Wine Duncan, candidate
fur Smte Superintendent (if
Public Instruction, told Hepp
neroes during a visit here
Monday, that While we have
ifk' fyit'i education system in
the vfofld, we still are falling
short of our goals "
Duncan said that "improve
ment of instruction in the
basic skills 4f reading and
mathematics should be given
top priority. These basic skills
are the foundation upon which
every other learning experi
ence is built ."
Duncan also supports a
varied educational program
geared to meeting individual
needs of every child through a
wide range of enrichment,
career oriented, and academ
ic experiences.
"We must prepare our
students for a world of change
and challenge." according to
Duncan. "We must' become a
nation of life-long learners."

who were working in the
garden when the fire was
detected. He tried to curb the
spread of the fire with a
garden hose while Mrs. Du
Pont sought help from the
neighbors.
Kit e assistance was hard to
gel because the DuPont home
was outside the lone fire
protection limits, and calls to
ranchers in the area brought
no relief because farmers had
drained the water from their
pumpers in preparation for
the winter months.
Three pumpers finally did
arrive, but not in lime to save
the house. The only parts
standing is the chimney and
walls of the root cellar.
The DuPont s saved their
clothing, but all their other
possessions were lost in the
blaze.
also concerned about the
problems of financing public
education. While he feels that
property taxes must be reduc
ed and 'he state should
assume between 50 and 75 per
cent of the school funding
responsibility, he emphasizes
incorporating better business
management practices to get
more value from education
dollars.
"In these days of rising
Cos's it would be foolish to say
we could cut the cost of
education, but I do believe we
can. and must, get more for
our money. Cooperative pur
chasing, increased building
utilization, investment of sur
plus funds, and long-range
planning are only a few of the
methods that could be used to
increase our efficiency. Skill
ful use of our funds can
produce many more benefits
for students without adding to
our tax burden." he said.
