Budget Requirement Figures Established Bowling Tourney Results At the Budget Hearing prior to the School Board meeting Monday evening the budget committee established the budget requirement figure at $1,673,610. The amount outside the 6 percent limitation is $958,286. The budget reflects an in crease of $70,077 which is a 4.3 percent increase. The major increase is in salaries, $38,926, and retirement and social security, $22,000. All other sections of the budget shows an increase of $9,151. The amount of the tax levy is not clear due to the uncertainty of the Basic School Support Fund approp riations. The district vote on the budget will be April 2.

The same election boards that served in the serial levy election were named to serve at the budget election and again at the Board and Advisory committee members election on May 7. In the financial report, Mr. Daniels noted two areas that were running a little short. Due to the extra election called for with the serial levy, 141 of the 100 series Elections and Pub licity is running short with only $919.30 left.

There were 17 new blood donors. This was the year that Heppner High School students sponsored the drive. It is hoped that those new donors and many others will again plan to give blood when the bloodmobile visits Heppner on April 3. Human blood and the com ponents that modern medical science can process from it are becoming increasingly import ant to the practice of medicine. The American Red Cross Blood Program, which collects more than 3 million units of blood from volunteer donors each year, is the largest blood collection agency in the world. It supplies to hospitals and physicians about half of all the blood and blood products used in the United States today. The blood is collected through 59 regional blood centers, each u-ith hlnodmobiles that travel throughout a w ide surrounding area. The collected blood is then processed for transfusion or made into specific components to meet the requirements of the patient. Because blood and component therapy must keep abreast of medical progress a continuous program of research is carried on with three coals in mind : To discover new and useful blood products, to improve In imnrnvf nrpsent blood comDonents and to find ways to lower the cost of production. Mr. and Mrs. Kevin Bell of Portland were here this week- end visiting Mr. and Mrs. Elvyn Bel!
