35.. 700.80 with 6 Interest for 14 years $3,3t;9.13 for a total of $10,009.99. The 1971 year: re fund $38,820.73. Interest at 6 for 'i veur $1,101.89 for a to tul of $39,991.62. Total refund for the three years: $90,418.39, total interest $7,819.83 for a total of it-fund of $101,238.22. The unappropriated cash of $113,711.28 subtract the total refund of $101,238.22 leaves a balance of $9,473.06. Mr. Daniels emphasized that these figures are totally unof ficial and arc based strictly on unofficial figures obtained from the County Assessor's office. The interest figure Is purely conject ure as no word has been re ceived on Interest. Mr. Daniels with his admin istrators are examining the budget Items remaining in this year. Every effort will be made to trim expenses to bring up the cash balance. The Budget Committee has been aware of possibly having to make this repayment to the Veterans Affairs. As a result they have permitted the unap proprlated cash balance to reach a figure that would cover a high percentage of the pos sible refund. Normally a 4 to 5 cash car ryover Is maintained in the school budget. ' This precludes undue borrowing and resulting Interest payments.' in- 1.44ii bu.

REMEMBER Heppner Elks Annual and 75th Anniversary Saturday, Feb. 19 Snow Survey Record Broken Dale Boner and Don Bellamy made the snow survey Monday at the Arbuckle Snow Course. Snow measured 49 Inches deep with 17 inches of water con tent. In 1971 there was 26.4 inches of snow and 8 Inches of water. The 1953 to 1967 average wa ter content has been 7.2 inches Maximum water content previ ously for this time of year was 14.2 inches in 1937.
